Chances are that you don’t. You probably think the music that they like is old and boring and that the songs on your playlist are muchcooler. But scientists found that people’s music taste changes as time goes by. So it is likely that your own musical preferences will follow a similar path to your parents’, whether you like it or not.We used to think that culture and personality (个性) are the only reasons for different music choices. But researchers at the University of Cambridge noticed that as people enter into different age groups, their social environment changes, and so does their music taste. There are some musical periods that people go through in their life.The first period comes in the teenage years, during which people like strong music such as punk and rock, because teenagers tend to be aggressive or want to be independent.But as people move into early adulthood, their lifestyles change they want to build close relationships with others. As a result, they become fonder of contemporary music, such as pop and R&.B, which is usually uplifting and danceable.When middle age comes, most people have settled down. During this period, people prefer music, such as jazz and classical, as well as music like country, folk and blues.As for old people, they prefer old songs in their childhoods. They generally listen to relaxing music, such as country music and jazz music. But you must be questioning. “Aren’t there old people who are still interested in or even crazy about rock music?” Of course there are. But their reasons for listening to rock music may have changed. At that age people may listen to remind themselves of their youth.4. What do young people usually think of the songs their parents enjoy?A. They are actually less cool.B. They are worth listening to.C. They are especially serious.D. They are hard to understand.5. How many musical periods are there that people go through in their life?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.6. People who want to make friends mostly prefer ________.A. jazz musicB. country musicC. rock musicD. pop music7. What is the best title for the text?A. People Have Different Opinions on MusicB. People Listen to Music for the Same ReasonC. People’s Taste in Music Changes with TimeD. People’s Lifestyle Can Be Changed by MusicCChina's Mars probe Tianwen-1 successfully landed on the surface of the red planet on May 15, 2021, leaving a Chinese footprint on Mars for the first time and in its first attempt, becoming the only other nation besides theUSto get such an achievement. The Tianwen-1 probe touched down at its pre-selected landing area in the southern part of Utopia Planitia, a wide plain on Mars, at 7:18 a.m.(Beijing Time), after three months scanning the whole planet on Mars docking orbit, the China National Space Administration(CNSA) announced.Tianwen-1, including an orbiter, a lander and a rover, was launched from the 'Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site on the coast of southernChinas islandprovinceofHainanon July 23, 2020. It was the first step inChina's planetary exploration of the solar system, with the aim of completing orbiting, landing and roving on the red planet in one mission. According to the administration, the country's first Martian probe will conduct scientific investigations about the Martian soil, environment, atmosphere as well as water.China's planetary exploration program has been named “Tianwen”, which was named after a long poem by the famous ancient poet Qu Yuan. The name represents the Chinese nation's willpower in pursuing truth, the country's cultural inheritance of its understanding of nature and universe, as well as the unending exploration in science and technology.China's first Mars rover has been named “Zhurong”, which means the god of fire in an ancient Chinese story. The name indicates Chinese people's blessing for the rover to light the flame ofChina's planetary exploration. The rover has six wheels and four solar panels, and carries 13 scientific instruments. According to the CNSA, Zhurong has started its scientific exploration after moving from the landing platform onto the Red Planet's surface on May 22.More than 40 Mars missions have been launched since the 1960s, but only about half have succeeded. It is the first time in the world that orbiting, landing and roving on Mars has been completed in one launch mission, andChinahas come to the forefront of Mars exploration in the world.8.

Tianwen-1 was launched from Wenchang.DIn many countries of the world, people can confidently tell youthe meaning of their town or city, but most people who live inManchester,OxfordorBirminghamwould not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.Two thousand years ago, most people living inBritainwere Celts. Even the word “Britain" is Celtic (凯尔特语).Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra". This is why there are so many place names inEnglandwhich end in "-chester" or “-caster"Manchester, for example.The Romans never reachedWalesorScotland, and many placenames there are Celtic. For example,Welsh place names that begin with “Llan" come from the Celtic word for "church".After the Romans leftBritain, it was attacked by the Anglo-Saxons who were from the area of Europe that is nowGermanyandHolland. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham" or “-ton". Some got their names from the leader of the village.SoBirminghamfor example, means "Beormund's village”The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (village on a hill)——a good place to build a village and Moreton (“village by a lake”)where floods could make life hard. Place names that end in “-ford" (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.Finally, in 1066EnglandbecameNorman—theNormansgave us the place name "grange", which means farm.And how aboutLondon? Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants (居民). People once believed that theUnited Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud but this is very unlikely. Our best guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fast-flowing river. Like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.12. The origin of British place names is unfamiliar to many local people because ofA. the death of local languagesB. the long lost history of the namesC. their lack of interest in itD. the frequent changes to the names13. According to the article,Stratfordis most likely a town .A. on a hillB. near a castleC. beside a riverD. with a church14. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants inBritain?A. The Celts—The Romans—TheNormans—The Anglo SaxonsB. The Celts—The Romans—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansC. The Romans—The Celts—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansD. The Romans―The Anglo Saxons—The Celts—TheNormans15. What doesLondonmean in Celtic?A. RiverB. LondiniumC. LudD.

