28、r it in their lives, according to a survey released on Friday.Park Associates, a Dallas-based technology market research firm, said 29 percent of U.S. families, or 31 million homes, do not have Internet access and do not intend to subscribe（预订）to an Internet service over the next 12 months. The seco
29、nd annual National Technology Scan conducted by Park found that the main reason why potential customers say they do not subscribe to the Internet is because of the low value to their daily lives rather than concerns over cost.Forty-four percent of these families say they are not interested in anythi
30、ng on the Internet, versus just 22 percent who say they cannot afford a computer or the cost of Internet service, the survey showed. The answer “Im not sure how to use the Internet” came from 17 percent of participants who do not subscribe. The response “I do all my e-commerce shopping and YouTube-w
31、atching at work” was cited by 14 percent of Internet-access users. Three percent said the Internet doesnt reach their homes.The study found U.S. broadband adoption grew to 52 percent over 2006, up from 42 percent in 2005. Roughly half of new subscribers converted（转变）from slower-speed, dial-up Intern
32、et access while the other half of families had no prior access.“The industry continues to chip（击破）away at the core of non-subscribers, but has a long way to go,” said John Barrett, director of research at Parks Associates. “Entertainment applications will be the key. If anything will pull in the hol
33、douts, its going to be applications that make the Internet more similar to pay-TV,” he predicted.56. What does the underlined word “holdouts” in the first paragraph most probably mean?A. some American familiesB. those who hold out ones opinionsC. those who have been surveyedD. those who still havent
34、 access to the Internet currently57.

37、lops with technologyB. The present situation of webC. Many Americans see little point to webD. It is urgent to promote web serviceBAgainst the supposition than forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees al
38、low more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions. Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that wi
39、th climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warming, while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires in
40、fluence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhous
41、e gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone（臭氧）levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the
42、fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling.“We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.” Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving th
43、e climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth
44、and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the earth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to
45、 measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.61. According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires may _.A. result in a warming climateB. cause the forest fires to occur more frequentlyC. lead to a longer fire seasonD. protect the forests and the envi
46、ronment there62. The following are all the immediate effects after a forest fire EXCEPT _.A. large amounts of greenhouse gases enter the atmosphereB. the levels of ozone which is a type of oxygen increaseC. snow on the ground mirrors more sunlight back into spaceD. ashes from the fire fall on the ic
47、e surface and take in more radiation from the sun63. Earlier studies about northern forest fires _.A. analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climateB. indicate that forest fires will pollute the atmosphereC. suggest that people should take measures to protect environmentD. suggest that
48、the fires will speed up climate warming64. The underlined phrase “soak up” in the last paragraph most probably means _.A. releasedB. absorbedC. createdD. distributed65. From the passage we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia may _.A. warm the climate as the supposit
49、ion goesB. allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climateC. destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far-off sea iceD. help to gain more energy rather than release more energyCKincaid looked at his watch: eight-seventeen.

On the contrary, it can be the beginning of an interesting learning process. Conflicts mean that people care enough
65、 to disagree strongly. The trick is not to allow the conflict to go on forever.Handle conflicts sooner rather than later. Solve a conflict when it starts, as it only gets worse with time going by.

People have different opinions on it.Some people think that the post-90s generation are confident, ambitious an
75、d independent in thinking. They are fond of new things, ready to accept and try them. Whats more, they have many new ideas, which makes them more creative. Its especially worth mentioning that they are enthusiastic and caring. They treasure friendship and are good at communicating with others.Howeve
76、r, others argue that the post-90s generation are too self-centered and dependent on their parents in life or teachers in study. They tend to live a comfortable life but are less able to overcome frustration. Besides, some of them lack the sense of responsibility and dont know how to show gratitude t
77、o others. Worse still, many are so weak in controlling themselves that they are often addicted to the Internet.As a member of them, I think we post-90s generation should be aware of our own strengths and weaknesses, so that we can put emphasis on perfecting ourselves. Only in this way can we gain respect and faith from others.
