Activities like playing puter games, going on the Net and downloading MP3s are only for the youngsters. Isnt it unfair that older people enjoying a puter game should be frowned（皱眉）upon by their children and grandchildren?Nowadays older people have more control over their lives and they play a full part in society. Moreover, better health care has left more people in their sixties and seventies feeling fit and active after retirement. Mental activity, as well as physical exercise, can contribute to better health. Playing puter games is a very effective way of exercising the brain.When personal puters were first introduced, most older people didnt believe they would ever familiarize themselves with it. Now puters have been around for a few generations and retired people have gradually bee more relaxed about using them for fun. Gamers over 65 prefer playing puzzle games and card games. Kate Stevens, aged 72, says: 揑 find it very relaxing. Its not very demanding, but you still need to concentrate.”Another development that has favored 揼rey games? is a change in the type of videogames available on the market. Theres a greater variety of games to choose from, including more intellectual and plex strategy（策略）and simulation（模拟）games. Internet Chess and Train Simulator are among the most popular of these. Train Simulator is based on real-world rail activities. Players can choose from a variety of challengers, such as keeping to a strict-timetable and using helper engines during a winter storm.Some people argue that 揼rey gamers? simply dont have the skills required for puter games, and that teenagers are better. This couldnt be further from the truth. Most puter games require the kind of analytical thinking that improves with practice, which means that the 揼rey gamers may well be far better than gamers half a century younger than them. 24.

About 6 percent said they are targeted by bullies on campus every day. The survey also found that students from ordinary schools experienced more bullying than peers from key institutions, and children from poor families are more likely to be bullied at school.Being bullied can have a negative impact on a childs personal development and academic performance, according to Zhou Jinyan, a researcher who led the study at Beijing Normal University. 揅hildren being bullied will find it hard to trust others,? Zhou said. 揟hey may often feel anxiety, anger, resentment or depression. These emotions will further undermine their ability to control their own life.”In recent years,bullyingon Chinese campuses has been frequently reported and has attracted widespread attention and concern. The most recent incident to arouse heated discussions took place in December at Beijings Zhongguancun No.2 Primary School. A fourth-grade student was bullied and laughed at by classmates, causing him acute stress disorder.The SupremePeoplesProcuratorate (最高人民检察院) received about 1,900 cases related to school bullying in 2016. Meanwhile, there was a notable increase in bullying reports involving middle school students from 14 to 18 years old.Zhou came upwithsome ways to solve the problem, including boosting munication between teachers, parents and students and trying to establish more harmonious relationships among children. She said it was strongly suggested that parents try to be involved in their childrens educational experience, as their presence and panionship have proved effective in reducing bullying and its negative effects.28Who is the most likely to bee the target of bullying?A A 10-year-old boy from a poor familyB A 17-year-old boy from a rich familyC A 17-year-old girl from an ordinary schoolD A 10-year-old girl from a key school29Being bullied will cause students to go through the following EXCEPT _.A a lack of trust in other peopleB a drop in the sense of depressionC a lack of ability to manage their lifeD a drop in academic performance30We can learn from the text that _.A bullying on campus has been brought into sharp focus by the mediaB students who enjoy parents panionship will be bullying-freeC the government should consider taking further action against bullying at schoolD bullying at school usually leads to acute stress disorder31What can be the best title for the text?A Negative effects on children caused by bullyingB Is anything we can do about bullying?C The reasons for bullying on campusD Bullying affects half of the studentsDA typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in peoples mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭子)and a chair. The whip get all of the attention, but its mostly for show. In reality, its the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lions face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided , the lion bees confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achiever (e,g. lose weight, start a business, travel more ) only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress ?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we cant focus or that were focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesnt have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want to acplish, someone you want to bee ?.take immediate action. If youre clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out the way .32Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A To trick the lion.B To show off his skill .C To get ready for a fight.D To entertain the audience.33In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A They feel puzzled over choices.B They hold on to the wrong things.C They find it hard to make changes.D They have to do something for show.34What is the authors attitude towards the experts mentioned in paragraph 3?A TolerantB DoubtfulC RespectfulD Supportive35When the world is 搘aving a chair in your face?, youre advised to_.A wait for a better chanceB break your old habitsC Concentrate on your goalD ask for clear guidance第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever had the following experience?
