IT aims to highlights ts the importance of good sleep and raise awareness of how sleep determines our everyday lives. Now a world first study from the university of south australia shows that increased physical activities during the day improve sleep quality and reduce tightness. Emphasizing the importance of exercise for a good night's rest, the study found that children and adults with higher levels of physical activity have Better sleep quality. In general, adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep at night, but a recent survey found that on workdays, only twenty one percent of them really get a full eight hours of sleep. For teenagers, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours per night. However, twenty seven percent of people throughout the world have sleep problems. Now there are over eighty kinds of sleep disorders, and most people know little about their danger. So for our good life and work is necessary for us to realize the importance of sleep and try to have a good sleep word. Sleep day is held on much the twenty first every year.

B Last spring, my neighbor Donna and I, both in our seventies, spent several hours in the glorious sunshine enjoying the new season. When it was time to sit down and relax, Donna pulled out her red metal chair from her garage (车库), and I sat on an overturned plastic bucket (桶). It was fun to catch up on the news that we had missed during the long winter indoors. However, over the next few days, it turned out that we needed more than a chair and a bucket which were not quite comfortable. Donna decided we needed a bench. After dismissing unsuitable options from local stores, she found a perfect one online. The next day it arrived. Excitedly, she opened the box and started putting it together. We proudly high-fived each other as the pieces joined up and the bench started to look like one. After a few minutes’ assistance from a neighbour, it was complete. What’s more, it was the perfect fit for two 70-somethings to carry on late afternoon chats. Soon, the bench attracted other neighbors. One day, someone called out from the sidewalk, “What do you do on that bench?” Quick-thinking Donna called back, “It’s our ‘Thinking Bench’! We think about important things happening in our lives.” Then, the name gradually developed—after one neighbor sat alone deep in thought, he declared it a “Decision-Making Bench”; another time, when Donna was caught napping(打盹), she insisted she was “meditating (冥想) ”, adding yet another name. Last fall, with the temperature falling, we came to the end of sitting outdoors. We were faced with one dilemma—what to do about it in the winter? Well, we sat down and thought and meditated and decided to put it in Donna’s garage for the winter. When I glimpsed it a few times over the next months, the bench sat lonely, holding empty flower pots, and some flat, old boxes. But now after a long winter, spring flowers are ready to bloom in the warm sunshine, and we neighbours are ready to welcome “The Bench” back into our lives. 24. Donna decided to replace the chair and bucket to _________. A. lighten the carrying load B. attract more neighbours C. get better seating for chats D. adapt to warmer weather 25. How did the bench get its various names? A. From items placed on it. B. From seasonal discussions. C. From users’ activities on it. D. From Donna’s creative ideas. 26. Why are pots and boxes mentioned in the last paragraph? A. To suggest the flowers would soon be planted. B. To show the bench was not serving its purpose. C. To describe the bench’s practical use in winter. D. To explain why the bench needed winter storage. 27. What does “The Bench” represent by the story’s end? A. A reminder of the past summer. B. A solution to the aging problem. C. A memory of a valued online order. D. A symbol of community bonds. C Imagine a future where the most powerful computers aren’t made of silicon chips, but are grown from living cells. This is the ambitious goal of synthetic(合成) biology, and a team from MIT has just taken a groundbreaking step. They have successfully engineered common baker’s yeast(酵母) cells to perform basic computational operations, effectively turning them into tiny, self-reproducing biological computers. Traditional computers process information using a binary(二进制) code of 0s and 1s, represented by electrical currents. The MIT team’s system, however, works differently. They redesigned the yeast’s genetic circuits so that specific combinations of chemicals act as “input” signals. When the yeast cell detects these chemical clues, it triggers a chain of internal gene expression, ultimately leading to a visible “output”—for example, the cell giving off a green light under a microscope to signal a “YES” answer, or remaining dull for a “NO”. This achievement, published in Science, is revolutionary for several reasons. First, these biological computers are incredibly energy-efficient, running on the same sugar nutrients the yeast uses to grow. Second, they are self-assembling and self-repairing, properties no silicon-based machine possesses. Most importantly, they can operate in complex, liquid environments inside the body or in ecosystems, where traditional electronics fail. The immediate use lies in smart diagnostics(诊断). Imagine taking in a capsule containing these engineered yeast cells. They could travel through your body, detect specific disease markers, and produce a clear visual signal in your waste, offering a cheap and safe diagnostic tool. In the longer term, such “wetware” computers could monitor environmental pollution or even direct the behavior of future living machines. Of course, significant challenges remain. The “calculation” speed of cells is currently far slower than that of electronic computers, and designing reliable, complex genetic circuits is immensely difficult. Yet, this research lights the path to a future where computation is smoothly woven into the fabric of life itself. 28. How does the biological computer indicate its output? A. By giving off an observable signal. B. By detecting specific chemical clues. C. By activating gene expression chains. D. By using a combination of chemicals. 