A

I plan to remember this year’s vacation season with just two words: NEVER AGAIN. Never again, that is, will I take all my technology along. The Internet has ruined summer vacations.

Instead of reading dog-eared summerhouse mystery novels, this year we browsed the Internet. Instead of long evenings of crossword puzzles or board games, we checked our Twitter feeds and updated our Facebook pages. And that, of course, is the problem with the Internet: It’s so easy that, unless you’re equipped with massive self-control, you use it if it’s there.

For several years, I kept my Internet addiction under control by using inconvenient technology: a

laptop which is old and not in good condition and a slow dial-up connection. But this year, the combination of a new iPad and very good Wi-Fi turned out to be fatal. The magical iPad signaled silently from the picnic table: What harm could it be to give the e-mail a quick check? But once that attractive touch screen lights up, who can resist?

I’m not the first to get lost across this problem, of course. I’m a late adopter. As early as 2008, Nicholas Carr, author of The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains, was warning that broadband Internet was reducing our attention spans and making us stupid. The Web, he said, encourages us to get stuck into our ―natural state of distractedness.‖ Even before that, in 2000, Harvard’s Robert Putnam warned that television had reduced the amount of time families spent in social interactions. And last year, researchers at UC-Irvine reported that employees who were unplugged from their e-mail got more work done and experienced far less stress.

Access to the Web is unquestionably a wonderful thing. I love having a bottomless library at my fingertips; I love having the world’s newspapers on my electronic doorstep. I love being able to pay bills and make airplane reservations online. And, thanks to those ugly cell phone towers in the woods, we now have a way to call for help if we need an ambulance or a fire truck. It’s also nice to have an app that identifies the constellations (星座）when you hold the iPad up to the night sky. But then, you have to remember to put the screen down and simply drink in the stars — the original, uncut version.

And that’s the point: It’s important not to let the convenience of the Internet get in the way of simpler beauties. It’s our fault instead of the Internet, for failing to control the urge to browse. My problem is learning how to limit the time I spend on it. So now I have one more thing to look forward to next summer: More time reading old novels; more time playing crossword puzzles and chasing frogs. Next year, I promise to unplug. Except, of course, when we need to find a new bike trail, or Google a recipe for wild blueberry pie.

21. Throughout the passage, what evidence does the author provide to support the ideas he makes in paragraph 2?

A. Results of opinion polls (投票) about Internet use. B. Scientific studies and statistics about Internet use.

C. Historical facts regarding the effects of television and the Internet. D. Personal accounts and opinions of those who have studied the Internet.

22. According to the passage, how does the writer keep himself from getting addicted to the Internet?

A. By using outdated laptops with poor Internet access. B. By keeping the electronic devices out of reach. C. By accessing new iPad and good Wi-Fi. D. By only giving the e-mail a quick look.

23. Which of the following statement will the author probably agree to?

A. people can have meaningful vacations only if they leave all electronic devices(设备）at home B. people should not rely on the Internet to provide them with news and other information C. although the Internet is often useful, it can become addictive and prevent human interaction D. even though there are some good things about the Internet, in general, it has affected civilization for the worse

Post-00s is a documentary about growing up. It covers almost every aspect of millennials’ experiences on their path toward adolescence – their struggles with schoolwork, their relationship with peers, their confusion if a younger brother or sister is born into the family, and their growing desire to keep a distance from their parents. But this five-episode series was different from any other TV program with a similar theme.

Post-00s was filmed over a period of 10 years, during which the show’s makers followed a group of kids from when they were babies through to when they became teenagers. In other words, the show’s ―characters‖ grow older for real, and their stories are all real.

―Coming-of-age‖ stories, as they’re known, have a special appeal. They satisfy our curiosity of looking at someone else’s life, and we become more and more attached to the characters as if we truly know them. And while we enjoy the truthfulness of the stories because nothing is set in advance, we also can’t help but feel the cruelty of reality. After all, there’s no re-writing of the script （剧本） and there’s no turning back – this is real life.

This realness can also be seen in Boyhood, a 2014 film that won the Silver Bear award for best director at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival. During a period of 12 years, the film

follows the life of Mason Jr – played by US actor Ellar Coltrane – from when he was 6 to when he finished high school.

One of Boyhood’s appeals comes from its ―ordinariness‖. Mason Jr isn’t some child genius. He is a quietly spoken, fairly typical American boy, growing up in the Texas suburbs. He likes riding his bike and playing video games.

While coming-of-age stories may look ordinary on the outside, they often allow us to look underneath the surface and see something extraordinary – the power of life itself.

24. In the documentary, we see post-00’s growing experience EXCEPT __________.

A. how they deal with their studies

B. how they help look after brothers or sisters C. how they get along with people of their age

D. how much they long to be independent of their parents 25. What do Post-00 and Boyhood have in common?

A. They’re intended to win an award for best director. B. The heroes and heroines are characters themselves. C. They’re a kind of reality show of ordinary kids’ growth. D. The stories are based on true life but polished by writers.

26. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?

A. Post-00s are different geniuses C. Documentary is real life

C

One of the most inspiring quotes I ever heard was by Brian Tracy. He said: ―The difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is that successful people fail many more times than unsuccessful people.‖ I personally experienced the wisdom of that understanding right after my first book was published. Like many authors, I expected hundreds of bookstore customers lining up for me to sign copies for them. I’m afraid to say, it didn’t quite happen like that. My first signing was arranged at the largest bookstore in the city. Filled with expectation, I was

B. Life is one big story D.Actors are ordinary characters
