5.According to Orzack, people who struggle with heavy reliance on the Internet may feel ______.
A. depressed B. pressured C. puzzled D. discouraged
本题题干中的“struggle with heavy reliance on the Internet may feel”对应在文章第15节的首句“People who struggle with excessive Internet use may be depressed or have other mood disorders, Orzack said.”这一题是本次快速阅读题目中最为简单的一道，文中看到“depressed”，故答案选择A。
6. Why did Andrew Heidrich cut back on online gaming?
A. He had offended his relatives.
B. He had lost a lot of money.
C. His family had intervened.
D. His career had been ruined.
本题题干中的关键词也是非常明显，“Andrew Heidrich” 作为人名，首次出现在文章第17节，而“cut back …”出现在该节最后一句，所以答案就定位在最后一句了：He cut back only after a full-scale family intervention in which relatives told him he’d gained weight. 可能本题让考生感到稍微有一点麻烦的是，A选项中出现了“relatives”，C选项中出现了“family”，虽然可以排除B和D两个选项，但是A和C又作如何区别呢?遇到这种情况，大家不要紧张，只需再多看一个单词就够了，我们在原文中还看到了“intervention”，而只有C选项中出现了它的动词形式“intervened”，所以答案就是C。
下面我们接着看一下后面三个完成句子的解法。对于完成句子来说，也要记住五个字“句子要审全”。快速阅读中的完成句子本身难度不大，但是命题者会故意通过改变句式、人称、单复数等手段，改变句子的语法属性，给考生设置陷阱。所以，对于这个题型，我们一定要注意把句子审全。总的来说，今年的四个完成句子比09年12月份的要简单一些，虽仍有陷阱，但不至于让考生无法识别。下面来具体分析一下。
8.In one of the messages she posted on a website, Toebe admitted that she ______.
按照我们课堂上讲的“自然段定位”原则，最后四题可供选择的文章范围已经很小了，本题题干关键词对应的是第19节的最后一句：She posted a message on a Yahoo Internet addiction group with the subject online: “ I have an Internet Addiction.” 考生容易发现答案其实就在最后的引号之中，但是如果考生直接填写“have an Internet Addiction”的话，就陷入了命题者设置的陷阱之中。题目中使用的是第三人称Toebe，同时使用的是一般过去时态，这两个语法属性的改变决定了本题答案只能是“had an Internet Addiction”。有的考生题目审不全，会填成“has an Internet Addiction”，只注意到了人称变化，没注意到时态变化，是错误的。
9.Excessive Internet use had rendered Toebe so poor that she couldn’t afford to seek ______.
本题对应的是文章20节的最后一句：I have no money or insurance to get professional help,题干进行了一个简单的同意转换，原文中的“get”， 变成了“seek”， 考生如果发现这一点，就很容易得出答案：professional help。
10.Now that she’s got a boyfriend, Toebe is no longer crazy about ______.
最后这个题目出现在文章最后一节：I have a boyfriend now, and I’m not interested in online dating. 本题依然用了一个小的同意转换，原文中的“interested in”，变成了“crazy about”，所以本题答案是：online dating。
从上面三个完成句子的分析中可以看出，这种题型唯一能给考生设置难度障碍的就是改变句子的语法属性，设置语法陷阱，而考生只要记得“句子要审全”，这个障碍自然就很容易突破了。
总的来说，今年的四级快速阅读题目不难，同学们只要把握我在课堂上讲过的一些基本方法和技巧，学会跳着读、挑着读，学会读段落首尾句(今年这篇快速阅读的十个题目，除最后一个题目出现在最后一节的中间一句外，其它九个题目全部为段落首尾句)，学会克制自己习惯性的思考，学会把句子审全，这篇文章一定可以做得很好。

Caught in the Web
A few months ago, it wasn’t unusual for 47-year-old Carla Toebe to spend 15 hours per day online. She’d wake up early, turn on her laptop and chat on Internet dating sites and instant-messaging programs – leaving her bed for only brief intervals. Her household bills piled up, along with the dishes and dirty laundry, but it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem.
“I was starting to feel like my whole world was falling apart – kind of slipping into a depression,” said Carla. “I knew that if I didn’t get off the dating sites, I’d just keep going,” detaching herself further from the outside world.
Toebe’s conclusion: She felt like she was “addicted” to the Internet. She’s not alone.
Concern about excessive Internet use isn’t new. As far back as 1995, articles in medical journals and the establishment of a Pennsylvania treatment center for overusers generated interest in the subject. There is still no consensus on how much time online constitutes too much or whether addiction is possible.
