This report presents facts of home computer used by a group of young people. It is a common belief that teenagers today know about  1  and are familiar  2  using them in all their lives. We decided to try to  3  if this was true.

  We questioned thirty people between 14 and 18. All the teenagers we  4  said they had computers at home. We asked them how much time they spent on their computers in an average week,  5  we were most interested in 6  they used their computers  7 .

   The average time  8  on a computer in a week was about 12 hours, with the highest user average 32 hours and the lowest user  9  5 hours. There was  10  important different between boys and girls.

All of the people questioned said they regularly used the computer to  11  games. Fourteen told us they did some word-progressing at home, but not very much. Only two said that computers  12  them with their studies,  13 eight people told us they kept address and telephone numbers on their computers  14  used them writing diaries. Only three people said they were learning to program computers. But  15  of the people used their computers for  16  purpose.

The results make it known that average computer use is quite high  17  teenagers. They also show quite clearly that computers are seen by most young people  18  little more than game machine. The only important uses are for word-procession and organizing address lists. It  19  to us that, although computers are popular with British youths, they have not  20  become useful tools in their daily life.

Do you want to live another 100 years or more? Some experts say that scientific advances will one day enable humans to last tens of years beyond what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span. "I think we are knocking at the door of immortality (永生),' said Michael Zey, a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future. "I think by 2075 we will see it and that's a conservative estimate (保守的估计)."

At the conference in San Francisco, Donald Louria, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology (纳米技术) make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what has been possible in the past. "There is a great push so that people can live from I20 to 180 years," he said． "Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years."

However, many scientists who specialize in ageing are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last past about 120 years. Even with healthier lifestyles and less disease, they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans to death.

Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live. "It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know; could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life?" said Leonard Poon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Centre. "At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all."

1．By saying "we are knocking at the door of immortality", Michael Zey means _______.
  A．they believe that there is no limit of living
  B．they are sure to find the truth about long living
  C．they have got some ideas about living forever
  D．they are able to make people live past the present life span
2．Donald Louria’s attitude towards long living is that _______.
  A．people can live from 120 to 180
  B．it is still doubtful how long humans can live
  C．the human body is designed to last past about 120 years
  D．it is possible for humans to live longer in the future
3．The underlined "it" (paragraph 4) refers to ________.
  A．a great push
  B．the idea of living beyond the present life span
  C．the idea of living from 200 to 300 years
  D．the conservative estimate
4．What would be the best title for this text?
  A．Living Longer or Not

B. Science, Technology and Long Living
  C．No Limit for Human Life

D．Healthy Lifestyle and Long Living

 

   300 American students are growing up in the middle of the windy English countryside. Their parents work for the US Government based abroad. They attend an American school in a small All-American community of government employees. There are shops selling American products, sports facilities and a bowling hall, but somehow the students must adapt themselves to living away from everything they knew as children. The situation is similar to that of the Chinese students who leave home to study in another country.

Scott Lovelady has lived on the US base in Britain for nearly nine years. “I feel deprived (失落) in Britain. Before coming here I couldn’t imagine a town without 30 fast-food places and giant shopping mall.” He said. However, others see advantages of studying in a foreign country. Many of the students leave the base at 18 and go back to America for university. “Living in a different culture helps you adapt more quickly in your first few weeks at a university when you don’t know anyone and everything is new,” said one of them. “Living in an entirely new place can make you a more interesting person as you have more to offer in conversations,” said Seth Romero, another high school student on the base. Students who mix with local people often settle into their new home better, according to Barbara Jordan, a teacher at the school. “ If you are open to new experiences, you could well have the best time of your life,” she said.

Angela Green, a student also from the base, offered some advice to Chinese students going to a foreign school for the first time: “ Your friends and family are only one telephone call away. If you feel sad at any time you must remember that you can go home at any time. Living in a different place is not a jail sentence, though it may seem so at times. You will enjoy yourself soon. You may even prefer it to home.”

   A. Seth Romero            B. Angela Green
