For the upcoming school year, Mira Costa High School offers students a wide variety of educational travel experiences. These trips aim to broaden students’ global views and provide meaningful learning chances outside the classroom. Organized by school departments, these trips take place throughout the year and are supported by academic teachers and extracurricular programs.
Spring Break in Japan
Scheduled from April 4 to 11, 2026, this trip is led by Spanish teacher Nancy Geczi, who has offered international student programs since the early 1990s. The detailed plan covers Tokyo, Kyoto, Kamakura, Nara, and Osaka. Students will deeply experience Japanese culture by learning about local traditions. Geczi points out the importance of experiencing a new culture using all five senses. There are only 20 places left for this trip. Students who are interested should go to Room 72 to get registration brochures.
Model United Nations (MUN)
Under the guidance of Annie Choi, the MUN program continues its tradition of competitive travel. While the exact destinations for the coming year are being decided, common places for delegates include Washington D. C., New York, and many other international cities.

I was standing in line at the grocery store, scrolling through my phone, impatient to get home after a long day of teaching. Ahead of me stood an elderly man in a faded grey coat. His hands trembled slightly as he counted out coins onto the counter.
“I’m sorry,” he whispered to the cashier, his voice thin and shaky. “I thought I had enough.”
The cashier, a young woman who looked equally tired, sighed. “You’re short by five dollars, sir. Do you want to put something back?”
People behind me became impatient. The old man looked at his things: a carton of milk, a loaf of bread, a dozen eggs, and a small box of chocolate cookies. He slowly reached for the cookies. “I... I don’t need these. They were for my grandson, but...”
I could see how embarrassed he was. Without thinking twice, I walked forward and paid with my card. “I’ll pay for it,” I said. “Please keep the cookies.”
The man froze. He looked at me, his watery blue eyes wide with shock. “No, Miss, I couldn’t...”
“It’s fine,” I smiled, hoping to ease his worry. “Consider it a gift for your grandson.”
He tried to speak but choked up. He simply nodded, took his bag, and waited for me outside. When I walked out, he grabbed my hand. “You don’t know what this means. My pension (养老金) hasn’t arrived yet, and tomorrow is his birthday. Thank you.”
A week later, I was back at the same store. As I walked down the passage, a little boy ran up to me, holding a familiar box of chocolate cookies. Behind him was the old man, smiling happily. “He wanted to share one with you,” the man said.
That chocolate cookie tasted better than any fancy dessert I’d ever had. It tasted like connection. It tasted like hope.

You can’t help waking up your teenagers for fear of them wasting their day, but allowing them to sleep longer on weekends may actually be of benefit to their mental health. This is the conclusion of a study by researchers at the University of Oregon and the State University of New York Upstate Medical University, which found that young people aged 16-24 who caught up on lost sleep during the weekend had a significantly lower risk of being depressive.
In the study, participants reported their usual bedtimes and wake-up times on both weekdays and weekends, allowing researchers to work out their “weekend catch-up sleep” — the difference between average weekend sleep and weekday sleep. Each subject was also asked about their emotional well-being. Researchers found teenagers and young adults who made up for lost sleep on weekends showed a lower risk of being depressive.
The scientists recommend that teenagers get between 8 and 10 hours of sleep every night, but agree that perfect sleep schedules are often unrealistic for teens considering school, homework, extracurricular activities, social lives and — for many — part-time jobs. Biology plays a major role in the problem of lack of sleep among teenagers. During the teenage years, circadian rhythms — the body’s internal clock — move later, making it harder for teens to fall asleep early. “Instead of getting up early in the morning, you’re going to become more of a night owl,” Casement, the lead author of the study, explained. “And sleep onset keeps holding over until age 18 to 20. After that, you will get up early as usual again.”
“Depression is one of the leading causes of disability among people aged 16 to 24,” Casement noted. In this context, disability refers broadly to damaged daily functioning, including difficulty in attending school or work, frequent absences or lateness. “It makes that age range of particular interest in trying to understand risk factors for being depressive and how those might relate to delivery of interventions (干预措施),” Casement added.
