The mountainous 64-spuare-mile island was settled around the 5th century，suppposedly by people who were lost at sea.

On Easter Suday，1722，however，settlers from Holland moved in and gave the island its name. Today，2，000 people live on the Chilean territory(智利领土).They share one street，a small airport and a few hours of television per day.

There is one foreign product the Japanese are buying faster faster than others，and its popularity has caused an uneasy feeling among many Japanese.
That product is foreign words.
Gairaigo-words that comefrom outside have been part of the Japanese language for centuries. Mostly borrowed from English and Chiease.These terms are often changed into forms no longer understood by native speakers.
But in the last few years the trickle(涓涓细流)of foreign words has become a flood，and people fear the increasing use of foreign words is making it hard for the Japanese to understand each other and could lead to many people forgetting the good qualities of traditional(传统的) Japanese.
“The popularity of forgign words is part of the Japanese interest in anything，”says university lecturer and writer Takashi Saito.“By using a foreign word you can make a subject seem new，which makes it easier for the medias(媒体)to pick up.”
“Experts(专家)often study abroad and use English terms when they speak with people in their own fields. Those terms are then included in government white papers，”said Muturo Kai,president of the National Language Research Institute.“Foreign words find their way easily into announcements made to the general public，when they should really be explained in Japanese.”
Against the flow of new words，many Japanese are turning back to the study of their own language.Saito's Japanese to Be Read Aloud is one of many language books that are now flying off book sellers' shelves.
　“We were experting to sell the books to young people，” said the writer，“but it turns out they are more popular with the older generation who seem uneasy about the future of Japanese.”
68. What advantages do foreign words have over traditional Japanese terms？
A. The idea sexpressed in foreign words sound new.
B. Foreign words are best suited for announcements.
C. Foreign words make new subject seasier to understand.
D. The use of foreign words makes the media more popular.
69.IntheopinionofTakashiSaito，Japanesepeople_____.
A. are good at learning foreign languages
B. Are willing to learn about new things
C. trust the media
D. respect experts
70. Which of the following plays an important part in the spread of foreign words？
A. The media and govemment papers
B. Best-selling Japanese textbooks.
C. The interest of young Japenese.
D. Foreign products and experts
71. The book Japanese to Be read Aloud____.
A. sells very well in Japan
B. is supported by the government
C. is questioned by the old generation
D. causes misunderstanding among the readers.

At one time，computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents(文件) because they could be stored electronically.But for all the tests that are written ，stored and sent electronically，a lot of them are still ending up on paper.
It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of use of Internet- connected computers，although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that whene-mail is introduced，the printers start working overtime."I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down，” says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organization.
Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself，which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets. Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer.Earlier this week Hewlett-Packard Co.announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document，a medical record or just a one-linee-mail，even if they are nowhere near a computer. As the company sees it，the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers.
Does all this mean environmental concerns(环境问题)have been forgotten？Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away.“I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of，because of recycling(回收利用)，”said Kelly Quirke，director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco.Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful.He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity.The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood，such as agricultural waste.
72. The growing demand for paper in recent years is largelydueto____.
A. the rapid development of small businesses
B. the opening up of new markets
C. the printing of high quality copies
D. the increased use of the Internet
73. Environmentalists believe one possible way of dealing with the paper situationis_____
A. to encourage printing more quality documents
B. to develop new printers using recycled paper
C. to find new materials for making paper
D. to plant more fast growing trees
74. Hewlett-Packard Co.has decided to develop new technologies because____
A. people are concerned about the environment
B. printers in many offices are working over time
C. small companies need more hard copies
D. they see a growing market for printers
75. What would be the best title for the text？
A. Computers and Printers
B. E-mail and the Business World
C. Internet Revolution and Environme
D. Modern Technology and New Markets
