  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?

  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 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)

have been influenced mentally in the aspects of behaviors and habits

D.

(3)

第二部分:阅读理解(共25题,第一节每题2分,第二节每题1分)
第一节:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A,B,C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
Trouve sat up on its back legs arid growled(吼叫)the words “How are you, Grandmama?” The audience roared with laughter and clapped. Twenty-year-old Aleck gave the dog a morsel(一口)of food. His hard wok paid off. His dog could talk!
Aleck was fascinated with the different sounds of people’s speech. His father taught students who had a speech problem to improve their speech. Aleck paid close attention. Could an animal form sounds into words, too? He decided to experiment with Trouve, the family dog.
The easy part was teaching Trouve to growl whenever Aleck wanted. The little dog growled for a morsel of food.
Next Aleck moved the dog’s “lips’ as it growled. It sounded like “ma ma ma.” Trouve learned quickly to stop the growling just as Aleck’s hand moved away. They practiced and practiced until the dog said “ma ma” perfectly.
Soon Aleck discovered more. If he pushed gently under the dog’s jawbone(下颚骨), it made the “ga” sound. If he pushed once and moved the dog’s lips twice, he could make the dog say, “ga ma ma”. With even more practice, it sounded like “grandmama.” Whenever Trouve said “grandmam,” Aleck gave the god two treats, so Trouve loved the lessons.
Aleck tried to teach his dog to move its tongue. So that Trouve could say more words. That didn’t work, but Aleck didn’t give up.
After many hours of practice, Trouve could say, “Ow ah oo ga-ma-ma?” This sounded just like “How are you, Grandmama?”
Friends and neighbors traveled to see young Aleck and his amazing talking dog. Rumors spread that the dog could speak by itself, which wasn’t true. No matter how much Aleck tried, the dog was never able to move its lips without help.
Aleck’s full name was Alexander Graham Bell. He wanted to know more about the world all his life. He had many ideas. Some worked; others didn’t. But he kept trying—always learning; One of his inventions was something called the telephone.
41.Which of the following is TRUE of Aleck?
A.His father had an influence on him.      
B.He had a talent for giving speeches.
C.He taught Trouve to talk in honor of his grandmother.
D.He carried out many experiments to improve people’s speech.
42.Trouve grew fond of practicing talking because         .
A.it liked being together with Aleck  B.it was given some food for that
C.it would like to develop its potential      D.Aleck treated it like one of the family
43.Which of the following words can best describe Aleck?
A.Humorous.      B.Naughty.  C.Knowledgeable.       D.Curious.
44.What contributes most to Aleck’s success in teaching the dog to talk?
