Alone Together, an amazing description of our changing relationship with technology, is written by Sherry Turkle, an MIT professor of the Social Studies of Science and Technology.
In the book's first half, devoted to robots, Turkle gives out toys like the Tamagotchi, Furby, and Zhu Zhu robotic hamster(仓鼠)，then explores children's deep attachments to the creatures and assessments of whether they are alive. Such quasi-pets set the psychological stage for what Turkle is really worried about: robot
lovers. One woman even says that if a robot acted like it cared, she'd trade in her boyfriend.
The book's second half explores the “network”—instant messages, social networks, confessional websites, and the like—and how it reshapes the self. Fifteen-year-olds send and receive close to 6，000 messages a month.“They communicate all day but are not sure if they have connected.They develop friendships on social networking sites and then wonder if they are among friends.” In texting, a typical question is“Where are you？”， not an open-ended one like “How are you？” Just as robots produce confusion about whether one is alone or with another, Turkle sighs.
“We_are_connected_to_each_other,_but_strangely_more_alone.”
“What can't be denied(否认) is that technology, with all its faults, makes life a lot easier. It allows us to get in touch with more people in less time; it can make conversation simple—no small talk required. But are any of those feelings equal to the kind we feel when engaged in a real, face-to-face setting? Online, you can ignore others' feelings. In a text message, you can avoid eye contact. A number of studies have found that this generation of teens is becoming unconcerned. That doesn't spell disaster, but it does mean we might want to start thinking about the way we want to live. We've gone through terribly rapid change, and some of these things just need a little sorting out.”Turkle says.
This book is not to be missed and worthy of every dollar you spend. 36．In her book, Turkle worries that ________． A．the robotic creatures are not alive
B．all women would fall in love with robots C．children are addicted to keeping animal pets D．more people are lost in the world of technology
37．What can be implied from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4? A．Internet sets us apart from each other. B．Social network is not the real world. C．Internet brings us closer to each other.
D．Messages are used a lot in people's daily life.
38．If a child keeps using messages a lot, he or she may ________． A．get engaged in small talks
B．care little for others' feelings C．get stuck in many disasters
D．well sort out personal relationship
39．The purpose of writing this passage is to ________． A．recommend a good book to readers
B．urge people to keep away from technology
C．analyze the dangers of keeping robots as lovers
D．explore the relationship between human and technology
