4.Technological change is everywhere and affects every aspect of life,mostly for the better.However,social changes brought about by new technology are often mistaken for a change in attitudes.
An example at hand is the involvement of parents in the lives of their children who are attending college.Surveys on this topic suggest that parents today continue to be"very"or"somewhat"overly-protective even after their children move into college dormitories.The same surveys also indicate that the rate of parental involvement is greater today than it was a generation ago.This is usually interpreted as a sign that Today's parents are trying to manage their children's lives past the point where this behavior is appropriate.
However,greater parental involvement does not indicate that parents are failing to let go of their"adult"children.
In the context of this discussion,it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents'involvement with their grown children.If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college-age children frequently,would this have been possible?Probably not.On the other hand,does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the impulse to do so wasn't present a generation ago?Many studies show that older parents--today's grandparents-would have called their children more often if the means and cost of doing so had not been a barrier.
Furthermore,studies show that finances are the most frequent subject of communication between parents and their college children.The fact that college students are financially dependent on their parents is nothing new; nor are requests for more money to be sent from home.This phenomenon is neither good nor bad; it is a fact of college life,today and in the past.
Thanks to the advanced technology,we live in an age of bettered communication.This has many implications well beyond the role that parents seem to play in the lives of their children who have left for college.But it is useful to bear in mind that all such changes come from the technology and not some imagined desire by parents to keep their children under their wings.

66.The surveys inform us ofD.
A.the conditions of college dormitories
B.the sign of parent's management in their own behaviors
C.the development of communication technology
D.the parents'over-protection of their college children
67.Which of the following statement does the author most probably agree with?A
A.Technology explains greater parental involvement with their children.
B.Parents'changed attitudes lead to college children's delayed independence.
C.Parents today are less protective than those in the past.
D.The disadvantages of new technology outweigh its advantages.
68.What is the meaning of the word"impulse"in this passage?C
A.Desperation.B.Admiration.C.Urge.D.Depression.
69.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?B
A.Dependence or Independence.
B.Technology or Attitude.
C.Family Influence or Social Changes.
D.College Management or Communication Advancement.

分析 本文属于记叙文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们介绍并讨论了技术的发展,以及父母对成年孩子的态度的改变,我们如今生活在通信时代,因此与父母的交流是必要的.

解答 66.D  细节理解题,根据第二段"Surveys (调查) on this topic suggests that parents today continue to be"very"or"somewhat"overly-protective even after their children move into college"可知在技术改变对态度上影响的调查表明今天的父母在他们的孩子进入大学之后仍然非常或是有些过度保护他们,故选D.
67.A  推理判断题.根据第四段"In the context (背景) of this discussion,it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents'involvement with their grown children.If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college-age children frequently,"可知父母参与他们成年孩子的生活改变的原因,是因为技术的进步让父母更容易接触到他们,故选A.
68.C  词义猜测题,根据第四段On the other hand,does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the impulse to do so wasn't present a generation ago?可知另一方面频繁的通信可能会意味着今天的冲动,故选C.
69.B  主旨大意题,通读全文可知文章主要是讨论技术的发展,以及父母对成年孩子的态度的改变,故选B.

点评 考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力.做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确选择.在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.

As we know,when senior students finish their school,most of their reference books are thrown away,which are still in good conditions.What a great waste it is!
I suggested that we should recycle all this books.On the one hand,recycling them can save a lot of natural resources,which are used to make textbooks.On the other hand,the notes on the books are helpful to whoever need them.
In fact,recycling textbooks has been increasing popular in such countries as America and Australia.We should learn from them,but make every effort to build energy-saving society.In my opinion,it is of many benefit both to our present and to our future.

13.The World Health Organization (WHO) said that processed meat may be carcipogenic(致癌).Do you still dare eat cancer-linked processed meat?Here are some comments on the website.
Bill (Australia) I'd rather live a short,pleasant life than a long,unhappy one,denying(拒绝给予) myself tasty food just because some experts say it's not healthy.We should all enjoy the one life we have---if I had listened to every piece of health advice I would never go anywhere,eat anything or enjoy life in any way.So,I won't change my habit.I am going to have bacon sandwich,glass of wine,burger,can of coke whenever I fell like it.
Tim (America) Is meat really as bad as smoking:I don't think so.According to the WHO 34,000people die worldwide per year because they eat processed meat.In 2012,8.2million people died of cancer worldwide.That means if you eat a lot of processed meat you have a chance of being among the 0.41percent of people dying of cancer because of processed meat.I'll take the chance.
Helen (Switzerland) The WHO doesn't say that just one bite of meat causes cancer,it is rather saying that people should vary their diet.People who eat more meat often have other unhealthy habits.They usually eat fewer fruits and vegetables and they also often exercise less.
Van (China) Perhaps this report will make people consider becoming vegetarians ( 素食者).So for your health,the environment and future generations,it is not difficult; it just needs a change of attitude.There is a vast variety of other delicious food available to enjoy.
32.What if Bill has to change his habit?A
A.He'll feel unhappy.
B.He'll live a pleasant life.
C.He'll go on a diet.
D.He'll become a vegetarian.
33.What does Tim think about eating processed meat?B
A.Too risky.
B.Fairly safe.
C.Popular worldwide.
D.Very unhealthy.
34.What may be Helen a response to WHO's warning?C
A.Caring little about it.
B.Eating whatever she likes.
C.Varying the diet and doing exercise.
D.Taking a diet without meat.
35.Who have the most similar viewpoints?A
A.Bill and Tim.
B.Tim and Helen.
C.Helen and Van.
D.Bill and Van.
