Dear Jack，
How is everything going？Delighted to learn you are interested in the sports meeting held in my school，I'm writing to share with you some details．
Usually held in October annually on the school playground，it's a splendid platform for us to take an active part in sports and bring out the best in ourselves．This year I joined in the 1500-metre race，which was a great challenge for me．But with my adequate preparations and my classmates'encouragement，I got third prize finally，which made me convinced that nothing is impossible for a willing heart．
Would you please share your school life with me？Looking forward to your reply．
Yours，
Li Hua
[片段1]
She expressed her sadness for not having enough money to buy her sick mom a birthday cake．Hearing what had happened to the girl's mother，the old lady couldn't help hugging Janie，comforting her，and decided to do something for her．She reached into her pocket，pulled out some money，and handed it to Janie．Then she led the girl back to the cake store．
[片段2]
It was our time．We just relaxed and enjoyed the time out．We never went to any expensive place，but my kids enjoyed the days with me．One day，one of my kids asked me who sent such a new beautiful mom to her．I smiled，“It was a magician who gave me some special days in the hospital and the hope for our new life．It was you two kids．”

Fire has been known for its powerful energy and is used in both ancient and modern ceremonies．Festivals about fire are celebrated all around the world．You can learn about some of them below．
The Torch (火把) Festival
The Torch Festival takes place from the 24th to the 26th of lunar June every year in China．It is an important traditional festival of the Yi，Naxi，and Bai ethnic people in Southwestern China．For 3 days，the people carry burning torches and take part in a variety of activities．Fruits，fireworks and lanterns are all festively hung around the torch．
The Burning Man Festival
The Burning Man Festival，which began in 1986，is based on the idea of community，inclusion，creativity，fashion and anti-consumerism．It is an eight-day festival held in Nevada，America from late August to early September．At this time of year，people from all over the world come here．All participants are called burners．
The Fire and Snow Festival
In mid-February every year，in the depths of cold winter，the Fire and Snow Festival takes place in Japan．Originally，this festival had its roots in a purification ceremony．In modern times，however，the festival is more than a community event．A sweet drink，made from rice is served up there．
The Jeongwol Daeboreum Deulbli Festival
Another fire celebration to take place in February is the Jeongwol Daeboreum Deulbli Festival in the Republic of Korea，Asia．The festival goes back centuries，when local families would keep cows．Farmers would set fire to the mountains to destroy old grass and kill harmful insects．Now，a hilltop is set to pray for health and a good harvest in the coming year．
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇應用文。文章主要介紹了幾個與火有關的中外節日。
1．Which one is the Chinese festival？
A．The Torch Festival．
B．The Burning Man Festival．
C．The Fire and Snow Festival．
D．The Jeongwol Daeboreum Deulbli Festival．
√
A　[細節理解題。根據The Torch Festival部分中的“The Torch Festival takes place from the 24th to the 26th of lunar June every year in China．(火把節在中國每年的農歷六月二十四日至二十六日舉行。)”可知，The Torch Festival是屬于中國的節日。故選A項。]
2．What do the last two festivals have in common？
A．They take place in European countries．
B．They are celebrated in the same month．
C．The festival participants are called burners．
D．The purpose of them is to destroy old grass．
√
B　[細節理解題。根據The Fire and Snow Festival部分中的“In mid-February every year，in the depths of cold winter，the Fire and Snow Festival takes place in Japan．(每年的二月中旬，在最寒冷的冬天，日本都會舉行火雪節。)”可知，The Fire and Snow Festival是日本的節日，通常是在二月中旬舉行；根據The Jeongwol Daeboreum Deulbli Festival部分中的“Another fire celebration to take place in February is the Jeongwol Daeboreum Deulbli Festival in the Republic of
Korea，Asia．(另一個在二月份舉行的火節是在亞洲韓國舉辦的‘正月大滿月慶典’。)”可知，the Jeongwol Daeboreum Deulbli Festival是亞洲韓國的節日，通常是在二月舉行，由此可知，最后兩個節日均是在二月舉行。故選B項。]
√
3．In which part of a magazine is the text probably found？
A．Diet．　　　　　　　　　　　 B．Health．
C．Culture． D．Education．
C　[推理判斷題。根據首段中的“Festivals about fire are celebrated all around the world．You can learn about some of them below．(世界各地都在慶祝與火有關的節日。您可以在下面了解其中的一些。)”可知，本文介紹的是世界各地慶祝的與火有關的節日。由此推知，文章可能出自雜志的文化部分。故選C項。]
B
