Cyberlove
① Thanks to the late 20th century technology, Maria of Denmark and Martijin of Holland met on a chatline. For months they've talked and sent letters to each other?with the help of their computers as they?found themselves falling head over heels in love. It was then that?they decided to meet in the real, not only the virtual, world. It was not easy to arrange as the young man and his lady were separated by 700 very real kilometers, but the date was a success and Maria and Martijn have been living together happily?ever since. They've created a home page to let the world know how they've found?happiness?via?the Internet and introduce couples who've met?under similar circumstances.
② Throughout history men and women had used?a variety of means?to find each other. Internet romance, according to some, is a bizarre method, and to others it is a natural way for?the 90's?to meet?potential mates.
③ Romances formed on the internet?follow a characteristic script.?The development of emotional intimacy is a long process, sometimes taking several months. \"Love at?first byte\" is rare although there are examples. (1)The initial light exchanges, whether by e-mail or in chat rooms, are generally followed by increasingly self-revealing topics, and then after a while, the two strangers perceive each other as a true friend.?Hearts open and an avalanche of e-mail
crosses cyberspace carrying literary quality, and electronic messages are even enhanced with
verses and virtual gifts (flowers, kisses, animated pictures). Could any heart with romantic inclinations resist? (2)When you reach for the mouse with sweaty palms and butterflies in the stomach to look in the in-box for new mail - there's just no way to escape the fact - love has arrived.
④ How does a cyber romance vary from a real life romance? Perhaps one significant difference is that communication plays such a large part. Words that convey feelings have enormous effect. (3)While before a real date we fix our hair and our clothes, on the internet we polish our intellect, imagination and personality.?(4)In essence, the sequence is reversed - first we show our inner beauty and only after it had won victory does the veil fall off the physical vehicle of that personality at the time of that first meeting in person.
⑤ It is a popular topic in cyberspace to debate whether or not true love can develop merely on an?intellectual level（智力方面，精神方面，即\"精神恋爱\"）, without physical attraction or the?familiarity?of the other's appearance? (5)To put it another way: is the physical appearance of the man or woman play a part in the relationship if, through the exchange of thoughts and feelings, they already fell in love?
本部分重点及难点：
1. The initial light exchanges, whether by e-mail or in chat rooms, are generally followed by increasingly?self-revealing topics, and then after a while, the two strangers perceive each other as a true friend.
不管是通过电子邮件还是聊天室，最初是简单的交流，然后是越来越多自我表露的话题，过了一段时间之后，两个陌生人把彼此当成了真正的朋友。
perceive…as…把……看成// the two strangers perceive each other as a true friend.
2. When you reach for the mouse with sweaty palms and butterflies in the stomach to look in the in-box for new mail - there's just no way to escape the fact - love has arrived. (1) reach for the mouse 伸手够鼠标，reach for 用手去拿，用手去抓 (2) in-box 收件箱 out-box 发件箱
(3) there's no way to do sth. 没办法去做某事
there's just no way to escape the fact。没办法去逃避这个事实。
3. While before a real date we fix our hair and our clothes, on the internet we polish our intellect, imagination and personality. (1) while表示前后对比，再如：
He is hot-tempered, while his twin sister is very gentle. (2) polish 润色
(3) 句子的译文：现实中约会前我们打理自己的头发和服饰，而在互联网上，我们依靠智慧，想象力和个人品格。
4. In essence, the sequence is reversed - first we show our inner beauty and only after it had won victory does the veil fall off the physical vehicle of that personality at the time of that first meeting in person.
(1) only after…放在and后面分句的句首，故第二分句倒装。？？？ \"only+介词短语或状语从句\"句子倒装，例如： Only in this way can you succeed.
Only when you have tried hard can you taste the flavor of success.
(2) 句子的译文：其实顺序是相反的：我们先展示了内在美，只有在内在美赢得胜利之后，第一次见面，外在的东西才展露出来。
5. To put it another way: Does the physical appearance of the man or woman play a part in the relationship if, through the exchange of thoughts and feelings, they already fell in love? (1) put: state, express 表达，表述 a well-put sentence 措辞严谨的句子 (2) play a part / role in sth. 在对某事起作用
(3) through the exchange of thoughts and feelings 通过思想感情的交流
⑥ (6)Many say it is against the nature of love to be?deprived of?the sense of sight, the look, the movement, and the body language being present.?(7)There are those, of course, who favor Internet relationships claiming that the?intensity?of the emotional relationship that develops in such a way is superior to the mere stirring of the flesh.?
本部分重点及难点
6. Many say it is against the nature of love to be deprived of the sense of sight, the look, the movement, and the body language being present. (1) It is against the nature of love… 是违背爱的本性的 (2) deprive …of… 剥夺，使丧失

