4、thOur trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life-no computers or phones.

7、ns cycles（周期）. A full moon also affects peoples sleep more or less, reports a Swiss team of scientists. Even people who sleep in a lab without windows could reduce their sleeping time a little once a month.To test the moons influence, 33 adults of both sexes and ages of many kinds spent several nigh
8、ts in a sleep lab. As they slept, researchers recorded their brain activity, eye movements and hormone levels (荷尔蒙水平). On nights closer to a full moon, the sleepers took an average of five minutes longer to fall asleep, and slept for 20 minutes less. In addition, brain activity fell by 30 percent du
9、ring the sleep. And hormone levels that help control sleep cycles went down. On these nights, the sleepers complained they couldnt sleep well even though they didnt know the moons cycle. On the bright side, no sleeper turned into a werewolf.The Swiss team doesnt know how the moon affects sleep. The
10、gravity (重力) of the moon causes ocean tides（潮汐）to rise and fall. But that force is too weak to affect sleep, Gajochen says. He believed some bodys biological clock may be affected by the moon cycles. There may be another reason, says David Dinges. This sleep researcher at the University Of Pennsylva
11、nia in Philadelphia says that the body clock is very sensitive to light at night. Those sleepers could have been affected by having too much moonlight before arriving at the lab.4The writer mentioned “werewolves” in the first paragraph to _.A. show there are the moons cyclesB. attract peoples attent

15、periences.The survey of 1,000 people found that the current (现在的) generation of 15- to 34-year-olds have fewer memories of 12 key countryside activities such as swimming in rivers or going fishing.The research found that three quarters of the older generation remembered playing games or climbing tre
16、es, compared with two thirds of younger adults.The 55+ generation also had more memories of collecting stones, visiting a farm or pond dipping. Altogether, two thirds of older people had more memories of playing outdoors compared to just over half of the younger generation.The Royal Society for the
17、Protection of Birds (RSPB) carried out the study at the start of the school term to stress the growing worry that children are not getting outdoors enough.The study has found that 82 percent of people think that schools should provide more outdoor education and most believe nature is still important
18、 to children today.Dr. Mike Clarke, head of the RSPB, said children who are usually kept indoors are easier to get nature deficit disorder. He said public money should be used to take children on day trips to nature and to build wildlife gardens, especially in poor areas.To many people, it would see
19、m clear and unquestionable that an important part of childhood is exploring the world around you. Unfortunately, this is far from the fact and the children are having less time and fewer chances to get close to nature, he said.The RSPB has more than a 40-year history in getting children outdoors and
20、 is still continuing to play our role. We now need the government and the schools to realize that they should play the most important role in making it possible for all the children to experience, enjoy and benefit from the outdoor environment.8Compared with the current generation, the older generat
21、ion had _.A. more homework and exercises when they were childrenB. more memories of wonderful life in the countrysideC. fewer memories of taking part in outdoor activitiesD. fewer chances of going on a visit to the big cities9The RSPB carried out the study in order to tell people to _.A. spend more

24、nt and schools in getting kids outdoorsD. the RSPB plays an important role in getting kids outdoors all the time【D】Could your cellphone give you cancer? Whether it could or not, some people are worrying about the possibility that phones, power lines and Wi-Fi could be responsible for a range of illn
25、esses, from rashes to brain tumors.Some say there is evidence to support the growing anxieties. David Carpenter, a professor of environmental health sciences at the university at Albany, in New York, thinks theres a greater than 95 percent chance that power lines can cause childhood leukemia (白血病).
26、Also theres a greater than 90 percent chance that cellphones can cause brain tumors. “Its apparent now that theres a real risk,” said Carpenter.But others believe these concerns are unjustified. Dr. Martha Linet, the head of radiation epidemiology (流行病学) at the US National Cancer Institute, has look
27、ed at the same research as Carpenter but has reached a different conclusion. “I dont support warning labels for cellphones,” said Linet. “We dont have the evidence that theres much danger.”Studies so far suggest a weak connection between EMFs (电磁场) and illness so weak that it might not exist at all.
28、 A multinational investigation of cellphones and brain cancer, in 13 countries outside the US, has been underway for several years. Its funded in part by the European Union, in part by a cellphone industry group. The final report should come out later this year, but data so far dont suggest a strong

30、in tumors13By saying “I dont support warning labels for cellphones,” Dr. Martha Linet has the idea that _.A. the worrying is unnecessaryB. cancer-warning labels should be on cellphonesC. there is a link between cellphones and cancerD. cellphones have nothing to do with cancer14Which of the following
31、 best describes the attitude of the author towards the debate?A. Optimistic. B. Objective.C. Opposite. D. Casual.15Whats the best title of the passage?A. Cellphones: is there a cancer link?B.
