An alarm clock may seem outdated, with your smartphone’s endless number of tones and apps to wake you up. But using your phone as your alarm can tempt you to use it before you tuck in, and that can lead to lower-quality sleep. To help you replace your phone’s alarm, we put 18 top-rated alarm clocks to the test — from analog tickers (模拟记录器) to tech-filled wake-up lights. For a whole month, we set alarms, let them ring to find the best of the best. After all our tests, four alarm clocks rose above the others.
Jall Wooden Clock
An Alarm clock overall
The Jall Wooden Clock looks great and has everything you need in an alarm clock. It’s simple to set, read and use, and can wake you dependably with multiple alarms.
From $20 at Amazon
DreamSky Portable Digital Alarm Clock
A clock with a highly visible screen
An easy-to-use alarm clock without any bells and whistles to get in the way, the DreamSky is simple, durable and highly readable, and will get you out of bed in the morning with a loud beep that isn’t too startling.

One day, a young man went to Dr. Conwell and told him he wanted a college education but couldn’t afford it. Dr. Conwell decided, at that moment, what his aim in life was, besides being a man of the cloth. He decided to build a university for unfortunate, but deserving, students. He did have a challenge, however. He would need a few million dollars to build the university. For Dr. Conwell, and anyone with real purpose in life, nothing could stand in the way of his goal.
Several years before this incident, Dr. Conwell was attracted by a true story with its ageless moral. The story was about a farmer who lived in Africa and through a visitor became excited about looking for diamonds. Diamonds were already discovered in abundance on the African continent and this farmer got so excited about the idea of millions of dollars’ worth of diamonds that he sold his farm to head for the diamond line. He wandered all over the continent, constantly searching for diamonds, wealth, which he never found. Eventually he went completely broke and threw himself into a river and died.
Meanwhile, the new owner of his farm picked up an unusual-looking rock about the size of an egg and put it on his mantle (斗篷) as a sort of curiosity. A visitor stopped by. He told the new owner that the funny-looking rock was about the biggest diamond that had ever been found. The new owner shouted, “God, the whole farm is covered with them.”
The farm turned out to be the Kimberly Diamond Mine, the richest the world has ever known. The original farmer was literally standing on “Acres of Diamonds” until he sold his farm.
Dr. Conwell learned from the story of the farmer and continued to teach its moral. Opportunity does not just come along; it is there all the time-we just have to see it. Dr. Conwell told the story over and over again on many occasions for raising money to start the college for poor students. In fact, he raised nearly six million dollars and the university he founded, Temple University in Philadelphia, has at least ten degree-granting colleges and six other schools.
4. What caused Dr. Conwell to build a university?
A. His wife’s suggestion. B. A young man’s requirement.
C. A millionaire’s donation. D. His education experience.
5. Why did the farmer give up his farm?
A. He wanted to wander around the world.
B. He planned to build a university.
C. He threw himself into a river.
D. He meant to seek his fortune.
6. In which condition did the new owner find the Kimberly Diamond Mine?
A. He exchanged his rock for eggs. B. He sold his mantles to visitors.
C. He decorated his mantle by a rock. D. He sorted out the whole farm.
7. Which of the following best describes Dr. Conwell?
A. Adaptable. B. Considerate.
C. Disciplined. D. Purposeful.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Dr. Conwell受到启发,通过演讲自己钟爱的故事筹集了大量的黄金为贫困年轻人创建了一所大学的故事。

