Surfing the Internet can be as addictive as drugs, alcohol or gambling, a University of Pittsburgh researcher said last month. In a study of almost 400 men and women in Canada, researchers found Internet addition hooked people into spending 40 hours or more a week online, most often involved in role-playing games or engaging in chat room discussions. One 17-year-old boy was so addicted to Internet activities that his parents had to admit him to a drug and alcohol rehabilitation hospital for 10 days for treatment. One woman, described by friends, family and children as the perfect homemaker, wife and mother, became so addicted to the Internet that she would not cook, clean or do the laundry and was neglecting her children and husband because she was spending as much as 12 hours a day talking to acquaintances on the Internet. Finally her husband said, "Choose me or the computer. " She divorced him. Psychologist Kimberly Young, Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh's Bradford campus, found that 76 percent of the subjects in the study spend as average of 40 hours a week on the Internet. Of the 396 people who met Young's criteria for addicted Internet users, 157 were men, 239 women. The men were younger with an average age of 29; the women averaged 43 years of age. The largest group of addicted users of the Internet was people who were not working outside the home: homemakers, students and those who were disabled or retired. In a presentation at the annual meeting of the American Psychological Association in Toronto, 82 percent of the addicted users said they had slowly drifted into their addiction.

问答题Peer Reinforcement Peer reinforcement is a method of behavior modification. If an individual makes a blameworthy mistake or displays other inappropriate behavior, it is usually ineffective simply to tell him that he is wrong. It is far more useful to find someone of his same status—a "peer"—who does not display the unacceptable behavior. This "model" will get the miscreant's attention and, it is hoped, lead to improvement in the latter's behavior. Question: Explain how the professor's example of teachers using strategy to change the misbehavior of a student demonstrates the concept of peer reinforcement in the reading passage. Now hear a talk on the same subject.

While for much the 20th century, America has enjoyed excess energy capacity in the transportation and utility sectors, this is no longer the case. Sustained economic growth since the 1980s, combined with declining domestic fuel production, an aging energy delivery infrastructure, increasing numbers of power plants reaching the end of their licensed and/or productive lives and increased federal, state and local regulatory barriers to the construction of new power plants, have produced rapidly rising energy prices. Estimates indicate that during the next 20 years, U. S. oil consumption will grow by one-third and electricity demand could increase by more than 45 percent. To meet these needs, the Bush Administration has estimated that the U. S. will need to bring between 1300 and 1900 new power plants on-line during the next 20 years. Leaving aside for the moment, how this energy will get from the power plant to our homes and businesses—the transmission problem—the question is, what will be the source of energy for these power plants. Fossil fuels are relatively abundant and are significantly less costly than renewable energy sources such as wind power, solar power, geothermal power and the burning of biomass. However, the price of renewable energy, particularly wind power, has fallen significantly in recent years and is quickly becoming, under certain conditions, cost competitive with conventional fossil fuel energy. Environmentalists also point out that burning fossil fuels causes air pollution and emits greenhouse gases which, many people argue, are causing potentially catastrophic global warming. In short, renewable energy promoters claim that wind power is both cheap and "green." Neither claim is true. Now listen to part of a lecture on the topic you just read about. Question: Summarize the points made in the lecture you just heard, explaining how they cast doubt on points made in the reading.

DEHYDRATION Dehydration is the condition in which body water output exceeds water input. Dehydration may develop with either water deprivation or excessive water loss. Symptoms include thirst, dry skin and mouth, rapid heartbeat, low blood pressure, weakness, exhaustion, and delirium. If not corrected, dehydration will end in death. When water intake is inadequate, the blood becomes concentrated. The mouth becomes dry, and the brain initiates drinking behavior. The first signal is thirst. Thirst drives one to seek water, but lags behind the body's need because by the time thirst is felt the body has already lost some of its water. Now cover the passage and listen to the recording. When you hear the question, begin preparing your response. Explain dehydration and how the example given by the professor illustrates the condition.

问答题Creeping Normalcy Creeping normalcy is a phenomenon often met with in sociological study. Put simply, people will accept gradual changes whose net effect is detrimental, even though they would sharply resist any sudden change producing the same effect. Common examples include gradual tax increases, "acceptably low' inflation rates, and shrinking real wages. In colloquial English the phenomenon is also referred to as "the camel's nose", "the slippery slope", and "giving someone an inch." Question: Explain how the professor's personal experience of working as a TA in graduate school demonstrates the concept of creeping normalcy in the reading passage. Now hear a talk on the same subject.

问答题Consumer Motivation Research In psychology, motivation is described as the initiation, direction, strength and continuity of certain behaviors. It may be thought that people do any behavior with but one motivation and that one conscious. However, things are not like that. In fact, a number of factors are always at play. In order to help identify these, companies make questionnaire surveys among consumers. But sometimes even the customer doesn't know the exact reasons for his buying choices and non-choices. So, questionnaire research can not reflect the motivations of consumers accurately. Question: Using information from the reading and the lecture, explain how the consumer motivation research can help companies promote their business. Now hear a talk on the same subject.
