People have started refusing the mattress and taking better care of their health after the media reported on a number of people who died due to overwork last year.And
8、 last, but not least, the mobile phone.A surgeon from a Beijing hospital says more and more white-collar workers are turning up with a strange disease which they call “mobile phone elbow”.

Modern Inventions and OverworkBResearchers at Stanford University have developed a new material that can move heat out of buildings and into space. The researchers say the material can cool buildings even on hot days. The cooling material
13、is a very thin sheet with many layers that could be placed on a roof like solar panels(板). However, instead of turning sunlight into energy as solar panels do, the material turns heat into infrared(红外线的) radiation.Shanhui Fan is an electrical engineering professor at Stanford University. He says tha
14、t the panels have a layer of material that is like sand. The panels act like a mirror. They take heat out of buildings and reflect the light from the sun. And he says both the heat and sunlight are sent 100 kilometers into outer space. “Its a structure that cools itself without electricity input, ev
15、en under the sun. So, what it does is basically radiate heat to outer space and also reflect the sunlight so it doesnt get heated up by the sun. Mr. Fan says it is like having a window into space. The heat is sent directly into space without increasing the air temperatureHe says buildings in develop
16、ing countries that do not have electricity or air conditioning could use the panels. “In areas where electricity is out of reach for many people, there is a potential benefit for storing medicine or even food. In many of these situations, being able to reduce the temperature is important. And this w
17、ould provide a way to do it.”The researchers say the main problem is creating actual cooling systems using the high-tech panels. They say it may be possible to develop a cooling spray(喷涂）that could be used on present solid structures. They believe the cooling spray technology could be developed in t

22、school to college, which worries both parents and teachers a lot. In my opinion, several reasons result in this phenomenon.The most significant reason is that the rise of many other information Media, for example, internet, mobile phone, TV and so on. In the past we only could read newspapers to kno
23、w what happened around us, while now we only need to turn on the TV, or open our computers, which is more convenient. In addition, computer and other media provide us with more newly news and more specific details, which we can get easily and without payment. There is also an advantage that the new
24、media have while newspapers donta large mount of pictures, which make the information or news more lively. Therefore, more and more students tend to surf the internet or watch TV instead of reading newspapers.Another reason that few students read newspapers is that they have little time to do such t
25、hings. We all know that nowadays students, especially middle school and high school students are buried in the books almost every day to get good grades. Even in weekends, they are sent to heterogeneous cram school by their parents to become superior in school. Thus there is little free time for the
26、m to do other things, not to mention reading newspapers.The student indifference to the current affairs also enables few newspaper readers. The 90s, most of todays students, always pay more attention to fashion and only care for themselves. Lacking a sense of collectivism and nationalism, the majori
27、ty of the 90s have little interest in current affairs, which are the basic content of most newspapers, so that there are fewer and fewer students reading newspapers.Different outside and inside reasons have contributed to the few newspaper readers among students. Therefore, teachers should encourage
28、 their students to form the habit of reading newspapers regularly and free the students from their heavy study burden so that they can afford to broaden their horizon through newspapers, which is beneficial for their future development.29. According to Paragraph 2, few students read newspapers becau
29、se .A. reading newspapers isnt good for them to get good gradesB. they are more interested in fashion than current affairsC. its cheaper and easier to get information from the Internet or TVD. they can only know what is happening via the Internet or on TV30. It can be inferred from the passage that
30、.A. its better for students to gain information via the Internet than other mediaB. high school students are too busy with their study nowC. more and more students are addicted to the Internet nowD. more students will fall in love with newspapers31. What does the author mostly want to tell us in the
31、 passage?A. There are many advantages of reading newspapers.B. There are reasons why few students read newspapers.C. The advantages of surfing the Internet are obvious.D. Its very important to read newspapers.DThe traditional news media in America has been having a rough time in the last few years.
32、According to a recent survey, more Americans have a negative(43%) than a positive(33%) view of the news media, and are finding it harder to be well informed because it is getting harder to determine which news is accurate.The problem is preference. While ideally the media should be objective and hol
33、d power to account, in reality we know that most news outlets belong to a certain party and have their own agenda to advance. Whether state-owned or run by some shady tax-avoiding billionaire, getting “the masses” to view the world from a certain perspective has always been a priceless power to wiel
34、d.So why is trust in the media so low? Well, according to the same survey, 8 out of 10 Americans believe that the news media are critical to their democracy. The gap between these noble expectations of an honest, objective media and the performance that they actually deliver is large. Times when the
35、 mask slips and examples of media manipulation(操纵) are exposed are hugely damaging to trust, and people naturally turn to social media for others, even-easier-to-manipulate sources. Thus we are in the current state in which we find ourselves:confused and mistrustful.People have been posting examples
36、 of how media can use different techniques of deception, to trick you into seeing exactly what they wanted you to see. As you will discover, perspective really is everything! It will goes to show that a healthy dose of skepticism goes a long way, and getting your news from a wide range of different
37、sources is your best bet to a more rounded view of the world we live in. Social media is good in that respect, but bad in terms of regulation, trolling and people shouting horrible things at each other.

The media have acted as a tool to mask the truth.D. The media have a priceless power.33. Whats your understanding of th

People should not be too curious about things aroundC. People should refer to social media rather than traditional media if wanting to know th
40、e truth of news.D. The spirit of suspect and diverse sources are good ways to help people recognize the truth of the world.34. What s the structure of the passage?A. B. C. D. 35. What the best title for the passage?A. Wheres trust in the mediaB. Why peoples trust in the media fallsC. How people trea

These
42、 tips can help keep disagreements constructive.Use “I” to communicate how you feel, what you think and what you want or need. 37 For example, telling your parents “You always remind me about my housework when you know I have much homework” has a very different tone from “Im feeling pressured because
43、 I have a lot of homework tonight. Can I do those chores tomorrow?”Listen to the others opinion. 38 That makes it more likely that he or she will do the same for you.
