Humans were designed to stand upright(直立). And yet in this modern world, too many of us spend our days with our heads lowered for a simple reason: we're staring at the tiny screen of a smart phone.
People spend an average of 2 to 4 hours each day with their neck bent while shooting off emails or texts. That's 700 to 1,400 hours a year. The success of social media has led to a rapid development of bad smart phone posture.
The average adult head weighs 10 to 12 pounds when it's in the upright position. However, because of the gravity, bending your head at a mere 15 degree puts 27 pounds of pressure on your spine(脊椎);a 30 degree neck bend could equal(等于) 40 pounds of pressure; a 45 degree bend adds the force of 49 pounds, according to the research from Dr. Kenneth Hansraj from New York. These stresses may lead to many problems.
It's no secret that correct posture is better for your back. According to the researchers, good posture is described as ears aligned(成一条直线) with the shoulders. In proper alignment, spinal stress disappeared. It is the best position for the spine. Standing tall doesn't just make you look better; it improves your health, too. Other studies have found good posture has even been connected to ways of behaving. People who have poorer posture often have poorer physical and emotional health.
The researchers describe bad posture(姿势)as “the head in a forward position and the shoulders dropping forward in a rounded position”. Bad posture has been connected to many medical problems, including headaches and other problems, depression and heart disease. This is why Hansraj said it's important to be mindful of your smart phone posture. While it is nearly impossible to avoid the technologies that cause these problems, people should make an effort to look at their phones with a correct posture.
4. Through the underlined sentence in paragraph 2, the author wants to show that _______.
A .the social media have its bad side
B .the social media have made a great success
C .people have to use social media unavoidably
D .more and more people are using smart phones
5. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us
A .It's healthy to bend your back regularly.
B .Your back is getting exercise as you bend it.
C .The average weight of an ad ult head always changes.
D .The more you bend your neck, the heavier the head becomes.
6. What is the correct posture
A. Bend your head within 15 degrees.
B. Raise and lower your head in turn.
C. Drop your head forward in a rounded position.
D. Keep the positions of the neck and shoulders in a line.
7. It can be learnt a correct posture can _______.
A. cure many diseases B. make one behave differently
C. cause no stress to the spine D. prevent one from gaining weight

Yoga is an ancient physical and spiritual practice originating in India. The word “yoga” comes from Sanskrit (梵文)and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and mind. Today it is practiced in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. Recognizing its universal appeal, the United Nations declared 21 June as the International Day of Yoga in 2014 to raise awareness worldwide of the many benefits of practicing yoga.
Yoga is an invaluable gift from an ancient tradition. It’s not just about exercise but a way to discover the sense of oneness with yourself nature and the world. There is no written record of who invented yoga. Yoga practitioners (从业者)passed down the principles to their students. The earliest written record of yoga is generally believed to have been written by Patanjali, an Indian master who lived somewhere between 2,000 and 2,500 years ago.
Various yoga types give you multiple choices. Hatha yoga is the most widely practiced type and is excellent for beginners. It is gentle with slow and smooth movements. Kundalini yoga combines a singing session besides body and mental control. Bikram yoga is practiced in a heated room. It is to loosen muscles and to sweat to clean the body and remove symptoms of disease and pain. Ashtanga yoga is taught as a difficult workout where you move quickly from one gesture to another to build strength and patience.
In recent years, the World Health Organization has urged countries to help their citizens reduce physical inactivity, which is among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide, and a key risk factor for non-communicable diseases, such as cancer and diabetes. Yoga is a proper exercise. It is known for its ability to ease stress and anxiety. It may also help reduce several risk factors for heart diseases and promote a better sleep.

C. To popularize Yoga practice worldwide. D. To give a declaration on cultural diversity.
9. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The principles of yoga. B. The history of yoga.
C. The benefits of yoga. D. An Indian yoga master.
10. What will you choose if you’re looking for a challenging exercise

A. Physical inactivity causes deadly diseases
B. Yoga can help prevent communicable diseases.
C. Little or no exercise puts people’s health at risk.
D. Yoga can be a cure for many kinds of diseases.

Easy to make and cheap to buy, instant noodles have long been China's ultimate convenience food.
Since it was a snack for students, a meal on the train, or just the go-to choice for hungry workers, more than 46.2 billion packets were sold in China in 2013. But it seems this industry has gone off the boil. By 2016 those sales had declined to 38.5 billion, according to the World Instant Noodle Association, a drop of almost 17%.
“This phenomenon shows an unnoticeable while continuous change in China's consumption(消费) patterns,” said Zhao Ping of the Academy of China Council for the Promotion of International Trade. He told the China Daily, “Consumers are more interested in life quality than just filing their bellies these days.”
About 730 million people in China now have access to the Internet according to government figures. And about 95% of those are using smart phones to connect. And apps that offer food delivery to your home, office or wherever you happen to be are a real fast developing industry.
Their menus are undoubtedly more expensive than a pot of instant noodles. But these meals can still be inexpensive, and arguably more tasty, depending on your favour.
But put in the global background, China is still easily the biggest market for instant noodles. In fact, China's consumption was roughly equal to Indonesia, Japan, Vietnam, India, the US, South Korea and the Philippines combined.
And that means global noodle manufacturers are unlikely to turn away from the Chinese market. Japan's instant noodle business Nissin Foods, for example, is planning to land on the stock market, in Hong Kong, by which operation it hopes to raise about 145 million dollars. It is rare for a Japanese firm to list in Hong Kong, but Nissin is talking up its prospects in China, where it is already the fifth biggest brand.
“Some consumers stopped consuming instant noodles, but most consumers want to increase the quality (of food they consume),” chief executive Kiyotaka Ando told CNBC last week,
“We can supply high-quality products so we have more possibility to develop our business.
12. The phrase “go off the boil" in Paragraph 2 is close in meaning to _______.
A. stop boiling B. turn down C. develop rapidly D. get out of control
13. According to the text, it is because of _______ that people have more food choices.
A. the development of food manufacturing industry
B. the fall of price in foods beyond instant noodles
C. the technological development on communication
D. the people's doubt on instant noodles' food safety
14. Which of the following descriptions is TRUE according to the text
A. China consumes more instant noodle than any other country does.
B. China is beginning to lose its first place in instant noodle business.
C. Nissin is the fifth biggest brand of Japan's instant noodle business.
D. Nissin is planning to build an instant noodle factory in Hong Kong.
15. We can infer from the text that
A. China's instant noodle consumption will continue to drop
B. Chinese people will favour cheaper instant noodles to save money
C. instant noodles will have a pessimistic prospect in the future
D. instant noodle manufacturers will focus more on its food quality
