The smell of fried rice fills the air as you sit around the family table. But instead of sharing stories, everyone's eyes are fixed on their phones. This is becoming common in Chinese families. A survey shows 68% of Hangzhou teenagers check social media during meals. Does this habit hurt our real-life relations?
Screen Time vs Family Time
Studies show that no-phone dinners improve relationships. When a phone is placed face down, people make 20% more eye contact according to Peking University researchers. Simple acts like passing dishes or laughing at grandparents' stories create warmth that WeChat stickers (表情包) can't replace.
The "Fear of Missing Out" Trap
Many teenagers argue they need to check phones for fear of missing latest news. But Dr. Li from Zhejiang University warns, "FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) actually makes people more worried. Those endless group talking will still be there after dinner." Interestingly, 54% of students in a Hangzhou No.2 High School study agreed that they felt more relaxed after phone-free meals.
Finding the Balance
Completely stopping phone use may cause arguments. Why not try small steps? Some families create "tech baskets" to collect phones during meals. Others allow 5-minute phone checks after eating main courses. The key is to treat real conversations as the main dish, and phone time as just side dishes.
When you finish today's dinner, take a moment to think: Will I remember the funny videos watched alone, or the laughter shared with family over home-made dishes?
(1)、What's the writer's main purpose in Paragraph 2?A、To compare different dining habits B、To show benefits (好处)of phone-free dinners C、To explain how eye contact works D、To discuss popular social media apps(2)、The word "FOMO" in Paragraph 3 refers to ____.A、fear of making offline friends B、worry about missing online information C、joy from family gatherings D、stress about school exams(3)、What does the author want to show by using "side dishes" in Paragraph 4?A、To show that phones can make meals more enjoyable B、To explain that family talks should be the main focus C、To prove that technology is unnecessary in daily life D、To suggest that desserts should be eaten after phones(4)、Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?A、B、

I was at the shop last night and saw a homeless woman with a trolley(手推车) full of her things. She was sitting inside the shop to keep warm. I went up to her and tried to give her money for something to eat, but she refused. She explained that if she had too much money on her, other homeless people might steal it while she was sleeping.
I explained that I just wanted to help her and asked if l could buy her something warm. Again, she said no. She thanked me and said how thankful she was that I could offer help. We introduced ourselves, and she said that when I saw her next time, she would accept help. ▲ The lady taught me an important lesson: Not all homeless people accept money or help if they believe they've received enough that day. I look forward to meeting her again.
Walking out into the cold night, I met a homeless man who was freezing. I gave the money to him. I was glad that he accepted my help.
I left with a special feeling. I always try to understand what it's like to be in a homeless person's shoes or to imagine if they were my children facing such difficulties. I learned how lucky I am and how thankful I should be for what I have.

A big team of kind people worked together to create me. They made me to help everyone-kids like you, grown-ups, teachers, and even grandmas!
How did they do it? First, they fed me with mountains of stories and facts-like books, pictures, and even jokes.

A big test makes students feel fear and anxiety(焦虑的). But taking tests is something faced by all students at all levels of schools. How do you prepare for the tests as well as reducing fear? Maybe they will be of use to you.
Calm down. Don't panic. You will be focusing on the fear, and not the coming test. Many times, fear can even prevent you doing well. If you panic, take deep breaths, and think that you can do this.
People who make a detailed study plan often have an easier time of their studies. When making a study plan, calculate(计算)the amount of time you have left before the exam date. Is the exam in a month? Did the teacher spring the test on you suddenly? Is it a mid-year exam that has been waiting since the start of the year? Depending on the time, make your study plan long or short.
Take notes and ask questions. If you come across what you can't understand, write it down. And don't worry——you aren't stupid if you ask questions. Questions mean that you' re actively learning. Besides, a question ahead of time could mean a better grade on the exam.
Good study skills help to achieve better results with less effort. So use the ones that work for you.
A. Make a study plan.
B. Here are some good study skills.
C. Making a study plan can help you save time.
D. Panic will only make your situation even worse.
E. Ask your teacher either during class or during office hours.
What else can you do to prepare for a test?(请用10词左右的句子回答问题)

