Mobile phones should be kept from classrooms, the UK minister for schools has said. Nick Gibb said he had concerns about the effect that the phone was having on children, and also said the Government should introduce lessons for pupils on how to limit their screen time.
Mr Gibb said, “Schools obviously are free to set their own behaviour policies but my own view is that schools should ban （禁止）mobile telephones and smart phones inside school, and particularly inside classrooms. I believe very strongly that children should be limiting their own use at home. Every hour spent online and on a smart phone is an hour less talking to family, and it's an hour less exercise and it's an hour less sleep. And of course it is a lack of sleep that research is showing can have a damaging effect on a child's mental health.”
The parents are told that children will be asked to break off at least every two hours and avoid social media before bedtime. The UK would be following in the footsteps of European countries if schools were to introduce a ban, with French pupils being told to leave their smart phones at home when they returned from their summer holidays last year.
At the Festival of Education at Wellington College last summer, Professor Michael from America said that any sensible head would ban mobile phones. “It's far too distracting for children having mobile phones. Texting, playing games, all this takes place. Mobile phones go off in classrooms, disrupting lessons. Ban them. If children want to use a phone in an emergency they can use the school phone.”
24. What's Nick Gibb's attitude towards using mobile phone in school
A．Cautious.
B．Supportive.
C．Indifferent.
D．Disapproving.
25. What is one possible result of spending too much time online according to the text
A．An hour less exercise a week.
B．More effects on sleep quality.
C．Less communication with family.
D．An improvement in mental health.
26. Which country has asked students to leave their phones at home
A．UK.
B．New Zealand.
C．USA.
D．France.
27. What is the main idea of the text
A．Mobile Phones cause bad effects on our study.
B．Mobile phones should be banned from classrooms.
C．Parents should forbid their kids to use mobile phones.
D．Students can use mobile phones in case of emergency.

When you set a foot outside of your door to drop trash, go to a social event or go for a walk, thoughts like “I hope I don’t see anyone I know” or “please don’t talk to me” may run through your mind. I’ve also said such things to myself. Sometimes the last thing you want to do is to talk with someone, especially someone new.
Why do we go out of our ways to avoid people Do we think meeting new people is a waste of time Or are we just lazy, thinking that meeting someone new really is a trouble
Communication is the key to life. We have been told that many times. Take the past generations, like our parents, for example. They seem to take full advantage of that whole “communication” idea because they grew up talking face to face while Generation-Y grew up staring at screens. We spend hours of our days sitting on Facebook. We send messages to our friends and think about all of the things we want to say to certain people that we don’t have the courage to do in reality.
Nowadays, we are so caught up in our little circle of friends—our comfort zone. We love it that they laugh at our jokes, understand our feelings and can read our minds. Most importantly, they know when we want to be alone. They just get us.
Holding a conversation with someone new means agreeing with things that you don’t really believe and being someone you think they want you to be—it is, as I said before, a trouble. It takes up so much energy, and at some point or another, it is too tiring.
But meeting new people is important. Life is too short, so meet all the people you can meet, make the effort to go out and laugh. Remember, every “hello” leads to a smile—and a smile is worth a lot.
28. What do we learn about the author
A．He likes to meet someone new.
B．He feels stressed out lately.
C．He’s active in attending social events.
D．He used to be afraid of talking to others.
29. What’s the problem of Generation-Y in the author’s eyes
A．They rely on the Internet to socialize.
B．They are less confident in themselves.
C．They have difficulty in communicating.
D．They are unwilling to make new friends.
30. Why do many young people avoid meeting new people
A．They think it troublesome.
B．They are busy with their study.
C．They fear to disappoint their friends.
D．They want to do meaningful work.
31. Why does the author write the text
A．To stress the importance of friends.
B．To give tips on how to meet new people.
C．To encourage people to meet new people.
D．To display the disadvantages of Generation-Y.
D
Recent research reveals the harmful mental health effects caused by social media use, including increased rates of depression, anxiety, suicidal ( 与自杀相关的) tendencies and self-harm. Adolescents who spend more than three hours per day on social media face twice the risk of poor mental health outcomes.
Addictive feeds — designed to make use of personal data to intensify (增强) users’ content that will keep them on the platform for as long as possible — have dramatically raised the risk to young users’ well-being and made our children addicted to these social media outlets.
In the first seven years after addictive feeds were introduced, suicide rates for 10-to 14-year-old girls doubled and hospitalization for suicidal tendencies and attempts increased nearly twice for all adolescents.
Instead of responding to the problem, social media have made great efforts to keep and capture user engagement, and the results have been catastrophic. Beyond the direct harm of social media addiction, the collection of children’s data by these giant companies puts our kids at huge risk, leaving them vulnerable (易受伤害的) by having their location and other personal data tracked, shared and sold online. As a consequence, that data is at greater risk of falling into the wrong hands — including human traffickers, identity thieves and others who might prey on (坑害) young people.
We will not stand by (支持) and watch an arms race among social media mega-corporations (大型企业) over who can best profit from our children’s pain and addiction. That is why we should use and are using every tool at our fingertips to fight back against these damaging practices: from the courthouse to the statehouse.
32. What can we learn about addictive feeds
A．They are food that can easily satisfy people.
B．They are Internet content that can get people addicted.
C．They are kept on the platform just for a short period of time.
D．They are personal data stored on the Internet for convenience.
33. Which of the following best describes the author’s purpose in mentioning statistics(数据) such as “suicide rates for 10-to 14-year-old girls doubled”
A．To create an emotional response in the reader.
B．To show how effective social media has become at keeping users engaged.
C．To offer a balanced view of the effects of social media on young people.
D．To provide evidence that supports the argument about social media’s harmful effects.
34. Which word can best replace the underlined word “catastrophic” in paragraph 4
A．destructive
B．positive
C．unique
D．effective
35. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．It emphasizes the author’s support for social media companies.
B．It describes positive effects of social media on children’s well-being.
C．It explains how social media companies can address the mental health issues.
D．It calls for increased control on social media companies to protect young users.

