12、只是覺得餐廳服務員運用的時候不夠敏捷。這與文章的主題不符。2.C 推理判斷題。此題考查例子與主題之間的關系。答題的依據(jù)是第1段最末兩句，文章指出餐館跟因特網(wǎng)一樣，它們都收集用戶的信息。選項A和B都只滲及表面，選項D那么不如選項C準確、詳細。3.B 事實環(huán)節(jié)題。選擇依據(jù)是第2段第3句及第4句。選項B是對這兩句話的歸納。選項A談的是可食用的甜餅，而不是本文表達的用于收集用戶信息的一種軟件。選項C是對第2段第3、4句的歪曲理解。文章明確提出了cookie不是最新的發(fā)現(xiàn)，選項D不正確。4.D 事實環(huán)節(jié)題。本句考查繁復句的理解，并涉及兩個事物的對比。第2段介紹Ale*a時，指明它does even more，接著用while連接一個讓步狀語從句，其主句是關于Ale*a的信息，據(jù)此可
