18．Old people are easy to feel lonely because their children are busy with their work and have little time to spend with them．Most of them have to be companied by pet dogs．However，it is sometimes impossible for some old people to keep pet dogs because they are too old or ill to take care of pet dogs．
Experts are studying the influence of robotic dogs on old people's depression（忧郁症），physical activity，and life satisfaction．Researchers are placing robotic dogs in the homes of lonely old people to see whether they can improve the quality of life for old people．Alan Beck，an expert in human-animal relationship，said，"Old people should be more active，challenged，excited．The problem is how we promote that，especially for those without friends or help．A robotic dog could be a solution．"
In the study，the robot，called AIBO，is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who live alone．These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activities before and after AIBO．Researchers will collect basic data for six weeks．Then，the researchers will review the data to decide if there are any changes in the life of its owner．
"I talk to him all the time，and he responds to my voice，"says a 70-year-old lady．"When I'm watching TV，he'll stay in my arms until he wants down．He has a mind of his own．"
The AIBOs respond to certain orders．The researchers say they have some advantages over real dogs，especially for old people．Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it．A robotic dog needn't any exercise and feeding concerns．
"At the beginning，it was believed that no one would prefer the robotic dog because it was metal and not furry （毛茸茸的），"Beck says．"But it's amazing how quickly we have given up that belief．"
Hopefully，these robotic pets could become a more valuable health helper．They will record their masters'blood pressure，oxygen levels，or heart rhythms．AIBOs may even one day have games that can help exciting older people's minds．
63．From the passage we can learn that old people can easily feel lonely becauseC．
 A．their children don't like to stay with them
B．they don't have pet dogs
C．their children are too busy to stay with them
D．they don't have robotic dogs
64．The underlined word"note"in the third paragraph means"C"．
A．to give notice   B．to pay attention   C．to write down   D．to talk about
65．The author may believe that the future robotic dogs canB．
A．help excit old people's minds   
B．take the place of real dogs
C．cure a lot of serious diseases   
D．change people's beliefs

A．Pet Dogs Need Robotic Dogs   
B．Old People Need Robotic Dogs
C．All People Need Robotic Dogs   
D．Researchers Need Robotic Dogs．

19．How many times have parents had to argue with their young son or daughter about getting their face out of their phone and focusing on the world around them？It's completely normal for parents of growing children to be concerned about their child's safety，but is their addiction to social media really harming them？
Social media was created to connect people with others online and has recently been added to smartphones，making it far more accessible than it originally was．This new way to easily be able to use social media has encouraged children and teens to begin to use sites such as Facebook，Twitter，and Instagram frequently．Maturing teens and children are usually very timid（胆怯）when it comes to socializing with their families，which they sometimes view as"annoying"．So，what do these kids use as a solution or an"escape"？The answer is simple．social media．
However，when they use social media for a large amount of time，parents tend to show concern for their child and blame social media for demanding their attention．
The word，"social"，was entered into the term，social media，for a reason．Parents of growing teens don't seem to understand that．When they see their child using Twitter or Instagram they think that they are using it to get away from real world responsibilities．The truth，however，is that they are using it to connect with their close friends，make new friends，and receive information about what is currently happening in the modern world．
Children and teens are wrongly accused for using social media only for entertainment purposes and for huge amounts of time．Sure everyone who uses social media enjoys contacting their friends and viewing entertaining things，but how come children receive all of the blame for abusing it？Parents should really think about how social media can help children and teens learn and grow in the real world rather than it just being another distraction（分心事）．
Social media as a whole has both positive and negative aspects，but after all of the feedback from pre-teens，teens，and parents is put together，it shows that media is actually helping the newer generations in their lives．

28．What causes the parents to be worried about their children？B
A．Using smartphones．    
B．Using too much social media．
C．Playing games online．
D．Failing to socialize with families．
29．When social media is added to smartphones，it makesB．
A．smartphones operate faster    
B．it more convenient to use
C．children crazy about smartphones 
D．adults feel frequently disturbed
30．According to the fourth paragraph，children use social media toC．
A．kill time    
B．entertain themselves
C．keep themselves informed 
D．connect with their parents
31．What's the writer's attitude towards children using social media？A
A．Supportive．    B．Doubtful．    
C．Indifferent．   D．Disapproving．
