Micro bloggers:have you ever compared the number of fans on your Sina Weibo or Tencent micro blog with those of your friends ?Don’t imagine you have more fans just because your number is bigger——some of them might be “zombie fans”,or fake(假的)followers.
That’s what Chen Chuanliang ,creator of Leijian Network,found when he bet against his friend several months ago.Chen,who used to do data mining for Microsoft Asia Research Institute,discovered that there were far more invalid(無(wú)效的)micro blog accounts than he had imagined.
Later Chen picked 1 0 users on Sina Weibo and analyzed their statistics.Kai-Fu Lee,the former CEO of Google China,who’s on Chen’s list of research,posted a message on his micro blog after he found out that he had more than 1 million fake fans(out of about 5 million),joking“I have 1 million zombie fans ?If united,we can finally defeat those plants.”
According to a report by S Weekly in March,zombie fans on micro blogs are defined as invalid accounts signed up by network companies for the purpose of increasing the number of fans for certain users and getting them more attention.
And this kind of fake followers are also very much alive on Western social networks such as Twitter and Facebook .
The Financial Times reported in August,that Newt Gingrich,a Republican candidate in the US presidential election,bought about 80 percent of his 1.3 million Twitter followers and tried to use them as help in his campaign.
Now there are also business deals through which users can get hundreds of thousands of fans for their micro blog accounts,by paying a small amount of money.
“We have been working to find ways to block or delete those invalid accounts,”Mao Taotao,a spokesperson for Sina Weibo told S Weekly.
“But as the fake accounts grow so fast,they’re going to be here for a while.

Parents are creating an “I want it now” generation by indulging children's every demand at Christmas,say experts.Youngsters are becoming increasingly selfish,claim the education analysts.
Consumer­savvy children are forcing their families into racking up huge debts and risk becoming spoilt and dissatisfied in the future.
Behavioural consultant Chris Calland said,“Parents are desperate to make Christmas into a magical fairy tale for their kids.There's nothing wrong with that as such.The problem arises when it means always giving in to all our children's demands—even if they are beyond our price range or not age­appropriate.”
Ms.Calland,who runs “Santa Says No” style sessions with colleague Nicky Hutchinson,added, “Many of us go into so much debt providing the gifts our children want that we spend the rest of the year paying off the bills.Yet so often the parcels we've carefully wrapped,once opened,are just pushed away because the very thing our little boy or girl was once so desperate for, they have now lost interest in.”
Ms. Calland and Ms.Hutchinson have drawn up a list of guidelines to help parents manage their offspring's Christmas lists this year.They say that adults can actually improve their relationships with their children by resisting “pester (糾纏) power”.
Ms.Calland said,“All too often we say yes because we want an easier life when the fact is that we're only building up problems for the future.We are helping create a generation of youngsters who are blind to the needs of others and the necessity of hard work.”
“Children learn fast—if we sometimes change our mind,they quickly realise it might be worth lying on the floor and screaming for it.Make sure you and your partner are working together on this.Be consistent.And try not to get caught up in competition with other families or friends.”
小題1:How is the “I want it now” generation created?
A.Parents can't afford the gifts for their children.
B.Parents become heavily in debt.
C.Parents are trying to make Christmas into a magical fairy tale.
D.Parents give children whatever they want at Christmas.
小題2:What is the main problem with the “I want it now” generation?
A.They are quite self­centered.
B.They like to live in fairy tales.
C.They waste a lot of money on gifts.
D.They can't keep their interest in gifts.
小題3:What is probably the aim of “Santa Says No” style sessions?
A.To advise on how to wrap gifts properly.
B.To keep children's interest in the gifts.
C.To tell parents how to say no to children's demands.
D.To advise parents on what gifts to buy for children.
小題4:According to the passage,we can infer that Ms.Calland intends to ________.
A.a(chǎn)nalyze children's behavior
B.give advice to parents
C.introduce a new generation
D.give her support to parents
小題5:Ms.Calland would agree that parents should ________.
A.buy nothing for children at Christmas
B.choose gifts carefully for children
C.let children choose their own gifts
D.a(chǎn)void competing with others

