It's terrible and strange, but I don't really remember much about the hurricane itself. It all happened so suddenly. I was sitting in my room with my cat, Smartie, on my lap, when the roof just flew off. I was so frightened that I just froze.

Mom cried to get out quickly, but it was already too late by then. The rain was coming down so hard and so fast. Our street turned into a river in seconds. We were going nowhere.

At first, I was pleased we could stay at home, but soon it got really tough. Without a roof, staying inside was too dangerous. We just had drinking water that was sent to us by helicopter, but it was never enough. It was August, so it was really, really hot and it smelled so bad everywhere! 1 just spent the days watching the boats going up and down the street and looking out for Smartie. He had disappeared the moment the storm hit.

Living in the open air, we became breakfast, lunch and dinner for the mosquitoes. But Mom said that whatever happens, we should always try to see the good side of things. It was difficult to stay positive, though. All we had left were the clothes on our backs. But as Mom kept on reminding us, we were all together and safe. Mom's words made us feel better. I remember us all lying under the midnight sky and looking up at the stars. Because there were no lights, we could see the Big Dipper, and the Milky Way. It was amazing! Despite the disaster, moments like those gave us hope for the future.

Although it was only a few days before we were rescued, it felt like months. We were taken to another town in a faraway county. Thankfully, Smartie came home just in time. None of us knew that we wouldn't be back for quite a while then.

Now, one year has passed and I'm back home in New Orleans. Some families have yet to return, but many others have come back. Although we are surrounded by reminders of the disaster. we are working together to rebuild our homes and our lives. Now we have another chance to look up at the stars of New Orleans, their beauty inspiring us and giving us confidence to move on.

24. When did this hurricane hit the author's hometown?

A. In September.    B.  In  August.      C. In July. D. In Summer.

A. We ate mosquitoes as our meals.

B. There were too many mosquitoes.

C. We were tired of those mosquitoes.

D. We were bitten by mosquitoes constantly.

26.What can we learn about those families in that area?

A. Some families still didn't return home. 

B. Most families came back home.

C. Few families returned home.    

D. Only we came back home.

27.Who played the most important role in surviving this disaster?

A. The author himself. B. The author's mum.

When students got their textbooks at the beginning of the year at San Mateo High School，they also received the Yondr pouch(口袋)，a locking device for their phones.The phone slides into it and gets locked through a magnetic(磁力的) device.It’s not unlocked again until the final bell rings.The procedure will repeat every day for the rest of the school year.

Adam Gelb，the vice-president，ran a pilot project last year with 20 students and decided to do a school-wide，bell to bell program for this school year.The Yondr pouch is a start-up in San Francisco with a mission to create phone-free spaces，something that is the very thought with Gelb.

“I really think it’s about being present and engaging in the adult that’s trying to teach you，and your peers that might be in your small group.  That’s part of the main philosophy that we’re trying to spread，” he said.

Brad  Friedman，another teacher at the school，said he was becoming concerned about overuse of phones at school.He said he often saw students completely lost in their phones，some not socializing at all with other students.

This week，he’s already seeing the difference.“Everyone else is socializing and eating lunch together.That’s what I wasn’t seeing enough of when phone usage was at its worst，” he said.

As a senior at San Mateo High School， Djelani  Phillips-Diop said he definitely panicked at first when he heard he had to lock his phone.“I panicked，I guess.  Last year when we had phones，I was using it every day，” he said.

In case of emergency，every classroom has the unlocking device.Teachers still have access to their own cellphones and desk phones.“We’ve gotten all 1,700 students unlocked with a matter of minutes，” said  Gelb.

We spoke to four students who，despite their initial panic，agreed that a phone-free school experience has its benefits.

28．What can we learn about the Yondr pouch from Paragraph 1?

A．It is a device to lock phones.             B．It is a bell to unlock phones.

C．It is a device to be used for a year.    D．It is a phone intended for students.

29．The Youdr  pouch is used more in  Gelb’s  school to  .

A．create space to use phones freely

B．help the students to be more outgoing

C．encourage more mutual communication among students

D．help the students to realize the harm of overuse of phones

30．What is Friedman’s attitude to the use of the Yondr pouch?

A．Concerned.  B．Favorable.    C．Disapproving.   D．Doubtful.

31．What can be learned from the passage?

A．The students were willing to have their phones locked at first.

B．The phone will get unlocked automatically when there is an emergency.

C．Students prefer eating lunch together with their phones in hand.

D．Some students came to realize the benefits of the phone-free program.
