21、The National Academies of Science (NAS) has released a new report looking at more than 800 scientific studies about the effects of electronic cigarettes on users’ health.
The report concludes a range of public health impacts of e-cigarettes. However, it does not conclude whether the overall impact is either positive or negative. The report pays special attention to the impact of e-cigarettes on young adults, who use them at higher rates than adults do. Experienced adult users of e-cigarettes can get just as much nicotine as from regular cigarettes. Nicotine is the addictive drug in tobacco. Most e-cigarettes contain and release a variety of substances in addition to nicotine that could be toxic (有毒的). There is generally far less exposure to these other toxic substances from e-cigarettes than from regular cigarettes. Using e-cigarettes can be addictive and the severity of an addiction to e-cigarettes likely depends on many factors, including the device, the e-liquid used in the device, and how the user operates.
The NAS report found a strong association between youth using e-cigarettes and their likelihood of trying conventional cigarettes. Nicotine is highly addictive at any age, but is especially dangerous for youth. The US Surgeon General has criticized e-cigarette marketers for using strategies that target young people. Many flavors appear to be aimed at teenagers, with some popular names such as Cherry Crush and Cotton Candy. Thus young people buy e-cigarettes more than any other tobacco product.
American Cancer Society experts (ACS) acknowledge NAS report, including: an association between the use of e-cigarettes by youth and the eventual use of regular cigarettes; an evidence that e-cigarettes are not harmless, but are likely to be much less harmful than regular cigarettes and unknown risks of long-term use of e-cigarettes. These are similar to findings conducted by ACS researchers. They conclude that the overall health effects of electronic cigarettes are complex, and there is not yet agreement among the scientific community.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)is using its full authority to regulate all tobacco products. It announced in 2016 that it would begin regulating e-cigarettes. But it later delayed until 2022 the deadline for tobacco companies to apply for approval.

22、 Sometimes，you just can’t help it．Maybe you’re watching a sad movie，or thinking about the friend who moved away．Next thing you know，your eyes are watering，and you have tears running down your cheeks．Why do people cry when they are emotional? What are tears? Scientists are working hard to find the answers to these questions．
Ad Vingerhoets is a professor of psychology at Tilburg University，in the Netherlands．He is one of the few scientists in the world who have studied crying．According to Vingerhoets，there are three types of tears．Basal tears are the first type．They lubricate(润滑)the eyes and act as a protective barrier between the eye and the rest of the World．Next are reflex tears．They wash your eyes clean when something gets in them．Finally，there are emotional tears. “These are released in response to emotional states，”explains Vingerhoets．“Especially when we feel helpless．”
Scientists believe that crying has something to do with how humans developed and learned to depend on each other．“Humans are very complex social creatures，”says Lauren Bylsma，a professor at the University of Pittsburgh，in Pennsylvania．“It seems that tears serve to arouse help and support from others，’’She says．“Another reason we weep is that humans have the longest developmental period of almost any animal．It takes a long time to grow up．”
Vingerhoets agrees．“I think that the reason why humans shed tears(流眼泪)has something to do with our childhood，”he says．“That’s the time when we are stir dependent on adults for love and protection and care．The major advantage of emotional tears is that you can target them at a specific person．”Vingerhoets says this ability to target someone could have come in hand in prehistoric times，when humans were living among dangerous animals．Crying could attract predators(捕食者)．Tears were a safer way to get attention．In this case，it is better to use a silent signal to ask for help，”he says．
Vingerhoets and Bylsma do frequent studies to better understand why humans cry．According to Byhma，there is still much more to discover．“It’s surprising，”she says，“how much we still don’t know．”
【1】Which of the following is reflex tears?
A．Tears when eyes are dry．
B．Tears moved by a story．

B．It helps humans attract predators.
C．It helps arouse attention．
D．It helps people to be independent．
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A．Emotional tears are better than reflex tears．
B．Basal tears are a type of protective barrier．
C．Tears helped frighten predators away．
D．It’s easy to understand why humans cry．
【4】What’s the main idea of this passage?
A．Why people shed tears． B．When people shed tears．

23、AirTag, a small Bluetooth-and-GPS-enabled device, was released by Apple in April 2021. This small device aimed at making our lives easier was originally designed to end the trouble of losing keys, wallets or other little objects. However, it may become the “perfect” tracking tool if in the wrong hands. My ex-husband was an early adopter of the AirTag. He and I had a falling out, leading to a divorce battle. In order to win custody battle, he used the little device to track me.
As a tech giant, the Apple company brought great convenience to the users, including me. I had never given a thought to tracking via AirTag until it happened to me. So I started scanning stories about AirTag. I was surprised to find that I was not alone. There were so many people tracked by these seemingly innocent electronic tags in their daily life. AirTag which was originally launched for a better life should have such a dark side in the wrong hands.
People have found that the digital device has the potential for abuse. What matters is how to avoid its danger. Apple has released updates to the AirTag’s functionality very quickly since they hit the market. Meanwhile, Apple has also improved its customer service to deal with the bugs of this kind. If you find an unwanted AirTag following you, don’t panic. Just disable it. You can follow the prompts on your Apple device to learn more about disabling the device. Once you’ve completed the above step, the tag’s original owner can’t keep track of you any more.
Almost every digital technology creates security issues. Nobody can go and live in a cave to remain unaffected. While enjoying its convenience, you need to be aware of the risks it poses, and know how to deal with them. Prevention is more effective in security issues than fixes. After all, a stitch in time saves nine.
【1】What is the original function of AirTag?
A．To track one’s location secretly.
B．To help find one’s easily lost items.
C．To locate one’s phone accurately.
D．To ensure the safety of one’s phone.

24、 Recently Stiles aged 17 took her 3-year-old brother, James, to her high school. A family emergency prevented her parents from being able to pick up James. So they asked Stiles to step in.