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman's life spent in caring for the children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties ,and would be likely to have seven or eight children, four or five of whom lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which health made it unusual for her to get paid work.. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman's youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five years and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has to take care of children, her work is lightened by moder living conditions.
This important change in women's life-patterns has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position. Even a few years ago most girls took a full-time job after they left school.. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school- leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women usually marry older, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born.  Many more afterwards return to full-or-part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them.
小題1:At what age did most women marry around the 1890 according to the passage?
A.At about twenty-fiveB.In their earl fifties
C.At the age of fifteenD.At any age from fifteen to forty-five
小題2:What happened to an ordinary family in about 1900?
A.The youngest child could live to fifteen.
B.Four of five children died after they were five.
C.Seven or eight children lived to be more than five.
D.Some children died when the were very young.
小題3:When she was over fifty , a late nineteenth-century mother ______.
A.was usaully expected to die fiarely soon
B.would expect to work until she died
C.would be healthy enough to take up paid jobs
D.was less like to find a job even if she wanted to
小題4:What do we know from the passage?
A.Husbands and wives share equal responsibilities at home.
B.More and more women are looked down upon by husbands.
C.Today women prefer to get married rather than get jobs.
D.A husband plays a greater part in looking after the children.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

My oldest child, Emma, just returned to campus after a long holiday break to finish up her last period of college. These days, friends and family have begun flooding me with one question: What is she going to do after graduation?
The job market is, after all, awfully tough. Just this month the Federal Reserve Bank published a study showing that “recent graduates are increasingly working in low-paid jobs or working part-time.” The bright spot, according to the study, is for students who majored(主修) in STEM— science, technology, engineering and mathematics — areas in which recent graduates “have tended to do relatively well”.
But Emma is a student of the humanities(人文) at a small college. She’s an American Studies major with a focus on the politics and culture of food. For quite a while, I think her field of study is so fashionable right now that I’m not the least bit worried she will find a good job. Yet the more I’ve thought about it, the more I’ve decided to be honest. “I’m not sure what Emma is going to do,” I now say. “But she’s gotten a great education and has really found her interest. — and I know those things will serve her well over the course of her life.”
Nowadays, more and more universities and colleges are being measured by the salaries of their recent graduates. In this climate, encouraging your kid to study the humanities, seems, at best, unwise or, at worst, unconcerned with earning a living. But a college is not a vocational(職業(yè)) school. And promoting STEM subjects should not be society’s only answer to helping the next generation grow in a competitive world.
From the beginning, we never urged Emma to pick a college or a major with an eye on its expected return on money, as more and more families are doing. To Emma, what really matters will be something that we may not be able to measure for quite a long time: Emma’s contribution to the world and how happy she is in it.
小題1:The author’s friends and family_________.
A.a(chǎn)re worried about Emma’s safety
B.have been worrying about the flood
C.a(chǎn)re concerned about Emma’s future
D.a(chǎn)re worried about the job market
小題2:What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A.The number of the graduates is increasing.
B.STEM graduates can be better employees.
C.STEM graduates are in relatively greater demand.
D.More and more graduates like to do a part-time job.
小題3:Why did Emma choose a major in the humanities?
A.Because she is interested in it.
B.Because her mother told her to.
C.Because it is increasingly popular.
D.Because she wants further education.
小題4:According to the author, what matters most in choosing a major is that_________.
A.it should be among the STEM
B.it should be fashionable and interesting
C.it should allow a good job and a high salary
D.it should bring achievements and happiness

Tattoos and body piercings(穿孔) have moved up on the trend list in recent years.Around Western schools lots of teens are sporting new holes and “flesh ink”(紋身).As with all other subjects, the Chinese will surely have to deal with this situation with respect to their children.To get a better view of what has happened in the West, let's sit down and hear what they say.
Tiara from Indiana:
I personally think body piercing is sickening.If there were supposed to be holes in your body, you would have been born with them.I do, however, think that ear piercing is not wrong.There is a difference between ear piercing and belly button piercing.Ear piercing is not nearly as dangerous.I would be sick if someone stuck a needle in my belly button.
Lee from Illinois:
Hi! I live in Illinois.I am 23.I have 12 tattoos and three piercings.I love my tattoos and consider myself an art collector.You would be surprised at who has given me the thumbs up on my art work.People on the street stop me to look at the tattoo on my leg.Most of them don't know what it is.They just think the work itself is great.
Subotai from California:
I'm not forbidden of self­expression, but when I see high school students getting these piercings, I really wonder.In some cases, the drive is deeper and darker than mere fashion.A friend of mine tried piercing her own tongue with a safety pin.It got infected and she had a tongue the size of a cow's.
Jackson from Ohio:
I don't think it is wrong, but when people do it all over the place like their face and everything—I think that's ridiculous.People who get the big “dragons that cover the whole body—I don't think that's necessary.” When I see naked chicks on guys, I think, “You have no respect for women.”
小題1:Who doesn't think tattoos and piercings except ear piercing are beautiful?
A.Jackson.B.Lee.C.Tiara.D.Subotai.
小題2:We can conclude that ________.
A.tattoos and piercings are a new kind of elegant art
B.a(chǎn)ll the teachers in the West are in favour of tattoos and piercings
C.everything is changeable as time goes on
D.it is necessary to live with different views of beauty
小題3:The best title for this passage is probably ________.
A.Body Art or Causing Damage
B.Doing Damage to the Young People's Bodies
C.Young People's Different Curiosities
D.The Latest Fashion

