解答 51．C 细节理解题．第二段第二句话中的"．are less happy and less sociallycomfortable than other teenagers…"说明女孩们因为使用过多多媒体媒介和别人交流对她们的现实生活与人际交流来说有些不利．在现实中会让她们感到不高兴或者不自在，所以答案选C项．
52．A 推理判断题．第三段第一句话的"in fact coming to a virtual"说明过多多媒体媒介的使用将女孩子们引入到了虚拟世界中，而在现实生活中的人际交流则大打折扣．
53．B 细节理解题．第四段的关键词"need to experience the full face-to-face communication"说明女孩子们之所以更需要多经和别人面对面的交流，是因为她们太过沉迷于其他多媒体形式的媒介交流．
54．D 推理判断题．第五段末句的"not ready to blame her daughter's heavy use of technology"和第六段的"helped her daughter navigate（行）the world socially．"说明在格雷女士看来多媒体媒介的使用对女儿来说还是好处更多，所以她并不打算禁止女儿用．
 55．细节理解题．根据最后一段"Ms．Gray said she worries…playing out her social life online sometimes without the benefits of the full emotional range that comes from face-to-face interaction"可知，Ms．Gray 担心女儿过于依赖网上社交而忽略了真正的面对面的情感交流．
