The Internet brings us many advantages.

With the Internet, people can send and receive e-mails. On the Internet, people can skim over news. Using the Telnet, the user anywhere on the Internet can log into any other machine on which he has an account. It is possible to use the FTP program to copy files from one machine on the Internet to another.

But the Internet also brings us troubles.

Internet use seems to cause a fall in psychological (心理的) health, according to research at Carnegie Mellon University. Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less often, the two-year study showed. And it wasn’t that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net actually seemed to cause the bad feelings.

Researchers are puzzling over the results, which were completely opposite to what they had expected. They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others.

The fact that Internet use reduces time used for family and friends may be the reason for the drop in health, researchers said. Faceless, bodiless “virtual” (虚拟的) communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversations, and the relationships formed through it may not be so deep. Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.

“But it’s important to remember this is not about the technology; it’s about how it is used,” said one of the researchers. “It really points to the need for considering social factors (因素) when you design new inventions.”

A. the Internet can bring people many advantages

D. Because the Internet users experienced less depression and loneliness.

3.What may be the reasons why the Internet use causes a fall in psychological health?

A. Internet use reduces time used for family and friends.

B. Virtual communication is less psychologically satisfying than actual conversations.

C. Exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.

A Chicago six-year-old girl’s decision to feed the homeless instead of receiving presents on her birthday is touching the hearts of many not only in the area, but also across the country.

Armani Crews had been begging her parents for a few months to feed homeless people in her community.

“I said, ‘OK, we’ll make some sandwiches,’ to which Armani said, ‘No. I want the same thing we’d have at my birthday party,’” her mother recalled.

Even when her father, Antoine, told her that if she wanted to go through with this, she wouldn’t get a birthday gift, the girl, whose birthday was March 5, wouldn’t give in.

So the Chicago family spent about $300 buying food to send to homeless people in the city’s East Garfield Park neighborhood. They bought chicken, fish, corn, green beans, mashed potatoes, rolls, cake, cookies, fruit and water.

After Armani mentioned her plan at the family’s local church, the church members donated (捐赠) other items to create care packages for the homeless.

Armani’s birthday party was a success, with the family feeding more than 125 people who gathered.

In a statement, the six-year-old girl told ABC News, “It was nice to be nice.” Her mother added, “She was excited and happy. Everybody was being fed. One gentleman said he hadn’t had a hot meal in a long time.”

1.What do we know about Armani Crews?

A.She was a six-year-old girl disliking birthday gifts.

B.She gave up her birthday party to feed the homeless.

C.She begged her parents to feed the homeless regularly.

D.She was willing to protect the pride of the homeless.

2.Which word can best describe the feeling of the gentleman in the last paragraph?

3.The text is meant to tell us that _______________.
