My parents were really angry when I didnt do my chores. Todays teenagers are lazier. They come home from school and then play computer games for the rest of the day.Sarah 45Young people nowadays arent better or worse than young people in the past. Teenagers today have the same problems that we did. Theyre worried about finding their own identity(身份) and their own place in the world. I once read this quotation: “Children nowadays just love the easy life. Theyre bad mannered, have no respect for authority or for older people, and they make their teachers mad.” Do you know who said that? It was Socrates（苏格拉底）. He lived about 2,400 years ago.Patty 52In the media, they always say that teenagers have easy life. They say theyre lazy and irresponsible. But I work with young people and lots of them are responsible and hard-working. I also meet teenagers who are opposite. Isnt it the same with adults? Perhaps teenagers have more money now. And they have lots of modern gadgets like MP3 players. But those things dont always make life easier or make you happier!Ned 23Who says teenagers have an easy life? Exams are harder now than in the past. Its more difficult to get a job so your marks need to be higher. The media make us worry about our appearance nowadays too; so a lot of teenagers arent happy. They think they should be taller or thinner, like the people they see on TV. Maybe the problems are different from the past. But that doesnt make life easier. Its probably the opposite!（1）Who thinks teenagers nowadays have a harder life than teenagers in the past?A . KatieB . SarahC . PattyD . Ned（2）What does the underline word “opposite” mean in Paragraph 3?A . irresponsible and lazyB . responsible and hard-workingC . lazy and responsibleD . hard-working and irresponsible（3）Whats the meaning of “quotation” in Paragraph 2 ?A . 报价单B . 谚语C . 引用语D . 成语（4）Which of the following is true according to the passage?A . Katie thinks she was less responsible than todays teenagers.B . Sarah thinks teenagers today have the same problems that they did.C . Patty thinks young people today are lazy and irresponsible.D . Ned thinks teenagers have an easy life.（5）The best title is _. A . What is life like for teenagers today?B . How was life for teenagers in the past?C . What do teenagers today do?D .

They were young adults. I didnt want to take their property(财产), nor could I shout at them. You can guess what happened. Some students were polite, using their phones between activities. Others would rudely text(发短信)their friends during lessons, sometimes even while I talked to them individually. One young woman, K, openly played a game at her desk with earphones!l began to think my class was boring(probably true)and that my students hated me (I could understand). But what could I do? I couldnt fail every student. Maybe I was just being a crazy old person.With all the recent talks about banning(禁止)smartphones at schools, you might think Im in favor. Im actually not so sure. This technology isnt going away. Teachers probably need to adjust(调整)as much as students.I designed(设计)activities to force more participation, using pens and paper and moving around the room to talk to classmates. It kind of worked! I also found ways to use their phones. Things like research, translation and creative projects. I found that my students worked hardest on these activities.Phones might not be the biggest problem. Once, walking on campus, I saw K standing alone in the dark. I could see her face lit up by her mobile game. Maybe smartphone addiction(上瘾)at school is a sign of loneliness or a boring teacher.（1）Which of the following shows the structure(结构)of the passage? （-Paragraph 1，=Paragraph 2，）A . B . C .
