If we look at our society, we can see that all kinds of people are using smart phones. _36_, I would like to suggest that all smart phones in the family should be put away for sixty to ninety minutes each evening.Why? Lets take a _37_ look at what the results of it might be if such a piece of advice was accepted. Families could use the time for a real family hour. Without phones, they might sit around together after dinner and _38_ talk to one another. In fact, many of our problems are _39_ by failure to communicate. By using the quiet family hour to discuss our problems, we might get to know each other better.On evenings when such a talk is _40_, families could discover other active pastimes. They might take a ride or a walk together to free from smart phones. With free time and no smart phones, children and adults might _41_ reading. They might find there is more fun in a good book than in an electronic game. According to some educators, the generation growing up with smart phones can hardly write an English sentence, even at the college level. Actually, writing is often _42_ through adequate reading. So with more time on books, a more literate (有文化的) new generation could be a product of the quiet hour.A _43_ form of reading might also be done as it was in the past: reading aloud. The quiet hour could become the story hour. We may find it hard to return from our newly-discovered activities and _44_ the next story time.How will we spend the time without smart phones? At first glance, it could be very difficult, or almost impossible. The fact is that it has been only ten years since smart phones came to _45_ our time. Those of us at twenty-five or older can remember our childhood without smart phones. It wasnt so difficult as we think.36. A. But B. Although C. Since D. However 37. A. regretful B. new C. strict D. serious 38. A. seldom B. hardly C. actually D. nearly 39. A. caused B. resulted C. led D. made 40. A. boring B. unnecessary C. funny D. interesting 41. A. invent B. produce C. provide D. discover 42. A. improved B. brought C. lifted D. raised 43. A. similar B. different C. strange D. new 44. A. refuse B. expect C. hate D. wait 45. A. waste B. spend C. control D. decide 四、 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。ADo you believe in green living? Read the following blog and comments (评论) about a fun, easy and useful way to make your lifestyle greener.Gina Space 8:32 a.m. 11th February 2020Upcycling Nowadays, we are more wasteful than ever. We need to start living more responsibly-but how? One answer is to upcycle. I started upcycling clothing. Making new things out of old clothes is the best way to mix my talent and my interest. I made a “new” hat for my brother. It used to be my dads sweater. Do you upcycle? If so, what new things have you made? If not, why not give it a try.CommentsTerry-B 9:08 a.m.11th February 2020 Why dont you give your older clothes to people in need? I even give away the most expensive things I dont wear any more. I can help the environment while giving something useful to people in need.Gina 9:28 a.m. 11th February 2020 Good point! Im talking about the clothes that are too old to be worn by others. The same idea goes for food waste at restaurants and supermarkets. Before upcycling food that can still be eaten, for example, using it to make soil rich, we should give it to those in need.Bety99 10:18 a.m.1lth February 2020 Ive made dog toys out of socks. Upcycling clothing is a fun hobby.46. Which of the following doesnt match with “upcycling”?A. Making dog toys out of socks. B. Giving the food to those in need. C. Changing an old sweater into a new hat. D. Throwing away the clothes we dont need.47. According to the passage, Gina _ Terry-Bs opinion.A. agrees with B. disagrees with C. recommends D. doubts 48. Whats the MAIN purpose of this blog article?A. To introduce how to make hats and toys. B. To call on more people to live green. C. To make more friends on the Internet. D. To warn people not to make more waste.B Have you ever shown your photos on your favorite social media (媒体)? Or have you expressed your feelings and emotions on your online page? If yes, do you know what you have posted on the social medias can cause problems you could not expect? Cathy, who is going to be fifteen, posted online an invitation to her birthday party with her address in it. And guess what! 500 people came to the party, and some even broke the windows and plants, making a total mess of the house. The girls birthday party tuned into a nightmare (噩梦). Many teenagers (青少年) think they know everything about social media, and that such a thing could never happen to them. Studies show that each year more than three million young people in the world get into trouble because of their online activities. So do remember these if you really want to share something online. Share with care! Not everyone will like what you write online. Think before you post anything. You never know who sees your texts, pictures or videos. Before clicking “post”, you should ask yourself, “How will I feel if my family or teachers see this?” and “How might this post be bad for me in five or ten years from now?” Be polite when you write! Imagine someone is unfriendly in real life. The same is true of online communication. No one likes it when you “shout” in your messages. If you feel angry or frustrated while youre writing a message, wait a bit. Read it again later and then send it. Protect and respect! Never share your passwords with anyone. Its not wise to post your home or email address online. Dont say bad things about people. If you get messages like that or see them online, talk to your parents or your teachers. Id say none of these things promises 100% online safety, but each will help you to be safer.49. The writer starts to introduce the topic by _. A. telling stories B. giving examples C. asking questions D. sharing experiences 50. The party turned into a nightmare because Cathy _.A. made a total mess of the house.

