financially (经济)independent. they also believe that becoming a real grown-up is a process(过程) which begins at about the age of 20 and takes about five years, according to the report from the university of chicagos national opinion research center. the findings are based on a representative sample(代表性样本) of 1,398 people over the age of 18 who were surveyed in person. the survey found that people expect the transitions(过渡) to grown-up status(地位，状态) to be completed at the following ages: age 20.9 self-supporting; age 21.1 no longer living with parents; age 21.2 having a full-time job; age 22.3 education completed; age 24.5 being able to support a family financially; age 25.7 getting married; and age 26.2 having a child. “there is a large degree of agreement across social groups on the relative importance of the seven transitions,” said tom smith, director of the survey. the only obvious pattern of differences is on views about supporting a family, having children and getting married. older adults consider these more important than younger adults do. this probably shows in large part a change in values across generations away from traditional family values. the most valued step toward reaching adulthood, the survey found, is completing education, followed by full-time employment, supporting a family, financial independence, living independently, and marriage.61. according to the first paragraph, someone is a grown-up when he _. a. has found a full-time job b. has finished his study in universityc. can make money and support himself after completing his educationd. can support a family and be financially independent after graduation62. a young man of 24 may be busy _. a. finding a job b. finding a girl friendc. making money d. preparing for his wedding63. the underlined word “status” in the second paragraph probably means “_”. a. position b. rank c. level d. situation64. from the passage, we learn that _. a. being grown-up is just a matter of ageb. being grown-up is a process which takes some timec. all people think completing education means being grown-upd. the survey found everyone had a different view about being grown-up65. the best title for the passage should be “_” a. it takes a long time to grown up. b. are we grown-up yet?c. getting married means being grown-up. d. completing education means being grown-up. ca great

（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）a new survey is believed to be the largest, most ambitious and most detailed study ever conducted to measure how us adults use media by means of the major screens. the top finding of the study is that today, even with people becoming increasingly mature about modern technology, the tv screen still dominates (控制) their lives and continues to take up the greatest amount of viewing time. the data suggests that computer usage has replaced radio as the second most popular media activity.for the study, observers followed 350 participants and recorded their exposure to different screens: traditional tv screens, computers, mobile phones and other screens. they were followed from the time they woke up in the morning till they went to bed at night. young people under 18 were not included in the study.the study discovered that the average amount of screen time for subjects in all age groups was amazingly similar, at more than 8.5 hours of media exposure a day. surprisingly, people between the ages of 45 and 54, spent on average an extra hour in front of the screens every day. among other interesting findings, it showed that young people were not the only ones who distributed (分配) their attention between screens. people in their mid 20s and 30s were found to spend the most time watching dvd or vcr videos, and those in their 40s and early 50s spent the most time surfing the web and sending e-mails. people who were over 55 years of age mainly preferred live television.the data showed that the younger audiences, those between 18 and 24 years of age, mostly college students and people who have just started working, watched the smallest amount of live tv of any age group, spent the most time sending text messages, and watched the most online video.title: american adults exposure to 71. _a surveythe largest, most 72. _ studycontents of the survey the 73. _: 350 time they were followed: from waking up in the morning till 74. _ at night
