Life in the Internet age is lonely—or is it? That's what experts in human interaction（交往）are debating（争论) after a new Stanford University survey has been published. According to the study, the more time people spend online, the less they can spare for reallife relationships with family and friends. The researchers asked 113 people about the Web's influence on daily activities. 36% of those people are online for more than five hours a week. "As Internet use becomes more widespread, it will have an increasingly isolating(孤立的) effect on society," says Robert Kraut, one of the researchers. Scholars (学者)and Web lovers criticized（批评）the study for stretching its data to make the "isolating" point. While 13% of regular Web users admitted the loss of time with loved ones, 60% reported watching less TV. The survey also shows that email is the most popular online activity. If some of webheads(网虫) spend what was once passive TV time keeping company with friends via emails, "that's a move towards greater connectedness," says Paul Resnick, a professor at the University of Michigan. This isn't the first claim that the Web should be criticized. A 1998 report monitored 73 Pittsburgh-area families' Net use for a year. People who used the Internet more "talked less to family members and reported being lonelier and more depressed," says Robert Kraut. "It's true that there have been big declines in social connectedness over the past decades, but those declines began before the Internet was invented," says Thomas Putnam. As Amitay Etzioni says, the Internet gives us a different kind of social life—not better or worse than before, but just different. 1.Who claimed that the Web had negative influence? A.Robert Kraut. B.Paul Resnick. C.Thomas Putnam. D.Amitay Etzioni. 2.The underlined word "This" in Para. 4 refers to _______. A.the study conducted by Stanford University B.the survey made by the University of Michigan C.the conclusion in a report written in 1998 D.the opinion expressed in Bowling Alone 3.From the passage we learn that _______. A.watching TV used to take time away from staying online B.36 % of Web users spend more than five hours a week online C.the Web was blamed more than once for causing an isolating effect D.the Web has the same influence as telephones and televisions

I don’t realize that I’ve been at college for nearly one and half year until now. Looking back into the last year, what shall I say? It consisted of both happiness and sadness. Life always goes like this, up and down, as is so exciting. Now when I recall the past, no matter how I felt at that time, they are all treasures for me. That was the moon festival last year, which was also the first time we went out after we entered the college. It was said that the sea in Dalian was well-known and was also a wonderful place to watch the moon. After getting all the food and drinking ready, we four girls set off for the seaside. There were many people and we picked up a less crowded beach. At first, we enjoyed ourselves by drinking and eating. When the moon turned brighter, we played with the seawater. As a result, we were all drenched with water. Bathing in the moonlight, we ran and laughed. We seemed to land on another world, where was full of fresh air, laughter and love. The laughter is still echoing(回响) on my mind so far. Life doesn’t stay the same, occasionally having a particular taste. That is sadness. What impressed me deeply is a failure in a singing competition. It was the first time I had given a performance on such a large stage in front of so many people. I was so nervous that the whole song was performed out of tune. As you could imagine, I was greeted with boos from the audience. I still remembered how dismal I felt that moment and I sat alone crying at the seaside. After that, I talked to mother about it. She told me that it was not a failure; at least, I was brave enough to show myself publicly. Everything has passed. I’ve stored them at the bottom of my heart. I am in the second grade already. Yet much needs me to challenge. On the way, there's both happiness and distress. However, I will go ahead just all the same. 1.The author of the text is ______. A.a boy B.a girl C.the passage doesn’t say D.none of the above 2.The underlined word “drenched” in the second paragraph has a similar meaning with ______. A.dried B.wet C.frozen D.washed away 3.Life, according to the author, is ______. A.full of happiness B.filled with sadness C.made up of laughter and tears D.not worth living 4.How did the audience find the author’s singing? A.It was wonderful B.It was disappointing C.The passage doesn’t say D.It was perfect 5.Which of the following shows the author’s attitude towards future? A.A friend in need is a friend indeed. B.Do wrong once and you’ll never hear the end of it. C.Where there is a will, there is a way. D.Time and tide wait for no man.

Winter begins in the north on December 22nd. People and animals have been doing what they always do to prepare for the colder months. Squirrels (松鼠), for example, have been busy gathering nuts from trees. Well, scientists have been busy gathering information about what the squirrels do with the food they collect. They examined differences between red squirrels and gray squirrels in the American state of Indiana. The scientists wanted to know how these differences could affect the growth of black walnut (黑胡桃) trees. The black walnut is the nut of choice for both kinds of squirrels. The black walnut tree is also a central part of some hardwood forests. Rob Swihart of Purdue University did the study with Jake Goheen, a former Purdue student now at the University of New Mexico. The two researchers estimate that several times as many walnuts grow when gathered by gray squirrels as compared to red squirrels. Gray squirrels and red squirrels do not store nuts and seeds in the same way. Gray squirrels bury nuts one at a time in a number of places. But they seldom remember where they buried every nut. So some nuts remain in the ground. Conditions are right for them to develop and grow the following spring. Red squirrels, however, store large groups of nuts above ground. Professor Swihart calls “death traps for seeds”. Gray squirrels are native to Indiana. But Professor Swihart says their numbers began to decrease as more forests were cut for agriculture. Red squirrels began to spread through the state during the past century. The researchers say red squirrels are native to forests that stay green all year, unlike walnut trees. They say the cleaning of forest land for agriculture has helped red squirrels invade Indiana. Jake Goheen calls them a sign of an environmental problem more than a cause. 1.The study done by Rob Swihart and Jake Goheen is to ________. A.find out the living conditions for squirrels B.learn squirrels’ influence on black walnut trees C.do something to get rid of squirrels D.save the forests in the American state of Indiana 2.The difference between gray squirrels and red squirrels mainly lies in ________. A.the way they gather the walnut B.the time they have winter sleep C.the place they have winter sleep D.the place they store the walnuts 3.When Professor Swihart says “death traps for seeds”, he actually means that ________. A.red squirrels eat more nuts than gray squirrels B.gray squirrels and red squirrels will have severe fights C.nuts above the ground will not develop into plants D.seeds can be traps for other animals in the forest 4.According to the passage, which of the following is true? A.The black walnut is equally attractive to both gray and red squirrels. B.Gray squirrels do more harm to the forest than red squirrels. C.Red squirrels and gray squirrels have helped the spread of walnut trees. D.The cleaning of forest land benefits red squirrels directly.
