  How often do you change your hairstyle or ask for new dresses?You may be   1  to follow trends(潮流)in Western countries, but young people in the United States don’t care as much about   2   as you do.

  A recent survey(调查)among high school   3   in China, Japan, South Korea and the US found that   4   teenagers care more about their appearance than young people in the US.

  This survey was held in 156 high schools in the four countries.More than 7,000 teenagers were   5   about their views on life and the world.South Koreans, at 83 per cent, cared most about their looks.They were   6   by the Chinese and Japanese, while US students showed the least interest in fashion at only 33 per cent.

  “The different results show   7   of cultural background(背景),”said Sun Yunxiao from the China Youth and Children Research Centre.He explained that in the US there are many different   8   of beauty, so teens are more   9   to be confident about their appearance.

  US teenagers’ high self-confidence is displayed(展示)in the   10  .About 85 per cent are happy with themselves.The percentage of self-confident Chinese students stands at only 30 per cent.

  What’s   11  , US students showed more individuality(个性), with 88 per cent   12   that“people should follow their own interests rather than   13   of others”.This is much   14   than South Korea’s 69 per cent, China’s 49 and Japan’s 48.

  Japanese students, at 52 per cent, are most dissatisfied with modern society.Chinese and Koreans follow at second and   15   most dissatisfied.

  “  16   to the survey, Chinese students are happy and disciplined(有纪律的).They have a strong wish to make a difference.  17   Chinese students need to be more independent and learn how to relax,”said Sun.

  The students have different   18   backgrounds.But home and places where friends gather are the favorite places all teens seek happiness.

  Exams and worries about life after graduation cause much   19   among most of the teens   20   for the survey.

In the old days, children were familiar with birth and death as part of life. Now this is perhaps the first generation of American youngsters who have never been close by during of the birth a baby and have never experienced the death of a family member.
  Nowadays when people grow old, we often send them to nursing homes. When they get sick, we send them to a hospital, where children are forbidden to visit patients— even when those patients are their parents. This deprives(剥夺)the dying patient of family members during the last few days of his life and it deprives the children of an experience of death, which is an important learning experience.
  Some of my colleagues and I once interviewed and followed about 500 in order to find out what they could teach us and how we could be of more benefit, not just to them but to the members of their families as well. We were most impressed by the fact that even those patients who were not told of their serious illness were quite aware of its potential outcome.
  It is important for family members, and doctors and nurses to understand these patients’ communication in order to truly understand their needs, fears and fantasies. Most of our patients welcomed another human being with whom they could talk openly, honestly, and frankly about their trouble. Many of them shared with us their reat need to be informed, to be kept up-to-date on their medical condition and to be told when the end was near. We found out that patients who had been dealt with openly and frankly were better able to deal with the coming of death and finally to reach a true stage of acceptance before death.
82.The elders of today's Americans________ .
  A. are often absent when a family member is born or dying
  B. usually see the birth or death of a family member  
C. are unfamiliar with birth and death
  D. have often experienced the fear of death as part of life
83.Children in America are deprived of the chance to________.
  A. visit a patient at hospital                                 B. visit their family members
  C. look after the patients                                              D. learn how to face death 
84.The need of a dying patient for people to accompany him shows________.
  A. his wish for communication with other people               
B. his fear of death
  C. his unwillingness to die                          
D. he feels very upset about his condition
85.It may be concluded from the passage that________.
  A. dying patients should be truthfully informed of their condition
  B. dying patients are afraid of being told of the coming of death
  C. most patients are unable to accept death until it can’t be avoided
D. dying patients are not likely to be informed about their condition
