11.You arrive on time at the Smith's house to babysit three-year-old Max.When Mrs.Smith invites you into the house,you find Max sitting on the floor with an iPad.You look around for a book,and then you realize the iPad is teaching him how to read through a series of songs and games.Mrs.Smith looks as though she couldn't be prouder of her son for playing such educational games.
Technology is becoming more important in our everyday life.From playing a game to asking Sir for directions to a restaurant,we are depending heavily on our handheld device.Companies such as Fisher-Price and Open Solutions are making apps such as"Laugh and Learn","Baby Hear and Read"and"Baby's First Puzzle"These apps are marketed to parents and their babies.Some companies say that their apps will help the baby learn to read while others promise skills such as identifying shapes and sounds.Many parents say that these games have helped their children a lot.
Recently the campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood,a Boston-based group,has been accusing companies,who make these supposedly educational games,of false advertising.The campaign believes that these games are doing very little to improve the education of young children.
"What babies need for healthy brain development is active play,hand-on creative play and face-to-face interaction."says Susan Linn,the group's director.This means that when you are babysitting little Max,you should play board games with him or games that require him to use his own imagination.This will help him to learn not only skills that the games teach him,but he will learn social skills.The American Academy of Pediatrics agrees with Linn,discouraging any electronic time for babies under 2,while older children should be limited to one to two hours a day.

21.We can learn that many parents think the apps such as"Laugh and Learn"areD.
A.dull to use            B.complex to operate
C.expensive to buy       D.beneficial to possess
22.Which of the following may Susan Linn agree with?C
A.The iPad will soon take the place of babysitters.
B.Baby's First Puzzle is a good choice for parents.
C.Babies should stay away from these learning apps.
D.The apps from Fisher-Price can teach children a lot.
23.What a babysitter really needs to do is toC.
A.buy more educational apps from markets
B.turn to Commercial-Free Childhood for help
C.create more activities that children can take part in
D.encourage more kids to discover more electronic games
24.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?B
A.Fun educational apps for education
B.Learning apps:Do they really help?
C.Is modern technology improving our lives?
D.The campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood.

2.piness is not always the final result.So how does one decide which goals will end in personal happiness and which will not?How do the things in life affect personal happiness?
The most important thing is people's attitude toward life,which can greatly affect their personal levels of happiness and satisfaction with life.
Psychologists have known for some time that optimism is a good way to fight against unhappiness.It's probably no secret that optimistic people are considered to be much happier people than pessimists.There are specific characteristic features optimists have (pleasant ways of thinking),that bring them more success,greater health,increased life satisfaction,and other good things.If you became an optimist,it can mean that you became a very happy person,despite your circumstances,and it can actually bring more things into your life to be happy about.‘If you are optimistic and you think life is going to get better,it will become a self-fulfillment prediction.'says one of the scientists.‘Happy people manage to look on the bright side,even if they meet big problems on their way.'
 Positive psychologists believe that people can learn how to become happy,that everyone can teach themselves to see a half empty glass as half full.All they have to do is to spend time thinking about all the things that have gone right for them,rather than complaining what has gone badly.But people who are depressed usually think and worry about something that went wrong in the past.
81.What can affect people's personal levels of happiness according to the passage?
(No more than 5 words)People's attitude toward life.
82.Why are some people depressed according to the study?(No more than 14 words) 
They think and worry about something that went wrong in the past.
83.How do happy people deal with the big problems in their life?(No more than 8 words)They usually look on the bright side./By looking on the bright side.
84.What is the main idea of the passage?(No more than 10 words)How being optimistic or happy can affect your life./How your outlook on life can affect your life..
