21、It might be fun to use your smartphone, but be careful. Too much screen time may be harmful to your health.

First, it is bad for your eyes. A researcher called Sarah Hinkley says the problem comes from the blue light that the screen gives out. Looking at a smartphone for a long time can cause eye strain(劳损), headaches and dry eyes. So it is a good idea to take a break every 15 minutes when you are working at a computer or using a smartphone.

Second, screen use can do harm to children’s brains. A new study shows that using screens too much can affect(影响) how children’s brains grow. If children use screens for more than one hour a day, they might have lower levels of white matter in their brains. White matter is a key to the development of language and reading skills. So it is wise to cut down the time of children using all kinds of screens.

Third, using screens too much will affect your sleep. According to a study, about 95% of the people between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially the young people under 20. Doctors say that the light from those electronics at night may make you excited before you go to bed. Then it’s hard for you to get enough sleep. So you’d better turn off smartphones, TVs, and all other screens an hour before your bedtime.

To keep healthy, doctors and researchers strongly advise that you shouldn’t use screens for long hours.

【1】The blue light from your screens can cause ________.

A．eye strain

B．headaches

C．dry eyes

D．A, B & C

【2】According to the passage, you can’t sleep well because you ________.

A．take a break every 15 minutes

B．have lower levels of white matter

C．use screens too much before bedtime

D．are the people from 13 to 64

【3】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A．Using smartphones for long hours does harm to your eyes.

B．A lot of screen time affects children’s brain growth.

C．The light from electronics at night may make you excited.

D．People of all ages mustn’t use electronics.

【4】You may read the passage in ________.

A．a magazine

B．a travel diary

C．a guidebook

D．a novel

【5】What is the main idea of the passage?

A．The ways to keep healthy.

B．The harm of using screens too much.

C．The ways to use screens.

D．The advantages of using screens.

22、   When I was a kid, I got interested in astronomy(天文学), I often watched northern lights in my hometown in Lapland. I used to wonder how big the universe might be and what are “behind” the stars. But as I grew up and finally went to college, I hardly had any time to develop my hobby because of too much homework. It was in 2009 that I rediscovered astronomy. I found an astronomy magazine in a library and immediately I got interested in astronomy again.

When I start reading astronomy books and magazines, I start finding out how many interesting things there are outside the planet. I realize that the information I am reading, hearing and watching opens a door to a huge world of interesting things.

However, I do not have much time for my hobbies. Many times I would like to observe an object in the night sky, but I am working or I have to look after my kids. So I share my hobbies with my kids. I encourage them to observe the stars together with me. I read kids’ astronomy books for them and tell them about the moon, stars, the sun and many other interesting things. We all find it interesting at the same time.

I enjoy astronomy as a hobby and I hope other parents like me can read books and magazines about it. Just imagine that you and your family sit together watching the stars and talking in the garden on a summer night! How cool it will be!

23、Sara went to a boarding school. Here is a letter she wrote to her parents from the school.

Dear Mom and Dad,

I’m afraid I have some bad news for you. I have been very naughty and the headmaster is very angry with me. He is going to write to you. You must come and take me away from here.

The trouble started last night when I was smoking a cigarette (香烟) in bed. This is against the rules of school. As I was smoking, I heard someone coming towards the room. So I threw the cigarette away. Unluckily, the cigarette fell into the waste-paper basket, which caught fire. Soon the whole room was burning.

The headmaster called for the fire department. The school is far from the town and by the time the firefighters arrived, the whole school was on fire. Many of the girls are in hospital.

The headmaster said that the fire was all my fault and you must pay for the damage (损失). He will send you a list for about a million dollars.

PS: None of the above is true, but I have failed my exams. I just want you to know how bad things could have been!

24、Healthy eating doesn't just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some advice on healthy eating.

Eat with others. It can help you to see others' healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.

Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty—sometimes you are just thirsty, you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.

Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you don't eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.

Eat healthy snacks like fruits, yogurt or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn't mean you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.

Don't eat dinner late. With our busy life, we always put off eating dinner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8–10 hours.