8. How did the researchers measure “weekend catch-up sleep”?
A. By emotional asking. B. By direct comparison.
C. By habit observation. D. By time management.
9. What prevents teenagers from getting enough sleep on weekdays?
A. Lack of awareness. B. Early parent waking.
C. Late night preference. D. Body clock change.
10. What can we learn from Casement’s opinion from the last paragraph?
A. Body clock worsens depression. B. Depression is common in young adults.
C. Young depression needs targeted help. D. Weekend sleep cures depression.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Sleep Loss: A Hidden Risk for Teenagers
B. Tough Choice: Studying or Weekend Sleep
C. Body Clock: Teen Sleep Patterns Explained
D. Weekend Sleep: A Benefit for Mental Health
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍俄勒冈大学和纽约州立大学上州医科大学的研究发现,16 - 24岁的年轻人在周末补觉可显著降低抑郁风险,阐述青少年因生物钟变化难以在工作日获得充足睡眠,强调了解青少年抑郁风险因素并给予针对性帮助的重要性。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“In the study, participants reported their usual bedtimes and wake-up times on both weekdays and weekends, allowing researchers to work out their “weekend catch-up sleep” — the difference between average weekend sleep and weekday sleep(在这项研究中,参与者报告了他们平日和周末的通常就寝时间和起床时间,这使得研究人员能够计算出他们的“周末补觉时间”——即周末平均睡眠时间与平日睡眠时间的差值)”可知,研究人员是通过直接对比平日和周末的睡眠时间来衡量“周末补觉时间”的。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据据第三段“During the teenage years, circadian rhythms — the body’s internal clock — move later, making it harder for teens to fall asleep early(在青少年时期,昼夜节律——身体的内部时钟——会延迟,这使得青少年更难早睡)”可知,是生物钟的变化导致青少年在工作日难以获得足够的睡眠。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““Depression is one of the leading causes of disability among people aged 16 to 24,” Casement noted. In this context, disability refers broadly to damaged daily functioning, including difficulty in attending school or work, frequent absences or lateness. “It makes that age range of particular interest in trying to understand risk factors for being depressive and how those might relate to delivery of interventions (干预措施),” Casement added.(Casement指出:“抑郁症是 16 至 24 岁人群致残的主要原因之一。” 在本文语境中,残疾广义上指日常生活功能受损,包括难以正常上学或工作、频繁缺勤、迟到等情况。 Casement补充道:“这也使得该年龄段极具研究价值,有助于我们探究抑郁症的各类风险因素,以及这些因素与干预措施的实施之间存在怎样的关联。”)”可知,Casement认为青少年抑郁问题需要针对性的帮助。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“You can’t help waking up your teenagers for fear of them wasting their day, but allowing them to sleep longer on weekends may actually be of benefit to their mental health. This is the conclusion of a study by researchers at the University of Oregon and the State University of New York Upstate Medical University, which found that young people aged 16-24 who caught up on lost sleep during the weekend had a significantly lower risk of being depressive.(你总忍不住叫醒自家青少年,生怕他们虚度一天光阴,但周末允许他们多睡一会儿,其实对心理健康大有裨益。 这是俄勒冈大学与纽约州立大学上州医科大学研究人员得出的结论:研究发现,16 至 24 岁的年轻人若能在周末补回缺失的睡眠,患上抑郁症的风险会显著降)”文章开篇点明周末补觉对16 - 24岁年轻人心理健康有益这一研究结论,接着阐述相关研究内容及青少年睡眠不足原因,所以“Weekend Sleep: A Benefit for Mental Health(周末睡眠:对心理健康有益)”最适合作为文章标题。

As the world’s need for electronics grows ever bigger, the other side of the coin — e-waste — is raising alarms. Most of the e-waste was sent to landfills or burned, with possible negative influences on the environment and human health. There’s also an amazing economic loss, as $ 62 billion-worth of recoverable resources are lost.
With e-waste rising five times faster than recycling rates, new solutions to the problem can’t come soon enough. Aquafade could be one — a fully water-dissolving plastic (可溶于水的塑料) that dissolves completely in about six hours when placed in water. It could be used to pack electronics and dissolved when the electronic is no longer wanted, making it easier to recycle the most valuable parts and reducing the amount of e-waste. “For most electronic products, when they’re being recycled, it’s the disassembly (拆卸) that’s the real trouble, and really needs a large amount of human resources,” said Samuel Wangsaputra, one of the inventors of Aquafade.
