B
Deep into the night, the bus pulled into a Howard Johnson’s restaurant and everybody got off the bus except Vingo. The young people began to wonder about him, trying to imagine his life:perhaps he was sea captain; maybe he had run away from wife; he could be an old soldier going home. When they went to the bus, one of the girls sat beside him and introduced herself. After a long time, slowly and painfully, he began to tell his story. He had been in prison in New York for the last four years, and he was going home.
“Well, when I was in prison I wrote to my wife. I said, Martha, I understand if you can’t stay married to me. I said I was going to be away a long time, and that if she couldn’t stand it, if the kids kept asking questions, if it hurt her too much, well, she could just forget all about me. I told her she didn’t have to write to me, and she didn’t. Not for the three and a half years.”
“Last week, when I was sure freedom was coming through, I wrote to her. I told her if she had a new young man, I would understand. But if she didn’t, if she would take me back, she should let me know. We used to live in this town, Brunswick, and there’s a great big oak tree just as you come into the town. I told her if she could take me back, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree, and if she didn’t want me, forget me, no handkerchief and I’d keep going on through.”
Soon all the others were in it. When they were 20 miles from Brunswick, the young people took over window seats on the right side, waiting for the approach of the great oak tree. Vingo stopped looking, tightening his face into the ex?con’s mask. Then it was 10 miles, and five, and the bus became very quiet.
Then suddenly all of the young people were up out of their seats, screaming and shouting and crying, doing small dances. All except Vingo.
39.In the story, the yellow handkerchief probably means_______.

40.The bus became quiet when it came near the town because all the passengers_______.

A.he found no handkerchief on the oak tree

C.he felt he could not match his wife any longer, afraid to face her
D.he had complicated feelings at the moment:guilty, grateful as well as excited

科目：高中英语 来源：山东省潍坊市2010年高考模拟训练 A 英语 题型：阅读理解
A 17-year-old boy，caught sending text messages in class，was recently sent to the vice principal`s office. The vice principal，Steve Gallagher，told the boy he needed to focus on the teach-er，not his cellphone. The boy listened politely and nodded，and that`s when Mr.Gallagher noticed the student`s fingers moving on his lap. He was testing while being scolded for texting. " It was a subconscious act，" says Mr. Gallagher，who took the phone away. " Young people today are con-nected socially from the moment they open their eyes in the morning until they colse their eyes at night.It`s compulsive."
A study this year by psychology students at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain,Ga.,found that the more time young people spend on Facebook，the more likely they are to have lower grades and weaker study habits. Heavy Facebook users show signs of being more sociable，but they are also more likely to be anxious，hostile or depressed.
Almost a quarter of today`s teens check Facebook more than 10 times a day，according to a 2009 survey by Common Sense Media,a nonprofit group that monitors media`s impact on families.Will these young people get rid of this habit once they enter the work force，or will employers come to see texting and `social-network cheeking` as accepted parts of the workday?Think back,When today`s older workers were in their 20s,they might have taken a break on the job to call friends and make after-work plans.In those earlier eras,companies discouraged non-business-related calls,and someone who made personal calls all day risked being fired.It was impossible to imagine the constant back-and-forth texting that defines interactions among young people today.Educators are also being asked by parents，students and educational strategists to reconsider their rules. "In past generations，students got in trouble for passing notes in class. Now students are good at texting with their phones still in their pockets，" says 40-year-old Mr.Gallagher,the vice principal,"and they`re able to communicate with someone one floor down and three rows over. Students are just fundamentally different today.They will take suspensions rather than give up their phones."
66.The underlined word "a subconscious act"in the first paragraph refers to an act_________
A.on purpose B.without realization
C.in secret D.with care
67.Young people addicted to the use of Facebook _________.
A.are good at dealing with the social relationships and concentrate on their study
B.have high spirits and positive attitudes towards their life and work
C.have been influenced mentally in the aspects of behaviors and habits
D.are always in bad mood and have poor performance in every respect
68.Through the situation of today`s older workers in their 20s,it can be inferred that_________
A.the employers will not accept young people`s sending text messages
B.a cellphone is a must for today`s older workers instead of young people
C.The employers prefer older workers to young people
D.the employers will find it hard to control the interaction among young people
69. Mr. Gallagher reminds us that the students in the past and those today_______.
A.like to break rules and have the same means of sending messages
B.are always the big problem for the educations and their parents
C.like sending text messages but those today do it in a more secret and skillful way
D.cannot live without a cellphone
70. What’s the best title of the passage?
A.Teenagers and Cellphones
B.Teenagers’ Texting Addiction
C.Employers and Teenagers
D.Teenagers’ Education
