About one in ten video game players shows signs of addictive behavior that could have negative effects on their family, friends and school work, according to a new study conducted in New York.

    Researchers at Iowa State University(ISU) and the National Institute on Media and the Family found that some gamers show at least six symptoms of gambling addiction such as lying to family and friends about how much they play games, using the games to escape their problems and becoming restless when they stop playing.

    They may also skip homework to play video games or spend too much time playing games and do poorly in school. “While the medical community currently does not recognize video game addiction as mental disorder, hopefully this study will be one of many that allow us to have an educated conversation on the positive and negative effects of video games,” said Dr Douglas Gentile, an assistant professor of psychology at ISU.

    Dr David Walsh, the president of the National Institute on Media and the Family which tries to reduce the harm of media on the health and development of children and families, said the findings are a wake-up call.“This study gives everyone a better idea of the problem,” he explained.

    The researchers, who studied 1,178 American children and teenagers, aged 8 to 18, found some displayed at least 6 of 11 symptoms of pathological (病态的) gambling as stated by the American Psychiatric Association. Addicted gamers played video games 24 hours a week, twice as much as casual gamers. Some addicted gamers even steal to support their habit, according to the findings that will be published in the journal Psychological Science.

    While video games can be fun and entertaining, some kids are getting trouble. “I continue to hear from families who are concerned about their kids’ gaming habits. Not only do we need to focus on identifying the problem, but we need to find ways to help families prevent and treat gaming addiction.

iPads vs Textbooks

What if you could have your whole backpack at the touch of your fingertips? In the first month of the Apple iPads release, 25million were sold! People all over the world use iPads for all sorts of different things, but one of their finest qualities is the ability to be a textbook.   36 

To begin with, iPads are less expensive. Textbooks become outdated and schools have to buy new books, but with an iPad schools can update them for free.   37   Schools don’t have to spend $500 every year for iPads because they last a while and can be updated.

  38   Students usually have multiple classes, which results in multiple textbooks. Heavy backpacks filled with books can cause back problem. A solution to that is an iPad, which only weighs 1.33 pounds and can hold all of a student’s textbooks.

Third, schools should get rid of their textbooks and get iPads because they have more capabilities. Some might think all of the apps are distracting, but the apps actually make iPads more efficient.   39   Textbooks cannot do those tasks, but iPads can easily do them with just a tap of the fingertip.

Lastly, iPads are a better choice for schools instead of textbooks because these devices allow students to access their learning anywhere at any time.   40   With iPads, they find it easier to get their homework done.

In conclusion, schools should get rid of their clumsy textbooks and switch to iPads. iPads have allowed this generation to have their entire backpack in the palm of their hands.

A. Second, iPads cost less and are more popular.

B. These tablets are perfect for busy students.

C. Therefore, they can use the saved money for other programs.

D. Moreover, in high school, textbooks have an average of 4.8 pounds each.

E. iPads have already replaced textbooks in over 600 American counties.

F. Schools have every reason to do away with their school books and switch to iPads.

G. iPads absorb the need to buy calculators, dictionaries, and other items that are found within the device.

C. left off    D. let alone

Most times, what people accept as hope is a feeling or thought that something desired may happen. The word hope is a guarantee（保证）of happiness without a doubt. Hope in ancient Greek is “elpis” meaning “to expect or look forward with pleasure”. Orison Swett Marden says “there is no medicine as great and powerful expectation of something better tomorrow.”

Samuel Esson Jonah is one of the world’s most influential personalities of this century. When he was young, mining for Africans was hell on earth, because they were treated very badly and there were no key positions in the industry for them because it was believed that the black could not manage their affairs successfully. Even in the face of all these challenges and discriminations, Jonah hoped to head the industry someday. When he told his workmates and parents about his hope, he became a laughing stock. Not giving up on his hope, he worked hard toward it and at last he became president of Anglo Gold Ashanti.

Hope without doubt helps you to work hard until you finally achieve your aims or goals. Hope keeps one alive and also helps us persevere (坚持) to succeed. Someone may say “I’ve tried and failed several times”. As a matter of fact, failure is inevitable(无法避免的) sometimes but that doesn’t overrule your ability to succeed. The key is that you can’t give up your hope. Our history has seen many great achievers. Though they hoped they could make it, they also failed; however, they didn’t give up on their hope. They worked even harder and eventually succeeded.

