短文後,選出最適當的答案。 A blog can be considered as a journal that can continuously allow the users to update their own
words and post their work online through software. Its simple interface is so easy to perform,
demanding no professional knowledge of web scripting. Thus, anyone who can create a basic word
document can create and maintain a blog. In addition, one can even add pictures or audio files to
improve a blog’s attractiveness. What’s more, a blog is interactive in the sense that readers can
respond with comments in just a few steps. Online forums can also take place on any blog site. Most blogs on the Internet are personal or journalistic. However, there have been an increasing
number of people using blogs in education. In terms of teaching and learning, students could use a
personal blog to document and demonstrate their development over time. Hence, blogs could be
used to monitor and assess students’ work as well as encourage interactions between students and
teachers. Blogs can be used in many different ways. One of them is to provide tools for reading in a
language other than one’s mother tongue, through the interactive nature of blogs. One can read and
also comment on what one reads with the expectation of a little discussion and a quest for common
interests and individual differences. By writing on blogs, people can get feedback from other
audiences all over cyberspace. Students have an opportunity to read things they are interested in and
write things they truly wish to write, thereby combining their texts with conversations in a very
personal and stimulating way. In other words, blogs allow people to exchange information without
space and time constraints to broaden their knowledge and meet personal needs and interests at the
same time. 【題組】42. Which of these statements is NOT stated in the passage above?
