Americans view the family as a group whose primary purpose is to advance the happiness of individual members. In contrast to many other cultures, the primary responsibility of the American family member is not to advance the family as a group, either socially or economically. What would be best for the family is not usually considered to be as important as what would be best for the individual. With freedom comes the responsibility to care for oneself, for it is the freedom of choice that carries with it the responsibility: to accept the consequences of the choices. Many Americans give their children a lot of freedom because they want them to be independent and self-reliant. Along with the American emphasis on individual freedom, the belief in equality between parents and children also has had a strong effect on the family.作为美国文化价值体系的一个重要组成部分,"个人主义"受到大多数美国人的推崇。

Americans view the family as a group whose primary purpose is to advance the happiness of individual members. In contrast to many other cultures, the primary responsibility of the American family member is not to advance the family as a group, either socially or economically. What would be best for the family is not usually considered to be as important as what would be best for the individual. With freedom comes the responsibility to care for oneself, for it is the freedom of choice that carries with it the responsibility: to accept the consequences of the choices. Many Americans give their children a lot of freedom because they want them to be independent and self-reliant. Along with the American emphasis on individual freedom, the belief in equality between parents and children also has had a strong effect on the family.作为美国文化价值体系的一个重要组成部分,"个人主义"受到大多数美国人的推崇。
人教版(2019)高中英语必修第二册:Unit 3 The internet 单元测试(含答案和解析

Unit 3 单元测试一、阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10小题,每小题2.5分,满分25分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
AMySpace, the social networking website, is different from other websites which only provide stories about other people. MySpace is a place that allows you to broadcast your own stories and personal information to as many people as you like. Started years ago, it is a big source of information for and about American kids.Teenagers and their parents feel very different about it. Teens are rushing to join the site, not sharing their parents’ worries. It signals yet another generation gap in the digital era.For teenagers, it is reliable network to keep in touch with their friends. They will often list their surnames, birthdays, after-school jobs, school clubs, hobbies and other personal information.“MySpace is an easy way to reach just about everyone. I don’t have all the phone numbers of my acquaintances. But if I want to get in touch with one of them, I could just leave them a message on MySpace,” said Abby Van Wassen. She is a 16-year-old student at Woodland Hills High of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.Parents on the other hand are seriously concerned about the security problems of MySpace. “Every time we hold a parents’ meeting, the first question is always about MySpace,” said Kent Gates, who travels the country doing Internet safety seminars(研讨会).The National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children has received at least 288 MySpace related complaints, according to Mary Beth Buchanan, a lawyer in Pittsburgh.“Your profile on MySpace shows all your personal information to anyone on the Web. And MySpace even lists this information by birthplace and age. It’s like a free checklist for troublemakers and it endangers children,” Buchanan said.1. From the passage, we can learn that MySpace ________.A. brings about the generation gapB. is very careful about people’s privacyC. encourages you to list your personal informationD. lists the telephone numbers of your friends2. Why are some parents against MySpace?A. Because they think MySpace has a bad influence on their children.B. Because they don’t want to pay so much money for MySpace.C. Because it takes up too much of their children’s spare time.D. Because troublemakers can easily reach their children through the site.3. What can we infer from “Every time we hold a parents’ meeting, the first question is always about MySpace”?A. MySpace has become a top problem troubling parents.B. MySpace often holds parents meetings.C. MySpace is quite popular with parents.D. Parents have lots of questions about the website.BNetgear Wi-Fi Range ExtenderEst. Price: $30 | Buy it on AmazonWhy We Love It: This is a great device to increase your wi-fi signal and get the fastest streaming power. It’s also useful to set up separate wi-fi networks for guests.External Phone ChargerEst. Price: $30 | Buy it on B&H PhotoWhy We Love It: Charge your phone anywhere while also extending is battery life. This particular model can also be used with the iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, and iPad. It has a standard USB drive so users can charge e-readers as well.Pop Sockets Smartphone StandEst. Price: $10 | Buy it on AmazonWhy We Love It: It may look silly, but this gripper is actually really useful for taking pictures or watching videos. It also folds down flat when not in use for a more separate look.FitbitEst. Price: $40 | Buy it on Bed Bath & BeyondWhy We Love It: Track steps and monitor sleep cycles to improve your health. It also records workouts, and receives call, text, or calendar notifications.4. Which one can be used to connect your smartphone with the network?A. Pop Sockets Smartphone Stand.B. External Phone Charger.C. Netgear Wi-Fi Range Extender.D. Fitbit.5. According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?A. Netgear Wi-Fi Range Extender can build different wi-fi networks for each person.B. External Phone Charger can be used anywhere in iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, iPad.C. Pop Sockets Smartphone Stand is beautiful and useful for photography.D. Fitbit can keep company with us when doing exercise.6. What do they have in common with each other?A. Their prices are all under $40.B. They all can be bought online.C. They all help to make smartphones more available.D. They are not loved by people because of their usage.CSuppose you’re in a rush, felling tired, not paying attention to your screen, and you send an email that could get you in trouble.Realisation will probably set in seconds after you’ve clicked “send”. You freeze in horror and bum with shame.What to do? Here are four common email accidents, and how to recover.Clicking “send” too soonDon’t waste your time trying to find out if the receiver has read it yet. Write another email as swiftly as you can and send it with a brief title explaining that this is the correct version and the previous version should be ignored.Writing the wrong nameThe sooner you notice, the better. Respond quickly and briefly, apologising for your mistake. Keep the tone measured: don’t handle it too lightly, as people can be offended, especially if your error suggests a misunderstanding of their culture (i. e. incorrect ordering of Chinese names).Clicking “reply all” unintentionallyYou accidentally reveal(透露)to the entire company what menu choices you would prefer at the staff Christmas dinner, or what holiday you’d like to take. In this instance, the best solution is to send a quick, light-hearted apology to explain your awkwardness. But it can quickly rise to something worse, when everyone starts hitting “reply all” to join in a long and unpleasant conversation. In this instance, step away from your keyboard to allow everyone to calm down.Sending an offensive message to its subjectThe most awkward email mistake is usually committed in anger. You write an unkind message about someone, intending to send it to a friend, but accidentally send it to the person you’re discussing. In that case, ask to speak in person as soon as possible and say sorry. Explain your frustrations calmly and sensibly —see it as an opportunity to clear up any difficulties you may have with this person.7. After realizing an email accident, you are likely to feel ________.A. curiousB. tiredC. awfulD. funny8. If you have written the wrong name in an email, it is best to ________.A. apologise in a serious mannerB. tell the receiver to ignore the errorC. learn to write the name correctlyD. send a short notice to everyone9. What should you do when an unpleasant conversation is started by your “reply all” email?A. Try offering other choices.B. Avoid further involvement.C. Meet other staff members.D. Make a light hearted apology.10. What is the passage mainly about?A. Defining email errors.B. Reducing email mistakes.C. Handling email accidents.D. Improving email writing.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
