Did you know that a new weblog is being created each second? Many of these bloggers are teenagers. While their parents wrote in a diary to express their emotions, or shared their interests by spending time with friends, teens are now using blogs instead. In fact, in the US, one in every five school-aged teens has a blog. Most of these are just chatter, some are funny or clever, but a few have become Internet success.
For example, Chloe Spencer’s blog ‘Neopets Fanatic’ gets around 300,000 hits per month. When Chloe was 15, she started the blog out of her strong liking for Neopets, a kind of pet website. One reason her blog has so many visitors is because she gives instructions and tips for the popular pet site.
Then there is Tavi Gevinson’s blog ‘Style Rookie’. It is said to get 1.5 million hits per month. Tavi, who started her blog when she was just 12, puts up her photos of her own clothes online as well as designers’ collections. Tavi’s blog has caught on because she knows a lot about style for someone so young, and she is not afraid to try out unusual clothes or see things in a different way.
Blogs like these are interesting, but they only become really popular after better-known websites link to them or they get noticed by the media(传媒). For example, Tavi’s blog became an overnight(一夜之间) success after being written about in The New York Times. Popular blogs can even earn money, usually from advertisements that companies pay to put up on the bloggers’ sites.
So for some, blogging is just a recreation(消遣), but for others, it can become a source of income and even a full-time job!

解析试题分析：这篇短文讲述的是现在很多青少年都写博客，一些人的博客还非常的受欢迎，有很高的点击率，文章中给出了两个例子。这些博客之所以成功是有原因的，不仅有网站的链接和媒体的关注，更有巨大的商业利益。
【小题1】推理判断题。这篇文章告诉我们很多青少年都有微博，他们经常在微博上讨论一些有趣的事情，或是抒发自己的情感。所以现在的年轻人要比他们的父母有更多的交流方式。故选A。B选项意为青少年比他们的父母分享更多的感情，这不是文章的主要内容；C选项意为现在的青少年比他们的父母更经常写日记，这个表述不符合文意；D选项意为青少年交的朋友更多，这也不是文章的主要内容。
【小题2】词意猜测题。这个单词在文章的第一段最后一句话Most of these are just chatter, some are funny or clever, but a few have become Internet success.，因为句中已出现了funny和clever两词，故这里我们可以排除A、B；C选项意为严肃的，认真的；D选项意为不重要的。因为这句话告诉我们大部分的人都只是聊天，还有一些是有趣的，聪明的，很少能在网上成功的。故这里应该是说在微博上他们讨论的话题是不重要的。故选D。
【小题3】推理判断题。根据文章的第二段和第三段我们可知，这两个人都是比较成功的青少年博主，Chloe Spencer是一个宠物爱好者，而Tavi Gevinson热爱时尚。故选B。
【小题4】细节理解题。根据文章的第二段When Chloe was 15, she started the blog out of her strong liking for Neopets, a kind of pet website可知，Chloe非常喜欢这个宠物网站Neopets，故她是一个宠物爱好者。故选B。
【小题5】细节理解题。根据文章的最后一段内容可知，Tavi’s blog became an overnight(一夜之间) success Tavi的博客一夜之间出名了，故C是正确的。根据文章第三段的第一句话可知Tavi Gevinson的博客每个月有150万的点击率，可见她的博客是非常出名的，故排除A；B、D两项在文中没有提到。故选C。
【小题6】主旨大意题。这篇短文主要给我们讲述的是现在很多青少年都有博客，并且还有一些人的博客很有名，这些人的成功是因为有网站的链接，或者有传媒的注意。这些受欢迎的博客还能通过博主网页上的广告来赚钱。故选D。

