Too Much Internet? The Internet has become an important part of our modern lives. In fact, it is impossible for many people to imagine a day without some contact with the Internet. Most people use the Internet © Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – Trang 2/5
3. to shop, send e-mail, and for social networking. However, some people find it hard to control how much time they spend online. So, how much Internet is too much Internet? Experts agree that people who use the Internet so much that it causes problems with their daily activities are spending too much time online. They say that some people may actually be addicted to the Internet in much the same way as some people are addicted to gambling or alcohol. Signs of Internet addiction include spending more and more time online, reducing or giving up social, work-related, or hobby-related activities in favor of spending time online, and giving up sleep to spend time on the Internet. Experts say that this becomes a real problem when a person starts experiencing problems sleeping, problems in their home and work life, and problems in having good social relationships. People who use the Internet excessively also seem to be more likely to show signs of depression. How do you know if you are spending too much time online? Some common warning signs include checking your e-mail every few minutes, always thinking about your next online session, and getting complaints from the people around you about how much time you spend online. Showing any of these signs may mean that you are on your way to becoming addicted to the Internet. However, experts agree that there is hope. They say that simply understanding that spending too much time online is a problem may be the first step to solving the problem. They believe that, in most cases, doing something as simple as creating a better system for managing your time online can solve the problem. The Internet is a wonderful tool for communicating and finding information. However, as with most things in life, you have to learn to use it carefully, and make sure you keep a healthy balance between it and the other important things in your life.

Can Animals Talk? In 1977, a young Harvard graduate named Irene Pepperberg brought a one-year-old African gray parrot into her lab, and attempted something very unusual. At a time when her fellow scientists thought that animals could only communicate on a very basic level, Irene set out to discover what was on a creature’s mind by talking to it. The bird, named Alex, proved to be a very good pupil. Scientists at the time believed that animals were incapable of any thought. They believed that animals only reacted to things because they were programmed by nature to react that way, not because they had the ability to think or feel. Any pet owner would probably disagree. Pepperberg disagreed, too, and started her work with Alex to prove them wrong. Pepperberg bought Alex in a pet store. She let the store’s assistant pick him out because she didn’t want other scientists saying later that she’d deliberately chosen an especially smart bird for © Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – Trang 3/5
4. her work. Most researchers thought that Pepperberg’s attempt to communicate with Alex would end in failure—after all, his brain was only about the size of a walnut. However, Pepperberg’s experiment did not fail. In fact, over the next few years, Alex learned to imitate almost one hundred and fifty English words, and was even able to reason and use those words on a basic level to communicate. For example, when Alex was shown an object and was asked about its shape, color, or material, he could label it correctly. He could understand that a key was a key no matter what its size or color, and could figure out how the key was different from others. Pepperberg was careful not to exaggerate Alex’s success and abilities. She did not claim that Alex could actually ‘use’ language. Instead, she said that Alex had learned to use a two-way communications code. Alex seemed to understand the turn-taking pattern of communication. Although African gray parrots usually live to an age of fifty or so, Alex died suddenly when he was just thirty years old. However, in his short time on Earth, Alex helped to prove to many that animals are capable of far more complex communication than many scientists had ever expected. Alex’s last words to Pepperberg were, “You be good. I love you.” (Adapted from Select Reading - Intermediate by Linda Lee and Erik Gundersen) Question 35: The reading passage is primarily about___.