Every American family has its own traditions on Thanksgiving Day，and mine is no different．Once the national holiday arrives，my mom rises early to make the meal．She puts a turkey in the oven，chops carrots and bakes pies．I'm sorry to say that the men in the family—my dad，my younger brother and myself—rarely pitch in to help．Our job is to wash the mountain of dirty dishes after the meal is over．
Around 2 p．m．every Thanksgiving Day，family members seat themselves around the kitchen table．Plates of turkey，vegetables，salad，rolls and pies cover it．At this point，we can hardly keep ourselves from drooling (流口水) all over our fancy clothes，but it's not yet time to eat．
First，we must bow our heads，close our eyes and say a prayer of thanks aloud to God for giving us everything we have．Under normal circumstances，I would have no problem making a list of things I am thankful for．I grew up in a loving family．My parents，who aren't wealthy，took out loans to help me pay for university．
However，the funny thing is，every time I sit down for Thanksgiving dinner and try to say a prayer of thanks，my mind usually goes blank．I think it has something to do with my growling (咕咕叫) stomach and all of that food sitting right there under my nose．
Eventually，though，we all finish our short prayers and dig in．To be sure，the day includes other highlights—visiting with family and watching football matches on TV．But usually around 6 p．m．we are all ourselves stuffed like turkeys and thankful to have a nice warm bed to sleep in．
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇記敘文。作者對自己的家人如何慶祝感恩節進行了描寫，充分展現了一家人其樂融融的景象。
4．What is the purpose of the text？
A．To tell what the family do for Thanksgiving Day．
B．To tell how the family spend Thanksgiving Day．
C．To introduce foods served on Thanksgiving Day．
D．To introduce the American Thanksgiving Day．
√
B　[寫作意圖題。作者開門見山地點明了每個美國家庭都有自己的感恩節傳統，然后詳細描述了他們一家人在這一天的活動，因此B項“講述這一家人如何度過感恩節”符合題意。故選B。]
√
5．On Thanksgiving Day the author's family do the following except ____．
A．watching a movie
B．making visits
C．having a big meal
D．watching football matches
A　[細節理解題。文章前四段描述作者一家人準備感恩節大餐，最后一段的首句“Eventually，though，we all finish our short prayers and dig in．”說明一家人終于開吃了，首先排除C項；再由尾段第二句“To be sure，the day includes other highlights—visiting with family and watching football matches on TV．”可知，這一天作者一家人還會走訪親友以及觀看足球比賽等，故排除B、D兩項；文章沒有提及A項活動，故選A。]
√
6．Why does the author's mind usually go blank when saying a prayer of thanks？
A．He is too thankful to say a word．
B．His mind is on the food before him．
C．He feels too excited to speak．
D．He is too shy to speak in public．
B　[細節理解題。根據第四段中的“I think it has something to do with my growling stomach and all of that food sitting right there under my nose．”可知，作者吃大餐之前祈禱以示感恩時，心思全被眼前的美食所吸引，所以B項正確。故選B。]
√
7．What does the underlined phrase“dig in”in the last paragraph mean？
A．Chat with others． B．Make a hole．
C．Mix things up． D．Start eating．
D　[詞義猜測題。前文描述了一家人準備大餐以及作者的心思全被眼前美食所吸引的情形，再由畫線詞所在句中的Eventually“終于”一詞可知，dig in在此表示(一家人)“開吃”了。故選D。]
C
Dogs in the classroom lower stress of primary school students，new research has found．The study by UK researchers found spending some time with a dog twice a week was better for reducing stress on students than many other classroom relaxation activities．And the benefits of these“dog dates”were similar for children in both normal and special schools．
Stress is known to negatively influence a child's learning，behaviour，health and mood．This has led schools to try a number of ways to reduce stress，including yoga，mindfulness，physical activity and even having animals in classrooms．
The researchers from the University of Lincoln measured students'stress levels by tracking the level of the stress in their saliva (唾液)．They studied 105 students aged 8 to 9 in four normal schools as well as 44 children of a similar age in seven special schools in the UK．The children were divided into three groups：a group that spent time with a dog；a group that spent time doing relaxation activities；and a“control”group that did neither of these things．Students in the dog group spent 20 minutes with a trained dog twice a week for four weeks．The relaxation group spent the same amount of time doing exercise．
The researchers found that the children in the dog group had“extremely low”stress levels，while those in the relaxation and control groups recorded an increase over the school term．The study，which was published in the journal PLOS ONE，also found stress was lowest in the children in the dog group immediately after their contact with the puppies．“Dog-assisted activities can lead to lower stress levels in schoolchildren with and without special educational needs，”University of Lincoln researcher Kerstin Meints said，“but more research is needed to discover what was the ideal amount of time and contact with dogs for the best effect．”
