The daughter f a rmantic pet and ccasinal freedm fighter, Ada Lvelace had a famus but absent father. She never knew Lrd Byrn, as just weeks after her birth in 1815, he divrced her mther Isabella Milbanke Byrn and left t fight in the Greek War f Independence. In an effrt t prevent Ada frm develping her father’s unpredictable temper, Isabella decided that her daughter shuld devte her life t study.
Ada studied hard despite the fact that sciety did nt encurage wmen pursuing interests in science. Her life changed when she met inventr Charles Babbage at a party. As he demnstrated a wrking sectin f his mechanical calculatr, Ada was taken in by hw it wrked and wanted t knw mre. Impressed by the 17-year-ld’s bvius passin, Babbage became her tutr. Ada married in 1835 and became a mther, but she cntinued t take an active interest in study, scialising in intellectual circles with the likes f Charles Dickens and Michael Faraday.
Ada stayed in cntact with Babbage, wh in 1837 had prpsed a new machine, the analytical engine. In 1843, Ada was asked t translate a French text written by engineer Luigi Menabrea abut Babbage’s new design. After cmpleting the translatin, Ada was encuraged by Babbage t write her wn ntes n his wrk.
After nine mnths f hard wrk, Ada presented Babbage with a detailed list f ntes that was three times lnger than the riginal article. In her calculatins, Ada wrte what are cnsidered the first ever cmputer algrithms t be used in a new type f machine. She essentially prvided the first ideas fr cmputer prgramming in what was a grundbreaking prpsal n the ptential f cmputers.
Ada died f cancer aged nly 36 and her wrk was largely recgnised until the 1950s when her ntes were republished. In 1979 the US Department f Defence named a prgramming language ‘Ada’ in her hnur.
24. What can we learn abut Ada frm the first paragraph?
A. She had a devted father. B. Her mther raised her up alne.
C. She had an unpredictable temper. D. Her parents divrced befre her birth.
25. Wh arused her interest in mathematics and cmputer engineering?

27. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?

Jasn, a straight-A student frm the University f Pennsylvania, uses the term “pseud-wrking” t describe hw many f us study. The pseud-wrker lks and feels like smene wh is wrking hard — he r she spends a lng time in the library and is nt afraid t push n late int the night — but, because f a lack f fcus and cncentratin, he r she’s desn’t actually accmplish much.
This phenmenn can be seen n mst cllege campuses. Fr example, at Dartmuth there was a sectin f the main library that was pen twenty-fur hurs a day, and the students I used t see there late at night crwded in grups, drinking cffee, were definitely pseud-wrking. The rmmate wh flips thrugh her chemistry ntes n the cuch while watching TV is pseud-wrking.
By placing themselves in distracting envirnments and insisting n wrking lng hurs, these students are damaging their brain’s ability t think clearly and efficiently accmplish the task at hand. In the end they get half the results with twice the effrt.
The bigger prblem here is that mst students dn’t even realize that they’re pseud-wrking. T them pseud-wrking is wrk — it’s hw they’ve always dne it, and it’s hw all f their friends d it. It never crsses their mind that there might be a better way. Straight-A students, n the ther hand, knw all abut pseud-wrking. They fear it. It nt nly wastes time, but it’s als mentally tiring.
In fact, the mst imprtant skill in becming a straight-A student is the ability t get wrk dne quickly and with a minimum f wasted effrt. Sme cgnitive science research cncludes that abut fifty minutes is the ptimal learning perid t maximize the material integrated per time unit. S hw d these students achieve this gal? T understand their secret t success, cnsider the fllwing simple frmula (公式): wrk accmplished = time spent × intensity f fcus
Pseud-wrking features a very lw intensity f fcus. Therefre, t accmplish smething by pseud-wrking, yu need t spend a lt f time. The straight-A apprach n the ther hand, increases intensity in rder t use less time.
28. Which f the fllwing phenmenn is pseud-wrking?
A Tm is busy taking ntes while attending a lecture.
B. Mike is sitting at a study lunge in preparatin fr a final exam quietly.
C. Jack spends a lng time in the library n his essay while listening t music.
D. Alice and Sara are sitting n the cuch reading their favrite bks.
29. Cmpared with straight-A students, the majr prblem f mst students is that they ______.
A. want t spend mre time n study B. are eager t fllw their friends’ way
C. have gt used t their study apprachD. are unaware f their pseud-wrking
30. What des the underlined wrd “ptimal” mean in paragraph 5?
A. Pssible. B. Best. C. Least. D. Accurate.
31. What des the authr want t stress by mentining the frmula?
A. The length f time n study cunts.
B. Cncentratin plays a key rle in study.
C. Getting wrk dne quickly means everything.
D. Effective study apprach is very imprtant.
D
The sales pitches tempt: Blue-light-blcking glasses are suppsed t prtect eyes frm the effects f shrt-wavelength light emitting frm ur smartphnes, cmputer screens and LED lights. Given hw much time we spend n ur devices, this sunds like a smart investment, right? After all, eye strain is a real issue and can lead t pr sleep and even eye diseases. The glasses can cst $15 all the way up t several hundred dllars. But d they wrk?
Elizabeth Esparaz, an phthalmlgist (眼科专家) based in Cleveland, Ohi, says the science that manufacturers share as they prmte these glasses can be cnfusing. Fr starters, blue light is nt just abut tech devices, and it’s nt always bad. “The sun emits a much higher intensity f blue light than human-made devices, f curse, and it’s actually beneficial,” says Dr. Esparaz. It helps ur md, alertness and sleep-wake cycle.
The prblem is blue light at night: It cntains the release f melatnin. “Melatnin helps regulate ur circadian rhythms (生理节奏) and makes us sleepy,” says Dr. Esparaz.
S, in thery, wearing blue-light-blcking glasses shuld help peple wh watch mvies in bed r read frm a tablet at night avid sleeplessness. A 2021 review study frm the University f Oklahma that lked at 24 previus studies fund that peple affected by sleep disrders, jet lag and shift wrk fell asleep faster after using these glasses.
As fr eye strain, a 2021 Australian study shwed that thse wearing the glasses did nt experience less eye strain than thse using clear glasses. And a 2018 review study, als by Australian researchers, fund insufficient evidence that they prevent certain eye diseases.
“These glasses aren’t ging t be harmful,” says Dr. Esparaz, But, she adds, a lack f standardizatin in the industry means there’s n way t knw if ne pair is better than anther. A mre reliable slutin: Turn n the blue-light-filtering functin n yur devices and limit screen time befre bed. T help with eye strain, Dr. Esparaz suggests taking breaks and using lubricating eye drps.
32. What is Dr. Esparaz’s attitude tward business publicity?
A. Unclear. B. indifferent. C. Apprving. D. Dubtful.
33. What can we learn abut blue light frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. It can be beneficial. B. It may facilitate sleep.
C. It actually causes health issues.D. It merely cmes frm digital devices.
34. Australian studies fund that wearing blue-light-blcking glasses_________.
A. helps prevent eye diseaseB. are nt harmful t eyesight
C. cntributes t n less eye strainD. benefits thse with sleep disrders
35. What might be the best title f this passage?
A. Blue-light-blcking Glasses: Yur Best Chice
B. Blue-light-blcking Glasses: Gd r Bad
C. Blue-light-blcking Glasses: A Gd Business
D. Blue-light-blcking Glasses: Smart and Cl
