26、 Computer technology has changed the way we deal with the world, from allowing us to communicate with others more easily to entertaining us with video chatting. Newer generations are growing up with this technology, but we should know that the computer is a double-edged sword. It does have its benefits, primarily in education and gaining information, but it can also be harmful to children during a very important time of growth. Too much computer use can affect children's physical and mental health as well as social skills.
Using the computer is an activity much like watching television. You don't get very much exercise, simply sitting down. Computers cause other health problems as well. Too much use of a keyboard and a mouse can cause hand injuries, back problems and so on. At a time when children are growing physically, it's especially important to note the benefits of physical activity.
Too much computer use can affect a child's attention and focus（专注度）. Though some computer games have been shown to help a child develop certain cognitive（认知的）skills, there are still many games and other forms of computer entertainment doing nothing to develop a child's mind. Addiction（上瘾）to programs, games and videos makes it more difficult for children to focus on tasks for a long period of time, and this can affect a student's studies and grades. In more extreme cases, children with computer addiction will fail their classes completely. Computer addiction is a very troublesome thing, and once it starts, it's very difficult to stop.
Computer use is also an activity which most children enjoying doing alone, and it can go hand in hand with addiction. Children who spend more time on the computer than other people in general, may fail to develop necessary social skills. Social skills are important not only for communicating with others, but for developing self-respect and working in social environments, both of which are very important for children's growth.
【1】Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word in Paragraph 2?
A.Know about. B.Set down.
C.Pick out. D.Depend on.
【2】In the author's opinion, kids’ too much computer use can lead to .
A.physical violence B.cognitive disorder
C.shortage of entertainment D.poor performance in study
【3】Children with computer addiction may get unsocial because .
A.they ignore social environments
B.they seldom communicate with others
C.they think social skills unnecessary
D.they find it hard to develop self-respect
【4】What is the real concern of the author?
A.Children's physical growth.
B.Children’s learning situation.
C.The influence of the computer on children.
D.The importance of computer technology to children.
27、 Most maps show places you can visit and how to get there．Most maps, however, were not made by astronomers．At a recent meeting in Texas, three teams of these scientists presented new maps to show where dark matter was．
Dark matter neither produces nor reflects light, which means it's invisible (看不见) to human eyes and to most scientific instruments．That makes it a challenge to measure and study．What makes the matter more upset: Scientific measurements show that the universe holds about five times．as much dark matter as ordinary matter．Making up the known part of the universe, ordinary matter includes you, your dog, Earth, the sun, stars and planets．
Scientists find dark matter in the same way, they discover other things we can't see-by observing how the invisible matter affects things we can see．We can't see wind, for example, but we can feel a gentle wind or watch a windmill(风车) turning on a hill．Dark matter doesn't turn windmills, but it does have gravity．Like ordinary matter, dark matter holds everything around it firmly with gravity．Dark matter's gravity holds galaxies (星系) together and bends rays of light as they move past．
To make the new maps, astronomers trained powerful telescopes to watch for bending light arriving from distant galaxies．These telescopes recorded light that came from galaxies billions of light-years away．By studying how the light changed as it traveled through space, the astronomers could work out the location and shape of dark matter groups．
One of the new maps shows dark matter is more than 600 times as large as a full moon．The other covers an area more than a thousand times as large．But that's just the beginning: The astronomers want to carry on further studies to better understand the dark matter．
【1】We can learn from the passage that_____________．
A．most maps show the location of dark matter．
B．human eyes can’t see dark matter directly
C．galaxies are usually made of dark matter
D．dark matter is as much as ordinary matter
【2】What does the underlined word “gravity” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Pull．
B．Shape．
C．Light．
D．Wind．
【3】In paragraph 3 the writer explains the way to locate dark matter by_____________．
A．providing numbers
B．listing facts
C．making a comparison
D．offering a quote
【4】What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Ordinary matter makes up the known part of the space．
B．Scientists have found ways to draw maps of dark matter．
C．Dark matter is studied with the help of powerful telescopes．
D．Scientists put forward the theory of dark matter for the first time．
28、 During a job interview, your body language will have already given people their first impression of you before a word has even been spoken. The interviewers will not only pay attention to what you say during the interview, but also to how you say it!【1】
【2】 Body language shows your serious attitude toward that interview. Then after the introduction you will usually be directed to take a seat. Choose a place from where you can clearly see all the interviewers.
During a job interview, try to keep a posture (姿势) that shows you are interested and relaxed. Sit up straight in your chair. What to do with your hands? 【3】 From these positions it’s also easy to support your words with hand gestures.
Then it is important to look at all the interviewers. When one of them explains something or asks a question, keep looking at this person. 【4】 When answering, you should look first at the person who asked the question and take turns to look at other interviewers as well.
All in all, body language will decide first if it “clicks”, and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds. Everybody uses body language, but it takes place mostly at a subconscious (潜意识的) level. 【5】
A.Being more aware of your body language can increase your chances of getting the job.
B.This shows that you are listening.
C.Always wear a smile from the beginning of the interview.
D.It is better to put them on your lap or on the armrests of your chair.
E.It is important to look directly into the eyes of interviewers.
F.Here are some advice on your body language during a job interview.
G.Remember to arrive in time for a job interview.
29、
We always enjoy pointing out some unusual holidays to add to your calendar. Now jot these down, learn something new and have fun!
Random Acts of Kindness Day （February 17）
If you have encountered a homeless person and given money, that's a random act of kindness. The idea of this day is to get lots of people doing something kind for someone they don't know with no expectation of getting anything in return. This concept is trickier with social distancing but even a big smile and a “hi!’’ from across the street qualifies.
I Forgot Day （July 2）
Did you forget to call Grandma on her birthday or return that soccer ball you borrowed from a friend three months ago? Today is a good day to clean the slate. Make a list of things you meant to do but forgot. Work through the list, and don't get discouraged if you don't accomplish everything in one day. Just remember to keep the list in a place where you'll see it. Otherwise, you know what will happen.
DOGust First （August 1）
If your family is one of the many that adopted dogs from animal shelters last year, you may not know, for example, Luna or Cooper's actual birthday. The North Shore Animal League thought of that problem in 2008 and picked today as the birthday of all shelter dogs. Give your pup extra love today, and consider what you can do to help other sheller dogs.
World Vegetarian Day （October 1）
It’s not hard to go without meat for one day, but how about one month? The North American Vegetarian Society asks people to help reduce greenhouse gases by pledging to cat no meat, fish or fowl （basically chicken or turkey） in October. The pledge is tricky for kids to make on their own because Mom and Dad are usually in charge of preparing meals. Ask them if you can participate or if the whole family could try it. You will probably be surprised about how many tasty meals are meatless.
【1】Which can be described as a random act of kindness?
A．John accepted a new job for a better salary.
B．Mr. Robert told a story in the lecture today.
C．The Smiths drove their children to school.
D．Sally said “hello” to a stranger in the lift.
【2】What does the author mean by the last sentence in “I Forgot Day”?
A．You may forget your to-do list.
