If you’re reading this, it’s safe to assume you arrived by internet.
Maybe you caught the headline as it raced by on Twitter. Or you might be taking a break from watching a boring movie on Netflix.
It doesn’t matter. Because according to a new study, it all adds up to the same thing: one distraction(分心的事情)after another.
And the thing is, they’re welcome distractions. Because, as the research — published this week in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology — notes, people will do just about anything to avoid being left to their own thoughts.
For their study, researchers designed a sample test for more than 2,557 participants in 11 countries. They divided their test subjects into two groups. In the first group, people were asked to spend 10 to 15 minutes “entertaining themselves with their thoughts as best they could.”
Just sit back and think about things. Sounds good, doesn’t it? Well, not really. The second group — the one where people were told to surf the Net, play a video game, or even read a book — reported having much more fun. They scored more highly on entertainment and lower on boredom. And the preference for distraction seemed to be a global phenomenon, which may come as a surprise to Italians who are famously brilliant at doing nothing.
“The preference for doing external(外部的)activities such as reading, watching TV, or surfing the internet rather than ‘just thinking’ appears to be strong throughout the world,” the researchers note in the study.
But there does seem to be an important thing that hasn’t been included in the study. Shouldn’t the quality of thoughts matter? If you’ve got something positive to think about — say, how you’re going to spend your vacation or the great screenplay you’ve already half-written in your head — why are you reading this?
On the other hand, if you are always bothered by negative thoughts — a sad or painful experience, perhaps — by all means, keep scrolling(翻网页).
Unfortunately, we won’t be able to take up much of your time here; it’s a short study that gets to the point in a hurry. Don’t worry though. There’s a whole world of distractions out there. Say, have you seen that ship teetering at the brink of Niagara Falls? And how about those charming cows? Bet you didn’t know they could smell you from six miles away.
And that’s something to think about.
1.Why would the Italians be surprised at the phenomenon?
A.They prefer reading books to surfing the Net.
B.They’re convinced that thinking is significant.
C.They are used to being left to their own thoughts.
D.They seldom entertain themselves by surfing the Net.
2.How was the study conducted?
A.By reference research. B.By comparative study.
C.By theoretical analysis. D.By experimental study.
3.What seems to have been ignored in the study?
A.The quality of thoughts. B.The cause of the phenomenon.
C.The solution to the problem. D.The kinds of distractions.
4.What’s the tone of the passage?
A.Worried. B.Disappointed.
C.Serious. D.Humorous.

How parents can help with cyberbullying(网络欺凌)?
43% of kids have been bullied online. One in four has had it happen more than once.70% of students reported seeing frequent bullying online. Many studies suggest that cyberbullying has become a serious problem worldwide and makes many kids suffer. 1..
Let teachers know about the situation. Many schools have protocols(协议)for responding to cyberbullying. Before reporting the problem, let your children know what you want to do so that you can make a plan that makes you both feel comfortable.
Encourage your children not to respond to cyberbullying, because doing so just fuels the fire and makes the situation worse. 2.. Instead, you should keep the threatening messages, pictures, and texts, which can be used as evidence for the bully’s parents, schools, or even the police.
Limit your kids’ access to the Internet. Though hurtful, many kids who are bullied can’t resist the temptation(诱惑)to check websites or phones to see if there are new messages. 3.. Many websites and smartphones include parental control options that allow parents to control kids’ online life.
4.. Follow your children on social media sites, but do not make comments or post anything on your children’s whereabouts online. 5.. And also tell them why it’s a bad idea to share it online.

Children are keen Internet shoppers with more than half having bought something online, research has shown.
Around 53 percent of children aged between 7 and 16 said they had bought something over the Internet, 10 percent more than in 2004, according to Halifax.
Boys were more likely to be Internet shoppers than girls, with 60 percent of boys saying they had bought items online, compared with just 46 percent of girls.
Unsurprisingly, older children were more likely to use the Internet to shop than younger ones, with nearly three quarters of 12-16-year olds shopping online, compared to just 29 percent of 7-to-11-year olds who said they had bought something.
More than half of children preferred buying things over the Internet to buying them on the high street, while 61 percent of those who had bought things online said it was easier to buy certain items over the Internet than in shops.
However, boys were more likely to always prefer buying things online, while girls were more likely to still like the actual high street shopping experience.
The most common items for young people to buy over the Internet were CDs, tapes and computer games and equipment. Some children had bought DVDs and videos, while some had bought gifts.
Children spent most money on computer games and equipment, with 13 percent saying they spent more than $20 online on these items a year, followed by 12 percent who spent more than $20 a year on mobile phones and 11 percent who spent the same amounts on clothes.
Cheryl Millington, head of savings at Halifax, said, “ We are not only seeing the emergence of a generation of young consumers, but also keen cyber-consumers. While children often lead the way in Internet use within the family home, parents have an important role to play in ensuring they stay safe while online.”
73. From the passage, which of the following is NOT correct?
A. Children are keen on internet shopping
B. Boys are more likely to buy things over the Internet than girls
C. Older children want to buy things in actual streets
D. Children like to buy some fashionable items over the Internet
74. We can infer from the last paragraph that ________
A. Cheryl Millington is against children’s online shopping
B. parents should play an active role in ensuring their children’s safety

