第一节 阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

（A）

At Beijing's Haite Garden Primary School, pupils pore over their work, concentrating on sums and language learning. However, they are not reading in textbooks, but on the screens of tablet computers linked to a wireless network. The school recently became one of a handful of schools in the capital to take this plunge. The tablet roll-out is a trial designed to discover new ways to inspire children to learn, according to school head Wu Youying.

As a trial site, the school has encountered various teething troubles with the project -- including difficulties in network instability, shortage of e-textbook resources and limitations with charging the devices. More resources are turning up, though.

Li Jiangnan, a teacher with the school, explains that students use the tablets in three classes -- Chinese, math and English. In Li's class, students follow the teacher's guidance on drawing Chinese characters on their touchscreens. If correct, the strokes turn red, while incorrect ones remain their original color, turning the dull writing practice into a vivid online game.

However, not everyone is convinced. Netizens have expressed concerns that electric screens may harm children's eyesight. The authorities should study whether using tablets would have this impact, and that it is irresponsible for the government to take action without such due diligence, according to a post by Internet user Wang Jiafu.

Parents also fretted that the youngsters, lacking self control, will log onto instant messaging tools or games as soon as their teachers' backs are turned. "Allowing pupils unlimited access to the Internet is likely to distract their attentions as well as deprive them of imagination," said one parent on condition of anonymity.

Education expert Liu Yongming, notes Beijing's attempt to incorporate high technology into traditional classes follows current worldwide teaching trends. "We should treat the tablet as a supportive tool because the essence of education lies in learning and thinking through reading and writing, and this should not be shattered and changed," Liu adds.
