A 17-year-old boy, caught sending text messages in class, was recently sent to the vice principal's office at Millwood High School in Halifax, Nova Scotia.The vice principal, Steve Gallagher, told the boy he needed to focus on the teacher, not his cellphone.The boy listened politely and nodded, and that's when Mr.Gallagher noticed the student’s fingers moving on his lap.He was texting while being scolded for texting.“It was a subconscious act,” says Mr.Gallagher, who took the phone away.“Young people today are connected socially from the moment they open their eyes in the morning until they close their eyes at night.It’s compulsive.”

A study this year by psychology students at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Ga., found that the more time young people spend on Facebook, the more likely they are to have lower grades and weaker study habits.Heavy Facebook users show signs of being more sociable, but they are also more likely to be anxious, hostile or depressed.( Doctors, meanwhile, are now blaming addictions to “night texting” for disturbing the sleep patterns of teens.)

Almost a quarter of today’s teens check Facebook more than 10 times a day, according to a 2009 survey by Common Sense Media, a nonprofit group that monitors media’s impact on families.Will these young people get rid of this habit once they enter the work force, or will employers come to see texting and “social-network checking” as accepted parts of the workday? k5u

Think back.When today’s older workers were in their 20s, they might have taken a break on the job to call friends and make after-work plans.In those earlier eras, companies discouraged non-business-related calls, and someone who made personal calls all day risked being fired.It was impossible to imagine the constant back-and-forth texting that defines interactions among young people today.

Educators are also being asked by parents, students and educational strategists to reconsider their rules.“In past generations, students got in trouble for passing notes in class.Now students are adept(熟练的) at texting with their phones still in their pockets,” says 40-year-old Mr.Gallagher, the vice principal, “and they’re able to communicate with someone one floor down and three rows over.Students are just fundamentally different today.They will take suspensions rather than give up their phones.” .

1.The underlined word “a subconscious act” refers to an act __________.

A.on purpose              B.without realization        

C.in secret                   D.with care

2.Young people addicted to the use of Facebook _________.

A.are good at dealing with the social relationships and concentrate on their study

B.have high spirits and positive attitudes towards their life and work

C.have been influenced mentally in the aspects of behaviors and habits

D.are always in bad mood and have poor performance in every aspect

3.Through the situation of today’s older workers in their 20s, it can be inferred that ___.

A.the employers will accept young people’s sending text messages

B.a cellphone is a must for today’s older workers instead of young people

C.the employers prefer older workers to young people

D.the employers will find it hard to control the interaction among young people

4.Mr.Gallagher reminds us that the students in the past and those today _________.

A.like to break rules and have the same means of sending messages

B.are always the big problem for the educators and their parents

C.like sending text messages but those today do it in a more secret and skillful way

D.cannot live without a cellphone

5.What’s the best title of the passage?

A.Teenagers and Cellphones         B.Teenagers’ Texting Addiction

C.Employers and Teenagers          D.Teenagers’ Education

Have you got a Facebook account? Are you thinking of getting one? Jamie Simmonds has just signed up. Let's see how she's getting along.

My Diary

MONDAY: I'm officially a Facebooker. I find a few people I used to know and I've soon got seven friends. I've never felt so popular! I wonder if my old university flatmate Steve is on here…What do you know! He is! Maybe Facebook has its uses.

TUESDAY: I've received lots of nice welcoming messages on my wall. Later, I meet up with Steve for a drink after not seeing him for five years. We get on really well! Then, he uses his Facebook app for iPhone to suggest me as a friend to some other former classmates. Some of them even come to the pub and it's just like old times – possibly a bit too much like old times. During the night, photos are uploaded to Facebook.

WEDNESDAY: Disaster! My mum's on Facebook! Has she seen the photos of me dancing on the table last night? Has she shown them to dad? Oh. And I have a friend request – mum again!

THURSDAY: There's a message from my boyfriend, “so, it's over then, is it?” Obviously I haven't changed my settings to show I'm “in a relationship”, and I haven't even added him as a friend. Ah, well, I wonder what my ex-boyfriend is doing… Whoops! I accidentally type his name into my status box instead of the search  and now every one can see it on their news feed.

FRIDAY: Time to update my status: “Work is boring. Can't wait for the weekend!” Oh, look, I've received a comment! Someone must feel the same way. Lots of my friends now “like” this status.

SATURDAY: Good news! I've got 100 friends. But wait! Someone has “un-friended” me! I look through my “friend list” to try to work out who it was. Why did they do that? Am I really such a terrible person? I never knew Facebook could be this cruel.

SUNDAY: Wake up. Check my Facebook page. Make coffee. Check my Facebook page again. Get ready to leave. Change my mind and check my Facebook page … again. I am becoming addicted to it! I think it's time to end it all before it takes over my life. I delete my account. Back to good, old, simple e-mails. Oh, look, I've got a message: A friend invited you to join Twitter. . .

    Who’s in control of your life? Who is pulling your string? For the majority of us, it’s other people – society, colleagues, friends, family or our religious community. We learned this way of operating when we were very young, of course.We were brainwashed.We discovered that feeling important and feeling accepted was a nice experience and so we learned to do everything we could to make other people like us.As Oscar Wilde puts it,“Most people are other people.Their thoughts are someone else’s opinions,their lives a mimicry(模仿),their passions a quotation.”
So when people tell us how wonderful we are,it makes us feel good.We long for this good feeling like a drug—we are addicted to it and seek it out wherever we can.Therefore,we are so eager for the approval of others that we live unhappy and limited lives,failing to do the things we really want to.Just as drug addicts and alcoholics live worsened lives to keep getting theirfix(一剂毒品),we worsen our own existence to get our own constant fix of approval.
But just as with any drug,there is a price to pay.The price of the approval drug is freedom--the freedom to be ourselves. The truth is that we cannot control what other people think.People have their own agenda,and they come with their own baggage and,in the end,they’re more interested in themselves than in you.Furthermore,if we try to live by the opinions of others,we will build our life on sinking sand.Everyone has a different way of thinking,and people change their opinions all the time.The person who tries to please everyone will only end up getting exhausted and probably pleasing no one in the process.
So how can we take back control? I think there’s only one way--make a conscious decision to stop caring what other people think.We should guide ourselves by means of a set of values—not values imposed from the outside by others,but innate values which come from within.If we are driven by these values and not by the changing opinions and value systems of others,we will live a more authentic,effective,purposeful and happy life.
67.What Oscar Wilde says implies that        .
A.we have thoughts similar to those of others
B.most people have a variety of thoughts
C.other people’s thoughts are more important
D.most people’s thoughts are controlled by others
68.What does the author try to argue in the third paragraph?
A.Changing opinions may cost us our freedom.
B.We may lose ourselves to please others.
C.We need to pay for what we want to get.
D.The price of taking the drug is freedom.
69.It can be concluded from the passage that         .
A.  it’s better to do what we like
B.we shouldn’t care what others think
C.we shouldn’t change our own opinions
D.it's important to accept others’ opinions
70.The author tries to persuade the readers to accept his arguments mainly by      .
A.analyzing causes and effects         
B.providing examples and facts
C.discussing questions               
D.making suggestions
