You may hear adults, especially your parents, ask you to spend less time in front of the screens. But at a camp called ID Tech, computers are the necessary tools for learning about robotics (机器人学) and video games.

Logan Doyle, 12, spent last week at this camp learning to write computer instructions for a video game he was creating. “l am trying to make the beginning of this game,” said Logan.

In the room, boys were playing a 3D racing video game. When they finished playing the game, they talked about what they liked and didn’t like about the game. Then the camper who designed the game could make it better.

Their teacher, Will Whitney, said the kids were learning problem-solving. “Kids meet a problem and think of different ways to solve it,” said Whitney. Like a lot of the teachers at the camp, Whitney attended ID Tech camp while growing up. As a kid, he loved video games. He loved the camp so much that he attended it seven years ago. “It was always the height of my summer,” he said.

Like English and Maths, it is important to understand technology. It will be important to many jobs in the future. “Technology is everywhere in our society, said Jan Plane, a computer science professor at the University of Maryland. “Whatever field kids go into, having some knowledge of technology is going to make a difference.”

Maybe the right kind of screen time is not such a bad idea after all. (1)What can students NOT learn at ID Tech camp? A . Problem-solving. B . Designing video games. C . Communication skills.

D . Writing computer instructions.

(2)What does Jan Plane think of learning technology for future jobs? A . Boring. B . Interesting. C . Dangerous. D . Useful.

(3)Which of the following is the writer’s opinion?

A . Parents should allow their kids to spend much time on computers. B . Kids should attend some activities during their holidays. C . It’s OK to use computers properly.

23. (10分) One day, I went to see my last patient(病人), an old woman. In the doorway, I saw she was struggling (挣扎) to put socks on her swollen (浮肿)feet in the bed. I stepped in, spoke quickly to the nurse, read her chart noting. I was almost in the clear that she was not in serious condition. I asked, “Could I help put on your socks? How are you feeling? Your sugars and blood pressure were high but they’re better today. The nurse mentioned you’re anxious to see your son. He’s visiting you today. It’s nice to have a family visit. I think you really look forward to seeing him.\

\

I was surprised as I helped her with the socks. She told me that her only son lived around the corner from her, but she had not seen him in five years. She believed that was the main cause of her health problems. After hearing her story and putting on her socks, I asked if there was anything else I could do for her. She shook her head no and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen.

Each story is different. Some are detailed; others are simple. Some have a beginning, middle and end; others don’t have clear ends. Some are true; others not. Yet all those things do not really matter. What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard — without interruption(打断) or judgment(评价).

It was that woman who taught me the importance of stopping, sitting down and truly listening. And, not long after, in an unexpected accident, I became a patient. 20 years later, I sit all the time — in a wheelchair.

For as long as I could, I continued to see patients from my chair. I believe in the power of listening. (1) How was the old woman? A . Her feet were swollen. B . Her sugars were high. C . She was not badly ill. D . Her blood pressure was better.

(2)How did the doctor know that the old woman’s son was visiting her? A . The nurse told him. B . The old woman told him.
