Using Computers and the Internet in Schools

Nowadays, computers and the Internet are very important in schools. They help students learn in new and exciting ways. Here is a closer look at how schools are using technology to help students.

    1    

In many classrooms, every student has a computer or a tablet. They use these devices to look up information quickly and to learn about new topics. For example, if they are studying about the rainforest, they can watch videos, read articles, and even take virtual tours of rainforests around the world. This makes learning more fun and interesting.

    2    

Teachers are now using special programs on their computers to make learning more fun. They can create quizzes that students take on their tablets. These quizzes give instant feedback, so students know right away what they got right and what they need to study more. Teachers can also find games and activities online that match what they are teaching in class. This way, students can practice math, spelling, and other subjects in a way that feels like playing.

    3    

Homework and projects are also changing because of technology. Students can now work on group projects without having to be in the same room. They use online tools to share documents, create presentations, and talk about their ideas. This helps them learn how to work with others, even when they are not together. Teachers can check on their progress easily and give advice or help when needed.

A. Learning with Videos and Articles
B. Working Together While Apart
C. Learning While Having Fun
D. Having Fun in Playing Online

Forests are like a big, green blanket that covers the Earth.     1     They help clean the air and give us fresh oxygen. Forests are home to many animals and plants, making them very special places on our planet.

Imagine forests as huge gardens that take in bad air and change it into good air for us to breathe. They are very important because they are home to more than half of all the animals and plants we know.     2     This makes forests very important for keeping our Earth healthy and full of life     3     森林覆盖了地球陆地的三分之一。 They are found all around the world, from hot, wet rainforests to cold. snowy forests. Each forest has its own types of trees, plants, and animals that cannot live anywhere else.

But, forests are in danger because of cutting down trees and clearing land for farms or buildings.     4     这对动物、植物甚至我们都是有害的。 We need to take care of forests because they help keep our air clean and give us water and food.

In short, forests are very important for our planet. They help keep the air clean, are homes to many animals and plants, and make Earth a beautiful place.     5     We should all help protect forests so they can keep being the Earth’s green blanket.

7 . Imagine you’re in a sci-fi (科幻小说) world, and you video-call your friends. You might see them in a three-dimensional(3D) way or in holograms (全息影像). Although this isn’t possible in real life yet, researchers recently made holograms easier to create, said a new study.

To take a 3D photo of a person, most hologram technologies need special cameras. They record how the person looks from different angles under different lights. This information makes the hologram look lifelike. However, holograms can’t be widely used because they are difficult to make.

The researchers from Chiba University in Japan made a new computer program. It can turn normal pictures we take into 3D holograms.

Their program used a technology called deep neural networks (深度神经网络). First, it receives information from an image taken by a normal camera. It then predicts the depth of things in the image. For example, in a 3D photo, the background should be deeper than the person.

With all the information, the program creates a 3D hologram. But it can look strange at first. The program will then check the hologram to fix problems and make it look more real.

The program can be used to create holograms in VR headsets (头显设备). For example, a user sends a picture, and the other user can see the “real” look of it in 3D. If it’s used in cars, drivers can see information, such as road signs, in 3D. This makes it easier for the drivers to see and thus makes sure that they won’t miss important information.

In the future, when holograms become more common, they can also help doctors. Medical students can learn quickly by looking at 3D images of the human body, and doctors can better understand a patient’s illness.

1. What does the new program make use of to create a hologram?

A．A normal picture.	B．A special camera.
C．Recordings from different angles.	D．Recordings under different lights.

2. Compared to the traditional technologies, the new program is ______.

A．more natural

B．more expensive

C．easier

D．more predictable

3. How might holograms in cars benefit drivers?

A．They make driving more enjoyable.

B．Drivers will find road information easily.

C．They will help predict dangers and traffic.

D．Drivers needn’t mind the cars behind.

4. What does the last paragraph tell us?

A．Doctors make no mistakes with holograms.

B．Patients won’t suffer with holograms.

C．We can live in a 3D world.

D．Holograms might be used in the medical field.
