D Family vlogging-the frequent recording and uploading of personal videos of the family,usually on video sharing website-has become big business nowadays, especially among parents of young children.The more viewers such videos can get,the more money the family can make.At first thought,it does seem like an easy way to make money.However,are we doing right by putting their lives up for public For one thing.as the children grow up,they increasingly become aware that what attention? they do needs to be admirable enough for the public to enjoy-Being young children, they also would want to do whatever it takes to please others.They then feel the pressure to be perfect,and as that is something not always possible,they become anxious and stressed.Comments from viewers and the expectations of sponsors( can also affect the parents'reactions towards their children. Another problem is the lack of privacy in the children's lives.As the children reach adolescence,there is a greater need for personal space.At 12 or 13,very few children would appreciate being filmed while eating or having a conversation with their friends.Teenhood is a time of significant change in an individual,both physically and emotionally,and is a time when parents need to protect their children and guide them,instead of exposing them to the eyes of the public. Family vlogging can be irresistible,given how it allows parents to bring greater fun to their family lives.There is also the easy money and the fame to look forward to. Indeed,all would probably go well,but only as long as parents keep in mind that,if not managed well,making their children live their lives in the unforgiving eyes of the public could prove to be a big mistake. 32.How does vlogging about children's lives influence the family?

A.To introduce a new big business B.To show how vlogging influence people's lives C.To peruade parents to watch out for comments from viewers. D.To convince parents of the danger of vlogging about children's lives 35.What's the writer's attitude to vlogging about children's lives? A negative B.positive C.neutral D.uninterested 第二节共5小恩.每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的速项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两 项为多余进项， You've heard it many times:first impressions are lasting.When an important first impression ends up with failure,this warning can feel like a death sentence.36 It won't be easy.but it is possible to cheer up after leaving a bad first impression.Or you can even tum it into a good one.
