Many Silicon Valley parents are becoming more concerned about preventing their children from using screens.Some parents think that even a little screen time can be extremely addictive,so it is better if their children avoid using or seeing these devices completely.However,it is difficult for working adults in the 21st century to give up using a phone at home.So,it’s simpler to employ someone to do this.
“Silicon Valley nanny(保姆)”,who takes children back to a time without screens every day is widely needed.From Cupertino to San Francisco,it’s widely agreed that screen time is harmful to youngsters.Therefore,parents are requesting nannies to keep phones,tablets and computers in a hidden place.Others even offer no-phone agreements.
Research shows that spending too much time on technology can harm young minds.For example,teenagers who use social media frequently are more likely to feel depressed and anxious.Insomnia(失眠) rates have also increased amongst this age group,and an increasing number of children display the signs that they can’t focus attention.These seemingly minor (轻微的) problems could become significant challenges for future generations.
“Many parents come back home and focus on their smartphones,ignoring whatever their children are trying to say,” said Shannon Zimmerman,who works as a nanny in San Jose for families that forbid screen time.“As a nanny,I also call on more parents to spend more time with their kids.”
1.Why are the Silicon Valley nannies greatly needed according to the text
A.To help parents and children balance work and life.
B.To teach children how to use technology responsibly.
C.To keep children away from screens.
D.To encourage children to exercise.
2.What is the result of spending too much time on screens for teenagers
A.Feeling confused.
B.Feeling anxious.
C.Feeling bored.
D.Feeling nervous.
3.What does Shannon suggest parents do
A.Encourage their children more.
B.Play games with their children.
C.Stop using smartphones at home.
D.Spend more time with their children.
4.What is the text about
A.Parents concern about screen time for children.
B.Children are addicted to screen time.
C.All parents limit children to phones.
D.Science has no effects on young minds.

Few fruits carry more health-promoting antioxidants(抗氧化剂) than blackcurrants(黑加仑).Widely grown in cooler parts of Europe,they are in high demand from consumers seeking chemical-free juices made from the berries.Farmers,though,can struggle to increase productions without relying on chemicals.That could change,not just for blackcurrants but other fruit too,with the careful use of probiotics(益生菌).
Probiotics is mostly known for its use of tiny living things,including certain bacteria,to restore or improve the digestion in people and animals.But plants can benefit from bacteria too.Among other things,bacteria help plants produce things that keep disease-causing viruses off their leaves,support them in collecting nutrition from the environment and help them melt minerals found in the soil.
Knowing all this,Virgilija Gaveliene and Sigita Jurkoniene,of the Institute of Botany Nature Research Centre in Lithuania,set out to find a way to use probiotics to increase the production of blackcurrant bushes,which are grown in that country.The researchers also knew from other work that the production of strawberries and raspberries could be increased by exposing plants to a carefully selected mix of bacteria.
As they report in Agricultural Science and Technology,the results were impressive.While thousand blackcurrants collected randomly(随意地) weighed just over 538 grams,the same number from the field exposed to bacteria treatments weighed nearly 783 grams.A similar increase was also true for the field using the probiotics.
Drs.Jurkoniene and Gaveliene are convinced that the right mix of bacteria can help blackcurrant farmers meet demand without using chemicals.And it could help other growers.What works for berries should,in theory,work for other fruit,like apples,pears and oranges.More experiments are needed to be sure.
5.Blackcurrants are in high demand mainly because .
A.they are widely grown in cooler parts of Europe
B.consumers are looking for berry juices free from chemicals
C.farmers increase production of blackcurrants using probiotics
D.few other fruits are more nutritious than blackcurrants
6.Probiotics can’t help plants to .
A.improve their digestion and nutrition
B.get rid of harmful viruses from their leaves
C.collect nutrition from the environment
D.melt minerals obtained from the soil
7.What can be inferred from the passage
A.Probiotics can only be used to prevent growth of plants.
B.Blackcurrants grown in Lithuania are more impressive.
C.Blackcurrant production is increased due to probiotics.
D.Bacteria must be removed from plants to promote production.
8.Where is the passage most probably selected from
A.An online novel.
B.A science magazine.
C.A travel brochure.
D.A fashion website.

(2024北京房山区上学期期末测试)
About five weeks ago,I noticed the skin of our pet lizard(蜥蜴) was growing dusty.It worried me.I reported the strange surface on the skin of the lizard to my husband and children the next morning.Seconds later,our lizard emerged from its tank with its old skin flowing behind it.
I didn’t think about it much until a morning last week when I knocked my favorite teapot off the table.It burst into hundreds of pieces.As I swept up the mess,I wondered why we had been breaking so many things over the months.
The damage started three months ago.It was my husband’s birthday.He had just lost his job.The uncertainty was starting to wear on us,so I wanted to do something special.
“Let’s make a cake for Dad!” I cried.
My kids screamed with joy.We baked,iced and sprinkled for most of the day.Candles on the cake!Balloons on the walls!Flowers on the table!
Two hours before my husband came back home from another job interview,my daughter climbed up to grab a glass vase from a high shelf.It fell and crashed beside the cake.Tiny pieces of glass were everywhere.She sobbed loudly as I threw the cake away.My husband had banana pudding for his birthday.
Three days ago,the light in our living room suddenly went out.After several frustrating hours of unsuccessful attempts to fix it,my husband suggested watching the Michael Jordan documentary(纪录片) series The Last Dance.
The poignancy (酸楚) of Jordan retiring from his beloved basketball to play baseball and what had pushed him to make such a tough decision took me by surprise.As I watched him take off his basketball uniform and replace it with a baseball uniform,I saw him leaving behind what no longer served him,just as our lizard had.Neither of them chose the moment that had transformed them.But they had to live with who they were after everything was different.Just like us.I realized that we have to learn to leave the past behind.
Humans do not shed skin as easily as other animals.The beginning of change is upsetting.The process is tiring.Damage changes us before we are ready.I see our lizard,raw and nearly new.
Jordan said that no matter how it ends,it starts with hope.With our tender,hopeful skin,that is where we begin.

Ⅴ.七选五
The Chongyang Festival falls on the ninth day of the ninth month in the Chinese lunar calendar and people usually celebrate it by going mountain climbing. 1 However,they are an important part of Chinese culture and we must protect and maintain them.
Traditional festivals teach us a lot about our nation’s history.The Dragon Boat Festival,for instance,is celebrated in honour of Qu Yuan,a great poet living in the Warring States period of the ancient China. 2 Promoting traditional festivals does help spread knowledge about our national history.
3 Many festivals,such as the Mid-Autumn Festival,have a caring,family-centered message at their heart.The full moon on the festival is considered to stand for family togetherness and the family members will come back home no matter how far away they live.With the celebrations of these festivals,younger generations learn to honour the fine Chinese values.
Finally,traditional festivals are a source of national pride and help shape our traditional identity.For example,we celebrate the Hanshi Festival and the Laba Festival with unique customs,and these shared experiences bring us together as a people. 4
To our pride,traditional festivals have been passed down to us from previous generations. 5
A.Some will get together,appreciating the full moon.
B.Memorizing national history helps with our all-around development.
C.It is our responsibility to protect them for the coming generations.
D.Traditional festivals also enable us to learn more about fine Chinese values.
E.Traditional festivals tell us who we are and fill us with pride in being Chinese.
F.Unfortunately,many traditional festivals are becoming less and less popular in modern society.
G.By celebrating it with rice dumplings and dragon boat races,the story of Qu Yuan is passed down from generation to generation.
