32、cial headset or on a phone with a special adaptor. Increasingly, they can also be made over mobile phones, using Wi-Fi technology. Eventually, the companies say, they will be available on all devices, from televisions to iPods to appliances like refrigerators. The idea is that screens and voice tech

33、nology will be everywhere, bringing your calls to you wherever you happen to be. And the old notion that a phone number is linked to a specific place is about to disappear. Already, someone in Mumbai can purchase a number with a Manhattan area code and carry it with him wherever he goes. Road warrio

34、rs can get local, rather than long-distance, dialing rates by making calls with their laptops. The Internet is free, and the technologies it is based on are open. That also makes it easier and cheaper for the new telephone companies to offer expanded features. Voice greetings could be customized to

35、each caller, and a different ringtone could flag each member of the family. Bars and clubs could be equipped with a device at the door that finds your likely match in a computer database and automatically places a call to your potential sweetheart. Like a broadband connection, an Internet phone is a

36、lways on. For teens, that means mobile phones that allow endless chats with several friends at the same time, or an open hot line to Mom and Dad. “VoIP will mean the end of picking up a phone, talking and then hanging up,“ Says Paul Saffo, director of the Institute for the Future in Palo Alto, Calif

37、. Which of these features comes to pass, though, is anybodys guess. Experts say VoIP will make the old idea of digital convergence a reality, blurring lines between telecoms, cable, computers and consumer electronics. The race among firms like Samsung, Sony and Apple to invent the next killer apps f

38、or consumers will grow more anarchic. And analysts are already speculating about the bizarre merger possibilities: Microsoft, Sony or Google buying a telephone company? In a speech late last year, FCC chairman Michael Powell described the Internet phone call as a “revolution“ with “profound implicat

39、ions“ for the telecom industry, and called for a “new constitution for the regulation of such services, one befitting that revolution.“ Shortly after that speech, to the delight of Vonage and other upstarts, the FCC announced that VoIP would be regulated like the Internet (that is, lightly) rather t

40、han like the rules-heavy old phone system. 80 Which of the followings might be taken as the topic of the passage? （ A） Phone Calls via Internet （ B） New Technology On-line （ C） VoIP Making its Way into Families （ D） The Way to Have a Mobile Phone, Number 81 The purpose of the passage may well be sum

41、marized as _. （ A） to illustrate the functional differences of real telephones and Internet telephones. （ B） to demonstrate the working of mobile phones. （ C） to show the impact of Internet phone calls on real life. （ D） to teach how to make an on-line phone call. 82 By the sentence “Road warriors c

42、an get local, rather than long-distance, dialing rates by making calls with their laptops“ ,the author wants to say _. （ A） people fight so as to get back their laptops. （ B） people who fight in the street strive to make phone calls at a reduced price. （ C） it is possible for people to get cheap pho

43、ne rates, thanks to the Internet. （ D） Internet is changing our life. 83 Which of the following sentences is implied in the passage? （ A） By different beeping sounds, members of the family will easily know whose phone call it is. （ B） Telephone companies say that Internet phone calls will be availab

44、le in the near future. （ C） Long-distance calls will be cheaper and cheaper （ D） The Internet phones should be on a broadband connection. 83 In the world of entertainment, TV talk shows have undoubtedly flooded every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows th

45、at each one varies in style and format. But no two shows are more profoundly opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah, Winfrey show. Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of “trash talk“. The topics on his show are as

46、 shocking as shocking can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show themes of love, sex, cheating, guilt, hate, conflict and morality to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is a display and exploitation of societys moral catastrophe, yet people are willing to eat up t

47、he intriguing predicaments of other peoples lives. Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its extreme, but Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show focuses on the improvement of society and an individuals quality of life. Topics range from teaching your children responsibilit

48、y, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors. Compared with Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being dumped on society. Jerry ends ever with a “final word“. He makes a small speech that sums up the entire moral of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where mo

49、st people will learn something very valuable. Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The shows main target audiences are middle-class Americans. Most of these people have the time, money, and stability to deal with lifes tougher problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of an association with the young adul
