閱讀下面的短文，并根據(jù)文章后的要求答題。
　It is widely accepted that television is playing an important part in people's lives. But, there is a heated discussion as to whether television does good or harm.
Television keeps one learning more about present events, allows one to follow the most re¬cent developments in politics and science, and offers various programs which are .both instructive and exciting. The most distant countries, the strangest customs and the most attractive scenes of nature are brought right into one's room or house.
However, some people insist that television is bad rather than good. They argue that it has brought about many serious problems. The major one is its effects on young people. Children are now so used to getting their information and entertainment from television that their ability to read and write as well as physical ability has been greatly weakened. Even worse than that, vulgar( 庸俗的) advertisements and poor programs may develop their bad tastes, shape their view points badly towards human life to such a degree that their minds might be destroyed.
In a word, television has both advantages and disadvantages. Whatever effects it has, one point is certain, television in itself is neither good nor bad. It is the use to which it is put that decides its value to society.

At East China University of Science and Technology, students will get a coupon（優(yōu)惠券）if they eat up their food. Students can collect coupons and exchange them for small gifts, such as books , magazines, mobile phone covers and hand warmers.
"It's been such a surprise," said Liang Zhaoyun, 19, a student at the university in Shanghai. "It has given us one more motivation to finish our food."

The aim of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food.  We hope it can also encourage students to choose a more environment-friendly and healthy lifestyle, said Tao Siliang, secretary of the Youth League Committee at Shanghai University.
But some school food is poorly prepared, so students do not like to finish it all. Some schools have taken notice of this and they are taking measures to improve it.

In a book called Magnificent Obsession, by Lloyd C. Douglas, a description is given of people helping others but doing it secretly. When difficult problems worried a person, friends nearby would meet to discuss possible solution without the person knowing their actions. When a solution was agreed upon, one or two of the friends would carry out the plan and solve the problem secretly, to the great delight of the worried person. The helpers would stand by privately, content with their success. No reward was given to the problem solvers, not even a sincere “thank you”, because they were never known.
This idea is popular today but in a different way. The phrase “pay it forward” is now used when one person helps another. However, the person helped may not be able to repay the person or group that helped them. So rather than return the favor to their helpers, they are supposed to help someone else in the future, which means they pay it forward. It is a sense of responsibility(責(zé)任) which makes us want to give back in equal measure to the one who has helped us. But, in this case, the responsibility turns to helping someone in the future.
Suppose your elderly grandmother pays part of your schooling. She may tell you there is no need to repay her because it is a gift from someone who loves you very much. Nothing would please her more than to have you use her money to get a good education.
You may never be able to repay her for such a gift. However, she not only gave you some money, but she provided you with an example that you should also help other people who need it.
People with serious needs are everywhere. Many are children who need better clothes, more books and even better schools. Some are elderly people who can’t afford their medicine or a doctor’s care. Consider how you can “pay it forward” rather than pay money back to your grandmother.
小題1:The helpers in the book “Magnificent Obsession” were not rewarded because ______________.
A．they hadn’t solved the problems thoroughly
B．they had solved the problems secretly
C．they were friends of the worried individual
D．they expected to be paid back in the future
小題2:The underlined word “pay it forward” means ____________________.
A．to repay someone who has helped you
B．to pay someone else who needs help
C．to help someone who has helped you
D．to help someone else who needs help
小題3:What does the writer suggest with the example of “your elderly grandmother”?
A．We should learn to respect our grandparents.
B．We should work hard to get a good education.
C．We should also lend a hand to other people in need of help.
D．We should never forget to repay people for their help.
小題4:From the passage we know_________________.
A．everybody needs help
B．more children need help than elderly people
C．it costs a lot of money to “pay it forward”
D．nowadays many people help others without being repaid

