    19．What happens to a teenage kid when the world he thought he knew suddenly changes？Find out in Little Brother by American author Cory Doctorow．It is a fascinating book for a new generation of sci-fi readers．
    Marcus Yallow，17，from San Francisco is much more comfortable in front of a computer than obeying the rules of society．Smart，fast and wise to the ways of the networked world，he has no trouble outwitting（骗过） his high school's monitoring system．This way he and his friends get to head off to play a popular online game in real life．
    While they are playing，a bomb explodes on the Bay Bridge．Marcus stops a military vehicle to get help for his injured friend，but this simple act throws him into a Department of Homeland Security （DHS） secret prison．There he is treated as a possible terrorist．He is eventually let go after four days，but his injured disappears．
    When he returns，Marcus discovers that there are many"security measures"in place and that now all citizens are treated like potential terrorists．While some consider this government action necessary for public safety，Marcus sees this as a complete destruction  of the rights he is supposed to have as a citizen．
    He knows that no one will believe his story，which leaves him with only one thing to do：to take down the DHS himself．He helps organize a large network called Xnet to spread the truth，anonymously（匿名地）．
    The book presents a young man who is irresponsible，but learns about himself，and grows，in the course of the story．As part of this learning and growing he becomes aware of very serious issues about his society．

    60．Marcus Yallow was sent to prison becauseC．
    A．he killed his friend
    B．he bombed a military vehicle
    C．he did something that a possible terrorist could do
    D．his injured friend disappeared

    A．A fascinating story．  B．A book review．
    C．News report．          D．A TV programme．

    分析 本文属于记叙文阅读，作者通过这篇文章向我们介绍了有关美国作家家Cory Doctorow所写的一本书的书评，这本书中作者介绍了网络世界的专家Marcus Yallow，当他和朋友玩的时候一个炸弹在海湾大桥爆炸了，因此他被当成是恐怖分子而抓进了监狱，当他出来的时候他发现很多公民都被当作潜在的恐怖分子，因此他帮助组织了一个大型网络"XNET"来帮助传播真理．

    解答 CDCB
    60 C 细节理解题，根据第三段Marcus stops a military vehicle to get help for his injured friend，but this simple act throws him into a Department of Homeland Security （DHS） secret prison．There he is treated as a possible terrorist．可知Marcus被送进监狱是因为他和朋友做了一件恐怖分子可能做的事，故选C．
    61 D 推理判断题，根据第二段Smart，fast and wise to the ways of the networked world，he has no trouble outwitting （骗过） his high school's monitoring system．可知Marcus对网络世界很熟悉，曾经骗过他高中的监控系统，由此可知他是网络世界的专家，故选D．
    62 C 词义猜测题，根据第四段Marcus sees this as a complete destruction of the rights he is supposed to have as a citizen．可知Marcus认为这是一个完全被破坏的权利，"destruction"可以由文章中推测出其词意，也可以根据自己的单词储备直接选择，故选C
    63 B 文章出处题，通读全文可知作者在这篇文章中向我们介绍了美国作家Cory Doctorow的一本书，因此可知这篇文章属于书评，故选B．

    8．Sharing cars to work is not unusual．But what about sharing time to raise children together？In Ningbo city of Zhejiang province in East China，young mothers in the same neighborhood pool their children together，and share the responsibility of being parents．
        Spending every day together，but not families-in this coastal city of East China，three mothers are trying a new way of raising their kids，by pooling them together．
    Among the mothers are both office workers and housewives．They say they do so not just because of the tight schedule．
         Jiujiu's mother said，"By kids pooling，we mean to create an opportunity for the kids to spend time together so that we can observe our kids，learn more about them．And then we can discuss how to better bring them up．"
         The three families have been doing so for two years，in school days and holidays．Their children have grown used to each other's company，
         Chichi's mother said，"My son was a bit shy．We've been talking him to be more active，but he hardly changed．After joining the kids pool，suddenly we found him willing to communicate with others now．When we are not there，he has to rely on himself to get along with his pals．"
         Generally，mothers speak highly about the pooling．The mothers describe the pooling as bringing the running water into a closed pond．It opens a window to a different world for both kids and parents．But there are moments when opinions differ．Xiaoxiao's mother said，"Sex education for example．Kids will be curious about it when they reach a certain age．Personally I want to talk with my child about it，frankly and sincerely．But the other two moms think it better not to bring it up．"Xiaoxiao's mother says her solution is to share some parenting guidebooks with other mothers and let them make the decision．
         The headmaster of the kindergarten believes such pooling activities test not only children，but also the parents．Jin Hongqing，kindergarten headmaster said，"Parents need to be tolerant and patient．They shouldn't play the blame game when kids fight with each other．It's better to let the kids solve the issue by themselves．What they can do as parents is to communicate．"
    69．All the following aspects are the benefits of kids pooling EXCEPTC
    A．It saves time and helps relieve mothers'burden
    B．It allows parents to learn more about kids
    C．It offers better education than the kindergartens．
    D．It allows kids to learn to share and be independent．
    70．Why is sex education mentioned in the passage？D
    A．To suggest children are sometimes curious about it．
    B．To explain sex education is not suitable for children．
    C．To indicate mothers think highly of kids pooling．
    D．To show sometimes mothers have different opinions．
    71．What's the writer's attitude towards kids pooling？A
    A．Unclear．B．Favorable．C．Negative．D．Doubtful．
    72．Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage？D
    A．Chinese parenting．
    B．Sharing cars．
    C．Sharing children．
    D．Kids pooling．
