I could feel the judging eyes of my family burning a hole into the back of my head as I picked up my phone. All of a sudden, the chattering in the living room died and all I could hear was the sound of the turkey sizzling (发出嘶嘶声) in the oven.
“Look at her! She’s been on her phone all day long! It’s all your fault! Children will never respect elders if they are not taught how to behave! ” my grandmother shouted.
I was very shocked and angry! I opened my mouth to say something, but words failed me and I just sat down quietly on the chair like a mouse in its trap. I thought “Here we go again.” I truly love my family and I would do anything for them. I also know that they would do anything for me as well. However, there are moments that make me feel like they are just stuck with me. They all agree on one thing: technology is wrecking me.
If I am going to be treated like a child or completely ignored, I will most likely not enjoy your company, and I feel like this applies to (适用于） the majority of the people. So I sometimes simply shut myself in my room and listened to the voices coming from the living room, thinking: They all grew up in a world so different that it amazes me how they have actually gotten this far. They did not have phones or any type of advanced technology, which is both good and bad. Bad because they had almost no type of fast communication, and good because they were forced to interact (互动) with one another, which is something today’s society is lacking in. However, maybe if they made an effort to be aware of how things work nowadays, they would not be so against everything.
1.What happened when the author picked up her smart phone?
A. Her family laughed at her. B. Her family kept silent.
C. She felt like having headache. D. She smelt something burning.
2.The underlined word in the third paragraph probably means ________.
A. punishing B. encouraging
C. ruining D. saving
3.We can infer from the passage that the author felt it hard ________.
A. to do something to please her family
B. to satisfy her family’s high expectation
C. to get along with her family in some way
D.
to move out or break away from her family4.The author uses the last paragraph to show that ________.
A. it is important to strengthen understanding among the family
B. it is necessary to treat each other well in the family
C. it is hard for the older people to accept the advanced technology
D. it is her duty to provide her family with a happier life in the future

My reason for starting our family tradition of reading in the car was purely selfish: I could not bear listening to A Sesame Street Christmas for another 10 hours. My three children had been addicted to this cassette（磁带）on our previous summer road trips.
As I began to prepare for our next 500-mile car trip, I came across a book—Jim Trelease’s—The Read Aloud Handbook. This could be the answer to my problem. I thought. So I put Roald Dahl’s James and the Giant Peach into my bag. When I began to read aloud the tale of the boy who escapes the bad guys by hiding inside a giant peach, my three kids argued and fought with each other in their seats. But after several lines, they were attracted into the rhythm of the words and began to listen.
We soon learned that the simple pleasure of listening to a well-written book makes the long miles pas more quickly. Sometimes reading became the most interesting part of the trip. I read Wilson Rawls’s Summer of the Monkeys as we spent two days driving to the beach. We arrived just behind the power crews restoring（恢复）electricity after a tropical storm. The rain continued most of the week, and the beach was covered with oil washed up by the storm. When we returned home, I asked my son what he liked about the trip. He answered without hesitation “The book you read in the car.”
Road trips still offer challenges, even though my children now are teenagers. But we continue to read as we roll across the country. And I’m beginning to see tat reading aloud has done more than help pass the time. For at least a little while, we are not shut in our own electronic worlds. And maybe we've started something that will pass on to the next generation.
1.Why did the author start reading in the car?
A. She wanted to have a better journey.
B. She wanted to keep a family tradition
C. Her children were addicted to reading.
D. Her children were tired of the cassette.
2.How did the children react after the author read a few lines?
A. They kept fighting. B. They hid themselves.
C. They soon settled down. D. They read together aloud.
3.What can we learn about the author and her family’s trip to the beach?
A. They were caught in a storm.
B. They enjoyed reading on the road.
C. They had a good time on the beach.
D. They found reading boring.
4.Which can be the best title for the text?
A. Better Traveling than Reading B. Books that Changed My Children
C. Road Trips Full of Challenges D. Reading Makes Great Road Trips

Do you often feel that you aren’t taking in as much of the joy around you as you could? I recently caught myself feeling this way, and based on a suggestion by John Horton, coauthor (合著者) of The Inner Game of Stress, I put myself on a 30-day life-appreciation course.
The only assignment each day was to go outside and appreciate life.
So I started by taking in the beauty around me. During the first few days, I was able to appreciate my surroundings, although it was an intellectual appreciation, not an emotional one.
After the first week, it was more uncomfortable to lie in bed and think about things than it was to get up and see them for myself.
If you often wake up feeling anxious or depressed, or if you don’t look forward to each day, then you need to try this course for yourself.
It’s an inner workout that you can do anywhere. It may not change your life, but it will adjust your attitude, and that’s pretty helpful in this crazy world.
I have always believed in ending the day on a positive note by writing a word or two in a gratitude journal and saying something sweet to my wife about the day we shared.
Now, I have a new morning habit. It hasn’t changed my routine one bit, but it has changed the way I look at the world.
Creating a new habit isn’t about perfection – it’s about getting what you want by creating a change in your behavior and thinking.
So now, while I’m making my coffee in the morning, I’m also appreciating what I have.
It’s quick, fulfilling, and a much better way to start my day than looking at my phone or computer.
And because of this, my attitude is better, as I’ve already begun my morning on a positive note rather than a problematic one.
The idea here is that if you can appreciate your life, it actually changes the way you feel about it.
Appreciation will give you more energy to live the way you would like to live.
As a means of improving our mood, it’s highly underrated (被低估的). The easy task of appreciating what we have simply makes life better.
1.How did the author feel about seeing things for himself after he started the life-appreciation course?
A. Comfortable. B. Doubtful . C. Anxious. D. Depressed.
2.What does the author think of his new morning habit?
A. It has changed his daily routine.
B. It has increased his desire for perfection.
C. It has improved his physical health.
D. It has changed his way of viewing the world.
3.Which of the following might the author disagree to?
A. Enjoying the beautiful surroundings of your neighborhood.
B. Appreciating a cup of coffee in the morning.
C. Amusing yourself with your phone to start your day.
D. Seeing things from a different angle.
4.What’s the author’s main purpose in writing this article?
A. To recommend a life-appreciation course to readers.
B. To explain why appreciation is often underrated.
C. To encourage readers to be grateful for life.
D. To advise all the readers to change their lifestyle.
