When we first gave our daughters (then 13 and 15 years old) cell phones for emergencies, we made them sign an agreement in which we strictly ruled where and when they could use their phones and even we could check their every text message. However, in less than a year, we lost control of the situation.
There is a terrible reality that almost every teenager sends between 50 to 100 messages a day - some as many as 300, and 70% of teenagers admit hiding their online behavior from parents. According to a study, teenagers need as much sleep or more than they get as children - that's between 9 and 10 hours of sleep a night, but only 20% of them are getting it. When they don't get enough sleep, they perform poorly in school, feel very hungry, are more likely to have flu and are very emotional.
Recently, we adopted a "check in at tuck in" (盖被子时交手机) rule at our house, an idea I learnt from a parenting expert. It is very simple. At bedtime, when we "tuck in" our children for the night, they must "check in" their phones. They will probably bargain like this:
"But I use it for my alarm clock."
"I'll wake you up."
"My friends might need me."
"If there is an emergency, they can call the fixed phone and I'll wake you up."
A few weeks ago, when I drove my younger daughter to a friend's house for a sleepover, she handed me her phone. "I guess I should check this in now, since you won't be there to tuck me in tonight. I'll call you from Ellie's phone if I need you."
1.The first paragraph that the writer writes is to______.
A. show the writer's family life
B. lead to the topic of the passage
C. advise to buy cell phones for children
D. introduce the writer's two daughters
2.The cell phones were bought for children in hope of_______.
A. controlling their online behavior
B. working hard through the Internet
C. replacing alarm clocks with cell phones
D. keeping in touch if something urgent happened
3.Which of the following is NOT caused by sleeping less?
A. Performing well in school.
B. Feeling very hungry.
C. Being easy to have flu.
D. Being very emotional.
4.Which is probably the best title for the passage?
A. How to Take Control of Children
B. How to Help Children Sleep Well at Night
C. How to Get Children off Cell Phones at Night
D. How to Assist Children with Cell Phones

The exact work of ancient astronomers has led to a modern observation --- our days are longer than they used to be. Not that you’d noticed: The new research in the Proceedings of the Royal Society A shows that it takes the Earth a tiny bit longer these days to complete a single rotation (转动) than it did millions of years ago. It’s the kind of stuff that’s measured in milliseconds per century, but those milliseconds add up. Over the last thousands of years, they’d totaled several hours, which the Los Angeles Times puts this way, “If humanity had been measuring time with an atomic clock that started running back in 700 BC, today that clock would read 7 p.m. when the sun is directly overhead rather than noon. The atomic clock won’t lose a second for 15 billion years.” Maybe more remarkable is that the work is the result of a tireless 40-year research into ancient timekeeping records dating back 2,700 years.
Scientists led by Richard Stephenson of the UK’s Durham University have been studying Babylonian clay tablets, Chinese observations made through the use of water clocks, and Arab astronomical records that tracked solar and lunar eclipses(日/月食). “The most astonishing thing about this study is the fact that we have this information at all,” said a geographer not involved in the study. Researchers are still hoping to find observations from the Incas and the Maya, and to fill in their largest hole between 200 and 600 AD, but they’ve measured the Earth’s deceleration at 1.8 milliseconds per day per century. Given the moon’s gravitational effect on our oceans, the discovery that Earth is decelerating isn’t a surprise, notes the Christian Science Monitor, though astronomers had previously estimated a higher rate.
1.Why are days longer than before according to the text?
A. The earth rotates more and more slowly.
B. Humanity has got incorrect timekeeping records.
C. It takes longer for the earth to turn around the sun.
D. The lost milliseconds for centuries are added to our present days.
2.How did researchers come to the conclusion of the study?
A. By resetting the rotating time of the earth.
B. By referring to ancient timekeeping records.
C. By studying the moon’s gravitational effect on the oceans.
D. By measuring time again with an atomic clock.
3.What can we infer about the study from what the geographer said?
A. Geography theory supports the result of the study.
B. The geographer disagrees to the research conclusion.
C. The scientists’ research is meaningless.
D. It’s right to get geographers involved in the study.
4.What is the meaning of the underlined word “deceleration” in Paragraph 2?
A. Evolution. B. Slowdown.
C. Enlargement. D. Development.
