Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible

words.

“There is a senseless concept that children grow up and leave home when they are 18, and the truth is far from

that,” says sociologist Larry Bumpass of the University of Wisconsin. Today, unexpected numbers of young adults are

living with their parents.

Analysts raised a variety of reasons for this return to the nest. One important reason is that the marriage age is

rising, a condition that makes home and its pleasantness particularly attractive to young people, which is second to

skyrocketing housing costs to which young people find their wings attached. Besides, a high divorce rate and a

declining remarriage rate are sending economically pressed and emotionally hurt survivors back to parental shelters.

For some, the expense of an away-from-home college education has become so great that many students now attend

local schools.

Living at home, says Knighton, a school teacher, continues to give her security and moral support. Her mother

agreed, “It is ridiculous for the kids to pay all that money for rent. It makes sense for kids to stay at home.” But

sharing the family home requires adjustments for all. There are the quarrels over bathrooms, telephones and privacy.

Some families, however, manage the delicate balancing act. But for others, it proves too difficult. Michelle Del Turco,

24, has been home three times — and left three times. “What I considered a social drink, my dad considered an

alcohol problem,” she explains. “He never liked anyone I dated, so I either had to hide away to meet them at friends’

houses.”

It is really hard to say how long adult children should live with their parents before moving on. Nevertheless, it is

commonly recognized that lengthy homecomings are a mistake and they accidentally destroy the advantage of brief

visits that will strengthen the relationship between parents and children. Children, struggling to establish separate

identities, can end up with “a sense of inadequacy, defeat and failure.” And aging parents, who should be enjoying

some financial and personal freedom, find themselves stuck with responsibilities, which is definitely a stress for

them.

(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)

A study published Monday found that people who sleep less tend to be fat，and experts said it’s time to find out if

more sleep will fight fatness.

“We’ve put so much emphasis on diet and exercise that we’ve failed to recognize the value of good sleep，”said

Fred Turek，a physician at Northwestern University.

Monday’s study from Eastern Virgnia Medical School in Norfolk covered 1,000 people and found that total sleep

time decreased as body mass index－a measure of weight based on height increased.

“Men slept an average of 27 minutes less than women and overweight and fat patients slept less than patients

with normal weights，”it general the fatter subjects slept about 1.8 hours a week less than those with normal

weights.

“Americans experience insufficient sleep and fat ians are aware of the burden of fatness on

patients，”the study said.

“Our findings suggest that major extensions of sleep time may not be necessary，as an extra 20 minutes of sleep

per night seems to be associated with a lower body mass index，”it added.

“We caution that this study does not set up a cause­and­effect relationship between restricted sleep and fatness，but investigations indicating success in weight loss via extensions of sleep would help greatly to set up such a

relationship.”

The study was published in the Archives of Internal Medicine along with an editorial by Turek and

Northwestern colleague Joseph Bass commenting on it and related research.

Inan interview，Turek said some studies have shown the lack of sleep causes declines in an appetiteholding back

protein hormone，and increases in another hormone that cause a longing for food.“In addition neuropathies(神经疗法)in the brain governing sleep and fatness appear to overlap(部分重叠)，”he said.

“Fatness has been rising dramatically in developed countries and reached epidemic(流行病)levels in the United

States，”it added，“leading to a variety of health problems.”

When US’ Duke University second-year student Christian Drappi sees someone using a Square (an electronic

payment service) credit card reader, he pulls out his phone, takes a picture and uploads it to Twitter. “It kind of

spreads like __41__ through Twitter,” said Drappi, who is a campus brand representative for Square.

Companies are __42__ using college campus brand representatives to spread the word about their products.

These representatives often rely on word-of-mouth tools like social media to __43__ the company and any

promotional events they host.

Though the brand representative is no stranger to the college marketing scene, social media are changing how

these representatives __44__ with students of their same age and how effectively their message is communicated.

Companies like Red Bull, Microsoft and Twitter all have campus representatives __45__ to spreading good news

about the brand.

“Campus representatives approach students groups, local merchants and other prospective users to

demonstrate how the card reader works and its advantages over __46__ machines.” Adam Bassett, who runs the

Square U program said.

Cord Silverstein, executive vice president of interactive communications at the Raleigh advertising agency

Capstrat, said, “Social media have made it easier than ever for college students to share opinions on a product with

their friends. Someone’s friend, someone they __47__, like a student or a professor, these people are having much

greater influence on what college students think, like and don’t like, because they trust their opinions.”

When looking at representative __48__, McCarthy, who heads the campus representative program for Square,

said the company looks for __49__ students who are social-media understanding. “Three or four years ago, brand

Officials at Boston College have made what may be a critical decision: they’ve stopped giving out new email

accounts to incoming students. The officials realized that the students had already established digital 41 by the

time they entered college, so the new email addresses were just not being used, but, 42 , the college will offer

forwarding (转发) services.

Starting next year, freshman 43 at Boston College won’t be given an actual email account complete with

login and inbox, just an email address. This address, in the format of johnsmith@bc. edu will simply forward mail to

the student’s already 44 inbox, be it Gmail, Windows Live Mail, Yahoo Mail, AOL, or whatever else they may be

using.

The college reached a smart decision after first looking into outsourcing （外包） their email to the cloud. While

the Boston College decision may have been made for 45 reasons more than anything, we can easily imagine

this as being the start of a new trend.

Can you even imagine a U.S. college student who didn’t have an email address of their own by the time they

were a freshman? It’s 46 unheard of. Today’s students are digital

47 immersed (浸润) in technology from the day they were born. It simply doesn’t make sense to give them yet

another account to manage when they enter college.

By going this 48 , there are still some challenges to overcome, though. For example, a student who changes

their email carrier will probably forget to 49 the institution to the change and could then miss out on 50

messages from the university with regard to their courses, scholarship, safety information, etc.

46 – 50 JIACG

In the end, we think the decision Boston College made could easily be the start of a new trend. We’re sure the

students like it, too.
