12、each younger teens, grades 69, about the importance of fathers in childrens lives, the legal and financial responsibilities of parenting.Teen teacher training goals & objectivesThe goal of the teen teacher training is to better understand the complex problems surrounding legal fatherhood in our soci

13、ety. By discussing what makes healthy families, explaining the meaning of paternity（父亲的身份）, and examining the risks people take in their lives, teens will develop the skills needed to make informed decisions in their own relationships and, finally, teach this information to others.Whats in it for me

14、?An opportunity to:Learn life skills like communication, decision making, and problem solving.Get the chance to use knowledge in meaningful and effective ways.Develop leadership, planning, teamwork, time management, and organizational skills to help you in every aspect of your life.Forming lasting r

18、 how to avoid risks in life23. According to the passage, who will benefit most from “Dads Make a Difference”?A. fathers and sonsB. mothers and daughtersC. teen teachers and adult mentorsD. teens and societiesBInternet use appears to cause a decline in psychological well-being（安康）, according to resea

19、rch at Carnegie Mellon University.Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less frequently, the two-year study showed. And it wasnt that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but t

20、hat using the Net actually appeared to cause the bad feeling. Researchers are puzzling over the results, which were completely contrary to their expectations. They expected that the net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to comm

21、unicate with others. The fact that Internet use reduces time available for family and friends may account for the drop in well-being, researchers suggested. Faceless, bodiless “virtual”（虚拟的）communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation, and the relationship formed thr

22、ough it may be shallower. Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives. “But its important to remember this is not about the technology per se; its about how it is used,” says psychologist Christine Riley of Intel, one of the studys

23、sponsors. “It really points to the need for considering social effects in terms of how you design applications and services for technology.”24. The best title for this passage would be _.A.

What does the underlined Latin word “per se” (in Para. 5) mean?A. probablyB. absolutelyC. oneselfD. itself27. Whats the tone of the passage?A. Optimistic.B. Critical.C. Objective.D. Pessimistic.CIn cities with

26、rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord (房东) can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartment. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics sa

27、y that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartm

28、ents are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city. Some experts argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an empl

29、oyer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Th

30、us, critics hold the opinion that an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage. Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell th

Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that
