Teachers say the digital age has had a good influence and a not-so-good influence on this generation of American teenagers. More than 2,000 high school teachers took an online survey.

75 percent of the teachers said the Internet and digital search tools have had a “mostly positive” effect on their students' research habits and skills. But 87 percent agreed that these technologies "make the students not have enough attention.” And 64 percent said the technologies “do more to distract students than to help them academically.”Many students think “doing research” now means just doing a quick search on Google.

Judy Buchanan is a director of the National Writing Project. Ms. Buchanan says digital research tools are helping students learn more, and learn faster. Teachers really like these tools, because they are ways to make some of learning exciting. Young people enjoy using these tools. And the goal is to help them become creative students of meaningful work, and not just that kind of copyist.

But one problem the survey found is that many students don't have a good understanding of how to use the digital knowledge well. In other words, they trust(信任) too much of the information. Judy Buchanan says these students have not developed the skills they need to tell whether the online information is good or bad.

Another problem the survey found is something that might not seem like a problem, at all, being able to quickly find information online. Teachers say the ability of their students to work hard to find answers is becoming weaker. They say students depend too much on search engines (引擎) and do not make enough use of printed books or research, librarians.

Besides, many teachers are also worried about the problem that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others, instead of using their own abilities.

1.Most of the teachers might agree that .

A. the digital age only has had a good influence on teenagers.

B. digital search tools have had a positive effect on students’ research.

C. the digital age has had a bad influence on students’ study.

D. technologies can only distract students.

2.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. Google can do all the job for students.

B. Google helps students do research.

C. Students just use something they found online when doing research.

D. A quick search on Google means a success in research.

3.Which of the following is NOT the disadvantages of digital age?

A. Online information may not be reliable.

B. Students can easily find the information they needs.

C. Copying work may arise among students.

D. Students won’t use their own abilities.

7.Gift from a stranger
My local supermarket is always busy.The first parking space I found was convenient,but I'd noticed a woman in a blue car circling for a while.(25)As/Because/Since I was in a good mood,I let her have it.On the edge of the car park I backed into the next available spot-it was a tight fit.
Pretty soon I'd made my way through the supermarket and was back in the fresh air.Feeling good,I (26)emptied (empty) my purse change into the hands of a homeless man and helped a struggling woman reverse park.
Just as I approached my car,1saw the woman I'd let have my car space earlier.She was giving me (27)an odd look-half puzzled,half intent (熱切的).I smiled and wished her a pleasant day.As I squeezed back into my car,I spotted the same lady (28)looking (look) in at me."Hello,"she said,hesitantly."This (29)might/may sound crazy but I was on my way to drop some of my mother's things off at the charity bins."You are just so much (30)like her."You helped those people,I noticed,and you seemed so happy."She looked at me meaningfully and passed a box in through the window."I think she would like you to have it."(31)Shocked (shock),I took it from her automatically.She smiled and walked away.
After a pause,I opened the box.Inside was a beautiful gold necklace with a large grey pearl.It was (32)the nicest (nice) gift I'd ever received,and it was from a complete stranger.The necklace was around my neck,a warm reminder of human kindness.

3.Parents feel that it is difficult to live with teenagers.Then again,teenagers have (1)similar feelings about their parents,saying that it is not easy living with them.According to a recent research,the most common (2)argument between parents and teenagers is that regarding untidiness and daily routine tasks.On the one hand,parents go mad over(3)messy rooms,clothes thrown on the floor and their children's refusal to help with the(4)housework.On the other hand,teenagers lose their patience continually when parents blame them for(5)dropping the towel in the bathroom,not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping at the supermarket.
The research,conducted by St.George University,shows that different parents have different(6)approaches to these problems.However,some approaches are more (7)successful than others.For example,those parents who yell at their children for their untidiness,but(8)later clean the room for them,have fewer chances of changing their children's(9)behavior.On the contrary,those who let teenagers experience the(10)consequences of their actions can do better.For example,when teenagers who don't help their parents with the shopping don't find their favorite drink in the refrigerator,they are forced to(11)reconsider their actions.
Psychologists say that (12)communication is the most important thing in parent-child relationships.Parents should (13)talkto their children but at the same time they should lend an ear to what they have to say.Parents may(14)scold their children when they are untidy but they should also understand that their room is their own private space.Communication is a two-way process.It is only by listening to and(15)understanding each other that problems between parents and children can be settled.

Two years before, I traveled to Brazil and 1 rented for a car. Unfortunate, 1 had an accident and hit another car, and I needed to stay in a hospital for at least two week. I called my parents, so 1 did not tell them what had happened. I knew that they will be worried about myself because I was so farther away, and that my mother would not sleep if she knew. Therefore, I told them interested stories and how 1 was enjoying Brazil. As a result, nobody knew truth. I still think that it was the right thing to do.