He did not run his first marathon until he was 45.It was 22 years before Malcolm ran another marathon in Portland,Oregon,in the US.At his peak Malcolm ran at least one marathon a month."My race isn't run yet.I will keep going for as long as I can.If I can raise money for Dementia Revolution to help other people,and that's even better."4.What do we know about Malcolm Brookes?______A.

RIS stabilizes the West Antarctic ice sheet by blocking the ice which flows into it from some of theworld's largest glaciers (冰川)."If the ice shelf falls,the rate at which these glaciers transport water to the ocean could speed up dramatically,causing sea levels to rise.Previous studies have shown that when ice shelves fall,the feeding glaciers can speed up for a reason or two or three," said co-author Dr.Poul Christoffersen from Cambridge's Scott Polar Research Institute."The difference here is the size of RIS,which is over one hundred times larger than the ice shelves we've already seen disappear."They took measurements of temperature,salinity (盐度),melt rate and ocean currents using instruments passed through a 260-metre hole.Four years' worth of data were also collected.In addition,a custom-made radar (雷达)system was employed to survey the changing thickness of the ice."Climate change is likely to result in less sea ice,and higher surface ocean temperatures in the Ross Sea,suggesting that melt rates in this region will increase in the future," Dr.Stewart said.8.What can we learn from the passage?______A. Antarctic ice is as large as France.B. Dr.Craig Stewart conducted the research alone.C. RIS is part of the Antarctic ice sheet.D. More than 100 ice shelves disappeared.9.Which of the following causes the RIS to melt faster?______A. Size of ice sheet.B. Higher surface ocean temperatures.C. Ocean salinity.D. Ocean currents.10.What is the writer's attitude towards the future of the Ross Ice Shelf?______A. Positive.B. Concerned.C. Optimistic.D. Cold.11.What does the passage mainly talk about?______A. RIS is moving faster and faster.B. Sea levels are rising ten times faster.C. Glaciers fall more frequently these years.D. Heated surrounding oceans speed up RIS melting.DSprint users hoping to take advantage of the company's coming 5G network now have a month to look forward to:May.At the MWC trade show in Barcelona Sprint announced Monday that it will turn on itsnext-generation wireless network in May with customers in Chicago,Atlanta,Dallas and Kansas City planned to be the first to get access to the 5G service.The company plans to launch (启动)5G in Houston,Los Angeles,New York City,Phoenix and Washington during the first half of 2019.It's unclear how extensive the initial coverage will be in each of the launch cities.Sprint says that the New York launch will be focused on the "nearly 30 square miles covering Midtown and lower Manhattan" while the Dallas launch will cover "approximately 230 square miles covering the greater Dallas Fort Worth area," suggesting that some cities will be better covered than others.In addition to announcing its first 5G cities,Sprint also displayed a new device (装置)from HTC called the HTC 5G Hub.Unlike the LG phone,the 5G Hub is designed to be placed inside your home as an alternative to broadband,functioning as a mobile hotspot that allowsfor up to 20 devices to connect and tap into Sprint's 5G network.With 5G's ability to offer faster speeds and lower delays,Sprint says this device can be used for not just streaming 4K content to a TV or connecting to the Internet but also for playing games online.The device also has a Gigabit Ethernet (千兆以太网)port for plugging in devices as well as a 5-inch screen.As with the LG phone,however,no exact pricing or release date was announced beyond a vague "this spring.""This Hub is like a ‘Swiss Army Knife' with multiple tools that will quickly make it vital and universal for connected homes and small businesses," Sprint CEO Michel Combes said in a news release."It uses the speed of our upcoming 5G network to drive content sharing,gaming,entertainment and more."12.What can we learn about the Sprint's 5G launching?______A.