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了一項新的研究發現，狗狗在教室里與小學生適當接觸可以降低小學生的壓力。
8．What is the benefit of having dogs in the classroom according to the research？
A．Lowering stress for students．
B．Making students less lonely．
C．Building up students'health．

Researchers have discovered many recent Marsquakes on the Red Planet．Those shakes are likely signs that magma (巖漿) moves deep under the Martian surface．
Since touching down on Mars four years ago，NASA's InSight lander has found more than 1，000 Marsquakes．One of its tools records quake waves．Those waves show information about a quake's size and location．
Earlier this year，scientists showed that several Marsquakes came from a particular part of Mars．It's known as Cerberus Fossae．Those quakes were a type pretty familiar to quake experts，states Anna Mittelholz，a planetary scientist at Harvard University．Their low-frequency waves“look much more like what we see for an earthquake，”she says．
Mittelholz was part of a team that has studied many more Marsquakes．These include more than 1，000 high-frequency small quakes．The signals (信號) are fairly weak．To find out their origins，her team added the signals together．These quakes，too，seemed to come from the direction of Cerberus Fossae．
Scientists were surprised to find that different types of quakes all came from the same region on Mars．Previous research had suggested Marsquakes might be caused by the slow cooling and shrinking (收縮) of the planet's surface．That process，which also occurs on the moon，should produce quakes spread equally across the planet．As such，Mittelholz says，“The expectation was that Marsquakes would come from all over the place．”
Her team also compared the weak waves that InSight measured with those produced on Earth．Marsquakes looked like earthquakes that came from volcanic regions，the researchers found．That means Mars'shakes are probably produced by magma flowing tens of kilometers below the planet's surface．
Rather than being a geologically dead planet，as some have suggested，Mars might be surprisingly active，the researchers conclude (下結論)．“There's still so much more to learn about Mars，”says Mittelholz，“We're only touching the surface．”
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了研究人員發現了很多火星地震，并介紹了這些地震發生的原因、位置等。
12．Why are the quake waves on Mars familiar to scientists？
A．They are like the waves on Earth．
B．They are sent from the same place．
C．They are weak enough to be sensed．
D．They are full of all kinds of information．
√
A　[細節理解題。根據第三段中的“Those quakes were a type pretty familiar to quake experts，states Anna Mittelholz，a planetary scientist at Harvard University．Their low-frequency waves‘look much more like what we see for an earthquake，’she says．”可知，科學家對火星上的地震波很熟悉是因為它們就像地球上的地震波一樣。故選A。]
√
13．Why is the moon mentioned in paragraph 5？
A．To show quakes on the moon are common．
B．To give an easy explanation of earthquakes．
C．To show the similarity between the moon and Earth．
D．To prove Marsquakes may have little to do with temperatures．
D　[推理判斷題。根據第五段中的“Scientists were surprised to find that different types of quakes all came from the same region on Mars．Previous research had suggested Marsquakes might be caused by the slow cooling and shrinking of the planet's surface．That process，which also occurs on the moon，should produce quakes spread equally across the planet．”可知，提到月球是為了證明火星上的地震可能與溫度變化無關。故選D。]
√
14．What do the scientists conclude about Mars？
A．Mars is a secret to them．
B．Mars is a relatively dead planet．
C．Mars might be still volcanically active．
D．Mars has more quakes than Earth．
C　[推理判斷題。根據最后一段中的“Rather than being a geologically dead planet，as some have suggested，Mars might be surprisingly active，the researchers conclude．”可知，火星可能是個火山活躍的星球。故選C。]
√
15．What is the text？
A．A short story．　　　　 B．A science report．
C．A space diary． D．A book review．
B　[推理判斷題。通讀全文，尤其是第一段中的“Researchers have discovered many recent Marsquakes on the Red Planet．Those shakes are likely signs that magma moves deep under the Martian surface．”可知，文章主要介紹了研究人員發現了很多火星地震，并介紹了這些地震發生的原因、位置等，由此可推知，這是一篇科技報道類文章。故選B。]

When you find a way to enjoy what you're studying,you'll be more motivated (激發) to do well in school — and might even have fun doing it!
