Bored at school now?  How do you think it will look in the future? Last week, about 600 teenagers in the U.S. imagined a future changed by technology in which their lessons are taught by robots and they learn about celebrities (名人)and alien(外星人)languages.
According to a survey published last week by the U.S. ,Internet service provider American Online(AOL), only one in 100 thinks that in the future they will walk from home to school; the rest believe they will use jet packs, and hover boards(滑板) as everyday transport.
All the participants(参与者)of the survey are teenagers born into the Internet age. The study is to show how the first cyber (网络的)generation dream about a future life created by advanced technology.
Most believe there will still be schools to go to, but that technology will play an increasingly important role in learning. The 600 teens surveyed think there will still be teachers, but 37 percent imagine them to be robots. Some 24 percent believe that teachers will still be human but they will have inter-changeable microchips so that one person can teach all subjects.
More than one in two believe hover boarding will be popular, while one-third say that wearing rocket boots will be their favorite activity. Another third think jet packs will be popular. Nearly 30 percent think playing football and bike-riding will remain popular.
When it comes to the curriculum(课程), they think future generations will be learning about robot building(63 percent), alien languages(47 percent) celebrities(26 percent) and R’n’B music(22 percent).
Children will wear virtual(虚拟的)reality helmets(头盔) to bring lessons to life, say 40 percent, while over 20 percent believe they will not need lessons because microchips implanted(植入)in their head will send relevant information into the brain. Matt Whyman, adviser to the chief medical officer on youth issues of AOL, said: “ The kids seem very aware of the liberation qualities of technology.”

In South Korea, children get used to the Internet at an early age. A survey last year by the Ministry of information and Communication showed that nearly half of children between the age of 3 and 5 use the internet.

“In south Korea, the Internet has become a babysitter, said Lee Kyong Ko, a professor at Duksing, Women’s University in Seoul.   

Online role-playing games, where participants make friends and band together, have a strong appeal to Koreans,“One problem with those games is that you build your online person through countless hours of battles, and you develop a huge emotional attachment to your game character,”said Chang Woo Min, a one-time online gamer.

Parents report that their children steal money and do not come home for days and even weeks, practically living in Internet Cafes, and sometimes they refuse to look for jobs and play games all night and sleep during the day.

The authorities require Internet cafes to keep their distance from schools, and they open camps for teenage addicts and distribute booklets(小册子) on the dangers of game addiction. In addition, they are training hundreds of counselors, who visit schools and Internet Cafes.

In the 28,000 Internet Cafes in South Korea, persons under 18 are banded from entry after 10 p.m.. The authorities have even discussed reducing the points of gamers who play for more than three consecutive (连续的) hours, But such talks have produced no agreement, amid concerns that such restrictions would put a high-growth industry in danger and worse the problem of teenagers stealing adult online identification numbers,“Sooner or later we will be able to announce our measures,”the minister of Information and Communication, Rho Jun Hyoung, said at a news conference in May.“Since South Korea is one of the most active and developed countries in the Internet, the world is paying great attention to What policy we will adopt on this problem.”

1.According to the passage, in order to solve the Internet problem, the authorities of South Korea took the following measures EXCEPT              

A.demanding the Internet Cafes to be far away from schools

B.telling the students about the dangers of game addiction

C.training counselors to visit schools and cafes

D.banning all the people from entering the Internet after 10 p.m.

2.We can learn that                 from the passage.

A.most children under 6 in the South Korea use the Internet

B.some parents hope their children use the Internet only at home

C.all kinds of measures are not supported by all the people

D.the authorities in the South Korea believe that it is most active and developed country in the Inter

3.In paragraph 2,the underlined sentence “the Internet has becomes a babysitter”means     .

A.children are well looked after on the Internet

B.children likes sitting in the Internet Cafes

C.children can earn money working as a babysitter in Internet Cafes

D.Internet has become a place where children are looked after while their parents are not there

     We closely followed the advice in your article. First, we replaced all our telephones with carrier
pigeons. Simply removing the jingle of telephones and replacing them with the pleasant sounds of birds

we are a business. We have to think of the bottom line. As a side benefit, the birds also fertilize the lawn
outside the new employee sauna.
     Next, we sold the computers of, to Stab, Grab, Grit, and Nasty, a firm of lawyers nearby. Our
electricity bill went way down. Big savings! The boss is impressed. We have completely embraced paper
technology. Now that we all use pencils, doodling is on the increase, and the quality of pencilwomanship
is impressive, as you can tell from my handwriting in this letter. By the way, if you can, please send this
letter back to us. We can erase and reuse it. Just tie it to Maggie's leg and she'll know where to take it.
     Now it's very calm and quiet here. You can notice the di fference. No more loud chatter on the
telephones! All we hear is the scratching of pencil on paper, the sound of pigeons, and the delivery of inter-
office correspondence by paper airplane.
     Wonderful! I've always wanted to work for an insurance company ever since I was a little girl. Now
it's perfect.
