外刊阅读——学会地道英语摆脱手机依赖——回归真实生活
What object has the magic ability to provide you with a whole new world, where you can read books,send messages or chat online? The answer is your handphone.
Clearly, the handphone satisfies all our wants and needs, leaving us desiring more. According to a survey report by Connected Life, Singaporean youths spend an average of 3.4 hours a day on their phones.This may not seem like a big number to you, but think: what could you do in three hours? Cycling at the park with your family; reviewing your work. Phone addiction must come to a full stop today. How?
One way to stop addiction is to download some apps to track the time you spend on your phone daily.You will find many mobile apps that help track the exact length of time you spend on your phone, telling you if you run over time. Each day you can start afresh with a new goal, with a new sense of what you need to do and what you do not.
Another method is to keep your phone off and to place it out of sight. When your phone is off, you will be unable to check it so often. Although there may be a strong desire for your phone, keep in mind the many different tasks you need to do instead and work on them. When you feel like turning it on,smack your hand and tell yourself firmly,“Later!”
In short, the most effective way is to busy yourself with other activities and push the thought about wasting valuable time on your handphone out of your mind. After all, these joys are only short-term, and will be your regret in the long run. Now is the time to lock your handphone and unlock your life. Live in this world, full of hopes and dreams, beauty and wonders. Cherish your youth while you can. You do not want to live with regret.

时文阅读——讲好中国故事 世界上“最害羞的”花
Chinese scientists have discovered four kinds of Gentiana (龙胆属) on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau(青藏高原), whose flowers can close within seconds after being touched, making them the most sensitive flowers in the world, according to a recently published study.
“The flowers disappeared quickly in front of you,” said Dai Can, one of the scientists who led the study. Some people on Chinese social media said the flowers are the“shyest” in the world. The rapid movement of petals has always been interesting to scientists and nature lovers, as unlike animals, plants are usually static.
Leaves of carnivorous plants can react to touch. Before the Gentiana discoveries, the only known plant to display such behavior was the sundew (茅膏菜) plant. Its green leaves can curl up within 2 to10 minutes after being touched by a fly. It takes between 4 and 6 days for the leaf to digest the fly it catches.
However, the four kinds of Gentiana take 7 to 210 seconds to close their petals, making them the most sensitive and fast-reacting flowers in the world, the study said.
The flowers were discovered in 2020 near a lake in Nagchu, Xizang Autonomous Region.
The Gentiana's flower could protect itself from repeated visits by bumblebees that have a large body,the study said. Another explanation could be that the plant encourages bumblebees to transfer pollen among more flowers, because a closed flower would show them that it has already been visited and the bees should look for another flower. Wang Qingfeng, a researcher at Wuhan Botanical Garden, said both should be examined further in future studies.
Word BanK
l. sensitive /'sensətɪv/ adj.敏感的 2. petal /' petl/n.花瓣 3. carnivorous / ka:'nɪvərəs/ adj.食肉的
4. digest /daɪ'dʒest/ v.消化 5. transfer /træns'fɜː/ v.使转移 6. pollen /'pɒlən/ n.花粉