细节理解题。根据第一段的“One day, a young man went to Dr. Conwell and told him he wanted a college education but couldn’t afford it. Dr. Conwell decided, at that moment, what his aim in life was, besides being a man of the cloth. He decided to build a university for unfortunate, but deserving, students.(一天,一个年轻人去找Conwell博士,告诉他他想上大学,但负担不起。在那一刻,Conwell博士决定了他的人生目标,除了做一名神职人员。他决定为那些不幸但值得尊敬的学生建一所大学)”可知,一位年轻人的要求促使Conwell博士建立了一所大学,故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“The story was about a farmer who lived in Africa and through a visitor became excited about looking for diamonds. Diamonds were already discovered in abundance on the African continent and this farmer got so excited about the idea of millions of dollars’ worth of diamonds that he sold his farm to head for the diamond line. He wandered all over the continent, constantly searching for diamonds, wealth, which he never found.(这个故事是关于一个住在非洲的农民,通过一个来访者,他对寻找钻石感到兴奋。非洲大陆上已经发现了大量的钻石,这个农民对价值数百万美元的钻石的想法感到非常兴奋,以至于他卖掉了自己的农场,前往有钻石的地方。他走遍了整个大陆,不断地寻找钻石和财富,但他从未找到)”可知,农民放弃了他的农场是因为他想寻找钻石,打算发财。故选D。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Meanwhile, the new owner of his farm picked up an unusual-looking rock about the size of an egg and put it on his mantle (斗篷) as a sort of curiosity. A visitor stopped by. He told the new owner that the funny-looking rock was about the biggest diamond that had ever been found.(与此同时,他的农场的新主人拿起一块看起来很不寻常的石头,大约有一个鸡蛋大小,把它放在他的斗篷上,作为一种好奇心。一位访客路过。他告诉新主人,这块看起来很滑稽的石头是迄今为止发现的最大的钻石)”可知,他用一块石头装饰他的披风时发现了钻石。故选C。

