The face﹣down generation（一代）
If you were born in the 2000s， you are called the oh﹣ohs． The 21st century． That would make you young， creative， connected， world﹣wide， and no doubt smart． Maybe good﹣looking， too． Right？ But what do other people think about your generation？
Some adults worry that you're more interested in the screen in front of you than the world around you． They think of you as the "face﹣down generation" because you use your phone so much． They wonder how you will deal with school， friends， and family．
Other adults worry that today's youth are spoilt（溺爱）and don't want to face the challenges of adult life． Many children born in the 1990s and 2000s were raised by "helicopter parents"． They were always there to guide and help their children with a busy program filled with homework and after﹣school activities such as dancing， drawing， or sports． With parents who do everything for them， today's youth seem to prefer to live like teenagers even when they are in their 20s or 30s．
Does the face﹣down generation need a heads﹣up？ Well， probably not． The fact．is that many of today's teenagers are better educated and more creative than past generations． They seem to be willing to become leaders． More young people than ever volunteer to help their communities． There are also brave young people such as Malala Yousafzai， the teenager who won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for pushing girls' rights to go to school．
So if you're one of the oh﹣ohs， there's reason to be hopeful about the future． Things are looking up for the face﹣down generation． Chances are that you do great and laugh out loud．
（1）If Alice was born in 2004， is she an oh﹣oh？
（2）Why do some adults think of the oh﹣ohs as the "face﹣down generation"？
（3）What are the parents called who always guide and plan everything for their children？
（4）How does the writer organize Paragraph 4？
A． Time order．

（5）What does the writer encourage the oh﹣ohs to do？ Please list TWO．
Nowadays， a new method is used to decide who are the top students in school． The best students are those who not only get high marks， but also follow the rules and the behavior standards for middle school students． Here are some of the new rules and standards．
Tell The truth． Have you ever copied someone else's work on an exam？ If you have， then don't do it again! That's not something an honest student should do． If you have played computer games for two hours in your room， don't tell your parents you were doing homework．
Learn to work together with others． It would be more fun when more people work together． Did you fight with your teammates when your basketball team lost？ Only working together can make your team stronger． Be friendly to the people you are with． Try to think of others， instead of only yourself．
Be open to new ideas． Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon？ Perhaps you'll discover Earth II someday． Don't look down on new ideas． Everyone's ideas are important． You should welcome them， because new ideas make life better for everyone．
Use the Internet carefully． Some websites on the Internet aren't for kids， so make sure to visit the web pages that are good for you． You can visit the websites for fun or homework． Can't you find any good websites for children？
