Weboholism ,a twentieth century disease, affects people from different ages. They surf the net, use e-mail and speak in chat rooms. They spend many hours on the computer, and it becomes a compulsive habit. They cannot stop, and it affects their lives.Ten years ago, no one thought that using computers could become a compulsive behavior that could affect the social and physical life of computer users. This obsessive behavior has affected teenagers and college students. They are likely to log on computers and spend long hours at different websites.They become booked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation. They spend all free time surfing and dont concentrate on homework so this addiction influences their grades and success at schools.

The virtual life becomes more important than their real life. They have a new language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society.Because of the change in their behavior, they begin to isolate themselves from the society and live with their virtual friends. They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life Although they feel confident on the computer, they are not confident with real life friends they have known all their life. lt is a problem for the future.

The authors attitude towards weboholism is that of being_.A. objective B. positive C. opposed D. acceptableDThe $ll billion self-help industry is built on the idea that you should turn negative thoughts like I never do anything right into positive ones like I can succeed. But was positive thinking advocated by Norman Vincent Peale right? Is there power in positive thinking?Researchers in Canada just published a study in the journal Psychological Science that says trying to get people to think more positively can actually have the opposite effect: it can simply highlight how unhappy they are.The studys authors, Joanne Wood and John Lee of the University of Waterloo and Elaine Perunovic of the University of New Brunswick, begin by citing older research showing that when people get feedback which they believe is overly positive, they actually feel worse, not better. If you tell your dim friend that he has the potential of an Einstein, youre just underlining his faults ,In one 1990s experiment, a team including psychologist Joel Cooper of Princeton asked participants to write essays opposing funding for the disabled. When the essayists were later praised for their sympathy, they. felt even worse about what they had written.In this experiment, Wood, Lee and Perunovic measured 68 students self-esteem. The participants were then asked to write down their thoughts and feelings for four minutes Every 15 seconds, one group of students heard a bell. When it rang, they were supposed to tell themselves, I am lovable.Those with low self-esteem didnt feel. better after the forced self-affirmation .In fact, their moods turned significantly darker than those of members of the control group, who werent urged to think positive thoughts.The paper provides support for newer forms of psychotherapy(心理理治疗) that urge people to accept their negative thoughts and feelings rather than fight them. In the fighting, we not only often fail but can make things worse. Meditation（静思） techniques, in contrast, can teach people to put their shortcomings into a larger, more realistic perspective. Call it the power of negative thinking.51. What do we learn from the first paragraph about the self-help industry?A It is a highly profitable industry.B. It is based on the concept of positive thinking.C. It was established by Norman Vincent Peale.D. It has yielded positive results.52. What is the finding of the Canadian researchers?A. Encouraging positive thinking may do more harm than good.B. There can be no simple therapy for psychological problems.C. Unhappy people cannot think positively.D. The power of positive thin king is limited.53.What does the author mean by .youre just underlining his faults(Para. 3) ?A. You are not taking his mistakes seriously enough.B You are pointing out the errors he has committed.C. You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent.D. You are trying to make him feel better about his faults.54. What do we learn from the experiment of Wood, Lee and Perunovic?A. It is important for people to continually boost their self-esteem.B. Self-affirmation can bring a positive change to ones mood.C. Forcing a person to think positive thoughts may lower their self-esteem.D. People with low self-esteem seldom write down their true feelings.55. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A The effects of positive thinking vary from person to personB. Meditation may prove to be a good form of psychotherapy.C. Different people tend to have different ways of thinking.D.
