【解析】

本文是一则对话，双方讨论纸质书籍和在线阅读的使用，纸质书有它们的优点，而在线阅读有它的缺点。

1.

根据上文中“There’s something wrong with my computer.”和下文中“Sure”可知，我的电脑出问题了，此处在询问能不能使用你的，所以使用Can I use yours?我能使用你的吗？故选G。

2.

根据上文中“What will you use it to do?”可知，此处询问你用电脑做什么，所以使用I’ll use it to read a book.我要用它去读书。故选A。

3.

根据下文中“Last year.”可知，此处是询问开始在线阅读的时间，所以使用When did you begin to read online?你什么时候开始在线阅读的？故选D。

4.

根据下文中Yes可知，此处应使用一般疑问句；结合下文中“But paper books are still used much more.”可知，但是纸质书仍然被广泛使用，结合选项可知，此处使用Do you only use online books in your class?询问对方是否只是在上课时使用在线书籍。故选E。

5.

根据下文中“It’s hard to say. Paper books have their advantages, and reading online has its disadvantages.”可知，此处是询问将来纸质书的使用量是否会更少，这很难说，因为纸质书有它们的优点，而在线阅读有它的缺点，所以此处使用Will paper books be used less in the future?故选B。
