However, the amount of sleep you need
10、per night is mainly determined by your age.Official recommendations for the length of a persons sleep are broken down by age group:Older adults (65+): 78 hoursAdults (1864 years): 79 hoursTeenagers (1417 years): 810 hoursSchool children (613 years): 911 hoursPreschoolers (35 years): 1013 hours (incl
11、uding naps)Toddlers (12 years): 1114 hours (including naps)Infants (412 months): 1215 hours (including naps)Newborns (03 months): 1417 hoursHowever, some people might need more or less sleep than is generally recommended, depending on the following factors.Genetic makeupYour genetics are an importan
12、t factor in how many hours of sleep you need per night.For example, those with one specific genetic mutation (基因突变) need only around 6 hours, whereas people without it require about 8 hours, on average.Sleep qualityThe quality of your sleep can also affect how much you need.If your sleep quality is
13、poor, you may find that you still feel tired after getting what should be considered enough.Therefore, its not only important to focus on sleeping long enough but also on sleeping well enough. If you often feel like you arent sleeping well or are extremely tired and dont know why, its a good idea to
14、 check in with your healthcare provider.21. What is the main reason for the amount of sleep we need per night?A. Sleep quality.B. Genetics.C. Our age.D. Our eating habits.22. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. All the school children need to sleep for 9 to 11 hours

16、shion website.D. A sports newspaper.BWhen my son Ryan was six years old and in first grade, his teacher, Nancy, talked to his class about developing countries and how they could help people, particularly children, in other parts of the world. She explained that besides not having toys or enough food
17、, some of them didnt even have clean water. For these children sitting in their comfortable classroom in Kemptville, Ontario, the idea of children not having any toys, or enough food or water, had a huge impact.The principal had distributed a list that showed the costs of buying supplies in developi
18、ng countries. A penny would buy a pencil, a dollar a hot meal, two dollars a blanket. Seventy dollars would buy a well. When Ryan heard people died because they didnt have clean water, he was deeply affected. He came home that day and insisted he needed seventy dollars for class.Mark and I discussed
19、 it, then explained to Ryan that seventy dollars was a lot of money. If he was really interested in doing something, however, he could earn it. He happily agreed, so we put an old cookie tin on top of the refrigerator and started giving him chores. He did chores for the neighbours and his grandparen
20、ts, too. After four months, Ryan was nearing his goal.In April 1998 we went for our meeting with WaterCan, a Canadian nonprofit organization providing clean water to people in developing countries. And Ryan brought his cookie tin full of money. Nicole, the director, and Helen, her assistant, thanked
21、 him and told him how important his donation was. Then they told us it would cost a lot more than $70 to build a wellin fact, it would cost $2,000.Ryan wasnt concerned and replied simply, “Thats okay. Ill just do more chores!” News about what Ryan was doing got out, and soon we were getting calls fr
22、om the media.When the Ottawa Citizen did a story on Ryans well, we began to receive donations at least once a week. People from all over were catching Ryans dream and were inspired to give.24. What inspired Ryan to help kids in developing countries?A. Parents support.B. Ryans warm heart.C. The princ
23、ipals list.D. Nancys explanation.25. What did Ryan decide to do to help the kids?A. He planned to donate 70$ to a charity.B. He intended to pay for a well for the kids.C. He desired to purchase hots meals for the kids.D. He wanted to buy blankets and pencils for the kids.26. What happened after the
24、Ottawa Citizen did a story on Ryans well?A. Donations were received once a month.B. People were inspired to give a helping hand.C. Ryan did more chores and donated more money.D. The media called Ryan and his family frequently.27. Whats the suitable title for the passage?A. Ryans Well of Life.B. A Jo
25、int Effort.C. A Warm-hearted Kid.D. Kids in Need.CArtificial intelligence (AI) is showing promise in earthquake prediction, challenging the long-held belief that it is impossible. Researchers at the University of Texas,Austin, have developed an AI algorithm (算法) that correctly predicted 70% of earth
26、quakes a week in advance during a trial in Chinaandprovided accurate strength calculations for the predicted earthquakes. The research team believes their method succeeded because they stuck with a relatively simple machine learning approach. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features ba
27、sed on the teams knowledge of earthquake physics, and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings.Once trained, the AI provided its predictionby listening for signs of incoming earthquakes within the background rumblings (隆隆声) in the Earth.This work is clearly
28、 a milestone inresearch for AI-driven earthquake prediction. “You dont see earthquakes coming,” explains Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior research scientist who leads the Texas Seismological Network Program (TexNet). “Its a matter of milliseconds, and the only thing you can control is how prepared you
29、 are. Even with the 70%accuracy, thats a huge result and could help minimize economic and human losses and has the potential to remarkably improve earthquake preparation worldwide.”While it is unknown whether the same approach will work at other locations,the researchers are confident thattheir AI a