"The Chinese Dream" is a hot topic of this year. Many Chinese young people are inspired by the Chinese Dream. Everyone has their own dreams. They give us courage and confidence to keep us going through difficulties. Here are some advice on how to realize our beautiful dreams.
Never giving up is the key to make our dreams come true. We may fail from time to time, but we can learn from failure, correct our mistakes and try again until we achieve our goals. Our life is like a long journey which is not all roses. It sometimes has wind and rain. We believe rainbows will appear after storms.
Cooperation is also necessary. Everyone likes a person who is good at cooperating with others. Besides, in our society most problems can't be solved by one person alone. Cooperation is becoming one of the most important ways for people living in the developing society.
At the same time, we should learn to examine our abilities because it helps us know our advantages and disadvantages as well as get a full control of ourselves. Then we may be confident enough to face challenges.
Follow the suggestions above, and our dreams are sure to come true.
小題1:How many suggestions of making dreams come true are mentioned in this passage?
A.One.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.

Should students do the grading?
The Supreme Court says the practice doesn’t violate(侵犯) a student’s right to privacy, but is it right for students to grade one another?
Walter Potenza, California
The Supreme Court was absolutely correct to say it’s OK for students to grade one another’s homework, quizzes, and tests: in fact, it’s a great idea.
By grading one another’s papers and seeing the problems their classmates have, students double their exposure(暴露) to the troubles that they may meet on future exams and tests. Grading one another’s papers may be one of the best ways for students to reinforce within themselves the ways to master the most difficult parts of what they are learning.
Teachers are underappreciated and underpaid for the number of hours they have to work to be able to teach really well. Grading all their students’ papers can take hours. Some of that time and energy can be saved by spending a few minutes in class, while providing an extremely valuable learning experience.
I understand that some individuals are sensitive to their classmates seeing their work or grades. Any good teacher would be considerate of students who don’t want their classmates to grade their assignments.
Winston Smith, North Carolina
A girl moves back as her classmate announces her failing test grade and hands her the paper. The quiet classroom heats up.
With the increase in student grading over the past few years, scenes like this have become a bitter reality in schools across the nation. Teachers and schools should not advocate student grading and public announcement of grades because it provides a violation of privacy for students and causes unfair judgments and treatment by their classmates.
Since 1974, a law known as the Buckley Amendment has forbidden the release of education records in order to protect the privacy of students and their families. I strongly disagree with the Court’s ruling that this law does not include student grading.
I can think of no greater violation of privacy than the exposure of one’s personal information to a group of peers(同齡人). This can be very embarrassing. Releasing this sort of personal information should be avoided, especially by institutions that seek to provide a supportive environment during essential years of human development.
小題1:The underlined word “reinforce” has the same meaning as “_________”.
A.changeB.imagineC.strengthenD.create
小題2:Walter Potenza suggests that ______________.
A.teachers should set aside some time to grade students’ papers
B.the Supreme Court should do more research on students grading
C.teachers should guide students on how to grade homework
D.teachers should be careful not to hurt those sensitive students
小題3:By mentioning the example of a girl, Winston Smith wants to ____________.
A.show her weak points
B.criticize the student grader
C.tell us she is not a good student
D.present the negative effect of student grading
小題4:What does Winston Smith seem to agree?
A.Student grading is not related to families’ privacy.
B.The Supreme Court should change its decision.
C.The Buckley Amendment doesn’t apply to student grading.
D.Student grading is OK, but not public announcement of grades.
