88-year-old Elsie Eiler is a one-of-a-kind figure in the country as the sole resident of Monowi, America's tiniest town.
Monowi was once a booming railroad town in the 1930s. It once had around 120 residents and a lively business community. However, as urbanization and technological developments attracted people away from labor-intensive farming and toward new opportunities i n larger cities, Monowi began to shrink.
In 2004, Elsie faced a profound loss when her beloved husband passed away, leaving her as the last remaining resident of Monowi. Despite the loneliness, Elsie made a decision to remain in the town she called home. But don't mistake her loneliness for boredom or idleness. This strong-willed woman keeps herself remarkably busy. Elsie takes on multiple roles within the town, serving as the hotel owner, mayor, treasurer, clerk, secretary, and librarian. However, she ensures to take a well-deserved rest day on Mondays.

She single-handedly completes the necessary paperwork to maintain Monowi's corporation and has even elected herself as the mayor. Collecting $500 in. taxes annually, Elsie ensures the town's three lampposts are well-lit and its water supply is running smoothly.
Asked about the possibility of leaving, Elsie dismisses the idea outright. She states, "I'm happy here. I want to be here, or I wouldn't stay here." Elsie Eiler's devotion to preserving Monowi's identity and keeping its spirit alive makes her a true miracle.

The social media platform Instagram once made headlines for limiting likes in an effort to reduce the comparisons and hurt feelings resulting from attaching popularity to sharing content. A small step in the right direction, says Jacqueline Sperling, a psychologist who works with youths that experience anxiety disorders.
Social media has a reinforcing nature. The platforms are designed to be addictive and are related to anxiety, depression, and even physical illnesses. But what makes users come back for more even when it can literally make them feel sick
"The unknown outcome and the possibility of a desired outcome can keep users engaged with the sites," Sperling says. "When the outcome is unpredictable, the behavior is more likely to repeat." To boost self-esteem and feel a sense of belonging in their social circles, people post content with the hope of receiving positive feedback. FOMO—fear of missing out—also plays a role. Teenagers hope to keep track of friends' activities. Missing experiences can create anxiety and depression.
The earlier teens start using social media, the greater impact they have on mental health. This is especially true for females. While teen males tend to express aggression physically, females do so by excluding others and sharing hurtful comments. Social media increases the opportunity for such harmful interactions.
In addition, social media puts a lens filter (滤镜) on appearances and reality. When there's a filter applied to the digital world, it can be hard for teens to tell what's real and what isn't, which comes at a tough time for them physically and emotionally.
We can benefit from social platforms to some extent, as they allow people to stay in touch with family and friends around the world. Still, the platforms have opened a "Pandora's box" as they continue to evolve more quickly than we can research their impact.
In addition to limiting likes, Sperling suggests social platforms consider decreasing mass sharing. Regardless of how likely social media giants, are to change their ways, though, individuals can take control of their own behavior.
8. Why does Instagram limit likes
A. To share more contents. B. To increase its popularity.
C. To ensure teens' well-being. D. To reduce teens' online time.
9. What does "Pandora's box" in Paragraph 6 imply
A. Social media can be double-edged.
B. People benefit from social platforms.
C. People get boxes of gifts from social platforms.
D. Social media opens a door for people to. see the world.
10. Which of the following does Sperling agree with
A. Its lens. help teens to tell the real world.
B. Its unpredictable outcome attracts frequent visits.
C. It is helpful to teens with anxiety and depression.
D. It has a greater impact on female teens than male, teens.
11. What will the author most probably talk about next
A. Advice on users' controlling mass sharing.
B. Reasons for teens' posting addictions.
C. Negative effects of harmful interactions.
D. Ways of social media giants management.
D
Blue-light-blocking glasses are supposed to reduce the effects of short-wavelength light from our smartphones, computer screens and LED lights: namely, eye strain (疲劳) leading to poor sleep and possibly cataracts and macular degeneration (白内障和黄斑变性). They can range from under $15 all the way up to several hundred dollars. But do they really work
Dr. Elizabeth. Esparaz, an ophthalmologist and lifestyle medicine specialist based in Cleveland, Ohio, says the science that manufacturers share to promote these glasses can be confusing. For starters, blue light isn't just about tech devices, and it's not always bad. "The sun gives off a much higher intensity of blue light than, human-made devices, of course, and it's actually beneficial," says Dr. Esparaz. It helps our mood, alertness and sleep-wake cycle.
However, blue light at night is not a good thing: It suppresses the release of melatonin (褪黑激素). "Melatonin helps regulate our circadian rhythms and makes, us sleepy," says Dr. Esparaz.
So, in theory, blue-light-blocking glasses should help people who watch movies in bed or read from a. table at night to avoid sleeplessness. Indeed, a 2021 review from the University of Oklahoma that looked at 24 previous studies found people affected by sleep disorders, jet lag and shift work fell asleep faster after using these glasses.
As for eye strains, an Australian study of 120 people in 2021 showed that those wearing the glasses did not experience less eye strain than those using clear glasses. And a 2018 review study, also by Australian researchers, concluded. that. there was insufficient evidence. to show that they prevent macular degeneration.
"These glasses aren't going to be harmful," says Dr. Esparaz, so people who find them effective should keep using them. But, she adds, a lack of standardization in the industry means there's no way to know if one pair is better than another.
You can always activate the blue-light-blocking function on your devices and limit screen 18time before bed. To help reduce eye strain, Dr. Esparaz suggests taking breaks and using eye drops.
12. What does the underlined word "suppress" mean in paragraph 3
A. Press. B. Prevent. C. Stimulate. D. Increase.
13. Who will benefit from the glasses according to the studies
A. People under great pressure.
B. People experiencing eye strain.
C. People with macular degeneration.
D. People suffering from sleep disorders.
14. What do we know about the glasses from the last two paragraphs
A. They are useful to some people.
B. They each have the same quality.
C. They can help reduce eye strain.
D. They can activate the blue-light function.
15. What s Dr. Esparza's attitude to blue-light-blocking glasses
A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Opposed. D. Doubtful.
二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)
Some parents manage to guide their kids through homework moments with ease. (16) However, the large majority of us are trying to avoid our own breakdowns in the face of our children's homework.
While blaming your children for not having started their homework earlier may be your natural instinct (本能), it will only make them shut down or yell at you. Children who feel terrible about procrastinating (拖延) are more likely to have anxiety and negative feelings that will only fuel their continued procrastination. So take a deep breath to calm down. (17)
There are all kinds of reasons kids avoid doing their homework. Maybe they're concerned about what a teacher will think. (18) Maybe they're distracted by something that happened in school that day.
Once you figure out what's driving your children's procrastination, you can strategize with them. Start by removing temptation when possible. (19) And emphasize that short-term pleasure equals long-term pain. Then remind them that the immediate. instinct to procrastinate and play video games will make life miserable later.
(20) If kids don't understand why they're doing the work, they're more likely to be frustrated. For example, your child might ask, "Why. do I need to know algebra I'll never use it when I'm older." You can tell the truth: "You probably won't need to know about variables in everyday life, but learning algebra will give you a framework for understanding how to break down and solve complex tasks."
So when your kids are overwhelmed, help them figure out why, and then model strategies that foster independence, confidence, and well-being.
A. Easier said than done.
B. Others choose to hire tutors.
C. Working independently is key to avoiding it.
D. Finally, explain the importance of the assignment.
E. All possible barriers to success should be removed.
F. Or they are worried their work won't measure up to a friend's.
G. And try to figure out how to help them manage the tasks at hand.
16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G