Caught in a flood
Mary and her parents were downstairs in the living room. Mary was looking through the windows at the endless rain outside. It had been raining non-stop for three days. She had never seen a storm this bad. It was making her nervous. The wind roared and the rain beat on the roof and windows. Dad was listening to a weather report on the radio, while Mum was putting their important documents and disaster supplies into a bag.
“Mum, Dad,” said Mary suddenly, “I think we should leave here right away!”
“No,” said Dad. “It’s too late! The radio says the city has already been flooded.”
“We can drive our car through the floodwater! Let’s just leave! I’m really scared!” cried Mary.
“We can’t do that, honey,” explained Mum, “otherwise the moving water could wash the car away!”
Mary walked to the door. She was curious to see how much water there was outside. “Don’t open the door!” shouted Mum and Dad at the same time, “The water may flood in!”
Dad moved the dinner table against the door, in case the floodwater forced the door open. Mum waved to Mary to sit on the sofa. “Mary, don’t worry. Everything’s going to be OK,” she said softly, trying her best to comfort Mary. Her voice was calm, but Mary could tell she was worried too.
Without saying a single word, Dad walked to the sofa, sat down and hugged his wife and daughter. The sudden silence in the house seemed to make the wind and rain more frightening outside. What could they do
Para. 1: After a brief discussion, Mum and Dad made a decision.

Para. 1: After a brief discussion, Mum and Dad made a decision. They decided to move upstairs to the second floor together with emergency supplies. Dad blocked the door firmly before they headed upstairs. Then he used a flashlight to send out rescue signals through the window. Mum held Mary in her arms and kept talking to her to calm her down. Though the storm was still terrible outside, Mary felt much safer staying with her parents.
Para. 2: Finally, the rain stopped. The flood water slowly receded. Soon they heard rescuers’ voices outside. The whole family shouted for help loudly. Before long, rescuers arrived and took them to a safe shelter. Looking back at their house, Mary felt so thankful. She learned that staying calm and listening to parents is really important when facing natural disasters.
