As it is often the case, when people are attending meetings, having meals or waiting for buses, you can always find them addicting to their phones, completely ignoring others.
This is really a common phenomena in our life. The reason is why smart phones nowadays can be used for people to play mobile games and kept in touch with friends through QQ and WeChat. Therefore, too much exposure to phones are bad for people in terms of health. Moreover, people involved in phones fail to communicate well with these around them.
As far as I am concerned, people should wisely make use of their phones to help their work and study. Meanwhile, care much about their family and friends rather than mobile phones.
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
A triathlon(三项全能运动) is a sports event which combines three sports,1. (typical) running, biking, and swimming. During a triathlon, athletes finish all three sports without stopping 2. (beat) the clock. People of all ages and sizes can compete in triathlons. But much like other sports events, a lot of professional 3. (compete) rule the triathlon world. In addition, many triathlon 4. (hold) to benefit charity, much like marathons.
The modern triathlon appeared in California in 5. 1970s. It usually begins with the swimming, 6. (follow) by cycling, and finally running. A triathlon tests the endurance(忍耐力) and speed of an athlete, as well as his or her ability to keep energy and focus 7. the race as a whole. A triathlon competes against a clock, rather than against other athletes. A variation of the triathlon is a relay triathlon, 8. a different athlete completes each stage.
The swimming stage takes place in a lake or the open ocean. As soon as athletes come out from the water, they change into cycling at the 9. (fast) speed to save time. After cycling, the athletes change shoes to run. The course is considered complete once the athletes 10. (cross) the finish line.

I told him we would find him a _______.
It wasn't a long time before I found that this old man had a_______heart in that tiny body. He fished for a living to_______his daughter, his daughter's children, and her disabled husband.

Homework
Do maths problems 15 through 25. State the different forms of the verbs on page 50 of your French workbook. Read pages 12 through 20 of the Shakespeare play, and don’t forget to fill in the missing chemical symbols on the worksheet.
Sound like a list of your homework for the next few nights — or maybe even just for tonight? 1.It’s your teachers’ way of evaluating how much you understand what’s going on in class. And it helps strengthen important concepts. Here are some tips on how to do your homework.
2.It’s inviting to start with the easy things to get them out of the way. However, you’ll have the most energy and focus when you begin, so it’s best to use this mental power on the subjects that are most challenging. Later, when you’re more tired, you can focus on the simpler things. If you get stuck on a problem, try to figure it out as well as you can — but don’t spend too much time on it because this can mess up your homework schedule for the rest of the night. 3.But don’t pick someone whom you’ll be up all night chatting with, or you’ll never get it done!
Most people’s attention spans aren’t very long, so take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you less productive than if you stop every so often. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most people.4.
Once your homework is done, you can check over it if you have extra time. Be sure to put it safely away in your backpack—there’s nothing worse than having a completed assignment that you can’t find the next morning or that gets ruined by a careless brother or sister. 5.Now you’re free to hang out.A. Luckily, you can do a few things to do less homework.
B. Homework is a major part of going to school.C. No one is expected to stay long, and people have very different learning styles.
D. If you need to, ask an adult for help or call or email a classmate for advice.
E. But if you’re really concentrating, wait until it's a good time to stop.F. And no teacher still believes that “chewed by the dog” line—even when it's true!
G. When you start your homework, deal with the hardest tasks first.
The splendid aurora light displays that appear in Earth’s atmosphere around the north and south magnetic(磁的) poles were once mysterious phenomena. Now, scientists have data from satellites and ground-based observations from which we know that the aurora brilliance is a massive electrical discharge similar to that occurring in a neon sign.
To understand the cause of auroras, first picture the Earth enclosed by its magnetosphere(磁层), a huge region created by the Earth’s magnetic field. Outside the magnetosphere, rushing toward the earth is the solar wind, a speedily moving body of ionized(离子化的) gases with its own magnetic field. Charged particles(粒子) in this solar wind speed earthward along the solar wind’s magnetic lines of force. The Earth’s magnetosphere is a barrier to the solar winds, and forces the charged particles of the solar wind to flow around the magnetosphere itself. But in the polar regions, the magnetic lines of force of the Earth and of the solar wind gather together. Here many of the solar wind’s charged particles break through the magnetosphere and enter Earth’s magnetic field. They then rush back and forth between the Earth’s magnetic poles very rapidly and ionize and excite the atoms of the upper atmosphere of the Earth, causing them to produce aurora radiations of visible light.
The colors of an aurora depend on the atoms producing them. The leading greenish-white light comes from low energy excitation of oxygen atoms. During huge magnetic storms oxygen atoms also undergo high energy excitation and produce pink light. Excited nitrogen(氮) atoms contribute bands of color varying from blue to violet. Viewed from outer space, auroras can be seen as dimly shining belts wrapped around each of the Earth’s magnetic poles. Each aurora hangs like a curtain of light stretching over the polar regions and into the higher latitudes. When the solar flares(闪光) that result in magnetic storms and aurora activity are very strong, aurora displays may extend as far as the southern regions of the United States.
1.What is it that directly gives off aurora light?
A. The Earth’s magnetic field.
B. The solar wind’s magnetic field.
C. The Earth’s ionized particles.
D. The solar wind’s charged particles.
2.What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?
A. The appearance of auroras around the Earth’s poles.
B. The periodic change in the display of auroras.
C. The factors that cause the variety of colors in auroras.
D. The covering area of auroras based on their colors.
3.What can we infer from the passage?
A. The magnetosphere increases the speed of particles from the solar wind.
B. The color of greenish-white appears least frequently in an aurora display.
C. Earth’s magnetic field contributes to the variety and difference of aurora’s colors.
D. The strength of the solar flares has a positive effect on the extending distance of aurora.
