Born in the 2000s, what do you think of your generation? Young, creative, connected, global smart,maybe good-looking? But what do other people think about your generation?

Some adults worry that you're more interested in the phone than the world around you. They see you as the “face-down generation” and wonder how you will deal with school, friends, and family. Are today's teenagers too busy texting and taking selfies (自拍) to become successful in real life or “IRL” as you would say?

Other adults worry that today's youth are spoiled(溺爱) and don't want to face the challenges of adult life. Many children born in the 1990s and 2000s were raised by “helicopter parents” who were always there to do everything for them. So today’s young people seem to prefer to live like teenagers even when they are in their 20s or 30s.

Does the face-down generation need a heads-up? Well, probably not. The fact is that many of today's teenagers are better educated and more creative than past generations. They also seem to be willing to become leaders. More young people volunteer to serve their communities than ever. There are also brave young people such as Malala Yousafzai, the teenager who won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for pushing girls’ rights to go to school.

So if you are one of them born in the 2000s, there’s reason to be hopeful about the future. Things are looking up for the face-down generation.

49. How did the writer lead the readers to the passage?

A. By asking questions.                   B. By showing his ideas.       

C.By describing the situation.              D. By giving the reason.       

50. Why are young people born in the 2000s called“face-down generation” ?

A. Because they are always busy with homework with their heads down.

B. Because they are not closely connected to the people around them.

C.Because they show great interest in the phone and use it too much.

D. Because they are not confident and feel shamed with themselves.

51. In the writer's eyes, today's teenagers______.

A. are not creative because of the educational problem.

B. are willing to take part in many social activities.

C. are smarter and more good-looking than their parents.
