Một trường đại học mới mà không có thư viện gần đây đã được mở ở Mỹ. Tất cả các thông tin thường tìm thấy trong thư viện bây giờ được lưu trữ trong các máy tính của trường đại học. Không để máy tính của họ, người dùng có thể gửi tin nhắn và nhận thông tin qua đường dây điện thoại. Tuy nhiên, điều này có nghĩa là mỗi học sinh phải có quyền truy cập vào một máy tính, và nhiều trường đại học đang làm cho một yêu cầu này cho sinh viên năm nhất. Các trường đại học bây giờ có các lỗ cắm máy tính trong mọi phần của trường đại học. Nghiên cứu không còn giới hạn ở một địa điểm.
Bảng thông báo bằng máy tính được sử dụng giống như các bảng truyền thống trong các trường học và cao đẳng. Sự khác biệt là hơn 20 triệu người có thể truy cập vào họ. Nếu học sinh muốn thảo luận về toán vào lúc 3 giờ sáng, thì đó không phải là vấn đề. Họ đăng tin nhắn trên bảng tin và tìm những người khác muốn thảo luận về cùng một chủ đề.
Công nghệ bây giờ có nghĩa là sinh viên có thể có được một văn bằng mà không có trong khuôn viên trường. Có nhiều người hoài nghi về phương pháp giáo dục mới này, nhưng mối quan tâm của họ ít có tác động

In the UK, people are finally starting to listen to the message about recycling. British families now recycle about 22% of their waste. Only for five years ago, the figure was 10%. That’s good news for the environment- but there’s a lot more than to do. Some other European countries, like Germany and Holland, already recycle about 60% of their waste and that’s the goal for the UK. Households in England which produce 25 million tons of waste a year. More than half of this is garden waste, paper, cardboard and kitchen waste – with which people could recycle. They could also recycle plastic, wood, glass and aluminum cans. In fact, if everybody in the UK was recycled all of their drink cans, there would be 14 million fewer rubbish bins of waste each year. Recycling isn’t the only way to reduce the amount of rubbish what we throw away. More than 40% of the waste in our bins is packaging from shopping. If we changed the way to we shop, we could easily reduce the amount of waste. For example, street markets and small shops often use less packaging than supermarkets. And being of course, if we grow our own vegetables, there wouldn’t be any packaging at all. |

Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answers.
The latest addiction to trap thousands of people is the Internet, which has been blamed for broken relationships, job losses, financial ruin, and even suicide. Psychologists now recognize Internet Addiction Syndrome (IAS) as a new illness that could cause serious problems and ruin many lives.
IAS is similar to other problems like gambling, smoking and drinking: addicts have dreams about the Internet; they need to use it as the first thing in the morning; they lie to their parents and partners about how much time they spent online; they wish they could cut down, but are unable to do so. A recent study found that many users spend up to 40 hours a week on the Internet. Some of the addicts are teenagers who are already hooked on computer games and who find it very difficult to resist the games on the Internet.
What is the best title of the passage?
Hooked on the Net
