过去分词作状语，表示该分词与主句的主语是被动关系；过去分词短语用作状语，可以表示原因、时间、条件；分别相当于一个表示原因、时间、条件的状语从句。

Given a chance，I can surprise the world. 给我一次机会，我能使世界震惊。

本题考查分词的用法。determine在句中作状语，故应使用现在分词或过去分词形式，排除C项；而want在句中同样作状语，与其主语a computer teacher之间为被动关系，故答案为A。

2．When rescue did_come，we felt such relief and joy that many of us could not hide our tears.

当救援真的到来时，我们长长地松了口气，欣喜不已，许多人忍不住流下了眼泪。

The NEET generation

They are adults but not independent. They are energetic but choose not to work. They are called“NEETs”，that is，young people Not in Education ，Employment or Training.The word originated in the UK in the 1980s，and the phenomenon is now in ChinA．

“Most of the NEET people are the first generation of China’s one child policy，”believes Sun Yunxiao，a specialist with the China Youth Research Centre.Born in the late 1970s and 1980s，they are called the“little emperor”of the family and have grown up under attentions of parents and grandparents，which often prove to be boring as well as unnecessary.Many have got used to life under others’

support instead of creating their own.To make matters worse，they are also the products of test-guided education，few having strong professional or social skills. Until now there are still no official statistics(统计)of NEET numbers in China，but according

to one statistic issued at the 2005 NPC session，the number of young unemployed has for the first time surpassed laid-off workers in China，and 70 percent of these people，many with academic degrees，are dependent on their parents. To reduce NEET numbers，Sun Yunxiao insists that it is important to change Chinese parents’

thinking.Instead of arranging everything for their children，parents should help them learn to manage their own lives at an early age. Li Tianguo，a researcher at the Labour Science Study Institute，suggested that all middle schools and colleges should strengthen development education，opening classes of personal career design while increasing students’

time for social activities.Society should also set up special organizations to help NEETs learn professional skills and provide psychological(心理的)and even financial help to get them back to work. 1．What do we know about the term“NEET”？

A．It’s the name of an organization. B．It was originated in ChinA．

C．It might be“need”

and“eat”joining together. D．It’s a word formed in the same way as USA．

解析：选D

词义猜测题。NEET是“Not in Education，Employment or Training”的缩写，USA是“United States of America”的缩写，因此两个词的构词法相同。

2．They are NEETs now mainly because they________. A．are lazy C．are too proud

B．lack certain ability

D．are too well off 解析：选B

细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句中“few having strong professional or social skills”可知。

3．What can we learn from the statistic issued at the 2005 NPC session? A．Most laid-off workers are NEETs. B．Most young Chinese are NEETs. C．There are fewer laid-off workers than NEETs. D．There used to be more NEETs than laid-off workers. 解析：选C

细节理解题。根据“...according to one statistic issued at the 2005 NPC session，the number of young unemployed has for the first time surpassed laid-off workers in ChinA．”可知没有工作的年轻人的数量首次超过了下岗工人的数量。

4．What is suggested to help the youths stop being NEETs? A．Changing Chinese parents’

thinking. B．Improving school and college education.

C．Creating more job opportunities. D．Founding special organizations. 解析：选D

细节理解题。根据文章最后一句“Society should also set up special organization to help NEETs learn professional skills and ...”可知。