D. children will become the main composition of online shopping

More than a quarter of parents use a device to track or monitor their kids’ online activity, finds a survey from Common Sense Media and Survey Monkey. It’s far more than the percentage of teens (15%) who think their parents are tracking or monitoring what they do online. Whether all that snooping(调查)is effective seems unclear. Only 30% of teens who responded to the survey said their parents were “extremely” aware or “very” aware of what they do online. By comparison, 52% of parents believed they were “very” aware of their kids’ web activity.
“There’s a pretty big difference between parents who say they know and what kids say parents know,” said Michael Robb, director of research for Common Sense Media. The online survey was among a national sample of 884 teens and 3,282 parents of teens.
Options for tracking kids’ online activities vary from tools for your router capable of tracking the websites users visit to apps letting you review your child’s smart phone call logs and text messages.
Devorah Heitner, author of the book Screen Wise: Helping Kids Thrive (and Survive) In Their Digital World, suggests mentoring kids about best online practices instead of monitoring. If parents do choose to monitor, they should talk with their kids first. “You have to really ask yourself what you think you’re going to learn by monitoring your kid,” she said, “What’s your plan of action if you see something that concerns you?”
Other findings from the survey: Snapchat is the app that causes the most anxiety for parents. The survey found 29% said the messaging apps make them most nervous, followed by Facebook at 16%.Teens don't like Facebook as much as Snapchat or Instagram. More than three-quarters of teens said they use both messaging apps, but only 49% said they use Facebook, while 42% said they use Twitter.
Robb said Common Sense Media plans to partner with Survey Monkey on future online polls because the pace of technology is so rapid. “These surveys will be a quicker way to take the pulse of parents and teens.”
1.Which of the following is true according to the survey?
A. Snapchat is the biggest worry for both parents and kids
B. Some parents choose to use apps to track their kids’ online activity.
C. Twitter will cooperate with Facebook on future online polls.
D. Kids are aware that over 25% of parents use a device to track their online activity.
2.By mentioning “There’s a pretty big difference between parents who say they know and what kids say parents know” in Paragraph 2,the author intends to ________.
A. inform that the snooping seems to be ineffective
B. warn that the kids are being monitored by their parents
C. predict that more and more parents will monitor their kids’ online activities
D. indicate that the number of parents tracking teens online is beyond the kids’ imagination
3.Which of the following opinions will Devorah Heitner most probably agree with?
A. Parents had better not monitor their kids’ online activities.
B. Parents should communicate with their kids while monitoring their online activities.
C. Parents need to ask their kids permission before guiding them about online activities.
D. Parents must often reflect on their purpose of monitoring their kids’ online activities.
4.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. It is too young for kids to go online.
B. Teens don’t like Facebook at all.
C. Michael Robb is confident of the future online polls.
D. Common Sense Media plans to partner with Survey Monkey in the future.

One advantage of the Internet is shopping conveniently online for clothes; one disadvantage of the Internet is also shopping conveniently online for clothes.
“Nothing fits,” said Lam Yuk Wong, a senior in electrical and computer engineering at Rice University. “Everyone says this. They order clothes and they don’t fit. People get very unhappy.”
Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtual (虚拟) fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time.
Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Kong and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, ‘The color is wrong’ or ‘I got the right size but it still does not fit.’ We want to make it like you’re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.
Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player,
Zhang scans Wong and turns her image into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong’s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper’s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.
Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important to men.”
1.Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadvantage?
A. Clothes bought online may not fit.
B. Students may easily get addicted to it.
C. It attracts more online clothing shoppers.
D. It causes shoppers to waste too much money.
2.Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from .
A. the Xbox 360 video game player B. a program at their university
C. some shop-owners’ complaints D. their shopping experiences
3.Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?
