三、阅读理解（分二节，共35分）
第一节，阅读选择（30分）
A
It was 8:30 in the morning. Lin Tao, a 14-year-old schoolboy, still didn’t show up at school. He was often late for school! The teacher called his father and got to know he played computer games late the night before and couldn’t get up that morning. In fact, he had played computer games since the age of 11. He almost dropped out of school last year.
Lin Tao is not alone. Information from China Internet Centre shows that the number of teenage Internet users in China had been about 170 million by the end of last year. Many of them, like Lin Tao, spend too much time playing computer games on the Internet.
To solve this problem, the Chinese government(政府) worked out a draft regulation(法规草案) in January. According to the regulation, players need to use their own ID cards to play games on the Internet. Game companies will control teenagers’ game time. They will not be able to play games on the Internet between 12:00 at night and 8:00 in the morning. If they are still playing during that time, the game companies will lock them out.
Many people think that the regulation can surely better protect Chinese young game players, but others don’t think it’s easy to stop them from playing games too much. More and more people come to know that playing games too much not only brings teenagers health and study problems, but also makes them depressed and tired. We need support from all the people to solve the problems.
26.Which of the following is true about Lin Tao
A. He had a fight with his father.
B. He dropped out of school.
C. He often arrived late for school.
D. He started playing games at 14.

A. 沮丧的 B. 愉快的 C. 激动的 D. 惭愧的
28.We can learn from the passage that_________ .
A. not many young people have the same problem as Lin Tao in China
B. everyone should play a part in controlling teenagers’ game time
C. the game companies will give teenagers prizes if they play well
D. it is impossible to control teenagers’ game time on the Internet
B
What would life be like if you give up using electronics(电子设备) like your cell phone and computer Will it become boring Twenty-eight eighth-graders at St. Matthew School in San Francisco will tell you it can still be rich and colourful.
These students took part in their schools “tech-free” challenge. They couldn’t use cell phones or computers for two weeks from Nov.11 to Nov.22.
The idea was to help students understand how technology(科技) has changed their lives, said Denise Uhl, principal of the school.
Uhl did a survey on technology using among the eighth-graders before thinking of the challenge. She found that 84 percent of the students said they didn’t like it “when everyone was on their electronics”, but they didn’t know what to do about it. The answer was actually easy — to stop using electronics.
To help students understand the point, Uhl created the activity. It was warmly welcomed among students.
“I wanted to sign up for the tech-free challenge because it was just really a good idea to do it,” eighth-grader Joe told local newspaper Catholic San Francisco. “I wanted to get closer to my family. And it really worked. I started to hang out with my family more. We watched more family movies and we played a lot of board games.”
The activity also helped students develop their interests.
During the two weeks, Lucas said he spent much more time outside, picking lemons in his garden. Maddie finished a painting and Cassie created a scarf on a loom(织布机).

Digital technology has made life easier for most people. With a smartphone, you can shop online, watch TV shows and catch a taxi. However, for many elderly people, such technology only makes their lives confusing(困惑的).
China has about 900 million Internet users. Among them, those aged 60 and above take up nearly 7 percent. That’s why elderly people are sometimes called “digital refugees (数字难民)”. For example, during COVID-19, people are often asked to show a green health code (健康码). “We have made a lifelong contribution to society, but now we feel abandoned by it,” a 75-year-old man told the Global Times.
For the elderly, they mainly learn digital technology from younger family members. However, not all of these younger people have the patience to teach the elderly. In addition, aging results in many physical problems. This makes it harder to use smartphones.
The government and some NGOs in China are trying to help. See Young, a Beijing-based NGO, aims to help China’s elderly people use mobile services. College student volunteers in the organization have been providing free computer and smartphone training for elderly people in over 200 communities across the country.
