3.When I was growing up,16 was always a magical age,a symbol of maturity,responsibility and of course  more independence and freedom.I sat through the hours of Driver's Ed classes eager to get out on the road.I couldn't wait to get my driver's license.
But it's a different story for today's teens.In January,the U.S.Department Transportation released 2012 data that showed only 30.7 percent of U.S.teens got their license at age 16,Twenty years before,that number was almost 45 percent.
There are numbers of reasons for the fall-off.The growing responsibilites like paying for insurance and high gas prices discourage teens from getting behind the wheel.Plus,many teens today are so busy with homework,endless hours of activities and part-time jobs,that finding the time for Driver's Ed classes may be more difficult that ever.
In addition,many states have raised the driving age,or restricted when teens can drive and who they can have in the car.Parents may also be making their own personal restrictions until they feel their teens are responsible enough to drive safely.
Driving is part of the American culture,but it's not the central focus like it was 25 years ago.They have so many other things to do now.One of the more interesting fators delaying teens driving might be the change of their social life.Today,teens need to look no further than Facebook or other social networking sites to connect with their friends.There is simply less need,maybe less desire,to be able to grab the keys and go.
Michelle Wei got her license as a senior in high school because her digital social life made it easy not to drive."If I couldn't get a ride to see my friend who live a town over,"the 19-year-old said,"I could talk on IM or Skype."
Research has shown that these online relationships can lead to higher quality friendships,so it isn's necessarily a bad thing.However,it's important to find a balance.If old face-to-face friendships are good,why not drive top find them?
71.We can infer from the first paragraph thatC.
A.Driver's Ed classes allowed teens to know what maturity was
B.getting a driving license at 16 was a must for American teens
C.16 was considered an age when one could get his driver's license
D.teens could drive on the road without taking Driver's Ed classes
72.What does the passage mainly talk about?A
A.Derire to drive on the road declines among American teens.
B.Getting a license costs much more than ever before.
C.Social networking sites are changing the life of Amiercan teens.
D.American teens are becoming more responsible than ever.
73.Which is NOT a facot delaying American teens getting their driving licenses?D
A.The cost of insurance and gas.
B.Too many school courses and activities.
C.Restrictions from families and states.
D.pursuit of more freedom and independence.
74.Micheels Wei's example is used to explainC.
A.why American teens are crazy about digital social life
B.what social networking websites are bringing to American teens
C.to what degree the Internet is affecting the American car culture
D.what the Internet does to help teens to get a driving license
75.The last paragraph is reminding the readers thatB.
A.the Internet h as a bad effect on the teen's social life
B.teens should keep a balance in choosing their lifestyle
C.actual contacts can be replaced by talking on line
D.face-to-face friendship is always the best choice.

7.Family Values
    To understand a nation,you should first get to know its minimum unit-family.(36 )B
In the US,upon reaching an appropriate age,children are encouraged,but not forced,to"leave the nest"and begin an independent life.(37)DParents do not arrange marriages for their children,nor do children usually ask permission of their parents to get married.Young adults meet their future spouses(配偶)through other friends,at jobs,and in organizations and religious institutions.Although children choose their own spouses,they still hope their parents will approve of their choices.
Parents feel that children should make major life decisions by themselves in many families.A parent may try to influence a child to follow a particular profession but the child is free to choose another job.(38)FA son may deliberately decide not to go into his father's business because of a fear that he will lose his independence in his father's workplace.This independence from parents is not an indication that parents and children do not love each other.Strong love between parents and children is universal and this is no exception in the American family.
(39)AIt is not like we Chinese.Parents are rulers and masters.We Chinese love our parents with fear and total respect.In America,children always have their own opinions and even can talk about some sensitive problems with their parents,like family financial situation,the relationship between mother and father,and even sex.
(40)ETherefore,it is contrary that,on one hand,Americans admire independence and equality that they don't want to make sacrifice to make up a family,but on the other hand,Americans thing highly of family in their value system.

A.In the American family,children and parents are equal.
B.It can reflect the traditional values and customs of a nation.
C.When it comes to big problems,children do not have to always follow their parents'ways.
D.After children leave home,they often find social relationship and financial support outside the family.
E.Although Americans pay much attention to independence and equality,they don't believe in making sacrifice.
F.Sometimes children do precisely the opposite of what their parents wish in order to declare their independence.
G.Many of them are expected to leave what could be life's most important decision-marriage almost entirely up to luck.

8.You have probably read the books.You have probably seen the movies.But have you heard the music?The latest Harry Potter news is that bands form to play what is called"wizard rock"or sometimes just"wrock".
The new kind of music began when Joe De George and his brother Paul decided that the characters from Harry Potter would make a great band.Ron on guitar,Hermione on bass,Hagrid on drums and Harry singing up front would make for an excellent group.In one day,the brothers wrote,rehearsed and performed six songs about life at Hogwarts.After the first performance,Paul decided that"we are Harry and the potters."
Wizard rock is pretty much what it sounds like:rock"n"rock inspired by and set in the world of Harry Potter.The De George started a trend.Today there are dozens of wizard-rock bands:the Whomping Willows,the Remus Lupins and the Moaning Myrtles to name a few.Rockers dress like Hogwarts students and play at conventions and festivals.
People who like Harry Potter think wizard rock music is totally awesome.The songs can be funny,but the music is not a joke.Just ask the De George brothers.They've played more than 500shows in 49states and their hit songs are inspired by characters from Harry Potter:"Save Ginny Weasley"and"Voldemort Can't Stop the Rock!"The themes of their music are the same as those of Rowling's books:love and friendship,upset and struggle.
Wizard rock is just one more by-product in the Harry Potter craze.Two years after J.K.Rowling published her last book in the series,Potter popularity continues to grow.There are Potter conventions and Potter clubs that try to get kids and grow-ups to help fight hunger,for example.And the fact that they may do it while humming"Wizard Chess"or"Platform 9"makes those meetings fun.

51.What is the text mainly about?C
A.Harry Potter.       B.Harry Potter's music. 
C.Wizard rock.         D.Joe and Paul's band.
52.The underlined word"awesome"in Pa4 probably meansB in the text.
A.amusing           B.serious           C.considerate       D.inviting
53.Which of the following is true about wizard rock?D
A.It's no different from rock"n"rock.
B.It's sung in the films Harry Potter.
C.It's a funny business.
D.It follows the themes in Rowling's books.
54.According to the last paragraph,we can learn thatA.
A.Harry Potter has had great effects in many aspects
B.Harry Potter is very popular in the world
C.Wizard rock is Harry Potter's only by-product
D.Potter's clubs have helped the hungry.