　16?。甀f you can find the things you like learning about,this can help you become more interested in school in general．Think about which classes you pay the most attention to．This can help you know which subjects you are naturally interested in．
Think about classes you don't like in an objective (客觀的) way．　17　．Try thinking about the purpose of the classes you are taking and think about classes as stepping stones．For example,if you want to go to college,then you know you need to do well in your high school classes,and this can encourage you to become interested in them．
Reduce stress (減輕壓力)．While academic difficulties in a certain subject might cause you to lose interest in school,other common stress factors (因素) can do the same．　18　．If you are having problems in an area like one of these,talk to a parent,teacher,or friend you trust to get help．If you can reduce your stress,you are more likely to be interested in your studies．
Don't be overly competitive．Some friendly competition can be fun．　19?。瓼ocus on doing well for yourself and achieving your goals．Try to be competitive only when it is fun and makes you interested in school．　20?。甋et realistic goals,and don't worry too much about what others are doing．
A．Know what interests you naturally
B．You don't have to be the best at everything
C．Try to form a study group to get schoolwork done
D．However,too much competition produces anxiety
E．You'll feel good about the progress you make each day

I hope everything goes well with you! I can't wait to tell you about the annual sports meeting held in our school last week．
It included quite a number of sports events．Almost all events were interesting for me，of which the women's 3，000-metre race was the most impressive．An athlete slipped and fell down in the race but she swiftly rose to her feet and kept running．Her spirit of striving and never giving up inspired everyone present．Crowds of students and teachers surrounding the sports field cheered for her loudly．
How about the sports participation in your school？I'm looking forward to hearing from you．
Yours,

閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
People often have a tough time dealing with their feelings of disappointment．That is when you should give them time and understanding and he or she just might come around before long．
I remember talking with my friend Avery about the coming school play Alice's Adventure in Wonderland，which we both applied for．Avery had a talent for acting and she was anxious for playing Alice
while for me I didn't care what part I played as long as I would be in．However，when the character list was posted，we were surprised to find that I got the part of Alice and Avery was chosen to act the rabbit．I guessed it was because I hadn't been nervous at all during the audition (試演)．But that situation really didn't occur to me．
Then I asked Avery，“Do you want to come over after school and we can practice our lines？”“You mean，practice your lines？”Avery replied，not even looking at me，“No，thanks．I'm pretty busy this week．”I continued to ask if it would be OK for next week but her answer was negative and full of anger．
That night at dinner，after my parents congratulated me on getting the lead role，they asked how I felt．“Well，I can't understand．”I said and told them about Avery's reaction and I believed that she pretty much threw away our friendship．
“Hmm，”said my dad，“Arizona，don't you think this might be an opportunity for you to be an extra-good friend？”“Dad's right，”added my mom，“Sometimes when our friends do well，we feel envious (羨慕的) and don't know how to act．Try giving her a little time and understanding．She'll come around．”
Over the next week，I did my best to give Avery some space．I practiced my lines but I knew I needed some help since my voice was not expressive enough．Day by day，Avery's attitude seemed softened．As the rehearsal (彩排) day was near，I made a decision．
注意：1．續寫詞數應為150左右；
2．請按如下格式作答。
One day after school in the rehearsal room，I approached Avery．___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Then came the big day．_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
[參考范文]
One day after school in the rehearsal room，I approached Avery．“Hey，Avery，”I said，“I was wondering if you could help me with my lines．I know you're busy，but I really need your help．”Avery looked up at me and smiled．“Sure，I'd be happy to help．”We spent the next hour going over my lines and she gave me some great advice on how to make my performance more expressive．I was so grateful for her help and I could tell that she was happy to be able to help me．
