Air Tag, a small Bluetooth-and-GPS-enabled device, was released by Apple in April 2021.This small device aimed at making our lives easier was originally designed to end the trouble of 1losing keys, wallets or other little objects. However, it may become the "perfect" tracking tool if in the wrong hands. My ex-husband was an early adopter of the AirTag. He and I had a falling out, leading to a divorce battle. In order to win custody battle, he used the little device to track me.

As a tech giant, the Apple company brought great convenience to the users, including me. I had never given a thought to tracking via Air Tag until it happened to me. So I started scanning stories about Air Tag. I was surprisedto find that I was not alone. There were so many people tracked by these seemingly innocent electronic tags in their daily life. AirTag which was originally launched for a better life should have such a dark side in the wrong hands.

People have found that the digital device has the potential for abuse. What matters is how to avoid its danger. Apple has released updates to the AirTag's functionality very quickly since they hit the market. Meanwhile, Apple has also improved its customer service to deal with the bugs of this kind. If you find an unwanted AirTag following you, don 't panic. Just disable it. You can follow the prompts on your Apple device to learn more about disabling the device. Once you've completed the above step, the tag 's original owner can't keep track of you any more.

Almost every digital technology creates security issues. Nobody can go and live in a cave to remain unaffected. While enjoying its convenience, you need to be aware of the risks it poses, and know how to deal with them. Prevention is more effective in security issues than fixes. After all, a stitch in time saves nine.

4. What is the original function of AirTag?

A. To track one 's 1ocation secretly.

B. To help find one's easily lost items.

C. To 1ocate one's phone accurately.

D. To ensure the safety of one's phone.

5. Why did the author scan stories about AirTag?

A. Her ex-husband tracked her via AirTag.

B. Many people suffered from security problem.

C. AirTag was a newly released electronic device.

D. She intended to know about its great convenience.

6. What is advised to do when you are followed by an unwanted AirTag?

B. Make it unable to work.

C. Pay no attention to it.

D. Contact its original owner.

7. What are the last two paragraphs mainly about?

B. People should use technology in a proper way.

C. People should handle potential digital risks actively.

D. People should bear the responsibility to fix the bugs bravely.

C

Why do we choose to help one another? There are many reasons. You may be a selfless person or lending a hand may be a cultural expectation.

Now, researchers are raising the possibility that good sleep may be a wonderful ingredient that promotes the alacrity to offer help between human beings. Indeed the better sleep you have, the more willing you will be to lend a hand. And a surprising new set of research studies have found that sleep loss may affect our generosity at different levels.

Researchers at University of California, Berkley, led three small studies to explore generosity. In one study, they exposed a group of healthy adults to a night of 8 hours of sleep and a night with no sleep. Researchers scanned the participants' brains after each night. After a sleepless night, areas of the brain involved in empathy and helping behavior were less active. In fact, when the study participants were sleepless at night, 78% of them demonstrated a reduction in the desire to help others.

ln the next study, researchers tracked 136 people through online questionnaires and sleep diaries for a few days. They wanted to see if nightly variations in sleep affected their desire to help others. They found that, when sleep quality worsened from one night to the next, there was a major decrease in ""helping choices" and vice versa.

The third study looked at how sleep loss affected generosity on a larger scale. The researchers analyzed data from over 3 million charitable donations made in the U.S.. They focused on donations during the transition to Daylight Saving Time(DST) in spring each year. During the spring time change, we lose an hour of sleep.

Interestingly, researchers found a 10% drop in donations in regions that change their clocks. This drop wasn't seen in regions that didn't observe the time change. It showed that insufficient sleep triggered by the time change impacted donation behavior.

All these results suggest that insufficient sleep makes us less compassionate and helpful. Throughout the world, more than half of adults don't get enough sleep during the workweek, but we should all start valuing adequate sleep rather than treating it like something optional or unproductive. If so, it will enable us to be more helpful and to be the best versions of ourselves.

8. What's the writing purpose of the first paragraph?

A. To start a heated discussion.

B. To introduce the topic of the text.

C. To present a social phenomenon.

D. To show the author's conclusion.

9. What does the underlined word "alacrity" mean in the second paragraph?

A. Understanding.

B. Ability.

C. Awareness.

D. Eagerness.

10. What can we infer from the three studies?

A. People observing DST are likely to donate less.

B. People change their clocks to have more empathy.

C. Sleep quality determines the desire to give a hand.

D. Sleep loss can severely affect helping behavior.

11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A. Sleep Triggers Behavior

B. Adequate S1eep: A Healthy Person

C. Sleep Influences Generosity

D. Sound Sleep: A Productive Person

D

Alarming levels of dangerous chemicals known as Perfluorinated Alkylated Substances (PFAS) were discovered in food packaging at a number of well-known fast-food restaurants and grocery store chains, a new report found. The report comes more than two years into the Covid-19 pandemic， when the public has relied heavily on takeout and grocery deliveries.

Often called "forever chemicals" because they do not break down in the environment, PFAS are used in food packaging to prevent grease(油脂) and water from soaking through food wrappers and cups. PFAS can also be found in the ink used to print logos and instructions on food containers.