C
Polar bears rely on glacial ice to hunt, travel, rest, and mate. With the increased loss of their habitats due to climate change, scientists have become more concerned with understanding how polar bears might adapt their behaviors when their habitats and hunting patterns are threatened.
In southeastern Greenland, scientists have started to understand the adapting habits of these “sea bears” by studying a newly discovered subgroup of polar bears that hunt and live differently. This group of a few hundred bears is the most genetically distinct population that has been scientifically documented. Within the southeastern region, heavy snowfall and troubled weather patterns make studies like these difficult but ecology teams were able to use heavy - duty helicopters to study the bears on and off - site.
Researchers believe that this group of polar bears are so genetically distinctive because of the isolation they face within their habitat. Tucked away in the mountainous regions of the Greenland Ice Sheet, polar bears are forced to remain within similarly isolated areas. Without the approach to sea ice for around 70% of the year, these mammals adapt by using floating blocks of broken-off glacial ice to hunt their favorite food, seals. This study marks the first time that polar bears have been seen using frozen freshwater for the majority of the year. With the area’s sea ice decreasing, this research team believes that the muddy glacial areas are used as a new hunting ground in the ever-warming Arctic ice.
In this dynamic and unforgiving environment, these polar bears stay closer to home when compared to the average polar bears. Researchers found that these female polar bears cover a distance of just 10 kilometers in 4 days when compared to around 40 kilometers of the average female bear in the northeastern region of Greenland. While these polar bears can give us a clue into the future of the species, researchers note that environments like these are rare outside of Greenland and that this hopeful study does not change the severity of the declining sea ice. The researchers hope to use their findings as a starting point to spark preservation efforts and conservation. Lead researcher and ecologist at the University of Washington’s Polar Science Center, Kristin L. Laidre expressed, “They’re an important group because they can help us look into the future.”
8. What challenge are the polar bears facing?
A. The decrease in their populations. B. The increase of their living places.
C. The loss of their food sources. D. The effect of people’s hunting patterns.
9. How did scientists research polar bears?
A. They capture polar bears directly for their research.
B. They studied polar bears by taking pictures with helicopters.
C. They understood polar bears by studying their subgroups.
D. They scientifically documented gene distinction.
10. What does the underlined words “Tucked away” mean in the third paragraph?
A. Hidden. B. Locked. C. Farmed. D. Blocked.
11. What conclusion can we draw from this research?
A. Polar bears live in the sea water for most of the year.
B. Polar bears moved to muddy glacial areas for food.
C. Polar bears could live far from beachline alone.
D. Polar bears suggests the future situation of mankind.
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍科学家通过研究格陵兰岛东南部的北极熊亚种群,了解其在冰川消融环境下的生存适应行为。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“With the increased loss of their habitats due to climate change, scientists have become more concerned with understanding how polar bears might adapt their behaviors when their habitats and hunting patterns are threatened.(随着气候变化导致栖息地不断消失,科学家更加关注当栖息地和捕猎模式受到威胁时,北极熊会如何调整自身行为。)”可知,北极熊因栖息地消失,捕猎受到影响,正面临食物来源减少的问题。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In southeastern Greenland, scientists have started to understand the adapting habits of these “sea bears” by studying a newly discovered subgroup of polar bears that hunt and live differently. (在格陵兰岛东南部,科学家通过研究一个新发现的、捕猎与生活方式截然不同的北极熊亚种群,开始了解这些“海洋熊”的适应习性。)”可知,科学家通过研究北极熊亚种群来了解它们。故选C项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段的“Researchers believe that this group of polar bears are so genetically distinctive because of the isolation they face within their habitat.(研究人员认为,这群北极熊在基因上如此独特,是因为它们在栖息地中面临着隔离)”可知,这群北极熊孤立地生活在栖息地,所以此处指这群北极熊的栖息地隐藏在山区,由此可知,划线短语Tucked away的意思是“隐藏”,和hidden意思相近。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第三段中的“With the area’s sea ice decreasing, this research team believes that the muddy glacial areas are used as a new hunting ground in the ever-warming Arctic ice.(随着该地区海冰减少,研究团队认为,在不断变暖的北极冰层中,泥泞的冰川区域已成为新的捕猎场。)”可知,北极熊为了获取食物,转移到了泥泞的冰川区域。故选B项。
D
Companies like Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) are part of the Green Hydrogen Coalition focusing on renewable energy to create hydrogen (H2). Solar power will be used to replace almost 25 percent of the company’s current natural gas production, with plans to change four natural gas power plants to green hydrogen. Hydrogen is a clean-burning gas that can be used in power generation, energy storage, and as automotive fuel.
Meanwhile, fuel cell and hydrogen producer Plug Power has started more than 165 fueling stations in its gas network. Plug Power believes that nobody will buy so-called blue or gray hydrogen made from natural gas, which is associated with high levels of carbon dioxide emissions if there is a ready supply of green H2. Blue hydrogen uses carbon capture and storage technology that is still too expensive and inefficient after decades of research to remove all carbon emissions. And Cornell and Stanford University researchers say both blue and gray may be worse for the climate than burning gas or coal.
Transport is just one of many industries aiming for rapid decarbonization (脱碳). Rocketing natural gas and oil prices have made driving too expensive for already taxed households. So a switch to green hydrogen makes sense, rather than extracting (提取) it from expensive and environmentally damaging fossil fuels. The U.S. Department of Energy is currently researching onboard storage tanks that will allow vehicles to drive more than 300 miles on one fill.
Hydrogen promises to revitalize (使得到复兴) and decarbonize heavy industries like shipping, steel, and chemicals, not just domestic transport and home heating, and that makes it a green, flexible replacement for fossil fuels. If the Department of Energy hits its target of reducing H2 production costs by 80 percent to around one dollar per kilogram in a decade then a hydrogen strategy looks like the right call.
12. What is SoCalGas doing?
A. It is making renewable energy-hydrogen-on a large scale.
B. It is decarbonizing the waste gas of heavy industry.
C. It is preparing to use hydrogen instead of natural gas.
D. It is producing automobiles that use hydrogen as a fuel.
13. Why does green hydrogen have an advantage over blue or gray hydrogen?
A. There are more green hydrogen fueling stations.
B. Green hydrogen is made from renewable energy resources.
C. Carbon capture and storage technology is used in making green hydrogen.
D. Green hydrogen produces high levels of carbon dioxide emissions.
14. What is the prospect for green hydrogen use?
A. The transport of green hydrogen is a great challenge.
B. People can’t afford expensive green hydrogen.
C. Green hydrogen is likely to be the main fuel source in life.
D. The use of green hydrogen would make homes tax-free.
15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Green Hydrogen Will Fuel the World’s Zero-carbon Industries
B. Breakthroughs in Fuel Technology are Coming
C. Blue Hydrogen is an Efficient Carbon-free Fuel
D. Keeping the Industry Environmentally Friendly is Difficult
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. A

