问题     My friend Mike was shaking his head in disbelief. " That young woman who just waited on me, " he said, pointing to an employee of the fast food restaurant where we were eating, " had to call someone over to help her count the change. The cash register(出纳机)showed her I need 99 cents, but she couldn’t figure out how to count out the coins. " I understood Mike’s concern. What we have done in this country, although unintentionally, is to create several generations of individuals most of whom have no idea how to reason, how to do simple math, how to do research, or finally how to be creative. The reason for this is our overuse of information technology: video games, television, digital watches, calculators, and computers. Information technology feeds us information without requiring us to think about it and let us perform operations without understanding them.
    It is time for us to take a hard look at an educational system that only teaches our children how to push buttons. Our kids can’t tell time if the clock has hands. They can use calculators, but cannot add, subtract, divide or multiply. Video games have taken the place of active, imaginative play. Although most of them are technically literate, they choose not to read. They are so used to television and movies that they cannot use their imagination to stay interested in a book.
    It is not enough to recognize the problem. What we need is solution. The one I offer is simple to suggest, but may be impossible to carry out. We must unplug our children. If we don’t, they will never learn how to solve problems. They will never learn basic reasoning skills and will certainly not develop creativity. Instead of filling classrooms with electronics, let’s concentrate on good old - fashioned literacy—reading books. Students must be taught not only to perform computer operations, but to figure and reason for themselves. They must see how things work and how process leads to results, they must also stretch their imagination.
The conclusion of the article is that the author believes______.
选项 A、electronics should have no place in classrooms
B、information technology helps us to do things we do not understand
C、all books benefit children more than anything else
D、information technology is now being overused
答案D
解析 推理判断题。本题问本文的结论是作者认为……。从全文来看，作者一直在埋怨过度使用信息技术耽误了孩子的正常学习。据此应该选D。其它选项都存在问题：A．电子装备应该在课堂上无其位置，推理走得太远了，即从一个极端跳到了另一个极端；B．信息技术能帮助我们做不懂的事情，这无须推理，文章明确告诉我们了；C．所有书籍都比其它东西对孩子更有益，这话同样说得太绝对了，难道坏书也包括在内吗?
