Answer 1

答案：1．C;2．D;3．A;4．D;5．B;
解析：

(1)	細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容可知，若要上網(wǎng)首先須有一部電話。
(2)	由第三段中“You can send electronic messages or ‘e-mails’ to your friends(as long as they’re on the Internet, too)”一句話，可得出答案為D項。
(3)	第四段中說到使用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)并不一定知道它的工作原理，但如果了解一些基礎(chǔ)知識，掌握一些網(wǎng)絡(luò)技術(shù)是有好處的。
(4)	由倒數(shù)第二段中“If you connect your computer with the telephone system it can…”可知，只要有幾臺計算機(jī)連在網(wǎng)上就可以收發(fā)信息。
(5)	由最后一段可知，人們認(rèn)為可能有6000萬人在上網(wǎng)，則你很可能成為第6千萬零1個上網(wǎng)者。
