Shed wake up early, turn on her laptop and chat on Internet dating sites and instant-messaging programs leaving her bed for only brief intervals. Her household bills piled up, along with the dishes and dirty laundry, but it took near-constant plaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem. I was starting to feel like my whole world was falling apart kind of slipping into a depression, said Carla. I knew that if I didnt get off the dating sites, Id just keep going, detaching (使脱离) herself further from the outside world. Toebes conclusion: She felt like she was addicted to the Internet. Shes not alone. Concern about excessive Internet use isnt new. As far back as 1995, articles in medical journals and the establishment of a Pennsylvania treatment center for overusers generated interest in the subject. Theres still no consensus on how much time online constitutes too much or whether addiction is possible. But as reliance on the Web grows, there are signs that the question is getting more serious attention: Last month, a study published in CNS Spectrums claimed to be the first large-scale look at excessive Internet use. The American Psychiatric Association may consider listing Internet addiction in the next edition of its diagnostic manual. And scores of online discussion boards have popped up on which people discuss negative experiences tied to too much time on the Web. Theres no question that therere people whore seriously in trouble because theyre overdoing their Internet involvement, said psychiatrist (精神科医生) Ivan Goldberg. Goldberg calls the problem a disorder rather than a true addiction. Jonathan Bishop, a researcher in Wales specializing in online munities, is more skeptical. The Internet is an environment, he said. You cant be addicted to theenvironment. Bishop describes the problem as simply a matter of priorities, which can be solved by encouraging people to prioritize other life goals and plans in place of time spent online. The new CNS Spectrums study was based on results of a nationwide telephone survey of more than 2,500 adults. Like the xx survey, this one was conducted by StanfordUniversity researchers.About 6% of respondents reported that their relationships suffered because of excessive Internet use. About 9% attempted to conceal nonessential Internet use, and nearly 4% reported feeling preoccupied by the Internet when offline. About 8% said they used the Internet as a way to escape problems, and almost 14% reported they found it hard to stay away from the Internet for several days at a time. The Internet problem is still in its infancy, said Elias Aboujaoude, a Stanford professor. No single online activity is to blame for excessive use, he said. Theyre online in chat rooms, checking e-mail, or writing blogs. not limited to porn (色情) or gambling websites. Excessive Internet use should be defined not by the number of hours spent online but in terms of losses, said Maressa Orzack, a Harvard University professor. If its a loss youre not getting to work, and family relationships are breaking down as a result, then its too much.Since the early 1990s, several clinics have been established in the U. S. to treat heavy Internet users. They include the Center for Internet Addiction Recovery and the Center for Internet Behavior. The website for Orzacks center lists the following among the psychological symptoms of puter addiction: Having a sense of well-being (幸福) or excitement while at the puter. Longing for more and more time at the puter. Neglect of family and friends. Feeling empty, depressed or irritable when not at the puter. Lying to employers and family about activities. Inability to stop the activity. Problems with school or job. Physical symptoms listed include dry eyes, backaches, skipping meals, poor personal hygiene (卫生) and sleep disturbances. People who struggle with excessive Internet use maybe depressed or have other mood disorders, Orzack said. When she discusses Internet habits with her patients, they often report that being online offers a sense of belonging, and escape, excitement fun, she said. Some people say reliefbecause they find themselves so relaxed. Some parts of the Internet seem to draw people in more than others. Internet gamers spend countless hours peting in games against people from all over the world. One such game, called World of Warcraft, is cited on many sites by posters plaining of a gaming addiction. Andrew Heidrich, an education network administrator from Sacramento, plays World of Warcraft for about two to four hours every other night, but thats nothing pared with the 40 to 60 hours a week he spent playing online games when he was in college. He cut back only after a full-scale family intervention (干预), in which s told him hed gained weight. Theres this whole culture of petition that sucks people in with online gaming, said Heidrich, now a father of two. People do it at the expense of everything that was a constant in their lives. Heidrich now visits websites that discuss gaming addiction regularly to remind myself to keep my love for online games in check. Toebe also regularly visits a site where posters discuss Internet overuse. In August, when she first realized she had a problem, she posted a message on a Yahoo Internet addiction group with the subject line: I have an Internet Addiction. Im self-employed and need the Internet for my work, but Im failing to acplish my work,to take care of my home, to give attention to my children, she wrote in a message sent to the group.I have no money or insurance to get professional help; I cant even pay my mortgage (抵押贷款) and face losing everything. Since then, Toebe said, she has kept her promise to herself to cut back on her Internet use. I have a boyfriend now, and Im not interested in online dating, she said by phone last week. Its a lot better now.21. What eventually made Carla Toebe realize she was spending too much time on the Internet?A. Her daughters repeated plaints.B. Fatigue resulting from lack of sleep.C. The poorly managed state of her house.D. The high financial costs adding up.22. What does the author say about excessive Internet use?A. People should be warned of its harmful consequences.B. It has bee virtually inevitable.C. It has been somewhat exaggerated.D. People havent yet reached agreement on its definition.23. Jonathan Bishop believes that the Internet overuse problem can be solved if people _.A. try to improve the Internet environmentB. bee aware of its serious consequencesC. can realize what is important in lifeD. can reach a consensus on its definitionB Last year, Jin YuchengsFanHuawas taken to Salon du livre, Frances largest book fair, along with other contemporary Chinese literary works such as Bi FeiyusSubeiYouthDonQuixote. The two books attracted the attention of Editions Philippe Picquier, a French publisher that specializes in translating books from China, Japan, South Korea, India, Vietnam and other countries in Asia. This publisher reportedly purchased the copyright ofSubeiYouthDonQuixote, a non-fiction work about the writers childhood in East Chinas Jiangsu province, for 130,000 euros ($143,000). Editions Philippe Picquier was also interested inFanHua, but didnt follow up owing to translation issues. The book is