READING
Exercise 1.Read the article and decide if the sentences are true (T) or false (F). Does the time really fly?
It was Lunar New Year and I’d returned home for the traditional dinner. We had all finished eating when my sister said, “Has it really been a year since we last sat down for a family meal? Where has the time gone?” We often say that ‘time flies’. It’s a saying that means time passes very quickly. Curiously, as we get older, time seems to pass faster and faster. Why does this happen?
Some people think that we had fewer new or important events in our lives as we get older. Years seem longer when we were young because many things are happening. Also, time isn’t so important as we get older. Children often count the days until a special event. When weget older, we have too many things to think about.
Luckily, time doesn’t actually pass faster as we get older. A day still has 24 hours, and an hour still has 60 minutes. Maybe we need to find a way to slow down our lives and not try to be busy all the time.
1. The writer’s sister feels surprised.
2. The saying ‘Time flies’ means that time passes faster as we grow older.
3. Time is more important when we’re young.
4. According to the writer, times really flies.
5. The writer thinks we should do more things in our lives to make time pass more slowly.
Exercise 2.Read the text, and mark the sentences T (true), or F (false).
Children under age six watch an average of about two hours of screen media a day, mainly TV and DVDs. Children and teenagers from eight to eighteen spend nearly 4 hours a day in front of a TV screen and two more hours on the computer and playing video games.
Children watching too much TV can become fat, violent, have less energy and a harder time at school. Children won’t turn off the television, but they should choose the suitable programmes. Parents should provide necessary material: books to read, board games, art or sporting equipment.
The TV is usually on during dinner. That’s too bad because your most important family conversation will happen during the family dinner. It’s a good idea when there is no TV set in the bedroom, and the children agree.
1. Small children watch about 2 hours of TV and DVDs a day.
2. The screen timeof older children and teenagers is often 4 hours a day.
3. Children should turn off TV all day.
4. Children may watch less TV when they have other material to do.
5. We shouldn’t have any conversations during the meal.
6. Parents should buy any TV sets.

Texting Teens
Recent surveys show a dramatic increase in the amount of texting by teenagers. One survey says that more than 66% of teenagers own a mobile, and they send about 190 texts per week! Some teenagers send hundreds of texts a day. In fact, many teenagers spend so much time texting, they can’t imagine life without their mobile. So why do teenagers like texting? What makes it better than phone calls? Many teens say that texting is easier, faster and more fun. Texts are private -they can send texts during class time and no one can hear what they’re saying. Texts are cheaper —on a lot of phones,and you can have unlimited texts: it makes no difference if you send one text or a hundred texts, the cost is the same.
Teenagers also say that texting is the best way to stay in touch with friends. They don’t feel lonely or sad because they can talk to their friends any time. It’s nice to get texts from friends, and it helps them feel relaxed if they are nervous or depressed. But texting has a negative side too. Too much texting can make your thumbs hurt!
1. Teenagers are texting more than before.
2. Some teenagers send a hundred texts per hour.

His job was to createa way for customers to communicating using icons. His efforts resulted in the creation of 176 icons, which he called “emojis” coming from twoJapanese Words “e” (picture) and “mojis” (character)
Today there are more than 1,800 emojis. Emojis usually don’t have any labels, so their meaning is up to those who use them. Emojis can serve as a social media status marker. Scientific studies reveal that when people look at a smiley face online, they have the same feeling when they look at a real human face. People can remember what they read more easily thanks to emojis. People in offices say that if negative feedback from a boss goes with positive emojis, employees don’t feel bad about the message.

Marina Martin, a young game tester
Most days I finish my homework and then I have to play computer games for the rest of the afternoon. Yes, I have to! You see, I earn money by looking for mistakes in games.
I’ve always been crazy about computer games. My dad’s a journalist and my mum’s a photographer, so there’s been a computer in the house since before I was born. I can remember playing very simple games on it when I was less than five years old and my dad telling me to switch it off and go outside.
I was online one day and I saw an advertisement from a video game company. They were looking for young people to give their opinions about some of their new games. I contacted them but I wasn’t old enough because I was 14.
Three years later, several companies now send me their games. I often spend hours on the same game. I have to play it from start to finish several times, look at all the menus and try all different ways of playing it. While I’m doing this, I take notes and then write a clear email which the company can understand easily.
You have to work quickly because the company often wants to sell their new game as soon as possible. I may have to spend a lot of the weekend testing.However, I think I’m very lucky that my hobby has become a job. Most of the time, I love it.