30、lgorithm could produce more accurate predictions if used in areas with reliable earthquaketracking networks.The next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, since UTs Bureau TexNet has 300 earthquakestations and over six yearsworth of continuous records, making it an ideal location for the
31、se purposes.Eventually, the authors hope to combinethe system with physics-based models. This strategy could prove especially important where data is pooror lacking. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, taken together, are what moves science forward,”concludesScott Tinker
32、, the bureaus director.28. How does the AI predict earthquakes?A. By identifying data from the satellites.B. By analyzing background sounds in the Earth.C. Bymodeling data based on earthquake recordings.D. By monitoring changes in the Earths magnetic field.29. What does Alexandros Savvaidisintend to
33、 show in paragraph3?A. The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes.B. The importance of preparing for earthquakes.C. The significance of developing the AI prediction.D. The limitation of AI algorithms in earthquakeprediction.30. What does the follow-up research focus on?A. Conducting tests in different
34、 locations.B. Applying the AI approach to other fields.C. Building more earthquake stations in Texas.D. Enlarging the database to train the calculation accuracy.31. Which words can best describe the earthquake-predictingtechnology?A. Stable but outdated.B. Effective but costly.C. Potential and econo
35、mical.D. Advancedand promising.DA recent global study, which surveyed 10,000 young people from 10 countries, showed that nearly 60 percent of them were extremely worried about the future state of the planet. The report also showed that nearly half of the respondents (受访者) said that such distress aff
36、ected them daily, and three-quarters agreed with the statement that “the future is frightening.” This, and many other studies, show clearly that climate change is not just a threat to the environment. It also poses a very real threat to our mental health.Psychologists have classified these feelings
37、of sadness, distress, and worry about the current climate emergency as eco-anxiety. According to the Climate Psychology Alliance, eco-anxiety is defined as the “intense physical and mental discomfort in response to dangerous changes in the climate system.” Eco-anxiety doesnt just affect young people
38、. It also affects researchers who work in climate and ecological science, burdened by the reality discovered in their findings, and it affects the poor people across the globe, who hopelessly bear the harmful impacts of climate breakdown.In recent years, weve seen wildfires tear through Canada and G
39、reece, and summer floods destroy regions in Pakistan that are home to nearly 33 million people. Studies have shown that those impacted by air pollution and rising temperatures are more likely to experience mental distress.The cause of this mental distress is absolutely external. According to Carolin
40、e Hickman, a researcher on eco-anxiety from the University of Bath, anyone experiencing these emotions is displaying entirely natural and rational reactions to the climate crisis. Her suggestion? Take eco-anxiety as a tool for goodas an emotion that can urge people to act in protection of our planet
41、.This is why, in 2024, we will also see more people around the world join the fight for climate justice and apply for jobs that seek sustainable development. Eco-anxiety is not something we will defeat with therapywe will solve it by taking action.32. What does the underlined word “distress” in para
42、graph1 mean?A. Shock.B. Anxiety.C. Fear.D. Anger.33. What is eco-anxiety according to the Climate Psychology Alliance?A. It is a strong reaction to the natural disasters.B. It is a kind of mental disease for the young people.C. It is a physical and mental discomfort when we meet difficulties.D. It i
43、s a strong physical and mental discomfort for the dangerous climate changes.34. What is mainly talked about in paragraph3?A. The process of eco-anxiety.B. The impact of eco-anxiety.C. The causes of eco-anxiety.D. The benefits of eco-anxiety.35. Whats the approach to solving eco-anxiety according to
44、Caroline Hickman?A. Defeat it with a therapy.B. Just wait for a good solution.C. Join the fight for climate justice.D. Use it to urge people to protect our earth.第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。On an Arctic island, an enormous vault(保险库)has been built deep underg
45、round. Like any bank vault, it holds treasures. _36_ This vault holds seeds from food crops around the world.The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is in Norway. It is a seed bank, a place to store and protect seeds. More than 800 thousand different seed samples rest here. All are dried and kept in temperat
46、ure- and moisture-controlled conditions. _37_Many nations have their own seed banks, too. One main purpose is to make sure that even if crops fail, there will still be seeds for farmers to plant._38_ Loss of diversity can cause problems. That was made clear in Ireland in the 1840s. People grew and a
47、te just one kind of potato, which had no defense when a disease struck. The potato crops failed, and one million people died as a result.Seeds hold information for scientists. _39_They might grow into plants that can resist pests and disease. They might grow where other plants cant. Even the seeds o
48、f an invasive plant like kudzu are saved in seed banks. Perhaps scientists will find out their use someday.A nation commonly has more than one seed bank. Still, a backup plan is a good idea. Floods, fires, war, and other disasters can destroy storehouses of precious seeds. _40_The seeds come from all over the world, and they belong to everyone, not just one nation.A. But you won
