But one year ago, the 14-year-old girl from Heilongjiang began to keep her diary in English, because Jia found her mother was reading her diary secretly. She changed the language because her mother cant read English. “Its like killing two birds with one stone.” said Jia. “My privacy (隐私)becomes safe and my English improves a lot.Jias mother is not the only mom who reads her childs diary. Recently, Renmin University of China had a national survey among over 23,000 parents. The results show that 40% of the parents read their childrens secrets. Thats why , like Jia, many teenagers try to find ways to protect their privacy.Wu Lei, 15, of Shanxi, keeps a diary , too. But he doesnt write it on paper. He writes online, which he thinks is perfectly safe because his parents know nothing about the Internet.Lu Huan, 13, of Guangdong, said her parents always secretly listened to the talk between her friends and her on the telephone in their room. To solve this problem, Liu asked her parents to buy her a mobile phone.“Parents want to know what is going on in their childrens lives,” said Shao Xiazhen, a teenage expert in Beijing, “But sometimes they go about it the wrong way.” Shao suggested to teenagers that instead of hiding their secrets, talking to parents is a better solution. If your parents know that you are safe, theyll let you keep your secrets.阅读短文，判断正误（1）Jia Meng keeps her diary in English in order to improve her English. （2）Recently , Renmin University of China had a national survey, and the results show that 40% of the parents read their childrens secrets. （3）Keeping a diary online is the best way to protect the privacy according to the article. （4）Lu Huan asked her parents to buy her a mobile phone in order to protect her privacy. （5）Shao Xiazhen thinks parents will let children keep their secrets if children talk to parents and parents know they are safe. 18. （6分） Although I didnt have any interest in being a school bus driver, I became one. Many years later, I was still working on the school bus. There are so many good reasons. Firstly, the talk brought me different kinds of information. I also got to hear all the family secrets of the newcomers. I have a toy bear who was a great comforter(安慰者) for the little ones. The kids got to look after him on the trip to school and he waited patiently for them to get on for the trip home.Our bus would often pass a place where we could see some alpacas (羊驼) in front of a farm house. Little Michael would cry excitedly from the seat, “Look, Miss! Look at the camels!” He used to put his head out of the bus window. When I warned him that a little insect would come into his nose if he wasnt careful, he smartly gave up the habit.I remember a little girl got on the bus one morning 5 years ago and sobbed(抽泣) all the way to school. We arrived at the school gate. As she waited to get down the bus, she threw her arms around my neck and cried that her grandfather had died the night before.A school bus driver needs to keep one eye on the road and the other on the mirror to watch what the little ones are doing down the back.Now, its important to think how many lives Ive been responsible(负责的) for, and how many kilometers Ive driven in order to get my passengers home safely during the 20 years. Ive enjoyed it, but its time to rest and park my school bus.（1）What does the underlined word “them” in the first paragraph refer to (所指)?A . toy bearsB . kidsC . school busesD . secrets（2）Which of the following is TRUE?A .
