以下是101-244题的中文翻译新版，(1-100已发表)借鉴了pleased SeizeMoon等对题目的翻译，更正了其中一些不确切和模糊的翻译，我的体会是翻译与填空的解题原则一样，论题中有的词有多个意思，应关注其上下文两句话的对比关系，而且只有这样，作文才能扣题。

一直希望回馈寄托联盟其他网友的工作，因为做过一段时间的翻译，故翻译了这些题目，并希望与我探讨。

107 "Instant communication systems encourage people to form hasty opinions and give quick replies rather than take the time to develop thoughtful,well-reasoned points of view."

108 "In many countries it is now possible to turn on the television and vie w government at work. Watching these proceedings can help people understand the issues that affect their lives. The more kinds of government proceedings-- trials, debates, meetings, etc -- that are televised, the more society will benefit."
