Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in her life, she might go home and write in her diary. Now, a teenager with        problems might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog (博客). In many ways, a diary and a blog are very        .So, what makes blogging different from writing in     diary?
The biggest difference is that blogging is much more       than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats her diary like a book full of        that she does not want to      .
It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog      a diary will probably write nearly the same information. I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her          . She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test.        I was at her age, I wrote about the same things, but      in my diary. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was        that my sister might read it!
The biggest      with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something      about her in my diary, she would never know.        , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend        read her blog and get angry.
There are also      to blogging, of course. If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary, “Nobody cares about me.”        would know about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would      respond and tell her how much they        her. Blogs help people stay in      with their friends and to hear what the people around them are doing.

试题分析:本文是叙述加说明类文章。目前上网写“博客”成为一种时髦,那么什么是博客呢?文章作者通过自己的体会以及自己妹妹的例子说明“博客”—即网络日记—与传统日记的相似之处和区别。
小题1:A 形容词辨析。A同样的;B麻烦的;C困难的;D日常的,每天的;此处强调“博客”与传统日记的内容是一样的。故使用the same,表示这两者之间的相似性。后面会讲述两者之间的区别。
小题2: C 形容词辨析。A熟悉的;B特别的;C相似的;D不同的。本题考察的是上下文串联,与后文形成对比,首先说明“博客”与日记的相似之处。
小题3:D 词义辨析。A个人的;B普通的;C常见的;D传统的;作者强调的是“传统的”日记。dated“过时的”,显然不合乎现实情况;personal“个人的”,修饰日记,没有必要。
小题4: B 形容词辨析。A吸引人的;B公开的;C方便的,便利的;D快的,迅速的; 通过下文内容可知,“博客”与日记最大的区别在于它的“公开性”,任何人都可能看到。
小题5:D 名词辨析。A思维,想法;B困惑,迷惑;C谜;D秘密;根据文章所提供的上下文对比的逻辑以及常识判断可知,日记记录的都是个人的“秘密”。
小题6: B 动词辨析。A告诉;B分享;C印刷,出版;D解决;既然是秘密,就不想跟人“分享”。日记不一定会出版,因此不选publish。
小题7: A 介词辨析。A代替,而不是;B和,同,也,并;C支持,赞成;D不关,尽管; 此处强调的是写“博客”的人,而不是写日记的人的情况。
小题8: A 上下文串联。A博客;B日记;C报告;D网页; 从上下文看,作者的妹妹喜欢写“博客”,很多思维都喜欢在博客上倾述。
小题9:C 连词辨析。A尽管;B既然,自从;C当..时;D因为;when引导时间状语从句,作者说明当自己和妹妹一样大时往往写日记。

小题11: D 形容词辨析。A生气的,愤怒的;B绝望的;C开心的,高兴的;D担心的; 作者把日记藏起来,“担心”会被别人看见,被别人看见以后会影响相互之间的关系。
小题12: A 上下文串联。A问题;B怀疑;C麻烦;D错误;从后面的内容看,“博客”的内容会被别人看到,具有公平性。如果说了别人的坏话会伤害别人的感情,因此此处介绍的是“博客”的“问题”。
小题13:C 形容词辨析。A困难的;B错误的;C刻薄的,恶意的;D滑稽的; 从后面伤害别人的感情看,此处说的是别人的坏话,mean在此处作形容词,意思是“恶意的”。
小题14:B 副词辨析。A而且;B然而;C因此;D那么;接着; 此处说明的是“博客”与日记的不同,因此上下文形成转折关系。
小题15:D 情态动词辨析。A应该;B将要;C必须;D也许; 在“博客”上发布攻击别人的言论,这个人“或许会”看到。但是不可能“一定会”看到,因此must,will不符合文意。
小题16:D 名词辨析。A理由;B劣势;C缺点;优势,好处;前面说明了“博客”的问题,这儿再介绍“博客”的好处。
小题17:B 词义辨析。A所有人;B没有人;C任何人;D某个人;在日记上写了什么东西,别人不会看到,因此选no one。
小题18:C 副词辨析。A开心地;B尤其,特别;C迅速地;D立刻,马上; 在“博客”上写上同样的东西,最好的朋友很快就会看到。选immediately不符合逻辑。
小题19: A 上下文串联。此处指来自于最好的朋友的安慰,与前文“没人关心我”相呼应。朋友的喜欢就是“关心”。“思念”不符合文章前后逻辑。如果选“需要”则把关系颠倒了。
小题20: B 固定搭配 “博客”最大的好处在于使人们时刻保持着联系。stay in contact with sb.=" keep" in touch with sb.“与某人保持联系”

