In Canada and the United States, there is a new group of children called “satellite kids”, who live in one place but whose parents live in another place.

Asians are immigrating (移民) to Canada and the United States in larger numbers than ever before. Most Asians immigrate because they believe that they can give their children a better education in the West. In Asia, especially in China, Japan, and Korea, it is difficult to go to university. Students must first pass the strict national examination. However, in Canada and the United States, it is easy to go to university, and anyone who wants to go can go. As a result, Asian parents decide to leave their countries so that their children can go to university.

The problem is that when Asians arrive, they discover that finding a job and making money are more difficult in the West than in the East. Also, they find that they are very lonely, and that they miss their homes. For these two reasons, most Asian parents decide to go back to work while their children study in the West. Therefore, these children become “satellite kids”, and most of their parents do not know how sad it is to be a “satellite kid”.

Only until now are Canadians and Americans discovering the “satellite kid” problem. Because these children do not speak English and because their parents are not there to take care of them, they are often absent from school. To be a “satellite kid” means to grow up in a country where you know you are different and where you cannot make friends because you do not speak English well. Also, it means to grow up lonely, because your parents are elsewhere. What these “satellite kids” will probably say to their parents is that it’s better to have parents around than to have a university education.

1.Some Asian parents send their kids abroad because ________.

A．they hope their children may easily find a job there

B．all foreign universities are better than the ones in their own countries

C．the kids may not be accepted by universities in their own countries

D．the kids want to improve their English and make foreign friends

2.“Satellite kids” refer to Asian kids ________.

A．without parents                        B．speaking no English

C．with university education                 D．living abroad alone

3.Some Asian immigrant children become “satellite kids” because their parents ________.

A．want to leave their own country            B．want them to go to university

C．return to their countries to work            D．want them to be independent

4.What is the main idea of the passage?

A．Parents want better education for their kids.

B．Parents feel lonely and miss their families.

C．Kids in foreign countries alone are badly in need of care from family.

D．Canadians and Americans begin to notice the “satellite kids” problem.

Ever since man began to use the telephone, there have been new problems arising from the carrying of messages. At first, each message was carried by a pair of overhead wires. As a result, telephone exchanges were soon surrounded by thousands of wires. The wires were then replaced by cables (电缆)，each containing many pairs of wires. Each cable is capable of carrying many messages. These cables, laid underground, replaced the overhead wires.

The more extensive telephone services have become, the more demand for these services has increased, particularly the demand for long-distance services. In China, for example, this growth is now over 30% every year. Long-distance telephone exchanges are usually in crowded cities, where is not easy to lay new labels for expanding services.

The use of radio to send telephone message and to link all telephone exchanges makes it possible to get rid of overhead wires and some underground cables.

Now man has invented the microwave system ( 微波系统 ). In a microwave system messages from various places can be brought together, and then they are sent out and received by radio. After that, the messages are split into their original form. Finally, they are sent to the places where they are going to be sent.

1.The word “message” ( in paragraph 1) is close in meaning to “______”.

A. electricity     B. industry     C. information    D. wave

2.A cable is different from an overhead wire, because it ________.

A. is made of wood

B. needs more exchange

C. carries more messages

D. is much longer

3.What does the word extensive mean？

A. growing       B. using       C. holding     D. understanding

4.The best title for the passage would be “________”.

A. The Telephone and Its Past

B. From the Wire to the Microwave System

C. The Needs for Better Telephones

D. How to Use the Telephone
