14.Bicycles,roller skates and skateboards are dangerous.I still have scars (伤疤) on my knees from my childhood run-ins with various wheeled devices.Admittedly,I was a foolish kid,but I'm glad I didn't spend my childhood trapped indoors to protect me from any injury.
"That which does not kill us makes us stronger."But parents can't handle it when teenagers put this theory into practice.And now technology has become the new field for the age-old battle between adults and their freedom-seeking kids.
Locked indoors,unable to get on their bicycles and hang out with their friends,teens have turned to social media and their mobile phones to gossip and socialize with their friends.What they do online often mirrors what they might otherwise do if their mobility weren't so heavily restricted (限制) in the age of helicopter parenting.Social media and smartphones have become so popular in recent years because teens need a place to call their own.They want the freedom to explore their identity and the world around them.Instead of climbing out of windows,they jump online.
As teens have moved online,parents have projected their fears onto the Internet,imagining all the potential dangers that youth might face.
Rather than helping teens develop strategies (策略) to deal with public life and the potential risks of interacting with others,fearful parents have focused on tracking,monitoring and blocking.These approaches don't help teens develop the skills they need to manage complex social situations."Protecting"kids may feel like the right thing to do,but it denies teens the chances of learning as they come of age in a technology-soaked world.
The key to helping youth in the modern digital life isn't more restrictions.It's freedom-plus communication.Urban theorist Jane Jacobs used to argue that the safest neighborhoods were those where communities collectively took interest in and paid attention to what happened on the streets.Safety didn't come from surveillance (监视) cameras or keeping everyone indoors but from a collective willingness to watch out for one another and be present as people struggled.The same is true online.
What makes the digital street safe is when teens and adults collectively agree to open their eyes and pay attention,communicate and work together to deal with difficult situations.Teens need the freedom to wander the digital street,but they also need to know that caring adults are behind them and supporting them wherever they go.The first step is to turn off the tracking software.Then ask your kids what they're doing when they're online-and why it's so important to them.

66.When he was a child,the writerB.
A.became disabled
B.spent much time outdoor
C.always stayed at home 
D.was ignored by his parents

A.online games mirror real life 
B.they want to fight against their parents
C.online experiences make them strong
D.they need a space of their own
68.By mentioning"helicopter parenting"(Paragraph 3),the writer means parentsD.
A.remove any hidden dangers their kids may face
B.use helicopters to track their kids

C.the digital street is a threat to kids'safety

1.Villagers of the high desert of Ladakh in India's Jammu and Kashmir state used to harvest plentiful crops of wheat,fruits,and vegetables in summer.But for years the streams have run dry in spring,just when farmers needed water to sow seeds.They had water when it wasn't needed during the rest of the year,such as in winter,when people let water run from taps to prevent pipes from freezing and bursting.Villagers blame climate change for causing glaciers (冰川) to shrink by melting them faster than before.
To solve the water-shortage problem,Sonam Wangchuk,a mechanical engineer,and his team of volunteers are building a huge vertical block of ice in Phyang,nine miles from Leh,the capital of Ladakh.When spring comes and the artificial glacier melts,farmers will have flowing water.This method stores water without the need for concrete water storage tanks or dam.While it won't stop glaciers from shrinking,it could help people adapt to a warming world.
Last winter,Wangchuk built a six-meter-high  prototype  on am open riverbank totest his novel idea.It stored 150,000liters of water at 3,170meters,the lowest altitude in Leh valley.This,he said,proved ice pyramids (金字塔)can be built anywhere in the region.When the prototype lasted until mid-May,he was encouraged to attempt a 30-metre-high pyramid of ice this winter.But the cost of piping water from the Phyang stream,1.5miles away,was a huge S 100,000.Not discouraged,he somehow raised the money and work began on 21January.
The site was waterproofed with clay (粘土),so when the ice pyramid melted,water would not get into the desert sand.Sprinklers (喷淋装置)sprayed water from above,and the cold wind froze the tiny drops of water as they hit the ground.A cone of ice built up slowly but steadily.With only two more weeks of winter left,time is running short.The pyramid will likely be no more than 15meters high when completed,half the size of the planned 30meters.
"This year was the first time,so there were complications and delays,Wangchuk said."We wanted to achieve two things--to show how to make an ice pyramid and how to green a patch of desert."It's difficult to say how many people will eventually benefit;Fhyang village has only 2,000people.But there'll he enough water for many more.This is an economic as well as ecological activity."
In the coming years,Wangehuk hopes to build 80to 90ice pyramids,each more than 30meters tall,in Phyang village.They'll store 1bn liters of water,enough to irrigate 600hectares ( 1,500acres) of desert,he says.To make so many ice pyramids,the only additional investment is the pipeline.Wangehuk said:"We need more pipes so we can extend it farther and farther.It will take another $ 100,000to make the other ice pyramids."Once the pipes are laid,frozen ice pyramids can be built year after year without pumping in more money.The underground pipes will last a hundred years.But for now,the desert around the 3,500-metre-high Phyang will turn green in summer,as water flows for the first time in many years.

