10、ilies are online, and over half of their members about 25 million people may qualify as compulsive surfers. So, is “Internet Addiction” a new psychological phenomenon? In a study published recently in the Journal of Affective Disorders, researchers from the University of Florida (UF) and the Univers

11、ity of Cincinnati examined the habits of 20 people who had spent more than 30 nonworking hours a week online for the past three years. The participants described skipping sleep, ignoring family responsibilities, and showing up late for work to fulfill their desire to visit chat rooms and surf the We

12、b. The consequences were severe: Many suffered from marital problems, failed in school or lost a job, and accumulated debt. The evidence points to a psychological disorder, so researchers probed further and found that the participants habits met the criteria for impulse control disorders, mental ill

13、nesses characterized by an uncontrollable desire to perform a behavior that once executed, is often followed by a huge sense of relief. Most of the participants had a history of additional psychiatric problems like eating disorders and manic(狂躁的) depression.Despite their apparent sufferings, the stu

14、dys participants were not easily identifiable, says Nathan Shapira, Ph.D., a UF assistant psychiatry professor and co-author of the study. “These people were intelligent, well-respected community members,” he says. “They were like your next-door neighborwho just lost control.”Given the confounding (

15、使混淆) nature of the participants various symptoms, Shapira believes the essential issue remains: Is Internet “addiction” a distinct disorder or a symptom of another well-defined disorder? “Its too early to know,” he says. “But my sense is that this problem is going to get worse as the size and speed

Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Youth is a time whe

21、n there are few tasks to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the chi

22、ldthings that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.When the young man starts to earn his own livi

23、ng, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws

24、of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he words hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.11.

28、en young people and their elders. Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Man

29、y people argue that it is built into every part of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to m

30、arry people that their parents know and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose jobs different from thos

31、e of their parents.In our society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another cause of the gap between them. Often, they discover that they have very little in co

32、mmon with each other.Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is the third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. The young and the o

33、ld seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities. No doubt, the generation gap will continue in American life for some time to come.16. The first paragraph tells us that _. A. the problem of the generation gap draws much attention from people B. it is out of

Parents expect too much of their children.20. The main idea of the passage is _. A. that the generation gap needs consideri

37、ng B. when the generation gap is necessary in American society C. why the generation gap exists D. how we can reduce the generation gap Passage FiveFor a long time women with HIV were ignored because the focus was totally on HIV men. The gay community was very much in sight and vocal (呼声高的) and succ

38、essfully got support for its cause. Now we are rapidly approaching the point where about one half of all AIDS cases in the world are women. But no one is taking this dangerously high level of infection among women seriously enough.Women usually have a worse time dealing with HIV than men do. In most

39、 cases, the woman is taking care of children as well as her sick partner. She may not even have time to take care of herself. The HIV-positive woman ends up shouldering the family as well as her own personal problems. Men, however, are usually the ones who have insurance(保险), income and access to do

40、ctors. They get care. Women often do not.The discrimination (歧视) against HIV-positive women is simply terrible. They are likely to be more inactive than men in the home and workplace because too many people think that women are the cause of the disease. This is not at all true. They get it from a ma

41、n. They dont just simply have HIV. Of course, theres a social discrimination against all people with HIV. They are scared that other people will know they are HIV-positive and that they will, therefore, be discriminated against. For example, it's very difficult for people with HIV to travel. The

42、y are not allowed to enter many countries, including the United States, China and Russia.The biggest difficulty an HIV-positive woman must face is the isolation (孤立). Once the woman knows shes HIV-positive, she lives in fear that other people will find out. She' s so frightened she will go into

43、hiding, into an isolated place by herself. It's not at all uncommon to meet a woman who has been HIV-positive for nearly 10 years and has never told anyone, except her doctor. And the resulting stress is enough to make her sick. But HIV-positive women who get support, who can discuss their troub

44、le and then do something about it -whether that means taking better care of themselves or going to the United Nations to struggle for their rights - are likely to live longer. Active women don't die out of shame in a corner. This happens to too many HIV-positive women.21 . Women with HIV were ig

45、nored for a long time because_.
