Libraries give kids a quiet and safe place to read and learn. For over 100 years, libr

aries have played an important role in Americans’ education. But how are these book-filled buildings changing with the times? You may be surprised to find out.

Benjamin Franklin famously founded (创建) America’s first lending library in 1731. But the public library system got its biggest development in the American history in the late 1800’s. Businessman Andrew Carnegie donated millions of dollars to help build free public libraries across the country. Between 1886 and 1919, Carnegie’s donations helped build 1,679 new libraries.

Carnegie believed that libraries could offer the chances to Americans, young and old. He knew that the more libraries there were, the more people would have opportunities to read and use books, speeches and news.

If you can easily find a public library in your community(社区), you’ll get more chances. After all, the United States has 9,225 public libraries. Today, libraries keep growing. Seven tenths of the libraries have free Internet. It provides much more information and opportunities to ask for jobs online.

Libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. The new program Read! Build! Play! adds reading into playtime. As kids listen to a book that is being read aloud, they use Legos (乐高积木) to build images(图像) from the story happily. Today’s libraries are always looking for creative programs to bring people into the library.

Benjamin Franklin once said, “The doors of wisdom(智慧) are never shut.” As long as the doors of public libraries are open, what he said is most certainly correct!

A.1731 B.1800 C.1886 D.1919

Teenagers are spending more money than ever. Just last year, 31.6 million teens spent 155
billion, according to the Northbrook, Illinois-based market research group Teenage Research Unlimited. Much of that money, of course, comes from parents.

Shocked at how much money kids spend? Maybe you haven't checked the price tags lately on some of the younger generation's must-haves.

To some, such extravagant spending on the notoriously fickle young might seem outrageous. Why do some parents give in?

One factor is surely the sheer power of marketing through mass media. According to the group Adbusters, teenagers are exposed to an estimated 3,000 advertisements each day. Combine the ads with programming itself, like the fashion-, music- and skin-filled shows on MTV, and you've got a barrage of messages telling kids what they should own if they want to fit in.

"The pressures on parents today are enormous," says Tom Vogele, a single father of twin 18-year-old girls in Newport Beach, Calif. "I truly believe it is harder today to raise children without spoiling them, not because parents are less capable or lazy,' but because so many forces are working against me."

Many working parents probably compensate by spending money on their kids, says Timothy Marshall, an associate professor of developmental psychology at Christopher Newport University in Virginia. For some, there is probably some guilt involved in not spending enough time at home. But, adds Marshall, spending money is also often more convenient in our fast-paced society than going to baseball games or other activities.

"It's easier to say let's go out and spend some money, in terms of finding time in a busy schedule to spend with kids," Marshall said.

For many families, of course, keeping up with their children's costly demands for designer clothing, CDs, and concert tickets is a financial impossibility. Even for those families who can afford such lavish spending, striking a compromise between spoiling the kids and denying them is tricky, but possible.

Teaching kids how to budget and save is key, Marshall says. Instead of just giving children the toys or clothing they desire, give them an allowance and show them how they can save up for whatever they want, he says.

And don't be afraid to just say no, Marshall adds. "We need to step up and tell kids where the boundaries are, that's part of our responsibility as parents," he said.

In the first paragraph, "Northbrook" is most probably______.

A.a market research company based in Illinois

B.a spokesman for the Teenage Research Unlimited

C.the base of the Teenage Research Unlimited

D.the city where the spending survey was carried out

听力原文: In Hollywood, everybody wants to be rich, famous and beautiful. Nobody wants to be old, unknown and poor. For Hollywood kids, life can be difficult, because they grow up in such an unreal atmosphere. Their parents are ambitious and the children are part of the parents' ambitions. Parents pay for wasteful grand parties, expensive cars and designer clothes.

When every dream can come true, kids don't learn the value of anything because they have everything. A thirteen-year-old boy, Trent Maguire, has a driver, credit cards and unlimited cash to do what he wants when he wants to. "One day, I'll earn more than my dad!" he boasts. Parents buy care and attention for the children because they have no time to give it themselves. Amanda's mother employs a personal trainer, a bodyguard, a singing coach and a counselor to look after all her fifteen-year-old daughter's needs.

Often there is no parent at home most days, so children decide whether to make their own meals or go out to restaurants, when to watch television or do homework. They organize their own social lives. They play no childhood games. They become adults before they're ready. Hollywood has always been the city of dreams. The kids there live unreal lives where money, beauty and pleasure are the only gods. Will children around the world soon start to think the same? Or do they already?

Questions:

Why is life said to be difficult for Hollywood kids?

What does the speaker say about Trent Maguire, a thirteen-year-old boy?

Why does Amanda's mother employ other people to look after her needs?

What will probably have negative effects on the lives of Hollywood kids?

(33)

A.The atmosphere they live in is rather unreal.

B.Their parents put too much pressure on them.

C.It's hard for them to get along with other kids.

D.They have to live in the shadow of their parents.

根据下面资料,回答下列各题。 Theyre still kids, and although theres a lot that the experts
dont yet know about them, one thing they do agree on is that what kids use and expect from their world has changed rapidly. And its all because of technology. To the psychologists, sociologists, and generational and media experts who study them, their digital gear sets this new group apart, even from their tech-savvy (懂技术的) Millennial elders. They want to be constantly connected and available in a way even their older siblings dont quite get. These differences may appear slight, but they signal an all-encompassing sensibility that some say marks the dawning of a new generation. The contrast between Millennials and this younger group was so evident to psychologist Larry Rosen of California State University that he has declared the birth of a new generation in a new book, Rewired: Understanding the iGeneration and the Way They Learn, out next month. Rosen says the tech-dominated life experience of those born since the early 1990s is so different from the Millennials he wrote about in his 2007 book, Me, MySpace and I: Parenting the Net Generation, that they warrant the distinction of a new generation, which he has dubbed the "iGeneration". "The technology is the easiest way to see it, but its also a mind-set, and the mind-set goes with the little ‘i, which Im talking to stand for individualized," Rosen says. "Everything is defined and individualized to ‘me. My music choices are defined to me. What I watch on TV any instant is defined to ‘me. " He says the iGeneration includes todays teens and middle-schoolers, but its too soon to tell about elementary-school ages and younger. Rosen says the iGeneration believes anything is possible. "If they can think of it, somebody probably has or will invent it," he says. "They expect innovation." They have high expectations that whatever they want or can use "will be able to be tailored to their own needs and wishes and desires." Rosen says portability is key. They are inseparable from their wireless devices, which allow them to text as well as talk, so they can be constantly connected-even in class, where cellphones are supposedly banned. Many researchers are trying t6 determine whether technology somehow causes the brains of young people to be wired differently. "They should be distracted and should perform. more poorly than they do," Rosen says. "But findings show teens survive distractions much better than we would predict by their age and their brain development. " Because these kids are more immersed and at younger ages, Rosen says, the educational system has to change significantly. "The growth curve on the use of technology with children is exponential(指数的), and we run the risk of being out of step with this generation as far as how they learn and how they think," Rosen says. "We have to give them options because they want their world individualized. " Compared with their Millennial elders, the iGeneration kids

A.communicate with others by high-tech methods continually

B.prefer to live a virtual life than a real one

C.are equipped with more modem digital techniques

D.know more on technology than their elders
