Why play games? Because they are fun, and a 1ot more besides. Following the rules…planning your next move . . . acting as a team member…these are all “game” ideas that you will come across throughout your life.
Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are entertaining and fun. But perhaps more importantly, they translate life into exciting dramas that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and cooperating (合作) .

For countries experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olympic win can mean so much.

Passage Three
In what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the early postwar era, there was a quite widespread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem. People tend to be over-trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their authority. Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfunction.
Obviously, there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone awry. Questioning and routine double checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days. Maybe each computer should come with the following warning: for all the help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.
21.What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To look back to the early days of computers.
B. To explain what technical problems may occur with computers? C. To discourage unnecessary investment in computers.
D. To warn against a mentally lazy attitude towards computers.
22. According to the passage, initial concerns about computers were that they might_____
A. lead us into the post-war era B. be quite widespread C. take control
D. take over routine tasks
23. The passage recommends those dealing with computers to_____ A. be reasonably skeptical abort them B. check all their answers
C. substitute them for basic thinking D. use them for business purposes only 24.An “internal computer” is_____
A. a computer uses exclusively by one company for its own problems B. a person’s store of knowledge and the ability to process it C. the most up-to-date in-house computer a company can buy D. a computer from the post-war era which is very reliable
25.The passage suggests that the present-day problem with regard to computers is_____
A. challenging B. psychological C. dramatic
D. malfunctioning