China announced a long-awaited plan to integrate the Pearl River Delta Area (PRDA) as an attempt to create a powerhouse to rival the US Silicon Valley that is home to such well-known companies as Google, Facebook and Apple. The possibilities and challenges of the effort are both equally promising and challenging.
The plan is a natural result of the economic and technological development in the area. China’s opening up to the world more than four decades ago began in the area and PRDA has long been home to many of the country’s leading technological companies, including Huawei and Tencent.
“The plan is promising,” said Adam Xu, an analyst at OC & C Strategy Consultants. “If you really look at history in China, a lot of top-down plans always have very strong bottom-up support. And a lot of economic activities have already happened there. Now they have a bigger plan to officially recognize, promote and further accelerate.”
The key challenge will be execution (执行). The plan has to integrate three different legal systems among Mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau. That makes PRDA unique compared to the other two major areas in China — the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region and the Yangtze River Delta Area near Shanghai.
“We don’t know how effectively the top-down plan will guide the many independent growing forces at the local level,” Xu admitted. “This part will be quite an important challenge.”
China has already taken major steps to overcome some of the physical barriers, such as linking Hong Kong with Guangzhou and Shenzhen by high-speed railways and its recent opening of the 55-kilometer Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau bridge. But other barriers, such as the flow of people, information and money, may prove to be a bigger challenge.
“The biggest challenge and the biggest beauty, if they eventually succeed, will be linking all of these together,” Xu said. “Once integrated, Hong Kong serves as a global financial center, Shenzhen as a technology and innovation lab, Guangzhou as a trade powerhouse, and Macau as a tourism and cultural bridge. Together, they reflect the dynamism of China’s growth and its deepening engagement with the world.”
16. What does Adam Xu want to stress in Paragraph 3?
A. The favorable conditions in PRDA.
B. The benefits of top-down plans in China.
C. The speed of carrying out the plan.
D. The flow of people, information and money.
17. What is the unique challenge in PRDA?
A. The physical barriers. B. Different legal systems.
C. The cultural differences. D. The local governments’ support.
18. Why does Xu attach importance to the integration?
A. It sharpens city competition.
B. It strengthens global cooperation.
C. It shows China’s development vitality.
D. It enhances cross-border efficiency.
19. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Potentials and Difficulties of Integrating PRDA
B. The Problems Facing China’s Newly Announced Plans
C. The Advantages of Integrating the Other Two Areas
D. Different Legal Systems in Hong Kong and Macau
【答案】16. A 17. B 18. C 19. A

推理判断题。根据文章第三段Adam Xu所说“If you really look at history in China, a lot of top-down plans always have very strong bottom-up support. And a lot of economic activities have already happened there.(如果你回顾中国的历史,很多自上而下的计划总是有着非常强大的自下而上的支持。而且那里已经有许多经济活动发生。)”以及“Now they have a bigger plan to officially recognize, promote and further accelerate.(现在他们有了一个更大的计划来正式确认、推动并进一步加速发展。)”可推知,Xu在此强调的是珠三角地区已有的经济基础和自下而上的支持,这些都为一体化计划提供了有利条件。故选A。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The plan has to integrate three different legal systems among Mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau. That makes PRDA unique compared to the other two major areas in China(该计划必须整合中国大陆、香港和澳门三种不同的法律体系。这使得珠三角与中国另外两大区域相比具有独特性。)”可知,珠三角地区面临的独特挑战是需要整合三种不同的法律体系。故选B。
【18题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段Xu所说“Together, they reflect the dynamism of China's growth and its deepening engagement with the world.(它们共同反映了中国发展的活力及其与世界日益加深的接触。)”可知,Xu重视一体化是因为它展现了中国的发展活力。故选C。
【19题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,文章第一段就点明“The possibilities and challenges of the effort are both equally promising and challenging.(这一努力的潜力和挑战都同样巨大且充满希望与挑战)”,接着全文围绕珠三角一体化的潜力(如经济基础、城市定位)和挑战(如法律体系整合、人员信息资金流动)展开论述。A项“珠三角一体化的潜力与困难”准确概括了文章主旨,适合用作标题。故选A。