Then came the big day．We both performed our parts perfectly and the audience was thrilled．After the show，Avery and I hugged each other and thanked each other for our help．I was so glad that I had given her time and understanding，and that she had come around．From then on，we were even better friends than before．

Sharks are among the best swimmers on the planet,but a new research suggests that even they sometimes“hold their breath”while diving deep underwater．The reason is that sharks are cold-blooded and their body temperature matches the waters they swim in．To do deep dives,they must maintain body heat,and the best way to do that is to close their gills (鰓)．
Royer,a leading researcher at the University of Hawaii,set out to study the diving habits of hammerheads(雙髻鯊)．They're known for swimming in warmer coastal waters,but earlier studies showed they can also dive to over 800 metres below the surface．At those cold depths,the water temperature falls to as low as 5℃．
For these sharks,the fall in temperature is a matter of life and death．Because a shark can't produce its own body heat,it begins to freeze the deeper it goes．Its muscles,eyes and brain become sluggish (遲緩的)．If it gets too cold,it can't swim．And if it stops swimming,water doesn't go across its gills．It can't breathe and will eventually drown．
How is it that hammerheads are able to go down into these deep depths and survive？To find out,Royer and his colleagues caught the fish and attached an electronic sensor to each shark．The sensor would release itself from the shark's body after several weeks．The data they found amazed them:The sharks dived,spent just a few minutes at depths and then they shot towards the surface．They closed their gills and kept water out of their gills so that their body wouldn't cool down．
“Unlike animals with lungs,the sharks don't return to the surface to breathe．Instead,they simply go to a depth where it's warm enough for them to feel comfortable and reopen their gills．Hammerheads are probably not the only species doing so．Our work is another example of how new electronic sensors help to explain the extraordinary ability of these animals across 400 million years of changing ocean environments，”Royer said．
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。新的研究發現：水溫的下降對于鯊魚來說是生死攸關的問題，鯊魚在深海潛水時，為了保持體溫，會合上它們的鰓“屏住呼吸”，在深處只待幾分鐘后，就沖向一個足夠溫暖的深度，然后重新打開它們的鰓自由呼吸。
4．What does the new research focus on concerning the sharks？
A．Their hunting habits．
B．Their basic types．
C．Their special behaviours．
D．Their body structures．

C　[細節理解題。根據第一段中的“Sharks are among the best swimmers on the planet,but a new research suggests that even they sometimes‘hold their breath’while diving deep underwater．”和第四段中的“How is it that hammerheads are able to go down into these deep depths and survive？To find out,Royer and his colleagues caught the fish and attached an electronic sensor to each shark．”可知，研究的結果是：鯊魚在深海潛水時有時也會“屏住呼吸”，所以新的研究重點是關于這些鯊魚在深海區存活下來的特殊行為。故選C項。]
√
5．What does the underlined word“that”in paragraph 1 refer to？
A．Keeping body heat．
B．Holding their breath．
C．Swimming on the surface．
D．Diving deep in the sea．
A　[代詞指代題。根據第一段中的“The reason is that sharks are cold-blooded and their body temperature matches the waters they swim in．To do deep dives,they must maintain body heat,and the best way to do that is to close their gills．”和第四段中的“They closed their gills and kept water out of their gills so that their body wouldn't cool down．”可知，that指代上文的maintain body heat，即要保持體溫，就要合上鰓屏住呼吸，與A項“Keeping body heat”意思相同，故選A項。]
6．What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about hammerheads？
A．How their gills work in the sea．
B．How the temperature drop affects them．
C．Why they can survive the terrible environment．
D．Why they can protect themselves from the cold．
B　[段落大意題。根據第三段可知，海洋深處的水溫下降對鯊魚來說是生死攸關的問題，故第三段主要講述了水溫下降對鯊魚的影響。故選B項。]
√
7．What can we know from Royer's words？
A．Hammerheads depend on their lungs to breathe．
B．The diving strategy may not be unique to hammerheads．
C．It's hard for hammerheads to adapt to the cold conditions．
D．It's common for hammerheads to stay long at great depths．
√
B　[推理判斷題。根據最后一段中的“Unlike animals with lungs,the sharks don't return to the surface to breathe．Instead,they simply go to a depth where it's warm enough for them to feel comfortable and reopen their gills．Hammerheads are probably not the only species doing so．”可知，Royer的意思為：‘屏住呼吸’的鯊魚不會到水面上來呼吸，而是到達一個足夠溫暖的深度，就可以重新打開它們的鰓自由呼吸了，這種潛水策略可能并不是雙髻鯊獨有的，即其他一些海洋生物可能也有這種潛水策略。故選B項。]
C
It's time to put down the phone and look away from Instagram．Researchers found that people who look at pictures of food are less likely to enjoy the next meal they eat．
Ryan Elder and Jeff Larson of Brigham Young University asked 232 people to look at photos of food and rate them．The researchers divided the participants into two groups—one group looked at 60 photos of desserts,while the other examined 60 photos of salty foods．Participants
