22、There’s a lot of anxiety around how young people, particularly teenagers, use the Internet but new research by Talk Talk suggests some of these fears may be overblown.
In a recent study, 2,000 young people aged 13—16 and the parents of the same teenagers, were interviewed about their attitudes to technology and loneliness.
The teens were mainly optimistic about technology and its uses. 51 percent said that during times when they felt lonely, tech provided a solution to their loneliness, enabling them to make new friends, receive support and advice, as well as allowing them to read positive comments online. However, social media was considered as cause for feeling lonely by 12 percent of teens, who said they felt lonely because they didn’t have many friends on social media.
When it comes to the parents, on the other hand there is an education gap between worrying about the Internet, and knowing what to do about it. For example, 70 percent of parents worry about their teens using the Internet, and knowing what to do about it. For example, 70 percent of parents worry about their teens using the Internet, but 65 percent said they did not limit the hours their teen spends using social media and tech, and 70 percent reported they don’t use parent protection controls and software. Around 37 percent said they feel ill-equipped or unsure about how to manage their teens online.
It seems like when it comes to the Internet, the main problem is with the parents not understanding what they’re doing. Research by Oxford University academics found there was little evidence linking screen time to mental health problems in teenagers. The study used a mixture of self-reporting techniques as well as time-use diaries.
We’re still learning about how things like social media affect our health and well being, but at least this research shows that the Generation Z (those born between 1996-2010) may have more of a hold on tech and its effects than their parents do.
【1】What did the research by Talk Talk find?
A．More teens think tech helps rid loneliness.
B．Most parents limit their children’s use of the Internet.
C．Social media is destroying the parent-child relationship.
D．Teens prefer to communicate with their net friends rather than their parents.
【2】How did most parents respond to their teens’ tech use?
A．They reported it to teachers.
B．They had no idea how to solve it.
C．They felt unsure if it was really worrying.
D．They began to control their teens screen time.
【3】What is implied in the last paragraph?
A．Less social media, better health.
B．Social media is the main cause of loneliness.
C．Social media shouldn’t be allowed in high schools.
D．Don’t worry too much about teenagers’ use of tech.
【4】The author develops the text mainly by ______.
A．giving typical examples.
B．providing research results.
C．stating different arguments.
D．presenting a cause and its effects.
23、The plants grown by Wageningen University researchers in Mars-like soil back in March have been analyzed and the results are excellent: at least four of the crops do not contain harmful heavy metal levels and are perfectly safe to eat, the University researchers report.
If you’ve seen The Martian, you can remember how much Matt Damon got done living off of his poo-powered crop of potatoes. It just goes to show how important it is for a long-term colony to be able to grow their own food locally. We’ve taken one step closer to that goal in March, when Netherlands’ Wageningen University reported that they’ve managed to grow ten different crops in Mars-like soil.
However, growing food doesn’t do us much good if eating it kills us, and researchers were worried that these crops contained dangerous heavy metals like lead or cadmium(镉) from the martian soil. But future colonists are delighted, as lab analysis of the crops determined that at least four of them are safe to eat.
Led by ecologist Wieger Wamelink, the team tested radishes, tomatoes, rye, and peas. They looked at cadmium, lead, aluminium(铝), nickel(镍), copper, chrome(铬), iron, arsenic(砷), manganese(锰), and zinc(锌) contents in the plants, and didn’t find any in dangerous levels. In fact, some of these vegetables have lower levels of heavy metals than those grown in regular potting soil. The plants were also tested for vitamins, alkaloids(生物碱), and flavonoids(类黄酮), with good results. While there are six more crops to test, Wamelink himself said that the results up to now are “very promising.”
“Growing food locally is especially important to our mission of permanent settlement, as we have to ensure sustainable food production on Mars. The results of Dr. Wamelink and his team at Wageningen University & Research are significant progress towards that goal,” said Mars One co-founder and CEO Bas Lansdorp in a press release.
A crowdfunding campaign is underway (and will be until the end of August) to fund the test of the remaining crops, potatoes included. If all the crops test out safe, with concentrations of heavy metal the FDA and the Dutch Food Agency consider as safe, Wamelink’s team will host a “Martian dinner” at the Wageningen greenhouse.
But I’ve seen the movie. Stay clear of the potatoes.
【1】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Four crops grown in martian soil have been tested safe to eat, with no heavy metals in.
B. The ability to grow food locally can ensure the permanent stay on Mars.
C. The team temporarily lack money to test the remaining six crops.
D. A “Martian dinner” will be hosted after all the remaining crops have been tested.
【2】What is Bas Lansdorp’s attitude towards the research results?
A. Neutral. B. Indifferent. C. Unfavorable. D. Praiseful.
【3】The author writes the passage in order to _________.
A. prove that it is practical to grow crops on Mars in the future
B. show crops grown in martian soil are safe for people to eat
C. point out the importance of growing food locally for long-term settlement
D. report the recent research findings of the possibility of growing food on Mars
24、 Everybody, at some point in their lives, has experienced failure. It could be something as simple as not getting the job you wanted, or getting fewer marks even after hard work. But what makes you is not your failure, but how you get back up after being hit.
Once, a young school boy was caught in a fire accident in his school and was assumed that he would not live. His mother was told that he was sure to die, for the terrible fire had destroyed the lower half of his body. Even if he were to survive, he would be lame throughout his life.
But the brave boy did not want to die nor did he want to be lame. Much to the amazement of the doctor, he did survive. But unfortunately from his waist down, he had no motor ability. His thin legs just hung there, lifeless. Eventually he left the hospital. But his determination to walk was unshakable. At home, when he was not in bed, he had to stay in a wheelchair. One day, he threw himself from the chair and pulled himself across the grass, dragging his legs behind him. He reached the fence, raised himself up and then began dragging himself along the fence, firmly determined. He did this every day, with faith in himself that he would be able to walk unaided. With his iron determination, he did develop the ability to stand up, then to walk on and off, then to walk by himself and then to run.
He began to walk to school, and then run to school, to run for the joy of running. Later in college he was on the track team.
In February 1934, in New York City’s Madison Square Garden, this young man who was not expected to survive, who would surely never walk, who could never hope to run — this determined young man, Dr. Glenn Cunningham, ran the world’s fastest mile.
A good example of the power of positive(积极的) thinking and faith in oneself, Glenn Cunningham continues to be an inspiration for many, and his story, a brilliant evidence to how one can bounce back even when all difficulties are piled against one, to the degree that death seemed the preferable choice.
【1】What was the doctor’s opinion about Glenn?
A.There was a little chance that Glenn could survive.
B.Great determination could make a difference to Glenn.
C.Glenn was able to walk with his own great effort
D.Glenn could live a normal life with the upper half of his body.
【2】The underlined word “unaided” means ________.
A.for himself B.without help
C.with disability D.without hesitation
【3】What do we know about Glenn?
A.Glenn took recovery exercise in hospital.
B.Glenn inspired people with his moving story.
C.Glenn won the first place in Marathon.
D.Glenn organized a track team in college.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Stand up after failure B.Strengthen determination
C.Go after dreams D.Face difficulty bravely
