阅读理解。     Some people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people
will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper when the TV news can bring you the
information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read a novel when a play on television can tell you the
same story with color, pictures and action? Why read the biographies of famous men and women when a
one-hour-long television program can tell you all that you want to know?
     Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers and magazines sell in very large numbers.
And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and
entertainment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are published today as
paperbacks, which are reasonably cheap. A paperback novel, for example, is always cheaper than an evening
at the movies or the theater, and you can keep a book forever and read it many times.
     Books in the home are a wonderful source of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be
in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. Every home should have an atlas (地图集) of the
world, with large clear maps. It might be expensive, but a good encyclopedia is useful, too, because you can
find information on any subject. In addition, it is useful to have on your bookshelves other non-fiction books
such as history books, science textbooks, cook books, books about medicine and health, etc. it is equally
important to have some fiction (小说) on your shelves, too. Then you can relax with a good story, or from
time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read thoughts and feelings of your favorite
poets. 1. Which is usually quicker? A. To read a biography of a famous person.
B. To watch a television program about a famous person.

                                                         Moving out, moving back
      In the countries all over the world, people are leaving the countryside in large numbers to find jobs in the
cities. They leave because the countryside is much poorer than the city and often there isn"t much work there.
Services such as hospital and transport (交通) are usually much better in cities than they are in the country.
They hope that their lives will improve when they move to the city.
     But in the big cities of Europe and America-London, Pairs, New York, people are moving out of the city.
These are usually families who have some money, and want to live a quieter life. They are tired of the noise and
the dirt of the city, and the crowded streets, trains. and buses. They don"t want to sit in traffic any more. They
want a house with a garden, and clean air that isn"t polluted.
     So they move out. Some don"t go very far, just a little away from the city, to the towns near the cities;
other people move to the real countryside with sheep and cows and green fields! There, they start a new life
and try to make new friends.
     Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy. After two or three years, many people
who have done this feel that it was a big mistake. They don"t make so much money and there isn"t much to do.
Country people are very different and aren"t always very friendly.
     As a result, quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city. "It"s wonderful
to see crowds in the streets and cinema lights," they say, "I"m so glad I"m back in the city!"

    What"s a blog? A blog is a personal online diary (日记). It"s cool, it"s hot, and everyone is doing it. People
talk about it often. Sound like a fashion? In fact, It"s another trend (流行趋势). And the word "blogger" means
a person who writes diaries online. Are you a blogger?  
     Many bloggers are teenagers who log (进入) onto websites to discuss anything in their lives. Many of
today"s teenagers are not afraid to openly discuss everything in their lives. Teenagers complain about their
parents and homework. They share diaries, post (发布) songs from the latest bands and show pictures of
theirs. They write their own poems, say something about their girlfriends or boyfriends and complain to each
other or offer support. But mostly they just write down what they do every day.  
     However, many parents are worried about these young bloggers. Parents see the kids talking about how
they got drunk last weekend and how they don"t like studying. They are using the language that is surprising
to their parents. Besides hearing from their friends, teen bloggers also get messages from strangers. Most of
the time, it"s older men asking to meet teenage girls. "These strange men are dangerous for my kids. They
sometimes teach my kids bad words." said Cara Cabral, a mother of two children.  
     Many teenagers and young adults know it"s not safe to use blogs on the Internet. They know they are
putting information about themselves in a place where it can be seen by anyone. But teenagers are unwilling
to give up these new communication tools that have become a way of life for many of them.

      For one week in April, millions of people chose not to watch TV for “TV Turnoff Week”. TV Turnoff
Week started in 1995 and is more popular every year. Many people discover that you can have a good time
with the TV off. If that sounds crazy to you, just have a look at some numbers:
     ―An American teenager spends 900 hours every year at school; the same teenager spends 1,023 hours
every year watching TV. That"s 2 hours 49 minutes every day. 
     ―An average (平均) British person (not just teenagers) watches 3 hours 35 minutes every day.
     ―In the US, most TV has adverts. American children see 20,000 adverts every year. By age 65, an
American has seen two million ads!
     But some research from Britain says that may not be a problem. The London Business School watched
people carefully during TV adverts and they discovered that people don"t watch a lot of the ads. The
researchers discovered that the most common activity during the adverts was talking to other people in the
room. Many other people started reading or doing housework or changed channels during adverts. They
only really watched them about 25 percent of the time.

     The Internet has become part of teenage life. A new report on 3,375 students aged from 10 to 18 in
seven Chinese cities found that 38 percent of them believe they use the Internet often.
     While most of them get useful information and use the Internet to help in their studies, some are not
using it in a good way. Many are playing online games too much.. A few even visit websites they shouldn"t
look at. Hong Ying, a teacher from Beijing Yinghua Middle School warns that bad things can happen if young
people spend too much time on the Internet. She had a student who used to be good at school. But then he
started visiting sex websites. He went mad, cheated a girl and was taken away by the police.
     In order to help young people use the Internet in a good way, a textbook on good Internet behavior has
started to be used in some Shanghai middle schools this term.
     The book uses real examples to teach students all about good ways of using the Internet. The book gives
useful advice such as it"s good to read news or to find helpful information to study. Teachers and parents all
think the book is a very good idea.
     Hong said the book will be a guide for teens using the Internet. She believes it will keep students away
from bad websites.
