【题目】A new Australian research indicates that children with a stutter (结巴) do not suffer disadvantages at school, More than ten percent of children have a stutter by the age of four but they score just as high as other children on tests designed to judge their language, thinking skills and character.

Professor Reillys team studied over 1600 children from Melbourne, Australia. Their mothers had been filling out regular questionnaires since their babies were eight months old and the children were judged by a range of language and behaviour tests when they reached the age of four. Reilly and her colleagues asked the parents to call the study group if their children started showing signs of stuttering. Diagnoses were confirmed by a researcher, who then visited the homes of children with a stutter every month to check on their progress.

By the age of four, 181 of the children studied had been diagnosed with a stutter. Follow-up visits to the 181 children who were judged after diagnoses showed just nine no longer had a stutter one year later. Stuttering children scored 5. 5 points higher than that of their non-stuttering children on language tests and 2. 6 points higher on the test of non-verbal intelligence. The researchers said it was possible that stuttering could improve language skills, or that stuttering could result from very fast language development among some children.

The research suggests parents of children who stutter are usually advised to wait a year before looking for treatment which can be expensive to see if the stutter goes away by itself, unless the children become very unhappy or stop talking.

【题目】 Just 25 years ago,the top three career hopes for young people in Britain were teacher,banker and doctor. Now,they want to be sports star,pop star and actor,according to a survey by the Guardian newspaper.

Rachel,a character in the popular TV show Glee,may be said to speak for British teenagers. “Nowadays being nobody is worse than being poor,” he said.

Emma Brockes,a reporter from Guardian,believes it is “the bad influence of celebrity(名人) culture” that is to blame. “When children wanted to be doctor,it wasn't because they were really more interested in the functions of human organs than they are now;you go where the respect is,”she wrote.

It could explain why there has been such an increase in levels of anxiety and depression. Dr. Carlo Strenger,of Tel Aviv University,studied the sense of self for his new book The Fear of Insignificance:Searching for Meaning in the 21st Century. He told Daily Mail that young people now are affected by the close connection to the global entertainment network,which has turned ranking and rating people according to wealth and celebrity into an obsession(痴迷).

“As humans,we naturally measure ourselves against those around us,but now we live in a global village. We are comparing ourselves with the most ‘important’ people in the world and finding ourselves wanting,” he said. Today,even high achievers constantly fear that they are insignificant when they compare themselves to success stories in the media.

The way out?Simply stop measuring your achievements through a fantasy of wealth and celebrity. Dr. Strenger said that it is a process called “active self-acceptance through a constant search for self-knowledge through life”.

“The fear of insignificance can only be overcome through strong individual and cultural identity over and above measurable achievements,” he said.

【1】Nowadays,young people in Britain want to ________.

A.choose jobs based on interests

B.become famous

C.be teacher,banker or doctor

D.earn more money

【2】According to Emma Brockes,what causes the increasing level of anxiety?

A.The choice of future career.

B.The access to the global network.

C.The bad influence of celebrities.

D.The endless comparison with others.

【3】Which of the following is true of Dr. Carlo Strenger?

A.He is a newspaper reporter.

B.He is a spokesman of teenagers.

C.He tells success stories on TV.

D.He is against ranking people by wealth.

【4】Dr. Carlo Strenger suggests that young people should ______.

A.seek active self-acceptance

B.stick to their own dreams

C.make great achievements

D.search for the secret of wealth

【5】The text is mainly written to ________.
