     Games originally are entertainment. Contemporary games are very realistic and for this reason they are
a source of great experience for the player and develop the imagination. Games are entertainment and even
more than that. The statistics (統(tǒng)計) of the New York University led by Green claim that the player
preferring active games get improvement of some types of brain activity. In particular, game players deal
with problems of simultaneously (同時地) tracking several moving objects at the average level of 30%
better than people who do not play active computer video games. The "gaming" violent experience may not
be the cause of violent behavior in reality. None of the playing experience will become the priority in making
important decisions concerning problems in real life. A game is an abstraction (虛擬物). A player gets
abstract tasks and acts according to abstract rules.
     Games are also the possibility to be however a person wants to be and to rest from the outside world for
some time. But what if a person gets so much excited with the game scenes that he becomes violent in reality?
Then, it proves that the games cause people to become violent in reality. But a psychologically healthy person
will never confuse these two different worlds. A game is a virtual world with visual images very similar to
human. These images represent by themselves nothing but playing obstacles (障礙). A game may potentially
give the opportunity to "destroy the obstacles" that may not be destroyed according to the rules but it is more
about personal choice whether to do it or not. This leads us to the conclusion that violence is not a
consequence but the cause. People who are originally trended to violence may get into a temper by games and
perform violence in the "real world". But in this case violence in games is a simple justification (理由) of the
violent nature of the player.
1. The passage is _____.
[     ]
A. a story
B. a descriptive writing
C. an argumentative writing
D. a scientific essay
2. In the first paragraph the author used the statistics to prove that _____.
[     ]

C. games can cause violent behavior
D. games are more than entertainment
3. What is the author's attitude towards the "computer games"?
[     ]
A. "Violent games" can lead to the performance of violence in the real world
B. Violence is not a consequence of the "computer games" but the cause
C. Games are just entertainment and nothing more.
D. The virtual world and the real world are just the same.

  A 17-year-old boy, caught sending text messages in class, was recently sent to the vice principal's office at Millwood High School in Halifax, Nova Scotia.The vice principal, Steve Gallagher, told the boy he needed to focus on the teacher, not his cellphone.The boy listened politely and nodded, and that's when Mr.Gallagher noticed the student's fingers moving on his lap.He was texting while being scolded for texting.“It was a subconscious act,”says Mr.Gallagher, who took the phone away.“Young people today are connected socially from the moment they open their eyes in the morning until they close their eyes at night.It's compulsive.”

  A study this year by psychology students at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Ga., found that the more time young people spend on Facebook, the more likely they are to have lower grades and weaker study habits.Heavy Facebook users show signs of being more sociable, but they are also more likely to be anxious, hostile or depressed.(Doctors, meanwhile, are now blaming addictions to ‘night texting' for disturbing the sleep patterns of teens.)

  Almost a quarter of today's teens check Facebook more than 10 times a day, according to a 2009 survey by Common Sense Media, a nonprofit group that monitors media's impact on families.Will these young people get rid of this habit once they enter the work force, or will employers come to see texting and ‘social-network checking' as accepted parts of the workday?

  Think back.When today's older workers were in their 20s, they might have taken a break on the job to call friends and make after-work plans.In those earlier eras, companies discouraged non-business-related calls, and someone who made personal calls all day risked being fired.It was impossible to imagine the constant back-and-forth texting that defines interactions among young people today.

  Educators are also being asked by parents, students and educational strategists to reconsider their rules.“In past generations, students got in trouble for passing notes in class.Now students are adept at texting with their phones still in their pockets,”says 40-year-old Mr.Gallagher, the vice principal,“and they're able to communicate with someone one floor down and three rows over.Students are just fundamentally different today.They will take suspensions rather than give up their phones.”

The underlined word“a subconscious act”refers to an act ________.

[  ]

A.

on purpose

B.

without realization

C.

in secret

D.

with care

(2)

B.

have high spirits and positive attitudes towards their life and work

have been influenced mentally in the aspects of behaviors and habits

(3)

第一節(jié):閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A,B,C和D)中,選出最佳選項。
Trouve sat up on its back legs arid growled(吼叫)the words “How are you, Grandmama?” The audience roared with laughter and clapped. Twenty-year-old Aleck gave the dog a morsel(一口)of food. His hard wok paid off. His dog could talk!
Aleck was fascinated with the different sounds of people’s speech. His father taught students who had a speech problem to improve their speech. Aleck paid close attention. Could an animal form sounds into words, too? He decided to experiment with Trouve, the family dog.
The easy part was teaching Trouve to growl whenever Aleck wanted. The little dog growled for a morsel of food.
Next Aleck moved the dog’s “l(fā)ips’ as it growled. It sounded like “ma ma ma.” Trouve learned quickly to stop the growling just as Aleck’s hand moved away. They practiced and practiced until the dog said “ma ma” perfectly.
Soon Aleck discovered more. If he pushed gently under the dog’s jawbone(下顎骨), it made the “ga” sound. If he pushed once and moved the dog’s lips twice, he could make the dog say, “ga ma ma”. With even more practice, it sounded like “grandmama.” Whenever Trouve said “grandmam,” Aleck gave the god two treats, so Trouve loved the lessons.
Aleck tried to teach his dog to move its tongue. So that Trouve could say more words. That didn’t work, but Aleck didn’t give up.
After many hours of practice, Trouve could say, “Ow ah oo ga-ma-ma?” This sounded just like “How are you, Grandmama?”
Friends and neighbors traveled to see young Aleck and his amazing talking dog. Rumors spread that the dog could speak by itself, which wasn’t true. No matter how much Aleck tried, the dog was never able to move its lips without help.
Aleck’s full name was Alexander Graham Bell. He wanted to know more about the world all his life. He had many ideas. Some worked; others didn’t. But he kept trying—always learning; One of his inventions was something called the telephone.
41.Which of the following is TRUE of Aleck?
A.His father had an influence on him.      
B.He had a talent for giving speeches.
C.He taught Trouve to talk in honor of his grandmother.
D.He carried out many experiments to improve people’s speech.
42.Trouve grew fond of practicing talking because         .
A.it liked being together with Aleck  B.it was given some food for that