What does the writer mean by saying the last sentence?A. You should spend much less time online. B. Its necessary to think before you act online.C. You have to make a promise before you go online.D. If you want to be safer online, do as the writer suggests.CFrom tiny seeds (种子), great discoveries grow. A mini-garden carried on Chinas Change 4 moon lander recently became home to the first plant to grow on another world.This is yet another success for Change 4. On January 2, the probe (探测器) became the first lander to touch down on the far side of the moon. This is the unknown face of the moon that is always looking away from us, so we never see it from down here on the earth. Although it is often regarded as the dark side of the moon, the far side actually gets as much sunshine as the near side. For example, when all we can see is a silver of a new moon, the far side of the moon is in full sunlight.Part of Change 4s mission (使命) is to see how a moon base could be built for humans, including exploring (探索) whether humans could grow food and other plant products there. Change4 carried a mini-garden with air, water and soil with seeds planted in it. When plants shoot on the earth, their stems grow away from the gravity (the force that keeps your feet on the ground) and so they always shoot upwards. The moons gravity is a sixth as strong as the earths, so Change 4s experiment was a test: would the earth plants know which way was up on the moon? Four days after landing, a tiny cotton shoot showed that they do.Night has now fallen on the far side of the moon; sunlight will not return until the start of February. As a result, the cotton shoots died. Besides the darkness, the plants cant stand the cold (it can drop to -170 on the moon at night). However, the experiment is a success, since it has proved that it is possible for plants to grow in space.53. The passage is mainly about _.A. another success for Change4 B. Change 4 moon lander C. tiny seeds in the soil D. the steps of an experiment 54. Which of the following is TRUE about Change 4?A. It explored the moon base. B. It landed on the near side of the moon.C. It found plants on the moon.D. It carried a mini-garden.55. According to the passage we can know that _.A. the far side of the moon gets less sunlightB. the earth plants know the way to grow on the moon C. we can see the far side of the moon from the earth D. the stems fail to grow away from the earths gravity56. What can be inferred (推理) from the passage?A. Plants can be grown on the moon soon. B. It is perfect to do experiments on the moon. C. The cotton shoots can last days on the moon. D. We can see a new moon at the start of February.DI was pleased at running away from Long John Silver though I knew he was still somewhere nearby on the island.As I was trying to find a safer place to hide myself, I heard some men talking close by. It was Silver and Tom.“I want you with me!” Silver shouted, “when we have the treasure, theres gold for you too.” “No,” cried Tom, “I told you. Im not a murderer. Youre guilty, all of you!” Sadly, these were the last words of Tom. It was a gunshot, Silvers gun.I moved away quickly and quietly. I ran fast not thinking about the direction I was taking. Suddenly, I saw a figure move quickly from tree to tree. What it was, whether a bear or a man or a monkey? Silver himself appeared less terrible to me now.As the figure was getting closer to me. It was a man. “Who are you?” I asked.“Ben Gunn,” he answered.” “Im poor Ben Gunn, and I havent spoken with a man these three years. Who are you, mate” “Jim,” I told him.“Now, Jim, tell me is that Flints ship?” he asked in fear, pointing to the ship which I ran away from.“No, and Flint is dead. But there are some of Flints hands aboard.”“Not a man. with one. leg?” Ben asked in a tremulous voice, with his pale face and scared eyes.“You mean Silver? He once worked as a cook on the ship.” I added. “Now, he is also on the island to find Flints treasure. He wants to kill us and take over the ship!”“Good boy,” he said, “I was on Flints ship when he buried (埋) the treasure, he and six strong seamen. But, when he returned, he himself alone, and the six all died. How he made it, not a man except him could make out. It was a battle, a murder, and a sudden death - him against six.”Suddenly, the noise of explosions (爆炸) stopped our talking.57. According to the dialogue between Silver