Jins debut novel, which is set in Shanghai and tells stories of two decades: the 1960s and the 1990s. There are no major plots, but excerpts from the lives of its different characters, threaded by dialogues. There are detailed depictions of streets, entertainment activities and relationships in the representative times in Shanghai, covering theCultural Revolution(1966-1976) and theReform&Opening Upphases. As Hong Kong-based film director Karwai Wong put it, the novel is full of arich and strongflavor of local peoples lives. In May 2011, when Jin, then an editor at a literary magazine in Shanghai, started to post interesting stories he heard about Shanghai on the local website longdang.org, little did he realize that it would bee more than just fun. His stories soon attracted more readers whose ments urged him to post more. In five months, Jin, then 59, wrote more than 330,000 characters online. The novel was first titledShanghaiAbaoafter its major character Abao. The following year, Jin started serializing his novel inHarvest, one of Chinas leading literary magazines. Finally, Jins efforts resulted in a book in xx, and with it came lots of awards, including the 9th prestigious Mao Dun Literature Prize.Some critics pare it with fellow Shanghai-based author Eileen Changs novels andDreamoftheRedChamber, calling Jins book one of the best novels based on Shanghai. Wong also announced that he would adapt Jins book for cinema by 2020. By August, before the Mao Dun Literature Prize winners were announced,FanHuahad sold nearly 300,000 copies. Key features of the novel include the use of the local Shanghai dialect for the narrative and focus on the characters external responses to events rather than their psychological profiles. The copyright manager forFanHuaat Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House says,According to my knowledge, Editions Philippe Picquier gave up because the translation work is expensive and they worry that the sales in the French market may not be able to cover the cost.For instance,ChanghenGe(TheSongofEverlastingRegret) by Wang Anyi was also introduced by Editions Philippe Picquier to French readers. The translation work took one and a half years, and the publisher spent three years pleting the French edition ofit.But we have soldFanHuascopyright of the traditional Chinese edition to Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau. Also Humanist Publishing House from South Korea has purchased the copyright for the Korean edition. Cultural difference is another barrier apart from language. In Asia, we have more in mon when it es to culture.24What can we learn aboutFanHuaandSubeiYouthDonQuixote?A.They were both translated into French.B.They became famous on a French book fair.C.They were both well-known to film directors.D.They were both noticed by Editions Philippe Picquier.25How did Jin feel about his success in the local website longdang.org?A.Surprised.

According to Bracken Hendricks, a senior fellow at the Center for Global Progress, careers that promote environmental responsibility will bee main stream within a decade. “The growth in green careers will be like the Internet boom, which not only created new jobs, but also had an influence on the overall economy,” he says. The increasing environmental problems and need for eco-friendly products and services are creating a new job section of green-collar jobs. Many countries of the world have realized the importance and need for energy-saving products and services. It is expected that by 2025 about 25% of the jobs in developed countries will be of green-collar jobs. Doesnt the data look promising for the future? Green-collar jobs have bee a bright career chances for all. And jobs will pop up at every ine level, from environmental manager to gardener. For example, many countries including the United States have understood that fossil fuels have negative effect on the environment which can later bee a serious danger to mankind. As a result, possibilities are being explored to find alternatives to satisfy demands in a better way. The increasing demand of newer resources has creating the need for experts and researchers who can find better ways to deal with the ongoing needs. In addition, in order to meet the increasing demands of environment-friendly equipment, both green product designer and educated and trained workers are needed. Management of environmental organizations also demands a large number of environmental managers. Where can you find green-collar jobs? Internet is undoubtedly the best way to find information on almost any matter. Nowadays, different kinds of jobs are being posted online. Search through a couple of job websites to look for a bright future in energy conversion and recycling of waste management. Check regularly and find the right work for yourself. People who read newspapers can also find different kinds of green-collar jobs.28. Why does Bracken Hendricks mention the Internet Boom in Paragraph One?A. To explain the importance of technology.B.

The NASA-funded project involves three men and three women who have no access to fresh food and limited access to Internet that requires 20-minute intervals between click and response, as it might be in deep space. They are allowed to step outside their igloo-like enclosure which measures 11 meters in diameter and six meters tall only if wearing a space suit. “We are surrounded by basaltic lava(玄武岩火山石) and living on the slopes of Mauna Loa where there is little evidence of plant or animal life,” wrote crew member Jocelyn Dunn, a doctor at Purdue Universitys School of Industrial Engineering, after her first day in the dome on October 17. “The training wheels are ing off as our new reality is setting in,” Dunn wrote on her blog, fivestarview.blogspot, which she plans to update throughout the mission. NASA is spending $1.2 million on a series of three such projects known as Hawaii Space Exploration Analog and Simulation (HI-SEAS) to determine the potential risks of sending people together to spend long periods on a distant planet. NASA is aiming for a human mission to Mars by the 2030s, but experts are still not sure if humans can with-stand the radiation that the journey would involve. It could take eight months to reach the Red Planet, not to mention time spent on it with a thin atmosphere and no known food source, followed by an attempt at returning to Earth. One recent study found that with the current limits of technology, adventurers to Mars would start dying in 68 days. Another study this week said the risk of radiation-induced cancer would limit any trip to one year. NASA considers it just as important to study whether peoples mental states could hold up under the pressure of a Mars journey, said principal investigator Kim Binsted. Both crew psychology and radiation are considered “red risks” for Mars, “which means essentially, until we solve these problems, we are not going,” Binsted told AFP. Binsted is coordinating the experiment from the outside the dome. Those inside are healthy, educated people in their 20s and 30s, each with a keen interest in science and space. “It is kind of the opposite of a reality show. We select against drama.” explained Binsted. “We try to pick a crew that w
