Some phones had become part of our daily life．No matter who we are，we can see people busy play with their smart phones．Smart phones benefit them．They help us escape the pressure of life and get informations．However，if we spend too much time on them，we won't have time to contact face to our friends and family．And our life，study and work will be hurt．In my view，we should limit to our using smart phones except for a purpose of learning．Meanwhile，it's absolute necessary for us to take part in more outdoor activities．

4．One of India's great economic advantages is the relative youth of its population．By 2020 it will become the world's youngest country，with 64% of its people at working age．To make the most of this advantage，India's children need to be educated．
On paper，India is doing well．The country has a nationwide network of state primary schools funded by an earmarked（指定的） tax．Some 96% of children aged 6-14go to school，even in rural areas．That's well above the average for the developing world and their attendance is good．But attainment is poor； three-quarters of third-graders can't read a grade-one text and 53% of grade-five kids can't read at the standard they should have achieved at grade two．Levels of achievement are almost as bad in maths．
"The main problem in India is not enrollment（入学人数） or whether there is a local school；it's the delivery of education---the way teaching is done or not done，"says Vinati Sukhdev，executive director of Pratham，a charity that campaigns for better education in India．According to Ms Sukhdev，the country's teachers are the third-best-paid in the world but they're poorly trained and are often absent---it's not uncommon for them to hold a second job outside school．Teacher attendance at primary level is only 85%，according to Pratham research and there is little punishment for those who don't turn up．
Because more than 30% of India's state primary schools are tiny establishments with just 60or even fewer pupils---rising to 60%in the far north and north east---the absence of a teacher is likely to mean that there is no learning that day．
The government knows that state schooling needs improving．In 2009，it passed the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act or the Right to Education （RTE） Act，a law for the national provision of free，child-friendly education．It says that there should be two teachers for every 60 students and that they should go to work regularly，get there on time，follow the curriculum，assess how well the children are learning and meet regularly with parents．
There has been some progress，though from a low base．According to Ms Sukhdev，45% of schools agree with the pupil/teacher ratios（比率），up from 39% in 2010，when the law took effect．Infrastructure is improving too．Two-thirds of state primaries now have a working toilet．
"What we need to do next is improve accountability（责任），"says Ms Sukhdev．Schools have management committees that are supposed to include parent and local government representatives．"But they don't work or people don't know they exist．"Pratham tries to help local communities and parents drive improvement．"You should see the kind of reaction we get when they realize the teacher is paid but isn't turning up!"says Ms Sukhdev．"We can't be everywhere，so we limit ourselves to working in a few districts，where we can create model schools．Then we try to work together with local governments to make sure every school in the district or state is raised to that level．"the Read India program was launched by Pratham in 2007and now it has created an easy-to-use teaching and assessment pack called Learning to read．It has trained teachers in how to use the pack in school and shown community health workers，volunteers and parents how it could support learning outside school．The program has now run across 19 states，involving 450，000 volunteers and training 600，000 teachers and government workers．Among the 33m children who have participated，the number of those who can read simple sentences has risen by 20%．
For Ms Sukhdev，the success of Read India underlines the need to find ideas that can be replicated（复制）．According to the UNESCO money and attendance level are important---but it's the quality of education delivered that really matters．

3．An app that does nothing but send a simple notification（提醒） of"Yo"to recipients is the most popular app right now in the US．
The app，named Yo，reached No.1on the Apple App Store in the US last week，after The Financial Times broke the story on June 18that the app has received﹩1 million （6.23 million yuan）in investment funding．
Created in just eight hours by Arbel，a 32-year-old app development from Tel Aviv，Israel，Yo claims to be the"simplest and most efficient communication tool in the world"．With a single tap，users can send the word"Yo"to one another in a voice notification-and nothing else．
Arbel said about his app in an interview with The New Yorker that，"It's a whole new way of communication．A hundred and forty characters is way too much these day…It's lightweight，easy，you don't have to open a message-the notification itself is everything you need．"
When Yo was launched on April Fools'Day this year，the Apple App Store at first rejected on the grounds that it lacked substance．Many people still see the app as a joke．
Arbel calls Yo"context-based（基于语境的） communication"and some people are beginning to"get it"．Jordan Crook，from Tech Crunch，explains why the context of a"Yo"says much more than two little letters：As with anything，a"Yo"can just be a"Yo"．But you'll feel a very real difference between a"Yo"get in the morning from a friend and a"Yo"you get in the evening from a board friend．Trust me．And that's the magic．
But people don't always want to load their"Yos"with meaning．David Shapiro，from The New Yorker，says now when he thinks about someone，he just"Yos"them instead of spending time starting and carrying on a conversation．He says it's a great way of saying："I'm thinking about you but I don't have anything in particular to say．"Social media constantly demands our time and attention．Not responding to text message and e-mail can hurt relationships．But，Shapiro says a"Yo"doesn't seem to demand a reply，"What a relief，"he says．

62．Which of the following is TRUE about the app Yo？D
A．It is a better type of social media than micro-blogging．
B．It was launched on April Fools'Day this year as a joke．
C．Because it is simple to use，it has become an instant success．
D．Though it enjoys great popularity in the US，opinions on it are still divided．
63．The underlined word"substance"in Paragraph 5 probably meansC．
A．adequate investment
B．necessary technique support
C．the quality of being meaningful
D．the quality of being fashionable
64．According to David Shapiro，YoB．

B．is an efficient way to connect with others．
C．is the best way to indicate that you're missing someone．
