There is an old saying that all of us are born with two bags hung on our necks. A small bag in front of our chest is filled up with other people's faults (过错), while the big one at the back is full of our own shortcomings (短处).

So it’s easy to find other people's faults, but it's hard for us to see our faults behind us.

There was a boy, Tommy, who always opened the front bag to check what was in it. He saw other people's faults very quickly. When Simon was impatient with him, he said to Simon, "It's so easy for you to get angry. It is hard to be friends with you."

He told his mother about Jack's dishonesty. “Jack takes my things without asking. He also forgets to return them.” Tommy himself did not like sharing his things with anyone.

When Johnny was too tired to play with him, he said, "'You are such a rude person."

He thought Harry was too proud of his rich parents. But Tommy was proud of himself because he could not see any of his own shortcomings! He could not understand why he did not get on well with others.

If only Tommy would switch the bags around, he would discover his own impatience, dishonesty, bad manners and vanity (虚荣), which were no better than that of Simon, Jack, Johnny or Harry.

( ) 58. Tommy thought it was hard to be friends wit h Simon because Simon was ________.

A. impatient B. a rude person C. dishonest D. too proud of his rich parents

( ) 59. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. Tommy was a person liked by others.

B. Tommy liked sharing his things with others.

C. Tommy always discovered his own shortcomings.

D. Maybe Tommy was no better than Simon, Jack, Johnny or Harry.

( ) 60. In this passage, the writer mainly wanted to tell us ________.

A. to be more patient

B. not to be a person with vanity

C. not to take others' things without asking

D. to pay more attention to our own shortcomings

D

Multitasking (多任务处理)

Being able to multitasking ---doing several things at the same time ---- is considered a welcome skill by most people. But if we consider the situation of the young people aged from eight to eighteen, we should think again.

What we often see nowadays is that young people juggle a larger number of electronic devices (电子产品) as they study. While working, they also surf on the Internet, send out emails, answer the telephone and listen to music on their iPads. In a sense, they are spending a large amount of time in fruitless efforts as they multitask.

Multitasking is even changing the relationship between family members. As young people give so much attention to their own worlds, they seem to have no time to spend with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house, nor can they eat at the family table.

Multitasking also has an effect on young people’s performance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the efforts of modern gadgets (器具) on their performance of tasks, many young people gave a positive(肯定的) response (回应). However, the response from the worlds of education and business was not quite as positive. Educators feel that multitasking by children has a serious effect on later development of study skills. They believe that many college students now need help to improve their study skills. Similarly, employers (雇主) feel that young people entering the job market need to be taught all over again, as modern gadgets have made it unnecessary for them to learn special skills to do their work.

( ) 61. What does the underlined word “juggle” most probably mean?

A. Want to buy B. Use at the same time

C. Take the place of D. Search information from

( ) 62. In Paragraph 3, the writer points out that ________.

A. family members do not greet each other

B. family members do not eat at the family table

C. young people get on well with their families

D. young people hardly communicate with their family members

( ) 63. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?

A. Young people must learn skills for future jobs.

B. Young people benefit (获益) a lot from modern gadgets.

C. Multitasking is an important skill to young people.

D. Multitasking influences young people’s development seriously.

( ) 64. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Young people think multitasking is good for their study and work.

B. Employers consider it unnecessary for young people to be taught all over again

C. Educators feel that young people don’t need to improve their study skills.

D. People from the world of education believe multitasking has a good effect on children’s later study skills.

( ) 65. The writer develops (阐述) the passage mainly by ________.

A. providing special examples

B. following the natural time order

C. giving out a cause and analyzing (分析) its effects

D. comparing opinions from different worlds

听第二篇短文,回答16-20小题。

In order to learn what the students’ life was like at night, I made a survey about it. I asked twenty students in our class what they were doing last night. Here are some of the results:

Jim said he was doing his homework between seven and nine. Then he watched TV for an hour. Mike was doing the same thing from seven to nine. Then he went to bed. Jane spent one hour on her homework. Between eight and nine thirty she was practicing playing the piano. It only took Bill about half an hour to finish his homework from seven. Then he played computer games for nearly three hours. He didn’t go to bed until eleven.

According to the results, most students have to spend one to two hours on their homework. That’s to say their main activity is doing homework.
