Something changed a few years ago. Around 2012, teens started to spend their time much differently from the generation before. I started to notice big difference in teen’s b1.and attitudes in the yearly survey of 11 million young people.

A 2017 survey found that two out of three U.S. teens owned an iphone. For this reason, l call them iGen (iphone generation).

What makes iGen different?

Growing up with a smart phone has affected nearly every aspect of their lives. They spend so much time on the internet, texting friends and on social media, an average of about six hours per day, so they have less free time for everything else. That i2.going to parties, shopping at the mall or watching movies with their friends. These were o3.the favorite activities of most teens. But now iGen teens are taking part in these social activities at lower rate than others.

A link that should be noticed

I wondered if these changes might be c4.to their deteriorating(退化）mental health. Sure enough, I found that teens who spend more time on screens are less happy and more disappointed. Meanwhile, a 2017 study asked some adults to give up Facebook felt happier, less l5.and less disappointed during the week as they had more free time for social activities like meeting friends, watching movies,etc.

What else is lost?

Spending less time with friends means less time to develop social abilities. A 2016 study showed that the sixth graders who spent just five days at a camp w6.using screens ended time better at reading expressions on others’ faces.

That isn’t to say that iGen teens don't have a7.. They are physically safer and more tolerant (宽容). They also seem to have a stronger work spirit and more realistic expectations. To

my surprise, the iGen teens I interviewed said they preferred seeing their friends in person to communicating with them using their phones.

But it might be just what iGen needs.

A. tall B. taller C. tallest D. the tallest

D 【解析】句意：迈克现在1.8米高了，他是他班里最高的男孩。tall意思是“高的”，其比较级是在后面加-er，最高级是在后面加-est。三者或三者以上比较要用最高级，根据"He is _________ boy in his class"以及给出选项，可知他是班里最高的男孩，形容词的最高级之前要加定冠词the，故答案选D。

A 【解析】句意：--你能留在这参加聚会吗？--对不起，我不能，我不得不去参加一个重要的会议。A. can't不能；B. mustn't禁止；C. needn't不必；D. shouldn't不应该。问句是以Can开头的一般疑问句，答语要用can/can’t来回答，根据“I have to go to a meeting.”判断，答案是否定的，故答案为A。