In a coastal village named Seaford, lived a courageous young woman named Amelia. Amelia was known throughout Seaford for her adventurous nature. From the moment she could walk, she would eagerly run towards the crashing waves, feeling the sand between her toes and the cool spray of the ocean mist on her face. She was a woman with a strong will and possessed a heart full of kindness. Amelia's love for the ocean was intense, and she spent most of her days exploring the beautiful beaches and sparkling waters that surrounded her house.
One sunny morning, while Amelia was walking along the shore, she noticed a group of restless seagulls abnormally circling above the crashing waves. Their unusual calls echoed (回) through the air. Concerned for their well-being, she followed their flight pattern, her instincts guiding her toward danger.
As she approached a towering cliff, Amelia gasped in horror. On a narrow ledge (岩架), high above the violent waves, was a young dolphin trapped in a thick fishing net. Its shiny body shone under the golden rays of the sun, but its freedom was cruelly limited by the trap. With each struggle, the net tightened around its delicate body, leaving painful marks on its skin. Its tail flapped helplessly, each movement a request for help, while its desperate cries for assistance echoed through the air.
A sense of urgency filled her, pushing her forward with determination and resolve. Realizing that time was tight, Amelia knew she had to act instantly to free this innocent creature from its difficult position before it submitted to exhaustion or the force of the tides.
注意:

Without hesitation, Amelia rushed back to the village.
