         As a father, I always do my best to help my son, Peter. I like to help him with his study. I encourage
    him to join team sports. I send him to the summer camp if he wants to go. I also teach him to be both a
    good student and a useful man.
         He used to make me feel proud. I often thought he was the best son and I was the best father in the
    world.
         However, things changed two years ago. It was Peter's 12th birthday. My wife and I bought him a
    computer as a present. We thought it was necessary for him to learn how to use a computer in the modern
    world. We knew that some children were addicted (上瘾的) to computer games and that they didn't study
    or work at all. Someone said that computers and the Internet were bad for children, but I didn't worry
    about it. I trusted (信任) my son. I believed that he could control himself. Peter did very well at first. He
    played computer games, but for only two hours every week. Most of the time he studied or wrote articles
    on the computer. We felt very happy to see that.   
         When we finally learned that Peter was also addicted to computer games, it was too late. He didn't like
    studying at all. He no longer joined team sports. Sometimes we even couldn't find him at night. He spent
    several days and nights at the Internet cafe. We tried everything to help him, but nothing worked. What
    should we do?

    B. 12 years old.
    C. 14 years old.
    D. 16 years old.
    3. What did the writer buy for his son as a birthday present two years ago?
    [     ]
    A. A computer.
    B. Some computer games.
    C. Some books.
    D. A computer book.
     4. How long did Peter play computer games at first?
    A. About two hours every day.
    B. About two hours every week.
    C. About two hours every month.
    D. The whole day.
    5. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? 
    [     ]
    A. Peter likes to study a lot now.
    B. It wasn't necessary for children to learn how to use a computer.

    sleep during the 9-hour flight. Unluckily, there was a baby sitting next to me. It cried and screamed
    during the whole trip. How could I fall asleep with all of that noise?
         When I arrived in Paris at last, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening. I felt even more tired. After
    getting off the plane, I went to my hotel at once. I paid no attention to the beautiful evening scenery of
    Paris. I just wanted to have a good rest in my room. When I lay down on the comfortable bed, I fell
    asleep very quickly.
         A sudden noise woke me up at midnight. I didn't know what happened, so I turned on the light. What
