High school students have always spread gossip(傳言) in the halls, on the walls and on the phone. Now it’s on the Internet, too. On various message boards, kids write about whom they hate, whom they think have fallen in love with each other and record other often hurtful things that may or may not be true.

Sixteen- year-old Jessica remembers once when some kids at her school wrote cruel things about her on the web. “ They were just making fun of me,” she says. They said she’s really ugly, she’s this, she’s that, blah-blah-blah.

 Jessica’s 11-year-old sister, Emma, admits she’s used the web to write bad things about another girl, though she regrets it now. “After a while, you may feel like, how could I have been so mean? Or, why did I do that?” she says.

Experts say gossip on the Inernet can be more harmful than the old fashioned kind. It lasts longer and is taken more seriously. And, unlike ugly words on the bathroom wall, there’s no way to get rid of it.

If your kids are victims of online gossip, Dr. Commanday suggests putting the gossip into perspective(正確看待). “Point out to them how what’s being said on the screen differs from what everyone knows about you as a person,” Dr. Commanday says.

You can also try what worked for Emma: Keep your kids off the offensive website! “ When she was using it all the time, her name was there all the time. People were writing things about her,” explains Patti Thrift, Emma’s mother, “ Since she has no longer had access to that, she’ s no longer a topic of conversation.”

Experts say that any time your child is on the Internet , you should know what he or she is doing there. Online gossip is just another reason why.

52.  From the examples of Jessica and her sister, we can learn that ________.

A. ugly girls like to spread gossip online  

B. ugly girls easily become victims of online gossip

C. gossip-makers can regret what they do 

D. online gossip is mailny some jokes on others

53.  According to the passage, why is online gossip more hurtful?

A. It can not be removed.              B. It is written words. 

C. It is much uglier.                  D. It is easier to believe.

54.  If you are a victim of online gossip, you’d better_______

A. ask your parents to stop it                B. try to stay away from there 

C. make it known to the police              D. speak ill of the gossip-maker

55.  The purpose of the passage is to _____

A. introduce different kinds of hurt students might meet with

B. advise students to keep away from the Internet

C. list the bad influence gossip on the Internet brings

D. give some tips on how to prevent hurt of gossip on the Internet

56.  The passage is mainly written for____

A. experts               B teachers               C. parents               D. students

Like many  41  parents ,my parents also let me and my brothers do things about which they  42  a great deal .When I was sixteen ,for example ,after I finished high school and before I entered university ,I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around  43  .My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great  44  for me .In the end , my father won the  45  on the condition that I limited my traveling to France ,my mother’s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins  46  through the country who could  47  shelter and help if I needed them .

When I began my high school years, I was quite interested in biology. I read lots of books of my father’s about animals, and I was   36   much educated about such matters as a 16-year-old could be.

We’ve heard it before - we’ve heard it on the news, from teachers, from parents -children and teenagers today are growing up too fast. There are not too many people that will   _31  with that statement. Teenagers are faced with serious problems and decisions at an early   _32 . In fact most teenagers’ daily schedules(日程表)are as  33  as those of an adult’s.
I have been working since I was thirteen, and always in  34  in which I was working with adults. I have had to learn to think and  35  like an adult to be taken seriously.

I hadn’t  48  a basketball in five years.
We proceeded to shoot hoops for about 5 minutes. Both of us were terribly bad at it, but we spent the whole time  49  like children. Then I realized something: I am still a child. Oh, the law says I’m an adult. But, we are still really and truly children. We all need to have  50_   once in a while.

Despite (盡管) working 12 hours every day, Dad never once  46  driving me to school.
After months of  47 , I was facing the final exam. I was so  48 . On the day of the final, my dad hugged me and said, “Luke,  49  yourself.

Even now, whenever I  53  that a task is too much for me, I think back to that exam. No matter how  54  something is, if you’re willing to work, you can succeed. I’m forever  55  to Dad for that lesson.

Rowena and Billy Wrangler are model high school students. They study hard and do extremely well on achievement tests. And next year,Rowena will be attending Harvard University.Billy,her younger brother,hopes to go to Cornell.What makes Rowena and Billy different from most students is that they don't go to school.In fact,they've never been to school.Since kindergarten,they've studied at home.Like many of more than one million people who receive home schooling in the United States, they feel as if they've gotten a good education.
The home-schooling trend began in the U.S.in the 1980s with parents keeping their children out of public schools so they could provide religious education at home. Today,as the home-schooling trend continues to grow,parents are more likely to consider home schooling as an option because they believe schools don't do a very good job of teaching and are occasionally dangerous places.But can parents really do a better job?
The answer in many cases is yes.In many studies,students taught at home ranked average or above average when compared to students who went to public schools.More importantly,these students were often more self-directed and have a greater depth of knowledge.They were well prepared for academic challenges.
One such student,Robert Conrad, now a sophomore at university, claims he really learned how to study and schedule his time during his eight years of home schooling.Still, not every student is as successful as Robert.
“For every home-schooling success story,there are an equal number of failures.”states Henry Lipscomb,an educational researcher.“There are just so many disadvantages that students taught at home have to overcome.” For example,they have fewer chances to get in touch with others of their own age.Consequently,they sometimes lack the usual social skills.“No matter what,though,”states Lipscomb,“home-schooling is a growing trend.I think we'll be seeing more and more of this.”
【小題1】Compared with other students, Rowena and Billy are most different in the fact that ___________.

A.they preferred to teach themselves
B.they do extremely well on achievement tests
C.they don't go to school as other teenagers
D.they feel they have gotten a good education
【小題2】According to the article, what is NOT the advantage of being educated at home?
A.Home is a safer place for children.
B.Students taught at home are more self-directed.
C.Students taught at home have a greater depth of knowledge.
D.Students taught at home can go to good universities.
【小題3】The writer thinks __________ .
A.parents can do a better job than schools
B.home-schooling will be more and more useful
C.home-schooling is good in some aspects
D.students taught at home make greater achievements
【小題4】The best title of this text might be ________ .
A.Home-schooling:A Growing Trend
B.Home-schooling:A Better Choice
C.Home-schooling:A Way to Success
D.Home-schooling:A New Method of Education
