Nowadays, many children spend hours a day looking at computer screens or other digital products. Some eye doctors say all the screen time has caused more children to have what they call computer vision syndrome (视力综合症).
Nathan Warford is an optometrist (配镜师) in the US. He says he has seen more children having eye problems.
“More children come into my office because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red eyes, or because their degree of short-sightedness appears to be increasing very fast and they’re worried,” he said.
Dr. Warford says part of the problem is that even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, some children don’t tell their parents, because they don’t want their games or the computer to be taken away.
Another part of the problem is that people blink (眨眼睛) less often when they look at the screen.
A person who uses a computer or a digital product blinks about one third as much as we normally do in everyday life. If eyes can’t stay wet or are too tired, they will not be protected like normal.
31. Which of the following isn’t caused by too much screen time?
A. Having headaches. B. Having wet eyes.
C. Having red eyes. D. Having tired eyes.
32. Some children don’t tell their parents when their eyes start to feel uncomfortable
because .
A. they think it is not serious B. they want to go to hospital themselves
C. they don’t want their parents to worry D. they want to continue playing computer games
33. People blink as they normally do when they use computers.
8
A. one third as much B. two thirds as much
C. half as much D. one fourth as much
34. From the passage, we can learn that .
A. tears can’t protect eyes B. less screen time is good for eyes
C. children should blink as much as possible
D. an optometrist can’t help children with their eye problems at all
35. What is the passage mainly about?
A. People who often get headaches. B. Some information about the latest digital products.
C. Dr. Warford’s experience of working out eye problems.
D. Eye problems in children caused by using digital products.
C
Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes (基因) decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too. If you have questions about how tall you're going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out.
But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential (潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.
No doubt you’re wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. There’s no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about two inches (six centimeters) a year between age three and the time when they start puberty.
Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimeters here and two inches there are not nearly as important as the height you' re at now, how you’ve been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through.
Don’t be nervous if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt (高峰) during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later, between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.
You'll usually begin to notice that you’re growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.
36. If you want to know how tall you are going to grow, .
A. you should have enough exercise
B. you can ask your doctor for help
C. you should have a healthy diet
D. you can record your growth during puberty
37. We can know from the passage .
A. how good it is to be a doctor B. how much sleep time we need
C. why genes can't decide everything D. what is a healthy diet for children
38. The underlined word “puberty” means in Chinese.
A. 婴幼儿时期 B. 童年时期
C. 习惯养成期 D. 生长发育期
39. Which is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Genes decide whether children are clever or not.
B. Girls' age for starting puberty is usually earlier than boys'.
C. You may be nervous sometimes when you grow too fast.
D. Your height most probably depends on how tall your parents are.
8
40. The main idea of the passage is about .
A. the time of children’s puberty
B. the time at which girls grow the most
C. the changes of boys’ height at different ages
D. the factors(因素) that have effect on children’s height

For children, the first day of school is their first step into a new world. This important day can be made special by planning some interesting activities. For example, you can ask each of the students to introduce themselves in a unique way. Appreciate (欣赏) the good ideas that the children have for describing themselves.
It’s also a good idea to organize “silent learning”. In this activity, you need to supply paper and color to each of your students. Ask them to draw anything they like. To make it special, you can ask them to draw something in particular. To make it interesting, you can give it the name of a human emotion (情感) and ask them to describe it in their own words.
Also you can tell your students everything about the school. You can tell them some of your experiences in this school. You can write down your experiences and that can be made up into an interesting story. You can take this chance to encourage the children to take part in all the school activities. You can make use of this chance to help the students get rid of (消除) their little fears about the new school. You can give the students a chance to ask questions and share their views.
Getting the students together to decorate (装饰) the classroom is also a good activity for the first day of school. You can join them in this activity and help them. Let the students come up with ideas for decorating the classroom; allow them to use their imagination in the decoration and make the classroom look nice.
