21、You may know about “junk food” like French Fries. But do you know about “junk sleep”?

Recently, a British survey found that electronic products (电子产品) in teenagers’ bedrooms are affecting (影响) their sleep.

The survey was done among 1,000 British kids from 12 to 16. It found that 30 percent of them got just 4 to 7 hours of sleep every day. But doctors say they need 8 to 9 hours.

Almost a quarter of the kids said they fell asleep more than once a week while watching TV, listening to music or using other electronic products.

“This is very worrying,” said Dr.Chris Idzikowski, a British expert (专家). “We call it ‘junk sleep’. It means you don’t get enough sleep and the quality of the sleep is bad, too. If you don’t get good rest, you don’t perform well in school the next day.”

The survey found that 40 percent of the kids felt tired each day, with girls between 13 and 16 feeling the worst. Nearly all the teenagers have a phone, MP5 or TV in their bedroom. And many of them have all three.

【1】This passage is mainly about ________.

A．junk food

B．junk sleep

C．electronic products

D．the importance of sleep

【2】________ of the children in the survey sleep only 4 to 7 hours a day.

A．200

B．300

C．500

D．1,000

A．They are both low in quality (品质)

【4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．Teenagers need 4 to 7 hours of sleep each day.

22、I live on the twelfth floor of a building. One afternoon I was coming home from a friend’s house. It was just after four o’clock. I got quickly into the lift (电梯) and pressed Button (按钮) 12.

The lift started to go up, but very slowly. And then, half way up, it suddenly stopped between two floors. I couldn’t understand it. I pressed all the buttons from 1 to 14. I called for help very loudly. But nobody answered.

Then suddenly the light went out, and I was alone in the dark. I started to cry and beat the walls of the lift. I cried and cried until I had no voice left. Then, I felt hopeless, and pressed all the buttons with my open hands. And all at the same time, there was a bell far away. It rang and rang. It was the fire alarm (火灾警报). I thought the whole building was on fire. I said to God quietly, “Just get me out of here. I’ll never be bad again.”

Just then, I realized (意识到) the lift was moving very slowly. On the ground floor it stopped, and the doors opened. A man was standing there. “How long have you been in the lift? It is good that you pressed the alarm bell. But haven’t you learned to read at your school?” He pointed at a small piece of paper on the wall beside the lift. It said: “Attention: This lift will be stopped for repairs between 4p.m. and 5 p.m. on Thursday March 13.”

23、

Have you ever learned to do something with the help of an Internet search? The answer is likely “Yes”! In fact, you probably learned many things by watching How-to videos.

You may be wondering how such videos can improve your English. Recording yourself, whether on video or audio (音频), is an effective method of self-study. This is especially true if you cannot find someone to practice speaking with. When you record yourself, it helps you identify what you are good at in English and which areas need improvement. As you continue the method of speaking on a recording, you can make the changes you want.

Now, let’s go through the steps in preparing to make your video.

Choose a subject

The first step is to choose a subject that will work well for a short video. Set a goal of not going over six or seven minutes for the video length.

Gather information

Make a list of the steps that you think are important in making or doing the thing you have chosen. You might not know the English words for some of the things you are describing. For those, you can write the words in your own language and then take time to find and practice saying them in English.

Aim for simple instructions

How-to videos are meant to make instructions easy and clear. Taking notes can help organize your steps and decide which to include. Think about which ones to show visually and which ones to be described.

Introduce your subject

A great way to introduce it is to say your name and then say what you are going to show. You can even include a sentence or two about why your skill is good to learn.

【1】What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?

A．Why you should make how-to videos.

B．How to make how-to videos.

C．When to make how-to videos.

D．What to make how-to videos.

【2】How many steps in preparing to make how-to videos are mentioned?

A．Three.

B．Four.

C．Five.

D．Six.

【3】What’s the best title for the passage?

A．Improve your speaking by making how-to videos.

B．Search the Internet for videos in English.

C．Choose right videos in English to improve your speaking.

D．An effective method to study yourself.
