24、   In today's world, sleep experts say that for a better night's rest, Americans should turn off their smartphones or iPads before sleeping. Such electronic products make the brain more active, and then influence people's sleep. But according to a latest survey, more than 90% of Americans usually use a computer or some other kinds of electronic products in the hour before bed.

Researchers found that man-made light from some electronic products at night might reduce the levels of the brain chemicals that help sleep. The researchers showed that sitting in the light from tablets clearly reduced the levels of the chemicals which manage our body clocks and play a great role in the sleep cycle.

In the study, the researchers let volunteers read, play games and watch movies on a tablet for different time while measuring how much light their eyes received. They found that sitting for two hours before a bright tablet at night reduced the levels of the chemicals by about 22%.

Studies of students using computers at night have got the similar results. And researchers said that might not only cause sleeplessness, but also increase the risk of obesity(肥胖症), diabetes(糖尿病) and other diseases.

To be on the safe side, the researchers advise us to use computers less before bed, or turn down our screens low.

【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?

25、When I looked at the grade on my math paper, my jaw(下巴) almost dropped to the ground: a big “65” in bright red ink.I had never received such a terrible grade before.

When I got home that afternoon, I lied to my dad.I told him I got 85 and that the report wouldn’t come until the end of the month. Dad smiled.His daughter would never lie about her grade, so he didn’t doubt my words.

A month later, Dad asked me again about the report at the dinner table.He looked right into my eyes and asked for an answer.Having no choice, I told him that I had in fact got just 65 in my math final.I had lied because I didn’t want to let him down.

For a moment, he just looked at me.I would have preferred a telling off than that silence. Finally, Dad said, in a hurt voice, “You have already let me down, with your lie.I am not disappointed at your math score.No one can be perfect all the time.But I am very disappointed in you.If you can’t be honest with your dad, who can you be honest with? It’s much easier to get a better grade than rebuild someone else’s trust(信任) in you.”

Dad’s words touched my heart.I could not forgive myself for having hurt his feelings.I took out the report that I had been hiding for weeks, handed it to him and apologized(道歉) sincerely.I realized that my honesty is not only important to me, but to those around me that truly care about me.

27、Did the wind ever blow your hat away? Did you ever drop your notebook on a windy day? How many important pages did you lose? Wind is moving air. It can pick up light materials and carry them far away.

Wind is a force of erosion(侵蚀). It can carry away small materials such as dust particles(灰尘微粒) and sand particles from the earth’s surface. However, wind itself does not cause much erosion. Most “wind” erosion is done by particles which are carried by wind. Wind is an important natural force of erosion in dry places.

Wind can easily pick up sand particles. When they are blown against rocks, the sand particles hit the rocks in the wind. This happens over and over again. Little by little, the rocks wear down.

The particles which are carried by wind not only cause erosion, they also build up. What is carried away by the wind in one place will drop somewhere else.

When wind slows down, it drops the materials that it is carrying. When sand is dropped, it builds up and becomes dunes(沙丘). Sand dunes are common in deserts and on beaches. Some dunes can be harmful. They can bury(埋) farms and homes, even whole towns.

Wind carries dust particles higher and farther than it carries sand. Thick deposits of wind-blown dust may also build up. The wind-blown dust is called loess(黄土). Loess deposits are found in Washington State and Oregon State.   

Sometimes people plant grasses and trees to try to stop wind erosion. How does this help? The roots of plants help to hold down soil and other particles found on the ground.

【1】The purpose of writing the first paragraph is to ______.

A．introduce the topic

B．make a comparison

C．give background information

D．warn people of the situation

【2】What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?

A．Sand.

B．Wind.

C．Erosion.

D．Dust.

【3】Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A．Wind itself can cause a lot of erosion to rocks.

B．Sand particles and dust particles cannot build up.

C．Planting grasses and trees can help stop wind erosion.

D．Wind can carry sand particles farther than dust particles.

【4】This passage can probably be read in the ______ part of a magazine.

A．Travel

B．Culture

C．Geography

D．Business

28、When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy a holiday present. The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket.

I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a band basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter (收款处) and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face.

Then a surprising thing happened. A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. “You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you,” said the woman. “It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you’ll pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, I know you will feel as good about it as I do now.”

Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could. That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us.

I would like to say “thank you ” to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting blankets and clothes for the homeless people in a fire. And I want to promise her that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on.
