Recycling Electronic Waste
When Alex Lin was 11 years old, he read an alarming article in the newspaper which said that people were
burying old computers in backyards, throwing TVs into streams, and dumping (丢弃) cell phones in the garbage.
This was dangerous because e-waste contains harmful chemicals that can leak into the environment, getting into
crops, animals, water supplies—and people.
Alex was really worried and decided to make it next project for WIN—the Westerly Innovations Network. Alex
and six of his friends had formed this organization to help solve community problems two years before.
But what could they do about this project with e-waste The team spent several weeks gathering information
about the harmful chemicals in e-waste and their effects on humans. They learned how to dispose (处置) of e-waste
properly and how it could be recycled. Then, they sent out a survey and found only one in eight knew what e-waste
was, let alone how to properly dispose of it.
Alex and his friends went into action. They advertised in the local newspaper and distributed notices to students,
asking residents to bring their unwanted electronics to the school parking lot. The drive lasted two days, and they
collected over 9, 500 kilograms of e-waste.
The next step was to set up a long-term e-waste drop-off center for the town. After some research, they’d learned
that reusing is the best way to deal with electronic devices and it is seven times more efficient than recycling. So,
they began learning to refurbish (翻新) computers themselves and distributed them to students who didn’t have their
own. In this way, they could help students in the area and protect the environment at the same time.
For a lasting solution to e-waste, the drop-off center wasn’t enough. Laws would have to be passed. In 2016,
WIN helped push for an e-waste bill in their town, which required companies that manufactured or sold electronics
to take back e-waste. The bill clearly forbids the dumping of e-waste.
Because of the work of WIN, more and more people, like Alex and his team, are getting the message about safe
disposal of e-waste. As Alex says, “Today’s technology should not become tomorrow’s harmful garbage.”
40．What was Alex’s worry after he read the article
A．The change of environment. B．The recycling of plastic.
C．The littering of e-waste. D．The overuse of old computers.
41．What did Alex do to start the project
A．Collect information. B．Set up WIN.
C．Ask friends for help. D．Carry out a survey.
42．Which can best describe the way Alex and his team did their work
A．Traditional. B．Competitive. C．Convenient. D．Scientific.
43．What message does the story convey
A．There is no end to perfection.
B．Young people can make a big difference.
C．Every positive attitude has a reward.
D．Success comes through failure.

It’s worth being aware that developmental changes could make children more sensitive to the negative side of
social media. During the teenage years, for example, the brain changes massively, and this can influence how young
people act and feel—including making them more sensitive to social relationships, and status.
“Being a teenager is a really a major time of development,” says Orben. “You’re much more impacted by your
peers, you’re much more interested in what other people think about you. And the design of social media might be
more stressful at certain times.”
As well as age, other factors could influence the impact of social media on children and teenagers—but
researchers are only just beginning to explore these individual differences. “There will be people who are more
negatively or positively impacted at different time points. That might be due to living different lives, going through
development at different points. They might be using social media differently.” says Orben.
For many parents, buying a child a phone is a practical decision. “In a lot of cases, parents are the ones that want
the younger children to have phones so that they can keep in touch throughout the day.” says Odgers.
It can also be seen as a milestone on the road to adulthood. “I think for children it gives them a sense of
independence and responsibility,” says Anja Stevie, researcher at the University of Vienna, Austria. “This is definitely
something that parents should consider: are their children at a stage where they are responsible enough to have their
own device ”
One factor parents shouldn’t overlook is how comfortable they feel with their child having a smart phone.
Besides, it’s worth remembering, though, that having a smart phone need not open the floodgates to every single app
or game available. “I’m increasingly hearing, when I interview children, that parents are giving them the phone but
introducing requirements to check and discuss which apps they get, and I think that is probably really wise,” says
Livingstone.
44．According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE
A．Parents feel comfortable when children have smart phones.
B．It is unacceptable for parents to check apps on children’s phones.
C．Age does not influence the impact of social media on children.
D．Many parents have a tendency to buy children smart phones.
45．What’s the writer’s attitude towards buying children smart phones
A．Puzzled. B．Concerned. C．Pessimistic. D．Subjective.
46．Which would be the best title for the passage
A．Negative Sides of Social Media B．Parents’ Practical Decision
C．An Introduction of Apps & Games D．When to Buy Children Smartphones
D
I have a friend who bird watches. She feels comfortable whenever she’s doing it. If you ask her why she likes
it, she will say things like “Well, birds are the world’s most magical creatures.” I have another friend who knits. She
likes it because it’s satisfying, and has an astonishingly impressive impact on people for whom being able to knit
gloves is out of reach.