Money, jewels and important documents may not be the only valuables placed in banks these days. Some mothers store their breast milk (母乳) in banks.
There are ten breast milk banks across the United States, where mothers can donate their extra milk for other women’s babies.
Experts say breast milk is the best food for babies. The World Health Organization says it is the only food babies should get during the first six months of life, in most cases. Breast milk is especially important for babies born too early. Sometimes these premature babies must stay in the hospital for many weeks.
James Cameron is a doctor who treats newborns at Lutheran Children’s Hospital in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He says breast milk is almost like medicine. Doctor James Cameron says, “The fact is that there are so many different proteins and specialized sugars in the breast milk that the mom’s able to make that help provide immunity (免疫力). It’s very important for the health of the newborn.”
Lucy Baur lives near Fort Wayne. She breastfed both her children and always had more milk than they needed. She wanted to donate to the Indiana Mothers Milk Bank in Indianapolis. But freezing and shipping milk can be costly. Then, a donor station opened near her home.
Milk donations in the United States work like this. Donors must be willing to provide almost three liters of breast milk. They freeze the milk and take it to the station. There, employees warm the milk and mix it with other mothers’ milk. Then, the milk is heated to kill bacteria. After that, the technicians test samples of all the milk to make sure it is safe and healthful. The milk is re-frozen and sent to the main milk bank. The milk bank transports the milk to hospitals to feed premature or sick babies.
Donors are tested for diseases before any milk is accepted. They are not permitted to smoke tobacco, use illegal drugs or drink too much alcohol.
【小题1】According to the passage, which thing can also be stored in banks except money, jewels and important documents?
| A．Notes. | B．Diamonds. |
| C．Valuable papers. | D．Breast milk. |
| A．Lucy Baur wanted to donate her milk to the donor station near her home |
| B．the milk is frozen and sent to the milk station after killing bacteria |
| C．the milk bank transports the milk to babies’ home to feed them |
| D．James Cameron is a doctor who feeds the babies on the milk in the milk station |
| A．only it can stop babies from developing diseases |
| B．it contains rich nutrients (营养) babies need |
| C．it is the only food suitable for babies |
| D．it benefits babies as the best medicine |
| A．A heavy smoker. | B．A heavy drinker. |

Today we can use the Internet for many things: shopping, business, writing letters, talking to people, getting information and so on. In recent years, a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. There's no real word for it yet, so we call it e-talk.
People don't like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases into a few letters， acronyms(首字母缩略词). Acronyms are often used in chat rooms. Some are as follows:
BRB (be right back), BTW (by the way), LOL (laughing out loud), IMO (in my opinion)
People also use many abbreviations. They are shortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations include info (information), pic (picture), puter (computer), sec (second), etc.
We usually don't see people when we communicate on the Net, so people have new ways to show feelings. Most people use their keyboards to draw "feelings", such as:
:-) (happy) ;-) (joking) :-( (sad) :-O (surprised)
These days, many public discussions have picture feelings, for example:
(happy) (sad) (angry) ( (cool)
There are even whole new words, like "newbies"(someone who is new on a chat board or forum). When you write something bad about someone else, it's called "burning" the person.
It takes time for people to get used to e-talk. Also, different groups on the Net have their own special ways of communicating. Newbies sometimes have to ask other people what they mean. As the Internet grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change.
【小题1】Why do people type acronyms?
| A．To type them quickly. | B．To make jokes. |
| C．To make newbies puzzled. | D．To show their feelings. |
| A．The person is happy about getting a new computer. |
| B．The person has to go away from their computer. |
| C．The person is sad that his computer is having problems. |
| D．The person is angry at somebody. |
D. 
| A．stay the same |
| B．keep changing |
| C．be used by people on the telephone |
| D．be easy for newbies to understand |
| A．E-talk | B．Picture Feelings |
| C．How to Use Abbreviations | D．The Changing Internet |

Mr. Ma, a famous mental doctor from Beijing once said at an important meeting, “Now many young students can have problems with their minds.

Parents and teachers should care more about this problem.”

We may know that there are four basic periods for human beings to pass through when you enter and live in another country. This process(变化过程) helps you deal with culture shock(文化冲击).
Culture shock begins with the "honeymoon period". This is the time when you first arrive in a place where everything about the new cu1ture is strange and exciting. You see new things, hear new sounds and language, eat new kinds of food. This period can last for quite a long time because you feel very happy.
Unluckily, the second period can be more difficu1t. After you have got used to your new life, you can become very tired and begin to miss your motherland, your family, your friends, your pets and so on. Al1 the little prob1ems in life seem to be much bigger and more worrying when you face them in a foreign country. This period can be very difficult and lead to moving backwards quickly.
The third period is called the "adjustment(调整) period". This is When you begin to realize that things are not so bad in the new country. Your sense of humor usually becomes stronger and you realize you are becoming stronger by 1earning to take care of yourself in the new place. Things are still difficult, but you are now a survivor(善于求生者).
The fourth period can be cal1ed "at ease at last". Now you feel quite comfortable in your new place. You can deal with most problems that you have. You may still have prob1ems with language,but you know you are strong enough to deal with them. At this time, you may feel a little uncomfortable if you go back to your motherland.