“One night I was doing the dishes, and I was looking at a dishwasher bag,” Wangsaputra said, attracted by the water-dissolving film. “And I thought, where does the film go? So I tried one, just in water, and it fully disappeared.” And now Wangsaputra has found a material called Aquafade. It is only applied to the outer shell, making the product water resistant (有抵抗力的) up to five meters for 30 minutes. “But once you take off just one part from the product and you put it in water. Five to six hours later, it will dilute, and what’s left is milky water and the most valuable parts of the electronics,” said Wangsaputra.
The first commercial application for Aquafade is likely to be as the casing for LED wristbands worn at concerts. While they are currently more focused on single-use electronics, they would eventually like to see Aquafade shells used on all kinds of devices. For now, Aquafade is double the cost of regular plastics, but Wangsaputra said wholesale production will make it cheaper.
12. What does the author mainly discuss in the first paragraph?
A. The new solution to e-waste. B. The recycling process of electronics.
C. Different types of plastics. D. The economic loss caused by e-waste.
13. What does Aquafade help save in the recycling process of electronics?
A. The labor. B. The cost. C. The time. D. The material.
14. What does the underlined word “dilute” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Spread out. B. Break down. C. Hold off. D. Mix up.
15. What is Samuel Wangsaputra’s attitude toward the future of Aquafade?
A. Doubtful. B. Cautious. C. Positive. D. Hopeless.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】全球电子垃圾激增,危害环境且造成经济损失。新型水溶塑料Aquafade可简化电子设备回收、节省人力,虽目前成本偏高,但未来应用前景广阔。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“As the world’s need for electronics grows ever bigger, the other side of the coin — e-waste — is raising alarms. Most of the e-waste was sent to landfills or burned, with possible negative influences on the environment and human health. There’s also an amazing economic loss, as $ 62 billion-worth of recoverable resources are lost. (随着全球对电子产品的需求日益增长,与此相伴而生的另一问题——电子废弃物——也引发了警报。大部分电子废弃物被送入垃圾填埋场或被焚烧,这可能对环境和人类健康产生负面影响。此外,还造成了巨大的经济损失,因为价值620亿美元的可回收资源被浪费掉了。)”可知,作者在第一段主要讨论了电子废弃物造成的经济损失。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段““For most electronic products, when they’re being recycled, it’s the disassembly (拆卸) that’s the real trouble, and really needs a large amount of human resources,” said Samuel Wangsaputra, one of the inventors of Aquafade. (“对于大多数电子产品而言,在进行回收处理时,真正棘手的问题在于拆解过程,而这确实需要大量的人力资源。”水溶塑料的发明者之一塞缪尔·瓦桑萨普图拉说道。)”可知,在电子产品的回收过程中,Aquafade 能够帮助节省劳动力。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文““One night I was doing the dishes, and I was looking at a dishwasher bag,” Wangsaputra said, attracted by the water-dissolving film. “And I thought, where does the film go? So I tried one, just in water, and it fully disappeared.” (“有一天晚上我在洗碗,正看着一个洗碗机的袋子时,被那层能溶解水的薄膜吸引住了。”瓦桑苏普塔说道,“然后我就想,那层薄膜会去哪儿呢?于是我就试着把它放进水里,结果它完全消失了。”)”可知,前文介绍该塑料可溶于水,放入水中五到六小时就分解溶解,故划线词意思是“分解”。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“For now, Aquafade is double the cost of regular plastics, but Wangsaputra said wholesale production will make it cheaper. (目前,阿夸法德的生产成本是普通塑料的两倍,但瓦桑普拉塔表示,大规模生产后其成本将会降低。)”可知,塞缪尔·瓦姆萨普图拉对阿夸法德公司的未来持积极态度。

