How many times have parents had to ague
with their young son or daughter about getting
their face out of their phone and
focusing on the world around them It's completely
normal for
parents of growing children
to be concerned about
their child's
safely, but is their 31 to social
media
really harming them.
Social
media was created to connect people with others
online and has recently been added
to
smartphones, making it fat more accessible than it
32 was. This new way to easily be able to
use
social
media
has
encouraged
children
and
teens
to
begin
to
use
sites
such
as
Facebook,
Twitter
and
Instagram
frequently.
Maturing
teens
and
children
are
usually
very
timid
when
it
comes to 33 with their families, which
they sometimes view as

However,
when
they
use
social
media
for
a
large
amount
of
time,
parents
lend

social media for 35 their attention.

teens don't seem
to understand that. When they see their child
using Twitter or Instagram they
think

what is
currently happening in the
modem world
Children and
teens are 37 accused for using social media only
for entertainment purposes
and
for
huge

time.
Sure,
everyone
who
uses
social
media
enjoys
contacting
their
friends and viewing
entertaining things, but how come children receive

Social
media as a whole has both positive and negative

Section A
Directions: For each blank in the
following passage there are four words or phrases
marked A, B,
C and D. Fill in each
blank with the word or phrase that best fits the
context.
Your boss tells you
that you did a bad job. Your coworker criticizes
you in front of your whole
team. Ouch!
It's not easy to take criticism, no matter who it
comes from. But, it is easy to _41_

blow when you offer criticism to someone in

your attitude, you can help someone
grow instead of making them feel 42.
Phrases like

won't really listen to anything you have to
say.

the criticism, warm the person up with 45 .If you

Korean Americans at GBS High
School
Glenbrook South (GBS)
High School is in a suburb of Chicago, Illinois,
in the United States. It
is an award-
winning school with a highly competent teaching
staff. It has over 400 Asian Pacific.
American
students-over
17
percent
of
die
students
in
the
school.
Of
these,
the
majority
are
Korean American. This is very unusual
in a state where Korean Americans are less than 1
percent
of the population. The
interactions of the Korean American students at
UBS were the subject of
an article in
Asian Week magazine.
Different
Korean
American
students
react
differently
to
being
in
a
high
school
were
most
students are white. Professor Pyong Gap
Min, an expert on Korean life in America, believes
that
Korean
Americans
in
this
situation
can
sometimes
feel
inhibited
or
ashamed
of
their
Korean
identity. Asian Week
interviewed a number of GBS students, and each had
a different attitude.
Alice
18 years old
I used to spend
time only with Korean American friends Although I
felt secure with those
friends, I found
myself motivated to form closer relationship with
non-Koreans, too. I felt I was
missing
out on new experiences and challenges.
Paul 16 years old
I have some Korean American friends,
but I spend most of my time with white friends.
I
’
m
often the
only Asian American in the group, but I
don
’
t mind. What I like
about the white culture
is that I can
be more radical. I can be as loud and funny as I
want to be. I don
’
t see as
much of
that among the Asian
students.
John 17 years
old
In junior high school, most
of my friends were white. After coming to GBS, my
sense of my
Korean American identity
was restored, and I decided to have mainly Korean
American friends. I
feel that my Korean
American friends and I mainly understand each
other better. For example, we
understand about severe parental
pressures to succeed at school; I felt my white
friends
couldn’t
really
understand.
Without
belittle(
轻视)
the importance
of what these students had to say, it
’s
imp
ortant to
remember that
their opinions at this phase of their lives ate
bound to change as they grow into
adulthood. But these honest opinions
can help us better understand issues of culture
relations,
and their honesty might help
Americans from different cultural groups to get
along better in the
future.
。
56.
The passage mainly discusses
.
A.
how Korean American students interact among
themselves and with others
B. why Illinois is a very special
state
C. how an Illinois
high school welcomes Korean American
students
D. different
opinions of the friends of Korean American
students

attitude

her white friends
don’t really
understand h

B.
She likes her Korean American friends but wants to
have non-Korean friends too.
C. She feels she is missing out on
experiences with her Korean American
fiends.
D. She
doesn
’t fe

relationships with non-Koreans.

probably means
A.
timid
B. expressive

The
documentary Blood Lions shows South Africa's cruel
canned hunts, lions are raised by
humans and kept in enclosed spaces on private
hunting areas.
Hunters can get trophy
(战利品)
easily in exchange for
fees of up to $$50, 000. There are about
8,000 ranch lions in South Africa. So
the country
’s
hunt operators
can make a fortune.
Ian
Michler was a lead character in the film. He
talked about Blood Lions last July when it
was shown in Durban, South Africa. The
film has since been viewed in 185 countries. More
than
50 screenings have been held at
film festivals and in meetings of special interest
groups. This year,
Blood Lions will be
shown at every major tourism conference in Europe
and Africa.
Outside the
film, Michler and the team are running a global
campaign. They are aiming at
ending
canned hunts and other cold-blooded activities
involving lions and other animals.
Australia
became
the first
country,
in
February 2015,
to
forbid
imports
of
lion
trophies.
It
was
followed
by
France
in
November,
That
month,
Blood
Lions
was
shown
in
the
European
Parliament.
As
a
result,
the
government
of
Finland,
Italy,
and
Spain
decided
to
hold
their
own
screenings. There are a
number of other countries likely to do the
same.
At
