The Best of Friends
The evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly held image(印象)of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.
An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past.” We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seen to be about their families,” said one member of the research team.” They’re expected to be rebellious(叛逆的) and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There’s more negotiation(商議) and discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don’t want to rock the boat.”
So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends.” My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,” says 17-years-old Daniel Lazall. ”I always tell them when I’m going out clubbing. As long as they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with it.” Susan Crome, who is now 21,agrees.”Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”
Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenagers rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments,” Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over.”
【小題1】What is the popular images of teenagers today?

A．They worry about school

C．They have to be locked in to avoid troubles
D．They quarrel a lot with other family members
【小題2】The study shows that teenagers don’t want to ___
A．share family responsibilityB．cause trouble in their families
C．go boating with their familyD．make family decisions
【小題3】Compared with parents of 30 years ago, today’s parents___.
A．go to clubs more often with their children
B．a(chǎn)re much stricter with their children
C．care less about their children’s life
D．give their children more freedom
【小題4】According to the authour,teenage rebellion____.
A．may be a false beliefB．is common nowadays
C．existed only in the 1960sD．resulted from changes in families
【小題5】What is the passage mainly about?

What color do you like best? Do you like yellow, orange and red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, or an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grey and blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are likely to be strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists （心理學(xué)家）tell us. They have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effects that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don’t choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you do so as soon as you open your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
　　Black is depressing while light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one does, and a red dress adds warmth and cheer to sad winter days. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark grey.
　　Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a few colorful things. Also remember that you will know your friends (and your enemies) better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don’t forget that anyone can guess a lot about you when you choose a piece of handkerchief.
67. 【小題1】According to the passage, men’s 110-meter hurdles Olympic champion and world record holder Liu Xiang is most likely to love the color ______.

A．blackB．greyC．greenD．brown
68. 【小題2】Why are machines painted orange in some factories, according to the passage?
A．Because workers tend to prefer orange to other colors.
B．Because other colors are forbidden in factories.
C．Because less accidents happen due to the introduction of orange machines.
D．Because orange machines are easier to clean.
69. 【小題3】Which of the following statements is Not true according to the passage?
A．It’s possible to cheer you up by enjoying some colorful pictures.
B．You can know your friends better through the color they like or dislike.
C．Some people are born with their colorful preference.
D．One’s color preference is always changeable.
70. 【小題4】The underlined word ‘depressing’ in Paragraph 2 probably means ‘______’.
A．discouragingB．happy
C．surprisingD．brave

Just put your special clothes on in the morning and you could jump 3 meters into the air and even carry more than 60 kilograms without getting tired. The walk to school would be very, very easy. Such supercharged clothing is one of the products that could be created using "wearable robotics” technology.
Designed to improve a person's senses and skills, the device could be as simple as a hearing aid. Or it could be a full-body suit that senses what you're going to do, then helps you do it better.
“A superman suit would be the final result in wearable robot i cs ”，s a id Francois Pin, head of robot­ics and energy systems at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory(橡樹(shù)林國(guó)家實(shí)驗(yàn)室), US. While these suits are at least ten years away, in some areas the technology is already in use.
Researchers are developing artificial- arms and legs that allow old，disabled or injured people to move freely. Thus US Army is interested in using wearable robot legs to help soldiers run faster, carry more equipment and be stronger in battle. Jobs that involve lifting heavy loads or saving lives from the rubble of an earthquake could also become much easier.
A robot is a device that responds to a command. You're probably with simple robots, such as toy cars or airplanes that respond to buttons you push on a remote control.
Wearable robotics goes further. Instead of just receiving information through a wire or remotecontrol- the robotic device can send information back to its controller.
Suppose you wore a sleeve that has sensors where your joints are. Every time you move your arm, the sleeve senses your movements and sends the information to a robot, which then moves its arm just as you did. When the robot hits or touches something, it sends a signal back to the sleeve and you sense the action.
In this way，scientists are working to wrap the robot around the person. Their goal is to make the sleeve, shoe or suit help you do what you want to do.
【小題1】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “supercharged” in Paragraph One?
A, expensive      B. overcharged C. advanced     D. full of electricity
【小題2】Products resulting from this wearable robotics technology do not include _______. 

A．remote controlsB．hearing aidsC．wearable robot legsD．superman suits
【小題3】From the passage, we can infer that        .
A．it will be ten years before robotic devices are in use
B．the wearable robotics technology has been employed in some areas
C．the robots in the robotic devices will do whatever you want to do
D．people must become lazier and less healthier in the future