【解析】
【导语】介绍了国际妇女节的相关信息。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:每年3月8日庆祝的国际妇女节,是一个全球性的节日,旨在表彰女性在社会、经济、文化和政治方面所取得的成就。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。International Women’s Day与celebrate之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词celebrated作后置定语,修饰International Women’s Day,表被动和完成。
【37题详解】
考查形容词。句意:每年3月8日庆祝的国际妇女节,是一个全球性的节日,旨在表彰女性在社会、经济、文化和政治方面所取得的成就。此处与social、economic、cultural并列,修饰名词achievements,应用形容词political,意为“政治的”。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意:它还呼吁采取行动,加快实现性别平等。根据空前的gender可知,此处应用名词equality,意为“平等”,作speed up的宾语,equality是不可数名词。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:设立这个特殊节日的想法始于20世纪初,当时女性为争取工作、投票和获得公平待遇的权利而斗争。此处为非限制性定语从句,先行词是the early 1900s,指时间,在从句中作时间状语,所以用关系副词when引导。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意:如今,它在全世界被广泛庆祝。此处修饰动词celebrated,应用副词widely,意为“广泛地”。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:从母亲、教师到科学家、领导人,女性在社会中发挥着至关重要的作用。from...to...为固定短语,意为“从……到……”,所以填to。
【42题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:我们歌颂像玛丽·居里这样的先驱者,以及像为女孩教育而奋斗的马拉拉·尤萨夫扎伊这样的英雄。根据语境及heroes可知,此处应用名词复数pioneers,意为“先驱者”,与heroes并列。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:它提醒我们,仍需努力构建一个无论性别,每个人都享有平等机会和尊重的世界。此处应用动词不定式作后置定语,修饰名词work,work to do表示“要做的工作”,此处表示为构建这样一个世界要做的工作。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意:作为学生,我们可以向伟大的女性学习,大声反对不公平现象,并珍视我们身边的女性。learn from great women、speak up against unfairness和value the women around us是并列关系,所以用连词and连接。
【45题详解】
考查冠词。句意:我们共同努力,能够为所有人构建一个平等、包容且光明的未来。此处表示泛指“一个平等、包容且光明的未来”,equal是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词an。
第四部分 任务型阅读(共两节,满分20分)
阅读下面短文,并根据各部分要求作答。
I work in a foreign capital company. Although the company is a little far from my home, I have my own car, so I drive myself to and from work every day. Tom is my good colleague. Sometimes we work overtime in the company and get off work together. He often goes home by bus.
One day, it was cold outside. It seemed that a snowstorm would be coming. As usual, Tom and I worked overtime in the company. After finishing the work, we were ready to go home together. Tom went to wait for the bus, and I went to drive, but today it snowed harder and harder, and the bus stopped. So I was going to give Tom a lift.
I was heading home after giving Tom a lift. I took a shortcut to get home early as the snowstorm was coming.
Then the snowstorm started and was coming down fast, within minutes I was in a white out. The windows were frozen and getting covered with snow, so I slowed down and rolled down my driver’s side window, thinking I could better follow the road edge and keep to a straight line. But really, I had no clue where I was. I was confused and didn’t know what to do.
At that time, I stopped and kept the car running to stay warm. I took a deep breath and was deep in thought. Later I called 911 and asked them for help. However, the operator told me that the weather was too bad to do me a favor and asked me to wait things out for the night.
The call left me in panic. “Breathe,” I told myself. Tom knew what happened to me. Suddenly, an idea occurred to him. “Maybe you could ask for help online and there must be some people living nearby your location and they can show you the right direction,” he told me on the phone.

