Each passage is followed by 6 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEETPassage OneLoneliness has been linked to depression and other health problems. Now, a study says it can also spreadA friend of a lonely person was 52% more likely to develop feelings of loneliness. And a friend of that friend was 25% more likely to do the sameEarlier findings showed that happiness, fatness and the ability to stop smoking can also grow like infections within social groups. The findings all come from a major health study in the American town of Framingham, MassachusettsThe study began in 1948 to investigate the causes of heart disease. Since then, more tests have been added, including measures of loneliness and depressionThe new findings involved more than 5,000 people in the second generation of the Framingham Heart Study. The researchers examined friendship histories and reports of loneliness. The results established a parted that spread as people reported fewer close friendsFor example, loneliness can affect relationships between next-door neighbors. The loneliness spreads as neighbors who were close friends now spend less time together. The study also found that loneliness spreads more easily among women than menResearchers from the University of Chicago, Harvard and the University of California, San Diego, did the study. The findings appeared last month in the Journal of Personality and Social PsychologyThe average person is said to experience feelings of loneliness about 48 days a year. The study found that having a lonely friend can add about 17 days. But every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about 5%, or two and a half daysLonely people become less and less trusting of others. This makes it more and more difficult for them to make friends-and more likely that society will reject themJohn Cacioppo at the University of Chicago led the study. He says it is important to recognize and deal with loneliness. He says people who have been pushed to the edges of society should receive help to repair their social networksThe aim should be to aggressively create what he calls a “protective barrier” against loneliness. This barrier, he says, can keep the whole network from coming apart31Besides loneliness, which of the following can also spread among people? AFriendshipBHappiness CDepressionDSmoking32The Framingham Heart Study starting from 1948 _ Aexpanded its research topics Binvolved 5,000 patients of depression Cidentified loneliness as one key factor for heart disease Dexamined the relationship between loneliness and depression33Which of the following is true about the spread of loneliness?AIt leads to a gradual loss of friendsBIt is a common phenomenon among womenCIt is often found in the neighborhoodDIt ruins the relationships between close friends34Having a lonely friend, you are more likely to _ Astrengthen your friendship Bdevelop new friendship Cincrease the sense of loneliness Dreduce the sense of loneliness35According to John Cacioppo at the University of Chicago, loneliness can _ Aresult in aggressivenessBcause people to be overprotectiveCinfect social networksDpush people to the verge of poverty36What is the main idea of the passage?ALoneliness can spreadBLoneliness is linked to depressionCLonely people tend to grow fatDLonely people need more friendsPassage TwoCalifornia has a new program called the Digital Textbook Initiative“Starting this fall with high school math and science, we will be the first state in the nation to provide schools with a state-approved list of digital textbooks” That was Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in June，talking about his effort to get schools to use materials available free online. He listed reasons why he thinks digital textbooks make senseCalifornia approves traditional textbooks in six-year eyeless. Digital ones can offer the latest information. They lighten the load of school bags. They save paper and trees, and make learning more fun and interactive. And above all, he said, they help schools with their financesThe state has had to make severe cuts in school spending because of deep financial problems. More than six million students attend California public schoolsEarlier this year, California invited content developers to offer digital math and science materials for high schools. These had to meet at least 90% of the states learning requirements. Specially trained teachers examined 16 textbooks and approved ten of themSix of the ten were published by the CK 12 Foundation, a nonprofit group that had been developing digital science and math books for about two years. The foundation paid teachers and other education professionals to write and edit them. The money came from a group financed by the Khosla FamilyCalifornia cannot require schools to use the digital textbooks. Individual school districts will have to decide for themselvesSusan Martimo, a California Department of Education official, says she does not expect widespread use right away, Her best guess is that some schools with a lot of technology will be the first to use them, but only in addition to their traditional booksSchool administrators point out that the texts may be free online, but students need a way to access them. Not everyone has a computer or electronic reader. Schools could print out copies, but that would not help the environment. Also, there is the cost to train teachers to use digital textbooks effectively37The Digital Textbook Initiative _ Awill probably take effect in six yearsBcovers all the high school subjectsChas been approved by all statesDis advocated by California state governor38The main reason for promoting digital textbooks is to _ Ahelp save moneyBbenefit the environmentCprovide interesting materialsDreduce students heavy burden39The digital textbooks were approved by _ Atrained teachersBcontent developersCKhosla FamilyDCK 12 Foundation40What is true of CK 12 Foundation?AIt produced 16 digital textbooksBIt paid teachers to write digital textbooksCIt is financed by California state governmentDIt makes money through developing digital textbooks41According to Susan Martimo, digital textbooks _ Aare not l
