Teens who spend hours on the Internet may be at risk for high blood pressure. Researchers found that teens who spent at least 14 hours a week on the Internet had their blood pressure increased. Of 134 teens described by researchers as heavy Internet users,26 had higher blood pressure.
This is believed to be the only study to show a link between time spent on the Internet and high blood pressure. The findings add to growing research that has shown an association between heavy Internet use and other health risks like anxiety,depression,obesity and social isolation.
“Using the Internet is part of our daily life,but it shouldn’ t destroy us,” says Andrea,a researcher at Henry Ford's Department of Public Health Sciences and the study's lead author. uIn our study,teens considered heavy Internet users were on the Internet an average of 25 hours a week. It's important that young people take regular breaks from their computers or smartphones,and engage in some form of physical activity. I recommend children to limit their time at home on the Internet. I think two hours a day,five days a week is OK."
Andrea says school nurses could condudt annual health screenings (檢查) in which blood pressure and Internet use behavior could be assessed. Students with high blood pressure would then have a follow-up visit to determine the next step.
Researchers analyzed data collected from 335 teens aged 14 to 17 who participated in the study. Participants completed a 5 5-question survey of their Internet use during one week. Researchers found that teens spent an average of 15 hours a week on the Internet at either school or home; 39 percent of girls were heavy Internet users compared to 43 percent of boys; 43 percent of heavy Internet users were considered overweight compared to 26 percent of light Internet users.
5. What do we know about the study?
A. It linked high blood pressure with Internet use,
B. It was designed by teqis with high blood pressure.
C. It was aimed at studying the causes of high blood pressure.
D. It found heavy Internet users were likely to have mental problems:
6. Andrea advises teens to .
A. have regular checkups
B. limit their time at home
C. spend less time on the Internet
D. take regular breaks from their study
7. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. 43 percent of teens were light Internet users.
B. Nearly half the boys were heavy Internet users.
C. Most teens spent 14 hours a week on the Internet.
D. Boys spent 15 hours a week on physical activity.
8. From which part of a newspaper is the text probably taken?
A. Job. B. Health.
C. Fashion. D. Entertainment.

一項(xiàng)研究表明,青少年上網(wǎng)過(guò)多會(huì)引起血壓升局。
5. A. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的This is believed to be the only study to show a link between time spent on the Internet and high blood pressure 可知,這項(xiàng)研宄把上網(wǎng)時(shí)間和高血壓聯(lián)系起來(lái)。
6. C. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的I recommend children to limit their time at home on the Internet可,Andrea認(rèn)為青少年應(yīng)控制上網(wǎng)時(shí)間。

School-age children who do charity work are likely to display better moral judgments than those who play sport,according to a large-scale national survey conducted by Birmingham University.
The survey of 10 ,000 pupils aged 14 and 15 in secondary schools across the UK found that more than half failed to identify what researchers described as good judgments when responding to a series of moral dilemmas,leading researchers to call for schools to have a more active role in teaching character and morality.
“A good grasp of moral virtues,such as kindness,honesty and courage,can help children to succeed as human beings,and can also l^ad to improvements in the classroom. And that level of understanding needs to be educated and encouraged/' said Prof James Arthur from Birmingham University.
Overall onlv 42% of students’ responses matched those selected by a group of experts. Students wno saia they did charity work outside of school scored 50% . Those doing music (48%) or drama (48%) were also better able to make good moral judgments. Contrary to popular opinion,students who said they participated in port did not show better moral juagmenib. me researchers also found that girls displayed greater moral : awareness than boys in all areas,with 47% of girls making the right choices compared with just 37% of boys.
The Department for Education (DfE) has recently encouraged the teaching of moral values,but a majority of teachers surveyed as part of the research said the focus on academic attainment prevented the development of students’ character. A Dffi spokesperson said, “Character education is a central part of our plan for education. That”s why we are investing £10 million to help ensure pupils develop the virtues they need to succeed in both their academic studies and in later life.
But the researchers found that a school s GCSE(普
通中等教育證書(shū)) results did not seem to influence the moral dilemma results among students. UA school with below-average GCSE results could still rank highly when itcomestomoraldilemmas” the researchers noted.
9. Which is a finding of the research?
A. Students playing sport showed better moral judgments.
B. Less than half the students surveyed made right moral choices.
C. Girls knew more about making choices than boys.
D. Those involved in the arts had the highest scores.

11. According to the text,more attention should be given to .

Several years ago,my wife and I spent a few days in Berlin,staying at the Park Inn in Alexanderplatz,where we got an unusual surprise.
We arrived in the afternoon,tired from our early flight,and were checked in by a rather formal young man. We decided to have a lie down for ten minutes before exploring the city. As I lay down with my eyes half shut,I saw a shadow pass the window.,aProbably a seagull
I thought. Then the same thing happened again,but this time there was a cry coming through the balcony doors.
I got up,opened the sliding doors and went out onto the balcony to investigate — just in time to see a human body screaming past me towards the square below before safely (變慢) just a few meters from the ground. I found out it's a sport called base jumping (高處跳傘).
Once we knew what was happening,we got used to. it. It went on for a short time each day,and it was only the people that laughed loudly as they went down that disturbed me. (I tried to persuade my wife to have a go,but she said no!)
On our last day,we checked out and the same rnsenW (寡言少語(yǔ)的) young man served us. “I hope that you enjoyed your stay,” he said.
“Actually,” I replied, “it would have been nice to have been warned when we checked in about the base jumpers falling past our balcony."
He paused and considered for a moment,ay/zckr (閃 現(xiàn)) of a smile appearing on one side of his mouth. “Yeah,” he said. “Perhaps we should warn people in the fliture." I knew that he wouldn,t. It was their little joke. Berliners,believe it or not,have a famous sense of humor.

A. Visit the city. B. Take a hot bath.
