Iphones may be the most popular mobiles in the world now. Not only do adults use them, but little children also like them.
Natasha Shykes is a mother of two kids in America. When her daughter, Kelsey, was only two years old, she became interested in her father’s iphone. “She pressed the button (按鈕) and the phone lit up. It seemed to be amazing for her,” said Natasha. “Then she got serious about the phone. She always cried for it. It seemed that she also wanted an iphone.”
Iphones are easy to use. So it is not difficult for little children to use them. Many applications (應(yīng)用軟件) on iphones are designed for children who are too young to go to school. For example, children can learn more about the animals in the world by watching the videos on the phones.
However, parents are very worried about this. They don’t know whether they should buy their children iphones or not. There are two main reasons. One is that they are afraid that children may destroy the iphones. Another reason is that they are not sure whether iphones can really be used as educational tools.
【小題1】Natasha’s daughter felt very ___________ the iphone.
A. afraid of               B. surprised at            C. interested in   
【小題2】The underlined words “l(fā)it up” mean “___________” in Chinese.
A. 點(diǎn)燃                B. 發(fā)出響聲                 C. 點(diǎn)亮
【小題3】The third paragraph mainly tells us__________.
A. iphones are difficult for adults to use.
B. Many children can’t use iphones because they are too young.
C. Parents can do many things on the iphones.
【小題4】Parents are worried about the iphones because________.
A. their children may destroy the iphones.

Anyone who has ever traveled with a teenager knows that the teenager can make the vacation good or bad for the entire family. As a travel agent, Lynda Maxwell said, “If teenagers are happy, everybody is happy.”
Teenagers are often interested in travelling, but their interests and schedules often aren’t the same as their parents’. It means that when the parents start to look for a place of interest in the early morning, their teenagers may be sleeping soundly!
The thing makes travelling with teenagers very difficult, but it isn’t impossible. The experts said, “The keys to success is what parents do before they travel.”
For many families, the hardest part may be finding a vacation time that is right for everyone. Be sure to sit down with everyone else in the family before setting a date.
“After setting a date, ask teenagers where they would choose to go,” suggested Maxwell. It is possible that they’d like nothing more than to sit on a beach for a week. “Maybe there’s a compromise(折中),” said Maxwell.
“Most teenagers like using the Internet now, so parents can ask them to think up the ideas about what to see and do,” said Brad Anderson. “I find teenagers are excellent at making great suggestions.”
【小題1】The main problem of travelling with teenagers is that______.

A．they are always causing problems
B．there’s no way to make them happy
C．they don’t want to travel with their parents
D．their interests and schedules are different from their parents’
【小題2】Maxwell thinks that     .
A．teenagers are good at making suggestions
B．parents should discuss the travel plan with their teenagers

Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.   【小題1】  Most people read only the sports pages, the advice or the gossip（閑話，緋聞）columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements.
Most people don't take the time to read the real news.     【小題2】  These techniques（技術(shù)，手段）are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper.     【小題3】    If the headline is horrible（恐懼的）enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will go on to read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore.   【小題4】  
More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper?  【小題5】  Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?

When I crossed a small road on my first day in Kolkata, I was surprised because I heard a bell-not a horn (喇叭). It was a tiny man pulling a rickshaw(人力黃包車).He stopped and picked up two children from the front door of their house and pulled them to school. For many people, the rickshaw in Kolkata has many advantages. When the traffic is bad, rickshaws find a way through the traffic. If your miss your bus and there aren't any taxis, you can always find a rickshaw in Kolkata. Rickshaws are from your house to the market and waits for you. Then he loads (裝載)all your things, drops you off outside your home and helps you unload. No other type of public transport offers this kind of service.
From June to September, Kolkata gets heavy rain. Sometimes it rains for 48 hours without a break. In some parts of the city, the roads flood (水淹), and anything with an engine(發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)) is useless. But the rickshaw drivers never stop working, even with water all around them.
But not everyone thinks rickshaws are a good thing. The local government want to ban rickshaws. They believe it is wrong for one man to pull another person when there is modern transport in the city. However, there is a problemwith this plan. Many of the rickshaw drivers come from the countryside. The only job they can find in Kolkata is pulling a rickshaw. If the city bans rickshaws, these men won't have a job. So for the moment, the people of Kolkata still go by rickshaw.

B．Parents need rickshaws for taking children to school in Kolkata.
