On her first morning in America ， last summer ， my daughter went out to explore her new neighbourhood―alone, without even telling my wife or me. Of course we were wor?ried; we had just moved from Berlin, and she was just 8. But when she came home, we realized we had no reason to panic. Beaming with pride, she told us how she had discovered the little park around the corner, and had made friends with a few local dog owners.

When this story comes up in conversations with Ameri?can friends, we usually meet with polite disbelief. Most are horrified by the idea that their children might roam (闲逛) around without adult supervision(监管).

A study by the University of California has found that American kids spend 90 per cent of their leisure time at home, often in front of the TV or playing video games. Such narrowing of children's world has happened across the devel?oped world. But German parents are generally much more ac?cepting of letting children take some risks.

"We are depriving(剥夺)them of opportunities to learn how to take control of their own lives," writes Peter Gray, a research professor at Boston College. He argues that this in?creases the chance that they will suffer from anxiety, depres?sion, and various other mental disorders, which have gone up dramatically in recent decades.

I am no psychologist like Professor Gray, but I know I won't be around forever to protect my girls from the challen?ges life holds in store for them. And by giving kids more con?trol over their lives, they learn to have more confidence in their own capabilities.

5. Hearing the author's daughter exploring the new neighbour?hood alone, his American friends feel .

A. worried B. proud

C. doubtful D. terrified

6. We can conclude from Paragraph 3 that .

A. American kids enjoy playing at home

B. German parents are less protective than American par?ents

C. German kids like taking risks more than American kids

D. American parents don't limit their children's activities in their leisure time

7. It's implied from Professor Gray's words that ,

A. parents should always be around their children to pro?tect them from risks

B. more and more parents suffer from mental problems

C. children are having more opportunities to take control of their lives

D. giving children more freedom is beneficial for their mental development

8.Which of the following words can best describe the author's parenting?

A. Liberal. B. Irresponsible.

C. Careless. D. Protective.

A〖2015'泉州市普通高中毕业班质检〗Each Sunday, people can hear the music of the Mission Dolores Basilica in San Francisco. The Spanish missionaries (传教士） built the church in 1791. It was the start of a spe?cial kind of neighbourhood: the Mission District.

The area is a place with a long and varied history. One community member says that it's important for people to un?derstand the many levels of history in the neighbourhood. He feels that this knowledge is a big part of understanding what it means to be a real San Franciscan.

One of the most interesting parts of the district is its peo?ple. Over the years? immigrants have come to the area from Ireland* Germany, and Italy. But the most recent immigrants are mainly from Latin America. It's easy to see the style that these recent additions give to the neighbourhood. You can see it in the art on the walls, taste it in the food, and hear it in the music!

Juan Pedro Gaffney Rivera, the director of the Spanish Choir(唱诗班)of San Francisco, says that the people there share the pain and happiness of their friends and family mem?bers and that music has always been a basic part of cultural i-dentity in the district. He feels that the music of the district is colourful and lively.

But it isn't just its music that's colourful and lively. Its art is full of life as well.

The local art community stays close to the area's culture and tradition. A local art organization often leads people on walks through the district. They visit streets like Balmy Alley, which is famous for its murals (壁画).Even though the meanings behind the murals are always changing, they are still very powerful. One artist explains that they are fighting for fairness in the community and to help the environ?ment through murals. Apparently, they're something the community likes.

Many of these artists feel that the district is a successful neighbourhood where new immigrants are welcome. "People see that they're not so different from each other," says one artist. "There are a lot of things that bind(捆绑)the immi?grants through culture and tradition.，，

Teachers say the digital age has had a good influence - and a not-so-good influence - on this generation of American teenagers．More than 2,000 teachers took an online survey．Three-quarters of the teachers said the Internet and digital search tools have had a "mostly positive" effect on their students' research habits and skills．But 64 percent said the technologies "do more to distract（使 - - - ---分心） students than to help them academically．" And 87 percent agreed that these technologies are creating an "easily distracted generation with short attention spans．"

The Pew Internet Project did the survey with the National Writing Project．Judy Buchanan is the vice director of the National Writing Project and a co-author of the report．Ms．Buchanan says digital research tools are helping students learn more and faster．"Teachers really favor these tools because they are ways to make some of the learning exciting and engaging．Young people favor these tools．The goal is to really help them become creators of meaningful content, and not just sort of consumers．"

But one problem the survey found is that many students lack digital literacy．They trust too muck of the information they find on the Internet．Judy says these students haven't developed the skills to determine the quality of online information．"It's something that really has to be taught and paid attention to．Because in a world in which things happen quickly, you do need to step back, reflect and analyze the information you have．"

Another problem is blamed on something that might not seem like a problem at all: being able to quickly find information online．Teachers say the result is a reduction in the desire and ability of their students to work hard to find answers．They say students are overly dependent on search engines and do not make enough use of printed books or research libraries．

Many teachers are also concerned that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others instead of using their own abilities．

1.The text mainly tells us____．

A．all the students use digital tools

B．the Internet is playing a key role

C．teachers encourage using digital tools

D．digital tools bring about benefits and problems

2.Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?

3.The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means__________.

A．students do not have the right digital tools

B．students do not always have access to the Internet

C．students haven't the ability to adjust themselves

D．students can't judge online information properly

4.Some students don't tend to work hard because__________.

A．they can get answers on the Internet quickly

B．printed books and libraries around aren't enough

C．the Internet can't make students concentrate

D．they can copy each others' work without being punished

Few of us haven’t read Cinderella, the story of a young woman living in poverty who meets the prince of her dreams．Some might not want to admit it, but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyone’s heart—we all wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period of obscurity （默默无闻）．

Mary Santiago has that secret dream, too．Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story, a film set in a US high school．

Mary is shy but loves to dance．Compared with other girls, she is invisible．However, her world changes completely when a famous teenager pop singer, Joey Parker, appears．

Joey is everything the rest of the boys in her class are not—kind, handsome and desirable．Mary and Joey’s paths cross at a ball．They meet and fall in love with each other．But when Mary has to rush back home, she leaves behind her MP3 player, which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams．Of course, there is a wicked stepmother, who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary after her dancer mother dies．Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make sure Mary doesn’t get into the top dance school．Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary, even if that means embarrassing her．

The story, though it mostly follows Cinderella, does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale．Refreshingly, the film, unlike many high school films, does not focus on looks, although the actors are all beautiful．There is also a lot less materialism in Another Cinderella Story than in many similar movies．

“The movie takes the Cinderella fairytale as its jumping off point,” writes movie critic Amber Wilkinson．“Yet the focus is firmly on following your dream．”

A．inform us of the importance to marry a prince

2.In the movie, Mary Santiago is the main character who _________．

3.What can we infer from the passage?

A．Joey is just like other boys in Mary’s class．

B．The MP3 player helps Joey in finding Mary．

C．Not many people have a dream to be realized．

D．Mary’s mother influences her a lot in singing．

4.What does movie critic Amber Wilkinson mean by his words about Another Cinderella Story?

A．The movie is exactly another copy of the Cinderella fairytale．

B．The movie is as good as the story Cinderella．

C．The movie and Cinderella both focus on following your dream．

D．The movie is based on the story Cinderella while a little different from it．
