26、Students perform less well in final exams if smartphones are allowed in class, for non-academic (非学业的) purposes in lectures, a new study in Educational Psychology finds. Students who don’t use smartphones themselves but attend lectures where their use is acceptable also do worse, suggesting that smartphone use damages the group learning environment.
Researchers from Rutgers University in the US performed an in-class experiment to test whether dividing attention between smartphones and the lecturer during the class affected students’ performance in within-lecture tests and a final exam. 118 students at Rutgers University took part in the experiment during one term of their course. Smartphones were not allowed in half of the lectures and allowed in the other half. When smartphones were allowed, students were asked to record whether they had used them for non-academic purposes during the lecture.
The study found that having a smartphone didn’t lower students’ scores in comprehension tests within lectures, but it did lower scores in the final exam by at least 5%, or half a grade. This finding shows for the first time that the main effect of divided attention in the classroom is on the length of time in keeping memory, with fewer things of a study task later remembered. In addition, when the use of smartphones was allowed in class, performance was also poorer for students who did not use them as well as for those who did.
The study’s lead author, Professor Arnold Glass, added: “These findings should alarm students and teachers that dividing attention is having a not obvious but harmful effect that is damaging their exam performance and final grade. To help manage the use of smartphones in the classroom, teachers should explain to students the alarming effect—not only for themselves, but for the whole class.”
This is the first-ever study in an actual classroom showing a relationship between losing attention from smartphones and exam performance. However, more researches are required to see how students are affected by using smartphones after school.
【1】What is the purpose of paragraph 1?
A．To present the main findings of the experiment.
B．To explain how the experiment was carried out.
C．To give details about the result of the experiment.
D．To suggest what should be done for teachers and students.
【2】We know from the experiment that having a smartphone in class ________.
A．had no bad effect if students do not use them
B．caused an average 5% drop in students’ scores
C．made it harder for students to keep things in mind
D．had a bad effect on students’ performance in all tests
【3】What’s Professor Glass’ attitude towards using smartphones in class?
A．He was against it.
B．He was in favor of it.
C．He cared little about it.
D．He doubted the findings.
【4】What is the research team likely to do next?
A．To find out ways to improve students’ memory.
B．To call on schools to ban smartphones completely.

27、 You'll need to take a deep breath before hearing this news. An astonishing 93% of kids around the world live in environments with air pollution levels that are damaging their health, according to a new report by WHO.
Air pollution is to blame for the deaths of 543,000 kids under 5 in 2016, with more than one in four deaths of children under five years old being related to environmental issues. Exposure (暴露)to air pollution can damage the health of kids in a variety of ways, either causing or being associated with everything from low birth weight to childhood obesity and so on.
"The large toll of disease and death revealed (揭示)by these new data should result in an urgent call to action for the global community especially for those in the health department WHO stated. “ Strong action to reduce exposure to air pollution offers an opportunity to protect the health of children. " The report stressed that health experts should communicate with families , communities and policy-makers about the serious risks of air pollution exposure. " Although more researches into how air pollution affects children's health will continue to be valuable, there is already evidence to justify strong, swift action to prevent the damage it clearly produces," WHO added.
Disease caused by dirty air is more common in low-and-middle in come countries, especially those in Africa, South-East Asia, and Western Pacific regions. Poor countries in these areas have the highest levels of exposure to household air pollution due to the use of polluting fuels and technologies for basic needs like cooking, heating and lighting.

28、 As you slowly rid your diet of junk food and sweets, you'll notice a change: you actually start to like those healthy foods that you once refused. And as you start fueling your body with nutrients and noticing how much better you feel, there's a good chance you'll lose weight, too. Here's how your new healthy eating habits are helping you drop pounds.
Drinking water
Finally you decided to change those Diet Cokes for water? It's a good decision: drinking more water helps keep your skin and other cells healthy and functioning properly, and drinking enough water keeps you from feeling lethargic(没精打采)and tired. Your new water habit is great for your waistline as well: drinking water helps prevent overeating.
Eat more fruits and vegetables
Your new weekend's to-do list that includes a trip to the farmers' market to stock(贮备)up on vegetables for the week isn't just helping you eat more disease-fighting nutrients; loading up on produce is a smart weight-loss strategy. Fruits and vegetables are lowcal high-fiber(低卡高纤维) food to stay satisfied and feel full longer.
Cooking at home
Healthy eating means cooking at home more since you're able to see what exactly is going into your food and control the amount of salt, sugar, and fat in it. Not only does this ensure you're eating the nutrients you need, but you’ll also save major calories from giving up the large buttery portions （比例）found in many restaurants.
