the pressure of 用心 爱心 专心6 school and work However they can also cause problems and unhealthy addictions This is most clearly seen in the example of South Korea This country has the world s highest percentage of high speed Internet services It also has a high number of game players who are addicted to online games In 2004 a young man died after playing online games almost nonstop for 86 hours A 12 year old boy stole 16 000 from his father to continue online games which he could not get away from Such problems are spreading to other parts of Asia as well In 2005 it was reported that about 80 percent of China s 13 8 million online game players were under 25 And many of these were said to be addicted Such numbers point toward a growing problem among Chinese youth Dr Sue Huei Chen a psychologist 心理学家 discovered some signs of at risk people Such people often go online to escape from their problems And they usually have no friendship or good social skills They feel the need to spend more and more time online so they may be absent from school or family And they become upset if anyone tries to shorten their online game playing 56 The passage is mainly about A reasons for online game addiction B problems caused by online games C computer problems in Asia D problems caused by young people 57 In the passage the writer tells us a fact that A South Korea has a large number of Internet schools B more and more young men are stealing money for online games C China s online game players are all under the age of 25 D online game addiction is a very common problem in South Korea 58 According to the passage are more likely to become addicted to online games A people under great pressure from school and work B people well known in the field of computer games C people with unsolved problems and few friends D people who d like to take a risk in computer games B B You have the ability to decide if you are happy or not Happiness is a choice You can t depend on someone else to make you happy That is a lesson I 用心 爱心 专心7 learned early on in my marriage I realized that I couldn t rely on my husband as my source of happiness I learned that my happiness depended on me and not my husband s actions I learned that you have to choose to be happy You can choose your emotions True happiness comes from within it can t be forced by outside forces So how do you choose happiness The same way you choose to smile or choose to wear a certain outfit You choose it because that s what you want to experience in your life You want to buy a new pair of shoes so you choose a pair that you like and feel good You wouldn t buy a pair of shoes that you don t like or that don t fit well right So why do we keep choosing emotions and feelings that don t make us feel good Choosing to be happy after you realize your anger has shown up or even choosing to be calm can be beneficial We choose our feelings no one can do that for us If we let others get to us influence our emotions we are giving them power over us When others cause us anger or pain we are giving them our power We need to keep our feelings in check and not react automatically to what is thrown at us We need to think our actions out instead of just reacting to what someone says or does Remember that we can always choose happiness At first it will be difficult to just switch your thoughts and feelings from anger self doubt or fear to joy and happiness But it is only a thought away Don t dwell on what happens to you unnecessarily but realize what is causing you to feel that way Realize that thoughts feelings and emotions can change Then move on and choose to be happy 59 What s the best title of this passage A Pretend to Be HappyB Choose Your Emotions C Choose to Be HappyD Find Happiness 60 The lesson the writer learned in her marriage is A one can t rely on someone else to make himself or herself happy B balancing the relationship between the husband and wife is an art C she can depend on her husband to find happiness D happiness can be influenced by outside forces 61 Why did the writer mention buying shoes A To offer advice on how to choose comfortable shoes 用心 爱心 专心8 B To use it as an example to show the importance of choosing to be happy C To compare choosing shoes and choosing an outfit D To help to move to the next paragraph easily 62 The writer suggests that we should A let others control our feelings B respond immediately to others words C hold back our feelings properly D pay more attention to words than actions C C The young have been described as troublemakers They make adults feel unsafe to walk the streets and are generally out of control according to those who took part in a recent survey in Britain Yet the same report says thousands take part in community work and carry out charity 慈善 work The British newspaper The Sunday Sun thought it was time to give youngsters a chance to have their say They set up a special survey Demons 魔鬼 or Darlings to ask a series of questions For example if they had clashed 冲突 with important figures how they spend their spare time and how they feel towards adults About 84 2 percent believe adults have become less tolerant 宽容的 towards young people They describe adults as judgmental More than half of the young participants 参与者 appear to have been treated unfairly Meghan Bentley 16 and 17 year old Chelsea Laver Seeley said they had had enough of the public s understanding of teenagers as troublemakers We are not all like that Bentley said It s very stereotypical 有 成见的 We don t all hang around street corners Both Bentley and Laver Seeley are students at Mount Grace School Hertfordshire They help younger students with their studies and go into primary schools and read to children Why did teenagers get the reputation 名声 they have Bentley said she thought the media s fixation 思维定势 with youths and gang culture was having a bad effect on young people Kids watch a lot of TV and they look up to the people they see there she said Some think it s cool to carry knives They think that s what s right If they knew what was available to them and what they could get involved 用心 爱心 专心9 in there would be more choice for them Bentley said She added Give us a bit of praise every now and then to show people the good stuff teenagers are doing It s about time we got some recognition for what we do 63 From the passage what do we know about the British teenagers A They are troublemakers B They are sure about what they could get involved in C Most of them think adults have a wrong understanding of them D They are all very kind and helpful 64 In the passage the underlined word judgmental is closest in meaning to A critical B tolerant C positive D fair 65 According to Bentley why did teenagers get the reputation as troublemakers A They all hang around street corners B Because of the media s influence and bad effect of gang culture C Because adults treat them unfairly D They watch a lot of TV 66 The writer wrote this passage to A give youngsters a chance to have their say B report a special survey set up by The Sunday Sun C criticize adults unfairness D advise adults to give teenagers more praise and tolerance D D
