However, social changes that are brought about by new technology are often mistaken for a change in attitudes。An example at hand is the

24、involvement of parents in the lives of their children who are attending college。 Surveys （调查） on this topic suggest that parents today continue to be “very” or “somewhat” tective even after their children move into college dormitories。 The same surveys also indicate that the rate of parental involve

25、ment is greater today than it was a generation ago。 This is usually interpreted as a sign that todays parents are trying to manage their childrens lives past the point where this behavior is appropriate.However, greater parental involvement does not necessarily indicate that parents are failing to l

26、et go of their “adult” children.In the context (背景） of this discussion， it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents involvement with their grown children。 If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college。age children frequently, would

27、this have been possible？ Probably not。 On the other hand, does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the urge to do so wasnt present a generation ago？ Many studies show that older parentstodays grandparents-would have called their children more often if the means and cost of doin

28、g so had not been a barrier.Furthermore， studies show that finances are the most frequent subject of communication between parents and their college children. The fact that college students are financially dependent on their parents is nothing new; nor are requests for more money to be sent from hom

29、e。 This phenomenon is neither good nor bad； it is a fact of college life，today and in the past.Thanks to the advanced technology, we live in an age of bettered communication。 This has many implications well beyond the role that parents seem to play in the lives of their children who have left for co

30、llege。 But it is useful to bear in mind that all such changes come from the technology and not some imagined desire by parents to keep their children under their wings。本文为议论文.文章首先提出了论点：是技术的改变还是态度的改变？然后通过具体的事例说明父母对孩子保护过度不只是因为他们不放心孩子，更是由于现在通信技术的便捷.21The surveys inform us of _。Athe development of techn

32、ges of new technology outweigh its advantagesCtechnology explains greater parental involvement with their childrenDparents changed attitudes lead to college childrens delayed independence答案：C解析：推理判断题。根据第四段内容可以推断出，作者认为，现在的父母们之所以更多地参与孩子们的生活，原因之一是现在通信技术和工具的发达。23What is the best title for the passage?AT

33、echnology or AttitudeBDependence or IndependenceCFamily Influences or Social ChangesDCollege Management or Communication Advancement答案：A解析：主旨大意题。文章第一段最后一句就点题：新技术带来的社会变化经常被误认为是态度的转变。因此A项最具概括性。BElderly people who drink several cups of green tea a day are less likely to suffer from depression, probably

34、 due to a “feel good” chemical found in this type of tea， Japanese researchers said。Several studies have linked drinking green tea to lessening psychological problems。 Dr Kaijun Niu of Tohoku University Graduate School and his colleagues found men and women aged 70 and older who drank four or more c

35、ups of green tea daily were 44 percent less likely to have symptoms of depression。 Green tea is widely consumed in many Asian countries, including China and Japan.Nius team investigated 1，058 relatively healthy elderly men and women. About 34 percent of the men and 39 percent of the women had sympto

36、ms of depression，according to the study that was published in the December issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. A total of 488 participants said they drank four or more cups of green tea a day, 284 said they drank two to three cups daily and the rest reported having one cup daily.Acc

37、ording to the researchers， the apparent effect of drinking more green tea on reducing symptoms of depression did not fade after they factored in social and economic status， gender， diet, history of medical problems and use of antidepressants (抗抑郁药）. By contrast， there was no association between cons

38、umption of black or oolong tea （乌龙茶）, or coffee, and lower symptoms of depression。A green tea ingredient, the amino acid theanine （茶氨酸)， which is thought to have a calming effect on the brain， may explain the “potentially beneficial effect shown in the current study， Niu explained。 However, further

39、studies are needed to confirm whether greater green tea intake actually has antidepressant effects。本文主要说明绿茶可以减少抑郁。老年人每天喝四杯或四杯以上的绿茶有助于降低患抑郁症的风险。24Whats the main idea of the passage?AGreen tea may reduce depression.BGreen tea is popular with Asians。CHow to prevent from depression.DThe profits of drink

The survey asked parents twenty questions about when their children were first exposed to mobile me

44、dia devices. What makes everyone so alarmed is that the study found that children are being exposed to mobile devices earlier than ever before。But before we all jump on the judgment train, lets stop and think about how much more ubiquitous smartphones are now than they were even five years ago。 Its

45、not that parents have gotten lazier， which some reporters have suggested。 Its that more parents have access to smartphones，devices that they can use to show family pictures to entertain a baby or play music that a toddler can dance with。What the study didnt address was how much time these babies are

46、 spending looking at smartphones. Nor did it assess what these babies are looking at。 Is it five minutes of music in the grocery store while Mom or Dad gets the food into the cart？ Or is it 30 minutes of watching videos while a parent sacks out on the couch? There is a big difference between the two

47、 scenarios (场景)By the numbers, the study found that among babies younger than 1 year old， 52 percent had watched television on mobile devices， 36 percent had been allowed to scroll the screen, 15 percent had used apps and 12 percent had played video games。 Around 25 percent of kids had already calle

49、any occasions when I would have gladly handed over my phone to play music or a video or even a video game if it would have calmed a screaming baby。 They would have turned out just fine。研究表明，孩子使用手机的年龄大大提前，作者分析了造成这种情况的原因。在作者看来，孩子们在适当的时候使用手机没什么问题。28What would be the answer to one of the questions accor

51、见，问题的答案是“有些孩子很早就使用手机”。29What does the underlined word “ubiquitous mean?Aunique BuncommonCnonexistent Duniversal答案：D解析：根据句意手机比5年前普遍多了，故选D。30Two questions are asked in Paragraph 3 in order to tell us _。Ababies can use smartphones as they likeBwatching videos is interesting for babiesCit doesnt matter

52、what babies are looking atDusing smartphones too long is improper for babies答案:D解析：推理判断题。两个场景的差异就是时间的差异，由此可以推知，长时间地使用手机对孩子们来说不合适。31Which of the following does the author agree with about the babies under 1 year old？ANearly half of them had used apps on smartphones。BHalf of them had watched televisio

56、 the person looks cool, the product seems cool， too. This is the secret of undercover marketing. Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to use it。Undercover marketing is important because it reaches people that dont pay attention to traditional advertising. This is particularly true of the MTV gen

57、eration-consumers between the ages of 18 and 34. Its a golden group. They have a lot of money to spend，but they dont trust ads.So advertising agencies hire young actors to “perform” in bars and other places where young adults go. Some people might call this practice misleading， but marketing executi

58、ve Jonathan Ressler calls it creative. “Look at traditional advertising. Its effectiveness is decreasing。” It is true, because everyone knows an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something。 However, you dont know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.本文主要讲述了商家雇请广告员工来吸引顾客的新的广告模式und
