2、er Sheet 1.For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Breakfast or InternetKarl and Dorsey Gude of East Lansing, Michigan, USA, can remember simpler mornings, not too l
3、ong ago. They sat together and chatted as they ate breakfast at home. They read the newspapers and competed only with the television for the attention of their two teenage sons.That was so last century. Today, Mr. Gude wakes at around 6 a.m. to check his work e-mail and his Facebook(脸谱网站) and Twitte
4、r(微型博客) accounts. The two boys, Cole and Erik, start each morning with text messages, video games and Facebook.The new routine in the morning quickly became a source of conflict in the family, with Ms Gude complaining that technology was eating into family time. But ultimately, even she partially yi
5、elded, cracking open her laptop after breakfast.“Things that I thought were unacceptable a few years ago are now commonplace in my house,” she said, “like all four of us starting the day on four computers in four separate rooms.”Technology has shaken up plenty of lifes modes, but for many people it
6、has completely altered the once predictable routines at the start of the day.This is morning in America in the Internet age. After six to eight hours of network deprivationalso known as sleeppeople are increasingly waking up and heading for cellphones and laptops, sometimes even before moving their
7、legs to the floor and tending to more biologically urgent activities.“It used to be you woke up, went to the bathroom, maybe brushed your teeth and picked up the newspaper,” said Naomi S. Baron, a professor of linguistics (语言学) at American University, who has written about technologys push into ever
8、yday life. “But what we do first now has changed so dramatically. Ill be the first to admit: the first thing I do now is to check my e-mail.” The Gudes sons sleep with their phones next to their beds, so they start the day with text messages in place of alarm clocks. Mr. Gude, an instructor at Michi
9、gan State University, sends texts to his two sons in order to wake up.“We use texting as an in-house phone,” he said. “I could just walk upstairs, but they always answer their texts.” The Gudes recently began shutting their devices down on weekends so as to hold back the decrease in family time.In o
10、ther households, the impulse to go online before getting out the door adds an extra layer of chaos to the existing morning disorder. Weekday mornings have long been busy and chaotic. Families that used to fight over the shower or the newspapers now fight over access to the household computeror about
11、 whether they should be using the gadgets(小器具，小玩意) at all, instead of communicating with one another.“They used to have blankets; now they have phones,” said Liz Perle, a mother in San Francisco who recently feels annoyed at the earlymorning technology immersion(沉浸,专心) of her two teenage children. “
12、If their beds were far from the power outlets, they would most probably sleep on the floor. ”The increase of early risers is reflected in online and wireless traffic patterns. Internet companies that used to watch traffic levels rise only when people started working, but now they find the up-tick mu
13、ch earlier.Arbor Networks, a Boston company that analyzes Internet use, says that Web traffic in the United States gradually declines from midnight to around 6 a.m. on the East Coast and then gets a huge morning swing. “Its a rocket ship that takes off at 7 a. m,” said Craig Labovitz, Arbors chief s
14、cientist.Akamai, which helps some web-sites like Facebook and Amazon keep up with visitor demand, says traffic takes off even earlier nowadays, at around 6 a. m. on the East Coast. Verizon Wireless Company reported the number of text messages sent between 7 and 10 a.m. jumped by 50 percent in July,
15、compared with a year earlier.Both adults and children have good reasons to wake up and go on line. Morn and Dad might need to catch up one mail from colleagues in different time zones. Children check text messages and Facebook posts from friends with different bedtimesand sometimes forget their own
16、duties in the process.In May this year, Gabrielle Glaser of Montclair, N. J., bought her 14-year-old daughter, Moriah, an Apple laptop for her birthday. In the weeks after, Moriah missed the school bus three times and went from walking the family Labradoodle dog for 20 minutes each morning to only b
17、riefly letting the dog outside.Moriah admits that she neglected the bus and dog, and blames Facebook, where the possibility that important updates from friends might be waiting draws her online as soon as she wakes. “I have some friends who are up early and chatting,” she said. “There is definitely
18、a pull to check it.”Some families have tried to set limits on Internet use in the mornings. James Steyer, founder of Common Sense Media, a nonprofit organization that deals with children and entertainment, wakes every morning at 6 and spends the next hour on his BlackBerry(商务通), managing email from
19、contacts in different parts of the world.But when he meets his wife, Liz, and their four children, ages 5 to 16, at the breakfast table, no laptops or phones are allowed.Mr. Steyer says he and his sons feel the temptation of technology early. Kirk, 14, often runs through much of his daily one-hour a
20、llotment(分配) of video-game time in the morning.Even Jesse, 5, has started asking each morning if he can play games on his fathers iPhone. And Mr. Steyer says he constantly feels the trouble of waiting messages on his BlackBerry, even during morning hours that are usually reserved for family time.“Yo
21、u have to resist the impulse. You have to switch from work mode to parenting mode,” Mr. Steyer said. “But meeting my own standard is tough.”注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。1.
