17、n Canada, researchers found Internet addiction caused people to spend 40 hours or more a week online. Most of them often got involved in role-playing games or chat room discussion. One 17-year-old boy was so addicted to the Internet activities that his parents had to admit him to a hospital for 10 d

18、ays treatment.One woman was described by friends and family as a perfect wife and mother. She became so addicted to the Internet that she would not cook or clean and was neglecting her children and husband, because she was spending as much as 12 hours a day talking to people on the Internet. Finally

20、标准) for addicted Internet users, 157 were men, 239 women. The men were younger with an average age of 29, the women average 43 years of age.

24、is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people: as we get older, many of us will become le

25、ss mobile, hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Som

26、e people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people s attitude towards them.Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or go to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if y

27、ou could not get up steps, or on to buses or trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almo

28、st impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, that counts.46 The first paragraph points out that_.（A）there are many

29、 disabled people in the world（B） the number of disabled people in India is the biggest（C） India has many more disabled people than Canada（D）it is easy to get an exact number of the world s disabled people47 The last paragraph focuses on_.（A）disability（B） ignorance（C） prejudice（D）barriers48 The last

32、ntal barriers are hard to break down（C） we should take a proper attitude towards the disabled（D）the able-bodied will fully understand the disabled50 For many people, having your own business sounds like a perfect job. You can do work that you love. You can set your own business schedule and wear jea

33、ns to work. You never have to listen to a boss, and you make all the decisions yourself. You can even raise your salary any time you want.But the reality is different. “ Having your own business can be lonely,“ says David Paik. After working for an advertising agency for six years, he started a webs

34、ite design business at home. His first income in the first two months was $ 0. Finally, he got a big project creating a website for a magazine. Then he had a new problem: his schedule. “I was working twelve hours a day, seven days a week, because I didn t have employees to help me.“ Today, Paik Web

35、Design is successful, but David says, “ I really wasn t prepared to be a business owner. I didn t understand the challenges. “Some of the challenges are practical. With no boss, it s easy to take too much time off and get too little work done. With no co-workers, you might feel bored or lonely. You

36、have to pay for your own benefits like vacations, insurance, and, a retirement plan. And if you make a bad business decision, you could lose all the money you invested. For all of the reasons, more than half of all new businesses fail within one year.Another problem is balancing work with personal l

37、ife. As a business owner, you cant just stop at 5 p. m. and forget about your work until tomorrow. “ Even when I m watching TV in the evening, I m always thinking about my clients and my projects,“ says David Paik.Still, hundreds of people around the world start business every day, and most enjoy th

38、e experience. “There are lots of advantages to having your own business,“ says Denise Williams, the owner of a women s clothing store. “ You can decide exactly how to do your work, how much money you want to make, and who will work for you. “ Williams borrowed money from family members to get her bu

39、siness started. She began by making and selling T-shirts in her apartment, and she has just opened a new, large store.Laura Castro, owner of a translation service, agrees. “ When you are your own boss, there are no limits. I started five years ago, translating Spanish and English. Now I have employe

40、es who work with six different languages. And five years from now? I can t imagine!“ she smiles.51 According to David Paik, being your own boss is_.（A）enjoyable（B） perfect（C） challenging（D）easy52 One of the advantages of being a business owner is_.（A）making your own decisions（B） being free most of t

41、ime（C） working at home（D）having employees to help53 In the sentence “Some of the challenges are practical“ , “practical“ means_.（A）difficult（B） clear（C） complicated（D）realistic54 According to the passage, more than 50% of all the new business fail within one year because of_.（A）no boss（B） no co-work

42、ers（C） bad decisions making（D）all of above55 Which of the following statements is TRUE?（A）You can get higher salaries if you are your own boss.（B） Life can be hard if you run your own business.（C） There is no advantages of being a business owner.（D）All who run their own business enjoy their experien

43、ce.55 In your car you may have a cell phone, a telephone also known as a mobile phone that you can carry around and use anywhere. On your way, you may feel coordinated and enjoy your hands-free phone talking while driving. But recent studies suggest that it isn t the dialing or the arm waving that m

44、akes driving while talking on a cell phone dangerous. It is the yakking itselfor more precisely, the continuous conversation with someone who isn t presentthat makes. David Strayer, a Utah psychologist, says “Your driving performance while talking on a cell phone is weakened at levels comparable to,

45、 or worse than, driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08,“ which is the legal limit in most states of America.Using a driving-training simulator, Strayer and his colleagues compared the attention levels and response time of 110 drivers in various situations. In dense traffic, cell phone users were

46、 about 20 percent slower to respond to sudden hazards than other drivers, and they were about twice as likely to drive into the back of a braking car in front of them. “ Cell phone drivers are obtaining less than 50 percent of the visual information that non-cell drivers are getting,“ says Strayer.

47、“ Looking and seeing are not one and the same. “ By contrast, the researchers found that listening to the radio or conversing with passengers is not as hazardous. “When a dangerous situation arises, the driver and passengers put their conversation on pause,“ Strayer says.Whether talking with a passe

48、nger or someone on a cell phone, however, people are less able to recall the details of a conversation carried on while driving. “ So it might not be good for your economic health to discuss investment strategies with your agent while either of you is driving. “ Strayer adds lastly.56 According to the recent studies, which of the following makes driving dangerous?（A）A cell phone dialing by the driver.（B） The driver s endless arm waving.（C） The driver s continuous cell phone talking.（D）The absence of another phone speaker.57 Which of the following does Strayer want to stress mo
