　　Online Education

　　Being online is no longer something strange in our life.

　　To some degree, it has become part of our daily life. We can do a lot of things online, such as searching for information and communicating with friends far and near. But recently another helpful online activity has become very "in". That is online education.

　　Why could online education be so popular within such a short period of time? Among all the reasons, the quick development of the internet should be the essential one, which makes our dreams of attending class in the distance possible. Another underlying reason is the quick development of both society and technology. Today, modern science and technology are developing at lightening speed. To catch up with the development we all feel an urgent and strong desire to study. However, due to the great pace of modern society, many people are too busy to study full time at school. Online education just comes to their aid.

　　Personally, I appreciate this new form of education. It’s indeed a helpful complement to the traditional education system. It can provide different learners with more flexible and versatile ways of learning. Most of all, with online education, we can absorb the latest knowledge while working.

　　Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)

　　1. Y 本文的六个小标题正是对书名中“6 Glasess”的具体阐释，由此可知题干表述正确。

　　2. Y 根据题干中的fermenting beer推知答案可能在小标题beer下。再根据The ancient Sumerians定位原文，从首句即可知题干表述正确。

　　3. N 根据上题的解题思路，继续留意讲Beer的那些段落，在末尾发现...and it was then as well，可知题干表述错误。

　　4. N 由题干中的wine推知答案在同名小标题下的段落中。其中第二段明确指出最初品尝红酒的是Paleolithic humans，可知题干表述错误。

　　5. Y 题干中既出现了beer又出现了wine，两事物的比较一般在介绍完两事物后给出，本文讲出beer再讲wine，故先在标题Wine下的段落寻找答案。定位发现题干信息与原文相符，是正确的。阅读中要留心事物间的比较。

　　6. N 本题是对tea和rum的一种比较，rum属于spirits，所以答案在Spirits或Tea标题下的内容中。根据题干中的Britain’s American colonies定位原文发现Spirits下第三段明确提到Standage also suggests that rum may have been more responsible than tea...，可知题干表述错误。

　　7. NG 根据题干中的信息词coffee定位原文有关coffee的段落，发现Standage并未做出与题干所述相关的评论。

　　8. the Arab world。根据题干中的信息词around the 15th century定位原文有关coffee的段落，可找到答案。