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述作者在外国资本公司工作,雪天开车搭载同事Tom回家时遭遇暴风雪被困,拨打911求助无果后,在Tom的建议下尝试线上求助的经历。
【46题详解】
1.考查非谓语动词。句意:在一家外资企业工作,我每天开车上班。此处作句首状语,表示“上班”,选work,主语I与work为主动关系,用现在分词形式Working。
2.考查动词时态。句意:一个寒冷的日子,一场暴风雪即将来临。表示“即将到来”,由was可知为过去进行时,选approach,用现在分词approaching。
3.考查动词时态。句意:送Tom一程后,我决定走一条更直接的路线,希望能早点到。表示“决定”,结合上下文过去时态,选decide,用过去式decided。
4.考查名词。句意:很快,暴风雪猛烈袭来。表示“暴风雪”,选snowstorm,作主语。
5.考查动词时态语态。句意:我的窗户冻住了,被雪覆盖。表示“覆盖”选cover,主语windows与cover为被动关系,且时态为一般过去时,用were covered。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意:我降低车窗想看清路边,很快就迷路了。此处作句首状语,表示“降低”选lower,主语I与lower为主动关系,用现在分词Lowering。
7.考查名词。句意:我拨打了911,接线员建议我就在我的车里等暴风雨过去。结合语境,此处表示“车辆”,作宾语,选vehicle。
8.考查形容词(词性转换)。句意:这个电话让我很害怕。此处作宾语补足语,用fear的形容词形式fearful,表示“感到害怕的”。
9.考查固定短语。句意:我强迫自己深呼吸,努力冷静下来。结合语境,此处表示“冷静下来”,选calm down,不定式to后接动词原形。
10.考查动词。句意:就在这时,Tom回电话,建议我转而在网上寻求帮助。suggest后接宾语从句时,从句用(should) do结构,此处表示“寻求”,选seek,用原形。
【47题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The call left me in panic. “Breathe,” I told myself. Tom knew what happened to me. Suddenly, an idea occurred to him. “Maybe you could ask for help online and there must be some people living nearby your location and they can show you the right direction,” he told me on the phone.(这个电话让我陷入恐慌。“深呼吸,”我告诉自己。Tom知道我发生了什么事。突然,他想到了一个主意。“也许你可以在网上求助,附近一定有住在你位置附近的人,他们可以给你指明正确的方向,”他在电话里告诉我。)”可知,作者此前拨打911求助无果,陷入恐慌,而Tom提出了线上求助的新办法,能让作者看到解决困境的希望,因此作者会感到如释重负、充满希望。
【48题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Tom的建议“Maybe you could ask for help online and there must be some people living nearby your location and they can show you the right direction(也许你可以在网上求助,附近一定有住在你位置附近的人,他们可以给你指明正确的方向)”,可推断作者接下来会发布自己的位置,说明遭遇暴风雪被困的情况,向附近居民求助。
【49题详解】
推理判断题。结合文中Tom的建议“Maybe you could ask for help online and there must be some people living nearby your location and they can show you the right direction(也许你可以在网上求助,附近一定有住在你位置附近的人,他们可以给你指明正确的方向)”以及作者被困的处境,合理推断会有当地居民看到求助信息后联系作者,确认位置后开车过来引导作者的车穿过暴风雪,在其帮助下,最终作者在天气变得更糟之前安全回到了家中。

Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】One possible version:
Dear Chris,
You mentioned that some festival customs are changing — indeed, they are. Take the Spring Festival as an example. Traditionally, people set off firecrackers to celebrate. However, this custom is now changing.
In many cities, real fireworks have been replaced by electronic displays or cultural performances, which are safer and eco-friendlier. The changes mainly result from growing environmental awareness and government policies to reduce pollution and fire risks.
Personally, I welcome these changes, believing that they show the resilience of our culture. A festival’s true spirit lies in family reunion and gratitude, not in the noise or smoke.
Yours,
Li Hua

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
For the upcoming school year, Mira Costa High School offers students a wide variety of educational travel experiences. These trips aim to broaden students’ global views and provide meaningful learning chances outside the classroom. Organized by school departments, these trips take place throughout the year and are supported by academic teachers and extracurricular programs.
Spring Break in Japan
Scheduled from April 4 to 11, 2026, this trip is led by Spanish teacher Nancy Geczi, who has offered international student programs since the early 1990s. The detailed plan covers Tokyo, Kyoto, Kamakura, Nara, and Osaka. Students will deeply experience Japanese culture by learning about local traditions. Geczi points out the importance of experiencing a new culture using all five senses. There are only 20 places left for this trip. Students who are interested should go to Room 72 to get registration brochures.
Model United Nations (MUN)
Under the guidance of Annie Choi, the MUN program continues its tradition of competitive travel. While the exact destinations for the coming year are being decided, common places for delegates include Washington D. C., New York, and many other international cities. These experiences help students move beyond their comfort zones and greatly improve their ability to speak in public.
