However, falling asleep isn’t as easy as expected. What’s wrong? Here is a study that may tell you the answer. According to a new study, your phone may be the main problem. Researchers asked 85 kids aged 11 to 14 to wear body cameras for a week, starting from three hours before bedtime. A second camera was placed in their bedrooms to monitor their phone use in bed. The kids also wore a device (设备) to record their sleep. Researchers found that 99% of the kids used their phones in the two hours before bed, over half used their phones while in bed, and about a third used them after trying to sleep. The results showed that screen time in bed put off kids’ sleep by about half an hour and cut down on their total sleep time. The influence (影响) was larger when they played games or used more than one screen. “While the science guidebooks advise that no screen time in an hour or two before bed, keeping phones out of the bedroom might help you get a better night’s sleep,” said the lead researcher, Bradley Brosnan. Now from the meaningful study, teenagers should come to know that your phone can make it difficult for you to fall asleep, so why don’t you put down your phone before going to bed or keep away from it so that you can get a sound sleep? It’s really a must for wise kids today. 3. What does the underlined word “monitor” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. 远离 B. 保管 C. 监视 4. How many of the kids used their phones while in bed? A. Less than 30%. B. More than 50%. C. Exactly 99%. 5. What’s Bradley Brosnan’s advice for a better sleep? A. Keep the phone out of the bedroom. B. Go to bed one or two hours earlier. C. Use eye-friendly screens to play games. 6. What’s the main idea of the text? A. Kids’ unhealthy living habits. B. Some useful advice to develop good habits. C. A good phone use habit to help kids fall asleep easier. 【答案】3. C 4. B 5. A 6. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，通过一个实验表明，在睡觉前的1~2个小时，应该使手机远离卧室，这样会帮助获得一个更好的睡眠。 【3题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“A second camera was placed in their bedrooms to monitor their phone use in bed. The kids also wore a device (设备) to record their sleep.”可知，此处用第二个摄像头来放在他们的卧室里来监测他们的手机在床上的使用情况。因此“monitor”意为“监测”。故选C。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Researchers found that 99% of the kids used their phones in the two hours before bed, over half used their phones while in bed, and about a third used them after trying to sleep.”可知，超过一半的孩子在床上使用手机。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段内容“‘While the science guidebooks advise that no screen time in an hour or two before bed, keeping phones out of the bedroom might help you get a better night’s sleep,’ said the lead researcher, Bradley Brosnan.”可知，专家建议在睡觉前的一两个小时不要看屏幕。把手机放在卧室之外，也能够帮助获得一个更好的睡眠。故选A。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文通过一个实验表明，在睡觉前的1~2个小时，应该使手机远离卧室，这样会帮助获得一个更好的睡眠。由此可知，本文的主旨是帮助孩子更容易入睡的良好手机使用习惯。故选C。 C Do you know Chinese people ordered takeout (外卖) over 1,000 years ago? In the Song Dynasty, even emperors (皇帝) enjoyed food delivery (快递)! Common people also ordered meals—restaurant workers shouted daily specials on streets, and deliverymen brought food to homes. A famous painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival (《清明上河图》) even shows a takeout worker carrying meals in a special wooden box! Today, ordering food is easier than ever. With smart phones, we can get meals delivered in minutes. Over 60% of Chinese people order takeout twice a week. But experts said that depending too much on food delivery causes problems. Many takeout dishes are unhealthy. To make food tasty, restaurants use too much oil, salt, or sugar. Another danger is unsafe ingredients. Reports show that some restaurants use expired (过期的) food, and even reuse leftovers to cut costs. Eating this kind of food could cause some serious sicknesses. Takeout creates lots of trash. China produces over 6,500 tons of takeout waste daily—mostly plastic (塑料的) boxes and bags. These take 500 