Exercise 10. Read
the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Let's
see if you can correctly answer the following question: At what age are
Latter-day Saint youth allowed to date? Of course, you probably immediately
said, "16". OK, then, how about this one: At what age are you allowed
to have a boyfriend or girlfriend? You may be thinking, “Um, 16. Didn't I just
answer that?" Well, if that was your answer, then, even though you aced the first question, you missed the
second one. Just because you can date when you turn 16 doesn't mean you should
immediately start looking for a steady boyfriend or girlfriend.
For
decades, prophets have preached that youth who are in no position to marry
should not pair off exclusively. For instance, President Hinckley (1910-2008)
said, "When you are young, do not get involved in steady dating. When you
reach an age where you think of marriage, then is the time to become so
involved. But you boys who are in high school don't need this, and neither do
the girls”. So what does this counsel really mean, and what are the reasons for
it?
To
begin with, there are two different types of dating: casual dating and steady
(or serious) dating. The distinction between the two has to do with
exclusivity. With casual dating, there is no exclusivity. The two people aren't
“a couple” or “an item”, and they don't refer to each other as a “boyfriend” or
“girlfriend”. They don't pair off. People who are casually dating are simply
friends. This is the kind of dating the Church encourages you to do after you
turn 16. You should put aside a need to find a “one and only”. If you're dating
casually, you don't expect a relationship to become a romance. You have fun;
you do a variety of things with a variety of people. On the other hand, steady
dating means the couple is exclusive with one another. They expect each other
not to date anyone else or to be emotionally or physically close with other
people. Couples who date seriously consider the future, because there is a real
possibility they could stay together. This is the kind of dating the Church
encourages young adults (generally, people in their 20s) to progress toward,
because that's the age when they should be thinking of marrying.
You
should avoid becoming exclusive as teenagers, because an exclusive relationship
requires a high level of commitment from both partners, and you're not in a
position to make that kind of commitment as teens – neither emotionally,
physically, nor in terms of your future plans. As President Boyd K. Packer,
President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, has said to youth, “Avoid
steady dating. Steady dating is courtship, and surely the beginning of
courtship ought to be delayed until you have emerged from your teens”.
118. It can be
inferred from the first paragraph that ____.
A. dating doesn't mean having
exclusive boyfriend or girlfriend
B.
teenagers are supposed to have a steady boyfriend or girlfriend
C.
teenagers date as many boyfriends or girlfriends as they can
D.
young people shouldn't be allowed to date at 16
119. The word “aced” in paragraph 1 is closest in
meaning to ____.
A.
gave up B. misled C. succeeded in D. understood
120. According to the
passage, what is NOT true about casual dating?
A.
You can be friend with each other. B. You
don't pair off exclusively.
C. You find your "one and
only”. D. You meet different kinds of people.
121. It is stated in
the passage that steady dating
____.
A.
includes a variety of things with a variety of people
B.
is courtship that you ought to have in your teens
C.
requires hardly any commitment
D. suits people who are in their
20s
122. Which of the
following would serve as the best title for the passage?
A.
At what age are young people allowed to date?
B.
Casual dating or steady dating.
C. Make your teenage dating by
keeping it casual.
D.
Popular kinds of dating for teenagers.
Exercise 11. Read
the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
It
has long been seen as a less romantic way of meeting Mr Right. But finding love
over the Internet is a good way of meeting a marriage partner, research has
showed. It found that one in five of those who have used dating sites to find
their perfect partner have gone on to marry someone they met over the web. The
study, by consumer group Which?, also revealed that more than half of the 1,504
people questioned had been on a date with someone they met in cyberspace. Sixty-two per cent agreed
that it was easier to meet someone on a dating site than in other ways, such as
in a pub or club, or through friends. At the same time, the under-35s were more
likely to know someone who had been on a date or had a long-term relationship
with someone they met through online dating. The survey also found that
Match.com and Dating Direct were the most popular dating websites.
Jess
Ross, editor of which.co.uk, said: “Online dating is revolutionising the way
people meet each other. Switching the computer on could be the first step to
success.” According to industry surveys, more than 22 million people visited
dating websites in 2007, and more than two million Britons are signed up to
singles sites. Previous research has shown that couples who get to know each
other via emails are more likely to see each other again after their first
date. Two years ago, a study by Bath University revealed that those who met on
dating websites were 94 per cent more likely to see each other after their
first meeting than other couples. The researchers studied relationships formed
on online dating website Match.com over a six-month period. They found that
consummate love - described as a balance of passion, intimacy and commitment -
was evident at around 12 months into a relationship. Of the 147 couples who
took part in the study, 61 per cent said their relationships had high levels of
these components. The researchers also found that men were more likely to find
true love on the Internet than women. Some 67 per cent of men but just 57 per
cent of women said they had experienced consummate love with an online partner.
Companionate
love - a relationship with high levels of intimacy and commitment, but lower
levels of passion - was the next most frequently experienced form of love,
exhibited by 16 per cent of the study group. Dr Jeff Gavin, who led the team,
said: “To date, there has been no systematic
study of love in the context-of relationships formed via online dating
sites. But with the popularity of online dating, it is imperative we understand the factors that influence satisfaction in
relationships formed in this way.” Charlotte Harper, of Match.com, said: “We
were thrilled to find so many of our former members have found love. It
supports our belief that the Internet does in fact encourage old-fashioned
courtship.”
123. According to the passage, online dating is
seen as ____.
A.
a modern romantic way of dating B. an economical way of
dating

the fastest way to find a soul mate D. a great change in the way
