When I was 13, my bedroom walls were covered with posters of the Monkees and Beatles. I wrote fan letters and daydreamed about meeting the objects of my affections. I begged my  parents to attend every rock concert and watch every TV show featuring my favorite celebrities; my friends and I discussed for hours all the things we would say and do when we met our favourite movie stars and pop singers. I drove my mother crazy ! But after a few years, my obsession stars faded as I matured and gained the confidence to socialize with “real” boys.
In the 35 years since I was a teenager, celebrity worship (崇拜) has increased among teens due to the explosion of television celebrity gossip shows, and instant access to celebrity news on the Internet. It’s no wonder that many teens are obsessed with stars when news programs are often filled with entertainment stories and the lives of celebrities.
Celebrity worship syndrome (綜合征) is now considered a personality disorder. While it is normal for teenagers to follow the lives of their favorite stars, parents should try to monitor everything their child finds interesting. Parents should take action if they suspect a teen is too obsessed with celebrities and showing little interest in school or withdrawing from the family.  When teens talk a lot about celebrities and view them as just means of entertainment, this is considered normal celebrity worship. However, when a teenager is obsessed with a star and  often expresses a desire to have a close personal relationship with a celebrity or feels they have a special connection to a star, this may be the time for concern. Recent studies have shown that teens who develop an unhealthy obsession with celebrities often suffer from low self confidence and depression. Teens who are overly obsessed with stars often have damaged relationships with their parents.
【小題1】The first paragraph is intended to tell us________.

A．parents needn’t worry about celebrity worship
B．celebrity worship can cause serious problems
C．it’s normal for a teen to have celebrity worship
D．celebrity worship only exists among teens
【小題2】We can learn from the second paragraph that________.
A．the media greatly contributes to celebrity worship today
B．the author is surprised at celebrity worship
C．teens today are not so obsessed with celebrities
D．celebrities expose their lives too much
【小題3】Parents should become concerned when their children________.
A．talk a lot about celebrities with others
B．put up celebrity posters in their bedrooms
C．a(chǎn)sk to go to their favourite star’s concert
D．desire a close personal relationship with their favorite star
【小題4】The last paragraph implies that________.
A．parents should not care too much about a child’s celebrity worship
B．celebrity worship syndrome can be a serious problem if left overlooked
C．children can normally get out of celebrity worship when they are older
D．children with celebrity worship usually have high opinion of themselves
【小題5】What is most likely to be talked about in the paragraph following the passage?
A．The harm of celebrity worship syndrome.
B．More signs of celebrity worship syndrome.
C．What to do with children’s celebrity worship syndrome.
D．Who will suffer most from celebrity worship syndrome.

Education cuts(削減) have become routine (慣常的) over the past few years, which has made it difficult for students to learn. The results of a survey of 1,850 Los Angeles County high school students show just how much the cuts are affecting students.

Because of teacher layoffs (解雇), class sizes at some high schools have risen to 50 students — even in math and English classes. Some 37 percent of students report that they sometimes don’t have a desk to sit at. Sixty-seven percent say crowded classrooms make them feel the teachers don’t have enough time to teach, and 30 percent say they’ve not been able to join in a program because it’s no longer offered at their school.

At a time when technology is an important skill, 52 percent of students say there aren’t enough computers. Or they’re often broken, and there’s no one to fix them. Fifty-one percent say they’ve had to share textbooks with a classmate because there aren’t enough copies to go around. Fifty-seven percent say they’ve had to copy information because their school doesn’t have enough paper to make copies.

“We have only one science teacher for the entire(整個的) high school,” writes Felix Ruano, a 16-year-old student. He goes on to describe how that teacher, who is only qualified to teach chemistry, is teaching physics — or, at least, is trying to do so. “He shows physics videos and we teach ourselves from our textbook,” says Ruano. And, as has been seen elsewhere, “all but one of the restrooms” at Ruano’s school “have been closed because we don’t have enough people to clean them.”

Ruano notes that though faced with the challenges, 97 percent of students say they plan to go to college. But without “properly trained teachers and the best resources,” says Ruano, it’s not likely that every student will achieve that goal. “Unless schools fix these problems,” he says, “students could lose hope.”

1.According to the text, education cuts have led to the following results EXCEPT that _____.

A．class sizes at some high schools have risen

B．some students don’t have a desk to sit at

C．some students have to share textbooks

D．some students have to leave school

2.The underlined word “qualified” in the fourth paragraph can best be replaced by “_____”.

A．fit               B．willing            C．bored            D．worried

3.According to Ruano, _____.

A．he is good at teaching himself

B．most students plan to go to college

C．his school is going to be closed

D．most students are hopeful about their school

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A．What caused education cuts?              B．Education cuts, right or wrong?

C．Education cuts have hurt students           D．How to deal with education cuts

Lexi Peters, a 14-year-old girl in New York, loves hockey. She’s not only good at playing on her after-school team, but also at playing hockey video games. But when Peters played the popular NHL (National Hockey League) games made by Electronic Arts, something really bothered her. The virtual (虛擬的) character in the game could only be a boy — not a girl.

She didn’t think that was reasonable. There must be many girls playing hockey in the US. So she wrote a letter to Electronic Arts.

“Being represented by a man is unfair to women and girl hockey players,” Peters wrote. “Women’s hockey is a fast-growing sport. I am confident that I’m not the only woman interested in the opportunity to create herself in the game.”

Several weeks later, Peters received an unexpected e-mail from the senior producer for EA Sports’ NHL games, David Littman. “Hi, Lexi,” the e-mail began. “We agree with you!”

Electronic Arts said it would create a female player in the game. “I was thinking you could be the model,” Littman wrote. Peters almost couldn’t believe it. Later, she sent photos of herself taken at all different angles (角度).

And so, when Electronic Arts released the newest version of their game, NHL 12, this fall, Peters was the face of the female player. She can now skate with the NHL’s great players. “It’s strange at first, but you get used to it,” said Peters. “It’s really funny and cool.”

For Peters, there is also an important lesson that she will take with her the rest of her life. “If you have something to say, and you think it’s important, go for it!” she said.

1.What bothered Peters when playing NHL games?

A．There was no girl character in the game.

B．The characters were not real at all.

C．No girls would like to play the game.

D．It was not like playing real hockey games.

2.According to Peters’ letter, we can know that ________.

A．girls were not allowed to play hockey in the past

B．female players can be represented by men

C．boys don’t like to play hockey with girls

D．more and more girls are interested in hockey

3.What was David Littman’s opinion of Peters’ letter?

A．He ignored it.                          B．He disliked it.

C．He agreed to it.                         D．He voted against it.

4.Peters’ experience tells us that we should ________.

A．enjoy the fun of being a model

B．do what you think important to do

C．work hard to get used to any new situation

D．think about problems from different angles
