B You get into bed after a long day and plan to spend a few minutes on your phone before sleeping. 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, so they could know when and how the kids used phones at night. 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 all their sleep time. The influence (影响) was larger when they played games or used more than one screen. “While the science guidebooks advise that there should be no screen time, 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 their phones 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. 4. What does the underlined word “monitor” mean in Paragraph 2? A. keep away from B. take care of C. watch carefully 5. What percentage of the kids used their phones while in bed? A. Less than 30%. B. More than 50%. C. Exactly 99%. 6. 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. 7. 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 more easily. C When Xiong Chuanfa, 37, blows a lovely tiger out of sugar in just minutes, kids look at him in surprise, thinking he is a magician. Xiong has been blowing sugar figurines (糖人) for 23 years. Blowing sugar figurines is a traditional Chinese art with a history of over 600 years. It has been listed as an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) for about 17 years. Every morning, Xiong prepares the sugar and drives to different markets in Nanchang to blow sugar figurines. He usually takes out a little sugar after heating it. Then he makes a ball with the sugar. Finally, he blows it into different shapes—a rabbit, a monkey, and even Ne Zha, one of the most popular cartoon movie characters. No matter how busy he is, he often spares time to teach young people helping them know more about the traditional Chinese art. Many kids show great interest in the art. Simon; a foreign student from Nanchang International School, found it hard to make sugar figurines lively. Thanks to Xiong’s help, Simon finally saw a horse slowly taking shape. Simon was really excited after learning about the art. “I just can’t believe the Chinese keep the traditional art so well here. I love it. I want to know more about it and help to spread (传播) Chinese culture all over the world,” he said. Xiong’s 9-year-old son often blows sugar balloons, just like what he used to do as a child. “Our family will pass on the intangible cultural heritage,” said Xiong. 8. What do we know about Xiong Chuanfa? A. He is a 37-year-old magician from China. B. He started blowing sugar figurines when he was 14. C. He teaches folk art in Nanchang International School. 9. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. How Xiong makes sugar figurines. B. Where Xiong usually works every day. C. What sugar shapes Xiong can make well. 10. What did Simon think of the traditional art? A. It was not popular. B. It was too difficult. C. It was well kept. 11. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Xiong and His Traditional Art of Sweet Blows B. A Magic Traditional Art and Chinese Culture C. Xiong’s Family and Sugar Figurine Skills 第二节 (共4小题；每小题2分, 满分8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。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Learning can be exciting when you follow your curiosity!

I love learning foreign languages. When I retired (退休) in 2018, I could already speak three foreign languages. At that time, my biggest wish was to learn a new one. Later, I watched a TV program about Chinese culture. I was so interested in it that I decided to learn Chinese. I found a cultural center in north London by accident. It offered Chinese language classes that fit my needs. In March 2019, I started my learning journey. Every Saturday, I left home at 5 a. m. and drove 3 hours to the center to attend classes. But this never stopped me. After class, I practiced a lot. Through learning, I fell in love with Chinese poems and even joined activities like poetry readings. I began to dream of visiting China one day. My Chinese teacher, Mr. Liu, always said, “It’s better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.” He advised me to take a trip to China. So in August 2024, I went to Xi’an with my classmates from the center. During the trip, I was the best at Chinese in our group, so I tried to act as an interpreter (口译员). I helped my classmates with many things, like asking the way and shopping in Chinese. This experience made me want to keep learning. People in the UK often say, “Learning is a lifelong pursuit (追求).” This means “It is never too late to learn.” I will keep studying Chinese and hope to be a lifelong learner. I believe it will bring more surprises to my life. 36. When did Jeff begin to learn Chinese? _________________________________________________ 37.
