2015年公共英语等级考试pets3备考文PassingonSmallChange
 Passing on Small Change

  The pharmacist handed me my prescription,apologized for the wait,

  and explained that his register had already closed.

  He asked if I would mind using the register at the front of the store.

  I told him not to worry and walked up front,

  where one person was in line ahead of me,

  a little girl no more than seven, with a bottle of medicine on the counter.

  She clenched a little green and white striped coin purse closely to her chest.

  The purse reminded me of the days when, as a child,

  I played dress-up in my grandma’s closet.

  I’d march around the house in oversized clothes,

  drenched in costume jewelry and hats and scarves,

  talking “grownup talk” to anyone who would listen.

  I remembered the thrill one day when I gave a pretend dollar to someone,

  and he handed back some real coins for me to put into my special purse.

  “Keep the change!”he told me with a wink.

  Now the clerk rang up the little girl’s medicine,

  while she shakily pulled out a coupon, a dollar bill and some coins.

  I watched her blush as she tried to count her money,

  and I could see right away that she was about a dollar short.

  With a quick wink to the clerk,

  I slipped a dollar bill onto the counter and signaled the clerk to ring up the sale.

  The child scooped her uncounted change into her coin purse,

  grabbed her package and scurried out the door.

  As I headed to my car, I felt a tug on my shirt.

  There was the girl, looking up at me with her big brown eyes.

  She gave me a grin, wrapped her arms around my legs for a long moment

  then stretched out her little hand.

  It was full of coins.“Thank you,” She whispered.

  “That’s okay,” I answered.

  I flashed her a smile and winked,“Keep the change!”
  With the widespread computers.there is an increase in the number of people making use of Internet.Some people believe that Internet will bring great benefits to people while others think Internet may cause depression.

  Write an article about it to clarify your own points of view towards this issue.

  You should write no less than 250 words.Write your article on ANSWER SHEET 2.

  One possible version:

  As computers are increasingly popular,we can have more access to Internet.It is true that Interact can bring us a lot of benefits.With Internet we can connect with the rest of the world.We can build relationships with people who are in places we cannot go.We can enjoy services offered on the net.

  Internet,however,also brings us some side effects.Internet use may cause a decline in psychological well—being.According to the research done in an American university,even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less frequently.It wasn’t that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet,but that using the Net actually appeared to cause the bad feelings.

  The fact that Internet use reduces time available for family and friends may account for me drop in well.being.Faceless.bodiless “virtual” communication may less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation,and relationships formed through it may be shallower.What’s more,exposure to the wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.

  Though Internet use may cause some side effects,we must remember that this is not about the technology itself;it’s about how it is used.If it can be used properly,Internet call be more beneficial to our life.