VietnamBMy violin is like a soul mate that whispers words of wisdom to me.Together,we've gone through both tears and happiness.About 12 years ago,I made acquaintance with it following an order from my mom.Many hours of boredom were spent practicing it.And to make things worse,the disappointment inmy teacher's eyes as I played the wrong notes was like an invisible hammer,striking on my heart.One day,I finally decided:I hate it!By chance,things changed when I was seven.I was at home lying on the sofa,wondering how those famous violinists dealt with this terrible dilemma.I searched online for the E-minor Concerto,a well-known violin work by German composer Felix Mendelssohn,and listened to it.A beautiful and mysterious sound came from the violin as the bow moved across it.It was like the music slid over the flowers,rose up,and started to fill the air.The violin's voice woke up the sun,made the trees green,and freshened the air.As the music changed,the sky turned back to gray.A gloomy shade covered the grass as all the sunshine disappeared.I could hear children crying and men shouting.It was like an invisible claw had grabbed my heart tightly,making it unable to beat.That glorious day set off my passion and interest in violin - I grabbed mine and never let it go.Before the memories faded,I stared at my instrument.Without hesitating,I picked it up,rosined(用松香擦)the bow,and began to play.Peace filled my heart.My violin has been by my side for 12 years.When I feel happy,an energetic tune makes it even better;when I'm deep in sorrow,a peaceful tune washes it away,when I'm walking on air,feeling especially pleased with my achievements,solemn(庄严的)tunes calm me down.Gradually,it has become a part of my life.My violin,shall I compare you to a summer's day?4.What further contributed to the author's dislike of violin-playing?______A.

A science newspaper.DA new study shows that rising levels of planet-warming gases may reduce important nutrients in food crops.Researchers studied the effects of one such gas-carbon dioxide-on rice.The researchers grew rice plants in a controlled environment.They set carbon dioxide levels to what scientists are predicting for our planet by the end of the century.They found that the resulting rice crops had lower than normal levels of vitamins,minerals and protein.The researchers said the effects of planet-warming gases would be most severe for the poorest citizens in some of the least developed countries.These people generally eat the most rice and have the least complex diets,they noted.In the experiment,scientists grew 18 kinds of rice in fields in China and Japan.They pumpedcarbon dioxide gas over the plants in an effort to create the atmosphere of the future.Rice grown under high carbon dioxide conditions had,on average,13 to 30 percent lower levels of four B vitamins and 10 percent less protein.The crops also had 8 percent less iron and 5 percent less zinc(锌)an rice grown under normal conditions.However,vitamin E levels increased by about 13 percent on average.The results are bad news,"especially for the nutrition of the poorer population inless-developed countries," said the University of Tokyo's Kazuhiko Kobayashi,who helped to write the report.That includes about 600 million people in Indonesia,Cambodia,Myanmar,Bangladesh,Laos and other nations,mainly in Southeast Asia,the report said.One of the scientists is Sam Myers of Harvard University in the American state of Massachusetts.He said that findings like this are an example of the surprises climate change create." My concern is there are many more surprises to come," he said.Myers noted that pollution,loss of some species,destruction of forests,and other human activities are likely to produce unexpected problems.He said that you cannot completely change all the natural systems that living organisms have grown to depend on over millions of years without having effects come back to affect our own health.The new study suggests a way to lower the nutritional harm of climate change.One way,Kobayashi said,is grow different forms of rice that have shown to be more resistant to higher carbon dioxide levels.12.Which county would be influenced most by planet-warming gases according to the text?______A.

