Well, I cantEver since I was little l would go to the library and take out numerous books From picture books to beginning chapter books to YA books, books have always been a part of my life Unlike many people today, I don't own a Kindle or a Nook or any type of e-reader I prefer the old-fashioned book There is something about holding a book and being able to turn the pages that I find comforting In today's 21st century, books may become obsolete For me that's something I find scary I am a fan of the old TV science-fiction series Twilight Zone One episode（一段情节）is about a librarian who has become obsoleteThough this episode aired in 1961, the writer of the series, Rod Serling was exactly on point when it came to predicting the future In fact, in San Antonio, Texas the first-ever bookless library in the country openedThe library is full of iMacs, tablets and iPads which cost a huge $23 millionThe library offers around 10000 e-books So the question is, is this what the future will soon be? Mary Graham, vice president of South Carolina's Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce states, "This is the futureIf you're going to be building new library facilities, this is what you need to be doing" It is our generation that will be the guinea pigs （试验品） of increasing technology like this Is this a good or bad thing? Well, digital libraries may help the environment by not using paper; however, I feel like something will always be lacking with a digital bookA digital library is just the beginning With all of this new technology, people seem to be more absorbed in their own worldOne of my biggest complaints is when I am with my friends and they can't seem to get off their smart phone and talk to me To make plans with a friend and then have them stuck on their phone the whole time is extremely rudeNot only is it disrespectful, but it reflects the direction of where human interactions are headingThough social media is great, it also is addicting and has negative effects Often when I go on Facebook it just makes me feel worse about myself I'll see many of my 800 Facebook friends showing off their newest accomplishment or acceptance to collegeAdditionally, our society is becoming increasingly lazy For instance, instead of doing mental math, people use their phone to solve 89 + 74 It is simple tasks like these that are allowing people to lack important educational and social skills It is up to us to find a balance between technology and human values and interactions With new technology being created every day, we need to learn how to use it alongside our great mindsAfter all, inventions are supposed to benefit society not harm it In the day of technology, who knows what's next?41The underlined word "obsolete" （Paragraph l） is closest in meaning to A outdated B complex C expensive D meaningless42What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?AThe episode still enjoys great popularity nowadaysBRod Serling liked making predictions about the futureCThe situation of books today is similar to what Rod Serling predicted in the episode DThe episode airing in 1961 was the most entertaining of the TV science-fiction series43What can we learn about the library in San Antonio, Texas? A It is the first-ever library in America B It is of no practical use although it costs so much C It holds an exhibition of much electronic equipment D People can read e-books there with the help of the new facilities44Which of the following will the writer probably disagree with?AGreat as social media is, it does have some negative effectsBWith the increasing use of social media, something will actually be lostCThrough social media, people can develop educational and social skills aroundDAs a result of social media, people may communicate less with the people around45The tone of the passage is best described as 46According to the passage, what content do J-14, Twist and Discovery Girls share? A Teen gossip B Advice on fashion C Sports and friendship D Self-respect building47What content does Boys 'Life mainly center on? A Sports B Games C Beauty D Education48We can learn from the passage that AJ-14 is distributed in two editions for teens of different agesBthe content of Discovery Girls is closely related to teen girlsCSeventeen covers aspects like looking good, keeping fit and writing storiesDall the five magazines mentioned publish special editions except Boys 'Life49The main purpose of the introduction to the five magazines is A to distinguish their features B to explain the secret to their popularity C to encourage the subscription to the magazines D to arouse people's interest in reading teen magazinesC During her junior year of high school, Diane Ray's teacher handed her a worksheet and instructed the 17-year-old to map out her future financial life Ray pretended to buy a car, rent an apartment, and apply for a credit card Then, she and her classmates played the "stock market game", investing（投资） the hypothetical（虚拟的） earnings from their hypothetical jobs in the market in the disastrous fall of 2008 "Our pretend investments crashed," Ray says, still frightened "We got to know how it felt to lose money" That pain of earning and losing money is a feeling that public schools increasingly want to teach Forty states now offer some type of financial instruction at the high-school level, teaching students how to balance checkbooks and buy stock in math and social-studies classes Though it's too early to measure the full influence of the Great Recession（大萧条）, the interest in personal-finance classes has risen since 2007 when bank failures started to occur regularly Now, many states including Missouri, Utah, and Tennessee require teenagers to take financial classes to graduate from high school School districts such as Chicago are encouraging money-management classes for kids as young as primary school, and about 300 colleges or universities now offer online personal-finance classes for incoming students "These classes really say, 'This is how you live independently,' " says Ted Beck, president of National Endowment for Financial Education Rather than teach investment methods or financial skills, these courses offer a back-to-the-basics approach to handling money: Don't spend what you don't have Put part of your monthly salary into a savings account, and invest in the stock market for the long-term rather than short-term gains For Ray, this means dividing her earnings from her part-time job at a fast-food restaurant into separate envelopes for paying bills, spending and saving "Money is so hard to make but so easy to spend," she says one weekday after school "That is the big takeaway"Teaching kids about the value of cash certainly is one of the programs' goals, but teachers also want students to think hard about their finances long term It's easy for teenagers to get annoyed about gas prices because many of them drive cars But the hard part is urging them to put off the instant satisfaction of buying a new T-shirt or an iPod "Investing and retirement aren't things teenagers are thinking about For them, the future is this weekend," says Gayle Whitefield, a business and marketing teacher at Uths Riverton High SchoolThats a big goal for these classes: preventing kids from making the same financial missteps their parents did when it comes to saving, spending, and debtThough the personal savings rate has increased up to 42 percent, thats still a far distance from 1982, when Americans saved 112 percent of their incomes“Its hard for schools to reach strict money-management skills when teenagers go home and watch their parents increase credit-card debtIts like telling your kids not to smoke and then lighting up a cigarette in front of them,” Beck saysEven with these challenges, students such as Ray say learning about money in school is worthwhileAfter Ray finished her financial class, she opened up a savings account at her local bank and started to think more about how she and her family would pay for college“She just has a better understanding of money and how it affects the world,” says her mother, Darleenand t
