He now believes the social networking service with saving his life. The 28－year－old was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy(肌肉萎缩症) nine years ago and has relied on a wheelchair ever since.‎ On July 15，2015，Thomas was getting ready for bed in his apartment，when a shelving(架子) fell onto his wheelchair and knocked him over，causing him to fall and hit the back of his head. After waking up from a few minutes of coma(昏迷)，he realized he couldn't reach the string used to get the doorkeeper's attention.‎ His phone was nearby and had the Facebook application conveniently open，so he posted a status update that immediately got his friends worried—even some he hadn't spoken to in years. “It was amazing，friends from six different states who didn't know each other were connecting with each other to get me help，” Thomas said. “Now that's the power of social media! You have hundreds of people at your ‎ fingertips.”‎ Eight minutes after the status went up，an old friend，Leah，got in contact with Thomas' friend Brad，whose wife was in the neighborhood，and before you knew it there were 12 Facebook friends in his apartment，who took him to the hospital at once. They showed up to the rescue at the perfect time. Minutes before they arrived，Thomas thought he was going to have a panic attack，which he often suffers from because of his illness，but he's doing better now.‎ ‎“It felt good to know that my friends，even those I haven't spoken to in the past，came to save me，” Thomas said. “They all came together .I would've never imagined it.”‎ ‎24．What did Chris Thomas do with Facebook in the past?‎ ‎ A．To sell his products online.

B．He was hit by a a shelving.‎ ‎ C．He fell off a shelving. D．He fell to the ground.‎ ‎26．What did Chris Thomas do to cause his friends' attention?‎ ‎ A．He shouted loudly. B．He telephoned them.‎ ‎ C．He posted a status update. D．He hit the door heavily.‎ ‎27．When seeing the status update，Chris Thomas' Facebook friends ________．‎ ‎ A．connected with each other to offer help B．came to his apartment at once ‎ ‎ C．gave him some practical advice D．took him to hospital immediately C Feifei,an 11-year-old boy from Xuzhou‎, ‎Jiangsu Province, suffered from a sudden acute eye disease which has almost led to blindness. The disease was caused by excessive（过度的）eye fatigue（疲劳）during the winter vacation, during which he played computer games for continuous 10 days and nights.‎ Many youngsters in China nowadays are increasingly addicted to computer games and other electronic products. This is followed by a series of health problems, with the most typical case being myopia, or nearsightedness.‎ According to the latest research report released by the World Health Organization (WHO),the myopia rate among Chinese teenagers ranks first in the world—70 percent of high school and college students. The rate is nearly 40 percent in primary school students, while it is only 10 percent for their peers in the ‎ United States‎.‎ There are at least 10 million people in China with severe myopia, and they are likely to get pathological（病理性的）myopia in middle age. Pathological myopia can't be treated with glasses or surgery, and it is one of the biggest factors that lead to blindness, Xu Xun, director of the ophthalmology（眼科学）department at Shanghai General Hospital, pointed out.‎ Experts explain that two major factors lead to the high rate of myopia among Chinese people. One is high academic pressure, and the other one is excessive use of electronic devices over a long period of time .Genetics, on the other hand, are not the main reason, as only 20 percent of Chinese people had myopia in the 1960s.‎ ‎"Teenagers are now faced with severe academic pressure, which means they often study without natural light. This increases their risk of becoming nearsighted," Xu said.‎ Experts suggest that youngsters maintain a proper balance between study and rest so as to protect their eyesight, and parents should play an active role in the process.‎ ‎28. Why does the author mention Feifei's experience in the first paragraph?‎ A. To advise people to protect their eyes.‎ B. To introduce the topic of nearsightedness.‎ C. To inform people of the cause of blindness.‎ D. To show that Feifei developed an eye disease.‎ ‎29. What can be learnt from the passage?‎ A. Nearsightedness may cause other health problems.‎ B. There are more nearsighted students in the United States.‎ C. Pathological myopia is most likely to cause blindness D. 70 percent Chinese students in primary school are nearsighted..‎ ‎30. Which of the following can be a main reason for myopia?‎ A. Genetics factors. B. Low academic pressure.‎ C. Reading in natural light D. Overuse of electronic devices..‎ ‎31. What will be probably discussed in the following paragraph?‎ A. The significance of protecting eyesight.‎ B. Parents’ role in helping youngsters protect their eyesight.‎ C. The relationship between youngsters and their parents.‎ D. Youngsters’ bad behavior leading to myopia.‎ D Tyler Skiuzacek’s father，Patrick，could not sleep through the night．It was 2007，and Patrick had just returned from a year in Iraq，where he served in the U．S．Army．Patrick Skluzacek was energetic and happy when he left for Iraq，Tyler says．But when he returned，he was unhappy and drinking alcohol too much．It turned out Patrick was suffering from sleep panic attacks．Patrick would wake up every night．His heart would beat too fast．He would sweat．The nighttime panic attacks prevented Patrick from feeling good the next day，because he was so tired．‎ Almost 10 years later，Tyler was in a position to help his father．He thought he could make a computer program that might help his father．So he entered a competition in Washington，D．C，trying to solve the problem Tyler’s father and other U．S．war veterans(老兵)，were having．People called them “night terrors.”The students had 36 hours to come up with a program．They called it myBivy．That name comes from bivouac，a military term for a safe place to sleep．‎ The application uses a smart watch and a smart phone together．The watch tracks the wearer’s heartbeat．It sends the data to the program on the smart phone．Research shows that a person’s heart rate will increase right before a night terror．So if the wearer’s heartbeat started to rise，myBivy would respond．The smart watch would vibrate(振动)and gently wake up the sleeping person．That was enough to prevent a night terror from happening．‎ Patrick wore the watch for two weeks to get used to it．Then，Tyler turned on the application．On the first night，the vibrations from the watch prevented 10 nightmares．Patrick said he had not slept that well in many years．Tyler and his team won the contest in Washington，D．C．The prize was $1，500．Then the group tried to raise more money from investors，and they were surprised when they took in over$25，000．By the spring of 2016，Tyler and his team were testing the app with volunteers，and hoped to make it availab1e to the public soon． ‎ ‎32．What might be the cause of Patrick’s problem?‎ A．His experience in the war． B．His drinking habit．‎ C．His family troubles． D．His sleeping disorder．‎ ‎33．We can learn from the second paragraph that______．‎ A．the US government tries to help war veterans B．people look down upon the night terrors C．many other veterans suffer similar problems D．myBivy was named after a great soldier ‎34．What is the main idea of the third paragraph?‎ A．How effective the app is． B．How to download the app．‎ C．How to design the app． D．How the app works．‎ ‎35．What does the author probably think of the future of myBivy?‎ A．Valueless． B．Promising． C．Tough． D．Doubtful.‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容从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。请把36--40的答案依次涂在答题卡71--75相应位置。‎ ‎ Every person wants to achieve the goals set at the beginning of a new school year.
