Question

閱讀理解 　　Three months after the government stopped issuing(發(fā)放)or renewing permits for Internet cafes because of security(安全)concerns, some cafe owners are having financial(經(jīng)濟(jì)的)concerns of their own． 　　The permits were stopped suddenly three months ago by the government until new safeguards could be put in place to prevent misuse of the information superhighway, but for cafe owners it’s a business breakdown with no fix in sight． 　　“I handed in a request to open up an Internet cafe and received the conditions,” said the businessman Obeidallah．“I rented a place in the Sharafiah district at SR 45 000 and prepared the place with equipment that cost me more than SR 100 000．When I went to the local government after finishing everything, I was surprised to find that they’d stopped issuing permits for Internet cafes．” 　　Having an Internet cafe without Internet is much like having a coffee shop without coffee．“I’m avoiding closing the place, but it’s been more than three months with the situation ongoing as it is,” Obeidallah said．“Who will bear the losses caused by the permit issue?” 　　The decision took many cafe owners by surprise．“I asked to open an Internet cafe, and I was handed a list of all the things that were needed to follow through, such as a sign for the place, filling out forms,” said Hassan Al-Harbi． 　　“I did all that was asked and rented a place．And after the Haj vacation I went to the local government and they surprised me, saying that there are new rules that forbid the issuing of any more Internet cafe permits and that one can’t even renew his permit．I’ve lost more than SR 80 000,”Al-Harbi added． 　　As for the government, officials say a method to deal with it is on the way, but security concerns come before profit(贏利)． (1) The government stopped issuing or renewing permits for Internet cafes ________． [　　] A． to prevent misuse of new safeguards in Internet cafes B． to make cafe owners earn less profit from their business C． to stop the use of the information superhighway on Internet D． to make sure of the proper use of the information superhighway (2) The government’s decision led to the fact that many cafe owners ________． [　　] A． suffered heavy financial losses B． asked to open up Internet cafes C． continued to operate Internet cafes D． asked the government for payment (3) The underlined phrase in the last paragraph “on the way” means ________． [　　] A． to be studied B． to be put into practice C． to be changed D． to be improved (4) The cafe owners found the government’s decision ________． [　　] A． surprising and unacceptable B． understanding and acceptable C． reasonable but surprising D． surprising but acceptable

Answer 1

答案：1．D;2．A;3．B;4．A;
提示：

(1)	從文中第二段中的“…to prevent misuse of the information superhighway, …”可知，政府停發(fā)或拒絕更新營(yíng)業(yè)執(zhí)照的目的是確保信息高速公路的正確使用。
(2)	從文中所舉的兩個(gè)例子中可知，網(wǎng)吧的經(jīng)營(yíng)者們都在賠錢，但他們只是抱怨，并沒有采取進(jìn)一步的行動(dòng)。
(3)	從固定短語(yǔ)on the way(to)“在(去)……的路上”及文章的內(nèi)容，可確定答案。
(4)	從文中第四段的“Who will bear the losses caused by the permit issue?”及文中倒數(shù)第二段中的“…and they surprised me…”，可知網(wǎng)吧業(yè)主們對(duì)政府的做法既感到吃驚又感到無(wú)法接受。
