| They like using the Internet.They have lots of pocket money to spend.And they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us.Teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in, and the things they want to buy－games, CDs and clothing－are easily sold on the Web. But paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit cards. Most have to use a parent's card.They want a facility that allows them to spend money. That may come sooner than they think: new ways to take pocket money into cyber (网络的) space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic.If successful, these products can stimulate (刺激) online sales. In general, teenagers spend huge amounts: $153bn (billion) in the US last year and ￡20bn annually in the UK.Most teenagers have access to the Internet at home or at school --- 88 percent in the US, 69 percent in the UK.According to the Jupiter Research, one in eight of those with Internet access has bought something online---mainly CDs and books. In most cases, parents pay for these purchases with credit cards, an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children.Pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street.They are more likely to ask "Why?" if you ask to spend some money online. One way to help teenagers change notes and coins into cybercash is through prepaid cards such as InternetCash in the US and Smart cards in the UK.Similar to those for pay-as-you-go mobile telephones, they are sold in amounts such as￡20 or $50 with a concealed 14-digit number that can be used to load the cash into an online account. |
| 1.What does the word "They" in paragraph 1 refer to? |
| A. Sellers. B. Buyers. C. Teenagers. D. Parents. |
| 2. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? |
| A. More than half of the teenagers in the US and the UK have Internet access. B. Teenagers pay for goods online with their own credit cards. C. Most teenagers in the US and the UK have bought something online. D. Teenagers find it easier to persuade parents to buy online than in a shop. |
| 3. A new way to help teenagers shop online is to use ______. |
| A. a new machine B. special coins and notes C. prepaid cards D. pay-as-you-go mobile phones |
| 4.What is the passage mainly about? |
| A. Online shopping traps. B. Internet users in the US and the UK. C. New credit cards for parents. D. The arrival of cyber pocket money. |

| Honesty is the best policy, as the English saying goes. Unfortunately, honesty often leaves us when no one is watching, British psychologists reported last week. Researchers at UK's Newcastle University set up an experiment in their psychology department's coffee room. They set a kettle, with tea, coffee and milk on the counter and hung up a sign listing the price for drinks. People helping themselves to a cup of tea were supposed to put a few cents in the box nearby. The scientists hung a poster above the money box, and changed each week between pictures of gazing (注视的) eyes and pictures of flowers. The researchers found that staff paid 2.76 times more for their drinks when the image of the eyes was hung. "We were shocked by the size of the effect," said Gilbert Roberts, one of the researchers. Eyes are known to be a powerful perceptual (知觉的) signal for humans, scientists say. "Even though the eyes were not real, they still seemed to make people behave more honestly," said Melissa Bateson, a behavioral biologist and leader of the study. Researchers believe the effect throws light on our evolutionary(进化的) past. It may arise from behavioral characteristics that developed when early humans formed social groups to increase their chances of survival. For social groups to work, individuals had to co-operate, rather than act selfishly. "There's an argument that if nobody is watching us, it is in our interests to behave selfishly. But when we're being watched we should behave better. So people see us as co-operative and behave the same way towards us," Bateson said. The new finding indicates that people have a striking response to eyes. That might be because eyes and faces send a strong biological signal we have evolved to respond to, Bateson said. The finding could be put to practical use. For example, images of eyes could ensure ticket sales on public transport and improve surveillance(监视) systems to deter antisocial (反社会) behaviour. |
| 1. The story is written mainly to __________. |
| A. warn you to behave honestly whether you are alone or not B. explain the root of cheating in exams with no teachers present C. describe how the experiment in Newcastle University worked D. inform us of a strong reaction that people have to eyes |
| 2. The experiment carried out in Newcastle University made researchers think that _______. |
| A. honesty is not the best policy B. evolution has a big influence on our behavior C. humans have to form social groups to survive D. people are more relaxed when not being watched |
| 3. From the text, we know that ________. |
| A. no one acts selfishly when being watched B. the function of eyes is not only biological but social C. the image of eyes worked as well as the picture of flowers D. a waiter was there serving people drinks in the experiment |

| "Congratulations, Mr. Jones, it's a girl." Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different response from every man who hears these words. Some feel proud when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly. Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is clear that the change from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this resocialization process. Although many books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature referred to the role of a father. It is argued by some writers that the transition (转化) to the father's role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make to the mother's role. The mother's role seems to require a complete transformation in daily life and highly innovative (革新性的) adaptation(适应). On the other hand, the father's role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the family. |
| 1. According to the author, being a father ______. |
| A. brings a feeling of excitement to some men B. makes some men feel proud and others worried C. has a different meaning for those who have daughters D. means nothing but more responsibilities |
| 2. In the third paragraph, the author _______. |
| A. criticizes (批评) fathers for not taking enough responsibilities in bringing up their children B. excuses the American writers for ignoring the difficulties of being a father C. supports the idea that the chief role of a father is to earn money for the family D. complains about the lack of social program to help husbands get used to the role of a father |
| 3. The transition to the mother's role requires that the wife ______. |
| A. change her life style in a highly innovative way B. stay at home to take care of the baby C. make a complete change in her everyday life to deal with the new situation D. help her husband in his resocialization process |
| 4. Some writers argue that with respect of (关于) the change of roles, fathers, compared with mothers, _______. |
| A. have an easier job to do B. have to make more difficult adaptation C. have to shoulder more responsibilities D. can usually do a better job |

| Dr. Glenn Tisman, a cancer specialist, knew his young neighbor, Ray Bateman, had an unusual mind. But he had no idea at the time that 12-year-old Ray had the ability to become his partner in cancer research. Ray' s parents remembered that at age four, Ray surprised them by fixing a broken vacuum cleaner (吸 尘器). When he was ten, he speedily constructed the family color television from a kit.Later, he succeeded in assembling (组装) a complex stereo system after two experts had failed to do the job. When Ray was ten, he convinced his parents to buy him a computer.In a short time, Ray was able to do amazing things with the computer.Ray shared his enthusiasm for computers with Dr. Tisman, who used a computer for his research. The two discussed computers and medicine frequently.Amazingly, Ray understood the biology and chemistry related to Dr. Tisman's medical research without any previous instruction. Ray then worked with Dr. Tisman after school.He helped conduct research with the equipment and kept it in working order.The purpose of the research was to test the effectiveness of mixing an old cancer drug with certain vitamins.Ray analyzed patient test results by computer, while Dr. Tisman handled all patient contact.Together, they came up with solid research that helped advance cancer treatment. In 1988, 14-year-old Ray went with Dr. Tisman to a meeting of the American Federation for Clinical Research (AFCR) , where Ray presented their initial research findings.Using terminology (术语) beyond the grasp of most kids of his age, Ray told the scientists how the new drug mixture caused fewer and milder side effects for cancer patients. A year later, Ray returned to the meeting to update the findings of his and Dr. Tisman' s research. By then, he had become well-known for his devotion to finding cures for sick patients.Stories about him appeared in hundreds of newspapers around the world.He appeared on television newscasts and talk shows. Ray continued to spend most free hours working with Dr. Tisman.The two began studying the effects of vitamins on babies inside the womb.However, Ray' s main interest remained cancer treatment, and he continues his research today. |