15、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C和 D)中选出最佳选项。
In the forest, high up on the steep(陡峭的)shore, and not far from the open sea, stood a very old oak tree. It was three hundred and sixty-five years old. But that long time feels like the same number of days to us. We wake up in the morning and go to sleep at night, and we have our dreams. The tree's life is different;it has to stay awake for three seasons of a year and only gets to rest during winter.
During warm summers, the short-lived flies, called ephemera, would fly around the old tree, enjoying life and feeling happy. If one of the tiny creatures(生物)ever rested on one of the tree's large leaves, the oak would say, " Poor little creature! Your whole life lasts only for a single day. It must be quite sad. "
" What do you mean? " the ephemera would always reply. " Everything around me is so wonderfully bright, and warm, and beautiful, and it makes me so happy. "
" But only for one day, and then it is all over. "
" Over? " repeated the fly. " What is the meaning of over'? Are you' over' too?"
"I will probably live for thousands of days, and my day lasts for whole seasons. It is so long that you could never imagine it. "
" No? Well, I don't understand. You may have thousands of days, but they don't change much. I have thousands of moments in which I can be joyful and happy. So, I have a question for you: Does all the beauty of the world disappear when you die?"
" No, " replied the tree, " it will certainly last much longer than I can even think of. "
" Well, then, " said the little fly, " we have the same time to live; only we have different ways of counting it. "
The ephemera danced happily with its wings in the air, rejoicing in the sweet delights around it. The long and beautiful day seemed to it so full of joy. Finally, when the sun sank low, it felt tired of all its happiness, and its wings could no longer carry it. It gently glided(滑)down onto the soft grass. With a nodof its little head, it was peacefully and sweetly fast asleep——the fly was dead.
(Adapted from The Last Dream of Old Oak)
(1)、What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about?A、where the oak tree stands B、when the oak tree gets to rest C、how the oak tree's life is different D、why the oak tree always stays awake(2)、Why was the ephemera poor in the old oak tree's eyes?A、Because it would die at the end of the day. B、Because it might be easily killed by others. C、Because it couldn't jump or fly any longer. D、Because the beauty of the world disappeared.(3)、How is the passage developed?A、By showing a reason. B、By making a dialogue. C、By describing a place. D、By providing an example.(4)、Which saying can best describe the ephemera's attitude(态度)to life?A、It's never too late to learn. B、While there is life, there is hope. C、Do what you say; say what you do. D、Live in the moment and live it to the full. -
16、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C和 D)中选出最佳选项。
①There are always worries about false information on social media. Believing false information could influence our personal and group health. But why do people believe false information they see online? One popular argument is that they are short of digital literacy(素养), so they' re more likely to believe and share false information.
②To explore the possible connections between one's digital literacy and tendency(倾向)to believe false information, we surveyed 1, 341 Americans. First, we showed them 24 news headlines——half of which were true and half of which were false. Then we tested their digital literacy. After that, they were asked to answer a question about different kinds of newsfeeds.
③The survey found that digital literacy is indeed a good predictor(预测)of one's ability to tell true information from what is false. But when we looked at the connection between digital literacy and the tendency to share false information with others, the results were different. Just like people who were less digitally literate, people who were more digitally literate were likely to share false articles as well.
④Also, the results showed that even people with high digital literacy were not immune from sharing false news with others. This sounds strange. If you are better at telling the difference between the true and the false, why would you share false information? As we look quickly through our newsfeeds, we often pay attention to feedback, such as how many" likes" our posts have received. It turns out that we often forget to ask ourselves whether a story is true or false before deciding to share it.
⑤So, let's all stop right now! Remember to ask ourselves whether the news we see is true before even thinking about clicking" share".
(1)、What is the tone(语气)of the text?A、Angry B、Serious. C、Proud. D、Humorous.(2)、What does the underlined phrase" immunefrom" in Paragraph 4 mean?A、Able to avoid. B、Glad to enjoy. C、Brave to stop. D、Willing to practise.(3)、What is the writer's purpose in writing the passage?A、To explain the importance of digital literacy. B、To introduce how to improve digital literacy. C、To remind readers to protect personal information. D、To explore why people share false information online.(4)、Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?A、B、
C、
