Smartphones do make our lives easier. But have you ever thought about what they mean to our eyes?‎ ‎ According to a study, half of British people own smartphones and they spend an average of two hours a day using them. There has been a 35% increase in the number of people in the UK who suffer from shortsightedness since smartphones were introduced there in 1997.‎ ‎ Staring at smartphones for long time gives you dry eyes. When looking at something in the distance, your eyes automatically blink(自动眨眼) a certain number of times. However, when you look at things closer to your eyes, the blinking slows down. This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort in your eyes. Another bad habit is using smartphones in dark rooms before going to sleep. If you look at a bright screen while your pupils(瞳孔) become larger, too much light enters your eyes. This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma(青光眼).‎ ‎ While you’re probably not going to stop using your smartphone, there are a few things you can do to protect your eyes. Hold your phone at least 30 centimeters away from your eyes when using it. Take a break every hour and try the following: look at something at least five meters away from you and then focus on the tips of your nose. Repeat this several times. It should reduce the discomfort in your eyes.‎ ‎52. The article is mainly about ________________.‎ A. the rules to obey when using smartphones B. the harm that smartphones do to users’ eyes C. the reason why teenagers get shortsightedness D. advantages and disadvantages of smartphones ‎53.

According to Paragraph 3, using smartphones improperly may cause____________.‎ A. too many blinks B. more tears in the eyes C. smaller pupils D. dry eyes and glaucoma ‎55. Which of the following is suggested by the writer?‎ A. Don’t use the phone for over an hour without a break.‎ B. Hold the phone at least half a meter away from the eyes.‎ C. Turn off your phone for a couple of hours every day.‎ D. Look at something green far away for several minutes.‎ ‎56.

Almost everyone agrees that good neighbours can help each other. In my opinion, a good neighbour should be someone who respects your life, be ready to help you and care about the environment in the neighbourhood.‎ ‎ First of all, it is very important for your neighbour to respect your life. Just imagines, if your neighbour is curious about you, especially your personal life and tries to know more about it by any way. How will you feel? What’s more, he or she may also talk with others about your life. Do you want to live with him or her any more? The answer must be negative. You may move as soon as you can.‎ ‎ Next, what you should consider is that a good neighbour is always willing to give you a hand when you are in trouble. For example, if you are not at home and someone suspect tries to open your door, your neighbour who sees it should call 110. It will help you to protect your property.‎ ‎ Finally, a good neighbour should care about the environment. He or she should throw all the rubbish ‎ into dustbin and keep the place clean because a good environment can make people who live in it relaxed all the time.‎ Title: 59 to be a good neighbour Almost everyone agrees that it is helpful to live with some good neighbours.‎ First of all Your neighbour should realize the   60 of respect your life.‎ ‎ 61 ‎ When you need him or her, your neighbour is always willing to give you a hand.‎ Finally A good neighbour should care about the environment because living in such a clean ‎ Place is 62 .‎ 第三部分 书面表达(20分)‎ ‎ 汤姆几天前在一家商店购得一台电视机，但是当他回家打开电视发现电视不能正常播放，遂与营业员交涉。但该营业员对他态度粗暴，不予受理，汤姆为此向经理写一封投诉信,希望他能调查此事并回复。（字数100字左右）将答案写在答题卡上对应处。‎ Dear Manager,‎ I am sorry, but I have to complain about one of your shop assistants. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ Thank you for your consideration and I am expecting an early reply.                                                       ‎ Yours sincerely, Tom
