It seems as if cell phone could be the protection that parents expecting the kids to have freedom and be safe have been looking for. Let’s 1 your 11-year-old son is going on a long bike ride with a friend, so they take along your cell phone 2 they need help. Not only could they call you if necessary, but 3 Global Positioning Systems (GPS) equipped on many mobile phones today, your son and his friend could also be 4 easily. Plus, with a special service, you could track the boy’s 5 location. Or consider this: If your daughter is 6 herself and three friends to a concert, she could 7 out exactly how to locate the concert and get back home by using her equipped cell phone. And through a(n) 8 software package, you could 9 __her whereabouts (行踪).
10 tracking devices as we all consider useful, however, have 11 . If the boys urgently needed help during the ride, 12 might be too late by the time someone found them. And if they wanted to, the concert-going girls could deviate (偏离) from the 13 route and go to a night club after the 14 —they could turn off the phone or leave it in their own car and drive with someone else.
Cell phones and their accompanying programs are tools for 15 children safety today, but all of them are 16 extremely reliable. Under no circumstances does 17 else replace a well-established parent-child relationship 18 love and trust.
If you do decide to let your kids use these devices, don’t rely 19 on them for protection. Your children need you to watch them, but 20 will never take the place of your time, attention, eyes, and ears when overseeing your child’s whereabouts.

查看习题详情和答案>>In many African countries, the care of orphans has been mainly led by foreign donor organizations. However, Sister Florence has changed all that. Using her own resources, Sister Florence is leading the work of raising orphans from different backgrounds. Sister Florence Wanjala’s biggest motivation to start the orphan program was when she saw a little boy whose parents had died. The boy was living with a cruel grandparent and he would visit the grave of his mother, crying for support. Sister Wanjala wanted to give a helping hand and give him hope. From that time, she started feeling the call to help a larger number of orphans.
She opened an office with a few friends and coordinated (协调)a program to help the orphans. All the registrations were done in the office and the program so far has 8000 children. Sister Wanjala said, “My dream is to help the orphan to live a holistic (完整)life and be a good Kenyan citizen to help this country. Many people think that the way to support orphans is to put them in an institution. Others support them up to the age of eighteen, but here, we do it very differently.” For Sister Wanjala, putting a child in an institution is normally her last choice. She prefers the orphans to live in a foster home.
She said, “I’m so encouraged and happy to see the orphans succeeding. When they come first or second in class, it shows how the program has helped them, and that’s encouraging to me as I continue to coordinate the program.” Through her charity work, more than 1000 orphans have been able to find a home. Sister Wanjala, as a mother, takes care of her own family.
1.What inspired Sister Wanjala to start the orphan program?
A. Her preference for kids. B. Her own similar experience.
C. A sad story about an orphan. D. Her successful charity work.
2.Sister Wanjala opened an office mainly to ______.
A. set up as many institutions as possible for orphans
B. start a program to offer orphans a foster family
C. provide school education for those orphans
D. raise more money for the homeless kids
3.What does the underlined sentence probably mean?
A. She didn’t want orphans to live in an institution.
B. She preferred to put orphans into an institution.
C. She had no choice but to put orphans in institutions.
D. She sent orphans into an institution in the end.
4.What can we learn from the text?
A. Sister Wanjala finally adopted the little boy.
B. Sister Wanjala found foster homes for 8000 orphans.
C. Sister Wanjala was too busy to care for her own family.
D. Sister Wanjala was not alone in helping orphans.

If there is no difference in general intelligence(智力)between boys and girls,what can explain girls' poor performance in science and mathematics?
It seems to be that their treatment at school is a direct cause.Mathematics and science are seen as subjects mainly for boys,and therefore ,as girls become tee
nagers,they are less likely to take them.Interestingly,both boys and girls often
regard the subjects for boys as more difficult.Yet it has been suggested that girls do not take mathematics courses ,not because they are difficult,but for social reasons.Girls do not want to be in open competition with boys because they are afraid to appear less feminine(女性的)and attractive.
However,if we examine the performance of boys and girls who have taken mathematics courses,there are still more high?achieving boys than there are girls.This difference appears to be world?wide.Biological explanations have been offered for this,but there are other explanations too.
Perhaps the difference which comes out during the teenage years has its roots in much earlier experiences.From their first days in kindergarten,boys are encouraged to work on their own and to complete tasks.Facts show that outstanding(杰出的)mathematicians and scientists have not had teachers who supplied answers.
Besides,there can be little doubt that teachers of mathematics and science expect their boy students to do better at these subjects than their girl students.They even appear to encourage the difference between boys and girls.They spend more time with the boy students ,giving them more time to answer questions and working harder to get correct answers from them.They are more likely to call on boys for answers and to allow them to take the lead in classroom discussion.They also praise boys more frequently.All of this seems to encourage boys to work harder in science and mathematics and to give them confidence(信心)that they are able to succeed.
Such a way of teaching is not likely to encourage girls to take many mathematics
and science courses,nor is it likely to support girls who do.When it comes to these subjects it seems certain that school widens the difference between boys and girls.
1.Girls are likely to think that____________.
A.science courses are for both boys and girls
B.science courses make them more popular
C.science courses make them successful
D.science courses are difficult for them
2.The text mainly discusses_____________reasons for the difference between boys and girls in scientific achievements.
A.biological B.historical C.social D.personal
3.What are boys usually encouraged to do at school?
A.To get help with their homework.
B.To play the leading role in class.
C.To work with girl students in class.
D.To learn to take care of others.
4.What does the passage say about great mathematicians?
A.Their teachers did not supply answers to them.
B.They started learning mathematics at an earlier age.
C.They showed mathematical abilities in their teenage years.
D.Their success resulted from their strong interest in mathematics.?
5.The author would probably agree that_____________.
A.boys and girls learn in the same way
B.boys and girls are equal in general intelligence
C.girls are more confident in themselves than before
D.girls should take fewer science courses than boys
