问答题(1) {{U}}Contemporary technological reporting is full of notions of electronic communities in which people interact across regions or entire continents.{{/U}} Could such "virtual communities" eventually replace geographically localized social relations? There are reasons to suspect that, as the foundation for a democratic society, virtual communities will remain seriously deficient. (2) {{U}}For example, electronic communication filters out and alters much of the subtlety, warmth, contextuality, and so on that seem important to fully human, morally engaged interaction.{{/U}} That is one reason many Japanese and European executives persist in considering face-to-face encounter essential to their business dealings and why many engineers, too, prefer face-to-face interaction and find it essential to their creativity. (3) {{U}}Even hypothetical new media (e. g. advanced "virtual realities"), conveying a dimensionally richer sensory display, are unlikely to prove fully satisfactory substitutes for face-to-face interaction.{{/U}} Electronic media decompose holistic experience into analytically distinct sensory dimensions and then transmit the latter. At the receiving end, people can resynthesize the resulting parts into a coherent experience, but the new whole is invariably different and, in some fundamental sense less, than the original. Second, there is evidence that screen-based technologies (such as TV and computer monitors) are prone to induce democratically unpromising psychopathologies, ranging from escapism to passivity, obsession, confusing watching with doing, withdrawal from other forms of social engagement, or distancing from moral consequences. Third, a strength—but also a drawback—to a virtual community is that any member can exit instantly. Indeed, an entire virtual community can decline or perish in the wink of an eye. (4) {{U}}To the extent that membership in virtual communities proves less stable than that obtaining in other forms of democratic community, or that social relations prove less thick (i. e. less embedded in a context filled with shared meaning and history), there could be adverse consequences for individual psychological and moral development.{{/U}} Fourth, (5) {{U}}no matter with whom we communicate nor how far our imaginations fly, our bodies—and hence many material interdependencies with other people—always remain locally situated.{{/U}} Thus it seems morally hazardous to commune with far-flung tele-mates, if that means growing indifferent m physical neighbors. It is not encouraging m observe just such indifference in California's Silicon Valley, one of the world's most "highly wired" regions.

问答题爱情被认为是文学作品的永恒主题，中西方文化都产生了许多以爱情为主题的伟大作品。我国伟大的古典小说家曹雪芹所著的《红楼梦》和“英国文学之父”威廉：莎士比亚的《罗密欧与朱丽叶》，都是以爱情为主题的文学作品。 曹雪芹于18世纪末期完成《红楼梦》，而莎士比亚的作品于20世纪初期才传入中国。因此，曹雪芹的《红楼梦》并未受到《罗密欧与朱丽叶》的影响。莎士比亚生活在16～17世纪的英格兰，他自然无缘见识《红楼梦》。可是，这两位生活于不同世纪、不同文化背景下的文坛巨人的作品中，却存在着许多共同之处。

问答题Certainly people do not seem less interested in success and what it can do for us now than formerly. Summer homes, European vacations, travel, BMW's—such items do not seem less in demand than they did a decade or two years ago. What has happened is that people cannot admit their dreams as easily and o-penly as they once could, lest they be thought of as pushing, acquisitive, and vulgar. For such people and many more perhaps not so outstanding, the proper action seems to be, "Succeed at all costs but refrain from appearing ambitious". The attacks on ambition are many and come from various angles, while its public defenders are few and ineffective. As a result, the support for ambition as a healthy impulse, a quality to be admired and cultivated in the young, is probably lower than it has ever been in the United States. This does not mean that ambition is at an end, that people no longer feel its urges, but only that since it is no longer openly honored.it is therefore less often openly professed. Consequences follow from this, of course, some of which are that ambition is driven underground or made devious.
