B
Capturing the Memories
Almost everyone has heard of MySpace.com.It allows friends to connect with each other.But did you ever wonder where the idea for this website came from? It is modeled after high school yearbooks.
A yearbook is a book used to record memories of a specific class.For example,I graduated from Manchester West High School in 2001.My yearbook is dedicated(獻給) to my senior class.In this book you will find a picture of all my classmates.
Alongside your picture,you can put a quote that is important to you.Next to the quote and your photo is a list of your school and sports activities.Later in the book are pages dedicated to teams and organizations.For example,the girls football team has a page of pictures and memories.
After you receice the yearbook,you go around and have your friends sign it and write letters to you.This will remind you about the many adventures you had with your friends. Although, 40 years ago,a girl wrote a loving message in my father's yearbook but when he showed me it,he didn't remember who the girl was!
But the yearbook is the final memory for seniors,so it will often be the one reminder of your high school years that you carry with you throughout life.In my mother's yearbook she still has,pressed between the pages,the flower her date gave her at her senior prom. That was in 1967.
High school is a magical time.It is when we experience many of the important moments of your lives.Our first kiss.Driving for the first time.Our first big success.Out first major hearbreak.Unlike MySpace,which can constantly be updated,a yearbook captures these special moments in our lives and holds on to them forever so that we may never forget.Because,honestly , we will never want to.
60.What does the passage mainly focus on?
A.The characteristics of MySpace.com.
B.The members who set up MySpace.com.
C.The differences between MySpace.com and a yearbook.
D.The introduction to yearbooks.

Teens’ lives hit by economy
Some teenagers are crossing their dream colleges off their lists. Others are thinking of skipping(略過)their senior trips or reducing prom(畢業(yè)舞會)costs. Many are finding their work hours cut while their expenses rise.
So, who exactly is punishing them?Is it their parents, teachers or employers?No, it’s the economy(經(jīng)濟狀況).
If you are like most teenagers, you probably don’t understand what “recession”, “negative economic growth” and “subprime mortgage crisis (次貸危機)”actually mean. And you probably don’t spend your days watching the ups and downs of the stock market.
It’s safe to say that most teens don’t know much about the economy except for one thing:it’s bad. But just how exactly is the economy affecting teens?
“The single largest thing I have noticed is the recession’s ability to affect my college choice, “said Heather Richars from Downey High School in California, US. “With the economic situation the way it is, I have thought less about going to a private or out-of-state university, and more about public schools in California, mainly because of the price of tuition, “said Richars. “I had been a fan of attending a private school up until this year.”
The economy cuts into other areas of teenagers’ lives, too.
Joey Camarda, a student at Modesto High School in California, who works at an ice cream store, said,“ Probably due to the economy, I have been getting less hours at my job, and because of that, I am not getting enough money to help pay for college.”
Tara Mooney, a senior at Beyer High School, has also begun to notice that money is tight.
“Things are getting expensive,” she said. “When it comes to applying for colleges and wanting to go on senior trips, I have to pick and choose instead of doing it all.”
【小題1】The purpose of writing the passage is mainly to tell us ________.
A.the economic recession has had a big effect on teens’ work, life and study |
B.teenagers are now having difficulty in deciding which colleges to apply for |
C.teenagers don’t know much about the economic recession |
D.teenagers are considering giving up their senior trips to save money |
A.go to a private university |
B.a(chǎn)ttend an out-of-state college |
C.a(chǎn)ttend a public college in California |
D.find a good university as he planned |
A.He has to find more part-time jobs. |
B.He has to help his mother do more chores. |
C.He has found that he had more time to study. |
D.His plan to pay for college will be hard to realize. |
A.Parents punish their teens by giving them less money. |
B.Most teens understand what negative economic growth means. |
C.Teenagers are finding it harder to do what they want than before. |
