1、 More students than ever before are taking a gap year(间隔年) before going to university. It

used to be the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated(起源) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in November and

the start of the next academic year.

This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put

off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by the

University and College Admissions Service (UCAS).

That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony Higgins

from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students who

take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and complete, their chosen course.

Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said.

But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students

(NUS), argued that the increase is evidence of student hardship—young people are being forced

into earning money before finishing their education. “New students are now aware that they are

likely to leave university up to £15,000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are

taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree. NUS statistics show that

over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during

vacating periods,” he said.

1.What do we learn about the gap year from the text?

A.It is flexible in length.

B.It is a time for relaxation.

C.It is increasingly popular.

D.It is required by universities.

2.According to Tony Higgins. students taking a gap year ____.

A.are better prepared for college studies

B.know a lot more about their future job

C.are more likely to leave university in debt

D.have a better chance to enter top universities

3.How does Owain James feel about the gap-year phenomenon? A.He's puzzled.

B.He's worried.

C.He's surprised.

D.He's annoyed.

4.What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics?

A.Attend additional courses.

B.Make plans for the new term.

C.Earn money for their education.

D.Prepare for their graduate studies.

2、 You get anxious if there’s no wi-fi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain. You

feel upset if your phone is getting low on power and you secretly worry things will go wrong at

work if you’re not there. All these can be called “always on” stress caused by smart phone

addiction.

For some people, smart phones have liberated them from the nine-to-five work. Flexible

working has given them more autonomy in their working lives and enabled them to spend more

time with their friends and families. For many others though, smart phones have become cruel

masters in their pockets, never allowing them to turn them off and relax.

Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh was worried about how much he was ignoring his

family and friends in favor of his iPhone. So he developed an app — Moment — to monitor his

usage. The app enables users to see how much time they’re spending on the device and set up

warnings if the usage limits are broken. “Moment’s goal is to promote balance in your life,” his

website explains. “Some time on your phone, some time off it enjoying your loving family and

friends around you.”

Dr. Christine Grant, an occupational psychologist at Coventry University, said, “The effects of

this ‘always on’ culture are that your mind is never resting, and you’re not giving your body time

to recover, so you’re always stressed. And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes

we make. Physical and mental health can suffer.”

And as the number of connected smart phones is increasing, so is the amount of data. This is

leading to a sort of decision paralysis (瘫痪) and is creating more stress in the workplace because people have to receive a broader range of data and communications which are often difficult to

manage. “It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many do less because they’re

controlled by it all and feel they can never escape the office,” said Dr. Christine Grant.

1.What’s the first paragraph mainly about?

A.The popularity of smart phones.

B.The progress of modern technology.

C.The signs of “always on” stress.

D.The cause of smart phone addiction.

2.Kevin Holesh developed Moment to __________.

A.research how people use their mobile phones

B.help people control their use of mobile phones

C.make people better use mobile phones
