It's lunchtime, you're hungry and can't wait to get your favourite meal at the restaurant. But there is a queue of people nearly reaching the door. Don't worry - in cyberworld (网络世界), lunch is just a few clicks away.
"Shopping has never been easier. With just a single click on your mouse (鼠标), whatever you order online can be
delivered to your door in no time at all," said Bian Jing, 20, who recently took part in an online survival contest held in Beijing. Each competitor had to go online and buy enough food and drink to last them for 100 hours, using limited money.
"I don't want to spend too much time shopping so I do it online rather than in a normal store," said Chang Haijiao, a Senior 3 student at the Second High School Attached to Capital Normal University. "It's easy to find the thing you want on websites as they have catalogues (目录)."
Customers who go online can also find lower prices and a wider choice of goods.
But many teachers and parents are worried that online shopping is becoming too popular.
"It's not a good way for high school students to spend their money," said a teacher at Chang's school. "I don't like them to shop online."
As students are still dependent upon their parents for money, it is said that they are not ready to take responsibility for paying for goods online. There is also the risk they will lose their money at online stores that just want to cheat customers.
Most parents, though, don't want to pay the bill when their children overspend on the Internet. "I hate having to pay
unexpected bills," said one father. "But my son always surprises me with them."
65. Many people like shopping online, because it saves ________ .
A. money B. time C. energy D. work
66. ________ don't like the way of shopping online according this passage.
A. Teachers and parents
B. Students and teachers
C. Students and parents
D. Boys and parents
67. The writer thinks there are ________ reasons why students shouldn't shop online.
A. two B. three C. four D. five
68. Which of the following are NOT mentioned as a strong point of shopping online?
A. Websites have catalogues.
B. Some goods have lower prices.
C. There are a variety of choices of goods.
D. The goods shopped online are better than those in the markets.

It’s 10:30 p.m., and 11-year-old Brandon Blanco is sound asleep at home. Suddenly, a loud noise wakes him up. Naturally, Brandon reaches for his cell phone. He blinks twice, and the message on the screen becomes clear: “R U awake?”
But the late-night text does not annoy Brandon. He gets frequent messages and calls, even after bedtime. And he can’t imagine life without them. “If I didn’t have a cell phone, I wouldn’t be able to talk to my friends or family as often,” he told the Kaiser Family Foundation.
Brandon’s use of technology doesn’t stop there. He also has a computer, a TV and three video-game consoles（控制台）in his room. With so many devices, it is no surprise that when he is not at school, he spends nearly every waking minute using one or more of these devices. Brandon is hardly alone. According to a recent study by TFK, kids aged 8 to 18 are spending more time than ever before using electronic devices. How much time? More than seven and a half hours a day on average, the study found. That’s about an hour more than just five years ago.
The jump is the result of a huge explosion in mobile devices, says Victoria Rideout, the lead author of the study. “These devices have opened up many more opportunities for young people to use media, whether it’s on the bus, on the way to school or waiting in line at the pizza parlor,” says Rideout.
Often, kids multitask, or use more than one device at a time. “If you’ve got a chance to do something on your computer and take a phone call and have the TV on in the background, why not?” Media expert Cheryl Olson says. Most experts agree technology has much to offer kids. But some worry the kids could be missing out on other activities like playing outside or hanging out with friends. “It’s a matter of balance,” says Olson.
Multitasking while doing homework is another concern. Some kids listen to music, watch TV or use the phone while doing their homework. “It’s important to make sure that you can stop and concentrate on one thing deeply,” says Rideout.
With new and exciting devices hitting stores every year, keeping technology use in check is more important than ever. “Kids should try,” adds Rideout. “But parents might have to step in sometimes.”
1.It can be learned from the text that _________.
A. many teenagers lack friends in their middle school
B. kids have too many electronic devices to choose from
C. Brandon feels annoyed about his late-night message
D. Olson is against teenagers’ using mobile phones
2.Which of the following is an example of multitasking?
A. Watching TV when using the computer.
B. Talking on the phone when lying on the sofa.
C. Playing video games after having lunch.
D. Listening to loud music while relaxing.
3.The underlined phrase “in check” in the last paragraph can be replaced by _________.
A. in order B. in store C. in control D. in sight
4.According to the text, Victoria Rideout would probably agree that kids should ______.
A. do homework while watching TV
B. have less homework
C. spend more time on homework
D. do homework in a place without disturbance

The kids at Shute Country Primary School in Devon are surprisingly quiet when it’s time to go home in the afternoon, instead of the usual shouting and running you can hear them asking each other, “ Are the lights all off?”, “Shall we check the taps in case they are dripping （滴水）?”, “How many paper towels did we use today?”
But it’s not unusual here．The kids have declared a war on waste．
“We’ve never made the children do anything,” explains Liz Templar, the school’s head teacher, “they came up with all ideas themselves．They’re doing this because they want to．”
If you take a look around the school you won’t see anything thrown away unnecessarily．Everything is collected and reused, or sent to be recycled．
Shute School started its green_revolution_two years ago．They looked carefully at every party of school life－from the teaching to the cleaning．They looked at the way stationery（文具） was used－especially photocopying, the way cleaning was carried out, and how food was used and wasted!
Even parents were looked at: how many children came in each car? Did they use unleaded petrol? Could they bring more children in fewer cars?
High on the list was the waste of paper．Next came unfriendly cleaning products．Paper towels were replaced with recycled paper．But the hardest thing for the kids was when they found out how much rubbish was created by the chocolate, crisps and other snacks（小吃） eaten at lunch time．Of their own accord（自愿地）, the children gave them up．Now they bring apples and home-made snacks．
The school has its own garden where they grow vegetables and flowers so that they can learn about the environment．They also use this area for their recycling store-large containers to collect aluminum, bottles, plate and fabric（织物）．
Even the school’s play area is made from recycled things．
Since the children started, the school’s heating and lighting bills have fallen obviously and the number of rubbish bags has gone down from seven a week to two or three．
Everywhere in Shute School there are bright posters asking everyone to take their rubbish home, to save energy and paper and to keep the green flag flying．
1．Which of the following best describes the writer’s idea?
A．The pupils at Shute School are fighting against pollution．
B．The pupils at Shute School are learning to save things．
C．The pupils at Shute School have declared a war on waste．
D．The pupils at Shute School have found a way to recycle waste things．
2．We can infer from the text that “green revolution” means _______．
A．beautifying schoolyard B．activity against waste
C．planting green plants D．throwing away waste
3．What do the children think creates the most waste?
A．Paper towels． B．Cleaning products．
C．Snacks． D．Paper．
4．We learn from the text that the children’s behavior ____________．
A．has brought arguments
B．has saved the school’s cost
