Researchers from Open University in Britain have found in a recent study that there are good reasons for this.The team of researchers as
2、ked 83 pairs of students, all strangers to each other, to solve a problem. They had to discuss this question: If only five people in the world could be saved from a world disaster, who should they be? The pairs of students had to talk over the problem either face to face or by computers. Dr. Johnson
3、 said, “They told their partners four times as much about themselves when they talked over the Internet as when they talked face to face. When the computers were fitted with cameras so that students could see each other, this limited the personal side of the conversation.”Generally the information w
4、as not extremely personal. It was mainly about things such as where they went to school, or where they used to live. But some students discussed their love stories, and personal childhood experiences.Dr Johnson believes that emailing encourages people to focus on themselves. And when they do this, t
5、hey become more open, especially if there are no cameras. “If you cannot see the other person, it becomes easier to talk about yourself. This is because you are not thinking what the other person is thinking of you. So emailing has become the modern way of talking,” said Dr. Johnson. However, this s
6、tyle of talking is not entirely new. “In the 19th century people started to use the telegraph to communicate. Now the same kind of thing has happened and people ended up speaking more freely.”Dr. Johnson thinks that emailers need to know about these effects of emailing, especially when they start wo
7、rk in a company. “ If you dont know about them, you could find yourself saying more about yourself than you wanted to.”1. The subject discussed in this passage is _.A. how people do research studies B. how people open up when emailingC. how to communicate at workD. how to discuss and solve a problem

In the writers opinion, one should _.A. focus on oneself when emailing
9、B. talk more freely in emails than usualC.consider how one uses email at work D. discuss any subject that one wants to BA new study of 8,000 young people in the journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily,it is a bad thing for young peopl
10、e. Puppy love(早恋)may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression. The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all. The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”. According
11、to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They wont tell that to their par
12、ents. Dr Marianm Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong f
13、riendships and a strong sense of self. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family. Parents should watch for signs of depressioneating or mood changesand if they see signs from t
14、heir daughters or sons,they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity(成熟) gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.4. Whats the main idea of the passage?A. Puppy
15、love may bring young people depression.B. Parents should forbid their childrens love.C. Romance is a two-edged sword for adults.D. Romance is good for young people.5.

17、and parents.C. Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.D. The older a woman is, the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.7. Whats the authors attitude towards puppy love?A. Confused B. Disapproving C. Disinterested D. Scared CDevon, 17, is used to paying
18、 her own cell phone and car expenses. But lately its been harder. The family she baby-sits for hasnt been calling as much as usual and she couldnt find a job over the summer. Devons dad said its a sign of the tough economy. He told her hes feeling the pinch too and that he had to use her college fun
19、d to pay the loan(货款). This kind of money troubles isnt strange to common families these days. In fact, its hard to avoid news about the economy on the screen of the TV or the computers recently. It can seem a bit worry and some families are hit really hard. For most people, the big problem is that
20、things cost more at a time when they have less money to spend. But higher prices arent the only problem. Many people are having a tough time making payments on some types of home loans. Therefore, some families are cutting back on what they spend. For example, eating out less, staying home instead o
21、f going on vacation, moving to a less expensive house and so on. However, as discouraging as things may seem now, the good news is that the economy always gets back on track after a while. Jobs may be hard to find, but the slow economy can open up new opportunities. The couple Devon babysat for migh
22、t cut back on evenings out, but they could be interested in hiring her for after-school care. Perhaps its time to sell her old toys and baby gear (设备)in the basement(地下室) or help others sell these items online if she is good at it. She could charge them a fee to sell their old stuff(东西).8. What does
23、 the underlined phrase in the first paragraph refer to?A. Getting hurt. B. Receiving less calls.C. Out of work. D. Short of money 9. According to the passage, what constantly appears on the screen nowadays?A. News on the tough economy. B. Devons family troubles.C. Advertisements for babysitters. D.
24、Information on yard sales.10. What do people do to overcome the tough economy?A. To strike for high pay. B. To open a new store to sell toys.C. To cut down their expense. D. To move to other places for vocations.11.The passage is mainly about_A Devons own family money troubles B. family troubles mad
25、e by tough economyC. ways of solving the slow economy D. the increasing prices and expensesDThe evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on well with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly-held image of unhappy t
26、eenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it had ever been in the past.“We were surprised by just how positive todays young people seem to be about their families,”said o
27、ne member of the research team. “Theyre expected to be rebellious(叛逆的) and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds: they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. Theres more negotiation(商议) and discussion between parents and children
28、, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They dont want to rock the boat.”So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends.“My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to li
29、sten to me,”says 17-year-old Daniel Lazall.“I always tell them when Im going out clubbing. As long as they know what Im doing, theyre fine with me.”Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees.“Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as Id do
30、ne all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion(反抗) is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comment
31、s,“Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s whe
32、n everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over.”12.According to the author, teenage rebellion_A. may be a false belief B. is common nowadays C. existed only in the 1960s D. resulted from changes in fam
33、ilies.13. The study shows that teenagers dont want to _.A. share family responsibilityB. cause trouble in their familiesC. go boating with their familyD. make family decisions14. Compared with parents of 30 years ago, todays parents _.A. go to clubs more often with their childrenB. are much stricter
34、 with their childrenC. care less about their childrens lifeD. give their children more freedom15. What is the passage mainly about?A. Negotiation in family. B. Education in family.C. Harmony in family. D. Teenage trouble in family. EThe Farmers Fresh MarketThis morning,I went to the Farmers Market i
35、n Burlington ,Vermont. I didnt know what the Farmers Market is or how to get there. 16First ,I had to decide how to go there,and I chose both to walk and to take a bus. When I went,I would walk and when I came back,I would take a bus. 17Walking to the market in this city,I was surprised because ever
36、y house was beautiful,and they were all arranged in good order. In Koreas cities,most houses are not like that,and many apartments are like boxes which often screen off beautiful views like hills and mountains. Also,every road is not straight and narrow. 1819It was a very small market,but a very int
37、eresting one. I dont know why farmers go there to sell vegetables or why people go there to buy them because there are many more products in large supermarkets. 20Also ,all the things sold there were very novel.
