11、rt devices.We gaze for hoursabout 10 hours and 39 minutes a dayat our computers，smartphones，tablets and televisions.Is all this staring bad for us? It might be，mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.Blue light is a type of electromagnetic radiation with a v

12、ery short wavelength that produces a high amount of energy.While its true that light can damage our eyes under certain circumstances，theres no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes.But many people still think it is，which is why blue lightblocking glasses are so popula

13、r.So do the glasses work?“Everyone is very concerned that blue light may be causing damage to the eye，but theres no evidence that it may be causing serious damage，”Dr.Rahul Khurana，clinical spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmologists，told Business Insider.Blue light exposure is nothing ne

14、w.In fact，the sun is the largest source of blue light.Moreover，blue light is also present in LED light.But if blue light isnt harmful，then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when were looking at our screens? The answer is eyestrain(眼疲劳):More than 60 percent of people experience eye problems asso

15、ciated with digital eyestrain.And blue light，it seems，isnt the cause.Instead，our eyes are so strained because most of us blink less when we stare at our digital devices.So if eyestrain is the real issue，blue light-blocking glasses are probably of little use.1、What do we know about blue light?AIt is

It may wash away the inner confusion you feel right after being forced to make a choice between two appealing choices, according to a new study. The

27、study builds on past research into a phenomenon known as “the Macbeth effect”.It turns out that Shakespeare was really onto something when he imagined lady Macbeth trying to clean her conscience（良心）by rubbing invisible bloodstains from her hands. A few years ago, scientists asked people to describe

28、a past wrong act. If people were then given a chance to clean their hands, they later expressed less guilt than people who hadnt cleaned.This finding fascinated W. S. Lee, a researcher. “Anything from the past, any kind of negative emotional experiences, might be washed away,” says Lee.He decided to

29、 test hand washings effect on one kind of bad feeling: the tension we feel after being forced to choose between two attractive choices, because picking one choice makes us feel that weve lose the other. People usually try to calm this inner conflict by later exaggerating（夸大）the positive aspects of t

Others only looked at the soap or sniffed（嗅）it. “Actually, you do not need water and soap,” says Lee.Later, the students again had to rank all the music. People who

31、 didnt wash their hands had the normal response they scored their take-home CD higher, suggesting that they now saw it as even more attractive than before. But this wasnt true for the hand washers. They ranked the music about the same. “they feel no need at all to justify the choice,” say Lee.But th

32、e implications of it just arent clear. Schwarz says its too soon to know whether people should head for a sink after making a tough choice. He says washing may help decision-makers by cleaning away mental disorder, but perhaps if they dont go through the usual post-decision process of justifying the

33、ir choice, they might feel more sorrow in the long run.1、The Macbeth effect refers to the fact that _.AShakespeare did scientific research before writing MacbethBsoaping up ones hand may help wash away the inner confusion and make a decisionCpeople feel less guilty by getting rid of invisible germs

34、from their handsDpeople feel less ashamed after washing their hands2、According to Lee, after people make the choice _.Athey will overstate the goodness of their chosen choiceBthey will feel regretful for not choosing anotherCthey will feel free due to the feeling of losing the other choiceDthey will

I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me

38、 many unforgettable lessons. The work is sometimes difficult. I have seenfamines, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children. Some were as young as four years old. They lived in the streets

39、 and survived by begging or stealing. But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them. Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children. She clothed them, fed them, and taught them. She gave them hope.Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake, in one place. I

40、found an old lady whose house was in ruins, her son was missing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive. But the old lady did not give up hope. For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself. She did not stop until she found her son. He was alive.Here in C

44、 boy?ATheir bravery.BTheir luck.CTheir age.DTheir strong mind25（10分）Nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young. There are many reasons for this, but the result is the same: increasing numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children

45、. And more old people who are lonely and feel use- less, along with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support. Its a major problem in many societies.Thats why intergenerational programmes, designed to bring the old and the young together, are growing in popularity

46、all over the world, supported by UNESCO and other local and international organisations. There are examples of successful initiatives all over the world.

The children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities such as music, painting, gardening and caring f

48、or the pets which the residents are encouraged to keep. In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading or telling stones to the children and, if a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always a kind lap to sit on and a cuddle (依偎). There are trips out and birthday parties too.The advantages are en

49、ormous for everyone concerned. The children are happy because they get a lot more individual attention and respond well because someone has lime, for them. They also learn that old people are not different or frightening in any way. And of course, they see illness and death and learn to accept them.