He derives great pleasure from helping others.
A lot of English words are derived from Latin and French.
7. There are those, of course, who favor Internet relationships claiming that the?intensity of the emotional relationship that develops in such a way is superior to the mere stirring of the flesh.
be superior to 优于……
类似用法的词：inferior, superior, junior, senior, anterior, posterior, prior，这些词表示比较，但之后都用to，不用than。例如：
The cloth is inferior to that one in quality. Her husband is two years senior to her. 请认真答题，答题结果将记入知识点测评的成绩！
【单选题】22. We can't ______ him ______ the right to defend himself even though he is a suspected criminal.
• • • •
A． derive, of B． deprive, of C． derive, from D． deprive, from 【答案】B
【解析】本题考查deprive…of / derive…from。deprive…of…意为\"剥夺，使丧失\"，derive…from意为\"得到，派生\"，故选B。本句的意思是\"虽然他是个嫌疑犯我们也不能剥夺他为自己辩护的权利。\" 【知识点】deprive…of / derive…from
⑦ Whatever the opinion may be on cyber love - it must be said?in favor of?the internet that it puts people?in touch with?those who they?otherwise?would never have met. I would never have suspected that the first person I met by e-mail would be a German chimney sweeper, with whom, after a year of correspondence,?albeit?not romantic, a common interest still exists.
⑧ It is silly to perceive the Net as a demon, when we determine how we meet its challenges. While there are those who can use the Net?to their advantage?extracting useful information,
there are those who become addicts?losing common sense, hopping from chat room?to chat room, writing piles of e-mails full of lies to chosen victims, and whose virtual reality, the flirtations, become part of their everyday lives, as if a disease. One thing is true - the Net is very?addictive. According to the confession of a multiple substance addict, it was easier to give up cocaine than the?IRC（short for Internet Relay Chat网上实时聊天）.
⑨ In any case, keep your eyes open off-line as well. Turn off the machine and go to a dance or a club, because most women still expect to be courted in a real, old-fashioned, and romantic way.

The Impact of the Internet on Society
1 The Internet has?had a profound effect on?society?over the last two decades. Although it began as a?government operation,?over time?this innovative technology eventually evolved into a public novelty. Looking at society today, one may find that the situation has certainly evolved. For many, the Internet has become an essential for?daily living,?no longer the?fun novelty?it was 10 years ago. Even a decade ago if you were to think about whether or not the Internet had significant impact on society, the answer would likely have been probably not. While the Net may have been considered?a neat innovation（绝妙的革新，neat意为很棒的，绝妙的）, it was not like anyone \"needed\" it.
2 However, over time this?perception?has changed for many individuals in society. The Internet has become, for the most part,?an absolute necessity, either by requirement or by desire.?Going online has become as natural as doing other daily tasks people have traditionally done.（承上启下句） (1)People?take it for granted?that the Internet will be available, and dependency on being connected has become the norm.?Both businesses and individuals?alike?depend upon the routine availability of the Internet. Due to the fact that many businesses, government agencies and other organizations have navigated to the online environment, generally people require consistent access, or 24/7 (24hours a day, 7 days a week) access, if you will. 本部分重点及难点： 1. People?take it for granted?that the Internet will be available, and dependency on being connected has become the norm. take sth. for granted 认为某事理所当然，想当然 take it for granted that…当宾语是从句时，要用形式宾语代替，也可以把宾补for granted前移，宾语从句后置，即take for granted that…。 Children take (it) for granted that their parents should give them money whenever they need it. 3?In many ways the Internet has had a very positive effect on society.（主题句） It has improved?communication,?simplified?handling tasks and errands, offered huge?convenience, enabled?faster processing, and provided more options, all of which have?freed more time to do other things. 4?Yet, interestingly enough the Internet has, in some ways, had negative effects.（主题句）The quality of communication has declined; people are?impatient?because they have become accustomed to?instant gratification（立即得到满足）, and using the Internet also takes up a lot of time. (2)As websites such as Facebook and other socially based interactions increase in usage, many hours a day are consumed as people keep up with their various networks, taking away from other activities.?
本部分重点及难点：
2. As websites such as Facebook and other socially based interactions（交流，互动）increase in usage, many hours a day are consumed as people keep up with their various networks, taking away from other activities.
一些网站使用量大增，比如脸谱和其他社交网站。人们每天花费很多时间忙于各种网络联系，占用了其他活动的时间。
5 (3)When looking at it from?the latter perspective, one may wonder whether or not the Internet has truly benefited society.?(4)Realistically, as with anything else, the Internet has its pros and cons.?Tools such as e-mail and instant messaging have become the standard; social
networks are quickly evolving into the next level of communication, and people enjoy their constant access.?In this respect the benefits of the Internet are tremendous.（承上启下句）(5)This is not only evidenced by the many activities people engage in when they connect to the Internet, but also by the continuous progression and development of mobile devices such as smartphones.?
本部分重点及难点
3. When looking at it from?the latter perspective, one may wonder whether or not the Internet has truly benefited society. the former…the latter…前者…，后者… benefit sth. 对……有益

联想：influence - influential
4. Realistically, as with anything else, the Internet has its pros and cons. realistically: in reality as with: 正如，与……一样
pros and cons正反两方面，有利有弊
5. This is not only evidenced by the many activities people engage in when they connect to the Internet, but also by the continuous progression and development of mobile devices such as smartphones.
(1) not only…but also… (2) evidence证明
(3) 译文：人们利用互联网所从事的种种活动，以及移动设备如智能手机的持续进步和发展都能证明这一点。
