　　Most parents love the Internet and want their kids to use it．But a new survey in America finds almost as many also fear the online world－especially social networking sites such as My Space－and worry their kids will get in trouble with people they meet．

　　“The parents see the web's amazing potential, and they know their kids have to be there,”says James Steyer, CEO of Common Sense Media, which gives out results from a survey that looked into parents'attitudes toward the Internet．

　　The study was conducted online May 5－10 by Insight Research Group．It says 80％ of parents are concerned about kids meeting bad people online．

　　That's because young people who largely have grown up with the Net think of it as a social outlet, say the researchers．To young people, the benefits of giving out some personal information to reach out to friends outweigh the risks．And, the study shows they are so comfortable with the medium that 78％ have a personal website or blog．

　　Parents also recognize the importance of the Internet．The survey shows 90％ think the Net helps their children explore their passions, and 77％ think the Internet is one of the most valuable education tools teens have．But 88％ think it's important to know what ________．Findings suggest both parents and teens need more education about using online media, Steyer says．

　　Internet safety has become an increasing concern for parents in America．Organizations like the non-profit Common Sense have been trying to reach and help parents pay attention to the problem．

　　According to a weather expert's prediction, the atmosphere will be 3℃ warmer in the year 2050 than it is today, if man continues to burn fuels at the present rate．If this warming up took place, the ice caps in the poles would begin to melt, thus raising sea level several meters and severely flooding coastal cities．

　　In the past, concern about a man-made warming of the earth has concentrated on the Arctic because the Antarctic is much colder and has a much thicker ice sheet．But the weather experts are now paying more attention to West Antarctic．It may be affected by only a few degrees of warming．

　　Satellite pictures show that large areas of Antarctic ice are already disappearing．The evidence available suggests that a warming has taken place．This fits the theory that carbon dioxide warms the earth．

　　However, most of the fuel is burnt in the northern hemisphere, where temperatures seem to be falling．Scientists conclude, therefore, that up to now natural influences on the weather have exceeded those caused by man．The question is：Which natural cause has most effect on the weather?

　　One possibility is ________．Astronomers at one research station have studied the hot spots and“cold”spots on the sun．As the sun rotates(旋转)，it presents hotter or“colder”faces to the earth, and different aspects to different parts of the earth．This seems to have a considerable effect on the distribution of the earth's atmospheric pressure, and consequently on wind circulation．The sun is also variable over a long term：its heat output goes up and down in cycles, the latest trend being downward．

　　“Should there be separate classes for boys and girls?It might be a wise idea, because it is difficult to satisfy all tastes,”researchers at Leeds University in the UK last week said．

　　According to their report, in Britain, boys want science lessons to be about weapons of mass destruction and the effects of chemical weapons, while girls prefer to learn how to keep fit or the meanings of their dreams．

　　The study among 15-year-olds aimed to discover how science might be made more popular．The researchers, who contracted 1,200 English students, say“most did not like science as much as other subjects．”

　　The difference in results has curriculum(课程)planners considering separate classes for each sex．“The responses show a strong interest among boys in destructive technologies,”say the researchers．“while girls, by contrast, ________ their own bodies．They want to know how to deal with eating disorders, and they are interested in how to beat cancer and how to keep fit．”The differences make teaching a mixed-gender class a very difficult job．

　　There was, though, agreement on what boys and girl least want to learn．Both sexes were bored by the thought of studying the benefits and possible dangers of modern farming methods．Neither did they want to study“famous scientists and their lives”．

　　A common concern we often hear with regard to single children is whether one child necessarily means a lonely child．Many single-child parents feel a dilemma associated with their decision to have only one child．There are no other children in the family for the child to associate with, and this may lead to the child feeling lonely at times, especially during vacations．

　　Another common argument against having just one child is that an only child may be more spoiled than one with brothers or sisters．Many people believe that a single will not have learned to negotiate with others, and respect the give-and-take involved in many relationships．Some think this may leave the child less able to interact well with people his or her own age than one who has been raised with brothers or sisters．

　　However, for some single-child parents, particularly those with busy careers, the pressures of giving time and energy to a second child can seem too great, resulting in them electing to have no more children．For other parents, the financial burden of having a second child may be the prime consideration．Still others believe that, ________, the parents can give, and the child can receive, more quality time and attention．This often leads to increased self-respect which, combined with increased independence, can lead to the child being more confident．
