A
One of India’s top engineering schools has restricted Internet access in its boarding houses, saying addiction to surfing, gaming and blogging was affecting students’ performance, making them lonely and even suicidal.
Authorities at the best Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Mumbai said students had stopped socializing and many were late for morning classes or slept through them. “Now, a student doesn’t even know who lives two doors away from him because he is so busy on the Internet,” said Prakash Gopalan, dean of Student Affairs. “The old dormitory culture of companionship and socializing among students is gone. This is not healthy in our opinion.”
IIT-Mumbai, with about 5,000 students, is one of the seven IITs across India which are considered to be among the finest engineering schools in the world. They are also a talent pool for global technology giants. But their hard courses, tough competition and lonely campus lifestyle have taken an effect on students. Depressive and dysfunctional lifestyles are known to be common among IIT students, and at least nine have committed suicide in the past five years. Students have unlimited free Internet access in their boarding houses to help them in their studies, but many also use it to surf, chat, download movies and music, blog and for gaming.
“Starting Monday, Internet access will be banned between 11 p.m. and 12:30 p.m. at IIT-Mumbai’s 13 boarding buildings to encourage students to sleep early and to try and force them out of their shells.” Gopalan said. But the move has not gone down well with students who say they hate their lives being regulated. “Now they will say we need to listen to a lullaby (摇篮曲) to go to sleep.” said Rajiv, an electronics student.
1、What may happen to the students addicted to the Internet in IIT-Mumbai?
A．Feel lonely and even suicidal. B．Perform well in studies.
C．Know their classmates better. D．Participate in social activities.
2、What does the underlined word “dysfunctional” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A．unpopular B．meaningful
C．abnormal D．exciting
3、What measures have been taken in IIT-Mumbai?
A．Students must go to bed before 11 p.m.
B．Students are forbidden to surf the Internet on campus.
C．Students have unlimited free Internet access in their dormitories.
D．Internet access is unavailable in deep night in boarding buildings.
4、What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．All electronics students hate the banning order.
B．Some students complain about the banning order.
C．There is no Internet access on the IIT campus ever since.
D．More students prefer listening to music to surfing the Internet.

B
It was rainy, and I had no desire to drive up the winding mountain road to my daughter Carolyn’s house. But she had insisted that I come to see something at the top of the mountain.
So here I was, reluctantly making the two-hour journey through fog that hung like veils. By the time I saw how thick it was near the summit, I’d gone too far to turn back.
Nothing could be worth this, I thought as I inched along the dangerous highway.
“I’ll stay for lunch, but I’ m heading back down as soon as the fog lifts,” I announced when I arrived.
“But I need you to drive me to the garage to pick up my car,” Carolyn said, “Could we at least do that?”

“How far is it?” I asked.
“About three minutes,” she said, “I’ll drive—I’m used to it.”
After ten minutes on the mountain road, I looked at her anxiously. “I thought you said three minutes.”
She grinned. “This is a detour.”
Turning down a narrow track, we parked the car and got out. We walked along a path that was thick with old pine needles. Huge black-green evergreens towered over us. Gradually, the peace and silence of the place began to fill my mind.
Then we turned a comer and stopped—and I gasped in amazement.
From the top of the mountain, sloping for several acres across the mountain side and valleys, were rivers of flowers in numerous colors. It looked as though the sun had tipped over and spilled gold down the mountainside.
A series of questions filled my mind. Who created such beauty? Why? How?
As we approached the home that stood in the center of the property, we saw a sign that read: “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking.”
The first answer was: “One Woman—Two Hands, Two Feet, and Very Little Brain.” The second was: “One at a Time.” The third: “Started in 1958.”
As we drove home, I was so moved by what we had seen. I could scarcely speak. “She changed the world.” I finally said, “one bulb (球茎) at a time. She started almost 40 years ago, probably just the beginning of an idea, but she kept at it.”
The wonder of it would not let me go. “Imagine,” I said, “if I’d had a vision and worked at it, just a little bit every day, what might I have accomplished?”
Carolyn looked at me sideways, smiling. “Start tomorrow,” she said. “Better yet, start today.”
1、What was the weather like when the author drove to visit her daughter?
A．It was snowing. B．It was foggy.
C．It was freezing. D．It was sunny.
2、What can be inferred about the daughter?
A．She told a white lie to her mother.

D．She knew everything about the woman.
3、The mother began to enjoy herself when ________.
A．they were driving in the car
B．they were at the garage
C．they were on their way back
D．they were walking in the woods
4、Which of the following can best describe the owner of the property?
A．Crazy and silly. B．Determined and persistent.
C．Brave and careful. D．Beautiful and courageous.
5、What do you think the mother will do after this visit?
