24、 Playing video games can be a fun way to relax. It is a way to spend time with friends in schools. Teachers use video games like Minecraft to encourage teamwork. But for some players, gaming is an unhealthy habit. At night, they are glued to a screen. Their schoolwork becomes worse. The video-game world seems like a friendly place. It seems friendlier than the real world.
Mental health experts have taken notice. In June, the World Health Organization (WHO) added gaming disorder to its list of diseases and health conditions. A person may have the disorder if gaming has done harm to his or her relationships with family and friends. Gaming may also disrupt his or her everyday activities.
Not all experts agree with WHO . They don’t think too much gaming should be called a disorder. They say people hooked on(对……入了迷) video games may have other mental health problems. These should be treated first.
Others think WHO made the right call .Clifford Sussman, who has worked with kids as young as 12, says they often have feelings of anxiety(焦虑). They feel lonely. They get angry when a parent stops them from playing games.
Playing video games excites the brain’s reward center. After a while, the brain becomes numb(麻木) to pleasure. You feel bored without a controller in your hand. So you play even more.
Sussman advises you should take at least a one-hour break after every hour of play. The brain need time to return to a normal condition. Young gamers who think they might have a problem should ask an adult for help. Sussman suggests you first answer a simple question: “Are you in control, or is the game in control?”
【1】The underlined word "disrupt" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.
A.be valuable to B.have a bad influence on
C.have nothing to do with D.change in some way.
【2】Which of the following is Not Clifford Sussman’s opinion?
A.Too much gaming shouldn’t be called a disorder. B.Parents are helped to young gamers.
C.A break is necessary during the long video games. D.Kids hooked on video games age angry easily.
【3】The fifth paragraph is mainly about ________.
A.what excites the brain’s reward center B.how the brain becomes numb to video games
C.what makes you hook on video games D.how you feel without playing video games
【4】When the gamers are stopped from playing games they like very much, the gamers will be ________.
A.anxiety B.lonely C.angry D.happy
【5】Why do some people hook on game-playing?
A.When they play the game, they are free from working./
B.When they play the game, the game excites their brain’s reward center.
C.When they play the game for a while, they will become numb to trouble.
D.When they don’t have a controller in hand, they will feel relaxed.

26、We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don't do a very good job. This article gives some suggestions on how to give an effective speech.
So, you have to give a speech and you're fearful. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over (结结巴巴地说)words, you talk too long and you bore your audience. Later you think,“ Thank goodness, it's over. I'm just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”
Cheer up! It doesn't have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion(场合)? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible and use pictures, charts and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Don't talk over their heads so that they can understand what you say. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.
If you follow these simple steps, you'll see that you don't have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You're not sure yet. Give it a try and see what happens.

Usually, you don’t find the same words in different languages. But there is an exception for the word “OK”!
The word OK first appeared in the Boston Morning Post on March 23, 1839.
It was an abbreviation of the phrase “oll Korrect”, an incorrect s【1】 of “all correct”. Although it began as a joke, people later u【2】 the phrase on documents(文件) or through telegraphs(电报) to say that all was well.
This year, OK celebrated its 179th b【3】. We use this expression countless times every day. “How about two o’clock? OK?” “OK then.” The word OK is e【4】 to say, write and understand.
Besides, it is more neutral(中立的) than many words. Allen Metcalf, American author of OK : The Improbable story of America’s Greatest Word, told The Times, “What OK provided that other words did not was neutrality, a way to express agreement w【5】 having to offer an opinion.” For example, if someone asks you to go for a walk after lunch, you can s【6】 answer “OK”. There you go — no extra opinions.
OK can be spelled in different ways: okay or O.K. they are all p【7】 the same. But “OK” is the most widely accepted spelling and is often used in writing. Some people, however, like the spelling “okay” b【8】 it looks more like a word.
Sometimes, people also say short forms of OK like “K”. For example, someone might say, “I’m just going to the supermarket, but I’ll be b【9】 in 10 minutes.” You could reply with “K”.
OK is so useful that it’s said worldwide. You may not know the l【10】 of someone you’re talking with, but saying “OK” with gestures(手势) can help you communicate.

Would you say yes to your teacher?” She gave me a hug and asked me to think about it. I was puzzled. The question kept me_______ for the rest of the night. I had said “yes” but for the first time, I realized the difficult decisions adults had to make.
For almost four years, my mother would call us from Brazil every day.
Every evening I’d anxiously wait for the phone to ring and then tell her every detail of my day. A phone call, however, could never replace her_______ and it was difficult not to feel lonely at times.
During my fourth-grade Christmas break, we flew to Rio to visit her.
Looking at her large_______ apartment, I realized how lonely my mother must have been in Brazil herself. It was then that I started to appreciate the tough choices she had to make on balancing family and work._____ difficult decisions, she used to tell me, you wouldn’t know whether you make the right choice, but you could always make the best out of the situation, with passion and a positive attitude.
Back home, I reminded myself that what my mother could do, I could, too. If she______ to live in Rio all by herself, I, too, could learn to be______ . I learn how to take care of myself and set high but achievable goals.
