The smiling face of Santa Claus appears all across China．Local governments are decorating trees and lamp posts with lights and ornaments．At first glance，visitors would think they were in Europe．
Despite the fact that most Chinese are not Christians，Christmas season has become increasingly popular．
"If you walked around major Chinese cities 15 years ago，you wouldn`t have seen many signs of Christmas．However，if you were to visit those same Chinese cities again today，you’d be surprised to see signs of Christmas almost everywhere，" says Cai Jiming，a professor with Tsinghua University，who has served as an expert in developing China`s holiday schedule．
Although Christmas is not a public holiday，many Chinese cities are still getting into the Christmas spirit．
Cai says his e-mail inbox and cell phone have been flooded with messages wishing him a merry Christmas．The greetings have been coming in since the end of November．
In his view，Christmas seems like a "warm-up" for the truly important coming month-long Spring Festival．
However，despite the prevalence (流行)of Christmas celebrations，for most Chinese，it neither means a religious celebration nor an occasion for family reunions．Instead，it is a time for relaxing with friends，a time to shop，a time to have a party and it is especially a time for romance．
"I expect my boyfriend to take me out on Christmas Eve and I expect a romantic night，" says Christine Zhou，28，a hotel manager in Beijing．"It seems to me that everything associated with Christmas time is romantic．"
On the streets，rose and chocolate peddlers are vying （竞争）for their business．
Christmas has become another Valentine`s Day，and at the same time，more people feel it is a time to reward themselves with good food and a good time．
However，as more Chinese join in the Christmas celebrations each year，some feel the Western-based festival is harming time-honored traditions．
But Cai considers it is unnecessary to boycott （抵制）a Western cultural festival．"All important festivals in different cultures have now developed into universal holidays，" he says．”

After having more than a few acquaintances （熟人）online, _it might come a blow to keen social networkers like Barack Obama, or even Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg himself.
According to a research, the average person has in fact twice as many online friends as physical ones. Users of social-networking sites have on average 121 online friends as compared with physical ones. The study also claims that people tend to be more open, confident and honest with their virtual friends than their “real” ones.
“For most people , the Internet is a way of keeping in touch with loved ones and friends, but for people who are isolated due to illness, it plays a more vital role, and can often act as a lifeline.” says Helen Oxley, a psychologist at Wythenshawe hospital.
“People with illnesses often rely on the Internet to facilitate（促进） friendships, since they blog and use networking sites as a way of dealing with their illness. It can foster a sense of social connection for those who frequently feel isolated, which is important to psychological well-being.”
In wider society, the ways in which friendships are formed are changing, with people recognizing that they can develop deep and meaningful connections with others that they’ve never met, and may never meet. About one in 10 people has either met their best friends online, or believes they can make lifelong friends on the Web.
The findings highlight how social introductions are also changing. Only five percent would ask for someone’s phone number, while 23 percent are now likely to ask for an email address or a full name with the intention of adding the person to their social network.
At the same time, however, a questionnaire completed by 4,427 suggests that 20 percent of parents believe their children’s education is affected by surfing the Net. They think their children are doing poorly at the school due to the amount of time they spend on non-educational websites.
1.The underlined word “it” in Para 1 most probably refers to ________.
A. people spending too much time surfing the Net
B. people relying on the Internet to connect with friends
C. people having more virtual friends than real ones
D. people making meaningful connections with strangers
2.We can infer from the text that________.
A. sick people can recover more quickly by surfing the Net
B. students get important information online
C. students who surf the net always perform not so well
D. people tend to trust their virtual friends more than their real ones
3.What percentage of parents believe that the Internet has a bad effect on their children?
A. About 5 percent. B. About 20 percent.
C. About 10 percent. D. About 23 percent.
4.In the following paragraph, the author will probably discuss ________.
A. how much time children spend on the Internet
B. how children learn about the world through the Net
C. how parents feel about their children’s studies
D. how children make use of the Internet to study