ranked each photo based on how attractive the food looked．Afterward both groups enjoyed a snack of salted peanuts．The group that looked at pictures of salty foods liked the peanuts less than the group who looked at desserts,even though no one saw photos of peanuts．
“If you want to enjoy your meal,avoid looking at too many pictures of food，”Larson said，“Even I felt a little sick to my stomach during the study after looking at all the sweet pictures we had．”
The researchers believe that food doesn't taste as good after viewing all those photos because looking at many photos makes people feel as if they have already experienced the sensation of eating．Whatever someone eats after looking at photos doesn't seem as good as what she saw．
“In a way,you're becoming tired of that taste without even eating the food，”said Elder，“It's sensory boredom—you've kind of moved on．You don't want that taste experience anymore．”
But there is some good news:People need to look at a lot of food photos to experience sensory boredom．So if you want to enjoy your next brunch,play it safe and stay away from your foodie friends'photo albums．
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。文章講述了研究人員的發現，即盯著食物照片的人不太可能享受他們吃的下一餐，并解釋了Instagram影響人們食欲的原因。
8．What did the researchers do in the experiment？
A．They showed peanut pictures to participants．
B．They chose 232 participants who enjoy eating．
C．They reminded participants to avoid sweet food．
D．They asked participants to eat some salted peanuts．
D　[細節理解題。根據第二段中的“Afterward both groups enjoyed a snack of salted peanuts．”可知，研究人員要求參與者吃一些咸花生。故選D項。]
√
9．What happened to the participants in the salty group？
A．They were afraid of rating food pictures．
B．They found salted peanuts less enjoyable．
C．They enjoyed their meals a lot more．

B　[細節理解題。根據第二段中的“The group that looked at pictures of salty foods liked the peanuts less than the group who looked at desserts,even though no one saw photos of peanuts．”可知，他們覺得咸花生不那么美味了。故選B項。]
10．Which of the following shows“sensory boredom”？

11．What is the best title for the passage？
A．How We Can Stay Away from Instagram
B．What Causes People to Enjoy Salty Foods
C．Why Instagram Is Reducing Your Appetite
D．Which Food Tastes Less Delicious
√
C　[標題歸納題。根據第一段“It's time to put down the phone and look away from Instagram．Researchers found that people who look at pictures of food are less likely to enjoy the next meal they eat．”可知，文章主要解釋了為什么Instagram會影響人們的食欲。故選C項。]

Since terrorist attack in 2019 that killed 50 people in New Zealand was live-streamed on Facebook,many of the negative effects of social media have begun to be known．So far,it's not looking good．
Not that social media is bad in nature．It does not necessarily cause mental health problems．What it is doing,however—especially in young people,a new study argues—is increasing the number of cases of young people's depression and suicide (自殺)．
The new study,led by psychologist Jean Twenge at San Diego State University,has researched the effects of technology and social media on the teenager brain．For this study,Twenge and her partners researched data from 2005 to 2017．They wanted to know what age groups suffered more from depression．Chance of mood disorders,they write,“generally becomes less with age．”In this date range,depressive cases increased by 63 percent among young people aged 12 to 17,and 52 percent among young adults aged 18 to 25．
There are two tendencies that appear to be causing this problem．
According to the study,the increased use of electronic communication and digital media during this time period may have changed ways of socialising enough to affect mood disorders and suicide-related results．For example,people who spend more time on social media and less time with others face-to-face report poorer health and are more likely to be depressed．
Tied into increased screen time,which could lead to being affected by cyber-bullying,are sleep issues．Sleep duration is decreasing among all age groups,but especially young adults during a time in life when they need it the most．Lack of sleep has been linked to mood disorders,suicidal thoughts,and suicide attempts．
Using the technology for good is one step forward．But another would be to put the phone down more often．If you've only grown up in a world viewed through a screen,learning that other world—namely,the real one—exists might seem impossible．Therefore,some distance is feeling more necessary day by day．
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇議論文。文章談論了社交媒體的負面作用，呼吁人們減少使用手機。
12．How did the team carry out the research？
A．By studying the data．
B．By studying behaviour．
C．By doing experiments．
D．By interviewing people．
√
