24、Smartphones, poor sight

Look around and you’ll see people busy on their smartphones. Smartphones do make our lives easier . But have you ever thought about what they mean to your eyes?

According to a study, half of British people own smartphones and they spend an average (平均) of two hours a day using them. There has been a 35% increase in the number of people in the UK who suffer from shortsightedness（近视）since smartphones were introduced there in 1997.

Staring（盯）at smartphones for long time gives you dry eyes. When looking at something in the distance, your eyes automatically blink（自动眨眼）a certain number of times. However, when you look at things closer to your face, the blinking slows down. This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort in your eyes. Another bad habit is using smartphones in dark rooms before going to sleep. If you look at a bright screen while your pupils（瞳孔）become larger, too much light enters your eyes. This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma（青光眼）.

While you’re probably not going to stop using to your smart phone, there are a few things you can do to protect your eyes. Hold your phone at least 30 centimeters away from your eyes when using it. Take a break every hour and try the following: look at something at least five meters from you and then focus on the tip of your nose. Repeat this several times. It should reduce the discomfort in your eyes.

【1】From Paragraph 2, we learn that _______.

A. most of the British people began to use smartphones 19 years ago

B. each of the British people spends two hours a day on smartphones

C. all British people have suffered from shortsightedness since 1997

D. the number of British people who own smartphones increases by 35%

【2】 According to Paragraph 3, using smartphones improperly may cause _______.

A. too many blinks   B. more tears in the eyes

C. larger pupils   D. dry eyes and glaucoma

【3】Which of the following is suggested by the writer ?

A. Hold the phone at least half a meter away from the eyes.

B. Don’t use the phone for over an hour without a break.

C. Turn off your phone for a couple of hours every day.

D. Look at something green far away for several minutes.

25、   For his seventh birthday, Rashard was given a gift that would define his life. His father took him to a music store and told Rashard he could pick out any instrument he wanted. There was just one requirement. Rashard would have to promise he would learn to play.

To that point, Rashard had not had much interest in music. Rashard was far more interested  in playing video games or occasionally baseball with his friends. He had never once thought about playing an instrument. It was hard for him to pick one on his birthday.

Not knowing where to start, Rashard wandered the music store. In the front of the store, he saw all the pianos. Though Rashard’s family did not live in poverty, he knew they were also not rich. He knew that a piano was too expensive, so he walked past the piano room. Next, he found a wall filled with brass instruments. There was a tuba, a saxophone, a trumpet, and something he could not tell. The salesman said it was a French horn. Rashard was not interested in any of those either, because he did not want to put his mouth on anything. He moved on to the large room filled with acoustic guitars, electric guitars, and basses. The salesman invited him to try out one of the guitars, but the only problem was that Rashard’s hands were too small to fit around the neck of the instrument!

Realizing he would not be able to play a guitar, Rashard moved into the next room of the music store. There, he found stringed instruments other than guitars. He picked up a violin, and he realized it was the perfect size for his small hands!

Rashard kept his promise to his dad. He took lessons at the very same store he bought the violin, and he continues to play it as an adult.

Though Rashard has since bought nicer violins, he always remembered the first one his  father bought for him. It was easily the most important gift Rashard ever received. As his father put it, “The gift of music is better than any video game you wanted when you were seven.”

【1】Which of the following words or phrases would best introduce the last sentence in paragraph2:“It was hard for him to pick one on his birthday.”?

A.Besides B.However C.Because of this D.Even so

【2】Based on its use in paragraph 3, the underlined word poverty means being short of________.

A.patience B.wisdom C.money D.talent

【3】Rashard’s decision to take the violin was most strongly influenced by ________ .

A.the price of the violin B.the size of the violin

C.the difficulty of playing the violin D.the sound the violin made

【4】Rashard saw each of the following instruments at the music store EXCEPT________ .

A.a guitar B.a viola C.a tuba D.a piano

【5】It can be inferred from the passage that Rashard’s father________ .

A.played the violin B.did not like video games C.was wealthy D.valued music

26、"It looks so good on you," said my friend. I was trying on a bathing suit. Then the topic of conversation turned to going on a diet(节食).

I wanted to become pretty and thin. So I decided to stick to the diet. I didn't eat my lunch. Some people asked me where my lunch was. I lied to them and made up excuses.

I did the same with breakfast. I tricked(欺骗) my dad into thinking that I ate my bread, but I fed it to the cat. My weight dropped fast, but when I looked at myself in the mirror, I still thought I was not thin enough.

Finally, dark circles formed under my eyes. I wore thick clothing in hot weather, but I was still cold. That didn't matter. I still needed to be thinner.

About a month after I bought the bathing suit, I tried it on again, and it fell right off me. My mother told me to look in the mirror. I could see my eye sockets(眼窝). That was the day I realized how skinny I was.

I went to see a doctor. My total weight loss was about twenty-five pounds in one month. It took one year for my body to start working normally again.

Sometimes I want to go back to being thin, but I will never do what I did again. It's not worth it. Please don't go on a diet when you're young. You will regret it. Don't judge and compare yourself with others. Try to love yourself for who you are, not for what you look like.

【1】After trying on , the writer decided to go on a diet.

27、

English book Animal Farm (1945) tells a story about farm animals. They are fed up with (受够了) Mr Jones, the farmer. He treats them badly, so they decide to kick him off the farm and run the farm themselves.

One day an old pig called Old Major gathers the animals around him. He tells them that all animals should stand together. He says they should take over the farm. They say that all animals are equal.

After they get rid of (摆脱) Mr Jones, two pigs become the leaders of Animal Farm. One pig called Snowball is a great speaker. He has big ideas for Animal Farm. The other leader is a pig called Napoleon. Napoleon is a crafty (狡猾的) animal. He brings together supporters by offering them advantages.

Napoleon makes a war against Snowball and kicks him away from the farm. He turns Snowball into a big enemy. He says that Snowball is working with Farmer Jones and other farmers to do harm to Animal Farm.
