“Don’t forget to study for the history test on Friday,” Mrs. Beville told the class.
That night, Julie opened her textbook and read it several times. It was difficult for her to learn all the facts and
dates.
“Need some help?” asked her older brother, Eric.
Julie handed him her textbook. “Test me.”
Eric took the book and read the questions, but Julie shook her head.
The following day, she decided to use library time to study. With her textbook open in front of her, she tried to
make sense of all the facts and dates. But it was useless.
She lowered her head and hid her face in the pages of the book. “Impossible!”
“Julie!”
Julie looked up. Maria, from her class, was seated at a nearby table.
“Want to study together?” Maria asked.
Julie picked up her things and joined Maria, who was sitting with some cards and colored pencils in front of her.
On each card was a colorful painting.
Julie looked confused. “I thought you were studying history.”
“This is how I study,” Maria said. “I like art, and the pictures help me recall facts. Sometimes memorization
isn’t enough, and I have to get creative.”
“I see,” said Julie, with interest.
“But right now, I’m having trouble answering this question.” She pointed to a line she’d written on the front of
a card. What would you call someone who lives in Flanders?
After looking up the answer “Fleming”, Julie had a thought. “If Maria could use her artistic skills to study, then
why couldn’t I use my own love of poems and wordplay?”
Julie said aloud, “See the flamingo home to Flanders!”
Maria was looking at her. “What does a flamingo have to do with it?” She stopped for a moment. “See the
flamingo home...See the Fleming go home to Flanders. Yes! A Fleming lives in Flanders. Perfect! This is a clever use
of words.”
Maria used a pink pencil to draw a flamingo on the back of the card. “Hey, that was pretty cool.”
“Thanks.” Julie smiled.

“Hey want to be study partners?” asked Maria.
“Certainly,” said Julie. Suddenly, studying didn’t seem so impossible after all.
24. When Julie studied alone in the library, she felt learning history was ________.
A. interesting B. hard C. useful D. surprising
25. How did Maria review history?
A. She drew pictures. B. She went over her notebook.
C. She read the textbook. D. She asked her brother for help.

Recently, some people have complained about the purposefully addictive (上瘾的) designs of smartphones and
social media, which make it hard for anyone to put them down, especially teens. Now, a new report in Emotion gives
facts that back up what these people said.
According to the report, young people’s life satisfaction and happiness have dropped since 2012, the year the
percentage of teens owning smartphones started increasing rapidly. The report also finds that teens’ psychological (心理
的) health gets worse the more hours a week they spend on screens.
Jean Twenge is the lead writer of the report. She graphed (制图) the connection between happiness and screen
activities, such as social media, texting, gaming, and video chats. She also graphed the connection between happiness
and non-screen activities, including sports, reading, and face-to-face communications. She called the relationship
between screen and non-screen activities “zero sum”—if you are doing one, it takes time away from the others.
Diane Tanman complains that her sons are like that. They are 11 and 15. They used to play games in fields, and it
made them happier. These days, her sons are more into online games. Many of the games have rewards (奖励) built
in to keep players coming back. “It’s just junk food for the brain,” Tanman said.
Ed Lazzara says his 12-year-old son Leo is a fan of video games. After playing a lot, Leo gets more upset and
uncomfortable. He wants his son to play fewer video games.
However, totally staying away from electronic devices (设备) doesn’t lead to happiness, either. Twenge and her
co-writers found that the happiest teens used electronic devices a little less than an hour daily. After a daily hour of
screen time, unhappiness rises in relation to increasing screen time.
Spending time in front of a screen is a normal part of being a teenager. Many schools require students to be
online and to use iPads or other devices to do their work. But teachers and parents have also complained that
technology can get in the way of learning when teens use their devices for things other than their studies.
第5页/共10页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司If we recognize how screen time influences young minds, we can help teens use technology better and protect
their psychological health in the process. Screen time is like ice cream. Sure, we can have some once in a while, but
it shouldn’t be part of our everyday lives.
27. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Screen time at home is not as beneficial as screen time at school.
B. Nearly an hour of screen time every day makes teens happiest.
C. Technology should be encouraged in classroom learning.
D. What teens do on the screen influences their happiness.
.
28 Why does the passage give the examples of families with teens?
A. To prove the bad effect of the addictive designs of electronic devices.
B. To show parents have little control over their teens’ screen time.
C. To compare different-aged teens’ feelings about screen use.
D. To explain why electronic devices make teens feel happy.
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Use of Electronic Devices: Should We Consider Teens’ Needs?
B. Teens’ Psychological Health: Why Is It Important?
C. Screen Time and Teens’ Study Performance
D. Screen Time and Teens’ Life Satisfaction

