Masks that helped save lives during the Covid-19 pandemic(疫情)are proving a deadly risk for wildlife, with birds and sea creatures trapped in many facial coverings in animal habitats.
Single-use masks have been found on the ground, waterways and beaches worldwide since countries required(heir use in public places to slow the pandemic's spread. Worn once, the thin protective materials can take hundreds of years to break down. \"Face masks aren't going away any time soon-but when we throw them away, these items can harm the environment and the animals who share our planet,\" Ashley from anima! rights group PETA said.
Monkeys have been found playing with used masks in the hills outsideMalaysia's capitalKuala Lumpur. And in an incident inBritain, a seagull was saved inChelmsfordafter its legs got caught in an abandoned mask for a week.
However, the biggest influence is in the water. More than 1.5 billion masks made their way into the world's oceans last year, accounting for around 6200 extra tons of ocean plastic pollution, according to environmental group OceansAsia. “Masks and gloves are particularlyproblematicfor sea creatures,\" says George Leonard, chief scientist from NGO. \"When those plastics break down in the environment, they form smaller and smaller particles(颗粒).Those particles then enter the food chain and influence the entire ecosystem,“ he added.
Campaigners have urged people to deal with masks properly after using them. OceansAsia has also called on governments to increase punishment for littering and encourage the use of washable masks. 4. What bring(s)a great danger to wildlife now? A. Waste masks. B. Covid-19.
C. Polluted water. D. Damaged habitats.
5. What does the underlined word “problematic”in paragraph 4 mean? A. Important. B. Attractive. C. Common. D. Troubling.
6. What can we infer from the text?
A. Monkeys learned to wear masks from humans. B. Plastics are less harmful after becoming particles. C. Used masks have a worse effect on sea creatures. D. Waste masks arc the main ocean plastic pollution. 7. How should we solve the problem from the last paragraph? A. Keep masks after they' re used. B. Call on governments to stop littering. C. Punish those who wear single-use masks. D. Put used masks in the recycling box.
C
TOKYO—Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga told the media on Monday if any places hosting events of the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics declare a state of emergency due to the COVID-19 epidemic during the games, the events will continue to beheld but without spectators (观众). With one month to go before the games are due to begin on July 23, Suga is again showing his administration’s determination to hold the Olympic Games as planned, despite so much pressure from various parties urging it tocancel the event.
Although the Japanese government regards the Tokyo Olympics as an important opportunity to improve its soft power, the Japanese people’s enthusiasm for the Games has been continuously dented (挫伤) since they were postponed last year. The resurgence (再猖獗) of the novel coronavirus in some places is Japan in recent months has cast a shadow over people’s confidence that the Olympics will not give rise to new clusters (群) of infections, and there are fears that the Games will provide new channels for the virus’ global transmission.
Some torchbearers from Japan have withdrawn from the Olympic torch relay in the country. And the latest survey indicates only 34 percent of Japanese people support holding the games as scheduled. Predictably, the Suga administration will do all it can to try to ensure the games go ahead. But it remains to be seen whether it can stand the tests of the uncertainties related to epidemic prevention and control that might happen during the Games.
Since it has not yet got the virus under control at home, the people have reasons to question is ability to deal with the prevention and control work when large numbers of participants will be flocking to Japan from around the world in a short time. It is to be hoped that Japan can draw lessons from the organization of epidemic prevention and control work during the ongoing UEFA European Championship, carry out strict epidemic
prevention and control measures, and be prepared for emergencies to guarantee the safety and success of the Olympics at this special time.
It should be a common wish of the whole world that the Tokyo Olympics can become a stage showing unity and resolve of human beings in their fight against the virus. That willendowthe games with special meaning beyond sports.
8. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The virus’ global transmission. B. People’ worry about the infections. C. The resurgence of the novel coronavirus. D. The benefit of holding the Tokyo Olympics.
9. How do about one third of Japanese people like holding the games as planned?
A. Uncertain. B. Negative. C. Approving. D. Indifferent. 10. Which of the following words can replace the underlined word “endow” in the last paragraph? A. Compare. B. Equip. C. Provide. D. Charge. 11. What can be the best title for the news report? A. Japan can ensure Olympics go ahead B. Olympics big test for Japanese government C. Japanese people’s enthusiasm for the Games
D. Japan to carry out strict epidemic prevention during the Games
D
Happiness is not a warm phone, according to a new study exploring the link between young life satisfaction and screen time. The study was led by professor of psychology Jean M. Twenge at San Diego State University (SDSU).
To research this link, Twenge, along with colleagues Gabrielle Martin at SDSU and W. Keith Campbell at the University of Georgia, dealt with data from the Monitoring the Future (MtF) study, a nationally representative survey of more than a million U. S. 8th-, 10th-, and 12th-graders. The survey asked students questions about how often they spent time on their Phones, tablets and computers, as well as questions about their face-to-face social interactions and their overall happiness.
On average found that teens who spent more time in front of screen devices — playing computer games, using social media, texting and video chatting — were less happy than those who invested more time in
non-screen activities like sports, reading newspapers and magazines, and face-to-face social interactions.
\"The key to digital media use and happiness is limited use,\" Twenge said. \"Aim to spend no more than two hours a day on digital media, and try to increase the amount of time you spend seeing friends face-to-face and exercising — two activities reliably linked to greater happiness.\"
Looking at historical trends from the same age groups since the 1990s, it's easy to find that the increase of screen devices over time happened at the same time as a general drop-off in reported happiness inU. S.teens. Specifically, young peopled life satisfaction and happiness declined sharply after 2012. That's the year when the percentage of Americans who owned a smartphone rose above 50 percent. By far the largest change in teens' lives between 2012 and 2016 was the increase in the amount of time they spent on digital media, and the following decline in in-person social activities and sleep.
12. Which method did Twenge's team use for the study? A. Calculating students' happiness. B. Asking students certain questions. C. Analyzing data from a survey. D. Doing experiments on screen time.
13. How does the author develop the finding of the study in paragraph 3? A. By making a comparison. B. By giving an example. C. By making an argument. D. By introducing a concept.
14. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A To draw a conclusion from the study. B. To offer some advice to the readers. C. To prove social activities' importance. D. To support the researchers' finding.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Quitting Phones Equals Happiness B. Screen Time Should Be Banned C. Teens' Lives Have Changed Sharply D. Screen-addicted Teens Are Unhappier

It was a hot day in the middle of July. I decided to walk to the neighborhood store where it sold my favorite thing, ice cream. I pulled a friend towards the ice cream store, almost passing out from the burning sun on the way.
As we walked on, my friend kept saying that it was too hot. She thought that she was stupid to decide to come with me to buy ice cream. I felt sorry and tried to encourage her. “We're almost there. Just think of the cool and sweet taste of ice cream in your mouth. It'll be worth the walk,” I told her. But I had to admit that the store was quite a distance from our houses. During the journey, my mouth began to become dry and I wanted to drink.
When we were about a block away from the store, I noticed an old lady who was walking in our direction. She was about 70 years old. She had a big back problem, so she was unable to keep her back straight. She was struggling, pushing a shopping cart full of things like the soap, bread and water. With each step toward her, we began to see her appearance more clearly. It appeared that she was often unhappy and easy to get angry.
I looked at my friend to see if she had noticed her. I could see that she had and that she disliked the old lady due to the lady's appearance. As we approached the lady pushing the shopping cart, my friend directed me away from the old lady and the cart.
I began to observe other passers-by. They were also trying to avoid her. Suddenly I heard a terrible sound behind me. I quickly turned around to see what it was. I found the lady's cart had been knocked over by something on the ground.
