A
When I was in elementary school, I got into a major argument (争论) with a boy in my class. I have never forgotten the lesson I learnt that day.
The teacher brought us up to the front of the classroom and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large and round object. I could clearly see that it was black. She asked the boy what colour the object was. "White," he answered.
I couldn't believe (相信) he said the object was white, when it was obviously (明显地) black! The argument about the colour of the object started between my classmate and me.
The teacher told me to go and stand where the boy had been and told him to come and stand where I had been. We changed places, and then she asked me what the colour of the object was. I
had to answer, "White."
It was an object with two differently coloured sides, and from his viewpoint it was white. Only
from my side was it black.
Sometimes we need to look at the problem from the other person s view in order to truly know his / her idea.

Tokyo is one of the most confusing cities in the world. Over 20 million people live and work in the Tokyo area, and many world-famous companies have their offices there. But most streets don't have names. So how can you find your way in Tokyo?
Most people in Tokyo are very good at giving directions. They can usually explain(说明) how to get to their home or their office from the nearest train station. People in Tokyo often use maps when they give directions.
Advertisements in newspapers or magazines, for example, usually have a small map to help you find the company. If you are going to visit someone's house, it's a good idea to ask the person to draw a map of the local area. If you get lost, the best idea is to go to a police station. In Japan,
each neighborhood has a small police station, and the police officers there have a map of all the buildings in the area. Giving directions is an important part of their job.

To have a healthy vision, it's a good idea to set rules for your children when it comes to the amount of time they spend in front of the computer.
1. Have your child's vision checked. Before starting school, every child should have an eye exam, including near-point (computer and reading) and distance testing.
2. Control the amount of time. Your child may spend all his or her spare time on the computer without a break. Encourage kids to take 20-second breaks from the computer every 20 minutes to reduce (减少) the development of eye focusing problems. (Some eye doctors call this the "20-20 rule".)
3. Check the workstation. For young and small children, make sure the computer workstation is adjusted(调整) to their body size. The right distance between the monitor and the eye for children is 18 to 28 inches. Viewing the computer screen closer than 18 inches can make the eyes
nervous.
4. Check the lighting. To reduce glare (刺眼的光), windows and other light sources should not be directly visible when sitting in front of the monitor. Reduce the amount of lighting in the room to match the computer screen.
( ) 46. What does the underlined word "vision" mean?
A. The ability to think.
B. The ability to see.
C. The ability to dream.
D. The ability to hear.
( ) 47. What is the 20-20 rule?
A. Take 20-second breaks every 20 seconds.
B. Take 20-second breaks every 2 minutes.
C. Take 20-minute breaks every 20 minutes.
D. Take 20-second breaks every 20 minutes.
( ) 48. Which of the following is NOT right about the distance between the eye and the monitor?
A. 17 inches.
B. 27 inches.
C. 19 inches.
D. 21 inches.
( ) 49. What is the advice before starting school?
A. Checking the lighting.
B. Checking the workstation.
C. Checking the child's vision.
D. Controlling the amount of time.

Most parents love the Internet and want their kids to use it. But a new survey (调查) in America finds many parents are also afraid of the online world. They worry that their kids will get in trouble with people they meet online.
The study was done online from May 5 to May 10 by Insight Research Group. It says 80% of parents are worried about kids meeting bad people online. That's because young people who largely have grown up with the Net think of it as a way of showing personal feelings. To young people, the benefits (好处) of giving out some personal information to online friends outweigh (超过) the risks (风险). And, the study shows they are so comfortable with the Internet that 78% of them have a personal website or blog.
Parents also realize the importance of the Internet. The survey shows 91% think the Net helps their children show their feelings, and 77% think the Internet is one of the most valuable education tools that children have. But 88% think it's important to know what their kids are doing online. Findings show both parents and children need more education about using the Internet.
( ) 51. Who is afraid of the online world?
A. Students.
B. Parents.
C. Teachers.
D. Scientists.
( ) 52. Why may young people get in trouble with people they meet online?
A. Because they feel it's good to get on the Internet.
B. Because they look on those people as their real friends.
C. Because they like to make friends with people online.
D. Because they may give out their personal information online.
( ) 53. What is the third paragraph about?
