As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize; they can also be small, such as becoming one of the best students in your class.

Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream real?

Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams real is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it’s impossible for you to become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream.

In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams.

You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important.

Having a teenager at home can be a real headache. Many teenagers smoke, drink and even fight. They often do something dangerous.

Earlier studies have shown that teenagers are more likely (可能) to make irrational decisions than people from any other age group, including children and adults. Is it that teenagers are too young to tell right from wrong? Not really. So what’s the reason?

According to Laurence, a teacher from a US university, the reason is that teenagers care a lot about how their peers (同龄人) view them—that is “peer influence”.

As children enter their teenage years, they spend more time with their friends and classmates, and also they care more about what they think of them. This makes teenagers make decisions without thinking about the costs.

In a test, a group of teenagers were asked to play a video driving game. When they played with their friends watching around them, they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning. But when they played alone, they drove more safely.

Why do peers have such a big influence on teens’ behavior?

As Laurence sees it, a teenager’s brain is like a car with a good accelerator (油门) but a weak brake (刹车). The “accelerator” is fully developed by teenage years while the “brake” is still not fully developed. When teenagers are watched by their peers, they usually push hard on the accelerator. With their weak brake, it is likely that they are going to end up in an accident.

But the good news is that a violent (暴力的)teenager doesn’t necessarily become a violent adult. About two-thirds to three-quarters of violent youth grow out of it. “They get more self-controlled.”　

1.What does the underlined word “irrational” in the 2nd paragraph mean?

A. Quick.    B. Crazy.            C. Careful.                D. Correct.

2.Why are teenagers likely to make wrong decisions according to the text?

A. They like difficult tasks.

B. They don’t care about costs.

C. They are too young to tell right from wrong.

D. They care a lot about what their peers think of them.

3.How does Laurence explain the influence of peer pressure on teens’ behavior?

A. By comparing it with how a car works.

B. By comparing it with an accident.

C. By showing research findings.

D. By giving examples.

4.According to the text, with peers around them, teenagers are more likely to _______ .

A. use more self-control

B. perform better than when they are alone

C. become more careful about what they do

D. care about winning without thinking about danger

As many as one in five US teenagers have some degree of hearing loss, according to researchers.

They say the problem is growing.

Teenagers really don’t pay attention to how much noise they are exposed (暴露) to, Josef Shargorodsky of Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston told Reuters. “Often people won’t notice it, but even slight hearing loss may affect language development,” said Shargorodsky, one of the researchers.

The study compared surveys from the early 1990s and the mid-2000s. Each included a few thousand teenagers. In the first survey, about 15 percent of teenagers had some degree of hearing loss. Some 15 years later, that number had risen by a third, to nearly 20 percent.

“This certainly is big news,” said Alison Grimes, an ear doctor. Hearing loss is very common in old people, Grimes said, but she added that it was worrying to see it happen in the younger age group.

In babies and young children, hearing problems are known to slow language development. The science is less clear for teenagers, but it is easy to imagine how being hard of hearing could affect learning, said Grimes,.

The reasons for the rise are still unclear. When researchers asked teenagers about noise exposure – on the job, at school or from activities, for example – the teenagers didn’t report any change. But Shargorodsky said that might not be true. “We knew from before that it is difficult to ask this age group about noise exposure – they underestimate (低估) it.” Few people would call it noise when they listen to music on their MP3 player, for example. “There is a difference between what we think is loud and what is harmful to the ear,” said Grimes.

Although it’s not clear that the MP3 players cause teenagers’ hearing loss, Grimes said it was still a good idea to turn down the sound and take short breaks from listening.

1.According to the researchers, in a US class of 40 students, about ____ students have some degree of hearing loss.

A. one              B. five             C. six           D. eight

2.Which of the following statements is true according to the article?

A. Slight hearing loss does not influence learning.

B. Only a few old people have hearing problems.

C. Hearing problems can slow language development.

D. Noise exposure is clearly noticed by teenagers.

3.About hearing loss, it can be inferred that ________.

A. the reasons for the rise have been found           B. MP3 players are to blame

C. listening to loud music may be a cause            D. noise is the main reason

4.The article was written to ______.

A. warn teenagers that loud music might be harmful

B. explain what kinds of noises might affect studies

C. suggest that teenagers shouldn’t listen to loud music

D. show how important hearing can be for learning

Not many things in life can be more irritating (令人气愤的): you are having a conversation with friends, but they check their phones and begin replying to texts or checking their emails. The Guardian (卫报) described the scene of a friend’s face buried in a screen as “a distinct 21st-century problem”. A new word has been created to describe this --- phubbing. It is the act of looking at your mobile phone instead of paying attention to others during a social interaction. Like pointing at one’s nose, phubbing is widely considered rude behavior. People everywhere are beginning to lose patience with the phenomenon.

A “Stop Phubbing” campaign group has been started in Australia and at least five others have appeared as anger about the lack of manners grows. The campaign’s creator, Alex Haigh, 23, from Melbourne, said, “A group of friends and I were chatting when someone said how annoying being ignored by people on mobiles was.” He has created a website where companies can download posters to discourage phubbing.

Phubbing is just one symptom of our increasing dependence on mobile phones and the Internet, which is replacing normal social interaction. A survey found that one out of three Britons would answer the phone in a restaurant and 19% said they would while being served in a shop. The survey came after a supermarket assistant in south London refused to serve a woman until she stopped using her phone. A survey, for a Sunday paper, also found that 54 per cent of people checked Facebook, Twitter or other social media every day, with 16 per cent checking more than ten times a day. An unsurprising 63 per cent of people carry their phone with them “almost all, or all of the time”, it found.

Phil Reed, a professor of psychology at Swansea University who has studied the Internet addiction disorder, said many phubbers show symptoms of addiction to their mobile phones.

Time magazine once pointed out, “Phubbing has a much greater potential harm to real-life connections by making people around us feel like we care more about posts than their presence.”

In the UK, Glamour magazine even imagined how novelist Jane Austen (1775-1817) would have written about people with bad mobile phone manners: “It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man or woman in possession of a good mobile phone must be in want of manners.”

1.Phubbing has occurred because _______.

A. distrust has already been everywhere among people

B. the friendship between people is becoming weak

C. people are getting dependent on attraction online

D. there has been a lack of means of communication

2.Which of the statements is TRUE about the “Stop Phubbing” campaign?

A. It was first started in America and then it spread to Melbourne.

B. Companies can update posters against phubbing on the website.

C. Alex Haigh, 23, was the first one to find phubbing annoying.

D. Up till now, at least six groups have claimed to support it.

3.The supermarket assistant refused to serve the woman mainly because _______.

A. the woman buried her face in the mobile phone screen for a very long time

B. the woman ignored respect and manners by focusing only on her phone

C. the assistant lost his patience with the woman who was using her phone

D. it is rare for customers to answer the phone while being served in shops

4.In the last paragraph, the writer wants to tell readers that ______.

A. one with a mobile phone should mind his/her manners

B. Jane Austen must have worked for Glamour magazine

C. phubbing is going to be forbidden immediately in the UK

D. people with good manners must have good mobile phones
