　　Books are not Nadia Konyk's thing．Her mother, hoping to attract her, brings them home from the library, but Nadia rarely shows an interest．Instead, like so many other teenagers, Nadia, 15, is addicted to the Internet．She regularly spends at least six hours a day in front of the computer．

　　Nadia checks her e-mail and reads careful through my yearbook com, a social networking site, reading messages or posting updates on her mood．She searches from music videos on youtube.com and logs onto gaiaonline.com, a role-playing site where members exchange identities as cartoon characters．But she spends most of her time on quizilla.com or fanfiction．net, reading and commenting on stories written by other users and based on books, television shows or movies．

　　Her mother, Deborah Konyk, would prefer that Nadia read books for a change．But at this point, Ms．Konyk said,“I'm just pleased that she reads something anyway．”

　　Children like Nadia lie at the heart of a passionate(狂热的)debate about just what it means to read in the digital age．As teenagers' scores on standardized reading tests have declined, some argue that the hours spent surfing the Internet is the enemy of reading-reducing literacy, destroying attention spans and a valuable common culture that exists only through the reading of books．

　　But others say the Internet has created a new kind of reading, one that schools and society should not discount．The Web inspires a teenager like Nadia, who might otherwise spend most of his leisure time watching television, to read and write．

　　Even talented book readers like Zachary Sims, 18, of Old Greenwich, Conn．, carve the ability to quickly find different points of view on a subject and talk with others online．Some children with dyslexia(诵读困难)or other learning difficulties, like Hunter Gaudet, 16, of Somers, Conn．, have found it far more comfortable to search and read online．

“Up until about five years ago, students at this school could have worn anything they wanted on Halloween,” said Rosemarie Nielson, a sixth-grade teacher at St. Theresa School, a Roman Catholic elementary school in the Pelham Bay section of the Bronx where there is a prohibition on toy weapons.

“When you consider all the horrific things that have happened in recent years, including 9/11, I can’t blame any school for wanting to stay away from anything that might promote violence,” Ms. Nielson said.

　Mary Ellen Manniello, whose daughter, Courtney, 9, is a fourth grader at St. Gabriel School, a Roman Catholic elementary school in the Riverdale section of the Bronx, said she understood why officials had banned weapons with costumes. “They’re learning more about guns from issues in the street than educational issues.”

　This year, the school has gone one step further and is prohibiting all costumes at its Halloween festivities. Ms. Manniello said it had become “a chaotic scene,” with parents helping their children change into their costumes at school.

　Some parents said the no-weapons policy for Halloween costumes went too far and denied children a chance to express themselves.

　“Halloween has always been the one day when it was acceptable for our children to be dresssed like somebody they are not, like a cowboy or a pirate or a person from outer space, and now we’re taking that away from them,” said Laura Santoro, a nurse from New Milford, Conn., whose 7-year-old son, Johnny, is a second grader at Northville Elementary School there.

　Ms. Santoro said that her son would dress as Capt. Jack Sparrow, the character played by Johnny Depp in the “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies, at the school’s Halloween party, but that he would not be allowed to take a sword — part of a policy that caught her by surprise last Halloween.

　“I sent my son to school last year dressed as a special force Power Ranger, and he was told that he couldn’t take along his red laser blaster, which really surprised me, because the laser is red and made of plastic and lights up, and it could never, ever be mistaken for a real gun,” Ms. Santoro said. “I mean, come on, the whole thing is getting really sad.”

59. What do you think is the writer’s purpose of writing the passage?

A. To introduce to the public the no-weapons policy for Halloween costumes.

B. To state parents’ attitudes towards the no-weapons policy for Halloween costumes.

C. To tell the public that children should bring any weapons for Halloween costumes.

D. To analyse the fact that the no-weapons policy for Halloween costumes goes too far.

60. According to the passage, some parents understand the no-weapon policy for Halloween costumes because ____________.

A. schools should take a cautious approach to Halloween to prevent violence.

B. children are buying real guns in the street and there is always violence now.

C. those parents like to help their children change into their costumes at school.

D. children are learning more about guns from educational issues.

61. Which of the following is probably right according to the passage?

A. Children could bring any weapons into school five or six years ago.

B. The parents surveyed are those whose children are in elementary schools.

C. Guns are necessary on Halloween for children to express themselves.

D. Jack Sparrow is an actor who at one time acted as a pirate in a movie.

62. What do the underlined words “laser blaster” in the last paragraph refer to?

A. A toy weapon. B. A real gun.

C. A kind of costume. D. A kind of plastic.
