Windows 8 experience—Apart from computers, Windows 8 will be used on all devices, including smart phones, tablet PC's and so on. Also, owing to the fact that it has been specifically designed with touch screen users in mind, Windows 8, besides using keyboard and mouse, will offer a whole new user experience.

　　However, there are still some disadvantages.

　　The first one that has to be mentioned is that there is no Start Menu from Windows. Yes, there is no Start button in the lower left corner, and this might be a real puzzle of many Windows users. Also, many users have had a problem to get used to the new interface (界面) introduced by Windows 8. The biggest problem that is worth noticing is that Windows 8 was originally designed for touch screen users, and this may have a bad effect on desktop users who have gotten used to doing everything with the help of their keyboard and mouse.

　　本文是说明文，介绍了Windows 8的优缺点。

　　5．What does “plus sides” in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?

　　A．Math symbols.

　　B．Strengths.

　　C．New rules.

　　D．Messages.

　　答案：B　考查词义猜测。考查考生对上下文的理解及词义的推断能力。从plus这个词的本意和下文中提到的“Speed，New passwords，Windows 8 experience”还有“However，there are still some disadvantages.”可知。
