What can you do on the Internet? Many of us like to read the news, buy things and play games. Some students now have a new use for the Internet –helping them with their homework.

Tina, 14, from Shenzhen, Guangdong, often searches online for the answers to her math problems. She said sometimes she and even her parents don’t know the answers to the problems, so she has to turn to the Internet.

“I can see how other people work out these problems and learn from them,” Tina said. “It’s easy and saves time.”

But not all the students welcome this. Leo, 15, from Hangzhou, Zhejiang, thinks it may make students stop thinking.

“We should think over the problems first. Simply copying the answers won’t improve our abilities. ” he said.

In the eyes of Wang Zhaoming, a Shanghai teacher, the success of all this is down to the students. If they use the Internet properly (适当地), it could be a good tool for study, Wang said.

“Students should first think about the problems by themselves. As for the

online answers, they should choose the best among different ones. The most important thing is to know the logic (逻辑) behind the answers,” he said. “Don’t be shy to ask teachers and classmates the next day if you don’t understand the answer.”

58. According to the passage, it’s a new use for students to ___________ on the Internet.

A. buy things

B. play games

C. help with homework

D. read news

59. The right order to use the Internet to help with our homework is ____________.

②Search the answers on the Internet;

③Think about the problems by ourselves;

④Try to understand the logic behind the answer you’ve chosen.

A. ①②③④

B. ③②①④

C. ②③①④

D.④③②①

60. In Leo’s opinion, searching online for the answers may _______________.

A. make students simply copy the answers instead of thinking

B. help solve the problems between students and their parents

C. be a good tool of study if students use the Internet properly

D. improve the students’ different abilities

61. The best title of this passage is_____________.

A. How to use the Internet

C. Is Internet bad or good for students

D. Computers or teachers

D

Nothing beats sitting down in front of the TV with some delicious candy or tasty French fries.

Recently, an online list of favorite snacks in China became popular. It says that peanuts (花生), walnuts (核桃) and chocolate are good for our health, but jelly (果冻), potato chips and lollipops (棒棒糖) are “bad” for us.

Kids, though, hardly care if the snacks are good or bad for their health. They love them either way. Some snacks often have special importance in a certain country or culture.

Potato chips and French fries are very popular in the US. They are cheap and tasty. People don’t need to wait for a long time to eat it. Popcorn is another common snack. People love eating it when they are watching sports games or visiting the amusement park. Most cinemas sell it to attract customers.

In the UK, kids often sit down for snacks after school. They call this “afternoon tea”. A traditional afternoon tea in cludes biscuits (饼干) and tea. People also have scones (烤饼) with jam and cream, which is probably the most classic English snack.

In South Korea, Choco Pie is one of the most popular snacks. It’s also a favorite of soldiers. The sweet snack makes them happy and helps them get through hard times.

However, it is not just about what you eat as a snack –it’s how much you eat and when. Chips and French fries are high in calories(卡路里) and eating too much

may make you fat. Sweet snacks like candy and chocolate are high in sugar and eating a lot may give you bad teeth.

62. From the passage, we can know popular snacks in different countries except_______.

A. China

B. Canada

C. America

D. England

63. The Chinese meaning of the phrase “get through”in this passage is probably________.

A. 通过

B. 完成

C. 熬过

D. 穿越

64. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The snacks including peanuts, walnuts and jelly are bad for our health.

B. People love to eat popcorn when they are watching movies.

C. A traditional afternoon tea includes pies and tea.

D. If you want to have good teeth, you can have more candy and chocolate.

65. According to the passage, we need to care about ____________

A. why we eat snacks

B. where we eat snacks

D. who we eat snacks with D. how much snacks we eat
