He’s part of "Generation M" - those born after 1985 who 【51】______ up connected to everything from video games to cellphones.
"For us, it’s everyday life," said Juarez, 18, a freshman 【52】______ California State University at Sacramento (CSUS)
【53】______ , educators are now saying that not all Generation M-ers can synthesize the piles of information they’re accessing
"They’re geeky (与网络交往的), but they don’t know what to 【54】______ with their geekdom," said Barbara O’Connor, a communications studies professor who has been involved in a nationwide 【55】______ to improve students’ computer-research skills.
In a recent nationwide test to 【56】______ their technological "literacy" – their ability to use the Internet to complete class assignments - only 49 percent correctly evaluated a set of Web sites for objectivity, authority and timeliness. Only 35 per cent could correctly narrow an overly 【57】______ Internet search.
About 130 Sacramento State students, including Juarez, participated in the
experimental test, 【58】______ to 6,300 college students across the country.

"You see an open search box, you type in a few words and you 【61】______ the button," said Goff, who is involved in the testing.
"They take at face value 【62】______ shows up at the top of the list as the best stuff."
Educators say that these sloppy (马虎) research skills are troubling.
"We look at that as a foundational skill, in the same way we 【63】______ math and English as a foundational skill," said Lorie Roth, assistant vice-chancellor for academic programs in the CSU system.
Measuring how well students can "sort the good 【64】______ the bad" on the
Internet has become a higher priority for CSU, Roth said.
CSU is considering 【65】______ a mandatory (强制性的) assessment test on technological literacy for all freshmen, much as it has required English and math placement tests since the 1980s.
