A new study finds that more than eighty percent of Internet users in the United States search of health information online.
Susannah Fox from the Pew Internet Project says doctors are still the main source of health information. But the study found that searching online is one of the leading ways that people look for a second opinion. He says, “People are sort of fact-checking what they have heard from a doctor. Our studies show that people are still very likely to turn to a health doctor when they need a diagnosis (诊断) or are planning a treatment.”
Forty-four percent of people are actually looking for doctors or other providers when they search for health information online. Two-thirds of Internet users look online for information about a certain disease or medical condition.
The Internet has also become an important source of spiritual support for people with health problems. Susannah Fox says one in five Internet users has gone online to find other people who have the same condition.
A disease is considered uncommon if it affects(侵袭) fewer than 200,000 people worldwide. The rise of social networking has made it easier for people with uncommon diseases to connect with each other and feel less alone. Social networking is also changing the way some doctors and patients communicate with each other.
Dr. Jeff Livingston operates a medical center for women in Irving, Texas. His office uses password-protected software to share information with patients. He says the software has increased efficiency(效率)， reduced costs and improved relations with patients. It has just changed the way we do health care. His medical centre also has a Facebook page, a Myspace page and a Twitter feed.
1._______is one of the most popular ways people look for health information.
A. Asking their Parents B. The Pew Internet Project
C. Searching online D. Reading books on medicine

C. Importance of the Internet. D. The rise of online treatment.
3.From the fourth paragraph we know that __________.
A. people with health problems go online to look for the new treatment

A. becomes a new way for doctors and patients to communicate with each other
B. encourages people to get more help from doctors online in time

It was Day 1 of our vacation on Cortes, a beautiful island. “iPhone, iPhone, iPhone,” my son kept moaning. In front of him was a big window facing the blue ocean. And a cool gentle wind was coming in from the door. Clearly, he saw and felt none of it．
Back at home, I’d soon give up and hand the phone over to him after five minutes of listening to this kind of moaning.
But not here. Before we left, I had told my 10-year-old son the rule — no emails, no Facebook, no video games, and no iPhone. We came here to get away from them all. Here we were on our first day and already, he couldn’t stand it.
_______ I walked down the grass road to the beach and looked out to the sea. My 6-year-old daughter and my husband were drawing on pieces of wood. They were doing just fine.
On Day 2, we spent the whole morning digging for shells(贝壳). This time, my son joined us. He collected shellfish and other sea treasures. When we got back to our little wood house, I gave my son a book, and put him on the lovely garden chair. It was almost dinner when he looked up.
The next few days passed in peace.
On Day 6, my son was lying beside me on the beach, watching the sun going down. He was playing with the sand. And there was something shining in his eyes. I realized how time slowed down for both of us. It was exactly what I wanted. Finally, we were able to sit quietly without thinking about screens, phone calls and e-mail.
A week away from all the electronics and life is good.

The pencil is a very simple object. However, it took hundreds of people over centuries to make it what it’s like today.
The story of the pencil starts with graphite(石墨). People cut it into small sticks and use them to write or draw. Around 1560, an Italian couple named Simoni and Lyndiana Bemacotti added wood holders to the graphite sticks. However, since the graphite is too soft, the pencils were easy to break. In 1795, in France, Nicolas-Jacques Conte worked out a method of mixing graphite powders with clay(黏土). In this way, people made strong pencil core(铅笔芯). To this day, the method is still used in making pencils.
It was Henry David Thoreau who came up with the grading scale(分级量表) for different hardnesses of pencils. It was graded one through four, and grade two is the proper hardness for general use. The softer the pencil is, the more graphite it has in it, and the darker the line is. The harder the pencil is, the more clay it has, and the lighter the line is. Nowadays, pencils marked 2B are usually used in exams to mark answers. Pencils marked HB are usually used in daily writing. People usually use pencils of different hardness and blackness to draw different parts of a picture.
When pencils were handmade, they were made round. Then an American Joseph Dixon developed machines to make pencils. Later people found out it was easier and less wasteful to make a pencil which has six sides.
There is a pencil for everyone and every pencil has a story. The Blackwing 602 is famous for being used by a lot of writers. And then, you have the Dixon pencil company. It’s what people think of when they think of a pencil and what they most probably will buy when their children are about to write.
In my opinion, there’s nothing that can be done to make the pencil better than it is.
1.Who improved the hardness of pencils?
A.Joseph Dixon. B.Nicolas-Jacques.
C.Henry David Thoreau. D.Simoni and Lyndiana Bemacotti.
2.What can we learn about pencils?
A.Pencils of great hardness are less useful.
B.Their hardness and blackness decide their uses.
C.Round pencils were first made by machines.
D.Pencils with six sides are comfortable to use.
3.What does Paragraph 5 tell us?
A.Pencils are the best writing tool. B.There are many kinds of pencils.
C.The Blackwing 602 is very expensive. D.Dixon pencils are popular with people.
4.What does the underlined word “it” mean in Paragraph 4?
A.The grading scale. B.The story of the pencil.
C.To make the pencil round. D.To make a pencil which has six sides.
5.What’s the text mainly about?
A.The development of pencils. B.The main inventors of pencils.
C.What pencils are made out of. D.Why pencils are widely used.

Nowadays, many people in China and Japan are racing against time. They put a lot of value in “being on time”. However, in some countries of the world, people have different opinions on “being on time”.
Germany
Thanks to its industrial past, in Germany you are expected to arrive at least ten minutes earlier for any planned meeting.
In Germany, being on time is risky enough because your hosts will probably already be there waiting, wondering how on earth you could be so stupid. What will you do if anything unexpected happens, like heavy traffic or a sudden rain? So remember to arrive early in Germany.
Saudi Arabia
Some countries care little about time and Saudi Arabia is one of them. It’s because of their long history of desert living where time is not the first thing to think about. It could be that it’s too hot to do anything on time. So don’t expect them to be on time. Moreover, looking at your watch during an event is even considered as bad manners. So don’t get angry with them, either.
Ghana
Most meeting times can be changed, even if an exact time is given, Ghanaians are very relaxed and easygoing. They think that if everyone is late, then no one is late. After all, what can’t be done today can get done tomorrow. If you find it difficult to deal with, prepare to be unhappy. Otherwise, sit back enjoy the ride. Refuse and ignore it.
Russia
Patience is considered a very important quality in Russian culture but being on time is not. When doing business in Russia, do be on time. Otherwise, it will be considered disrespectful. But Russians won’t hold themselves to the same standard. So, again, patience can be key.
| How differently people consider “being on time” in different countries. | |
| 1. | Different opinions on “being on time” |
| China and Japan | Both Chinese and Japanese think it valuable to be on time. |
| Germany | Hosts expect you to arrive early for any planned meeting because of the influence of their industrial past. You are thought to be stupid 2. you arrive at least ten minutes earlier. |