Today when we can celebrate so many of them for their courage, remember “faith without work is dead”, so is your dream or hope. Samuel Similes says “Hope is the companion（伙伴） of power, the mother of success, for who so hopes strongly has within him the gift of miracles (奇迹).” So don’t let your hope down.

12. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?

A. How to remain hopeful.

B. What hope really means.

C. The importance of having hope.

D. The relationship between hope and pleasure.

13. The author uses the example of Samuel Esson Jonah mainly to _________.

A. prove that hope can lead to success

B. prove a lowly man can also succeed

C. show the times produce their heroes

D. show it’s hard for a black to succeed

14. According to Paragraph 3, to succeed one should _________.

A. acquire great ability

B. avoid quitting easily

C. try to understand history

D. stop being overconfident

15. Which would be the best title for the text?

A. Hope is just a choice

B. Keep your hope alive

C. Failure breeds success

D. How to achieve success

Did you grow up in one culture, your parents came from another, and you are now living in a totally different country? If so, then you are a third-culture kid!

The term“third-culture kid” (or TCK) was coined in the 1960s by Dr. Ruth. She first came across this phenomenon when she researched North American children living in India. Caught between two cultures, they form their very own.  46   About 90 percent of them have a university degree, while 40 percent pursue a postgraduate or doctor degree. They usually benefit from their intercultural experience, which helps them to grow into successful academics and professionals.

 47  In fact many hardships may arise from this phenomenon. A third-culture kid may not be able to adapt themselves completely to their new surroundings as expected. Instead, they may always remain an outsider in different host cultures. Max, for example, experienced this fundamental feeling of strangeness throughout his life as a third-culture kid.    48  While this can be a way to create a network of friends all around the world, it can be difficult for a third-culture kid like Max to maintain close friendships and relationships.

For a third-culture kid, it is often easier to move to a new foreign country than to return to their “home” country. After living in Australia and South Korea for many years, Louis finally returned to Turkey as a teenager. But she felt out of place when she returned to the country where she was born  _49   She did not share the same values as her friends’ even years after going back home. 

While a third-culture kid must let go of his/her identity as a foreigner when he/she returns, the home country can prove to be more foreign than anything he/she came across before . The peer group they face does not match the idealized image children have of“home”   50 

As a part of the growing “culture”, third-culture kids may find it a great challenge for them to feel at home in many places

A. Yet being a third-culture kid is not always easy.

B. In general, they often reach excellent academic results.

C. This often makes it hard for them to form their own identity.

D. However, their parents can help them see the opportunities of a mobile lifestyle.

E. Their experience abroad helps them gain a better understanding of cultural differences.

F. Unlike other teens of her age, she didn’t know anything about current TV shows or fashion trends.

G.. Additionally, making new friends and saying goodbye to old ones will at some point become routine for a third-culture kid.

Financial problems can easily surface (显露) if left unmanaged. ___36___ Here are some simple ways to improve your money management.

Record all your expenses. Put down your expenses under areas such as the car payment, electric bills, groceries, entertainment, study and other expense items. __37___

Review the unexpected expenses each month. ___38___ Eat out less, shop for cheaper items such as insurance or medication, or join in less expensive activities. The rule to remember is if you can’t pay it in cash, you can’t afford it.

___39___Financial experts advise that the amount be at least 10 percent of your pay. If you can save that much, every little bit you save adds up and can make a difference.

Avoid using credit cards. If you have to, use them as little as possible and be sure that the credit card you’re using has a low interest rate.

Stay away from shortcuts to wealth or plans to get rich quick. You can never be successful in making money by shortcuts like gambling (赌博) and lottery. ___40___ You just end up throwing your money away.

Seek a financial adviser to help you plan your finances and investments. Do remember that this applies only to those who are too bad at managing money because once you turn to a financial adviser you will have to spend an extra sum of money.