举一反三
Travel Unaccompanied
Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.
Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.
In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen. It is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone.It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.
Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year.He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old.
Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”, which “makes you a more confident person that was ready to deal with anything”. He said: “The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”
The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said: “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”
小题1:Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?
A.Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.
B.It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.
C.It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.
D.Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.
小题2:Traveling alone is challenging because        .
A.it will finally build your character
B.you have to make things on your own
C.you depend on yourself whatever happens
D.it is hard for you to prove yourself to others
小题3:What can we infer about Chris Richardson?
A.He started traveling at an early age.B.He was once shot in the arm.
C.His website inspires others a lot.D.He used to work as a salesman.

Are you carrying too much on your back at school? I’m sure lots of children of your age will say “Yes”. Not only the students in China have this problem, but children in the United States also have heavy school bags.
Doctors are starting to worry that younger and younger students are having back and neck problems as a result of school bags being too heavy for them.
“It’s hard for me to go upstairs with my bag because it’s so heavy,” said Rick Hammond, an 11-year-old student it the US.
Rick is among students who have common school bags with two straps(带子)to carry them, but many other students choose rolling(有滚轮的)bags.
But even with rolling bags, getting up stairs and buses is still a problem for children. Many of them have hurt their backs and necks because of the heavy school bags.
But how much is too much? Doctors say students should carry no more than 10% to 15% of their own body weight(重量).
Scott Batch, a back doctor, said children under Grade 4 should stay with 10%. But it is also important that older children don’t stay with over 15%, because their bodies are still growing.“
Children are losing their balance(平衡)and falling down with their school bags,” he said.
Parents and teachers are starting to tell children to only take home library books they will be reading that night. Some teachers are using pieces of paper or thin workbooks for students to take home.
One of the best answers is, as some children said, to have no homework at all!
小题1:From the passage we can know that     .

I once had a house guest from Cuba. During his visit, I happened to throw an old broken blender (搅拌机) in the trash. The next day it was sitting on my counter – in working order. In his world, people simply cannot afford to replace an item which doesn"t work properly. They take the time and figure out how to fix it. In Cuba, they are still driving cars from the 1960’s, mainly because they do not have a choice. 
In contrast, the U.S. is a “throw-away society.” Statistics show that each American produces six pounds of trash per day. I believe a combination of factors has contributed to this phenomenon.
“Planned obsolescence(废弃)” is not a secret. It is a manufacturing (制造业) philosophy developed in the 1920’s and 1930’s, when mass production became popular. The goal is to make a product or part that will fail, or become less desirable over time or after a certain amount of use. This pressures the consumer to buy again. 
Planned obsolescence does keep costs down. Instead of making an expensive product that will last a long time, businesses produce more affordable, disposable(一次性的) items. Some electronic items have become so inexpensive that it is cheaper to replace them than to repair them.
Busy people often value their time and convenience more than money. If a car starts to have mechanical problems, replacing it with a newer, more reliable model may be more appealing than tolerating it being in the garage for a week.
In addition, advertising trains consumers to want what is new and improved. It convinces them that the more they have, the happier they will be. 
Unlike people in many developing countries, we live in a world of abundance. A study by Dr. Timothy Jones of the University of Arizona also found that in the U.S., 40-50 percent of all food ready for harvest is wasted. Abundance and waste soon became closely associated in the American way of life.
小题1:In Cuba, people usually fix a broken item instead of buying a new one because __________.
A.wasting is prohibited thereB.they are poor
C.they are interested in fixing thingsD.they live a low-carbon life
小题2:According to the article, planned obsolescence ___________.
A.began before mass production became popular
B.is intended to encourage consumers to buy more things
C.results in higher prices of items
D.requires factories to produce high-quality products
小题3:Which of the following is NOT true about the “throw-away society” in the U.S.?
A.People prefer to buy a new blender rather than repair the broken one.
B.A large quantity of food has been wasted.
C.People believe that the more they have, the happier they will be.
D.People all hold the belief that money comes first.
小题4:What may be the writer’s attitude towards a throw-away society?
A.Supportive.B.Critical.C.Tolerant.D.Optimistic.

