C
A 17-year-old boy, caught sending text messages in class, was recently sent to the vice principal's office.The vice principal, Steve Gallagher, told the boy he needed to focus on the teach- er, 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 con-nected socially from the moment they open their eyes in the moming 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 alsomore likely to be anxious, hostile or depressed.
Almost a quarter of today's teens check Facebook more than 10 times a day, according to a2009 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 cometo see texting and 'social-network checking' as accepted parts of the workday? Think bac.k.Whentoday's older workers were in their 20s, they might have taken a break on the job to call friends andmake 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 con-stant back-and-forth texting that defines interactions among young people today.Educators are alsobeing asked by parents, students and educational strategists to reconsider their rules."In past gen-erations, students got in trouble for passing notes in class.Now students are good at texting withtheir phones stiU 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 fun-amentally different today.They will take suspensions rather than give up their phones."
66.The underlined word“a subconscious act" in the first paragraph refers to an act______
A.on purpose                      B.without realization
C.in secret                       D.with care
67.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 respect

A.the employers will not 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

Here are some comments on Li Hua from his classmates.

Lily said, Li Hua is the smartest student in our class and scores the highest marks in the English and mathematics exams. His homework and assignments are always done to a very high standard so our teachers ask us to follow his example. We all admire his intelligence.

Kate said, Li Hua is really a hard-working student. He spends at least four hours every day reviewing his lessons and his homework is never late. As the exams get closer he becomes even more diligent and works into the early hours of the morning, making sure he has gone over all of the information covered in our classes.

John said, Li Hua is the kind of person who is easy to co-operate with. Although he’s very clever he is still willing to listen to others’ opinions and take their suggestions. When we do our groupwork in class we all want to be in his group because he always does his share of the work and is easy to get along with.

Tim said, Li Hua is the class monitor and the most helpful student in our class. He always makes sure the classroom is kept clean and assists the teachers in handing out and collecting the students’ books and homework. When a student is absent from school he will call and tell them what they have missed.

读写任务阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文

Since I started high school,there have been many misunderstandings between my parents and me.They think I am in puppy love(早恋).

They secretly check my text messages and listen in on my phone conversations.They also talk with my class teacher and keep telling me how bad puppy love is.What my parents have done drives me so crazy that I have had several violent quarrels with them.I know they are trying to protect me from being hurt,but I just feel they are ignoring my need for privacy and independence.

I don't want this to go on,so I have decided to take some action.I on purpose leave my text

message and diaries about for them to read.I stay in their sight while I am talking on the phone and avoid joking with boys.I spend more time at home studying than hanging out and trying my best to improve my school performance.

Gradually,my parents have started to calm down.They hardly ever check my messages any more and allow me to talk with male classmate.I'm happy that they are beginning to trust me.

In our life,misunderstandings happen at times and bother us.But if we can put our feet into other's shoes and take positive action,a misunderstanding can be a chance to achieve better understanding.
