My head was s full f digital nise that it felt like my brain was abut t blw a fuse (导火线).I had n greater pwer f cncentratin than the lifeless stare f a gldfish.As a writer I was ashamed t admit that my lve f bks had been cmprmised by a brain that simply culd nt sit still.
S, this year I cmmitted myself t restring bks t the place that they held in my life befre the Internet brke my brain.
My gal was 52 bks: It seemed like an impssible task. A 400-page bk will take the average persn arund eight hurs t read. Finding the time t read was a challenge but here's hw I did it. Firstly, I decided t treat my mind like a misbehaving child wh needs sme rules laid dwn.Then I decided that I wuld read fr an hur r tw at a time withut distractin each day. It was smething I hadn't dne in years and it was scary hw difficult it was.
In his bkThe Distracted Mind, Larry Rsen says that the mre we practice spending time away frm ur electrnic devices, the calmer and mre fcused we becme. And this is what I fund. Again and again, I wuld gently bring myself back t the page, resisting the urge t reach fr that screen. I tk inspiratin frm Niki Gemmell, wh describes in On Quiet, hw investing in a safe t lck away her family's devices fr lng perids had pened up a space fr deep reflectin. Fr me, finding that quiet time meant finding time in my day just t read. It was like a date between me and my bk. And it meant actively chsing t read at times when I nrmally wuld reach fr my phne. I read n the tram, at the park, in bed at night and n lunch breaks.
By reawakening my lve with bks I created a sacred space where I culd press pause and fund inspiratin knwledge, reflectin and escape. In ur mdern wrld, reading is a pwerful and beneficial way fr us t slw dwn and be urselves.
24. What was the first thing the authr did t achieve the gal?
A. The authr went t the bkstre t buy bks.
B. The authr was determined t regulate himself.
C. The authr was buried in reading fr an hur r tw at nce.
D. The authr decided t get invlved in reading with peple arund.
25. What is the authr’s attitude twards electrnic devices?
A. FavrableB. AmbiguusC. DubtfulD. Critical
26. What can we infer abut the authr?
A. The authr benefited a lt frm reading bks.
B. The authr gt inspiratin when he reached fr the screen.
C. The authr wuld rather read bks utdrs than indrs.
D. The authr was reminded t kill time with electrnic devices.
27. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Ging back t the bksB. Falling in lve with reading

Pssible discvery f the first planet utside ur galaxy
Signs f a planet transiting (经过) a star utside f the Milky Way galaxy may have been detected fr the first time. This intriguing result, using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatry, pens up a new windw t search fr explanets at greater distances than ever befre. The pssible explanet candidate is lcated in the spiral galaxy Messier 51 (M51), als called the Whirlpl galaxy because f its distinctive prfile.
“We are trying t pen up a whle new arena fr finding ther wrlds by searching fr planet candidates at X-ray wavelengths, a strategy that makes it pssible t discver them in ther galaxies,” said Rsanne Di Stefan f the Center fr Astrphysics I Harvard & Smithsnian (CfA), wh led the study, which was published Mnday in Nature Astrnmy.
Because the regin prducing bright X-rays is small, a planet passing in frnt f it culd blck mst r all f the X-rays, making the transit easier t spt because the X-rays can cmpletely disappear. This culd allw explanets t be detected at much greater distances than current ptical light transit studies, which must be able t detect tiny decreases in light because the planet nly blcks a tiny part f the star.
The team used this methd t detect the explanet candidate in a binary system (双星系统) called M51-ULS-1, lcated in M51. This binary system cntains a black hle r neutrn star r biting a cmpanin star with a mass abut 20 times that f the sun. The X-ray transit they fund using Chandra data lasted abut three hurs, during which the X-ray emissin decreased t zer. Based n this and ther infrmatin, the researchers estimate the explanet candidate in M51-ULS-1 wuld be rughly the size f Saturn, and rbit the neutrn star r black hle at abut twice Saturn’s distance frm the sun.
While this is a tantalizing (引起好奇心的) study, mre data wuld be needed t cnfirm the understanding as an extragalactic (银河系外的) explanet. One challenge is that the planet candidate’s large rbit means it wuld nt crss in frnt f its binary partner again fr abut 70 years, thwarting (阻碍) any attempts fr a cnfirming bservatin fr decades.
28. What is the significance f the new finding fr future study?
A. It has distinctive result.
B. It pens up explratin at lnger distance.
C. It uses NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatry.
D. It detects a star utside f the Milky Way fr the first time.
29. Accrding t Rsanne Di, hw did they try t find explanets?
A. By using X-ray wavelengths t lk fr explanets.
B. By discvering explanets in ther galaxies.
C. By pening up a whle new arena.
D. By finding ther wrlds.
30. What des this refer t in paragraph 4?
A. Chandra dataB. X-ray emissin
C. The decrease f X-rayD. The X-ray transit that lasted three hurs
31. What’s the team’s future fcus?
A. Thwart attemptsB. Tantalize the study
C. Cnfirm bservatinD. Find mre infrmatin

