century disease,affects people from different ages.They surf the net,use email and speak in chat
rooms.They spend many hours on the computer,and it becomes a compulsive habit.They cannot
stop,and it affects their lives.
Ten years ago,no one thought that using computers could become compulsive behavior that
could affect the social and physical life of computer users.This obsessional behavior has
affected teenagers and college students.They are likely to log on computers and spend long
hours at different websites.
They become hooked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected
by this situation.They spend all free time surfing and don"t concentrate on homework,so this
addiction influences their grades and success at school.Because they can find everything on
the websites,they hang out there.Moreover,this addiction to websites influences their social life.
They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends.The relation with their
friends changes.The virtual life becomes more important than their real life.They have a new
language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society.
Because of the change in their behavior,they begin to isolate themselves from the society
and live with their virtual friends.They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they
have never met in their life.Although they feel confident on the computer,they are not confident
with real live friends they have known all their life.It is a problem for the future.This addictive
behavior is beginning to affect all the world.

education.One of those who contacted me to disagree with the idea was 17 year old Anirudh Mandagere.
He got 10 As at GCSE and is currently studying English,French,Math and History at a private school in
Manchester.Here is his response:
For me,the idea that all private schools should be banned is not only ridiculous and unrealistic,but goes
against the idea of liberty. We must have the freedom to choose between statefunded and privately
educated schools. If parents pay taxes, surely they should be able to choose whether they send their
children to a statefunded or a privatelyfunded school.
The economic impacts of abolishing private education are vast.Banning private schools would obviously
contribute to a great transfer to state schools. Many state schools are already overburdened；do they
really need more pupils?Abolishing private education would lead to higher taxes for taxpayers since more
money would be needed to educate the 7% who were previously private educated. In the times of
economic crisis,should the taxpayer need to fork out more money to pay for their education?There would
also be a great rise in unemployment of the staff who works at private schools.
It is noted that,in general,private schools have better grades at GCSE and A level than state schools.
Yet, why do people view this as a bad thing ? The higher private school grades eventually force the
government to endlessly improve state education so that the middle classes do not totally abandon state
education for private education.This competition creates reform and progress within state schools and
eventually promote them!If the private schools did not exist,where would be the impetus for state school
improvement?
Government should not simply ban a system which produces results.It should learn from it and use the
private education model as a basis for the state education model.Abolishing a successful system will not
help anybody,learning from a successful system will.
B．pay taxes for the promotion of private schools
C．choose the way their children receive education
D．advocate the competition between state schools and private ones
B．not cause the state schools to be overburdened
C．force the government to boost state education
D．lead to many people losing their jobs
B．prevention
C．participation
D．assessment
B．conduct better than all state ones
C．are better received by the public
D．are more competitive on the whole
B．Without the existence of private schools,state ones wouldn"t get improved much.
C．Private education is a good system to make students successful in life.
D．Private schools are supposed to be sponsored more than state ones.

million Michigan residents older than 16:They read below a sixthgrade level,which makes
it difficult to find jobs and to improve their lives.Among them,Amiya is one.
Amiya Olden remembers well the day she graduated from Denby High School.She
handed her diploma to her mother,who read it to her."Then when someone asked me to
read it,I could remember the things she read,and I knew what I had to say," recalled
Amiya Olden."When we would go out to restaurants with my aunts,and that"s when I

level；now at a fifthgrade level.
Olden now splits her days between her classes at ProLiteracy and the library,where
she checks out books and reads them.She says she hopes her improved reading skills
will help her find a good job.
And she has advice for others,who have trouble reading.
"Don"t give up on it," she said."Even though it can be challenging and you might get
frustrated sometimes,practice does help.If you really want to be able to go somewhere,
go out to a restaurant and you have to read signs and things like that,you want to know
what you want to eat and where you want to go...If you want to succeed in life and grow,
you have to read.More importantly,you have to feel confident that you can."

showing that almost one in five graduates in their late 20s now live with their parents.By
contrast,only one in eight university graduates had failed to fly the nest by the same age 20
years ago,research from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) shows.
It also found that grownup sons are twice as likely as their sisters to still be living with
their parents in their late 20s.
With nearly a quarter of men approaching 30 still living at home,the findings are bound
to lead to the claim of a "generation of mummy"s boys"．
Rising housing prices,increasing student debts and the effects of depression on the job
market have forced a wave of young people to move back into the family home at an age
when they would normally________.
Young professionals in their late 20s or early 30s have been called the "boomerang
generation" because of the trend toward returning to the family home.
Recent research has suggested that young people in Britain are twice likely to choose to
live with their parents in their late 20s than their counterparts elsewhere in Europe.

people_facing_dark_future_than_simply_a_desire_to_save_money.
While the percentage of those of university or college age moving out from the family
home has continued to rise in the last 20 years,among those in their mid and late 20s the
trend has reversed.
Overall 1.7 million people aged from 22 to 29 now share a roof with their parents,including
more than 760,000 in their late 20s,the ONS figures suggest.

As computers become all the morepopular in China, Chinese people areincreasingly
relying on computer keyboardsto input Chinese characters. But if they usethe computer
too much, they may end up
forgetting the exact strokes(笔画) of each Chinese characterwhen writing on paper. Experts
suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.
Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing,students start using a computer
as early as primary school.And computer dependence is more wide-spread among
university students. Almost all their assignments and essaysare typed on a computer.
All the students interviewed say they usually use acomputer.
It"s faster and easier to correct if using a computer. Andthat"s why computers are
being applied more and more oftento modern education. But when people are taking
stock incomputers increasingly, problems appear. "
When I"m writing with a pen, 1 find I often can"tremember how to write a character,
though I feel I"mfamiliar with it. "
"I"m not in the mood to write when faced with a penand paper. "
Many students don"t feel this is something to worryabout. Now that it"s more convenient
and efficient to writeon a computer, why bother to handwrite? Many educators think
differently. Shi Liwei, theheadmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said"Chinese
characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic(审美的 )value.But those character styped
with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artisticbeauty of the
characters is lost. And handwriting containsthe writer"s emotion. Through one"s handwriting,
peoplecan get to know one"s thinking and personality. Beautifulwriting will give people a better
first impression of them. "
To encourage students to handwrite more, manyprimary schools in Beijing have made
writing classescompulsory(必修的 ) and in univery,ities,some professors areasking students
to turn in their homework and essayswritten by hand.