【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:无论是手写还是印刷,书法风格的对联一直是与中国新年庆祝活动相关的节日习俗的重要组成部分。be associated with为固定短语,意为“与……有关”,此处应用非谓语动词作后置定语,修饰festive customs,festive customs与associate之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词associated。故填associated。
【41题详解】
考查连词。句意:无论简短还是冗长,由几个字或几十个字组成,这些对联代表了中国文化的文学精神,涵盖诗歌、散文和词曲,同时唤起欢乐的情感。whether...or...为固定搭配,意为“无论……还是……”,所以填or。故填or。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:无论简短还是冗长,由几个字或几十个字组成,这些对联代表了中国文化的文学精神,涵盖诗歌、散文和词曲,同时唤起欢乐的情感。此处修饰名词spirit,应用形容词literary,意为“文学的”。故填literary。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:《春风骏马图》,中国美术馆正在进行的一场展览,是该馆通过展示融合书法与文学之美的手写对联来庆祝中国新年的年度活动。此处表示泛指“一场正在进行的展览”,ongoing是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词an。故填an。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:《春风骏马图》,中国美术馆正在进行的一场展览,是该馆通过展示融合书法与文学之美的手写对联来庆祝中国新年的年度活动。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语动词is,所以此处应用非谓语动词,handwritten couplets与integrate之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词integrating作后置定语,修饰handwritten couplets。故填integrating。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意:此次展览将持续至3月8日,展品主要取自中国美术馆馆藏,以内容丰富、语言简洁、构图平衡而著称。此处修饰动词drawn,应用副词primarily,意为“主要地”。故填primarily。
【46题详解】
考查介词。句意:许多参展对联由当代艺术家创作,他们将传统技法与现代美学相融合,使这一古老艺术能为年轻一代所接触。be accessible to为固定短语,意为“可被……接近(或利用、理解)”,所以填to。故填to。
【47题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:参观者还可以参加互动工作坊,在那里他们可以在专业书法家的指导下学习书写自己的对联。此处为非限制性定语从句,先行词是interactive workshops,在从句中作地点状语,相当于in interactive workshops,所以用关系副词where引导。故填where。
【48题详解】
考查名词。句意:参观者还可以参加互动工作坊,在那里他们可以在专业书法家的指导下学习书写自己的对联。根据the和of可知,此处应用名词guidance,意为“指导”,作under的宾语,guidance是不可数名词。故填guidance。
【49题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:这个展览生动地提醒我们,中国文化遗产具有持久的吸引力,它将过去与现在联系起来,激励新一代珍惜并传承这些传统。句子陈述客观事实,应用一般现在时,主语This exhibition是单数,所以用serves。故填serves。
第三节 单词拼写(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
50. The government released an ________ (正式的, 官方的) announcement to explain the new regulations in detail. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】official

【答案】consequences
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:如果你一直犯粗心的错误,那么将来你就得对自己的行为所造成的严重后果负责。空处用于形容词serious之后,应用名词consequence作宾语,此处表示“后果”,为可数名词,由语境可知,此处不止一个后果,应用复数形式。故填consequences。
52. Her true ________ (慷慨) lies not only in giving money or things but also in showing care to people who are lonely and in trouble. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】generosity
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:她真正的慷慨不仅体现在给予金钱或物品上,还体现在对那些孤独无助之人给予关怀上。形容词true后接名词形式,在句中作主语。名词“慷慨”英文为generosity,为不可数名词。故填generosity。
53. Many people hope to find happiness and ________ (永恒) in their work and family instead of living a life full of uncertainty and frequent changes. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】eternity
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:许多人希望在工作和家庭中找到幸福与永恒,而非过充满不确定与频繁变动的生活。根据汉语提示“永恒”可知,空处需要名词eternity,和and前的happiness并列作宾语。故填eternity。
54. The old forest was badly ________ (摧毁) by the sudden storm, and it will take many years for the trees and wildlife to return to their original state. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】destroyed
【解析】

第四节 单句填空(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
55. Tom is such a kind-hearted boy _______ we all admire. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】as
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:汤姆是这样一个我们都钦佩的善良的男孩。空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词boy,先行词指人,在从句中作admire的宾语,先行词前有such修饰,应用as作引导词。故填as。
56. Occasions ______ I truly treasure are rare, which makes them all the more special. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】that##which
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:那些我真正珍视的时刻十分罕见,这也让它们愈发特别。此处为关系词引导的定语从句,从句中缺少treasure的宾语,所以此处使用关系代词,先行词为Occasions,表物,因此使用关系代词that或which。故填that/which。
57. Many a college student __________(send) to the poor area to help the children there last month. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】was sent
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和语态。句意:上个月,很多大学生被送到贫困地区去帮助那里的孩子。此处在句中作谓语动词,主语为Many a college student,与send之间为被动关系,且根据时间状语last month可知,此处应用一般过去时,“many a+单数名词”作主语,谓语动词应用单数,故填was sent。
58. Art is everywhere around us. Look! Beautiful works of art __________ (paint) on that building. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】are being painted
【解析】
【详解】考查动词。句意:艺术在我们周围无处不在。看!那座建筑物上正在被画上美丽的艺术品。根据句中的look可知,动作此时此刻正在发生,故使用现在进行时;同时works与paint之间是被动关系,故使用现在进行时的被动语态,主语works是复数。故填are being painted。
59. Citywalk that many youngsters are nowadays keen on ________(prove) a perfect way to appreciate the history and culture of the city. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】proves
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和主谓一致。句意:事实证明如今许多年轻人热衷的城市漫步是欣赏城市历史和文化的完美方式。分析句子可知,that many youngsters are nowadays keen on为that引导的修饰Citywalk的限制性定语从句,空处作主句的谓语,prove意为“被证明是,结果是”,是系动词,无被动语态,结合are可知,此处在描述当前的情况,时态宜用一般现在时,主语Citywalk为单数,因此prove应用第三人称单数形式。故填proves。

