What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn’t being “replaced”We’d been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the “new” stuff (东西) we got was really just to replace what we’d lost.But not my ring.My ring was new.

Thenonly one month laterI lost it.I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning.I was sad and searched everywhere for it.But it seemed to have disappeared.EventuallyI gave up and stopped looking for it.And two years laterwe sold the house and moved away.

Years passedand a couple of moves laterI was visiting my parents’ when Mum told me that she had something for me.It wasn’t my birthdaynor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift?giving occasion.Mum noticed my questioning look.“You’ll recognize this one”she saidsmiling.

Then she handed me a small ring box.I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside.

The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorationswhich included replacing the carpets.When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroomthey found the ring.As it had my initials carved into itthey realized who owned the ring.They’d had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother.

(2011·福建卷)E

The  internet will open up new vistas (前景),creat the global village- -you can make new friends all around the world. That,at least, is what it promised us. The difficulty is that

It did not take the human mind into account. The reality is that we cannot keep relationship than a limited number of people. No matter how hard the internet tries to put

You in communication, its best efforts will be defeated by your mind.

The problem is twofold(双重的). First, there is a limit on the number of people we can hole in mind and have a meaningful relationship with. That number is about 150 and is set by the size of our brain. Second, the quality of your relationships depends on the amount of time you invest (投入) in then. We invest a lot in a small number of people and then distribute what’s left among as many others as we can. The problem is that if we invest little time in a person, our engagement with that person will decline (减弱)until eventually it dies into “someone I once knew”.

This is not, of course, to say that the internet doesn’t serve a socially valuable function. Of course it does. But the question is not that it allows you to increase the size of your social circle to include the rest of the world, but that you can keep your relationships with your existing friends going even though you have to more to the other side of the world.

In one sense, that’s a good thing. But it also has a disadvantage. If you continue to invest in your old friends even though you can no longer see then, then certainly you aren’t using your time to make new friends where you now live. And I suspect that probably isn’t the best use of your time. Meaningful relationships are about being able to communicate with each other, face to face. The internet will slow down the rate with which relationships end, but it won’t stop that happening eventually.

72. What is stressed in the first paragraph?

A. The present situation of the internet.

B. The difficulty in communication on the internet.

C. The socially valuable function of the internet.

D. The role of the human mind in the internet communication.

73. The underlined word “engagement” in the second paragraph probably means “____”.

A. appointment   B. connection   C. interview    D. agreement

74. According to the passenger, the author holds the view that____.

A. the internet fails to play so valuable a role in communication as it promised

B. the internet determines the quality of social relationships

C. the internet greatly increases the size of social circles

D. the internet communication is no less effective than the

face-to-face talk

75. What is the author’s attitude towards the use of the internet to strengthen relationships?

A. He is uncertain about it.     B. He is hopeful of it.

C. He approves of it.            D. He doubts it.
