I was appreciating my family photos on my computer, admiring my two beautiful babies when I found a disturbing scene: my laptop was in almost all the pictures.There was my daughter, 8 months old, playing at my feet while I was typing on the couch.There was my son, with a big transformer, on my left arms.
I’d heard about the Internet addiction before, but I always thought it was something only limited to playing too much World of Warcraft (a computer game) day and night.Now, it seemed my Internet-habit is slowly but surely crossing the line.Sometimes I find myself up at midnight, surfing the Web while my family are sleeping.I read news, keep up with friends and write my blog … just for something to do.
It turns out that I’m not the only mama who is addicted to the computer.These moms are contributing to a growing global addiction.There’s a movement among psychiatrists (doctors who specialize in mental diseases) to recognize the Internet addiction as an official mental disorder.And a recent Stanford University national survey found that 14 percent of Internet users find it hard to stay away from it for several days at a time; 9 percent try to hide their —unnecessary Internet use from their loved ones; 8 percent admit they use the Web as a way to escape problems.
You’re likely not the kind of addict who doesn’t bathe and abuses drugs to help her stay up for more online time.You may have noticed, though, that going online has become a necessary part of your life, which, at least, means a box of clothes go unwashed.It may also mean you’re missing much time with you baby – something you probably do care about.
1.From Paragraph 1, we can conclude that _______.
A.the author was busy taking care of her babies
B.the author’s job had something to do with computers
C.the author was not good at taking photos of her babies
D.the author looked after her babies while using the computer.
2.The author used to think that the Internet addiction is ________.
A.using the web at midnight
B.keeping up with friends online
C.spending too much time online
D.being addicted to computer games
3.In medical terms, the Internet addiction is ________.
A.a personal life habit
B.a way to escape problems
C.an official mental disorder
D.the unnecessary use of the Internet
4.What does the author want to express in the last but one paragraph?
A.Many women still can control their online time.
B.The Internet addiction influences housewives’ lives a lot.
C.Going online has become a necessary part of women’s lives.
D.Many people don’t realize that they are addicted to the Internet.

Tu Youyou has become the first Chinese woman to win a Nobel Prize, for her work in helping to create an anti-malaria(疟疾) medicine. The 84-year-old’s route to the honour has been anything but traditional. In China, she is being called the "three nos" winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and she’s never worked overseas.
In 1967, malaria, a then deadly disease, spread by mosquitoes was decimating Chinese soldiers fighting Americans in the jungles of northern Vietnam. A secret research unit “Mission 523 “was formed to find a cure for the illness. Two years later, Tu Youyou was instructed to become the new head of “Mission 523”.
“Mission523” read ancient books carefully for a long time to find historical methods of fighting malaria. When she started her search for an anti-malarial drug, more than 240,000 compounds(化合物) around the world had already been tested, without any success. Finally, the team found a brief reference to one substance, sweet wormwood(青蒿), which had been used to treat malaria in China around 400 AD. The team took out one active compound in wormwood, and then tested it. But nothing was effective until Tu Youyou returned to the original ancient text. After another careful reading, she changed the drug recipe one final time, heating the compound without allowing it to reach boiling point.
After the drug showed promising results in mice and monkeys, Tu Youyou volunteered to be the first human recipient of the new drug. “
In any case, Tu Youyou is consistently praised for her drive and passion. One former colleague. Lianda Li, says Ms Tu is “unsociable and quite straightforward”, adding that “if she disagrees with something, she will say it.”
Another colleague, Fuming Liao, who has worked with Tu Youyou for more than 40 years, describes her as a “tough and stubborn woman”. Stubborn enough to spend decades piecing together ancient texts, she applies them to modern scientific practices. The result has saved millions of lives.
1.According to Para. I, we can learn that_______.
A. Tu is the first woman to win a Nobel Prize
B. Tu has a medical degree
C. Tu’s road to success is not traditional
D. Tu discovered a cure for malaria
2. The underlined word “decimating” can be replaced by_______.
A. encouraging B. killing
C. annoying D. benefiting
3. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Tu first invented the idea of using sweet wormwood as a cure.
B. Tu was inspired by medical textbooks published in northern vietnem.
C. The compound needs to be heated to the boiling point to be effective.
D. Over 240,000 compounds were proved ineffective before Tu’s seareh.
4.Tu Youyou can be best described as a _______ person.
A. devoted and stubborn
B. straightforward and mean
C. considerate and tough
D. sociable and generous