【答案】【参考范文1】
Dear Tim,
Hope you’re having a great day. I’m following up on our plan to attend the outdoor concert next Friday.
I understand that transportation may be an issue for you, but we could share a cab and split the cost. The distance may seem challenging, yet this is not a pop music concert. It’s a classical one where several celebrated symphony orchestras will perform well-known compositions. It must be a feast for us. We may even get an album with performers’ autographs. You should never miss such an incredible opportunity!
Hopefully, you’ll consider joining me for this musical treat. Let me know your thoughts, and we can work out the details together.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
【参考范文2】
Dear Tim,
Remember the tempting outdoor concert to be held next Friday? I haven’t received your confirmation email yet.
Still concerned about transportation? I heard that other students are organizing a group trip. We can join them and share the expense. I truly believe this concert will be a feast. Picture us enjoying some incredible live music, meeting fascinating new people to spark great conversations, and exploring the beautiful park. Plus, with all the stress we’ve been dealing with, I think we both deserve a break. It’s the perfect way to escape the routine and unwind.
I hope that you’ll join me. Let’s make the most of our time in the great outdoors and have some fun!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

An alarm clock may seem outdated, with your smartphone’s endless number of tones and apps to wake you up. But using your phone as your alarm can tempt you to use it before you tuck in, and that can lead to lower-quality sleep. To help you replace your phone’s alarm, we put 18 top-rated alarm clocks to the test — from analog tickers (模拟记录器) to tech-filled wake-up lights. For a whole month, we set alarms, let them ring to find the best of the best. After all our tests, four alarm clocks rose above the others.
Jall Wooden Clock
An Alarm clock overall

An easy-to-use alarm clock without any bells and whistles to get in the way, the DreamSky is simple, durable and highly readable, and will get you out of bed in the morning with a loud beep that isn’t too startling.

Loftie
A luxury clock with the non-sunrise alarm
While $149 is a lot to pay for an alarm clock, the Loftie is well worth the money, thanks to its simple design, easy-to-navigate interface, soundscapes that make you quiet or less intensive to sleep and a gradual two-tone alarm. It’s a thoughtful product that makes the sleep experience feel like self-care.
$127 at Loftie. $149 at Saks Fifth Avenue. $149 at Nordstrom.

