light from smartphonesbefore bed, causing problems with sleep. a new survey also shows more than 28 million people in the uk regularly get no more than seven hours sleep a night. prof richard wiseman, who commissioned the yougov poll described the findings as extremely worrying. of the 2,149 adults questioned, 78% said they used electronic devices before going to bed. this rose to 91% among the 18 to 24-year-olds questioned in the survey.getting less than seven hours sleep a night is below the recommended guidelines, and is associated with a range of problems, including an increased risk of weight gain, heart attacks, diabetes and cancer. the blue light from these devices suppresses（压制）the production of the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin, so its important to avoid them before bed time, said prof richard wiseman, from the university of hertfordshire. everyone needs different amounts of sleep, but adults are generally thought to require a minimum of seven to eight hours a night. teenagers are recommended to get more, about nine hours. the proportion（比例）of people thought to be getting too little sleep had risen by a fifth since a bedroom poll conducted last year by the national sleep foundation.last week revealed opticians were warning that overuse of smartphones may be increasing peoples risk of eye damage. optician andy hepworth said: blue violet light is potentially harmful to the back of your eyes. so over a long period of time it can damage your eyes. when youre looking at a smart phone, the light peaking out of that is blue violet. the news came as a survey of 2,000 people suggests under-25s check their phones 32 times a day.24. the purpose of the passage is to _.a. stress that people dont use smartphones.b. remind people of enough sleep.c. ask

bloemfontein, south africa. when he was 4 years old, his father died and his family moved back to england. tolkien graduated from oxford university when he was 23 years old, and participated in the first world war. during the war, tolkien suffered from trench fever and stayed in the hospital until the end of world war i. it was the days in the hospital that he began his writing career first.after the war, tolkien became a linguist. he was an edition of the new english dictionary of 1918 -1920 . however, he was more researching to anglo-saxon language which makes his extensive contacts in britain and the nordic spread all over the folklore and mythology.in 1937, tolkien completed his first work the hobbit. although this was a fairy tale, it was also suitable for adults to read. because of good sales, publishers (allen & unwin) convinced tolkien to write its sequel. this encouraged tolkien to complete his most famous works the epic(史诗) trilogy the lord of the rings. the works of writing went on for almost a year with the support from his good friend lewis .at the beginning the lord of the rings was similar works for children, but after that writing style quickly became serious and dark. the lord of the rings was one of the most popular literary works in the 20th century, in terms of sales and readers evaluation. tolkiens influence is important, for the success of lord of the rings, the fantasy novels of this literature genre(体裁) has developed rapidly.28. when did tolkien take part in the world war i?a. 1896 b. 1915 c. 1916 d. 193729. which of the

novelsd. the most popular literary works in the 20th century31. the word “evaluation” in the last paragraph is closet to the meaning of . a. opinion b. value c. interest d. hobbydvacation is a time for refreshment. in work, we are often called to think. sometimes, its good to give our brains a rest. without a break, we may not be able to perform up to our potential. this can be a problem, not only for the employee, but for the employer as well. “the main benefit of vacation is for the worker to come back energized,” says weaver. “if they havent had a break, then theyre not coming back with new energy. they havent had a chance to step back and get perspective（远景）, and come back with renewed enthusiasm.” long working hours without a break, insecurity（不安）about ones job, and other work-related worries can lead to burnout and stress. humans can usually adapt to pressure, but not for a limitless amount of time. “it is a problem of relating good workers and having them loyal to the firm while theyre there,” says david maume, phd, professor of sociology at the university of cincinnati. he says burnout can also affect employees productivity, creativity, and effectiveness. in addition, high levels of stress are likely to be precursors (前兆) to depression, which can hit both the employer and employees pocketbook. even people who manager to remain productive at work can have problems. if theyre always at work, then theyre not with their family and friends. if theyre working while on vacation, for the time that theyre on the job, theyre not really present. an unbalanced emphasis on work can strain family and social life. when you come up for air, you may see that youre alone, or that your relationships have gone on without you.32. the underlined word “there” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to _.a. the vacationb. the companyc. the universityd. the home 33. whats the main benefit of a vacation?a. the worker can come back with new energy.b. the worker can

pressure.d. why the workers need new energy. 第二节 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。其中有两项为多余选项。（注意：若你选择的答案为e，请在机读卡上填涂ab；答案为f，填涂ac；答案为g，填涂ad，多涂或少涂均不得分）。getting olderno one really knows how and why people change as they get older. 36 . aging is a complex and varied process that varies in how it affects different people and organs. in fact, even in one person, different organ systems “age” at different rate. at a certain point in our lives our body systems will begin to weaken. 37 . it may become more difficult for us to see and hear. the slow change of aging causes our bodies to lose some of their ability to bounce back from disease and injury. in order to live longer, we have always tried to slow or stop this change that leads us toward the end of our lives. 38 . a good diet plays an important role. the amount and the type of exercise we get are another two factors. 39 . but scientists studying the aging problem want to know: why do people grow old? they hope that by
