24、   As the novel corona-virus (新型冠状病毒) spreads throughout China and the rest of the world, an important question has yet to be answered: where did the virus come from?

The latest study showed that pangolins (穿山甲) may be an intermediate (中间的) host of virus, according to Xinhua. However, bats are suspected to be the original cause.

"We don't know the source yet, but there's pretty strong evidence that this is a bat origin corona-virus," said Peter Dazsak, president of Eco-Health Alliance, an environmental nonprofit (非营利机构), according to The New York Times. "When you look at the genetic sequence (基因序列) of the virus, and you match it up with every known corona-virus, the closest ones are from bats," Dazsak also told CNN.

So why are bats the source of so many deadly kinds of viruses and why don't they suffer from any symptoms (症状)? Bats are mammals (哺乳动物) that have a long lifespan (寿命) and live with millions of other bats in caves, where they can potentially spread the virus far and wide. As the only lying mammal, their body temperature is high, similar to a fever It's this fact that may contribute to bats' unique immune system (免疫系统) in protecting from the ill effects of viruses.

But are bats truly to blame for the virus or should we be blaming ourselves? It's the fault (错误) of humans for decreasing (减少) the distance between us and virus-carrying bats. Bats are an important animal in our ecosystem (生态系统) when it comes to pollinating (授粉) many fruits such as mangoes, bananas and avocados. We need to allow them to continue pollination and keep them away from our markets and mouths.

【1】What can we learn about the origin of COVID-19?

A.Bats have been discovered to be its original cause.

B.Pangolins are now considered the most likely source.

C.It's confirmed by comparing sources of several different viruses.

D.The virus was found to be genetically similar to those see in bats.

【2】Why don't bats suffer from the corona-virus?

A.Their low body temperature protects them.

B.Bats have a unique immune system.

C.Bats are the only flying mammal to live in groups.

D.Living in caves helps bats fight against viruses.

【3】What is the main point the author makes in the last paragraph?

A.Virus-carrying bats should be killed.

B.Humans should stay away from bats.

C.Bats benefit but also harm our ecosystem.

D.Bats could spread Viruses during pollination.

25、   Smart Phone, Poor Sight

Look around and you’ll see people busy on their smart phones. Smart phones 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 smart phones now and they spend an average of two hours a day using them. There has been a 35% increase in the number of people in the UK who suffer from short-sightedness since smart phones were introduced there in 1997.

Staring (盯) at smart phones screen 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 smart phones 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 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 away from you and then focus on the tip of your nose. Repeat this several times. It should reduce the discomfort in your eyes.

【1】The article is mainly about ________.

A. how to use smart phones

B. the harm that smart phones do to users’ eyes

C. the reason why teenagers get short-sightedness

D. advantages and disadvantages of smart phones

【2】From Paragraph 2，we learn that ________.

A. half of the British people began to use smart phones 22 years ago

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

C. more British people have suffered from short-sightedness since 1997

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

【3】Using smart phones improperly may cause ________.

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

C. smaller pupils D. dry eyes and glaucoma

【4】If you use your eyes for a long time, which of the following is not a good way to relax?

A. Holding your phone at least 30 centimeters away from your eyes.

B. Taking a break every hour.

C. Sleeping for an hour.

26、   Many people believe the glare(刺眼的光) from snow causes snow blindness. Yet, with dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snow blindness when staying in snow light for several hours.

The United States army has now discovered that glare from snow does not cause snow blindness in troops(军队) in a snow-covered country. In fact, a man’s eyes often find nothing to focus on in a broad space of snow-covered land. So his eyes keep moving over the whole landscape in search of something to look at. Finding something, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become tired and the eye muscles ache. Nature makes up for this discomfort by producing more and more fluid (液体) which covers the eyeball. The fluid covers the eyeball more and more until it makes eyes difficult to see clearly, and the result is completely snow blindness, even though for a short time.

Experiments led the army to a simple method of solving this problem. Scouts (侦察员) ahead of the troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark-colored objects ahead which they can look at, too. The men following can then see something. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to look at, stop searching the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snow-blind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a continuous white land is solved.

【1】What is the first paragraph mainly about?

A.The whiteness from snow. B.Snow light and snow blindness

C.The need for dark glasses D.Headaches and watering eyes

【2】Snow-blindness can be avoided___________.

A.by walking ahead and keep looking around

B.by making up for the discomfort of one’s eyes

C.by covering the eyeballs with more and more tears

D.by providing the eyes with something to look at

【3】What is the best title for this passage?

A.Snow-blindness: what it is and whom it influences

B.Snow-blindness: what it is and how nature helps

C.Snow-blindness: how it forms and how to solve it

D.Snow-blindness: how it forms and whom it hurts

【4】Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A.Solving the problem of snow-blindness is important in army

B.Snow-blindness was once a big problem but could be cured easily

C.The glare from snow is considered as the main cause of snow-blindness

D.Armies around the world pay attention to the problems of snow-blindness
