Finally，you finish all your schoolwork and sit back in your chair.Suddenly you feel a headache and realize your eyes are painful.What's going on？Doctors say that many students are spending too much time in front of screens，especially during online classes.The following might be of some help to you.
THE 20﹣20﹣20 RULE
This gives your eyes a break from long screen time.It suggests looking at something at least 20 feet Away for 20 seconds after 20 minutes of work on the screen.You can then continue working pain free.
•Studies show that people blink （眨眼睛） less often when looking at a screen.Keep your eyes wet by blinking often or using eye drops.
•Sit up straight about an arm's length（长度） away from the screen. Make sure you're looking down at your screen.Stand up and exercise often to avoid neck and shoulder pain.
•What about blue light blocking glasses（防蓝光眼镜）？They may look cool，but research shows that blue light isn't the biggest cause of eye tiredness.So ask doctors about computer glasses before putting them on.

12．（10分）The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is one of the great works by Mark Twain.The book is so interesting.Even today，it is quite popular among kids.Although I am in my thirties，the book remains one of my favorites.After re﹣reading the book recently，I have learned an important lesson from Tom Sawyer.
In our daily lives，we are often given some boring or tiring tasks.What's in your mind when your mom tells you to clean the floor？Have you ever wanted to complain（抱怨）？I think most people have.
Tom Sawyer，however，thought "differently" when he was given a boring task.One Saturday morning，Aunt Polly told Tom to paint the fence（篱笆）.Tom's friend Ben Rogers happened to walk past.Instead of complaining，Tom told Ben that he felt "excited" about the task."Only one in a thousand﹣﹣maybe even two thousand﹣﹣boys can do this!"Tom said.
Tom's words made Ben interested in the task.He even gave Tom his apple so that he could have a chance to paint the fence.If Tom had thought about nothing but complaining，he would have had a bad day painting the fence.
This story teaches me a valuable lesson：Complaining is useless.The next time you are given a boring or tiring task，don't complain.Unlike what happens in the story of Tom Sawyer，it is unlikely that someone will come and do the work for you.However，without complaining，you'll feel better and perhaps even do a better job!
（1）Who is the writer of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer？
A.Aunt Polly.
B.Mark Twain.
C.Ben Rogers.
（2）According to the writer，what is most people's immediate reaction（即时反应）to a boring task？
A.Complaining about it.
B.Accepting it.
C.Refusing it.
（3）What did Aunt Polly ask Tom to do in this text？
A.Visit Ben.
B.Clean the floor.
C.Paint the fence.
（4）Why did Tom say the underlined sentence to Ben in Paragraph 3？
A.To express his sadness.
B.To catch Ben's interest.
C.To show his anger.
（5）What does the writer learn from Tom Sawyer？
A.It is no use complaining.
B.Refusing is the best choice.
C.Waiting is the only way out.
13．（10分）Dealing with Stress
Everybody gets stressed from time to time. （1）
Some ways of dealing with stress—like screaming，crying or hitting a wall—don't solve much.But other ways，like talking to someone you trust，can start you on the road to solving your problem or at least feeling better.
Try taking these steps the next time you are stressed：
• Let your feelings go wild when you're upset.Firstly，notice your feelings，and name them—for example， "I am so angry!"And say or think about why you feel that way.（2）
• Take your stress out on yourselves.But that's not a good idea.Remember that there are always people to help you.Be kind to yourself and ask for a helping hand or a pat on the back that you need.
• Get support from adults and friends.It's time to start business.（3） Even if you can't solve it，maybe you can begin by solving a piece of it.
•（4） It may not seem like it when you're under stress，but stress does go away，often when you know the problem and start working on solving it.
These steps aren't magic—and you might have to do some steps more than once，but they do work （起作用）.And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a hard time，you'll help yourself feel better and even stress will go faster.（5）
A.And it feels so good when stress is gone.
B.Make sure stress is temporary （暂时的）.
C.Different people feel stress in different ways.
D.You need to find out what the problem is.
E.Then，find a way to calm down and forget bad feelings.

