I have completely forgotten the name of an old lady who was a customer on my paper route
when I was a twelve-year-old boy in Marinette, Wisconsin back in 1954.
On a mindless Saturday afternoon, a friend and I were throwing rocks onto the roof of the old
lady’s house in her backyard. The object of our play was to observe how the rocks changed to
missiles as they rolled to the roofs’ edge and shot out into the yard like comets falling from the sky.
I found myself a perfectly smooth rock. The stone was too smooth, however, so it slipped from
my hand as I let it go and headed straight for a small window on the old lady’s back porch. At the
sound of fractured glass, we ran away very fast.
I was scared about getting caught that first night. However, a few days later, when I was sure
that I hadn’t been discovered, I started to feel guilty for her misfortune.
I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money, and in three weeks I had the
seven dollars that I calculated would cover the cost of her window. I put the money in an envelope
with a note explaining that I was sorry for breaking her window.
I waited until it was dark, snuck up to
the old lady’s house, and put the envelope through the
letter slot in her door.
The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and was able to return the warm smile that I was
receiving from her. She thanked me for the paper and said, “Here
，
I have something for you. ” It
was a bag of cookies. I thanked her and began to eat the cookies as I continued my route.
After several cookies, I felt an envelope and pulled it out of the bag. When I opened the
envelope, I was astonished. Inside was the seven dollars and a short note that said, “I'm proud of
you. ”
The author and his fri

We’ve all heard the same warning: looking at your phone or another screen before bed is very
bad for you. It may make it harder for you to fall asleep and prevent you from getting a good night’s
rest. Most sleep doctors suggest turning off screens an hour before bedtime. The reality is that, for
the majority of us, cell phones, tablets, or TVs are the last things we look at before we close our eyes.
Our smartphones can sometimes feel like an extension of
our bodies because we’re so physically
connected to them. Screens in general have become such a
prominent
part of our lives that it can
feel completely unrealistic to put them away earlier in the evening. But according to sleep doctors,
it’s a smart idea t
o at least give it a try.
At night, your brain starts to produce a hormone called melatonin(
褪黑色素
), which keeps
your circadian rhythm on track and helps you fall asleep, according to the National Center for
Complementary and Integrative Health. Being exposed to bright light suppresses melatonin
production, says Philip Richard Gehrman, a behavioral sleep specialist and associate professor of
clinical psychology in psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine.
“Blue light has the strongest impact,” he adds, “and the types of LED lights used in most electronic
devices are strongest in the blue part of the spectrum.”
Why is blue light particularly bad? Dr. Gehrman explains that the very specialized cells in the
eyes that feed into our sleep system and circadian rhythms, called retinal ganglion
cells, respond
strongly to blue light in comparison to other types of light.
“Beyond the light you’re exposing yourself to, there’s also the simple truth that it’s easy to get
caught up in what
you’re reading or watching, which leads to staying awake a lot later than you
should,” says Shelby Harris, clinical psychologist in private practice in New York. “Even if you’ve
got the self-control to switch off Netflix after a reasonable number of episodes, depending on what
you just watched or read, you may be too mentally stimulated to fall asleep anyway.”

A.

D.

How does bright light “work”
at night?

What is special about blue light?
A.
It has the longest effect on our sleep.
C.

11.
What can we learn from Shelby Harris’ words?
A.
Self-control will help us escape the influence of television.
B.
What we are reading and watching can help us sleep longer.

A severe drought(
干旱
) that has caused water levels in Southeast Asia's Mekong River to drop
to their lowest in more than 100 years could have devastating(
毁灭性的
) consequences for fish, as
well as the tens of millions of people living and working along the river, experts warn.
This year, the dry conditions in the Mekong region persisted(
持续
) due to warm Pacific Ocean
currents(
洋流
)known as the EI Nino effect. But climate change is also a driving factor, experts say,
causing the rainy season to shorten considerably. The situation was made worse by hydropower (
水
利发电
)dam operators upstream, in China and Laos , with holding water for their own purposes.
Many rice farmers in the region have been unable to plant their main crop, raising fears 'of a
heavily diminished harvest this fall. Less water flow could also have a devastating impact on fish
reproduction in the Mekong River basin. Perhaps even more alarming, experts expect that droughts
and disruptions(
中断
)to the water flow of the Mekong will become more common, and they warn
that it could eventually lead to the ruin of the entire ecosystem.
Originating in the Tibetan highlands, the Mekong River flows through six Asian counties
before emptying into the South China Sea. The river basin is home to the largest inland fishery in the
world and more than 60 million people depend on it for their livelihoods.
Few rivers in the world rise and fall with the seasons as much as the Mekong, which can drop
Few rivers in the world rise and fall with the seasons as much as the Mekong, which can drop up
to40 feet in some places at the end of the dry season. When the rainy season arrives, they normally
produce a flood pulse that brings with it sediment(
沉淀
) important to agriculture as well as huge
amounts of tiny fish, including many critically endangered species such as the Mekong giant catfish,
that are swept into the Tonle Sap Lake and other floodplains where they can mature.
12.
What is true about the Mekong River?
A.
The Mekong River basin is home to the largest fishery in the world.
B.
The average depth of the Mekong River in the dry season is 40 feet.
C.
The water of the Mekong River has fallen to the lowest level in history.
D.
The Mekong River originates in China and flows into the South China Sea.
13.
What is the paragraph 2 mainly about?
A.
The benefits of the Mekong River this year,
B.
The climate change of the Mekong River this year.
C.
The natural disasters of the Mekong River this year.
D.
The reasons for the drought of Mekong River this year.
14.
What does the underlined word “diminished” mean in paragraph 3?
A.
Plentiful.
B.
Decreasing.
C.
Large.
D.
Disappointing.
15.
What's the attitude of experts to water flow of Mekong River in future?
A.
Optimistic.
B.
Neutral.
C.
Worried.
