Of all the websites，one that has attracted attention recently is myspace.com．Most of this attention has come from the media and tells every reason why the website should be shut down．The threat of internet predators（窃掠者）is indeed a tough reality，but shutting down the site is not the answer．If myspace.com were shut down，another site would quickly take its place．Therefore，the right way is to teach teens how to use the site safely and educate them about who may be predators and how to avoid them.
The key to staying safe on the Internet is to make sure that your profile（个人资料）is secure．The simplest way is to change the privacy setting on your profile to “private”, which protects your information so that only the people on your friend list can view it．Although this is effective，it is not perfect．Predators can find ways to view your profile if they really want to，whether through hacking in or figuring out their way onto your friend list．Thus，you should never post too much personal information．Some people actually post their home and school addresses，date of birth，and other personal information, often letting predators know exactly where they will be and when．The most information that is safe is your first name and province．Anything more is basically inviting a predator into your life.
Another big issue is photos. I suggest completely skipping photos and never posting a photo of a friend online without asking permission．
Most importantly, never，under any circumstances，agree to a real-life meeting with anyone you meet online．No matter how well you think you know this person, there are no guarantees that they have told the truth．But you could feel free to chat with people you meet on the site, but just remember that not everyone is who they say they are．Hopefully，the next time you edit your profile，you’ll be more informed about the dangers of internet predators and take the steps to defend yourself.
50．Kids can avoid web predators successfully by_________.
A．attracting more public attention
B．shutting down the website “myspace . com”
C．showing the kids ways to try other sites
D．recognizing and getting away from them
51．The safest basic personal information that you can share online is_________.
A．your home address and birthday B．school address and your first name
C．your first name and province D．your province and cell phone number
52．We can learn from the passage that_____.
A．not everybody you meet on line is honest and reliable
B．it is not acceptable to post a photo of a friend on line
C．it is not safe by chatting with grown-ups on the website
D．only you and your friends can view your personal profile
53．What could be the best title of this passage?
A．Personal Safety B．Web Safety for teens

In this age of cell phones, text messages and computer keyboards, one Scottish school has returned to basics．It"s teaching youngsters the ignored art of writing with a fountain pen．There is no clicking of keyboards in most classrooms at the Mary Erskine and Stewart"s Melville Junior School, although there is a full range of facilities （设施）for computer lessons and technology isn" t being ignored．The private school" s headmaster believes the old-fashioned pens have helped strengthen the academic （学术的） performance and self-esteem （自尊）of his 1,200 pupils．
"The pens improve the quality of work because they force the children to take care, and better work improves self-esteem", headmaster Bryan Lewis said．" Proper handwriting is as relevant today as it ever has been．" Students as young as 7 have been instructed to give up their ball point pens and begin to deal with its more artful predecessor．By the time they reach grade five, at age 9, they are expected to write mainly with fountain pens．Lewis said the school"s 7- and 8-year-olds use fountain pens for 80 percent to 90 percent of their work, returning to pencils for such subjects as math．"I don"t see fountain pens as old-fashioned or out of date．Modern fountain pens are beautiful to use? it"s not like in the old days of broken metal points and dirtying writing paper," Lewis said．"We have a particular writing style and we have developed it very carefully and found a way that allows left-and right-handed people to write without dirtying paper．"
Some people in wealthy nations argue that handwriting is becoming less important because of the growing use of cell phone text messaging and typing on computers, but the school disagrees．"We talk of the paperless office and the paperless world, but this is not true," Lewis said．"You still need to have proper handwriting skills．"

For a girl who"s interested in fashion, what would be the dream job for success? Being a model? Probably no—?that"s for a pencil thin who doesn"t eat．One answer is, fashion stylist （时装造型师）．
As more brands open stores in China to enlarge their reach, the increase in outdoor advertising might light a stylist spark in a girl" s heart．Fashion magazine offices are crowded with applicants, and fashionable brand HR managers get thousands of resumes （简历） of people looking for a stylist position．
"It looked too high before, but now I find it more approachable," said Xue Rui, 22, a Fudan University Chinese literature grad who works as an assistant stylist at Hermes in Shanghai．"There is no certain rule in dressing up models, and you can try every way with your own taste to make them pretty and attractive．"
The attractiveness of this line of work is not only in the elegant clothes．And it"s not like it used to be．Now it"s a well-paid and promising career．
"A stylist at a fashion magazine can have some special rights．You have a chance to contact （联系） famous persons and dress them up in a style you like," said Cheng Hong, chief editor of the Chinese version of L" officiel Hommes magazine．" You need to cooperate with top photographers and select places around the world to take photos in．You might also be invited to fashion shows of top brands and can select some of the favorite clothes．"
Girls can find it hard to ignore this field and it is opening up to normal girls, not only style or fashion design majors．A fashion designer knows how to make a dress pretty, but a stylist knows how to make a person beautiful, from head to toe．
There exist some problems, no matter how great you may think it is, it" s unbelievably hard work．You need to build good relations with various people, say stars, photographers, PR managers, other media, and even airlines．You need to take care of clothes in the workplace and pay for even a tiny spot you get on them．The worst thing is that you might work extremely hard for a week on some serious photos, but if the chief"s not satisfied, you do them all over again．
So, remember, girls, you"ve been warned．
64．What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph probably mean?
A．Being a model is thin girls" business．
B．A good model eats nothing but fruits．
C．To be a model, she must look like a pencil．
D．To be a model, she can not eat nutritious food．
65．As a stylist at a fashion magazine, you need to do the following things EXCEPT .
A．make contact with famous persons B．dress yourself up in a special style

Science Daily -------- Dutch ecologist Roxina Soler and her colleagues have discovered that subterranean（地下的）and above ground herbivorous（食草的）insects can communicate with each other by using plants as telephones. Subterranean insects issue chemical warning signals through the leaves of the plant. Thus, aboveground insects are warned that the plant is already “ occupied”.
In recent years it has been discovered that different types of aboveground insects develop slowly if they feed on plants that also have subterranean residents and vice versa（反之亦然）. It seems that a system has developed through natural selection, which helps the subterranean and aboveground insects to communicate with each other. This avoids unnecessary competition.
Through the “green telephone lines”, subterranean insects can also communicate with a third party, namely caterpillars（毛虫）. Parasitic wasps（寄生的黄蜂）lay their eggs inside aboveground insects. The wasps also benefit from the signals sent by the leaves, The communication between subterranean and aboveground It is still not clear how widespread this phenomenon is.