29. What powers the biological computer? A. Sugar nutrients that support yeast growth. B. A capsule containing engineered yeast cells. C. The process of assembling and repairing itself. D. Electrical energy generated by genetic circuits. 30. What might challenge the development of biological computers? A. Finding a more energetic organism. B. Overcoming major ethical concerns. C. Improving genetic engineering design. D. Developing faster electronic computers. 31. Which of the following is the best title for this article? A. A Brighter Future: How Yeast Will Diagnose Disease B. Encode Information: The Making of a Bio-Supercomputer C. The End of Silicon: Why Living Computers Are Taking Over D. Compute Differently: Engineering Cells to Process Information D Once living in our backyards, many pets—for better and for worse—have now become spoiled “fur babies”, enjoying constant attention, special treatment, and comforts once reserved for human babies. Many see this as harmless fun, but the increasing tendency to treat pets as “children” can have severe health and welfare outcomes for the animals involved. The pet-to-fur-baby evolution can be attributed to many things, including overemphasis on the human-animal bond, ignorance of animals’ biological needs, irresistible consumerism and showing off. The principal causes and outcomes of fur babyism have intensified and spread all over the world. Evidence for this is inescapable and goes beyond the availability of clothes for birthdays, festivals and so on. Strollers(婴儿车), jewellery, nappies, nail polish, birthday cakes and shoes are now available for the modern fur baby, as are “gold standard” veterinary(兽医) treatments. The adverse health effects of fur babyism are well documented. Take strollers for dogs: while potentially useful for animals with disabilities, their overuse in other dogs can lead to weakening of muscles, joint damage and obesity. Restricting the fur baby’s movement limits its natural ability to explore, mark territory and interact with environmental features, such as others of its species, leading to fear and anxiety. Given these potential health and welfare risks, one would expect veterinary experts to take a leading role in opposing the “fur baby” phenomenon. Oddly, attitudes among veterinarians vary widely—some criticize the trend while others support it and even profit from it. The latter is troubling because over-treatment may further harm animal welfare without necessarily improving health. Owner’ love for their pets is understandable, but must be balanced by prioritizing the animals’ interests. What is far less acceptable is the vet who cashes in on an owner’s misguided love for their pet to conduct unnecessary, painful and expensive tests and procedures on an animal that cannot give its permission. All caregivers should reflect on the suffering that may arise when animals are treated inappropriately: that is, as children rather than dogs or cats. And vets chasing the fur baby trend should know better. 32.Which example best illustrates fur babyism? A. Training pets to follow basic commands. B. Taking pets to the vet only when they are ill. C. Celebrating pets’ birthday with a special treat. D. Providing pets with daily food and clean water. 33.What does the underlined word “adverse” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Lasting. B. Negative. C. Surprising. D. Significant. 34.Why do some vets support the “fur baby” trend? A. They value the bond with animals. B. They profit from the pet-spoiling craze. C. They show concern for animal welfare. D. They think pets should be treated as kids. 35. What might the author agree with? A. All veterinary treatments are unnecessary for fur babies. B. The fur baby trend will soon disappear with vets’ opposition. C. People’s love for pets should be based on animals’ real needs. D. Pet-owner relationship should be weakened to avoid fur babyism. 第二节（共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In today’s hyper-connected world, most of us are flooded by an ocean of messages and social media feeds(动态), from the moment we wake up to the instant we close our eyes. It’s not just a matter of convenience or novelty anymore—a fixation on screens has become our habit, a necessity, and even an addiction. ____36____ Constant engagement not only consumes our time, but also steals us something far more important: peace of mind.  Silence is as critical to mental health as vitamins are to physical well-being. People are particular about what foods they put in their bodies: whether organic, vegetarian, or fat-free. ____37____ The mental junk we absorb daily can be arguably more harmful than the occasional cheeseburger or donut. The never-ending flood of sensory input taxes the brain’s limited attention resources, leaving little room for deep thinking, reflection, or creativity.  ____38____ Quiet time helps the brain relax, sort through what it has taken in, and regain lost mental energy. As American artist Leonard Koren suggests in his book Wabi-Sabi, silence can be “an emptiness full of possibilities,” a space where creativity and clarity emerge.  Adding moments of quiet to your daily routine doesn’t require dramatic changes. ____39____ Better yet, research shows that brief exposure to nature, like a walk in the woods, lowers stress levels, reduces blood pressure, and sharpens focus. These benefits occur because green spaces and natural soundscapes provide a much-needed break from today’s busy, stressful world.  Digital life crowds out silence, making simply sitting in silence almost unthinkable—yet the very moments of stillness are what our minds really need. They let us listen to our thoughts, reflect on our experiences, and connect with ourselves in a way that is impossible in the noise of modern life. ____40____   A. But rarely do we ask ourselves: at what cost? B. So, shouldn’t we make laws requiring quiet time every day? C. It can be as simple as pausing 30 seconds to watch clouds. D.