Her real interest in cooking food.CIn spring,chickens start laying eggs again,bringing a welcome source of protein at winter's end.So it's no surprise that cultures around the world celebrate spring by honoring the egg.Some traditions are simple,like the red eggs that get baked into Greek Easter breads.Othersupgrade the egg into a fancy art,like the heavily jewel-covered "eggs" that were favored by the Russians starting in the 19th century.One ancient form of egg art is egg painting,which comes to us from Ukraine.For centuries,Ukrainians have been drawing complicated patterns on eggs.Contemporary artists have followed this tradition and adapted the traditional methods to create eggs that speak to the anxieties of our age:Life is precious,and delicate.Eggs are,too."There's something about their delicate nature that crazily appeals to me," says New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast.Several years ago,she became interested in egg painting and learned the traditional Ukrainian technique to draw her very modern characters."I've broken eggs at every stage of the process - from the very beginning to the very,very end."But there's an appeal in that vulnerability."There's part of this sickening horror that I kind of like,the horror of knowing you're walking on the edge with this,knowing that it could all fall apart at any second." Chast's designs,such as a worried man alone in a tiny boat,reflect that delicateness.Traditional Ukrainian decorated eggs also spoke to those fears.The complex and detailed patterns were believed to offer protection against evil.Egg painting art,dating back to 300 B.C.,was later absorbed into the Christian church.The old symbols,however,still survive.A decorated egg with a bird on it,given to a young married couple,is a wish for children.A decorated egg thrown into the field would be a wish for a good harvest.8.What do we learn about the decorated "eggs" in Russia?______A. They are shaped like jewel cases.B. They are heavily painted in red.C. They are favored as a form of art.D. They are valued by the rich.9.Why have contemporary artists continued the tradition of egg painting?______A. Because eggs serve as a symbol of the coming of spring.B. Because eggs provide a source of protein in winter's end.C. Because eggs provide a unique surface to paint on.D. Because eggs reflect the anxieties of people today.10.Which of the following best explains "vulnerability" underlined in paragraph 5?______A. Delicateness.B. Technique.C. Fear.D. Anxiety.11.What is the main idea of the text?______A. Egg painting art preserves traditional and popular symbols.B. Different cultures have different ways of honoring the egg.C. Ukrainian egg painting art appeals to contemporary artists.D. Egg painting art continues and develops in pace with time.DImagine you enter a car with no steering wheel,no brake or accelerator pedals (踏板).Under a voice-activated command,you say an address."The fastest route will take us 15.3 minutes.Should I take it?" You say "yes" and you are on your way.The car responds and starts moving all by itself.All you have to do is to sit back and relax.How strange would it be if,one day in the future,everyone had such a car?No crazy driving,no quarrels,no cutting in;traffic laws would be respected and driving much safer.On the other hand,imagine the cost savings for local police enforcement (强制执行)and town budgets without all those speeding and parking tickets.A new technology has the potential to change modern society thoroughly.There's no question that self-driving vehicles could be an enormous benefit.The potential for safer cars means accident statistics would drop:some 94% of road accidents in the U.S.involve human error.Older drivers and visually- or physically-disabled people would gain a new level of freedom.Maintaining safe speeds and being electric,self-driving cars would sharply reduce pollution levels and dependency on non-renewable fuels.Roads would be quieter,people safer.But we must also consider the impact of the new technology on those who now depend on driving for their living.According to the U.S.Department of Labor,in May 2015 there were 505,560 registered school bus drivers.The American Trucking Association lists approximately 3.5 million professional truck drivers in the U.S.The companies developing self-driving vehicles should be partnering with state and federal authorities to offer retraining for this massive workforce,many of whom will be displaced by the new technology.New technologies will,and should,be developed.This is how society moves forward.However,progress can't be one-sided.It is necessary for the companies and state agencies involved to consider the moral consequences of these potential changes to build a better future for all.12.What would be the effect of the wide use of driverless cars?______A. More policemen would inspect the streets.B. People would never feel angry about the traffic.C. It would save local governments a lot of money.D. Traffic regulations would be a thing of the past.13.How would the elderly and the disabled benefit from driverless cars?______A. They would get rid of air pollution.B. They could enjoy greater mobility.C. They would suffer no road accidents.D. They could go anywhere they want.14.What would be the negative effect of driverless cars?______A. The conflict between labor and management would sharpen.B. Many drivers would have to find new ways of earning a living.C. Drivers would have a hard time adapting to new road conditions.D. The gap between various departments of society would be widened.15.What does the author suggest businesses and the government do?______A. Enable everyone to benefit from new technologies.B. Keep pace with technological developments.C. Make new technologies affordable to everyone.D. Popularize the use of new technologies and devices.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共50.0分)Artists might have sunk into a state where they forgot themselves,didn't need to think and lost track of time,and inspirations would "just flow out".Such a state of total involvement and effortless concentration is called "flow".(1) .It is accompanied by physical changes such as deepened breathing and slow heart beats.The benefits of being in the flow state stretch beyond the experience itself.Flow is associated with subjective happiness,satisfaction with life and inner peace.At work,it's linked to productivity,motivation and responsibility.(2) .In fact,we all can experience flow whenever we are fully devoted to our work or hobbies or relationships,in mountains and cities alike.If you don't experience flow every day,here are ways to trigger (触发)it.Create best conditionsAvoid noisy environments and opportunities for interruptions.(3) ,so you'll need to experiment to find what works best for you.(4) You need to engage in activities that are meaningful,that you find challenging and for which you have the skills required to come out as winners.The level of difficulty should also be just right - not so easy that you find yourself bored,but not so hard that you get stressed.Stay highly aware of yourselfPractice staying highly aware of your breath,your presence,your thoughts and your actions,and you will live fully each second of the present and be completely yourself.Gradually the world around melts away and what you are doing becomes worth doing for its own sake.(5) .A.Decide on a proper activityB.Flow is more than a state of mindC.Fortunately,flow is not unique to artistsD.Flow is a happy accident when it happensE.Then you will be already in the flow state before you know itF.The most desirable environment varies from person to personG.Take whatever calm you can get,be yourself and the observer of yourself16.