Today we can use the Internet for many things: shopping, business, writing letters, talking to people, getting information and so on. In recent years, a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. There's no real word for it yet, so we call it e-talk.
People don't like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases into a few letters， acronyms(首字母縮略詞). Acronyms are often used in chat rooms. Some are as follows:
BRB (be right back), BTW (by the way), LOL (laughing out loud), IMO (in my opinion)
People also use many abbreviations. They are shortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations include info (information), pic (picture), puter (computer), sec (second), etc.
We usually don't see people when we communicate on the Net, so people have new ways to show feelings. Most people use their keyboards to draw "feelings", such as:
:-)  (happy)     ;-)  (joking)       :-(  (sad)        :-O  (surprised)
These days, many public discussions have picture feelings, for example:
    
(happy)           (sad)            (angry)           ( (cool)
There are even whole new words, like "newbies"(someone who is new on a chat board or forum). When you write something bad about someone else, it's called "burning" the person.
It takes time for people to get used to e-talk. Also, different groups on the Net have their own special ways of communicating. Newbies sometimes have to ask other people what they mean. As the Internet grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change.
小題1:Why do people type acronyms?
A．To type them quickly.B．To make jokes.
C．To make newbies puzzled.D．To show their feelings.
小題2:What does the sentence “BTW, my puter is not working well. :-( ”mean?
A．The person is happy about getting a new computer.
B．The person has to go away from their computer.
C．The person is sad that his computer is having problems.
D．The person is angry at somebody.
小題3:If someone is angry, what may he type?
A.   LOL      B. BRB.               C.   D.
小題4:E-talk will probably____________.
A．stay the same
B．keep changing
C．be used by people on the telephone
D．be easy for newbies to understand

Thousands of teenagers will be able to move to a new wave of “studio schools” at the age of 14 to improve their chances of finding a job in UK. Twelve new-style schools are open to act as a bridge to the workplace and cut the number of NEETs.
Under plans, schools will operate longer days and work outside standard school terms.
Each teenager will be expected to spend between four hours and two days a week on work placements with business related to the school and a personal coach will be sent to the teenagers to act as a school “l(fā)ine manager”.
The reforms (改革) are put forward because of the fears that too many teenagers are finishing full-time education at present but they are short of the skills needed to succeed in the workplace. According to a recent report, more than two thirds of employers (雇主) believe school and college leavers have less important employability skills, while 55% say they are unable to manage their time or daily routine. And the number of NEETs who are not in education has hit a record high, with almost one-in-five young people being left without a job or a training place.
The Department for Education will tell the public the building of 12 studio schools – providing for around 3,600 teenagers – in areas such as Liverpool, Stevenage, Stock-on-Trent and Fulham, west London. Each one will be connected to the local employers. Under plans, teenagers will be able to move out of ordinary schools to attend them between the ages of 14 and 19.
The government said all subjects would be taught “through projects, often prepared with employers” – with rules such as science being connected directly to local engineering companies or hospitals. Schools will operate a longer day to give teenagers a better understanding of the needs of the workplace. Along with their studies, students will carry out work placements for four hours a week, rising to two days a week of paid work for those aged 16 to 19. They will also get the chance to take professional qualifications (專業(yè)資歷) connected directly to the needs of local employers.
小題1:According to the passage, NEETs refer to those who ______.
A．often miss classes from studio school
B．prefer studio schools to ordinary schools
C．refuse to take any part-time job after school
D．a(chǎn)re not in education, employment or training
小題2:Compared to ordinary schools, studio schools will offer the young more ______.
A．skills to finish full-time education
B．personal coaches to help with the work
C．chances to get future jobs with job training
D．jobs to make money without going outside
小題3:What makes the government decide to build studio schools?
A．The worry about educated teenagers short of working skills.
B．The doubt about whether full-time education is perfect.
C．The decision to solve the problems of unemployment.
D．The increasing number of teens who drop out early.
小題4:What can be the best title for the passage?
A．Studio schools are popular in UK at present.
B．More NEETs will find jobs from Studio schools.
C．Teenagers will get jobs without full-time education.
D．Studio schools are built to improve teens’ employability skills.
