Different students have different ideas about freedom(自由), true friends, love, honesty and so on.
Chen Cheng, 13, a boy from Jiangsu: I think I need a true friend. I had some friends before. However, it seemed that they didn’t regard me as their friends. I told them my secrets but they didn’t share theirs with me. I hope to find a true friend who can share happiness and sadness with me.
Gan Xiaoning, 14, a girl from Heilongjiang: Freedom is what I want most. I am a bird in two cages. In school, I have to follow the school’s rules and listen to teachers. At home, my parents don’t allow me to do what I like, either.
Yuan Siyu,15, Guangxi: I am a boy from a poor family. My father works very hard to support the family. I want to go to a college so that I can find a good job in the future.
Qu Yi,14, a girl from Hebei: I want a complete family. My father died of cancer three years ago. Since then, I have had no chance to be together with my parents any more. I admire my classmates who live with their parents.
Have you ever had problems in your life and don’t know how to be happy? If so ,you will find “Being a Happy Teenager” by Australian writer Andrew Matthews useful. In his book, Matthews tells us how to have a happy life and answers the questions of teenagers.
The book says we should stop being angry. The book tells us some useful skills. For example, if you want to make your memory(记忆) better, you can put what you have learned into pictures of your mind. Many teenagers think that happiness comes from a good exam result or praise from other people. But you can still be happy when there are no such “good” things.
Success comes from a good attitude(态度). If you learn from problems, you have success in the future. Some school boys have problems such as being too tall or too short, but Matthews tells us happiness comes from thinking about things in a positive way.
If you are tall , you can get a better view(视线) at the movie. If you are short, your clothes and shoes take less room in your bedroom! This is Matthews’ most important lesson : you choose to be happy!

My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, WE USED 2go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr 3 :-@ KIDS FTF. ILNY, its gr8.
Can you understand this sentence? If you can’t, don’t feel too bad: neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: the language of computerized communication found on Internet or cellphones. To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language. So, what is the “translation” of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York; it’s great.
School teachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming(破坏) the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes can be seen in students’ writing. They fear the language could become corrupted(面目全非的).
Everyone should just relax, say linguists(语言学家). They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nunberg, from Stanford University, agrees. “People get better at writing by writing,” he says. “Kids who are now doing text messaging, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents.”
Linguist James Milroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And you can bet your bottom dollar that when today’s teenagers become tomorrow’s parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become “corrupted”; they simply change to meet the new needs.
However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says, “I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it’s important that they get across to their pupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future.”
Perhaps, we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway. Erin, age 12, says, “I wouldn’t use text language in my homework. Text is just for fun.” What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?
| A．To give an example of foreign paragraph. |
| B．To show an example of creative method. |
| C．To express worries about using Netspeak. |
| D．To lead in the topic of Netspeak. |
Which of the following is true according to the passage?
| A．Cynthia McVry points out teenagers can deal with Netspeak properly. |
| B．Geoffrey Nunberg believes Netspeakers can write Standard English. |
| C．David Crystal thinks Netspeak helps develop the habit of writing. |
| D．James Milroy says that language is changing and improving. |
The expression “bet your bottom dollar” in paragrap5 means______________.
| A．be fairly sure | B．be greatly surprised |
| C．think it a pity | D．find it interesting |
What can be the best title for the passage?
| A．Netspeak: A Widely-Used Language on Internet |
| B．Is Netspeak Harming the English Language? |
| C．Is Netspeak Helpful in Language Learning? |
| D．Netspeak Advantages and Disadvantages |
