Most parents love the Internet and want their kids to use it. But a new survey in America finds almost as many also fear the online world—especially social networking sites such as My Space—and worry their kids will get in trouble with people they meet.
“The parents see the web’s incredible potential(可能性), and they know their kids have to be there.” says James Steyer, CEO of Common Sense Media, which released results from a survey that looked into parental attitudes toward the Internet. “It is also what they are scared of most.”
The study was conducted online May 5-10 by Insight Research Group. It says 80% of parents are concerned about kids meeting bad people online. That’s because young people who largely have grown up with the Net think of it as a social outlet(出口), say the researchers. To young people, the benefits of giving out some personal information to reach out to friends outweigh the risks. And the study shows they are so comfortable with the medium that 78% have a personal website or blog.
Parents also recognize the importance of the Internet. The survey shows 91% think the Net helps their children explore their passions, and 77% think the Internet is one of the most valuable education tools teens have. But 88% think it’s important to know what their kids are doing online.
Findings suggest both parents and teens need more education about using online media, Steyer says.
Internet safety has become an increasing concern for parents in America. Organizations like the Non-profit Common Sense have been trying to reach and help parents pay attention to the problem.
1.In the second paragraph, the underlined word “It” refers to_____.
A. Common Sense Media B. the result of the survey
C. the web’s incredible potential D. the website called My Space
2.Why do young people give out their personal information?
A. They think it has more advantages than disadvantages.
B. They want to make themselves famous by doing that.
C. They want to have a personal website each.
D. They want to get some information from others.
3.Most parents think it is important to know_____.
A. where their children give out the information B. what kind of websites they have
C. how often they go online D. what their children are doing online
4.From the passage we can infer that_____.
A. children are too young to know how to use the Internet
B. parents must teach their children how to use the Internet
C. parents also need to learn more about using the Internet
D. the Internet is the most valuable tool for children to learn

I remember a day when I was a little kid. I was making a sandwich in the kitchen when I noticed the date on one of the wine bottles.
“ Dad, dad!” I cried. “This wine is too old to drink.”
“ Son, hold on,” he said.
“ No, you can’t drink this tonight! This bottle of wine was made 10 years ago.”
“ Wait, let me tell you…”
“ Would you like me to throw it away from you?” I asked.
“ Son, wait a second,” he said. “Son, some wines get better over time. The longer you wait to drink it, the better it will be. Although this may seem strange, it is true.”
When I was young, I didn’t have any understanding of what this meant, but now, this would have been very helpful to remember as I went through my teenage years.
In our society, we forget this simple rule: The longer you want for certain things, the better they will be. But we want the best job as quickly as possible; we want to graduate from college in as few years as possible; we even speed through our homework just to chat with friends. When we do this, we lose something of great importance.
We all want to get to the next step so quickly that perhaps we don’t get ready enough to get there. This has a negative effect on our society. When trying to go to the right college, we will do anything to get in and when we rush through our class-work, we may not study enough for the test, and end up failing. We need to be ready for whatever comes, ready for the unexpected. Wine gets better over time, so do the things in our paths of life.
1.Why did the author tell his father not to drink the bottle of wine?
A. Because it smelt terrible.
B. Because it was mixed with something else.
C. Because his father drank too much that night.
D. Because it had been kept for years.
2.What the author’s father said __________.
A. made the author puzzled when he was a little child.
B. was too simple a rule to be meaningful to the author.
C. threw the author into deep thought then.
D. was an excuse to drink the wine.
3. In the author’s opinion, if we do things too quickly, we will __________.
A. do it better B. save much time
C. graduate from college more quickly D. miss something useful to us in life
4. Which of the following best reflects the main idea of the passage?
A. Well begun is half done. B. More haste(匆忙), less speed.
C. Failure is the mother of success. D.Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
