(2019·东北三省四市教研联合体二模)The UNICEF(United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund )report estimates that around one­third of the world's youth—most in developing countries—are not online.For example, in Africa, only 40 percent of children are online. In Europe, by contrast, 88 percent are online.

UNICEF reports that one in three Internet users around the world are children.Even though so many children are online, the organization says little is known about the effect of digital technology on children's well­being.

More importantly, the report finds that little is being done to protect children from the dangers of the digital world.For example, many children around the world have a digital footprint before they can actually walk and make real footprints. Parents often post photos of their children and share stories about them.And a child's medical records may be stored in the cloud.

As children grow, they may share additional details about themselves or photos and videos of themselves.But making all this personal information public may put a child at risk.Laurence Chandy, Director of Data, Research and Policy for UNICEF, explains that these risks include the misuse of children's private information, access to harmful content and cyber­bullying.

Besides cyber­bullying, Laurence Chandy says children are also at risk from online criminal networks.These criminals target children for some of the worst forms of exploitation and abuse.He says safeguarding children's privacy on the Internet is an issue of major concern.

“We really emphasize the importance of putting in place safeguards to prevent children's personal data from falling in the wrong people's hands and protecting their identities.This is an issue which is only going to grow in importance.”

Parents, caregivers, teachers and school administrators, businesses and policymakers need to work together to ensure safe access and protect children from the possible harm of a growing digital world.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五

(2019·石家庄市高中毕业班模拟考试一)Three in five people in the UK hold a library card. For some, libraries are a shelter from the stresses of day­to­day life.   1   If you're considering joining your local library, now is the time to do so. And if you need any more encouragement, here are several reasons why you should.

Most libraries in the UK allow members of the general public to come and go as they like.   2   You can also take out a library card and borrow books for free, although you will inevitably face a fine for late returns.

  3   Imagine just how many books you have at your fingertips with a library card. There are lots of modern ones, as well as original ones, and you can continue to expand your learning and vocabulary all the time. It's a priceless experience, especially for kids, and also a great way to level the educational playing field.

Libraries develop with times. They have changed greatly since decades ago.   4   Some libraries have apps so you can see when your books are due back and even reserve books in some cases. There are also libraries which let you access books in digital formats on your mobile device—pretty cool.

Libraries are one of very few spaces left in towns and cities where members of the public can come together and actually be and feel like a community. They have noticeboards to offer services like exercise classes or learning centers.   5 

A．Libraries help people learn.

B．Libraries help educate the kids.

C．They create a great sense of community.

D．You can go in, settle down and read a book without being charged a penny.

E．Most libraries now have computers and allow people to borrow CDs and DVDs.

F．Libraries help us save money as we're borrowing books rather than buying them.

G．For others, particularly the homeless and people in poverty, a lifeline to the world.

1．G　[根据空前一句“For some, libraries are a shelter from the stresses of day­to­day life”可知，对一些人来说，图书馆是躲避日常生活压力的庇护所；据此可推知，空处应与此对应，介绍其他人对图书馆的看法，故G项符合语境。]

2．D　[根据空后一句“You can also take out a library card and borrow books for free, although you will inevitably face a fine for late returns”可知，你也可以拿出借书证免费借书，不过如果逾期还书，你将不可避免地面临罚款；据此可推知，空处应是介绍在图书馆免费读书的情况，故D项符合语境，衔接上下文。且D项中的“You can”与空后一句中的“You can also”呼应。]

3．A　[根据空处所在位置可知，空处为该段的主题句；结合对本段的整体理解，尤其是该段第三句“There are lots of modern ones, as well as original ones, and you can continue to expand your learning and vocabulary all the time”可知，通过阅读，你可以拓展你的学习，扩大你的词汇量；据此可知，该段主要说明了图书馆可以帮助人学习，故A项正确。]
