  • 2.Being "young" is associated with all the good things in life-beauty,hope,and energy.But youth also has negative associations-impulsiveness,troublemaking,and irresponsibility.This negative side seems to be what society focuses on more,which is why young people have mostly been considered as idle and difficult.
      But when it comes to Generation Z-those born between 1995 and 2010-this stereotype doesn't seem to apply anymore.
       In Japan,for example,Gen Zers are less likely to buy on impulse,but take into consideration more a product's true value."They're looking at the companies,not just the products," Masahiko Uotani,CEO of Japanese cosmetics company Shiseido,told Bloomberg."They're asking,'Are they really delivering value to the society?Are they promoting diversity and inclusiveness?'"
       Gen Zers are also more grounded than we've expected them to be.According to a recent survey by Bank of America,more than half of young adults aged between 18 and 23 said they were planning to buy a house within five years.And they're not just saying it-they are willing to make sacrifices for it,including getting a second job and saving money for a down payment instead of spending it on a vacation.
       "Despite their young age,this group is pragmatic and actively planning for their future," D.Steve Boland,head of Consumer Lending at Bank of America,told USA Today."They have a clear vision of how they are willing to help themselves in order to make it happen."
       Social issues are also at the center of concern of Gen Zers,who take themselves as a changing force of the world.In India,for example,young people who have just reached the voting age are eager to vote for a new leader who is capable of solving problems that matter the most to them,including pollution,unemployment and women's safety.
       As a Gen Zer yourself,what is your plan for the future?

    (1)What do the underlined words "this stereotype" in Paragraph 2 refer to?

    A.Being young is good.
    B.Gen Zers are born after 1995.
    C.The traditional poor impressions on the youth.
    D.The associations with young people.
    (2)We can infer from the third paragraph that
    .
    A.Gen Zers in Japan are picky
    B.Gen Zers are self-centered
    C.Gen Zers care little about products
    D.Gen Zers are wise when shopping
    (3)What's D.Steve Boland's attitude to the Gen Zers?

    A.Approving.
    B.Negative.
    C.Indifferent.
    D.Critical.
    (4)Which of the following words may best describe the Gen Zers?

    A.Confident and independent.
    B.Visionary and responsible.
    C.Persistent and down-to-earth.
    D.Active and creative.

  • 3.Cheating (作弊) can happen in a lot of different ways.When people cheat,it's not fair to other people,like the kids who studied for the test or who the true winners of a game were.
       Many people like the action of cheatjye.aig.In their opinion,it makes difficult things seem easy,like getting all the right answers on the test.But it doesn't solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won't help on the next test —— unless the person cheats again.
       Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them.The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they shouldn't get that good grade.And,if they get caught cheating,they will be in trouble at school,and maybe at home,too.
       Some kids cheat because they're busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying.Other kids might feel like they can't pass the test without cheating.Even when there seems to be a "good reason" for cheating,cheating isn't a good idea.
       If you were sick or upset about something the night before the day and couldn't study,it would be better to talk with the teacher about this.And if you don't have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice,you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions together.Talking about these problems and working them out will make them feel better than cheating.

    (1)The author thinks that when kids cheat in class,

    A.it is unfair to other people
    B.it does harm to their health
    C.teachers should punish them