A. Set aside some money for savings.

B. Decide what you need to buy and how much you can afford to spend.

C. If it is more than your income, look for ways to reduce your spending.

D. Among some shortcuts, the chances of losing are much higher than success.

E. Always consult your mate when making major decisions about your finances.

F. This way you can record how much is spent on each item and develop a budget plan.

G. The best way to avoid financial problems is to budget money and watch spending closely.

__________________________________________________

__________________________________________________

Thank you！

A couple of weeks ago, I made a trip to Toronto with my granddaughter who just turned three years old. The two of us were on our way to  41  her parents and my wife, her  42  who had been gone for over a week. We were all anxious to  43  again. As I pulled out of Mamere and Papere’s driverway in Chelmsford, Hailee and I were both  44  about the trip and couldn't wait to arrive at our  45  .

When we completed the“SEVEN”-hour trip to Toronto later that day, the reunion was absolutely  46  and I can sincerely say I enjoyed every single minute of that  47  journey.

Hailee is at that “I want to  48  it myself” stage of her life. And if you can just get over the “hurry-up syndrome (综合征)” we acquire as  49  , it is wonderful to witness that putting a straw into the  50  in a juice box for the very first time could be such an earth-shattering（惊天动地的）event or being  51  enough to actually open the fridge door for the first time or putting on your own  52  on the right feet — would be so   53  ?

I’ll never forget the look on her face the day she was able to  54  into my truck by herself. She finally  55  on my seat, holding onto the steering wheel (方向盘) and declared  56  “I did it!” And when she could actually put her own seat belt on, what a(n)  57  !

Have you ever watched a three-year-old  58  to sip (啜_______饮) a McDonald's milkshake through a straw? It is hard enough for an adult, too. And  59  every time the icy solution (溶液) touched her lips, you could see the  60  in her eyes. I learned that you can't hurry a child through a milkshake.

Robert had a comfortable childhood, ________ up in a pleasant house with a view of the sea.

A. grew  B. growing  C. grown  D. to grow

As a doctor, I became the 61.        (great) surgeon in the country and the president of the National Society of Surgeons. For this reason, a celebration 62.        (hold) in my honor But I couldn’t help feeling sad.

On the day, my friend came up to me and said: “You’ve achieved something that others can’t even dream about. 63.        are you so sad?”

“I’ve achieved something that I didn’t even want,” I said, “I 64.        wanted to be a surgeon and now I can’t escape from it. If I would suffer a 65.        (fail) then maybe I would have a chance to do something that I really love. But for now, I’m chained to a thing that I don’t evenlike.”

“You 66.        be joking?” my friend cried out, “The biggest honor for a surgeon is 67.        (become) the president of our national society. Your wife is happy, your children are happy. Everyone has the highest respect for you!”

But I don t respect myself, that’s 68.        is wrong. I wanted to be a dancer, but my parents were against 69.        and I listened to them. I was weak. I became a great surgeon, but I am not working in the field that I wanted to devote my life 70.       . That is why I am unhappy.

A classic joke goes like this: A nurse rushes into an exam room and says, “Doctor, doctor, there is an invisible man in the waiting room.” The doctor says, “Tell him I can’t see him.” Pretty simple, right?

Here is how I tell it: “A nurse—her name is Joyce—feels a presence in the waiting room. She looks around but sees nothing. She jumps up from her desk, carefully replaces her chair, and runs down the hallway to the doctor’s office. She knocks on the door. No response. He’s not there. Where can he be? She continues down the hall, admiring a picture of an 18th-century Mississippi boat along the way.” By the time, my audience has left, but I go on. “She bursts into the exam room and says, ‘Doctor, doctor!’ The doctor, I should mention...”

You get the idea. I can’t leave a simple joke alone.

I’m not the only joke-challenged member of the family. My sister’s worse than I am. Her problem: She can’t remember them. “‘A nurse rushes into an exam room and says...’ Uh, let me start all over again. ‘A nurse rushes into a waiting...’ No, it’s not the waiting room. She just came from the waiting room. Let me start all over again. ‘A doctor rushes into...’ No, wait…”

My uncle’s different. “Okay，this is a good one. Ready? No, really, ready? Okay, ‘A nurse...’ Got it? A nurse? Okay, ready? ‘A nurse rushes into an exam room and says: Doctor, there’s an invisible man in the waiting room.’ Now, this is where it gets funny. Ready?’ No one is ever ready, so they leave before he gets to the funny part.

No one in my family has ever finished this joke.

Next time you see my family and someone is telling a joke, do yourself a favour: Make yourself invisible.