12．（10分）The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is one of the great works by Mark Twain.The book is so interesting.Even today，it is quite popular among kids.Although I am in my thirties，the book remains one of my favorites.After re﹣reading the book recently，I have learned an important lesson from Tom Sawyer.
In our daily lives，we are often given some boring or tiring tasks.What's in your mind when your mom tells you to clean the floor？Have you ever wanted to complain（抱怨）？I think most people have.
Tom Sawyer，however，thought "differently" when he was given a boring task.One Saturday morning，Aunt Polly told Tom to paint the fence（篱笆）.Tom's friend Ben Rogers happened to walk past.Instead of complaining，Tom told Ben that he felt "excited" about the task."Only one in a thousand﹣﹣maybe even two thousand﹣﹣boys can do this!"Tom said.
Tom's words made Ben interested in the task.He even gave Tom his apple so that he could have a chance to paint the fence.If Tom had thought about nothing but complaining，he would have had a bad day painting the fence.
This story teaches me a valuable lesson：Complaining is useless.The next time you are given a boring or tiring task，don't complain.Unlike what happens in the story of Tom Sawyer，it is unlikely that someone will come and do the work for you.However，without complaining，you'll feel better and perhaps even do a better job!
（1）Who is the writer of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer？
A.Aunt Polly.
B.Mark Twain.
C.Ben Rogers.
（2）According to the writer，what is most people's immediate reaction（即时反应）to a boring task？
A.Complaining about it.
B.Accepting it.
C.Refusing it.
（3）What did Aunt Polly ask Tom to do in this text？
A.Visit Ben.
B.Clean the floor.
C.Paint the fence.
（4）Why did Tom say the underlined sentence to Ben in Paragraph 3？
A.To express his sadness.
B.To catch Ben's interest.
C.To show his anger.
（5）What does the writer learn from Tom Sawyer？
A.It is no use complaining.
B.Refusing is the best choice.
C.Waiting is the only way out.
13．（10分）Dealing with Stress
Everybody gets stressed from time to time. （1）
Some ways of dealing with stress—like screaming，crying or hitting a wall—don't solve much.But other ways，like talking to someone you trust，can start you on the road to solving your problem or at least feeling better.
Try taking these steps the next time you are stressed：
• Let your feelings go wild when you're upset.Firstly，notice your feelings，and name them—for example， "I am so angry!"And say or think about why you feel that way.（2）
• Take your stress out on yourselves.But that's not a good idea.Remember that there are always people to help you.Be kind to yourself and ask for a helping hand or a pat on the back that you need.
• Get support from adults and friends.It's time to start business.（3） Even if you can't solve it，maybe you can begin by solving a piece of it.
•（4） It may not seem like it when you're under stress，but stress does go away，often when you know the problem and start working on solving it.
These steps aren't magic—and you might have to do some steps more than once，but they do work （起作用）.And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a hard time，you'll help yourself feel better and even stress will go faster.（5）
A.And it feels so good when stress is gone.
B.Make sure stress is temporary （暂时的）.
C.Different people feel stress in different ways.
D.You need to find out what the problem is.
E.Then，find a way to calm down and forget bad feelings.

13．（10分）Dealing with Stress
Everybody gets stressed from time to time. （1） C
Some ways of dealing with stress—like screaming，crying or hitting a wall—don't solve much.But other ways，like talking to someone you trust，can start you on the road to solving your problem or at least feeling better.
Try taking these steps the next time you are stressed：
• Let your feelings go wild when you're upset.Firstly，notice your feelings，and name them—for example， "I am so angry!"And say or think about why you feel that way.（2） E
• Take your stress out on yourselves.But that's not a good idea.Remember that there are always people to help you.Be kind to yourself and ask for a helping hand or a pat on the back that you need.
• Get support from adults and friends.It's time to start business.（3） D Even if you can't solve it，maybe you can begin by solving a piece of it.
•（4） B It may not seem like it when you're under stress，but stress does go away，often when you know the problem and start working on solving it.
These steps aren't magic—and you might have to do some steps more than once，but they do work （起作用）.And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a hard time，you'll help yourself feel better and even stress will go faster.（5） A
A.And it feels so good when stress is gone.
B.Make sure stress is temporary （暂时的）.
C.Different people feel stress in different ways.
D.You need to find out what the problem is.
E.Then，find a way to calm down and forget bad feelings.
