8、ted with the sign language at the train station when she was on the way home one evening. She noticed that the woman asked the man for the direction. He told her that he did not know. Galaxy decided to help them. She had learned the sign language when she served as a volunteer in the deaf and mute (
9、聋哑) school. Then she showed the woman the direction and left her email address to them in case they needed her help later.She received an email from that man the next day. Kazrim was his name. Galaxy replied his mail sincerely. They both started chatting online soon after and began seeing each other
10、. Although they only communicated with the sign language, it never bothered her.Galaxy was fond of him gradually. Obviously, Kazrim was the same too. He presented Galaxy with a bunch of sunflowers and asked her sincerely, “Are you willing to be my girlfriend?”Galaxy was pleasantly surprised. She req
11、uested him to give her some time to persuade her parents.As she had expected, her parents were very angry after they had learned of their love story.Galaxy explained, “Kazrim is an excellent and a very optimistic person. He has a very positive attitude towards life and work. He cares for others alwa
12、ys. He is 100 better than the normal. Moreover, the mute is still a human. He should possess a perfect and wonderful love. ”Her parents asked to see him, then.

14、He said, “YOU CAN TALK?” It was the same question that Galaxy wanted to ask, too.The four people were shocked all of a sudden.

18、o little, for that matter might be related to depression, a new study finds.The findings, reported in the journal of Pediatrics, do not mean that the Internet is to blame. For one, teens in the study who spent no time online were also at increased risk of depression symptoms. Instead, the researcher
19、s say that both heavy Internet use, and non-use, could serve as signals that a teenager is having a hard time.For the study, Dr Pierre-Andre Michaud and his colleagues at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, surveyed 7,200 individuals aged 16 to 20 about their Internet use.Those who were online
20、more than two hours per day were considered “heavy” Internet users, while those online anywhere from several times per week to two hours per day were considered “regular” users.The teenagers also answered a number of health-related questions, including some standard questions about “depressive tende
21、ncies” that gauge (判定) how often a person feels sad or hopeless. Compared with regular Internet users, the study found, kids who were heavy users or non-users were more likely to be depressed or very depressed.Among male teens, heavy users and non-users were both around one-third more likely to have
22、 a high depression score, compared to “regular” users. Among girls, heavy Internet users had an 86 percent greater chance of depression, while non-users had a 46 percent greater likelihood compared to regular users.That was with factors like family income and any chronic health problems taken into a
23、ccount. Since teenagers typically go online to contact friends, the researchers guess that those who are never online may be more socially isolated.28.What s the purpose of Dr Michaud and his colleagues study?A. To know the actual number of teenagers online.B. To know the actual time of teenagers on
24、line.C. To know the influence of study online on teenagers.D. To know the relationship between the Internet use and depression.29. How long are those who are online per day considered “heavy” Internet users?A. More than two hours.B. More than eight hours.C. More than twelve hours.D. More than ten ho
25、urs.30. According to the accounts of the sixth paragraph, what can we conclude?A. Non-users of Internet arent likely to be depressed.B. Among girls, heavy Internet users are more likely to suffer depression than regular users.C. Heavy users will lead to death unless limited.D. Non-users have more po
26、ssibility to be depressed than heavy users.31. Whats the meaning of the underlined word “isolated” in the last paragraph?A. IndependentB. UnitedC. Separated.D. Capable.DWe can achieve knowledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea,
27、 or by reasoning.We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. We are used to passive learning, and its not surprising that we depend on it in
28、 our everyday communication with friends and co-workers. Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay and rumor.Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesnt
29、show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are c
30、ompared. Typically, the original message has changed.Thats what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen to improve on it, stamping(打上标记) it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they kn
31、ow.This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be re-stated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinio
32、n or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.32. According to the passage, what situation may passive learning occur in?A. Doing a medical experimentB. Solving a math problemC. Visiting an exhibitionD. Doing scientific reasoning33. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2
33、 refers to?A. Active learningB. KnowledgeC. CommunicationD. Passive learning34. Why does the author mentions the game Rumor? A. To show that a message may be changed when being passed on.B. To show that a message should be delivered in different ways.C. To show that people may have problems with the
34、ir sense of hearing.D. To show that people tend not to believe in what they know as rumor.35. What can we infer from the passage?A. Active learning is less important.B. Passive learning may not be reliable.C. Active learning occurs more frequently.D. Passive learning is not found among scholars.第二节
