there is a long way towards ourgoals and that when we put our talents and passion to work,we determine our value.Like a lot of places across the country,theres poverty,crime,violence and unemployment in Harvey.Andgrowing up there,a lot of people have tragically low expectations for life.But I know that with the rightopportunity and with help along the way,everyone can find their passion and go

use among 1,043 studentsbetween the ages of 18 and 30at Kings College London.Researchers asked the students to complete twoquestionnaires on their sleep quality and smartphone use,in person and online.Using a 10-question scale that was developed to judge smartphone addiction in children,nearly 40%of theuniversity students qualified as addicted to smartphones,the study found.“Our findings are in agreement withother reported studies in young adult populations globally,which are in the range of 30-45%,”lead author Sei YonSohn and her co-authors wrote in the study.Later time of use was also significantly connected with smartphoneaddiction,with use after 1 a.m.increasing a 3-times risk,the authors wrote.Students who reported high use of smartphones also reported poor sleep quality,the study found.That foilsin line with previous studies that have found overuse of smartphones at night to be associated with trouble fallingasleep,reduced sleep duration(睡眠持续时间)and daytime tiredness.Thats likely because use of smartphonesclose to bedtime has been shown to delay the bodys normal sleep-and-wake clock.In fact,the No.1 rule is no computers,cell phones,and ipads in bed and at least one hour beforebed Dr.Vsevolod Polotsky,who directs sleep basic research,said in a recent interview.Thats because any LED lightsource from electronics(电子设备)may further hold back melatonin(褪黑激素)levels,Polotsky said.Melatoninis often referred to as a sleep hormone,because we sleep better during the night when levels reach the top.“This is a cross-sectional study,and it cannot lead to any firm conclusions about smartphone use as the causeof reduced sleep quality,said Bob Patton,a lecturer in clinical psychology at the University of Surrey,via email.8.How did Sei Yon Sohns team begin their study?A.By publishing researching papers.B.By responding to others concern.C.By collecting firsthand data.D.By turning to related experts.9.What did the study find about sleep quality and smartphone use?A.30-45%of the university students are addicted to smartphones.B.High use of smartphones is related to poor sleep quality.C.Overuse of smartphones leads to shorter sleep duration.D.Use after 1 a.m.will result in smartphone addiction.10.What is Polotskys opinion on electronics?A.We should stop using them an hour before going to sleep.B.LED light source from them will delay normal sleep-and-wake clock.C.Reduced sleep quality has nothingto do with them.D.No electronics should be used in bed at any time.11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Say No to SmartphonesB.Sleep Quality Can Be ImprovedC.LED Light Source Causes Great HarmD.Smartphone Addiction Ruins SleepDFor decades,an organization,called Ulum Dalska,based in a small Swedish town called Alvdalen,hasbeenworking hard to help save a language called EIfdalian.Elfdalian sounds nothing like the countrys national language,Swedish,which press secretary Bjorm Rehnstrom said affected the language about 100 years ago.At that point,Elfdalian declined.Ulla Schitt,also a Ulum Dalska member,experienced the change while growing up in Alvdalen.“My parents spoke Efdalian with each other,and with my grandma and my aunts and uncles and everyonearound,”Schit said.“But when they turned to me,they spoke Swedish.”Schitt said her parents spoke Swedish withher because thats what was spoken in schools.But people are getting creative in the fight to change that trend.Musicians are creating new songs withElfdalian.Several childrens books were also translated into EIfdalian,including Le Petit Prince by Antoine deSaint-Exupery.Additionally,Bjorm Rehnstrom helps run a popular Facebook group that offers courses in theElfdalian language,where he offers lessons to the groups 1,800 global members from America,Australia,SouthAmerica,Indonesia,Haiti and Cape Verde.The local government supports the teaching and preservation of Elfdalian.Bjom Rehnstrom said they eagerlypaid for a sign that reads:“Welcome to Alvdalen”in Elfdalian.But the national government of Sweden is adifferent story.They currently consider Eidalian a dialect of Swedish,not its own language.Schitt said every time a language dies it is a sad moment.To her,losing Elfdalian would be an especially tragic(悲剧的)loss.“Its a part of our identity.Its part of our culture,”she said.“And if part of your identity and culturedies,a part of yourself dies.”Getting Elfdalian recognized as a language by the Swedish government,she added,iskey to making sure that death doesnt come.12.Why was Ulum Dalska founded?A.To teach Swedish.B.To save Elfdalian.C.To improve Alvdalen.D.To help schools.13.Why Schitts parents spoke Swedish with her?A.They could only speak Swedish fluently.B.Schitt longed to speak Swedish at home.C.Swedish was the language of schools.D.It was required by her school teachers,14.What can we infer from paragraph 4?A.Many people are trying to help to save Elfdalian.B.Songs in Elfdalian are becoming more popular.C.Le Petit Prince was translated into various languages.D.Courses in Eldalian are provided to the world freely.15.What does Schitt think of preserving Elfdalian?A.Satisfactory.B.Vital.C.Dangerous.D.Meaningless.第二节（共第二节（共 5 5 小题；每小题小题；每小题 2 2 分，满分分，满分 1 10 0 分）分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项Fast fashion is clothings equivalent(等同物）to fast