41.The writer mentions the harvest of crops in Ladakh at the beginning of the passage in order toC.
A.remind people of the importance of water protection 
B.show what people's life used to be like in India
C.provide background information for Wangchuk's effort
D.discuss the relationship between crops and water supply
42.The underlined word"prototype"( Paragraph 3)probably meansA.
A.the first design or model from which other forms are copied or developed
B.the glacier that provides the farmland and nearby rivers with water
C.a tall concrete building that consists of at least three floors
D.a small hill in cold areas where trees and grass can be planted
43.One problem with Wangchuk's method is thatB.
A.the ice pyramid can't store enough water     
B.it is quite expensive to lay the pipes
C.the ice pyramid can't be built high enough    
D.the weather can be too warm for the water to freeze
44.According to the above passage,one advantage of Wangchuk's method is thatD.
A.it can stop glaciers from shrinking        
B.ice pyramids can be built anywhere in Leh valley
C.you can build as manyice pyramids as you like

18.Editor Henry Slocum,
     I read your May 10th article in the local newspaper Honesdale Times about electronic books,or e-books,with great interest.You made several good points about the disadvantages of e-books.You may have overlooked,however,some of the ways in which they are superior to traditional books.Yes,e-books are expensive,but they are also convenient.In addition,due to their environment-friendly nature,e-books have the potential to change our planet for the better.
     E-books,for anyone who is unfamiliar with the term,are about the same size and shape as regular books.They have a large screen in the middle,however.This screen shows the reader a page of text that has been downloaded from a computer.Once the reader has finished reading the page on the e-book screen,he or she scrolls down to see a new page.The process continues until the entire book has been read.
     As you pointed out,Mr.Slocum,it's great to lie on a warm,sandy beach with a book.You can do that just as easily with an e-book as you can with a traditional paper book.In fact,because e-books are so light,you can carry them anywhere.Say,for example,that you like to read on the bus.Which would you rather carry with you-a heavy 800-page novel,or an e-book that weighs only a few ounces?
    Another important advantage is offered by e-books as well.They are more environment friendly than traditional books.At present,thousands of trees are cut down each year to meet the publishing industry's demand for paper.Books that don't sell are eventually returned to the publisher and destroyed.This terrible waste could be avoided if everyone used e-books,which require no paper.
Sincerely,
David Eng41.What does Editor Henry Slocum think about e-books?B
A.Interesting
B.Expensive
C.Convenient  
D.Environment-friendly.
42.What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 2?A
A.What an e-book is.
B.Why e-books are popular.
C.How e-books have developed.
D.Who are the readers of e-books.
43.In David's letter,he thinks thatC.
A.E-books will come down in price
B.E-books come in various sizes and shapes     
C.E-books do little harm to the environment
D.E-books are no better than traditional books
44.Which of the following statements is true?B
A.Large quantities of trees are cut down to help to make e-books.
B.Editor Henry Slocum ignored some advantages of e-books.
C.E-books are harmful to eyes according to the article.
D.It's a waste of materials to use e-books.
45.The main purpose of the letter is toD.
A.explain how to read e-books
B.honor the person who invented e-books
C.scold publishers for wasting so much paper
D.provide evidence that e-books are a good idea.
