Teenagers who spend hours in front of the television may have a poorer diet as young adults.

A study，which included nearly 1，400 high school students，found those who watched TV for five hours or more per day had less healthy diets than peers(同齡人）five years later. Why does this happen? Should the parents take any measures?

On the one hand，people who spend a lot of time in front of the TV, especially teenagers，may snack more，and that may affect their long-term diet quality.

On the other hand，TV ads for fast food，sweets and snacks tempt teenagers to eat more of those foods. And TV time might also replace exercise time for some kids.

Lead researcher Dr. Daheia J. Barr-Anderson，of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis，told Reuters Health a clear correlation between TV time during high school and diet quality in young adulthood. While the heaviest TV viewers were eating the most junk food , those who'd watched less than two hours per day had the highest intake(吸收)of fruits，vegetables, whole grains and high-calcium food. In her opinion，parents should limit and monitor TV viewing.

As far as I am concerned，children should watch no more than two hours of television per day. And parents should set a good example by eating right，being physically active and curbing their own TV time.

1. What's the best title for this passage?

A. People should keep away from TV to keep healthy.

B. Teenagers' TV time may affect their diets later.

C. Why do teenagers like TV"

D. Parents' own habits may affect children later.

Getting into university is hard enough at the best of times—but when your chosen institution is a work of fiction you’re really up against. And that’s why this young joker’s Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) application to Hogwarts University was unsuccessful.

But the admissions services’ response to the young man is still funny.

The unnamed A-Level student wrote a handwritten note to UCAS asking for a place studying ‘Wandology’ at the Harry Potter school.

In the application, he was proud of his skills in “wearing a pointy hat” and “Watching Paul Daniels TV Specials”.

UCAS replied, “We regret to inform you that your application to the stated university cannot be processed at this time for the fact that it does not exist.

“After consultation with our mystic (神秘學的) advisors we have also determined that even if it did exist, the course ‘Wandology’ would be highly in demand and thus require at least two As and a B in any of the following subjects:

Advanced Spellcrafting

Mystimatics

Defence Against the Dark Arts

History of the Mysticism

Shaft Design

“Your handwritten grade sheet claiming top marks in ‘Waving a stick about’, ‘Wearing a pointy hat’ and ‘Watching Paul Daniels TV Specials’ sadly is not suitable for admission, however, by applying through clearing you may be suitable for a selection of Liberal Arts courses.”

“Or, you may wish to resubmit next year by tying your letter to an owl (貓頭鷹) and hoping for the best.

“On behalf of UCAS I wish you every success.”

1.What do we know about the underlined word “Wandology” according to the passage?

A. It is a course that is highly in demand in universities.

B. It is a course that does not exist now in real life.

B. The young student will probably start to raise an owl for the next year.

C. UCAS may approve the young student’s application for Liberal Arts courses.

D. In the end the young student succeeded in applying for Hogwarts University.

3.Where may this passage be found?

People are being tricked into Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service without realizing they’re paying for it by giving up loads of personal information.

Most Facebook users don’t realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what they’re paying for Facebook because people don’t really know what their personal data is worth.

The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules early on you keep everything private. That was the great thing about Facebook.

According to Facebook’s vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people don’t share information. They have a “l(fā)ess satisfying experience.

Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. In original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them. At the side of the pages totally, who wants to took at ads when they’re online connecting with their friends?

The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April. Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social networking sites. “I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,” Schrage admits.

I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, it’s only the beginning，which is why I’m considering cancelling my account. Facebook is a handy site, but I’m upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don’t know. That’s too high a price to pay.

A. It is a website that sends messages to users who want to get married.

B. It earns money by putting on advertisements.

C. It makes money by selling its users’ personal data.

D. It provides loads of information to its users.

A. They are unwilling to give up their personal information.

C. They don’t know their personal data enriches Facebook.

D. They care very little about their personal information.

3.Why does Facebook make changes to its rules according to Elliot Schrage?

A. To obey the Federal guidelines.

B. To provide better service to its users.

C. To improve its users’ connection