years to break down (分解)! They pollute rivers and oceans, hurting animals every single day. Ordering food seems cheap, but cooking at home saves more money. For example, the money of 30 takeout meals a month could buy enough rice to feed a family for months! Also, families who always order takeout miss the joy of cooking together. Food delivery isn’t all bad—it’s helpful when we’re sick or busy. But using it every day is like the old saying: “Too much of a good thing can be harmful.” Let’s learn from ancient people: they enjoyed takeout but still valued fresh, homemade meals. By cooking simple dishes with family, we protect our health, save money, and care for Earth—one meal at a time! 7. What did people in the Song Dynasty use to carry takeout meals? A. Plastic boxes and bags. B. A special wooden box. C. Common paper bags. 8. How does the writer show the pollution caused by takeout in Paragraph 4? A. By listing numbers. B. By offering advice. C. By making a comparison. 9. What’s the main purpose of Paragraph 5? A. To advise people to eat more rice. B. To show takeout is cheaper than cooking. C. To encourage people to cook at home. 10. Which of the following does the writer probably agree? A. Food delivery was not common in the old times. B. Too much of takeout can cause a lot of problems. C. We should say no to takeout because it’s all bad. 【答案】7. B 8. A 9. C 10. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了中国外卖的历史和现状，另外，讨论了现代外卖的便利性，但也指出了外卖带来的问题，最后作者建议人们减少对外卖的依赖，多在家做饭，以保护健康、节省开支并减少对环境的负面影响。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A famous painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival (《清明上河图》) even shows a takeout worker carrying meals in a special wooden box!”可知，在宋朝，人们用特制木盒来送外卖。故选B。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“China produces over 6,500 tons of takeout waste daily—mostly plastic (塑料的) boxes and bags. These take 500 years to break down (分解)! They pollute rivers and oceans, hurting animals every single day.”可知，第四段直接给出了外卖产生的垃圾数量，说明本段是通过列举数据来说明污染的严重性。故选A。 【9题详解】 段落大意题。根据第五段“Ordering food seems cheap, but cooking at home saves more money. For example, the money of 30 takeout meals a month could buy enough rice to feed a family for months! Also, families who always order takeout miss the joy of cooking together.”可知，本段主要讲到点外卖似乎便宜但实际上自己下厨更省钱，也能享受烹饪快乐，意在鼓励人们在家做饭。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据“But experts said that depending too much on food delivery causes problems.”、“Many takeout dishes are unhealthy.”、“Takeout creates lots of trash.”以及最后一段“But using it every day is like the old saying: ‘Too much of a good thing can be harmful.’ Let’s learn from ancient people: they enjoyed takeout but still valued fresh, homemade meals. By cooking simple dishes with family, we protect our health, save money, and care for Earth—one meal at a time!”可知，文中多次强调过度依赖外卖会带来健康和环境等方面的问题，因此作者认为过多的外卖会引发许多问题。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次。 Some people ski down mountains. Others climb big rocks or take photos of dangerous animals. ___11___ Some people take risks simply because it makes them feel good. Psychologist (心理学家) Marvin says that this kind of explorers (探索者) are always looking for change and excitement. When people do something new or risky, a chemical (化学物质) in the brain creates a pleasant feeling. ___12___ ___13___ For example, Mike Fay went on a dangerous 2,000-mile special journey in central Africa. He worked to help save the wildlife there. Fay’s journeys helped create 13 national parks. For other people, such as extreme athletes (极限运动员), taking risks is part of their job. Sports psychologist Shane says extreme athletes see the world differently. ___14___ Extreme athletes are different: they feel in control in dangerous situations. The danger can even help them. For example, skier Daron Rahlves says that being afraid makes him try harder to succeed. Most of us are not extreme athletes or explorers. ___15___ Some of us take social risks, such as speaking in front of a large group of people. Sometimes, we take risks of money, such as buying a house. And sometimes we take risks of jobs, such as leaving a job or starting a business. Most people take risks in some areas of life, but not in others. What kind of risk-taker are you? A. However, we still take risks in our lives. B. Why do people enjoy risky activities like these? C. They love this feeling and want to experience it as often as possible. D. In a dangerous activity, most people probably do not feel in control. E. Other people don’t take risks for the feeling of excitement but to achieve a goal. 