高考英语模拟试卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AThe earth is a mysterious place that never stops to amaze.There are many places completely unimaginable.The incapability to understand the real story behind some of these phenomena draws many people.Blood Falls,AntarcticaHow is it that the coldest and driest place on the planet has a blood-red waterfall pouring down slowly into the McMurdo Dry Valleys,some of the most extreme desert lands on Earth?What causes the mysterious flow was only recently discovered in a study.Scientists believed for many years red algae(红藻)gave it the unusual color.But now research has shown that iron oxide(氧化物)is responsible for it.The waterfall even contains strange bacterial life forms.Magnetic Hill,Moneton,New BrunswickBe very careful if you choose to drive to the bottom of this hill.Stories about what happens there have been around since early 1900s.As impossible as it sounds,your car will start to roll uphill."And it doesn't just work on cars-vans,trucks and even tour buses roll upward." according to Tourism New Brunswick.Racetrack Playa,Death Valley,CaliforniaLocated in a remote valley between the Cottonwood and Last Chance Ranges,Racetrack Playa is a place of real beauty and mystery.The Racetrack is a dry lakebed,best known for its strange moving rocks.It looks like they "sailed" through the valley.Although no one has actually seen the rocks move,the long moving tracks left behind in the mud surface of the Playa prove their activity.The most logical explanation so far is that ice forms covering the stones,causing them to move.1.What's special about Racetrack Playa?______A. The lakebed there is red.B. The rocks there can move.C. There is no living creature.D. The rocks there can make sound.2.Which of the following is true?______A. It is red algae that gives Blood Falls the unusual color.B. These mysterious phenomena have been given exact explanations.C. People have witnessed the rocks moving.D. When you drive at the bottom of Magnetic Hill,your car will go up the hill.3.What's the purpose of the text?______A. To tell amazing stories.B. To advertise new places.C. To introduce distinguished placesD. To uncover mysterious phenomena.BMy brother-in-law opened the bottom drawer of my sister's bureau(衣橱)and picked out a wonderful skirt."Jan bought this the first time we went to New York,at least eight or nine years ago.She never wore it.She was saving it for a special occasion." Well,I guess this is the occasion.He took the skirt from me and put it on the bed.His hands touched the soft material for a moment,and then he shut the drawer and turned to me,"Don't ever save anything for a special occasion.Every day you're alive is a special occasion."I'm still thinking about his words,and they've changed my attitude to life.I'm spending more time with my family and friends and less time on committee meetings.Whenever possible,life should be a pattern of experience to enjoy,not suffer.I'm trying to recognize these moments now and treasure them."Some day" and "one of these days" are being lost from my vocabulary.If it's worth seeing or hearing or doing,I want to see and hear and do it now.I'm not sure what my sister would have done if she had known she wouldn't have tomorrow.I think she would have called family members and a few close friends.She might have calleda few former friends to apologize and mend her fences for past things.I think she would have gone out for a Chinese dinner,her favorite food.If I knew that my hours were limited,those little things left undone would make me angry.Angry because I put off seeing good friends whom I was going to get in touch with some day.Angry and sorry because I didn't tell my husband and daughter often enough how much I truly love them.I'm trying very hard not to put off,hold back,or save anything that would add laughter to our lives.And every morning when I open my eyes,I tell myself that every day,every minute,every breath truly,is…a gift worth cherishing.4.What kind of person do you think Jan is?______A. mean and conservativeB. active and confidentC. economical and introvertD. indifferent and distant5.Which of the following is not the writer's attitude to life?______A. Spending more time staying with the family.B. Enjoying life and valuing every day.C. Attending social activities as often as possible.D. Trying to get along well with friends.6.Which of the following can best explain the underlined expression "mend her fences forpast"?______A. Break her word.B. Try to be friendly again with someone.C. Give up her point of view.D. Keep her promise.7.What can be inferred from the passage?