  There was a time when parents who wanted an educational present for their children would buy a typewriter, a globe or an encyclopedia set. Now those items seem hopelessly old-fashioned. This Christmas, there were a la of 1 computers under the tree. 2 that computers are the key to 3 , parents are also insisting frantically (狂乱地) that children, 4 taught to use them in school as early as possible.

  The problem for schools is 5 it comes to computers, parents don't always know best . Marry schools are 6 parental patience and are buying hardware 7 proper educational planning so they can say, “OK, we've moved into the computer age.” Teachers 8 themselves caught in the middle of the problem between parent pressure and 9 educational decisions.

  Educators do not even agree 10 how computers should be used. A lot of money is going for computerized educational materials 11 research has shown can be taught 12 with pencil and paper. Even those who believe that all children should have the chance to learn computers, warn people 13 potential(潜在的) 14 to the very young.

I was born in Korea, and my family came over to America when I was 10. I’m the middle child of three girls, and my parents moved so we would experience a different life. They did it for our education and to give us more of a chance than they had. We moved to Staten Island, and I went to the High School of Performing Arts in New York City. My parents didn’t agree with me when I told them I wanted to be an actress. My father suggested I try premed(医学预科). But after they saw me in plays they were really proud.
I graduated from Boston University and was doing theater in New York when I got cast in a Korean miniseries(电视连续剧). We started shooting the show in New York, and then went to Korea to finish it up. They said I would be there for three weeks, but it ended up being two months. The miniseries took off, and overnight, I became recognizable. It was sort of like Lost. It blew up. Then amazing projects were offered to me. I kept thinking, “ I’ll do one more and then go back to the US.” I ended up staying for seven years.
Some people described me as the Julia Roberts of Korea, which is a bad comparison because she’s the queen of romantic comedy. I became famous in Korea for a dramatic role in a film called Shiri. I played a “La Femme Nikita” type of role. I was the girl with gun—all action.

GENEVA, Feb.11 (Xinhua) ―The current La Nina weather phenomenon may just be a partial cause of south China’s freeze-up at the start of 2008, said the United Nations World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Monday.

The latest La Nina pattern, which began in the third quarter of 2007, has picked up strength in the past three months, with sea surface temperatures now about 1. 5 to 2 degrees Celsius(摄氏度)colder than average over large parts of the eastern and central equatorial Pacific Ocean, said the latest report issued by the WMO.

Presenting the Geneva-based body’s report, Rupa Kumar Killi, a WMO climate expert, said the recent month-long snow and ice-storms in China’s central, southern and eastern regions could be connected with the La Nina phenomenon, the climatic opposite of El Nino(厄尔尼诺现象).

However, he said China’s freeze-up was a result of several causes combined and was partly caused by a cold surge from the north and west.

He also said the present La Nina cycle may last at least until mid-2008 and it is also possible, if less likely, that the cycle could stretch into the third quarter.

La Nina is a large pool of unusually cold water in the equatorial Pacific that develops every few years and influences global weather. It is the climatic opposite of El Nino, a warming of the Pacific, and both have been associated with extreme weather around the globe.

Since Jan. 10, snow, sleet and low temperatures have swept China’s southern regions, a rare occurrence for the area.

A. In the spring of 2007.                    B. In the summer of 2007.

C. In the fall of 2007.                        D. In the winter of 2007.

53. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Due to the La Nina, sea surface temperatures become colder over the eastern Pacific Ocean.

B. The La Nina phenomenon is the climatic opposite of El Nino.

C. There were several causes which brought about China’s freeze-up.

D. The present La Nina cycle may last until spring in 2008 and disappear.

54. What can we learn from the sixth paragraph?

A. La Nina does not happen every year but it influences global weather.

C. La Nina happens every year but seldom influences global weather.