One day, a young man went to Dr. Conwell and told him he wanted a college education but couldn’t afford it. Dr. Conwell decided, at that moment, what his aim in life was, besides being a man of the cloth. He decided to build a university for unfortunate, but deserving, students. He did have a challenge, however. He would need a few million dollars to build the university. For Dr. Conwell, and anyone with real purpose in life, nothing could stand in the way of his goal.
Several years before this incident, Dr. Conwell was attracted by a true story with its ageless moral. The story was about a farmer who lived in Africa and through a visitor became excited about looking for diamonds. Diamonds were already discovered in abundance on the African continent and this farmer got so excited about the idea of millions of dollars’ worth of diamonds that he sold his farm to head for the diamond line. He wandered all over the continent, constantly searching for diamonds, wealth, which he never found. Eventually he went completely broke and threw himself into a river and died.
Meanwhile, the new owner of his farm picked up an unusual-looking rock about the size of an egg and put it on his mantle (斗篷) as a sort of curiosity. A visitor stopped by. He told the new owner that the funny-looking rock was about the biggest diamond that had ever been found. The new owner shouted, “God, the whole farm is covered with them.”
The farm turned out to be the Kimberly Diamond Mine, the richest the world has ever known. The original farmer was literally standing on “Acres of Diamonds” until he sold his farm.
Dr. Conwell learned from the story of the farmer and continued to teach its moral. Opportunity does not just come along; it is there all the time-we just have to see it. Dr. Conwell told the story over and over again on many occasions for raising money to start the college for poor students. In fact, he raised nearly six million dollars and the university he founded, Temple University in Philadelphia, has at least ten degree-granting colleges and six other schools.
4. What caused Dr. Conwell to build a university?
A. His wife’s suggestion. B. A young man’s requirement.
C. A millionaire’s donation. D. His education experience.
5. Why did the farmer give up his farm?
A. He wanted to wander around the world.
B. He planned to build a university.
C. He threw himself into a river.
D. He meant to seek his fortune.
6. In which condition did the new owner find the Kimberly Diamond Mine?
A. He exchanged his rock for eggs. B. He sold his mantles to visitors.
C. He decorated his mantle by a rock. D. He sorted out the whole farm.
7. Which of the following best describes Dr. Conwell?
A. Adaptable. B. Considerate.
C. Disciplined. D. Purposeful.
C
Polar bears rely on glacial ice to hunt, travel, rest, and mate. With the increased loss of their habitats due to climate change, scientists have become more concerned with understanding how polar bears might adapt their behaviors when their habitats and hunting patterns are threatened.
In southeastern Greenland, scientists have started to understand the adapting habits of these “sea bears” by studying a newly discovered subgroup of polar bears that hunt and live differently. This group of a few hundred bears is the most genetically distinct population that has been scientifically documented. Within the southeastern region, heavy snowfall and troubled weather patterns make studies like these difficult but ecology teams were able to use heavy - duty helicopters to study the bears on and off - site.
Researchers believe that this group of polar bears are so genetically distinctive because of the isolation they face within their habitat. Tucked away in the mountainous regions of the Greenland Ice Sheet, polar bears are forced to remain within similarly isolated areas. Without the approach to sea ice for around 70% of the year, these mammals adapt by using floating blocks of broken-off glacial ice to hunt their favorite food, seals. This study marks the first time that polar bears have been seen using frozen freshwater for the majority of the year. With the area’s sea ice decreasing, this research team believes that the muddy glacial areas are used as a new hunting ground in the ever-warming Arctic ice.
In this dynamic and unforgiving environment, these polar bears stay closer to home when compared to the average polar bears. Researchers found that these female polar bears cover a distance of just 10 kilometers in 4 days when compared to around 40 kilometers of the average female bear in the northeastern region of Greenland. While these polar bears can give us a clue into the future of the species, researchers note that environments like these are rare outside of Greenland and that this hopeful study does not change the severity of the declining sea ice. The researchers hope to use their findings as a starting point to spark preservation efforts and conservation. Lead researcher and ecologist at the University of Washington’s Polar Science Center, Kristin L. Laidre expressed, “They’re an important group because they can help us look into the future.”
8. What challenge are the polar bears facing?
A. The decrease in their populations. B. The increase of their living places.
C. The loss of their food sources. D. The effect of people’s hunting patterns.
9. How did scientists research polar bears?
A. They capture polar bears directly for their research.
B. They studied polar bears by taking pictures with helicopters.
C. They understood polar bears by studying their subgroups.
D. They scientifically documented gene distinction.
10. What does the underlined words “Tucked away” mean in the third paragraph?
A. Hidden. B. Locked. C. Farmed. D. Blocked.
11. What conclusion can we draw from this research?
A. Polar bears live in the sea water for most of the year.
B. Polar bears moved to muddy glacial areas for food.
C. Polar bears could live far from beachline alone.
D. Polar bears suggests the future situation of mankind.