As a term, “hobby” has always been of arguable meaning. Ask someone what they think a hobby is, and you’ll
get a dictionary definition that they will have just looked up on their phones and, then, a passionate speech on all of
the activities that can under no circumstances be put into groups as hobbies by their own highly unique and inflexible
standards. Being online is not a hobby, apparently, nor is listening to music.
Hardly anyone knows what a hobby is, and this is particularly the case now that so many of us are spending our
leisure time online arguing about these sorts of basic definitions with people, as the writer Max Read put it in an
essay, “to whom the world has been created again every morning, for whom every settled argument of modernity
must be rewritten, but this time with their engagement.”
Even taking these difficulties into account, however, it seems obvious that birdwatching and knitting are classic
hobbies. They are enjoyable, involve practice and reward effort, and they are given immediate access to a group with
the same interests. They are the sorts of hobbies advice columnists (专栏作家) have in mind when people write in
about their imbalanced lives. It’s interesting, then, that not one of my two clearly hobby-having friends would admit
to the practice.
They worried that their hobbies, which give them pleasure and keep them far from their computers, made them
seem like they had too much leisure time and too low inner resources that would enable them to naturally avoid
boredom. They are fully paid-up members of society, with busy lives, fulfilling interpersonal relationships and, again,
hobbies that make them happy. It’s just that hobbies have an undeservedly bad reputation, one made worse by the
Internet, like everything else.
The birdwatcher said the problem with having a hobby was that it made people seem like they were contributing
and learning nothing. The knitter said that she personally connected hobbies with having no friends and no idea of
what normal people do to have fun, Actually, they do not want to be seen as mad people who intentionally get away
from the correct course.
Well, I enjoy certain light operas. I play music for my own amusement. And yes, I am an ordinary student, and
that is not a sign of madness.
47．The author mentions two friends with different hobbies in Paragraph 1 mainly to .
A．compare two different types of hobbies
B．stress the importance of having a hobby
C．attract the readers’ attention to hobbies
D．explain the definition of “hobby”
48．What does the author mean by quoting Max Read in Paragraph 3
A．“Hobby” as a term can only be defined without the Internet.
B．It is hard for online people to reach an agreement on the definition of “hobby”.
C．People create a new world by expressing their ideas of hobbies online.
D．People online discuss the definition of “hobby” to change lives.
49．What can be inferred from the two friends’ concerns about their hobbies
第6页/共9页
A．They fear their hobbies are not impressive enough.
B．They are afraid of being seen as crazy people.
C．They find it necessary to share hobbies to balance their lives.
D．They refuse to share their feelings about their hobbies with mad people.
50．What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph
A．It is reasonable and normal for people to have hobbies.
B．Different people have their own standards of hobbies.
C．Hobbies are great for people’s mental health.
D．People who suffer from madness can also have hobbies.

Understanding The Metaverse（虚拟世界）
The metaverse is rapidly being described as the next frontier in the tech, business, and finance world. The idea
gained popularity in July 2021, after Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg renamed the company to Meta to reflect its
growing focus on the metaverse. Today, everyone, from major corporations like Microsoft and Disney to creative
startups, is struggling to enter the market that is predicted to reach over $780 billion by 2024. 51 How will it
affect the way we live and work
In simplest terms, the metaverse is a fully immersive (沉浸式) virtual world that is like our real life. 52
Instead, a functioning metaverse requires a combination of cutting-edge technologies like augmented reality (增强
现实), virtual reality, 3D avatars, and artificial intelligence. Zuckerberg may have drawn the world’s attention to the
metaverse, but the idea of a virtual world is not new. 53 For instance, Fortnite: Battle Royal, where 100 players
battle it out on a small island until only one survivor is left, is a typical example of a virtual universe.
54 They imagine using the virtual platform to attend meetings, conferences, concerts, and even tour the
world with friends.
However, experts believe the technologies need to improve greatly before that happens. The still heavy virtual
reality headsets often cause motion sickness and are not ready for long time use. The amount of computing power
required to house billions of people worldwide in a virtual universe also presents an issue.
The various Metaverse companies will also have different virtual worlds. They will have to standardize the
technology so users can move seamlessly (无缝) between them. 55
A. However, a metaverse is not a specific type of technology.
B. The development of the metaverse still has a long way to go.
C. But what exactly is the metaverse
D. Most importantly, the virtual experience has to be very attractive and affordable for consumers.
E. The metaverse industry will create jobs for hundreds and thousands of people.
F. The gaming industry has been building the fundamental elements of the metaverse for many years.
G. Fans believe that the metaverse will enable people to conduct their daily lives in an online world.

Dear Jim,
I’m sorry to learn that you have been obsessed with using your digital devices lately. It’s surely natural for you
to find the virtual world appealing. And don’t worry! I will fully support you in dealing with it.
First of all, start some other hobbies, such as reading, listening to music, or playing chess, etc., which will take
your mind off your digital devices. Secondly, make more friends. Friends will help you when you can’t resist the
temptation of your digital devices. Thirdly, do more sports. Sports can not only keep you healthy, but also enrich your
life and help you forget your digital devices.
I hope it will all work out. Cheer up! Let me know if I can help further.
Yours,
Li Hua
