Question

Imagine a classroom missing the one thing that has long been considered a necessary part to reading and writing? No paper，no books，no test paper．Nor are there any pencils or pens which always seem to run out of ink at the important moment．

A "paperless classroom" is what more and more schools are trying to achieve．Students don't do any handwriting in this class． Instead，they use hand-sized or specially-designed computers．The teacher downloads information from Internet libraries and sends them to every student's personal computer．

Having computers also means that students can use the Web．They can look up information on any subject they're studying from math to social science．High school teacher Judy Herrell in Florida，US，described how her class used the Web to learn about what's going on in the world．

"We could touch every side of the country through different sites from the forest to refugee（难民） camps，" she said．"Using a book that's three or four years old is impossible " And exams can go online too．At a high school in Tennessee，US，students take tests on their own computers．The teacher records the grades on the network for everyone to see and then copies them to his own grade book on the Internet．

A paperless classroom is a big step towards reducing the waste of paper．High school teacher Stephanie Sorrell in Kentucky，US，said she used to give about900 pieces of paper each week to each student．

"Think about the money and trees we could save with the computers，" she said．But，with all this technology，there's always the risk that the machines will break down．So，paper books are still widely available for these hi-tech students．

【解析】

试题分析：短文大意：该篇短文对无纸化课堂进行了介绍，同时给我们展现了无纸化课堂的好处。无纸教室，是减少纸张浪费方面的一个大进步。不过，在停电或有技术问题的情况下，对这些高技术的学生来说，纸质教科书依然是广泛适用的。

1.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中A "paperless classroom" is what more and more schools are trying to achieve．Students don't do any handwriting in this class． Instead，they use hand-sized or specially-designed computers．可知无纸化课堂必须有电脑，所以该选B。

2.D 细节理解题。根据第二段断尾及We could touch every side of the country through different sites from the forest to refugee camps,可知举这个例子是说明网站比书本好，因为书本不可能用三四年，而且它还能够得到最新的，最全面的信息，故选D。

3.细节理解题。根据最后一段But，with all this technology，there's always the risk that the machines will break down．So，paper books are still widely available for these hi-tech students．的描述可知不过，虽然有这一技术，也总是有机器会出故障的风险。所以，在停电或有技术问题的情况下，对这些（掌握）高技术的学生来说，纸质教科书依然是广泛适用的。所以该选C。
