The Internet has become a part of teenage life.
A new report on 3,375 students aged from 10 to 18 in seven Chinese cities found that 38 percent of them believe they use the Internet often.
While most of them get useful information and use the Internet to help in their studies, some are not using it in a good way.
In order to help young people use the Internet in a good way, a textbook on good Internet behavior has started to be used in some Shanghai middle schools this term. The book uses real examples to teach students good ways of using the Internet. The book gives useful advice such as it’s good to read news or find helpful information to study.
Some students also make on-line friends. But if you are meeting a friend off-line, make sure your parents know. Teachers and parents think the book is of great help. A teacher said the book would be a guide for teens using the Internet. She believes it will keep students away from bad sites. “Many students are using the Internet without guidance from their parents,” she said. “The book will teach students how to be a good person in the on-line world.”

B. how to study through the Internet

Early in the 16th century men were trying to reach Asia by traveling west from Europe. In order to find Asia they had to find a way past South America. The man who finally found the way from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific was Ferdinand Magellan. Magellan sailed from Seville in August, 1519 with five ships and about 280 men. Fourteen months later, after spending the cold winter on the coast of Patagonia, he discovered the channel which is now called Magellan Strait(海峡). In November, 1520, after many months of dangers from rocks and storms, the three remaining ships entered the ocean on the other side of South America.
They then continued, hoping to reach Asia. But they did not see any land until they reached the islands off the coast of Asia. Before they arrived at these islands, later known as the Philippines, men were dying of starvation. While they were staying in the Philippines, Magellan was killed in battle. The remaining officers then had to get back to Spain. They decided to sail round Africa. After many difficulties, one ship with eighteen men sailed into Seville three years after leaving. They were all that remained of Magellan’s expedition. However, their achievement was great. They were the first men to sail round the world.
59. The purpose of Magellan’s exped ition was to ________.
A. sail round the world
B. find a seaway from the Atlantic to the Pacific
C. make a voyage to Asia
D. carry men to Philippines
60. The number of the ships lost on the whole expedition was ________.
A. two
B. three
C. four
D. five
61. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage
concerning the expedition?
A. Lack of equipment.
B. Cold winter in Patagonia.
C. The death of Magellan.