In today’s fast-paced world, research shows that more and more people are feeling “time poor”.
Time poverty can happen when work, social duties, and family responsibilities take up too much of a person’s
time, leaving little or no time for fun or personal interests. It can also happen when one feels like they are running
out of time to reach their goals or complete tasks. The Internet, mobile technology, and social media have allowed
people to experience and do many jobs in a single lifetime. The fear of missing out and the stress caused by it
increase the feeling of time poverty. Besides, we often say “yes” to any extra work. It could be to help your team or
your friends. But by saying ”yes” to everything, you are adding another task to an already full plate.
People who don’t have enough time fail to perform properly at work and remain stressed. Continuous stress
can harm mental health. Moreover, less quality (优质的) time with friends and family can make a person feel more
lonely.
So how can we stop being time poor? There are two ways.
Firstly, be intentional with your time. It may seem harmless to check your phone for 5 to 10 minutes every
hour, but this can add up to more than 90 minutes wasted every day just checking your phone. So, every minute
第6页/共10页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司counts, and the time wasted every day can add up quickly if you don’t realize it. In order to be more intentional
with your time, you can consider planning out your day’s priorities (优先考虑的事) the night before or the
morning of. Try to find out what things in your life are distracting you, and try to stay away from those distractions
to stop wasting valuable time.
Secondly, make quality time a true value in your life. How you spend your time with someone or doing
something is more important than the quantity (数量) of time you spend on something. Train yourself to be more
present in your life instead of allowing one area of your life to influence another. For example, when you are
spending time with your family, be present and in the moment rather than focusing your thoughts and attention
elsewhere.
We are all given the same 24 hours each day. By being more intentional with your time and valuing quality
time, you’ll learn ways to make better use of it. Then you can improve your overall well-being and spend more time
on what matters most in your life.

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
More and more Chinese students have added extracurricular (课外的) activities to their timetables for summer
第7页/共10页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司vacations. This has led to a rise in tourism packages (套餐) involving study trips and experimental programs at home
and abroad.
Sightseeing places in China, including Guizhou province (省), Anyang in Henan province, and coastal provinces,
have been among the most popular for parents and their children. In these places, children have more opportunities
to enjoy the outdoors, and they can also take part in experimental programs such as papermaking and wax printing.
This summer, Singapore has become the most popular place for students to study abroad. Many Chinese students
have signed up for university classes there to learn more about subjects like robots, programming, and environmental
science.
According to a Beijing Times survey, the most popular tourism packages are those related to history and culture,
the great outdoors and nature exploration (探索), as well as science and technology. Some homestays that offer
experiences including farming, local history, and nature walks are also very popular. The busiest times for family
visits and graduation tours are from June to July. This is because families with preschool-aged children and students
between the ages of 18 and 22 are the main groups. Tourism packages for family travel and study purposes average
(平均) about 6,000 yuan per person.
Chen Juan, a tour guide, said, “Student tourists want to take a walk with instructors at cultural sites like museums
because they want to find out what’s behind the art and get ideas by seeing more of the world. But some study trips
can be in a rush, with little time for students to fully take in the information they are learning.”
Liu Shuang, the mother of a 14-year-old boy in Beijing, signed her son up for a writing workshop. In the
workshop, teens read interesting stories by famous Chinese writers. They also visited some writers’ hometowns.
“The trip is very tiring, as my son has to walk or ride a coach for a long time. But the study trip helps him to
step outside our home in Beijing and put away his computer for a while. It is also a great chance for him to experience
life in the beautiful countryside and discover his love of writing,” said Liu Shuang.
