John was a good student but he didn't respect others. One day, his mother gave him a drum as a birthday gift. He often went around the classroom playing his drum. When others asked him to keep quiet or play somewhere else, John refused.

John's classmates couldn't bear the noisy drum, so they stopped playing with him. Peter, one of his classmates invented special earplugs which allowed people to hear normal sounds, but stopped the bad ones. John got very angry with Peter. He even had a big fight with Peter.

A few days later, a clock was put into the classroom, just next to the desk of John. The clock was making the noise like “Tick tock, tick tock.” John couldn't concentrate on(專注于……)his study at all. However, the others, with their special earplugs, were OK. Soon John started to realize how much he had disturbed(打擾) his classmates with the drum, and how silly it had been to fight with Peter. In order to change the situation, John decided to say sorry to his classmates. What's more, he no longer played his drum in the classroom. Seeing John's great changes, his classmates finally forgave(原諒) him and decided to play with him again.

From then on, John changed a lot and got along well with his classmates.

Being able to multitask-- doing several things at the same time--is considered a welcome skill by most people. But if we consider the situation of the young people aged from eight to eighteen, we should think again.

What we often see nowadays is that young peoplejugglea larger number of electronic products as they study. While working, they also surf on the Internet, send out emails, answer the telephone and listen to music on their iPods. In a sense, they are spending a large amount of time in fruitless efforts as they multitask.

Multitasking is even changing the relationship between family members. As young people give so much attention to their own worlds, they seem to have no time to spend with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house, nor can they eat at the family table.

Multitasking also has an effect on young people's performance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the effects of modern gadgets (器具) on their performance of tasks, many young people gave a positive (肯定的) answer. However, the response from the worlds of education and business was not quite as positive. Educators feel that multitasking by children has a serious effect on later development of study skills. They believe that many college students now need help to improve their study skills. Similarly, employers (雇主) feel that young people entering the job market need to be taught all over again, as modern gadgets have made it unnecessary for them to learn special skills to do their work.

1.What does the underlined word "juggle" most probably mean?

A.Want to buy.

A.family members do not greet each other

3.What's the main idea of the last paragraph?

A.Young people must learn skills for future jobs.

B.Young people benefit (獲益) a lot from modern gadgets.

C.Multitasking is an important skill to young people.

D.Multitasking influences young people's development seriously.

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Young people think multitasking is good for their study and work.

B.Employers consider it unnecessary for young people to be taught all over again.

C.Educators feel that young people don't need to improve their study skills.

D.People from the world of education believe multitasking has a good effect on children's later study skills.

5.The author develops (闡述) the passage mainly by ________.

You often focus on building relationships with others, but you forget the first step: being a friend of yourself. How can you have good relationships with others if you don't even have a good relationship with yourself?

Here are some tips for you to be a friend of yourself.

1.

It's true that you are not perfect, but neither is everybody else. It's normal to make mistakes, so do yourself a favor by stopping feeling angry with yourself.

2.

There are some things you cannot change, such as your background and your past. So learn to say yes to them, smile and move on.

3.

Instead of focusing on your weakness, focus on your strength. Find out your strengths and build your life around them.

4.

The way you examine your success is not by looking at others. Your own success is decided by your own life goal. So it is useless to look at and focus on others’ life.

5.

You don't like it if others are not honest with you, right? So you won't like yourself if you know you lie to yourself. What you need to bear in mind is that don't lie to yourself. Be honest!

Headings:

A. Focus on your strength

B. Stop focusing on others' life

C. Stop feel sorry for yourself

D. Always be true to yourself

E. Accept things you can't change