Winter Eco-Adventure in Central America
Happening from December 27 to January 4, this trip to Panama and Costa Rica is led by math teacher Nick Scheftic. It combines natural eco-sights with physical activities, such as swimming in the sea, surfing, and climbing through the rainforest. Importantly, students on this trip have a special chance to get both high school and college credits.
Students who want to take part in these global trips are encouraged to attend information meetings and plan early, because many students are interested and the number of places is limited.
1. What can we know about the Spring Break in Japan?
A. It covers five Japanese cities. B. It will last for ten days.
C. It is fully booked now. D. It is led by a math teacher.
2. What advantage does the last trip offer?

I was standing in line at the grocery store, scrolling through my phone, impatient to get home after a long day of teaching. Ahead of me stood an elderly man in a faded grey coat. His hands trembled slightly as he counted out coins onto the counter.
“I’m sorry,” he whispered to the cashier, his voice thin and shaky. “I thought I had enough.”
The cashier, a young woman who looked equally tired, sighed. “You’re short by five dollars, sir. Do you want to put something back?”
People behind me became impatient. The old man looked at his things: a carton of milk, a loaf of bread, a dozen eggs, and a small box of chocolate cookies. He slowly reached for the cookies. “I... I don’t need these. They were for my grandson, but...”
I could see how embarrassed he was. Without thinking twice, I walked forward and paid with my card. “I’ll pay for it,” I said. “Please keep the cookies.”
The man froze. He looked at me, his watery blue eyes wide with shock. “No, Miss, I couldn’t...”
“It’s fine,” I smiled, hoping to ease his worry. “Consider it a gift for your grandson.”
He tried to speak but choked up. He simply nodded, took his bag, and waited for me outside. When I walked out, he grabbed my hand. “You don’t know what this means. My pension (养老金) hasn’t arrived yet, and tomorrow is his birthday. Thank you.”
A week later, I was back at the same store. As I walked down the passage, a little boy ran up to me, holding a familiar box of chocolate cookies. Behind him was the old man, smiling happily. “He wanted to share one with you,” the man said.
That chocolate cookie tasted better than any fancy dessert I’d ever had. It tasted like connection. It tasted like hope.
4. Why did the author want to get home quickly?
A. She was tired after a day of work. B. She was eager to meet her grandson.
C. She didn’t like shopping at that store. D. She needed to prepare for tomorrow’s class.
5. What made the old man choose to put the cookies back?
A. His own preference. B. Lack of money.
C. High price of the cookies. D. The cashier’s suggestion.
6. How did the old man feel when the author paid for the cookies?
A. Embarrassed and angry. B. Doubtful and cautious.
C. Surprised and grateful. D. Indifferent and calm.
7. What message does the text mainly want to convey?
A. Patience is a virtue in public. B. Kindness can create connections.
C. Elderly people need more pensions. D. Family bonds are the most valuable.
C
You can’t help waking up your teenagers for fear of them wasting their day, but allowing them to sleep longer on weekends may actually be of benefit to their mental health. This is the conclusion of a study by researchers at the University of Oregon and the State University of New York Upstate Medical University, which found that young people aged 16-24 who caught up on lost sleep during the weekend had a significantly lower risk of being depressive.
In the study, participants reported their usual bedtimes and wake-up times on both weekdays and weekends, allowing researchers to work out their “weekend catch-up sleep” — the difference between average weekend sleep and weekday sleep. Each subject was also asked about their emotional well-being. Researchers found teenagers and young adults who made up for lost sleep on weekends showed a lower risk of being depressive.
The scientists recommend that teenagers get between 8 and 10 hours of sleep every night, but agree that perfect sleep schedules are often unrealistic for teens considering school, homework, extracurricular activities, social lives and — for many — part-time jobs. Biology plays a major role in the problem of lack of sleep among teenagers. During the teenage years, circadian rhythms — the body’s internal clock — move later, making it harder for teens to fall asleep early. “Instead of getting up early in the morning, you’re going to become more of a night owl,” Casement, the lead author of the study, explained. “And sleep onset keeps holding over until age 18 to 20. After that, you will get up early as usual again.”
