大意理解题。文章第一自然说明了网瘾对不同年龄段的人都有影响，第二自然段之后讲述了网瘾对青少年和大学生的负面影响，沉溺于虚拟的世界，耽误学习，缺少和朋友现实生活的沟通等等，故答案应为B。

理解判断题。A 网瘾对青少年的影响是最大的，文中只说明对每个年龄段都有影响，只是第三自然段以青少年和大学生为例，并未说明大小的问题，故答案A是错误的；C选项people are addicted to games on the Internet只是其中的一个方面，不是得出的结论，只代表其中的一部分人群，故C选项是错误的；D选项虚拟的世界比现实生活更生动，更有吸引力，与文章的主旨相悖，故是错误的。They become hooked（着迷） on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation. They spend all free time surfing and don't concentrate on homework, so this addiction influences their grades and success at school.他们着迷于电脑，逐渐地他们的社会和学校生活受到了影响，他们花费所有的时间上网不能专心于学习，影响了他们的成绩。They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends.

It is a problem for the future. This addictive behavior is beginning to affect all the world. 十年前没有人会想到这种影响。这在将来也是一个问题，这种沉溺于网络的行为正在影响到了整个世界，故答案C是正确的；从文章中他们把大部分的时间都花在了上网上，少了和朋友的沟通可知沉溺于网络的人在现实生活中不活跃是正确的。而A选项中网瘾有助于网络的发展是与文章的主旨相悖的。故A是错误的。

细节理解题。依据文章第4段第1句"带有婴儿的父母要是能睡上一整晚觉或度一个三天的假日，那真是太幸运了。在我认识的人中，不会有人用fun（好玩）来描述他们抚养孩子的感受"，似乎会认为作者的意图是B项（出力不讨好，毫无回报的事）或D项（不可避免的痛苦来源）。实际上，作者真实想法应在第2句中体现：但是决定不生孩子的夫妻永远也体会不到看着孩子成长以及和孙子玩耍的那种乐趣、那种欣喜。这种乐趣、欣喜实际就是一种回报。所以选项C正确。

细节理解题。依据文章第1段第1句"The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled, pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness"（人们坚持充满趣味、毫无痛苦的生活就等于幸福这一信条实际上减少了他们获得真正幸福的可能性）。再依据文章最后一句"…all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all"（……生活中总是有如此多的fun的人实际上也许一点都不幸福）。可以看出要理解真正的幸福是什么就必须把fun和happiness区分开来。因为两者绝不等同。故选项D正确。C项应该是回答"怎样才能获得真正的幸福"这一问题，且作者并没在文中明确提到获得快乐就必须在任何情况下都忍受痛苦。所以D正确。

细节理解题。依据文章最后一句"And it liberates us from envy：we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all." 它把我们从嫉妒中解放出来：我们现在知道那些总是有那么多乐趣的人也许根本就不幸福，故选项D正确。

细节理解题。文章最后的调查数字表明在参与过the Homeless World Cup的人们当中，92%的人有了新的生活动力，93人成功戒掉毒瘾或烟瘾，由此可知这个运动会改变了这些人的生活，故D项正确。

推理题。根据第一段后3行Some social workers, the ones who clear up the worms, think we are in danger of carrying this concept of personal freedom to the point where serious risks are being taken with the health and safety of the old.可知social workers认为健康和安全比自由更重要。故B正确。

推理题。根据第二段中间But never forget that such operations are painful experiences, however good the results. And at what point should you stop treating the old body? Is it morally right to try to push off death by pursuing the development of drugs to excite the forgetful old mind and to activate the old body, knowing that it is designed to die?说明D项内容也就是我们要尝试所以的方法来保证老人是值得商榷的。故D正确。

细节题：第二段讲到了Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of a retail store（零售店）, but instead will warn their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangers and anyone who will listen. Store managers are often the last to hear complaints.，大意是顾客很少会向经理们抱怨，而是会提醒(alert)他们的朋友、亲戚、同事等。这里的alert也就是向人抱怨、劝其不要去该商场的意思。所以顾客们实际上经常抱怨，只是抱怨对象不是经理，而是身边的人，选D
