Taking a regular afternoon nap(小睡)may be linked to better mental functions(心理机能)in old people, a study has found. Researchers have found sleeping in the afternoon has something to do with better verbal fluency and memory in the ageing Chinese population.
The study, published in online journal General Psychiatry, examined the sleep patterns of 2, 214 healthy people aged 60 and over in several large cities in China, including Beijing and Shanghai. Of those who took part in the study, 1, 534 took a regular afternoon nap of between five minutes and two hours, while 680 did not.
Participants(参与者)in the study were asked how often they napped during the week, with answers ranging from once a week to every day. The average length of nighttime sleep was around 6.5 hours in both groups, though no information was taken on the specific duration or timing of the naps taken.
All participants took part in a dementia(痴呆)screening test to check their mental functions across a number of areas. The researchers found important differences in verbal fluency and memory, with scores higher among the napping group.
“In addition to reducing sleepiness, mid-day naps offer a lot of benefits such as strengthening memory, preparation for following learning, and emotional stability, but these effects were not observed in all cases,” the researchers concluded.
However, the researchers did point out the research could not conclude whether after-noon naps put off the dementia of older people, or whether they might be a symptom of dementia. The researchers plan to continue their research to understand the details of these connections, and hope to publish more work in this field in the future.
28. According to the text, afternoon naps can help old people ______.
A. live a rich life B. keep their promises
C. treat others with kindness D. remember things better
29. How did the researchers carry out the study
A. By watching the old people's regular afternoon naps.
B. By showing many. facts about old people's dementia.
C. By comparing the participants' mental functions.
D. By asking the participants to take many physical examinations.
30. What can we know from the last paragraph
A. Afternoon naps can put dementia off. B. The participants will write more works.
C. The author of the text wants to make the study. D. There will be a further study on afternoon naps.
31. What does the text mainly talk about
A. The harm of old people's dementia. B. The advantages of afternoon naps for the old.
C. The connection between living longer and dementia.
D. The way to develop the habit of taking afternoon naps.

Some people have come up with a creative solution with monster-inspired(以怪物为灵感的)art works to deal with the flood of cicada(蝉)shells that have cropped up across the country.
The species, Brood X, have come to states across the eastern and southern U. S. A lot of cicadas deposited their shells in states including Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Virginia.
Normally, people have no choice but to deal with the shells wherever they go. However, a recently rediscovered art piece from 2018 has encouraged others to copy it.
Alex from Michigan created a big monster-inspired art work out of dozens or even hundreds of cicada shells. The monster took inspiration from old Japanese monster movies and shows, like. Godzilla, Ultraman or Super Sentai—the show that Power Rangers is based on.
The interesting art work led to similar works from other artists. Albert, a student of University of Maryland, created a copy of a monster in Xenomorph. He said, “We are taking action! Getting ready for the coming risk of cicada shells with some art inspiration from Alex's creations and other cicada shell artists will be there.”
The art is so unbelievable that FOX ran a fact-check on the art. The result is “yes”. People are harvesting hundreds of cicada shells to make monster-inspired art works.
Some curious people, such as Alice and Mary, are learning to make a cicada statue(雕像)of the monster Baltan in Ultraman step by step. Some people have taken a normal approach and simply create art inspired by cicadas. In New Jersey, people create life-size painted cicadas on sidewalks.
32. Why did the American people make monster-inspired art works
A. To solve the problem caused by cicada shells. B. To create a kind of interesting art work.
C. To help cicadas go to the whole country. D. To copy the movies and shows of monster.
33. Which can replace the underlined word “deposited” in paragraph 2
A. Found. B. Left. C. Destroyed D. Changed.
34. What's Albert's attitude to the art form
A. Unfriendly. B. Uncertain. C. Curious. D. Positive.
35. What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph
A. Many cicadas are leaving the cities of America.
B. It's difficult for people to make the statue of Baltan.
C. The solution has become popular among many American people.
D. American people are competing with each other in art works.

Writing a school paper may not be that easy for every student, especially to those who struggle with organizing their thoughts on paper. Follow some of these simple yet tried and tested ways on how to properly write a school paper.
36 Not every high school teacher follows the same rules and standards of writing as each will most likely have his own set of directions. Do not hesitate to ask your teacher for any matter that needs to be explained 37
Do not limit yourself to boring and unoriginal topics for a school paper. Teachers will usually give out just one topic for a school paper. This topic will usually cover large areas of interests. Students will be given a chance to be critical and creative at the same time. Make sure that you take adyantage of this by thinking about a really unique topic. 38 If you have trouble thinking of what to write, then by all means brainstorm with your classmates.
39 Once you are sure what to write about, start checking materials that can be included in your school paper. If you have to, then collect relevant resources. Just do not forget to take note of all of your resources as these will be your proof(证据)if your teacher requires it later.
Always start by writing a clear outline(提纲). An outline would be your best bet in making your school paper as organized as possible. 40
A. Follow the latest edition of the writing.
B. Have a full introduction for your paper.
C. Research your choice of the topic completely.
D. You can do this either during class or in the office.
E. Make sure that you have understood all of the teacher's directions.
F. You'd better make one before jumping into the careful writing process.
