25、We use our smart phones to carry out many tasks every day. Many of us have become so reliant on them. However, it is bad for our eyes and unhealthy to use too much phone.

A study shows that smart phone owners usually start to use their phones early in the morning. They check personal emails and Wechat. And before they get out of bed, many people often check the weather, read the news, and send a message or two to friends. After getting up, they often take photos of food, themselves, and even whatever they can see with their phones. They share their photos with their friends. The research finds that users pick up their phones more than l,500 times to do different tasks in an average(通常的) week. And the smart phone users are on their phone for three hours and sixteen minutes a day. That is to say, people use their phones for almost one full day each week.

Using phones will take much time and it's also bad for our health. Many people stay up late to play phones, and mobile phones will influence our sleep. Without using the phones, many people will feel sad. Many owners also find they use their phones without realizing they're doing so.

26、   The earth is about 4.6 billion years old. We humans have lived on the earth for only 35,000 years, but during this period, we have changed our planet in many ways.

All over the world, people have cut down millions of trees. Forests have become deserts, and so many kinds of animals and plants are disappearing. Factories have also polluted the land and the water. As a result, many rivers and lakes are now “dead”.

Around the earth, there’s a special kind of oxygen called “ozone”. Now air pollution is destroying it and making a very big hole in the ozone layer. Too much harmful radiation from the sun passes through the hole and reaches the earth directly. This is very dangerous, because it can cause cancer.

Carbon dioxide in the air has increased a lot. It mainly comes from different kinds of burning oil, coal and wood. This has formed a “blanket” around the earth. The heat from the sun can’t escape, so the temperature is rising. This is called “the greenhouse effect”. It causes the level of the ocean to rise and the climate of the earth to change.

All these problems are very serious, so we must do something now.

【1】How long have humans lived on the earth?

A．35,000 years.

B．46,000 years.

27、

The ancient silk road was a once in a life time journey. It was one of the most important milestones of trade and culture in world history, and the pioneer, Zhang Qian, could not be easily forgotten by history. He was an outstanding diplomat, traveler and explorer in the Han Dynasty of China, honored as the “the first Chinese to open their eyes to see the world” and “the Columbus of the east”.

In 138 BC, at the reign of Emperor Wudi, Zhang Qian was sent to the west of China for an alliance with the Yue-chi people to fight against the Xiongnu. He started his trip from Chang’an（now Xi’an in Shaanxi Province）to Longxi （in Gansu Province）. Along the way, no matter how difficult the environment was, his faith was firm. But unfortunately, Zhang was caught by the Xiongnu people just as he left Han, and was held prisoner for ten years.

Zhang finally managed to escape with some of his men and continued to travel west without any dry food or drinking water. Due to the excellent skill of shooting arrows, they survived by eating some birds and other animals along the way. When Zhang at last reached the Yue-chi in Northern India, he was disappointed to find that they didn’t want to fight against the Xiongnu people. On the return journey, Zhang Qian and his men were again caught. It was not until 125 BC that they returned to Chang’an.

Though Zhang hadn’t finished his mission, he brought back first-hand information on the geography, ethnography, and societies of Central Asia. The paths Zhang Qian explored later served as the highways connecting Europe, the Middle East, Mesopotamia, Central Asia, and East Asia. Commodities, crops, animals, religions, ideas, music, technology, and artifacts have been transported by diplomats, merchants and soldiers along this network of highways, which have, since the 19th century been known as the “Silk Road”. Zhang Qian has been remembered as the great explorer that opened up a new era of cultural exchange between East and West with long-lasting treasure well observable today.

【1】What is the passage mainly about?

A．The importance of the Silk Road.

B．Zhang Qian and the Silk Road.

C．Zhang Qian and Xiongnu people.

D．The paths Zhang Qian explored.

【2】The underlined word “alliance” in Paragraph 2 has the similar meaning to _______.

A．decision

B．exploration

C．agreement

D．war

【3】According to the passage, what is true about the Silk Road?

A．Columbus set the footprints on the ancient silk road.

B．The Silk Road was a highway to Europe in Han Dynasty.

C．Zhang Qian was a pioneer opening up the Silk Road.

D．The Silk Road has the greatest value in Chinese history.

【4】Which words best describe Zhang Qian?

A．Proud and excellent.

B．Careful and confident.

C．Honest and faithful.

D．Brave and strong-minded.

28、   Can memory be improved? Most people hope to have a memory 【1】 helps them succeed in study, work and life. Luckily, hundreds of studies in the past 50 years have already given us a clear answer.

A healthy lifestyle keeps your brain young and memory sharp. First of all, it is necessary to have a healthy diet. Eating more food rich in vitamin B and Vitamin E, such as vegetables and lean meat, helps you have a better memory. Doing exercise can keep your brain alive, too. Proper exercise 【2】 (provide) much needed oxygen for the brain. Running, riding a bike, swimming and even walking two or three times 【3】 week are helpful. Moreover, getting enough sleep is important. The【4】 (healthy) your lifestyle is, the better your memory will become, but do not expect a sudden change - it takes a long time to have a good effect.

Memory skills help you remember things better. Here are two 【5】 (wide) used skills. Chunking is a way of remembering a piece of information by 【6】 (cut) it into smaller ones. For example, to memorize a ten-digit telephone number 2127983630, you can divide the digits 【7】 three groups: first 212, then 798, and lastly 3630. Teaching is a simple way to train our brains to be more effective 【8】 you need to understand before teaching something. Teaching strengthens the understanding.

In fact, memory skills will hardly work if you don’t understand the information. What’s more, only a regular review can make the memory last long. That is why students 【9】(advise) to go over what they have learnt after one day and then after three days, and then use it as regularly as possible.

Human brains are like muscles that need nutrients and exercise to become stronger. If you make a few lifestyle 【10】 (change) and try some memory skills, you can certainly improve your memory.
