You can’t see any object unless light from that object gets into your eyes．Some of the things you see give off light of their own。The sun，the stars，a lighted lamp are the examples that can be seen by their own light．But most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own．They are just reflecting(反射)light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies．The moon，for example，doesn’t give off any light of its own．It is not 1uminous．You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of the sunlight reflects on the earth．So moonlight is only second—hand sunlight．
When you look at a book，it sends some of the light which fails on it to your eyes，and you see the book．If light could be kept out from where you’re so that there would be no light from the book to reflect．Then you couldn’t see the book even with your eyes wide open．Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you’re reading to your eyes is as short as if there were no time at time．Light reaches us from the moon，which is about 380，000 kilometres away，in only a little more than a second．
小題1:You can see the book because________．
A．your eyes are close to itB．it reflects some of the light
C．it has light of its ownD．it is big enough to be seen
小題2:The Chinese meaning of the world“l(fā)uminous”is close to_______．
A．閃光的B．看不見的C．發(fā)光的D．明亮的
小題3:________has light of its own．
A．The moonB．The earthC．The sunD．The satellite of Dong Fong Hong
小題4:Light travels about_________kilometers per second．
A．300，000B．100，000C．400，000D．190，000
小題5:Which of the following is TRUE?
A．All the things you can see give off light．
B．Light from the book is much faster than that from the moon．
C．The moment you open your eyes，the light from the book travels to your eyes．
D．Light travels so fast that there is no time for you to read．

Recently a specialist(專家) in teenager studies does some research on teenage problems. He thinks parents shouldn’t be blamed of themselves because there is nothing they can do to deal with the teenage problem. Whatever they do, sometimes a wonderful, kind and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.
I’ve seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, should stand up, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman whenever anyone entered the room. I saw him last week when I visited them. Lying on the sofa, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in. His mother was angry. “I don’t know what to do with him these days,” she said. “He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.”
He hasn’t forgotten them. He’s just decided that he’s not going to use them. She said that she would like to throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.
Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I don’t like your dress, it’s ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.
“Where did we go wrong?” Her parents are now very sad. Probably nothing is wrong with the parents.

If you take away many sentences from somebody's written work as your own without permission, it's called plagiarism，but if you take the knowledge from a piece of work by another and change the words, then it's not plagiarism. This is the difference between using the Internet and plagiarism. If you are given homework to work out math problems, then you should use your brain without a computer! If the teacher asks you to learn something about a famous literary person, you can use the computer. If you take down the main important information of the task, it’s OK. However, if you run to the computer to do your thinking for you all the time, you don’t exercise your brain and you will forget how to work out a problem. By using a computer, students may get a useful answer fast, to finish homework, but when they have to face an exam, they will not be ready for it.
Though teachers say finding or buying homework answers online is not many in schools, an interview with school students shows only 10% hopes to finish their holiday homework by themselves. They complain that the homework is too much for them to finish. Besides, many of students have to go to all kinds of training classes during the holiday. These take away much of their time for doing homework. So they want to find or even buy answers online or copy each other's homework. Students should learn that being a student is about getting skills, but not just getting quick, cheap "answers" for homework problems. I mean we should use the computer properly.
小題1:If you want to look up some information about something or somebody, you____.
A．should work it out by yourself
B．can turn to a computer for help
C．must discuss it with your teacher
D．will meet problems with plagiarism
小題2:Which belongs to plagiarism according to the text?
A．Answering questions in our own words.
B．Buying homework answers on the Internet.
C．Copying others’ written work without permission.
D．Doing our homework with the help of a computer.
小題3:Which is NOT the reason why the students hope to buy homework answers online?
A．The answers are cheap and quick.
B．They can exercise their brains all the time.
C．They have to go to all kinds of training classes during the holiday.
D．They have too much homework to finish.
小題4:What's the author's attitude towards using the computer for homework answers?
A．Using it for math problems.
B．Using it all the time for the homework.
C．Using it to get some information on the answers.
D．Using it when there's too much homework to finish.