I have always known my kids use digital communications equipment a lot. But my cellphone bill last month really grabbed my attention. My son had come up to nearly 2,000 incoming text messages, and had sent nearly as many. Of course, he was out of school for the summer and communicating more with friends from a distance. Nevertheless, he found time to keep a summer job and complete a college course in between all that typing with thumb.
I was even more surprised to learn that my son is normal. "Teenagers with cellphones each send and receive 2,272 text messages a month on average, " Nielsen Mobile said.
Some experts regret  that all  that  keyboard jabber(键盘闲聊) is making our  kids stupid, unable to read non-verbal cues such as facial expressions, gestures, posture and other silent signals of mood and attitude. Unlike phones, text messaging doesn"t even allow transmission of tone of voice or pauses, says Mark Bauerlein, author called The Dumbest Generation: How the Digital Age Stupefies Young Americans and Jeopardizes Our Future.
Beyond that,  though,  I"m not sure I see as much harm as critics of this trend.  I" ve posted before on how I initially tried to control my kids" texting. But over time, I have seen my son suffer no apparent ill effects, and he gains a big benefit, continuing contact with others.
I don"t think texting make kids stupid. It may make them annoying, when they try to text and talk to you at the same time. And it may make them distracted. when buzzing text message interrupt efforts to noodle out a math problem or finish reading for school.
But I don"t see texting harming teens" ability to communicate. My son is as accustomed to nonverbal cues as any older members of our family. I have found him more engaged and easier to communicate with from a great distance. because he is constantly available by means of text  message and responds with faithfulness and speed.
小题1:What is Mark Bauerlein " s attitude to texting?
A.It is convenient for teens to communicate with others.
B.It is likely to cause trouble in understanding each other.
C.It is convenient for teens to text and call at the same time.
D.It will cause damage to the development of teens" intelligence.
小题2:What would be the best title for this passage?
A.For Teens, Texting Instead of Talking
B.For Parents, Caring Much for Their Kids
C.Disadvantages of Texting
D.The Effect of Communication
小题3:What does the underlined word "distracted" in the fifth paragraph mean?
A.Confused.B.Absent-minded.
C.Comfortable.D.Bad-tempered.
小题4: The author"s attitude to texting is ___________ .
A.objectiveB.opposedC.supportiveD.doubtful
小题5:According to the passage,  which of the statements is NOT true?
A.It is normal for a teen to send or receive 60 text messages per day.
B.Texting is a very popular way of communication among teens.

D.When texting, teens don"t mind talking with you.

Until the 1980s, the American homeless population is mainly made up of older males. Today, homelessness strikes much younger part of society. In fact, a 25-city survey by the U. S. Conference of Mayors in 1987 found that families with children make up the fastest growing part of the homeless population. Many homeless children gather in inner cities; this transient(变化无常的) and frequently frightened student population creates additional problems — both legal and educational — for already overburdened urban school administrators and teachers.
Estimates of the number of homeless Americans range from 350,000 to three million. Likewise, estimates of the number of homeless school children vary radically. A U.S. Department of Education report, based on state estimates, states that there are 220,000 homeless school-age children, about a third of whom do not attend school on a regular basis. But the National Coalition for the Homeless estimates that there are at least two times as many homeless children, and that less than half of them attend school regularly.
One part of the homeless population that is particularly difficult to count consists of the “throwaway” youths who have been cast of their homes. The Elementary School Center in New York City estimates that there are 1.5 million of them, many of whom are not treated as children because they do not stay in family shelters and tend to live by themselves on the streets.
Federal law, the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987, includes a section that addresses the educational needs of homeless children. The educational provisions(规定) of the McKinney Act are based on the belief that all homeless children have the right to a free, appropriate education.
小题1:It is implied in the first paragraph that ____.
A.the writer himself is homeless, even in his eighties
B.many older homeless residents are going on strike in 25 cities
C.there is a serious shortage of academic facilities
D.homeless children are denied the opportunity of receiving free education
小题2:The National Coalition for the homeless believes that the number of homeless children is _____.
A.350,000B.1,500,000C.440,000D.110,000
小题3:One part of the homeless population is difficult to estimate. The reason might well be ____.
A.the homeless children are too young to be treated as children
B.the homeless population is growing rapidly
C.the homeless children usually stay outside school
D.some homeless children are deserted by their families
小题4:The McKinney Act is mentioned in this passage in order to show that ___.
A.the educational problems of homeless children are being recognized
B.the estimates on homeless children are hard to determine
C.the address of grade-school children should be located
D.all homeless people should have free education