______A. People are advised to treasure every day and the meaning of life.B. People are encouraged to be hard on themselves for a bright life.C. People are told to get rid of being angry and sorry in life.D. People are persuaded to care for themselves more than others.CEven as we humans keep polluting the world.Nature somehow keeps finding a way to help correct our mistakes.First,there is a molecule(分子)that helps reduce global warming.Now,a team of Yale students may have discovered something equally amazing - plasticeating fungi(真菌).Pestalotiopsis microspora(微孢子)is the only known fungus to be able to survive only on plastic.The plastic is so hard that it takes thousands of years to break down on its own.The best part is that these fungi can do the job even in an oxygenless environment,which means that it could work perfectly even at the bottom of a landfill.The discovery was the result of an effort between three Yale students who were part of the Rainforest Expedition and Laboratory Program,allowing a selected group of students to visit Ecuador's rainforest and seek out fungi and bacteria that live inside plants without harming them,which could hold medical or scientific promise.The samples are then brought back to the University's lab where they do wide testing to see if they are of any practical or scientific use.In 2008,a student named Pria Anand gathered specimens for one purpose - to find a microbe that could cat plastic.That's when she came across the Pestalotiopsis microspora.Though she did show the unbelievable characteristics of the fungi,she was unable to get the desired results by the time she graduated,in 2010.Luckily for he Jonathan Russell,a 2011graduating student,picked up right where she had left off.By combining her work with research performed by another of Pria's classmates,Jeffery Huang,he was able to separate the enzyme(酶)in the fungus that is the most effective in breaking down plastic.Hopefully,experts will take it up from here and make the project a reality and help reduce plastic!8.What is the main character of Pestaltiopsis microspora?______A. It helps reduce global warming.B. It needs less oxygen to produce.C. It can break down plastic.D. It can be buried in a landfill.9.The underlined sentence in the passage may mean ______ .A. Jonathan continued to study what Pria failedB. Jonathan drove to pick up Pria when she got offC. Jonathan came across Pria at an unexpected placeD. Jonathan invited Pria to go on with her research10.What can we know from the passage?______A. There are some kind of fungi that can eat plasticB. These fungi can only work in an oxygen environmentC. The discovery was made by chance.D. A group of students made the discovery that fungi can break down plastic11.The best title for the passage may be ______ .A. Fungi Love PlasticB. Plastic Is Eaten by FungiC. Fungi Are Eaten by PlasticD. Fungi Are Hidden in PlasticDIt's normal for teens to want to stay connected to friends and social circles,but in the middle of the night?The Journal of Youth Studies recently published new research indicating that one in five teens from 12 to 15 regularly wake during the night to have some form of social media.Not surprisingly,the research also indicated that these social night owls were three times more likely than their friends to feel tired at school and that girls were more likely than boys to be called to office.The blue light produced by cell phones,tablets and computers signals the brain to stayawake,so it's easy to see why a teen might be up all might.A 2016 study in Psychological Science noted the same brain circuits(脑回路)that are activated by eating chocolate and winning money are activated when teens see large numbers of "likes" on their posts or those of their peers.Besides not catching enough snaps,by interrupting their sleep cycle,teens may never fully engage in REM sleep(快速动眼睡眠),the deepest stage of sleep that may be responsible for brain development and learning.Considering about 72 percent of children from 6 to 17 sleep with some electronic media in their bedrooms,parents need to set boundaries sooner rather than later."Providing access to devices and thus to social media is a privilege that children can earn and also lose," Janie Feldman,a psychologist who treats sleep disorders,reminds parents that,"temporarily removing privileges can have important impact so long as the means of earning back the privileges is clear.Teens and parents should discuss and agree upon terms of use,timing,and access.Teenagers are most cooperative when they agree to the rules,so including them in defining rules makes for very effective parenting.12.What does the new research indicate about teens from 12to 15?______A. Some of them rely on social media for homework.B. Some of them share their sleep experience online.C. Some of them often use cell phones or tablets at midnight.D. Some of them surf online for ways to protect animals.13.How will teens' brain react when they see many "likes" on their posts?______A. It will become too active for the teens to go to sleep.B. It will inspire the teens to post something more online.C. It will promote the teens for some restful time.D. It will promote the teens to earn money with their posts.14.What advice does Janie Feldman give parents of teens?______A. Forbid their children from using social media at night.B. Get the children to cam the right to social media with housework.C. Never give the children access to social media if they break a rule.D.
