25、   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?

A.Americans don't get enough sleep. B.Electronic products are very popular.

C.The brain becomes more active at night. D.Sleep experts never use smartphones.

【2】How many electronic products influence people's sleep?

A.By making our brains more tired. B.By making our bodies weak.

27、Believe it or not, humans have been in debt(负债) to the Earth Overshoot Day this month. The Earth Overshoot Day fell on August 8th. As of that day, we have used as much from nature in 2016 as our planet can provide in a whole year. In other words, we have run out of this year’s “ecological budget”, and for the rest of the year we’ll be eating into our “savings”.

Global Footprint Network has been watching the Earth Overshoot Day since 1971. This year, the day came five days earlier than it did last year (Aug. 13th), 11 days earlier that the year before (Aug, 19th) and is the earliest date yet.

Global Footprint Network said that humans now use 1.6 Earths worth of crops, forest, livestock, energy and other resources (资源) every year. By the 2030s we will be using more than two Earth’s worth of resources every year. The situation is more and more serious and the world needs to find better balance in how to use the Earth’s resources.

Overshoot Day is a red light warning of trouble ahead. “That is, we’re using up what our planet does for us, so year after year, there is less for us to use,” Stuart Pimm, an American professor of ecology, explained. “Less forest, fewer fish in the ocean, less productive land.” Two of the main causes are over-population and pollution.

Small actions make a big difference and all of us play an important role in creating  a better world where we live. Even a few simple changes around our home can reduce the resource that we waste, from taking a shower instead of a bath, to using our own reusable bags at the store instead of ones that are made of plastics. In this way we can reduce waste and pollution. Let’s start today to live greener in no time.

【1】What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?

A. The Earth Overshoot Day is coming earlier and earlier.

B. The Earth Overshoot Day falls on Aug. 19th.

C. Humans will have to spend more money for the rest of the year.

D. Humans have used as many resources this year as we did last year.

【2】According to the Global Footprint Network, which of the following is true?

A. By the 2030s there will be no resources left on Earth.

B. Humans need to find better ways to use resources properly.

C. Humans use more than 1.6 Earths worth of resources every year.

D. Aug. 13th is the earliest date of the Earth Overshoot Day since 1971.

【3】Which one can’t help us reduce the resource that we waste?

A. take a shower. B. take a bath.

C. use the reusable bags. D. recycle the waste water.

【4】What can be the best title for the passage?

A. Living a Saving life B. Aug. 8th—an Important Day

C. Small Actions make a Big Difference D. Eating up Our Planet

28、   Chinese writing is one of the world’s greatest writing systems. It is more widely in use than alphabetic(字母的) writing systems. More than half of the world’s books are written in Chinese, i【1】historical writing and novels, along with writing on government and law.

At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based l【2】. It dates back several thousand years to the use of animals bones and shells on w【3】symbols were carved(刻) by ancient Chinese people. Some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in t【4】hanzi.

By the Shang Dynasty, these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system d【5】into different forms, as it was a time when people were divided geographically, leading to different dialects(方言) and characters. This, however, c【6】 under Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty.

Emperor Qinshihuang united(统一) the seven major states into one country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one direction. That writing system was of great i【7】 in uniting the Chinese people and culture. Even today, no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak, they can all still communicate in w【8】. Written Chinese has also become an important method to connect China’s present with its p【9】. People in modern times can read the classic works which were written by Chinese in ancient times.

Today, Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture. As China plays a great role in the world, an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate(欣赏) China’s culture t【10】this amazing language.