Figuring ut bidiversity patterns and detecting rare r just-gd-at-hiding species has lng psed challenges fr ecsystem mnitring and cnservatin effrts. Traditinal survey methds are labr intensive and cver limited areas. Nw, emerging envirnmental DNA (eDNA) techniques pen new pssibilities.
Scientists cllect water r sil samples frm an envirnment and extract any DNA traces left behind by rganisms. This is the envirnmental DNA (eDNA). They then use ne f the tw analysis methds-quantitative PCR (qPCR)r DNA sequencing. Similar t COVID tests, qPCR is used t detect if a specific species’ DNA is in the sample. Fr example, researchers tested river water eDNA t see if endangered fish X was present. When it was detected, they cnfirmed that the fish lived in that river withut directly seeing it. DNA sequencing analyzes all DNA in the sample at nce. Scientists can then match the DNA barcdes t databases t identify which species were in the sampled envirnment.
Althugh eDNA sampling cannt identify new species r thse nly knwn frm phts and vides if they are nt already listed in the reference databases, the real pwer f it lies in its ability t capture a wide range f rganisms. With just ne sample, scientists can detect all kinds f living things, frm bacteria t whales, in almst any envirnment where life exists, including the deep sea and undergrund caves. One f the mst significant advantages f eDNA sampling is that it allws scientists t detect species that are difficult t see r capture. This is particularly useful when studying rare r very small species, r when wrking in envirnments like dark water where visibility is limited.
This is just the start. Imagine a future where eDNA data culd be cllected frm the mst remte ceans by autnmus vehicles, analyzed by the drne (无人机) r n bard a research vessel, and integrated with ther mnitring data s marine managers and the public can see near-real-time data abut the cnditin f the cean. Science fictin? Nt any mre.
32. What can we infer frm paragraph 1?
A. Finding ut species diversity is difficult fr related scientists.
B. The previus research methds are cmpletely depend n labr.
C. eDNA techniques culd make up fr sme limitatins psed by the traditinal ne.
D. eDNA techniques have already substituted traditinal survey methds.
33. What’s the advantage f eDNA sampling?
A. It can detect species frm phts and vides.
B. It can help scientists capture endangered species.
C. It imprves adaptability t different researching envirnments.
D. It can identify any living creature with a sample f it.
34. What culd eDNA data be applied t in the future?
A. Studying micrbial cmmunities.
B. Analyzing diversity changes ver time.
C. Cllecting species in new envirnments.
D. Offering statistics fr cean supervisin.
35. What’s the main idea f the text?
A. New bidiversity mnitring techniques are arund the crner.
B. Traditinal survey methds are abandned fr their shrtcmings.
C. Rare species have been discvered with tw analysis methds.
D. Scientists have made a breakthrugh in undersea research.

Del seemed unhappy, t.
He did nt return t class that day. All f us were discussing what had happened t him. What else culd such an annying by d? “He must have hit the by and was sent hme,” I whispered t my friends. Their eyes widened. It felt gd t see them s interested in what I said.
The next mrning, the whle schl was talking abut Del being expelled(开除) fr beating up a kid. I was surprised that my assumptins were passed n s quickly. S when Del walked int the classrm, all the kids were shcked. The kids next t him shift ed their desks away. “What’s yur prblem?” Del asked. “I dn’t want yu t attack me,” ne kid said. Sme laughed. “Yeah, I might,” said Del. I culd tell he was jking, but many kids thught he admitted he did beat up smene.
During recess(课间休息), Del tried t jin the kickball game. “Neither team wants yu,” ne f the players said. “Why?” Del asked, lking cnfused. “I always play with yu guys.” They ignred him and went n playing. Del sat by himself while the rest f the schl enjyed their recess away frm him. Del lked lnely and sad, much different frm befre. I started t feel srry fr him.