Companies like Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) are part of the Green Hydrogen Coalition focusing on renewable energy to create hydrogen (H2). Solar power will be used to replace almost 25 percent of the company’s current natural gas production, with plans to change four natural gas power plants to green hydrogen. Hydrogen is a clean-burning gas that can be used in power generation, energy storage, and as automotive fuel.
Meanwhile, fuel cell and hydrogen producer Plug Power has started more than 165 fueling stations in its gas network. Plug Power believes that nobody will buy so-called blue or gray hydrogen made from natural gas, which is associated with high levels of carbon dioxide emissions if there is a ready supply of green H2. Blue hydrogen uses carbon capture and storage technology that is still too expensive and inefficient after decades of research to remove all carbon emissions. And Cornell and Stanford University researchers say both blue and gray may be worse for the climate than burning gas or coal.
Transport is just one of many industries aiming for rapid decarbonization (脱碳). Rocketing natural gas and oil prices have made driving too expensive for already taxed households. So a switch to green hydrogen makes sense, rather than extracting (提取) it from expensive and environmentally damaging fossil fuels. The U.S. Department of Energy is currently researching onboard storage tanks that will allow vehicles to drive more than 300 miles on one fill.
Hydrogen promises to revitalize (使得到复兴) and decarbonize heavy industries like shipping, steel, and chemicals, not just domestic transport and home heating, and that makes it a green, flexible replacement for fossil fuels. If the Department of Energy hits its target of reducing H2 production costs by 80 percent to around one dollar per kilogram in a decade then a hydrogen strategy looks like the right call.
12. What is SoCalGas doing?
A. It is making renewable energy-hydrogen-on a large scale.
B. It is decarbonizing the waste gas of heavy industry.
C. It is preparing to use hydrogen instead of natural gas.
D. It is producing automobiles that use hydrogen as a fuel.
13. Why does green hydrogen have an advantage over blue or gray hydrogen?
A. There are more green hydrogen fueling stations.
B. Green hydrogen is made from renewable energy resources.
C. Carbon capture and storage technology is used in making green hydrogen.
D. Green hydrogen produces high levels of carbon dioxide emissions.
14. What is the prospect for green hydrogen use?
A. The transport of green hydrogen is a great challenge.
B. People can’t afford expensive green hydrogen.
C. Green hydrogen is likely to be the main fuel source in life.
D. The use of green hydrogen would make homes tax-free.
15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Green Hydrogen Will Fuel the World’s Zero-carbon Industries
B. Breakthroughs in Fuel Technology are Coming
C. Blue Hydrogen is an Efficient Carbon-free Fuel
D. Keeping the Industry Environmentally Friendly is Difficult

China announced a long-awaited plan to integrate the Pearl River Delta Area (PRDA) as an attempt to create a powerhouse to rival the US Silicon Valley that is home to such well-known companies as Google, Facebook and Apple. The possibilities and challenges of the effort are both equally promising and challenging.
The plan is a natural result of the economic and technological development in the area. China’s opening up to the world more than four decades ago began in the area and PRDA has long been home to many of the country’s leading technological companies, including Huawei and Tencent.
“The plan is promising,” said Adam Xu, an analyst at OC & C Strategy Consultants. “If you really look at history in China, a lot of top-down plans always have very strong bottom-up support. And a lot of economic activities have already happened there. Now they have a bigger plan to officially recognize, promote and further accelerate.”
The key challenge will be execution (执行). The plan has to integrate three different legal systems among Mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau. That makes PRDA unique compared to the other two major areas in China — the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region and the Yangtze River Delta Area near Shanghai.
“We don’t know how effectively the top-down plan will guide the many independent growing forces at the local level,” Xu admitted. “This part will be quite an important challenge.”
China has already taken major steps to overcome some of the physical barriers, such as linking Hong Kong with Guangzhou and Shenzhen by high-speed railways and its recent opening of the 55-kilometer Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau bridge. But other barriers, such as the flow of people, information and money, may prove to be a bigger challenge.
“The biggest challenge and the biggest beauty, if they eventually succeed, will be linking all of these together,” Xu said. “Once integrated, Hong Kong serves as a global financial center, Shenzhen as a technology and innovation lab, Guangzhou as a trade powerhouse, and Macau as a tourism and cultural bridge. Together, they reflect the dynamism of China’s growth and its deepening engagement with the world.”
16. What does Adam Xu want to stress in Paragraph 3?
A. The favorable conditions in PRDA.
B. The benefits of top-down plans in China.
C. The speed of carrying out the plan.
D. The flow of people, information and money.
17. What is the unique challenge in PRDA?
A. The physical barriers. B. Different legal systems.
C. The cultural differences. D. The local governments’ support.
18. Why does Xu attach importance to the integration?
A. It sharpens city competition.
B. It strengthens global cooperation.
C It shows China’s development vitality.
D. It enhances cross-border efficiency.
19. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Potentials and Difficulties of Integrating PRDA
B. The Problems Facing China’s Newly Announced Plans
C. The Advantages of Integrating the Other Two Areas
D. Different Legal Systems in Hong Kong and Macau
