     "It hurts me more than you. "and " This is for your own good. "-these are the statements my mother
used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin,clean my room,stay home and do homework.
      That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right
not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy for
us. They thought that it was all
right to be parents who took a let-alone policy.  We stopped making our children do homework.  We
gave them calculators,tumed on the television,left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.
     Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years,
are realizing we"ve made a terrible mistake.  One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her
students-" so passive"-and wonders what has happened.  Nothing is demanded of them.  She believes.
Television, says Klompus, contributes to children"s passivity (被动性) .  "We"re talking about a
generation of kids who"ve never been hurt or hungry.  They have learned somebody will always do it for
them. Instead of saying "go and look it up" ,you tell them the answer.  It takes greater energy to say no to
a kid. "
     Yes,it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It"s time for parents to end their vacation and come
back to work.
     It"s time to take the car away,to tum the TV off,to tell them it hurts you more than them but it"s for their own good. It"s time to start telling them no again.1. By "permissive period in education" the author means a time ________.       A. when children are allowed to do what they wish to
B. when everything can be taught at school
C. when every child can be educated
D. when chldren are permitted to receive education 2. The main idea of the passage is that _______ .

A. parents should leave their children alone
B. kids should have more activities at school
C. it"s time to be more strict with our kids
D. parents should always set a good example to their kids

完形填空。     There are more than forty universities in Britain-nearly twice as many as in 1960s. During the 1960s
eight completely new ones mere founded,and ten other new ones were created    1   converting old
colleges of technology into universities.  In the same period the    2 of students more than doubled,from
70,000 to    3     than 200,000.  By 1973 about 10% of men aged from eighteen   4   twenty-one were
in universities and about 5% of women.
      All the universities are private institutions. Each has its     5     goveming councils,   6   some local
businessmen and local politicians as   7   as a few academics (大学教师).  The state began to give grants
to them fifty years   8   , and by 1970 each university derived nearly all its    9 from state grants. Students
have t0     10    fees and living costs,but every student may receive from the local authority of the place
  11   he lives a personal grant which is enough to pay his full costs,including lodging and     12    unless his
parents are    13  .  Most   14   take jobs in the summer  15   about six weeks,but they do not normally do
outside     16     during the academic year. The Department of Education takes   17    for the payments
which cover the whole expenditure(费用) of the    18   , but it does not exercise direct control.  It can
have an important influence    19   new developments through its power to distribute funds,but it takes the
advice of the University Grants Committee,a body which is mainly     20    of academics.

      Twenty years ago,kids in school had never heard of the Internet.  Now, 1      1     you can"t find a
single person in your school who hasn"t at least heard of it.  In fact,many of us use it on a      2     basis
and even have access to it from our homes! The "net" in "intemet" should     3    network. A network is
two or more computers connected together so that information can.be shared,or sent from tree computer
to another.  The Intemet is a vast    4     for all types of infor- mation. You may enjoy using it to do
research for a school project,downloading your favorite songs or communicating with friends and family.
Information is accessed through web pages that companies,organizations and individuals create and post.
  It"s kind of like a giant bulletin board that the whole world uses ! But since anyone can put anything on
the Internet,you also have to be careful and use your best     5    and a little common sense.
      Just because you read something on a piece of paper someone sticks on a bulletin board,it doesn"t     6      it"s good information,or even     7 . So you have to be sure that whoever posted the
information knows what they"re talking about,    8 if you"re doing research! But what if you"re just
e-mailing people? You still have to be very careful. If you"ve never met the person that you"re
communicating with online,you could be on dangerous ground ! You should never give out any     9
   information to someone you don"t know,not even your name! And just like you can"t believe the
information on every website out there,you can"t rely on what strangers you "meet" on the Intemet tell you
either. Just as you could     10     things about yourself to tell someone,someone else could do the same
to you!

     What kind of home will we live in the future?   1   can be sure,but scientists are working    2   new ideas now.
      Some scientists are   3   about building whole cities under huge glass domes (圆顶).   4   , advanced
heating and cooling systems will be   5   to control the weather in the domes.   6  , there will never be any  7     or snow,and the temperature will always be     8    .
      Perhaps everyone willlive in vertical(垂直的) cities-high rises      9     are so large that they can
  10 all the necessities oflife. Since vertical cities will use   11 land than flat cities,and provide homes
   12   more people,it
will be practical for small countries that have    13    population.    14    idea that will be helpful to small
countries is the  15   city. Monaco has already built homes,stores,and offices   16  the water of the
Mediterranean Sea.
      There are some people who think that we will go back to   17   in caves.  18  the caves of the future
will be very different from the caves of the Stone Age.  Farms and parks will be on the land  19  the cave
city.  When people want to go to the country or to a park,a short ride in a    20 will take them there.

     Are you carrying too much on your back at school? Lots of kids at the same age are as you are.
     Not only are students in China     1    from this problem,but kids in the United States are     2    fed
up with(饱受……之苦) heavy school bags.
      Experts are starting to     3     that more and more young students are having back and neck problems
as a result of school bags     4    too heavy for them.
     "It"s hard for me to get up the     5     with my bag because it"s so heavy," said Rick Hammond,     6
ll-year-old student in the US.
      Rick is among the students who have      7     backpacks(背包) with two straps(带子) to carry them,     8     a number of other students choose rolling backpacks.
     But even with rolling backpacks,    9 up stairs and buses with them is     10     a problem for kids.
Many of them have hurt their knees,backs or necks because of heavy school bags.
      But how much is too   11 ? Experts say students should carry     12     more than 10 to 15 percent of
their own body weight.
      Scott Bautch,a Wisconsin     13     docotor,said kids under4th grade should     14     within 10 percent. But it"s also important that older kids don"t go     15    15 percent,because their bones are still growing.
     Bautch explained that there are other injuries caused by backpacks. "Kids are     16    their balance
and falling down with these backpacks,"he said.
      Parents and teachers are starting to tell the kids to only take     17     library books they will be reading
that night.Some teachers are using worksheets (作业纸) or    18    workbooks for students to take home.
      One of the best answers is,as some     19     themselves suggested, to have no homework    20    !
