While we are still children ,most of us live at home with our parents, more or less peacefully . But as we become teenagers , things change ,and we begin to grow apart from our parents . This means we are almost ready to leave the house where we grew up and make a new home of our own .
All humans must do this ,but they don’t all do it in the same way . If ,for instance ,you belong to a primitive tribe (原始部落) ,then as you grew up ,you’d learn the skills you needed as an adult---how to catch fish ,how to keep the house and look after children . You would be ready to marry in your early teens and you would build a house and live near your family in the village.
This seems a very old way of life , but it is what humans have been used to through hundreds of years. And it is what we are still used to in the 21st century ,for man hasn’t changed in the short time since he became civilized(文明的). But could you leave home and look after yourself during the teen years ? Most people would not do very well . Why ? Because although man hasn’t changed very much , the society he lives in has changed greatly ,which means that we have to learn more and more before we are ready to leave our parents’ shelter( 居所 ) and live alone .
However ,sometimes it is very frustrating to live at parents’ home . Parents can be very upset about late nights ,criticizing friends and always saying that we are noisy and dirty . But we still need our emotional (情感的) shelter till we finish our studies , and that is why we usually stay in our parents’ home until we feel grown up enough to deal with living alone .
小題1:When does the relationship with parents start changing ?
A.When we are children.B.When we become teenagers.
C.When we are alone.D.When we get married.
小題2:For most teenagers of the 21st century ,making a new home of their own may be ________.
A.difficultB.unimportant
C.impossibleD.quite easy
小題3:Why must we know more to be able to live alone ?
A.Because we are becoming less talented.
B.Because our society has changed a lot.
C.Because not enough is taught in our schools.
D.Because man has never really been civilized.
小題4:From the passage ,we know living at parents’ home when we become teenagers _______.
A.is always pleasantB.must be very exciting
C.makes us feel lonelyD.may be annoying

小題1:B
小題2:A
小題3:B
小題4:D

Being able to multitask-- doing several things at the same time--is considered a welcome skill by most people. But if we consider the situation of the young people aged from eight to eighteen, we should think again.
What we often see nowadays is that young people juggle a larger number of electronic products as they study. While working, they also surf on the Internet, send out emails, answer the telephone and listen to music on their iPods. In a sense, they are spending a large amount of time in fruitless efforts as they multitask.
Multitasking is even changing the relationship between family members. As young people give so much attention to their own worlds, they seem to have no time to spend with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house, nor can they eat at the family table.
Multitasking also has an effect on young people's performance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the effects of modern gadgets (器具) on their performance of tasks, many young people gave a positive (肯定的) answer. However, the response from the worlds of education and business was not quite as positive. Educators feel that multitasking by children has a serious effect on later development of study skills. They believe that many college students now need help to improve their study skills. Similarly, employers (雇主) feel that young people entering the job market need to be taught all over again, as modern gadgets have made it unnecessary for them to learn special skills to do their work.
小題1:What does the underlined word "juggle" most probably mean?
A.Want to buy.
B.Use at the same time.
C.Take the place of.
D.Search information from.
小題2:In Paragraph 3, the author points out that ________.
A.family members do not greet each other
B.family members do not eat at the family table
C.young people get on well with their families
D.young people hardly communicate with their family members
小題3:What's the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.Young people must learn skills for future jobs.
B.Young people benefit (獲益) a lot from modern gadgets.
C.Multitasking is an important skill to young people.
D.Multitasking influences young people's development seriously.
小題4:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Young people think multitasking is good for their study and work.
B.Employers consider it unnecessary for young people to be taught all over again.
C.Educators feel that young people don't need to improve their study skills.
D.People from the world of education believe multitasking has a good effect on children's later study skills.
小題5:The author develops (闡述) the passage mainly by ________.
A.providing special examples
B.following the natural time order
C.giving out a cause and analyzing (分析) its effects
D.comparing opinions from different worlds

"Chinese style road crossing" is a hot topic in China. Many cities have started to punish these jaywalkers.
"Chinese style road crossing" means that you cross roads with lots of people and you don't think about traffic lights at all.
Beijing government announced that people who do not wait for the green light to cross the road will receive a fine of 10 yuan. What’s more, using the diagonal to cross the road is also against the rules. Walkers should walk in an "L" shape. Besides Beijing, many places have also taken steps to stop "Chinese style road crossing". Provinces such as Sichuan, Shanxi and Zhejiang have already started to fine jaywalkers 5 to 50 yuan since last year. This punishment can call on people to realize the importance of traffic safety. However, many people complain that the red lights last too long. "Everyone should follow the rules, or the country will lose its order," said People Daily.

Experts(專家) say that students usually need eight to ten hours' sleep at night, but most Chinese students do not get enough sleep. Some Chinese parents usually feel happy to see their children studying late. They will think their children work very hard.
But not all parents think about this. Once a mother told us that every morning her l0-year-old boy puts up one finger with his eyes still closed, begging(乞求)one more minute to sleep. Like thousands of student "Early Birds " in China, he has to get up before six every morning.
A report shows that if(如果) they don't have a good night's sleep, students will be tired(疲倦)next day. Many students have fallen asleep (入睡) during classes. Too much homework is not the only reason(原因) why students stay up late. Some watch TV or play games late in the night.
Experts ever say that students should develop (養(yǎng)成)good study habits. So some smart students never study late, and they can also work well in class.
