Ⅱ.阅读理解 体裁 记叙文 题材 学校生活 词数 292 难度 ★★★ 建议用时 6.5分钟 (2013·泰安一模)“I don't want to buy a traditional yearbook.I can keep and share memories of my high school on the Internet.”You may often hear this from many American high school students now.Instead of buying a book，more and more students choose to sign up at myYearbook.com.
MyYearbook.com was created by two teenagers，Catherine Cook and her brother，18－year－old David Cook，in 2005.It had about 950，000 members in a year.The site allows people to create a profile with separate sections for high school，college，graduate school and professional
life.Students who sign up are linked to other people at their school.Acting as their own editors，they can select friends from their classmates.The site also connects students through clubs and sports pages.Like other so－called social－networking sites, it allows members to show photos and post messages.Students can do lots of things that old－fashioned yearbooks can't offer，including listening to music and watching videos.
Catherine and David developed the idea because they thought that their own yearbooks weren't good enough and were too expensive.“We just think yearbooks are obsolete，”said Catherine Cook，16.“If you think about it，all you're going to do with it is put it on the shelf and never really look at it.”Many American teenagers want different things out of their yearbooks.They like the idea of creating an online yearbook.That is the reason why myYearbook.com is becoming more and more popular.
Some people，however，still wonder if this free website can ever truly replace the traditional printed book of highschool memories—even for the generation that has grown up with the Internet.Some students would like to be the users of myYearbook.com as well as buying a traditional yearbook.The “war” between the tradition and the new technology will never end.Everyone is free to choose what he prefers and even has both.
【语篇解读】 更多的美国高中生不再选择买传统的年刊，而是选择使用myYearbook.com这个在线年刊网站。

Ladies__and__gentlemen，
I__feel__it__a__great__honor__to__have__a__chance__to__give__a__speech__here，talking__about fog and haze weather.Since the end of last year，fog and haze weather has occurred a lot in some areas of China，which has done great harm to our daily life.Many traffic accidents happened just because of the heavy fog and haze.Besides，more and more citizens have to go to see the doctor because of the serious disease caused by the fog and haze.
Now that we have realized the great harm caused by the fog and haze，we should take measures to reduce fog and haze weather.The government should suggest people go to work or school with the public transportation，such as the bus and the underground.Also more trees should be planted.As for me，I will go to school by bike or on foot.Would you join us in protecting the environment?
Thank you.