【答案】11. B 12. C 13. E 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要解释了人们为什么喜欢冒险活动，并通过举例和心理学家的观点来说明不同人冒险的原因。 【11题详解】 根据“Some people ski down mountains. Others climb big rocks or take photos of dangerous animals.”以及“Some people take risks simply because it makes them feel good.”可知，前面列举了一些冒险活动，后面说的是人们冒险的原因，所以此处应该是问人们为什么喜欢这样的冒险活动，选项B“为什么人们喜欢这样的冒险活动呢？”符合语境。故选B。 【12题详解】 根据“When people do something new or risky, a chemical (化学物质) in the brain creates a pleasant feeling.”可知，这里说的是人们做新的或冒险的事情时会产生一种愉悦的感觉，接下来应该说人们对这种感觉的态度，选项C“他们喜欢这种感觉，并希望尽可能多地体验它。”符合语境。故选C。 【13题详解】 根据“For example, Mike Fay went on a dangerous 2,000-mile special journey in central Africa. He worked to help save the wildlife there. Fay’s journeys helped create 13 national parks.”可知，这里举例说明有些人冒险不是为了刺激的感觉，而是为了实现一个目标，选项E“其他人冒险不是为了兴奋的感觉，而是为了实现一个目标。”符合语境。故选E。 【14题详解】 根据“Extreme athletes are different: they feel in control in dangerous situations.”可知，此处将极限运动员和大多数人进行对比，说极限运动员在危险情况下能掌控局面，那么前面应该说大多数人在危险活动中可能感觉无法掌控，选项D“在危险活动中，大多数人可能感觉无法掌控局面。”符合语境。故选D。 【15题详解】 根据“Most of us are not extreme athletes or explorers.”以及“Some of us take social risks, such as speaking in front of a large group of people. Sometimes, we take risks of money, such as buying a house. And sometimes we take risks of jobs, such as leaving a job or starting a business.”可知，前面说我们大多数人不是极限运动员或探险家，后面说我们在生活中也会冒险，所以此处应该是表示转折，说我们在生活中仍然会冒险，选项A“然而，我们在生活中仍然会冒险。”符合语境。故选A。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分25分） 第一节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Mary, a 22-year-old woman, stands in the kitchen of the La Hotel in Manila, preparing to make a cake.

Lei Feng is probably one of the most famous Chinese soldier (士兵). He helped many people during his 22 years of life. Even though he died over 60 years ago, the “Lei Feng spirit” still encourages Chinese people to do volunteer work. In 1963, Chairman Mao called on the nation to learn from Lei Feng, and March 5th of every year has been named as “Lei Feng Day”. During this month, a group of Malaysian (马来西亚的) students, studying at the Changsha Social Work College, volunteered to serve passengers at the Changsha Railway Station with their Chinese schoolmates. They carefully helped passengers get on the train safely and book tickets. They also provided waiting rooms for special passengers and solved problems for them. “I was so excited when I was called a ‘living Lei Feng’! That was the highest praise (赞扬) for me as a volunteer!” said Lan Zhicong, the Chinese name of an international student from Malaysia. He learnt about Lei Feng’s stories when he was in Malaysia. After coming to Changsha, Lei Feng’s hometown, he became a “living Lei Feng” and continued the “Lei Feng stories” with his actions. “Volunteering is about giving, but I’ve gotten a lot, too,” he said. This year, Changsha Social Work College held an activity called “Learn from Lei Feng in Lei Feng’s hometown”. Many volunteer teams of teachers and students did different volunteer jobs at stations, communities or schools to pass on the Lei Feng spirit. In Changsha, everyone can be a “living Lei Feng”. The students, like Lan Zhicong, truly enjoyed being volunteers. They realized helping others not only brings joy to people in need but also makes themselves happier. Let’s all carry forward the Lei Feng spirit and make the world a better place. 36 When is Lei Feng Day? ____________________________________________________________ 37.

