We know a lot about the advantages and disadvantages of reading a hard-copy book vs reading electronically. The problem is, many of us refuse to listen.
Don’t get me wrong: Digital reading has some real advantages. Ask people what they like most about reading on digital screens, and you hear over and again about convenience. More points for digital reading: e-books tend to be cheaper. There’s also the environmental argument. Think of the trees!
Yet the soundness of this case is arguable. The earth metals to build e-readers are not just rare but highly poisonous. And think about all that energy needed to run servers and cooling fans. And remember, trees are a renewable resource.
Then, there’s the appeal of a hard copy. Many people prefer print when reading both for pleasure and for school or work. Drawing examples from my own research, some of the reasons arc aesthetic(美学的). Others involve a sense of accomplishment, ease of annotation (“I can write on the pages”), and navigation (“easy to locate where I was”). Meanwhile, I hear abundant complaints about eye strain(干涩) and headaches when using screens.
Much of what students liked about reading print involved their minds. They say “it’s easier to focus.” Some also acknowledged they took more time with printed text and read more carefully.
But what makes the failure of electronic reading is concentration. More than 92 percent of those I surveyed said they concentrate best when reading a hard copy. When a digital device has an Internet connection, it’s hard to resist the temptation(诱惑).
So if digital interruptions don’t threaten your enjoyment or understanding of a text, then medium may not matter. Casual reading like David Baldacci? If you break to check sports scores, little harm done. But just don’t expect to understand Joyce’s novels this way.
1.What is an advantage of reading a hard-copy book?
A. It is cheaper. B. It is easier to carry around.
C. It helps people think deeper. D. It provides instant information.
2.What's the biggest problem of reading digitally?
A. Environmental concern. B. Physical discomfort.
C. Concentration. D. Internet connection.
3.What’s the author’s attitude towards e-reading?
A. Supportive. B. Disapproving. C. Optimistic. D. Unconcerned.
4.How is the passage mainly developed?
A. By analyzing possible reasons. B. By providing typical examples.
C. By listing practical suggestions. D. By presenting direct comparisons.

根据短文内容, 从短文中的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(共5小题, 每小题2分, 满分10分)
Some jobs require employees to work night shifts. Working the night shifts often means better money, but that also comes negative side effects.
The human body is naturally inclined（倾向于）to work during the day and sleep at night. 1. Your body will be able to fully adjust to this new style of rest and work. However, according to the National Sleep Foundation, constant exhaustion（疲倦） may be part of the lifestyle of working the night shift.
In addition to exhaustion from working the night shift, sleep disturbances can occur, even when your body has the opportunity to get some shut-eye during the day. 2. Instead of getting a full eight hours of sleep, which is what most people need, it’s typical for night shift workers to only take a long nap after their shift.
Working night shifts can also cause social and relational problems. Because many social events happen during the evening, people who work the shift miss out on important relationship-building opportunities. 3. When husbands or wives rarely see one another or rarely go to bed together, this will affect their communication and their marriage life.
4. Exhaustion, sleep problems, personal and relational issues and other health issues, over time, can lead to depression if not taken care of properly.
5. According to the National Sleep Foundation, you can avoid these problems by working with others during your shifts, taking naps during your shifts and setting up a support group with other employees to discuss the problems you’re facing.
A. Working night shifts can help us a lot.
B. So working the night shift will take an adjustment.
C. Doctor and nurses often work night shifts to care for their patients.
D. In the long run, this can be harmful to relationships, especially marriage.
E. What’s worse, depression is likely to occur with all of these factors.
F. Of course, you can do something to reduce the side effects of working night shifts.
G. Many people have trouble getting to sleep and staying asleep during daytime hours.

Crossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don't even notice that they're doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.
A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You won't feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can cause long-term health issues. So, planning to sit for a long period of time? Don't keep your legs crossed.
Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis (麻痹) of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your ankle—what we know as that “pins and needles” sensation. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.
So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.
1.What can we learn about crossing one's legs?
A. It is a very bad social habit.
B. It is usually practiced deliberately.
C. It can do harm to people's health.
D. It can make others feel uncomfortable.
2.According to the study, sitting with your legs crossed can______.
A. affect your blood pressure
B. resist gravity effectively
C. lead to heart attacks easily
D. improve the function of legs
3.In the third paragraph "pins and needles" probably means______.
A. slight sharp pains
B. being a little nervous
C. serious muscle injuries
D. being highly flexible
4.What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To compare common habits.
B. To give readers some advice.
C. To evaluate effects of an experiment.
D. To introduce research methods.

Teamwork is the ability to work together with other members toward a common goal. 1. Many factors influence the working of a team. If a team can’t get the desired results, try the following ways that would help improve teamwork.
Planning goals ahead: 2. When a goal is planned, all team members should be clear about their goal they have to achieve and then they should find a way that would lead them to achieve their goal.
Electing a team leader: A team is led by the team leader. 3. It is the leader’s duty to work out the conflicts(冲突) caused by different characters and attitudes.
Maintaining(维持) good relationships between team members: Teamwork needs cooperation. 4. So it will also be great if the team members can communicate outside the workplace to know each other more. This will help increase a sense of togetherness at work, thus improving teamwork.
Avoiding competition: Competition is important for a person’s growth. 5. One should understand that each person has his or her own strengths and weaknesses. Rather than compete with each other in the team, one should learn from others and improve his or her own performance.
A. It will be good for their cooperation if the members know each other well.
B. But there are many difficulties in teamwork.
C. The ability can help common people achieve uncommon goals.
D. His or her duty is to encourage and lead the team members to achieve their goal.
E. The goals should be easy enough to achieve.
F. However, unhealthy competition among group members can hurt team spirit.
G. It is the duty of all the members to work together to plan the goal.

The behavior of a building’s users may be at least as important as its design when it comes to energy use, according to new research from the UK Energy Research Center(UKERC). The UK promised to reduce its carbon emissions by 80 percent by 2050, part of which will be achieved by all new homes being zero-carbon by 2016. But this report shows that sustainable(可持续的) building design on its own, though extremely important, is not enough to achieve such reductions: the behavior of the people using the building has to change too.
The study suggests that the ways that people use and live in their homes have been largely ignored by existing efforts to improve energy efficiency, which instead focus on architectural and technological developments.
“Technology is going to assist but it is not going to do everything,” explains Katy Janda, a UKERC senior researcher, “consumption patterns of building users can defeat the most careful design.” In other words, old habits die hard, even in the best-designed eco-home.
Another part of the problem is information. Households and bill-payers don’t have the knowledge they need to change their energy-use habits. Without specific information, it’s hard to estimate the costs and benefits of making different choices. Feedback(反馈) facilities, like smart meters and energy monitors, could help bridge this information gap by helping people see how changing their behavior directly affects their energy use; some studies have shown that households can achieve up to 15 percent energy savings using smart meters.
Social science research has added a further dimension(方面), suggesting that individuals’ behavior in the home can be personal and cannot be predicted—whether people throw open their windows rather than turn down the thermostat(恒温器), for example.
Janda argues that education is the key. She calls for a focused program to teach people about buildings and their own behavior in them.
1.As to energy use, the new research from UKERC stresses the importance of ________.
A. zero-carbon homes B. the behavior of building users
C. sustainable building design D. the reduction of carbon emissions
2.The underlined word “which” in Paragraph 2 refers to “________”.
A. the ways B. their homes C. developments D. existing efforts
3.What are Katy Janda’s words mainly about?
A. The importance of changing building users’ habits.
B. The necessity of making a careful building design.
C. The variety of consumption patterns of building users.
D. The role of technology in improving energy efficiency.
