26、e walking quietly and hurriedly when suddenly an old man fell down in the rush. His head hit the floor and he appeared to be painful. Everyone rushed past him, except Dana. She called for help. A minute later, a young airline worker showed up. Hardly looking at the old man, she told Dana to get aboa
27、rd（登机）her plane. She said the old man would be okay, and walked away. Dana shouted for help. An airport leader appeared and called 911. He told Dana to get on the plane. Dana said that she was not moving until an ambulance（救护车）arrived. The leader said her plane would leave without her. Dana said tha
28、t she didnt care. At last, an ambulance and two doctors finally arrived. The doctors gave the old man a checkup and said that there seemed to be nothing very serious with him and he would be fine.

32、e digital（数字）age has had a good influence and a not-so-good influence on American teenagers. More than 2,000 middle and high school teachers took an online survey. Researchers also spoke with teachers in some groups. Most teachers think the Internet and digital search tools have had a mostly positiv
33、e influence on their students research habits and skills. But at the same time, some teachers also point out some problems in teenagers using digital search tools. The Pew Internet Project did the survey with the College Board and the National Writing Project. Judy Buchanan is the director of the Na
34、tional Writing Project and a co-writer of the report. She says digital research tools are helping students learn more, and learn faster. “Both teachers and students really welcome these tools because they make learning exciting. And the goal is to really help students become creators of something me
35、aningful, and not just users of the online information.” But one problem the survey found is that these technologies make teenagers have short attention spans（持续时间）. As there is huge amount of information about different subjects on the Internet, teenagers attention is easily drawn away from their r
36、esearch. Another problem the survey found is that many students trust the information they find on the Internet too much. Judy Buchanan says these students have not developed the skills to judge the online information. They need to learn a lot to tell if the information is believable. Its something
37、that really has to be paid attention to.One more problem the survey found is something that might not seem like a problem at all: being able to quickly find information online. Many students think “doing research” now means just doing a quick search on Google. Teachers say the result is a drop in th
38、e wish and ability of their students to work hard to find answers. That is, they are overly dependent on search engines and do not make enough use of printed books or research librarians. Many teachers also say that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others instead of using
39、 their own abilities. 53. The result of the survey shows _. 8A. digital search tools need to be greatly improved B. digital search tools are generally good for teenagers C. teenagers have difficulty in using digital search tools D. American teachers enjoy using digital search tools 54. Using digital
40、 search tools makes teenagers _. A. less trusting of online informationB. more independent in doing research C. more willing to work hard to find answersD. less able to pay full attention while searching 55. To do better in research, teenagers should _.A. spend more time searching online B. ask thei
41、r teachers for more advice C. make better use of printed materials D. learn more knowledge of search tools D Are you a good receiver? It might sound like a funny question but it is an important one that each of us should ask ourselves. Strangely, most of us are better givers than receivers. We give
42、to our family, our friends and even charities, and opposite to what we might think, most of us are actually very good at giving. But receiving is another matter. We often feel a little uneasy when receiving, although it is not very noticeable. Even praise gets deflected（转向）when it comes our way. Whe
43、n someone praises us for helping him move or clean up the house, we will possibly say, “Ah, it was nothing.” When someone praises the coat we are wearing, we may mention how we bought it at a discount instead of simply enjoying the praise. Actually, the praise is a gift to us, and when we dont recei
44、ve it properly, we are dishonoring the giver. Giving is easy, as there is much pleasure in giving, but receiving is an art that takes practice. To be a good receiver requires a sense of close relationship with the giver. It is always a pleasure for a giver to see the gift received in a pleasant way.
45、 And this is also the best way for a receiver to honor the giver and give him something back.Many relationships are not so good not because people are not giving to each other, but because they are not receiving from each other well. We should receive the love, respect the praise, and give thanks ev
46、ery time giving happens. We should practice receiving all the pleasures that happen to us every day, instead of taking them for granted. Think of how many simple everyday gifts we are being given all the time: the beauty of nature, art and inspiring（激励人的）conversations. But are we truly receiving the
47、m when they happen to us, or are we busy with other matters, not noticing? We should master the art of receiving: accept the gifts life offers us and show our appreciation for them. We are taught that it is better to give than to receive. But this suggests that there is something wrong with receiving. There is nothing wrong with receiving. It is better to give and receive. Let 9life shower us with gifts, pleasures, joys, surprises, both large and small, and let us take notice of all these things and accept them happily and thankfully. The more we can receive, the more we can give back, but g