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention calls exposure to PFAS a "public health concern", citing that the human-made chemicals can harm the immune system and reduce a person 's resistance to infectious diseases.

Regulatory limits for how much PFAS food packaging should contain can vary greatly. For instance, a new law in California set the limit at less than 100 ppm. "Compared to America, Denmark sets a much lower regulatory limit of 20 ppm with great success," said Xenia Trier, an expert at the European Environment Agency. "It does work to set limits and enforce them. PFAS do migrate from the paper into the food. Even though it was not 100%we still saw considerable transmission. In general，transmission from packaging to food is increased as the temperature of the food rises. It is the same with the time spent in wrapping materials." Trier told NBS, one of the major American mass-media companies.

In response to the issue，Whole Foods became the first grocery chain to publicly commit to remove PFAS from takeout containers and bakery paper. Many other companies followed suit. Experts say people who want to avoid PFAS in their takeout and food delivery packaging should favor companies that have promised to remove the chemicals. “As soon as you receive your takeout, you'd better take food out of the container immediately, and never reheat food in its original container. Instead, remove your food and heat it in ceramic(陶瓷的) or glass containers." Trier said.

12. What can we learn about PFAS in food packaging?

A. They have been used for two years.

B. They do little harm to consumers' health.

C. They are used to break down the chemicals.

D. They can make wrappers resistant to grease and water.

13. What is Xenia Trier's attitude to setting a lower limit of PFAS?

A. Favorable.

B. Neutra1l.

C. Ambiguous.

D. Opposed.

14. What does the underlined word "it" refer to in paragraph 4?

A. Considerable migration of grease and water.

B. PFAS transmission from packaging to food.

C. Wrapper exposure to high food temperature.

D. Regulatory limits concerning food packaging.

15. What is the main idea of the text?

A. Food packaging contains dangerous chemicals.

B. Consumers are recommended to have PFAS—free products.

C. PFAS found in food packaging has become a great concern.

D. The government has taken measures to reduce PFAS exposure.

You don't need to be an astronomer with a giant telescope to enjoy a simple but spellbinding activity: stargazing. 16_____ It's so interesting to discover what's going on. With a bit of practice, and know-how from books and websites, stargazers can spot particular stars and also groups of stars.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段.使之构成一篇完整的短文。

My best friend Carla Hernandez called me on Thursday afternoon. "Daniel, meet me in the park near the playground in five minutes. I have a great ideal" This worried me because Carla 's great ideas almost always meant big trouble for me!

I dashed outside and jogged to the park. When I saw Carla, my heart sank because her large dog Perro was with her. I liked everything about Carla except Perro. I had never had a pet in my house, and I felt uncomfortable and nervous around animals. But I was embarrassed to say I was afraid of Carla's dog.

Upon my arrival, Carla smiled in a joyful voice." Isn't this the perfect location for a pet show?" I was surprised at her words. Carla explained to me that all the kids in the neighborhood could show off their pets' talents and demonstrated the things they did well. Besides, there were plenty of comfortable benches for our parents and friends to sit on as audience. Carla added that I could be the announcer since I didn't have a pet for the show. What she said directly affected my mood because crowds always made me nervous and unsure. Looking into her eyes, I apologized, "I'm sorry, but that's impossible! Besides, I don't like animals, remember?"

“That's nonsense," said Carla. "There's nothing to be concerned about because you'll be great! "Just at that time, Perro leaped up, slobbered all over me, and almost knocked me down. "Yuck. Down, Perro! Stay!" I shouted. Perro sat as still as a statue." Wow, you're good at that," Carla raised her voice excitedly. "Now let's get started because we have a lot to do.”

With her encouragement, I decided to have a try. After going back home, I couldn't wait to practice announcing each pet's act. By Saturday morning I had practiced hundreds of times. However, my stomach was doing flip flops by the time the audience arrived at the park. The size of the crowd made me feel even more anxious.

注意:

1.续写词数应为150左右;

2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。

Paragraph 1:

When the show began, I took a deep breath and announced the first pet.

Paragraph 2:

Then it was Carla and Perro's turn.

Dear Jason,

Thrilled to learn that a group hiking trip is scheduled by our school, I am writing to invite you, a nature lover, to join us.

One Possible Version: (182words)

When the show began, l took a deep breath and announced the first pet. It was a beautiful parrot named Butter, who was carpeted with green and golden features with a red tail. Butter immediately became the focus of the audience. Following her owner's instructions，Butter parroted "Good morning" in a rough voice and interacted with the audience in a funny way, soon winning thunderous applause. Everything went smoothly, and everybody present was immersed in the talent show. l was beginning to feel calmer on the stage and came to believe that being an announcer wasn't so bad.

Then it was Carla and Perro's turn. "Sit, Perro,” Carla demanded，but Perro wasn't so interested, leaving Carla at her wits' end. Suddenly, Perro leaped at me at a high speed. My heart was pounding wildly, yet I knew I had to do something. "Stop!” At my voice, Perro slowed down his pace, looking at me with his tail wagging. I instantly decided that I could direct Perro right here. Under my instructions，Perro walked with his two legs in perfect circles，even dancing to music. Looking at the cheering crowds, I heaved a sigh of relief, "Carla's great ideas are not always big trouble.”