Living abroad to study can certainly be an interesting experience but is that alone a good enough reason for spending years far away from home? To make the experience truly worthwhile, there has to be a goal behind the decision to study abroad. This may be a wish to perfect language skills in a foreign language environment, or a clever move in your career development. You must also consider the costs, not just of living and studying abroad, but of applying. Most universities now charge application fees for international students.
If after considering these points you are sure that you want to apply to study abroad, your next step is to choose the right programme of studies. Research your choices and select carefully. You must do your homework well. Most universities have information online but you can also email and ask them to send you more details. You can find a lot of information on school ranking from education websites. But read carefully. Different universities emphasize different strengths. Don’t just think about the university’s reputation (名声); look for the most suitable for your goals.
Next, you must deal with a large pile of paperwork. This involves filling in application form, preparing your school records, and getting reference letters. Reading the instructions and requirements of the universities carefully is of great importance. Sadly, many fine applicants get kicked out in the first round, simply because they don’t follow the application procedure properly.
Money is another important consideration. Some scholarships are provided by governments, others by schools and colleges. This information, again, can be found on the Internet. If you find a scholarship that is suitable for you, follow the application procedure carefully; the earlier you apply, the better your chance of getting it.
63.According to the article, studying abroad is truly worthwhile because ______.
A. it is a chance to develop your career
B. it is an interesting experience
C. it is fun to travel around the world
D. all your friends are doing so
64.A school ranking list tells you ______.
A. the names of all the professors
B. how good the school is compared to others
C. how much the courses cost
D. where the school is located
65.What are the three basic steps when you apply?
A. Buy an airplane ticket, read the instructions and requirements, and study.
B. Write a reference letter, do paperwork, and study.
C. Prepare reference letters, prepare school records, and fill in the application form.
D. Prepare school records, do paperwork, and work hard.
66.The underlined phrase “get kicked out in the first round” in Paragraph 3 means ______.
A. lose money in the first round
B. get accepted in the next round
C. fail to get to the next round
D. get kicked by a professor
D
Surgery(外科,手术) that can improve the way a person looks is being more and more popular in the United Stated. This kind of surgery is called cosmetic(整形) surgery, and both men and women are turning to this treatment as a way of keeping their appearance young as well as keeping competitive in their jobs. Men especially are beginning to turn to face-lifts, liposuction (taking fat out of the body), and implants (putting man-made parts into their bodies) to help them look younger. As companies downsize and move younger employees into higher positions, older employees in their late forties and early fifties feel the need to look and act younger in order to stay competitive. A younger look through cosmetic surgery may give an older employee a few more years on the job.
These operations are not without dangers, however. One young woman had an eye operation to get rid of the bags under her eyes. She described her experience as terrible. She said, “When he started cutting, I was fully awake. Even though he’d given me an inj ection(注射) near my eyes, I saw everything.” She went on to explain, “I knew I had to keep still because of what he was doing. He was removing fat under my eyes. It took about ten minutes. After he finished I felt I couldn’t walk. I was so weak.” Her troubles did not end after the operation. For two weeks, her eyes were swollen and almost completely closed, and even dark glasses could not hide the side effects of the operation.
Liposuction is probably the most popular cosmetic operation in the United States. It seems simple enough. First, a small cut is made over the places where the patient wants the fat removed. Next, a small pipe is put into the cut. A machine is then turned on, and the fat is taken right out of the body. However, as one doctor explained, some problems can happen after the operation.
He warned, “Irregular lumps(块) and loose skin can result from this operation. If it is not completely done, liposuction can produ ce a very lumpy result.” Patients often must have more liposuctions to correct the problem.
67. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. Some people want to have cosmetic surgery in order to keep their jobs.
B. There are two reasons why people have cosmetic surgery.
C. How older employees try to stay on their jobs for more years.
D. A person can win the competition in the job by means of looking young.
68. How many kinds of cosmetic surgeries does the writer mention?
A. 5
B. 4
C. 3
D. 2
69. The underlined word “downsize” (in Para. 1) means _______.
A. develop branches and employ more laborers
B. become smaller in the number of employees
C. move downwards to other places
D. put an end to business
70. What do we know about liposuction from the passage?
A. An unsuccessful liposuction may lead to more operations.
B. Most liposuction operations are successful and safe.
C. A liposuction can be lifelong useful for people to stay young.
D. A bad liposuction needs more doctors to make it up.

Once kids hit the teenage years, parenting becomes more difficult than ever. Establishing （建立）effective house rules is one of the best ways to educate teenagers. House rules must respect teenagers’ desire to be independent and make sure they behave responsibly.
How can effective house rules be established?
First of all, get your teenager to take part in making the rules, which can help keep them motivated to follow them. Ask their opinion about what sorts of things they think are important when creating the rules and try to include some of their ideas.
When creating the list of rules, don’t list every single rule imaginable. Instead, try to limit it to the ten most important rules. I’ve seen some parents come up with several page s of rules which turn out to be more like a rule book rather than a list. Remember, it is important to make the list easy to remember and to be a basic guide.
Then, it is important that you write out the list of rules and hang them in a prominent (显眼的) location. Keeping the rules on the refrigerator or displayed somewhere where everyone can see them is a good reminder. Revise the rules whenever there’s a need, not very frequently though.
Explain clearly in advance what negative result will be in store when a rule gets broken. But ensure that none of your results are equal to abusive parenting. For example, take off the rule that says —“if you don’t get home by 11 at night, make arrangements to stay elsewhere until morning”. Let helping with small household chores like cleaning up their own rooms serve as a result of breaking rules.
Follow these tips on establishing effective house rules accompanied by constant positive reinforcement (执行),and you will see the improvement in your teenager’s behavior. Hope you
can direct your teenager to become a responsible and independent person with the help of house rules!