“Depression is one of the leading causes of disability among people aged 16 to 24,” Casement noted. In this context, disability refers broadly to damaged daily functioning, including difficulty in attending school or work, frequent absences or lateness. “It makes that age range of particular interest in trying to understand risk factors for being depressive and how those might relate to delivery of interventions (干预措施),” Casement added.
8. How did the researchers measure “weekend catch-up sleep”?
A. By emotional asking. B. By direct comparison.
C. By habit observation. D. By time management.
9. What prevents teenagers from getting enough sleep on weekdays?
A. Lack of awareness. B. Early parent waking.

As the world’s need for electronics grows ever bigger, the other side of the coin — e-waste — is raising alarms. Most of the e-waste was sent to landfills or burned, with possible negative influences on the environment and human health. There’s also an amazing economic loss, as $ 62 billion-worth of recoverable resources are lost.
With e-waste rising five times faster than recycling rates, new solutions to the problem can’t come soon enough. Aquafade could be one — a fully water-dissolving plastic (可溶于水的塑料) that dissolves completely in about six hours when placed in water. It could be used to pack electronics and dissolved when the electronic is no longer wanted, making it easier to recycle the most valuable parts and reducing the amount of e-waste. “For most electronic products, when they’re being recycled, it’s the disassembly (拆卸) that’s the real trouble, and really needs a large amount of human resources,” said Samuel Wangsaputra, one of the inventors of Aquafade.
“One night I was doing the dishes, and I was looking at a dishwasher bag,” Wangsaputra said, attracted by the water-dissolving film. “And I thought, where does the film go? So I tried one, just in water, and it fully disappeared.” And now Wangsaputra has found a material called Aquafade. It is only applied to the outer shell, making the product water resistant (有抵抗力的) up to five meters for 30 minutes. “But once you take off just one part from the product and you put it in water. Five to six hours later, it will dilute, and what’s left is milky water and the most valuable parts of the electronics,” said Wangsaputra.
The first commercial application for Aquafade is likely to be as the casing for LED wristbands worn at concerts. While they are currently more focused on single-use electronics, they would eventually like to see Aquafade shells used on all kinds of devices. For now, Aquafade is double the cost of regular plastics, but Wangsaputra said wholesale production will make it cheaper.
12. What does the author mainly discuss in the first paragraph?
A. The new solution to e-waste. B. The recycling process of electronics.
C. Different types of plastics. D. The economic loss caused by e-waste.
13. What does Aquafade help save in the recycling process of electronics?
A. The labor. B. The cost. C. The time. D. The material.
14. What does the underlined word “dilute” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Spread out. B. Break down. C. Hold off. D. Mix up.
15. What is Samuel Wangsaputra’s attitude toward the future of Aquafade?
A. Doubtful. B. Cautious. C. Positive. D. Hopeless.

第四部分 任务型阅读(共两节,满分20分)
阅读下面短文,并根据各部分要求作答。
I work in a foreign capital company. Although the company is a little far from my home, I have my own car, so I drive myself to and from work every day. Tom is my good colleague. Sometimes we work overtime in the company and get off work together. He often goes home by bus.
One day, it was cold outside. It seemed that a snowstorm would be coming. As usual, Tom and I worked overtime in the company. After finishing the work, we were ready to go home together. Tom went to wait for the bus, and I went to drive, but today it snowed harder and harder, and the bus stopped. So I was going to give Tom a lift.
I was heading home after giving Tom a lift. I took a shortcut to get home early as the snowstorm was coming.
Then the snowstorm started and was coming down fast, within minutes I was in a white out. The windows were frozen and getting covered with snow, so I slowed down and rolled down my driver’s side window, thinking I could better follow the road edge and keep to a straight line. But really, I had no clue where I was. I was confused and didn’t know what to do.
At that time, I stopped and kept the car running to stay warm. I took a deep breath and was deep in thought. Later I called 911 and asked them for help. However, the operator told me that the weather was too bad to do me a favor and asked me to wait things out for the night.
The call left me in panic. “Breathe,” I told myself. Tom knew what happened to me. Suddenly, an idea occurred to him. “Maybe you could ask for help online and there must be some people living nearby your location and they can show you the right direction,” he told me on the phone.
