B Laura Sides was a psychology major at the University of Nottingham in 2004. She first noticed signs of her dads developing dementia(痴

19、呆) when she moved to Nottingham. She said, “Dad was a doctor, so he knew exactly what was happening to him, but people try to hide it when they are ill. Then, I came home for my 21st birthday and arranged to meet him, but he never showed up as hed forgotten. Thats when I knew something serious was h

20、appening.” So, aged 21, she decided to leave university and look after him herself. She lived close by, popping in every day to make sure he was eating, and that the house was tidy, before heading off to her work. Besides challenging moments, there were times when looking after her dad was a pure jo

21、y. “Wed wake up, Id ask what he wanted to do that day, and however ridiculous the adventure, off wed go.” Sadly, in 2009, 5 years later, Laura lost her father. Before he died, Laura went to a hospital appointment with him, where doctors mentioned that his form of Alzheimers was genetic meaning there

22、 was a fifty-fifty chance that she had inherited it. For several years Laura agonised over whether to be tested, finally finding out in August 2017 that she has the APP gene, meaning that, like him, she will develop the condition within a decade. At first, she struggled, feeling as if she lacked pur

23、pose. Then, during a sleepless night in the summer of 2018, she decided at around 2 a.m. to enter the 2019 London Marathon sponsored by the charities Alzheimers Society and Alzheimers Research U.K. She hoped to start the conversation around earlyonset Alzheimers and to encourage people to talk about

24、 it more openly. “I remember when Dad was ill, people wouldnt know how to react and it all felt very hidden away, but I want to be honest and open.” She added, “The more information we can get, the less of a taboo(忌讳) this will feel.

ACaring and positive. BCareful and honest. CPatient and cautious. DDevoted and modest. C Digital groundi

28、ng is when parents or caregivers limit or completely take away access to technology from children. According to a study conducted by Pew Research，65of parents have digitally grounded their teen by taking away their teens cellphone or internet access as punishment. Because children are so connected w

29、ith their technologies, digital grounding may seem like a logical step for parents. Take away a childs most cherished item and they will quickly learn from their behavior. But the idea of digital grounding isnt as clear-cut as that. Instead, it may be a lose-lose situation for parents and kids, alik

30、e. For most parents, the goal of grounding isnt to make their children unhappy or sad. It is to teach a lesson in the hope that they wont engage in whatever behavior got them in trouble in the first place. Unfortunately, though, digital grounding is often just punishment, not discipline. If a child

31、stays out past curfew(约定的最晚回家时间), a punishment would be hitting or yelling at them. Discipline would be not letting them go out the next weekend because they failed to follow rules. Weve all been thereweve caught our child doing something wrong and in the heat of the moment laid out a strict punishm

32、ent. We may have been feeling hot-headed, embarrassed, or upset. Often, though, these punishments dont align(结盟) with the bad behavior. While digital grounding may solve the problem temporarily, it wont provide children with the guidance they need to act appropriately in the future. Instead of groun

33、ding, show your child what they did wrong and give them the chance to act differently. This way, they will learn from their mistakes in a practical manner and figure out ways to be safe and smart with technology. Theres no denying it：technology is here for the long-haul. This is why some parenting e

34、xperts dont recommend digitally grounding your children. It doesnt focus on the end goal of safe behavior. They recommend teaching them good habits as soon as possible, rather than taking away their technology. By digitally grounding them, you are putting a bandage over the wound, rather than treati

35、ng it. Now, when we say that digital grounding is a lose-lose situation, were not saying that disciplining your children in general is a lose-lose situation. Discipline is a great way to teach children lessons, when used appropriately. 28. Which of the following is a form of discipline? A. Hitting o

36、r yelling at children. B. Laying out a strict punishment in the heat of the moment. C. Taking away access to cellphones from children completely. D. Forbidding kids to go out the next weekend if they stay out past curfew. 29. What does the author think of digital grounding? A. It benefits children g

37、reatly. B. It is no better than disciplining. C. Parents can use it to correct kidsbehavior. D. Neither parents nor children gain benefits from it. 30. What does the author suggest parents do instead of grounding? A. Give kids more free time. B. Act appropriately in public. C. Help kids form good ha

38、bits. D. Put a bandage over the wound. 31. Whats the purpose of the text? A. To inform us of ways of punishing kids. B. To explain what digital grounding means. C. To show how to parent children in digital times. D. To prove digital grounding is not a good parenting way. D Since English biologist Ch

39、arles Darwin published On the Origin of Species in 1859, scientists have vastly improved their knowledge of natural history. However, a lot of information is still of the speculation, and scientists can still only make educated guesses at certain things. One subject that they guess about is why some

40、 400 million years ago, animals in the sea developed limbs (肢) that allowed them to move onto and live on land. The 7th week Think and your mind will stay fresh. Recently, an idea that occurred to the US paleontologist (古生物学家) Alfred Romer a century ago became a hot topic once again. Homer thought t

41、hat tidal (潮汐的) pools might have led to fish gaining limbs. Sea animals would have been forced into these pools by strong tides. Then, they would have been made either to adapt to their new environment close to land or die. The fittest among them grew to accomplish the transition (过渡) from sea to la

42、nd. Romer called these earliest four-footed animals “tetrapods”. Science has always thought that this was a credible theory, but only recently has there been strong enough evidence to support it. Hannah Byrne is an oceanographer (海洋学家) at Uppsala University in Sweden. She announced at the 2018 Ocean

43、 Sciences Meeting in Oregon, US, that by using computer software, her team had managed to link Homers theory to places where fossil deposits (沉积物) of the earliest tetrapods were found. According to the magazine Science, in 2014, Steven Balbus, a scientist at the University of Oxford in the UK, calcu

44、lated that 400 million years ago, when the move from land to sea was achieved, tides were stronger than they are today. This is because the planet was 10 percent closer to the moon than it is now. The creatures stranded in the pools would have been under the pressure of “survival of the fittest”, ex

45、plained Mattias Green, an ocean scientist at the UKs University of Bangor. As he told Science, “After a few days in these pools, you become food or you run out of food. the fish that had large limbs had an advantage because they could flip (翻转) themselves back in the water.” As is often the case, ho

46、wever, there are others who find the theory less convincing. Cambridge Universitys paleontologist Jennifer Clark, speaking to Nature magazine, seemed unconvinced. “Its only one of many ideas for the origin of land-based tetrapods, any or all of which may have been a part of the answer,” she said. 32

47、. Who first proposed the theory that fish might have gained limbs because of tidal pools? A. Alfred Romer. B. Charles Darwin. C. Hannah Byrne. D. Steven Balbus. 33. Why were tides stronger 400 million years ago than they are today according to Steven Balbus? A. There were larger oceans. B. Earth was

48、 closer to the moon. C. The moon gave off more energy. D. Earth was under greater pressure. 34. The underlined word “stranded” in Paragraph 8 probably means “_”. A. found B. settled C. abandoned D. trapped 35. What is the focus of the article? A. The arguments over a scientific theory. B. The proposal of a new scientific theory. C. Some new evidence to support a previous theory. D. A new discovery that questions a previous theory. 第二节第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为 多余选项。多余选项。 Food feeds the soul.
