Your friends might be in Australia or maybe just down the road, but they are all just a few clicks away. Life has    21    for millions of teenagers across the world who now make friends online. Whether you use chat rooms, QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are    22    of a virtual community.

“ I rarely talk with my parents or grandparents,    23     I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ,” said Fox’s Shadow, the online nickname used by a Senior 2 girl in China. “ Eighty per cent of my classmates use QQ after school.”

QQ is the biggest messaging service in China. A record 4 million people used it one Saturday night in October,     24      to Tencent, the company which developed QQ.

And Fox’s Shadow might well have been one of them. “ I log in on Friday nights, and Saturdays or Sundays when I feel     25    . I usually spend 10 hours chatting online every week,” she said. “ But I rarely talk with     26    , especially boys or men.”

Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online. “ You don’t know who you’re talking to. You should always be careful about who you trust online.”

Many people would like to meet offline when they feel they have got to     27    someone very well. Fox’s Shadow once met one of her online friends face to face. It was a girl who was a comic fan like     28      and they went to a comic show together.

However, not all teenagers have been so     29    . At the beginning of this year, a 17-year-old girl in Liaoning Province was raped after meeting a friend she had found on QQ. The criminal wasn’t caught until last month.

A 16-year-old Beijing boy, known online as Bart Simon, dislikes QQ users. “I used to chat on QQ, but I found that most people were talking nonsense.” he said. Now he chats online in English, using MSN. But he spends little chatting as he sees it as a waste of time and money. “ If you are really     30    to it, sometimes you just can’t concentrate in class.” He said.

How can we get rid of garbage? Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs?

These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that men might be able to solve both problems at the same time. They suggest using garbage as an energy source.

For a long time people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land. Now, empty land is scarce. But more and more garbage is produced each year. But garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuels. As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.

Burning garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings. In Paris, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the city's garbage each year. The amount of energy produced is about the same as the world produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil!

But there are problems in using garbage as a fuel. Garbage that burns easily, such as food scraps and paper, must be separated from metals, glass, and other materials that do not burn easily. This separation process is normally costly. Another problem is that burning garbage can pollute the air.

Our fossil fuel supplies are limited. Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs. This method could also reduce the amount of garbage piling up on the earth.

53. What two problems can be solved by burning garbage?

       A. The shortage of energy; Air pollution.

       B. The shortage of energy; the shortage of empty land for holding garbage.

       C. Air pollution; the shortage of empty land for holding garbage.

       D. Air pollution; the shortage of fossil fuel.

54.Which of the following is NOT a result of burning garbage?

       A. The heat produced is used to boil water.

       B. The steam produced is used to make electricity.

       C. The garbage burned is turned into fossil fuels.

       D. The steam produced is used to heat buildings.

55.According to the passage. Which of the following four groups of garbage is ready for burning?

       A. food scraps and metals                    B. paper and glass

       C. metals and glass                             D. food scraps and paper

56.What is the general tone of the passage?

A. optimistic                        B. indifferent                      C. advocating                D. anxious
