Let’s Go Bug Hunting More Often
Kids spell love T-I-M-E
John Crudele
One fall afternoon I rushed home from the university where I taught. I prepared a simple dinner, threatened(恐吓,威胁)my nine-year-old daughter, Christi, to hurry and finish her homework “or else,” and told Del, my husband, not to leave his dusty shoes on the good carpet any more. I then hurriedly cleaned the entry-way because a group of respectable ladies were coming by to pick up some good used clothing for a worthwhile cause; and then later a graduate student would be at our house to work on a very important thesis(论题)—one that I was certain would help a lot with research.
As I paused to catch a breath, I heard Christi talking with a friend on the telephone. Her words went something like this: “ Mom is cleaning house—some ladies we don’t even know are coming by to pick up some old worn-out clothes… and a college student is coming out to work on a thesis… no, I don’t know what a thesis is… I just know Mom isn’t doing anything important… and she won’t go bug(小虫)hunting with me.”
Before Christi hung up the phone, I had put on my jeans and old tennis shoes, persuaded Del to do likewise, pinned a note to the door telling the graduate student I ’d be back soon, and set out the box of used clothing on the front porch(门廊)with a note on it that Del, Christi and I had gone bug hunting.
1.The first paragraph mainly wants to tell us that the writer________.
A.was a good housewife B.was really busy every day

2.What made the writer change her idea?

C.Her talk with her lovely daughter D.Her daughter’s friend’s advice
3.What did she do in the end?
A.She played tennis with her husband and daughter
B.She took the box of used clothing to the ladies
C.She did what her daughter wanted her to do
D.She continued to do everything as planned
4.What did we learn from the story?

NEW YORK, May 19—A new, more destructive version of the “Love Bug ” virus is slowly spreading across the world, but so far the damage is small compared with its former version.
The new Love Bug virus creates disorder.
Richard Saunders of anti-viral firm Symantec said the virus only affected a dozen companies around the world.
“While it is a nasty virus, it’s not spreading anywhere near the rate Love But or (last year’s ) Melissa was spreading,” Saunders said.
“New Love” is similar in form to the Love Bug, which swept the world two weeks ago and caused more than $ 10 million in damages. But it’s much more destructive. The virus appears as an attachment to an e-mail whose subject begins with “FW”
If a user clicks on the attachment’s scroll-like icon(卷轴样的图标), every file on his hard drive is destroyed.
“Basically, it’s going to destroy your machine, ” said Eric Chine, chief researcher at Symantec’s anti-virus lad in the Netherlands.
The Love Bug only killed a small set of files, including graphic files. This virus even wipes out the Windows operating system.
Attorney General Janet Reno warned the public at a news conference today to be careful of any suspicious e-mail with attachments. “Do not open it, even it comes from a trusted source.” she said.
Don’t Open That Attachments.
Like the Love Bug, after the e-mail attachment is opened and the virus is carried out, New Love sends itself to everyone in a victim’s Microsoft Outlook address book. Fortunately for users, the lesson is the same as from the Love Bug: If you see a message with an attachment whose name ends in vbs, with a scroll-like icon, don’t click on the attachment. Also like the Love Bug, this virus only affects computers running Windows 98, NT 4.0 Windows 95 with Internet Explorer 5.0 and can only spread if users rely on a Microsoft Outlook address book for e-mail. Microsoft will soon give a fix for Outlook that warns people or suspicious attachments, the company said.
68. According to the passage, so far the new Love Bug virus _________.
A. has made the whole world disordered
B. causes more damages than other forms of virus
C. is the newest and spreading the fastest
D. has affected 12 companies around the world
69. Computer users are warned in this article _________.
A. not to suspect e-mails beginning with “FW” subjects
B. not to open attachment of doubtful e-mails
C. to stop using Microsoft Outlook address book
D. to examine the Windows Operating System carefully
70. It can be suggested from the passage that _________.
A. the mail sent by a friend is surely free of the virus
B. the Microsoft Company will take action against the virus
C. all computers running Windows 98 will be affected
D. the users can not find the way to deal with the Love Bug.
71. The author writes this passage in order to _________.
A. compare some types of virus
B. explain how the Love Bug is formed
C. tell the readers something about a new virus
D. remind computer companies to kill the virus

“She goes to the movies with her friends! How come I can’t go?”
“You love him more than me!”
“I wish I were an only child!”
Parents have heard them all when more than one child resides under their roof. Although siblings(兄弟姐妹) can be the closest of friends, it’s rare to find a child who gets along perfectly with all of his or her siblings.
Kids aren’t always the most rational of human beings----especially younger children. Sometimes, the smallest issue can turn into a major battle and strain a sibling relationship to the breaking point.
Attention. Children are always vying(竞争) for their parents’ attention. The busier the parents are, the greater demand is for their attention and the less they can focus on each child. When there’s a new baby, it can be hard for the other child (or children) to accept losing his or her position as the centre of attention. Sometimes the parents’ attention is focused on a child who is sick or has special needs. Kids will act out and misbehave to get the attention they want if they feel like they’re being ignored.
Sharing.Most homes don’t have unlimited resources. That means all siblings will unavoidably have to share at least some of their things. Giving up a toy or other favorite possessions to a sibling can be especially hard on young children.
Unique personalities. Your oldest child might be the headstrong one while the youngest is quieter and more introverted. Differences in character can lead to clashes. Age and gender differences can also lead to sibling fighting.
Fairness problems. Children are like little lawyers, always asking fairness and equality and fighting for what they consider are their natural-born rights. A younger sibling might complain that her elder sister goes to a concert and she has to stay home, while the elder sister complains that she has to babysit her little sister instead of going out with her friends. Feeling of unfair treatment and sibling jealousy can lead to hate.
1.The first three sentences are a kind of _______.
A. warning B. requirements
C. complains D. doubts
2.From the last paragraph we learn that _______.
A. children don’t like to do things for parents
B. children expect to be treated fairly
C. children have the right to play outside
D. children want to become lawyers
3.The purpose of writing this passage is to _________.
A. introduce the different characters of children
B. require parents to pay equal attention to children
C. give advice on dealing with sibling rivalry
D. explain the root of sibling conflict
