24、   In today's world, sleep experts say that for a better night's rest, Americans should turn off their smartphones or iPads before sleeping. Such electronic products make the brain more active, and then influence people's sleep. But according to a latest survey, more than 90% of Americans usually use a computer or some other kinds of electronic products in the hour before bed.

Researchers found that man-made light from some electronic products at night might reduce the levels of the brain chemicals that help sleep. The researchers showed that sitting in the light from tablets clearly reduced the levels of the chemicals which manage our body clocks and play a great role in the sleep cycle.

In the study, the researchers let volunteers read, play games and watch movies on a tablet for different time while measuring how much light their eyes received. They found that sitting for two hours before a bright tablet at night reduced the levels of the chemicals by about 22%.

Studies of students using computers at night have got the similar results. And researchers said that might not only cause sleeplessness, but also increase the risk of obesity(肥胖症), diabetes(糖尿病) and other diseases.

To be on the safe side, the researchers advise us to use computers less before bed, or turn down our screens low.

【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A.Americans don't get enough sleep. B.Electronic products are very popular.

C.The brain becomes more active at night. D.Sleep experts never use smartphones.

【2】How many electronic products influence people's sleep?

A.By making our brains more tired. B.By making our bodies weak.

C.By reducing the levels of the brain chemicals that help us sleep. D.By changing our body clocks.

【3】What does the underlined word "that" refer to?

A.Making a survey about sleep. B.Using smartphones in the daytime.

C.Sitting in a bright room. D.Surfing the Internet at night.

【4】What do the researchers advise us to do to have a good sleep?

A.Learn to use smartphones or iPads. B.Watch some relaxing TV programs.

C.Turn down the screens low. D.Try to sleep earlier than before.

25、No one knows when the first house was built and who the first one to build the house was. But the houses are changing all the time.

【1】 What will the house of the future look like? Could it have gardens on its walls， or a pool with fish for diner? Architects(建筑学家) believe that they may come true one day. The only thing

for sure is that the houses will be as green as possible in the future.

【2】 Many architects in the world would like to build a house like a leaf—the surface of the house collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water， produce electricity， and even make fresh air for the room. The “roof” (根) of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil to control the room’s temperature.

【3】 Like a lizard(蜥蜴)， changing color with the weather is the most important design of a lizard house. When it’s in the bright sun， the cover of the house will return white to protect it from strong heat. During dark days， it turns dark and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy.

【4】 This design is perhaps for the future of food. It has a garden on the outside wall of the house. People can plant tomatoes， carrots and green tea on them. So every morning， you just need to walk outside and collect your meals.

【5】 Looking to the future isn’t the only way to be green. Sometimes， the old ways of building houses can also help cut down energy use. For example， a chimney(烟囱) can be a useful air conditioner because it is easier for hot air to run out of the chimney.

A   Learning from the past 

B  Meals at home

C  The lizard house 

D  Houses in the future

E  The tree house 

F  The history of the houses

26、   Have you ever had a problem you couldn’t solve? Maybe you went to the store to look for a solution, but came home empty-handed. More and more, when the situation happens, people are creating their own device(设备) as the solution. It’s all part of the Maker Movement (创客运动)—make up of thousands of wise people who make and fix things, rather than buy them in stores. For makers, making some things by themselves is often cheaper and more satisfying than simply buy them in stores.

Thanks to technology, it’s easier than ever to turn a thought into reality. Many makers use the tools just in different ways. For example, Arduino is popular with makers. This open-source mini controller is used to develop all kinds of electronic devices.

Another key piece of technology for maker is 3D printers. You can even use a 3D printer to build your own 3D printer! The usage of these technologies inspires people to be creative. It is clear that Maker Festivals are more and more popular. People come together to experiment (做实验) in the area of art, science, engineering and technology.

What will be helpful for you to become a maker? You need to be creative and willing to play around with some new technologies. You should also want to share your ideas with others. Perhaps most importantly, you can’t be afraid of failure. Innovator (创新者) hardly gets success on the first try. Be wise, be creative, be cooperative (合作) and have fun!

【1】The Maker Movement is that __________.

A.many wise people make things rather than buy them

B.thousands of people try to reuse some things

D.many rich people try to repair some old things

C.What is the Maker Movement? D.Why is the Maker Movement created?

Ask Angela

Many newspapers have an advice page. So does the school newspaper of Xinhan Middle School. Angela Wang is the editor responsible for the page. Students like to write to her for advice.

Dear Angela,

I’m 16 and I want to leave school this year. My parents say it is too early and that I should be trying to get into high school. I want to work at McDonald’s. Then I can start earning money to buy things.

Jane

Dear Jane,

Your parents are right. It would be better if you can complete as much of your education as possible. Real independence won’t come from earning 150 yuan a week. It will come from the qualifications（资历、学历）and experience that you would gain by staying at school for a couple more years.

Dear Angela,

Jim

Dear Jim,

Being angry and standing against your parents will not solve the problem. Try communicating with them from their point of view. Make a list of things you wish to do and another list of your parents’ possible concerns about them. Let your parents know you have learned to be responsible for yourself.

  Angela

I am having an issue with my Chemistry teacher. She is super nice to my classmates but behaves completely differently towards me. She blames me for things I didn’t do. What should I do?
