We cautiously began a conversion and spoke about a wide rang of things．We never introduced ourselves．I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat．So as I rose to go back to

Your friends might be in Australia or may be just down the road, but they are all just a few clicks away．Life has changed for millions of young people across the world who now make friends online．Whether you use chat-rooms, QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are a member of this group．

“I don’t often talk with my parents or grand-parents, but I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ,” said Fox’s Shadow, the online name used by a girl student in China．“Most of my classmates use QQ after school．”

QQ is the biggest messaging service in China．A record from Tencent, the company which developed QQ, shows that 4 million people used it one Saturday night in October．

And probably Fox’s Shadow was one of them．“I log in （登陆）on Friday nights, and Saturdays or Sundays when I feel everything around me boring．I usually spend about ten hours chatting online every week,” she said．“But I never talk with strangers, especi ally boys or men．” Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online．“You don’t know who you’re talking to．You should always be careful about whom you believe in online．”

Many people would like to meet offline when they feel they have got to know someone very well．Fox’s Shadow once met one of her online friends face to face．It was a girl who was a football fan like herself and they went to a football match together．

A 16-year- old Beijing boy, named Bart Simon online, dislikes QQ users．“I used to chat on QQ, but I found that most people were talking about foolish things,” he said．Now he chats online in English, using MSN．“I only chat online because I’ve got friends in Japan, the US and Singapore,” he said．“I want to learn more about foreign cultures．” But he spends little time chatting on QQ as he sees it as a waste of time and money．“If you are really addicted to it, sometimes you can’t give your mind to your lessons,” he said．“And friends in your real life are always more important than those so-called friends you meet online．”

A．they have known each other well B．they have the same interest

C．they have enough free time D．they have nothing to do

B．it is easy and fast to get in touch with your friends

C．it is possible to live much closer to your friends

D．it is popular to make friends online

70．Which of the following sentence is TRUE according to the passage?

作文范文：

Boys and girls,

We high school students do have some growing pains, but we can rid of them correctly and wisely．

First, some of us are upset about their body styles and looks．It’s unnecessary and it’s not important at all．We needn’t care about it．It’s one’s inner beauty that mattes．Second, we sometimes seem to be misunderstood by our teachers, patents and classmates．Facing this, we can find a proper time to have a heart-to-heart talk with them, trying to remove the misunderstanding．Some of us have fewer friends．I think being open-minded and friendly will do you good．Third, we may fall behind others, which makes us feel stressed．Actually we can encourage ourselves to work efficiently, full of determination．Last, some of us don’t have much pocket money, so they feel unhappy．Isn’t it strange? So long as we have some, that’s enough．And we can learn to save money!

That’s all．Thank you．
