You may know about “junk food” like French fries. But do you know about “junk sleep”? Recently, a British survey（调查）shows that there are many electronic products in teenagers’ bedrooms. They are influencing teenagers’ sleep badly.

The survey was done among 1,000 British kids from 12 to 16. It found that 50% of them got just 4 to 7 hours’ sleep every day. But doctors say they need 8 to 9 hours.

Almost 25% of the kids said they often fell asleep while they were watching TV, listening to music or using other electronic products.

“This is very worrying,” said Dr. Chris, a British professor（教授）. “We call it ‘junk sleep’. It means you don’t get enough sleep and the quality（质量）of the sleep is low, too. If you don’t get a good rest, you won’t do well in school the next day.”

The survey found that quite a few of the kids felt tired each day because of the junk sleep, especially girls between 13 and 16 feeling the worst. Nearly all the teenagers have a phone, MP5 or TV in their bedrooms. And lots of them even have all the three.

Dr. Chris suggested that parents should help their children keep away from electronic products, and teenagers should spend less time on the electronic products.

A．	they are both low in quality	B．	they are both needed in our life
C．	they are both enjoyed at weekends	D．	they are both necessary for people’s health

Nightingale was the world’s first great nurse. She was born in a rich family in 1820, in Florence, Italy. She could have lived an easy, comfortable life. But instead, she chose to work hard and care for the sick. Because she is one of the world’s greatest nurses, every year on her birthday, May 12, people celebrate International Nurses’ Day to remember the love and help that she gave to so many people.

When she was 24, she told her parents she wanted to be a nurse. But they didn’t like the idea. The family had lots of money, so they thought it would be better if she didn’t work. Nurses were not very well respected at that time. But Nightingale went on with her dream. She went to Germany to learn to be a nurse. There were no nursing schools at that time. She had to learn by practising. During a war in 1854, Nightingale and a team of 38 nurses from England went to care for soldiers near Turkey. She made the hospitals much cleaner there. At night, she would look after the soldiers. She carried a lamp(灯) with her, and soldiers began to call her “The Lady with the Lamp”. In 1860, after the war, Nightingale opened the first nursing school. She also worked to make hospitals better and make rules for nurses. She died in 1910 in London, England at the age of 90. Nightingale’s birthday became International Nurses’ Day in 1974.

A．

an American

a German

（2）When did Nightingale begin to want to be a nurse?

A．	At the age of 24.	B．	When she was still a little girl.
C．	Since she was born.	D．	After she went to England.

（3）What problems did Nightingale have before 1854?

A．	Her parents didn’t want her to be a nurse.	B．	There were no nursing schools at that time.	C．
D．	She didn’t have enough money.	E．	Both A and	F．

（4）When did Nightingale’s birthday become International Nurse’ Day?

A．

In 1820.

B．

C．

What’s the Silk Road? In history, it was an important international trade route（贸易路线）between China and the Mediterranean Sea（地中海）. The Silk Road began in the Western Han Dynasty and has a history of more than 2,000 years.

In the past, the road started in Chang’an（now Xi’an）and ended in Eastern Europe near the Mediterranean Sea. It was about 6,500 kilometers long and went across 1/4 of the world.

The Silk Road got its name in the 19th century because Chinese silk was famous, and traders carried it to other places along this road. Traders also carried porcelain and other things to the West. And glass, gems and food like carrots from the West came to China.

The Silk Road was very important to both China and the rest of the world. It was more than an international trade route. Lots of arts and science of other countries came to China across the Silk Road. In this way, languages and cultures influenced each other.

Today, China is trying to make the dream of the Belt and Road come true.

（2）The Silk Road got its name because traders ____________ to other places along this road.

In my opinion, China’s “Double Reduction” Policy（“双减”政策）aimed at easing（减轻）education-related pressure on parents and children is effective. Now take my home as an example to show how it works.

“Dad! Get up! You promised to take us to the zoo today!” my two daughters shouted together one recent Saturday morning. The clock had just struck seven, but our house had already gotten noisier than the monkeys in the zoo!

For families with children, weekends have become very different. In the past, my wife and I could at least sleep in（睡懒觉）. Then at 9 o’clock, we had to wake up the kids. After throwing them into a tutoring class（辅导班）, we could enjoy several hours to ourselves. But now, these classes are gone altogether. Kids, of course, are happy about this. Every Tuesday or Wednesday evening, my girls would ask me, “Where are we going to spend this coming Saturday?”

Luckily, there are still some classes for them to attend. On Sundays, my girls go to learn ballet and chess. They really enjoy their time there. My elder daughter is old enough to read quietly on her own. On lucky days, we can get her to read together with her sister. Still, a quiet “competition” is on. My girls sometimes talk about how their classmates have spent an exciting weekend. It’s their way of complaining about my laziness.

Weekends are more tiring now for parents, but I think they are good for kids. After all, childhood should be more than just studying school subjects. It should be more colorful.

（1）What is the aim of the “Double Reduction” Policy?

A．	To ease education-related pressure on parents and children.
B．	To make parents stay with their children at weekends.
C．	To make parents have more time for themselves at weekends.
D．	To make children and their parents have a good time at weekends.

（2）What did the writer do with his children one recent Saturday morning?

A．	They travelled to the countryside.	B．	They went camping.
C．	They went to the zoo.	D．	They went to a tutoring class.

（3）When the tutoring classes are gone altogether, children are________.

A．

tired

B．

sad

C．

happy

D．

surprised

（4）Which of the following is NOT true?

A．	The writer’s elder daughter is old enough to read quietly by herself.
B．	The “Double Reduction” Policy is effective.
C．	The writer’s children learn ballet and chess on Sundays now.
D．	Weekends are more relaxing for parents because of the “Double Reduction” Policy.

（5）What might be the writer’s attitude（态度）toward the Policy?

A．

Supportive.

B．

Disapproving.

C．

Doubtful.

D．

Unsure.
