Teens don’t understand the big fuss. As the first generation to grow up in a wired world, they hardly know a time when puters weren’t around, and they eagerly catch the chance to spend hours online, chatting with friends. So what? But researchers nationwide are increasingly worried that teens are being isolated, less skillful at person-to-person relationships, and perhaps numb to the cheatings that are so much a part of the e-mail world. “and a teen’s sense of self and values may be changed in a world where personal connections can be limitless,” said Sherry Turkle. Another researcher, Robert Kraut, said he’s worried about the “opportunity costs” of so much online time for youths. He found that teens who used puters, even just a few hours a week, showed increased signs of loneliness and social isolation. “Chatting onine may be better than watching television, but it’s worse than hanging out with real friends,” he said. Today’s teens, however, don’t see anything strange in the fact that the puter takes up a central place in their social lives, “School is busy and full of pressure. There’s almost no time to just hang out.” said Parker Rice, 17. “Talking online is just catch up time.” Teens say they feel good about what they say online or taking the time to think about a reply. Some teens admit that asking someone for a date, or breaking up, can be easier in message form, though they don’t want to do so. But they insist there’s no harm. 53．She researchers argue that___． A．teens may develop a different sense of values B．nothing is wrong with teens' chatting online C．teens can manage their social connections D．spending hours online does much good to teens 54．Teens think that talking online can help them ____． A．use puters properly B．improve their school work C．develop an interest in social skills D．reduce their mental pressures 55．The text mainly deals with __ _． A．teens' pleasant online experience B．teens' puter skills and school work C．the effects of the puter world on teens D．different opinions on teens' chatting online 56．The purpose of the text is to ____． A．describe puter research results B．draw attention to teens' puter habits C．suggest ways to deal with problem teens D．discuss problems teens have
