[1] I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day. But I became in visible, absent from the conversation.
[2] The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Recently I was in a car with three friends. The driver told us to be quiet because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell phone. There we were, four friends going down the highway, unable to talk to one another because of a tool designed to make communication easier.
[3]Why is it that the more connected we get, ________________________ ? Every advance in communications technology is a hurt to the closeness of human interaction (互動). With e-mail and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone.
[4] More and more. l find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn’t really have time to talk. The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier.
[5] So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell-phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I' m home.

_____________________________________________________________________________
79. Does the author restrict his own activity to improving the situation? (within 15 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
80. Translate the underlined sentences in Paragraph 4 into Chinese.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
76. The cell phone gets in the way of face?to?face communication./Communications technology is interfering with human contact. / It does harm to the closeness of human interaction. / It is a hurt to the closeness of human interaction.?
77. But I became invisible, absent from the conversation.?
78. the more disconnected I feel/ the lonelier we feel/ the farther away we seem to be/the more left out we feel?
79. Yes. For example, he doesn’t contact people living near him with instant messaging.  / Yes. For example, he doesn’t use his cell?phone in the presence of friends.  / Yes. He doesn’t let the voice mail pick up when he is at home.
80. 我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己越來越頻繁地借用電子郵件回避面對面交談。/ 越來越多地，我發(fā)現(xiàn)本應該用對話交流來解決的事情，自己卻用不用露面的電子郵件來做。/ 本該通過對話交流來解決的事情，我卻發(fā)現(xiàn)自己越來越多地通過不用當面交談的電子郵件來做。?

For years I wanted a flower garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.
But then we had Matthew. And Marvin. And the twins, Alisa and Alan. And then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was tight, as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I'd have to say, "Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees, you know."
Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about having a garden.
I wasn't sure, though. I mean, gardens do cost money, and after all these years I was used to living on a pretty lean, no-frills budget.
Then, one spring morning, on Mother's Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I realized that cars were tooting their horns as they drove by. I looked out the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow, because I saw things blowing around on all its branches. Then I put my glasses on - and I couldn't believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard!
I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, taped all over that tree. Think of all the garden flowers I could buy with one hundred dollars! There was also a note attached: "IOU eight hours of digging time. Love, Marvin."
Marvin kept his promise, too. He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen foot bed for me. And my other children bought me tools, ornaments, a trellis (棚架), a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.
That was three years ago. My garden's now very pretty, just like I wanted. When I go out and weed or tend my flowers, I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they're right there with me.
I live up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where winters are long and cold, and summers are too short. But every year now, when winter sets in, I look out my window and think of the flowers I'll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes - every time.
I'm still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does!
小題1:By saying “Do you see a money tree outside .….,” the mother actually means “    ”
A．Observation is the best teacher.
B．Seeing is believing.
C．The outsider sees the most of the game.
D．It is not easy to gain money
小題2:The best title for the passage would probably be          .
A．My flower gardenB．Marvin helps to realize my dream
C．Love in MichiganD．Money grows on trees
小題3:The underlined word “no - frills” in the fifth paragraphs is similar in meaning to        .
A．wastefulB．tightC．a(chǎn)bsurdD．helpful
小題4:From the last but the third paragraph we can infer that the mother is         .
A．divorced when she was youngB．not caring for her kids any longer
C．a(chǎn)lone but not at all lonelyD．prouder with her garden than with her kids.

I was riding along the road when I heard someone shouting behind me. It was a young shepherd (牧羊人). He was running across a field, and pointing at something.
I looked and saw two wolves running across the field. One was fully grown, the other was a cub. The cub had on his back a lamb (羔羊) which had just been killed, and he had the leg in his mouth. The old wolf was running behind.
As soon as I saw the wolves, I joined the shepherd and started in pursuit (追擊), setting up a shout.
When they heard, some peasants started out also in pursuit, with their dogs.
As soon as the old wolf caught sight of the dogs and the men, he ran to the young one, snatched (攫取) the lamb from him, threw it over his back, and both wolves increased their pace and were soon lost from view.