However, falling asleep isn’t as easy as expected. What’s wrong? Here is a study that may tell you the answer. According to a new study, your phone may be the main problem. Researchers asked 85 kids aged 11 to 14 to wear body cameras for a week, starting from three hours before bedtime. A second camera was placed in their bedrooms to monitor their phone use in bed. The kids also wore a device (设备) to record their sleep. Researchers found that 99% of the kids used their phones in the two hours before bed, over half used their phones while in bed, and about a third used them after trying to sleep. The results showed that screen time in bed put off kids’ sleep by about half an hour and cut down on their total sleep time. The influence (影响) was larger when they played games or used more than one screen. “While the science guidebooks advise that no screen time in an hour or two before bed, keeping phones out of the bedroom might help you get a better night’s sleep,” said the lead researcher, Bradley Brosnan. Now from the meaningful study, teenagers should come to know that your phone can make it difficult for you to fall asleep, so why don’t you put down your phone before going to bed or keep away from it so that you can get a sound sleep? It’s really a must for wise kids today. 3. What does the underlined word “monitor” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. 远离 B. 保管 C. 监视 4. How many of the kids used their phones while in bed? A. Less than 30%. B. More than 50%. C. Exactly 99%. 5. What’s Bradley Brosnan’s advice for a better sleep? A. Keep the phone out of the bedroom. B. Go to bed one or two hours earlier. C. Use eye-friendly screens to play games. 6. What’s the main idea of the text? A. Kids’ unhealthy living habits. B. Some useful advice to develop good habits. C A good phone use habit to help kids fall asleep easier. C Do you know Chinese people ordered takeout (外卖) over 1,000 years ago? In the Song Dynasty, even emperors (皇帝) enjoyed food delivery (快递)! Common people also ordered meals—restaurant workers shouted daily specials on streets, and deliverymen brought food to homes. A famous painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival (《清明上河图》) even shows a takeout worker carrying meals in a special wooden box! Today, ordering food is easier than ever. With smart phones, we can get meals delivered in minutes. Over 60% of Chinese people order takeout twice a week. But experts said that depending too much on food delivery causes problems. Many takeout dishes are unhealthy. To make food tasty, restaurants use too much oil, salt, or sugar. Another danger is unsafe ingredients. Reports show that some restaurants use expired (过期) food, and even reuse leftovers to cut costs. Eating this kind of food could cause some serious sicknesses. Takeout creates lots of trash. China produces over 6,500 tons of takeout waste daily—mostly plastic (塑料的) boxes and bags. These take 500 years to break down (分解)! They pollute rivers and oceans, hurting animals every single day. Ordering food seems cheap, but cooking at home saves more money. For example, the money of 30 takeout meals a month could buy enough rice to feed a family for months! Also, families who always order takeout miss the joy of cooking together. Food delivery isn’t all bad—it’s helpful when we’re sick or busy. But using it every day is like the old saying: “Too much of a good thing can be harmful.” Let’s learn from ancient people: they enjoyed takeout but still valued fresh homemade meals. By cooking simple dishes with family, we protect our health, save money, and care for Earth—one meal at a time! 7. What did people in the Song Dynasty use to carry takeout meals? A. Plastic boxes and bags. B. A special wooden box. C. Common paper bags. 8. How does the writer show the pollution caused by takeout in Paragraph 4? A. By listing numbers. B. By offering advice. C. By making a comparison. 9. What’s the main purpose of Paragraph 5? A. To advise people to eat more rice. B. To show takeout is cheaper than cooking. C. To encourage people to cook at home. 10. Which of the following does the writer probably agree? A. Food delivery was not common in the old times. B Too much of takeout can cause a lot of problems. C. We should say no to takeout because it’s all bad. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次。 Some people ski down mountains.

Lei Feng is probably one of the most famous Chinese soldier (士兵). He helped many people during his 22 years of life. Even though he died over 60 years ago, the “Lei Feng spirit” still encourages Chinese people to do volunteer work. In 1963, Chairman Mao called on the nation to learn from Lei Feng, and March 5th of every year has been named as “Lei Feng Day”. During this month, a group of Malaysian (马来西亚的) students, studying at the Changsha Social Work College, volunteered to serve passengers at the Changsha Railway Station with their Chinese schoolmates. They carefully helped passengers get on the train safely and book tickets. They also provided waiting rooms for special passengers and solved problems for them. “I was so excited when I was called a ‘living Lei Feng’! That was the highest praise (赞扬) for me as a volunteer!” said Lan Zhicong, the Chinese name of an international student from Malaysia. He learnt about Lei Feng’s stories when he was in Malaysia. After coming to Changsha, Lei Feng’s hometown, he became a “living Lei Feng” and continued the “Lei Feng stories” with his actions. “Volunteering is about giving, but I’ve gotten a lot, too,” he said. This year, Changsha Social Work College held an activity called “Learn from Lei Feng in Lei Feng’s hometown”. Many volunteer teams of teachers and students did different volunteer jobs at stations, communities or schools to pass on the Lei Feng spirit. In Changsha, everyone can be a “living Lei Feng”. The students, like Lan Zhicong, truly enjoyed being volunteers. They realized helping others not only brings joy to people in need but also makes themselves happier. Let’s all carry forward the Lei Feng spirit and make the world a better place. 36. When is Lei Feng Day? ____________________________________________________________ 37.
