19、eople expose themselves to the blue light from smart phones before 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 “e

20、xtremely 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.In reality, getting less than seven hours sleep a night is below the recommended guidelines, and is associated with a

21、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 Universit

22、y 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 of people thought to be getting too little sleep had risen by a fifth since a

23、“bedroom poll” conducted last year by the National Sleep Foundation.Last week opticians warned that overuse of smart phones may be increasing peoples risk of eye damage.

28、child goes from being hardly able to see when just born to being able to talk, ride a bike, draw, and invent an imaginary friend by the age of five, the more they realize that the babys brain is a magic learning machine. Its future -to a great degree -is in our hands. 7Judit Gervain and her team tes

29、ted how good newborns are at telling apart different sound patterns. Using modern technology, the researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard audio sequences (音频序列). In some, the sounds were repeated in an ABB structure, such as a mu-ba-ba. In others, an ABC structure, such as

30、a mu-ba-ge. They found that brain part responded more strongly to the ABB sequences. In a later study, they found that the newborn brain was also able to tell the difference between audio sequences with an AAB pattern and those with a ABB pattern. Not only could babies notice repetition, they also w

31、ere sensitive to where it came about in the sequence. Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar. Position is key to language. If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big difference: “John killed the bear” is very di

32、fferent from “The bear killed John.” Elsewhere, researchers led by Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by television, audio books, the Internet, or smart phone doesnt appear to be enough for childrens development. They carried out a study of nine-month-old American babies. The researche

33、rs expected the group whod watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the group who experienced the same sounds face to face. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies exposed to the language through human interactions were able to tell the difference between similar Chine

34、se sounds as well as native listeners. But the other babies - no matter whether they had watched the video or listened to the audio - showed no learning at all. “We were blown away.” Kuhl says. “It changed our original thinking about the brain.” The result of this suggests that social experience is

35、necessary for a childs development. 28. What did Gervains research find? A. Babies brains could recognize different sound patterns.B. Audio processing was not well developed in newborn babies. C. Which brain part was used to process speed. 8D. Babies brains could understand grammar. 29. What is the

36、main conclusion from Kuhls study? A. Brain development is improved by interacting with people.B. Its important to expose babies to language from many sources. C. Foreign languages help a babys brain develop. D. Nine-month-olds brains develop the quickest. 30. How did Kuhl feel at the result of the s

37、tudy on nine-month-olds? A. Moved. B. Confused. C. Surprised. D. Encouraged. 31. Which opinion is supported by the text? A. Babies shouldnt be allowed to watch TV. B. We can influence the way a childs brain develops. C. Babies brains develop in the same way at the beginning. D. Early exposure to aud

38、io programs advances brain development. DChina suffers choking smog, mass destruction of habitats and food poisoned with heavy metals. But ask an environmentalist what is the countrys biggest problem, and the answer is always the same. “Water is the worst,” says Wang Tao, of the Carnegie Tsinghua Ce

39、ntre in Beijing, “because of its shortage, and because of its pollution.” “Without water,” agrees Pan Jiahua, of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, “people cannot survive in a desert.” Wang Shucheng, a former water minister, once said, “To fight for every drop of water or die. That is the chall

40、enge facing China.” He was not exaggerating.China uses 600 billion cubic meters of water a year. The national average hides an even more alarming regional difference. Four fifths of Chinas water is in the south, particularly the Yangtze river basin. Half the people and two thirds of the farmland are

41、 in the north, including the Yellow River basin. Beijing has the sort of water shortage usually associated with Saudi Arabia: just 100 cubic meters per person a year.The water available for use is thus so bad. Song Lanhe, chief engineer for 9urban water quality monitoring at the housing ministry, sa

42、ys only half the water sources in cities are safe to drink. More than half the groundwater in the north China plain cannot be used for industry, while seven tenths is unfit for human contact, even for washing.The best answer would be to improve the efficiency with which water is used. Only about 40%

43、 of water used in industry is recycled, half as much as in Europe. The rest is dumped in rivers and lakes. Wang Zhansheng of Tsinghua University argues that China is neglecting its urban water infrastructure, leading to more waste. Water prices in most cities are only about a tenth of the level in b

44、ig European cities, yet the government is unwilling to raise them, for fear of a popular criticism. The result is that Chinas “water productivity” is low.Rather than making wise reforms in pricing and water protection, China is focusing on increasing supplies. The best known such project is the Thre

45、e Gorges dam on the Yangtze. But this year an even vaster project-the South North Water Diversion Project (南水北调工程）is due to start. It will link the Yangtze with the Yellow River, taking water from the wet south to the dry north. When finished, it is intended to deliver 45 billion cubic meters of wat

46、er a year and to cost a total of 486 billion yuan ($79.4 billion).The environmental damage could be huge. The Yangtze is already seriously polluted. The project so far has reduced the quantity of underwater life in the Yangtze by over two thirds. And that was before it even opened. Ma Jun, Chinas be

47、st known environmental activist, says, “the governments preference for giant engineering projects only makes matters worse, causing us to hit the limits of our water resources. The water crisis is driving China to desperate but eventually unhelpful measures.”32. From the first two paragraphs we know

48、 that _.A. water is badly polluted in most of the area of ChinaB. the water in China is unfit for people to survive in a desertC. Wang Shucheng was sad about Chinas futureD. people in North China are facing a more serious water shortage1033. China can raise “water productivity” by _.A. offering dive

According to the author, the South North Water Diversion Project is _.A. a vast and significant project B. a huge and promising projectC. a giant but unsuccessful project D. a costly but effective projec
