Unslved Mysteries Abut the Earth
◆Mystery 1: Where did all the water cme frm?
Water cvers 70 percent f the earth’s surface and earns it the nickname “the blue planet”. And where did it cme frm? The mst ppular scientific thery states that the H2O arrived in the frm f several vilent asterids (小行星)filled with ice.

I wke t the sund f birds utside my windw and lay in bed, ging ver the busy day ahead f me. Finally, I gt up and attempted t switch n the light — nthing happened. I checked my phne. N Wi-Fi, n data. With ur unstable cell service, there was n way f knwing if we had received alerts fbr a pwer failure. I grabbed a sweater, went dwnstairs, fund a flashlight and a match t light the gas stve, and then biled water t brew cffee. Outside the windw, the falling snw bscured (遮蔽) the sunrise. Deep piles f snw cvered the rad.
My wrk meetings and deadlines, my sns’ classes and tests, my husband’s plans — everything wuld have t wait. Why des this happen tday f all days?“ I asked. Thankfully, the wd stve was still ging strng. I tk a deep breath. I suppsed we had everything we needed.
The huse was quiet as I sipped my cffee and cuddled (搂抱) ur dg. One by ne, my husband and sns came dwnstairs and cmplained abut the turn the day had taken.
I pened the curtains t let light in. We gathered arund the table and had cereal. After breakfast, my husband played a game f slitaire. Then my sns jined him in building a huse f cards that reached three levels until ur cat jumped up t investigate and kncked it dwn. We played a rund f Scrabble and had my favrite snw day lunch: grilled cheese and tmat sup.
Then we tk a lng walk in the wds behind ur huse, walking alng the stream. We sptted deer tracks and played in the snw that was cming dwn in big fluffy flakes. When we returned, all the clcks in the huse were blinking. I started t make dinner, happy t have things back t nrmal — even better than nrmal.
It was a day that began withut electricity, cut ff frm the rest f the wrld, and ended with ht chclate and pwer restred. We were recharged by the unexpected gift f a day tgether.
4. What did the authr find when she wke up?
A. Heavy snw trapped the family in the huse.
B. The electricity supply had been cut ff.
C It was still early fr breakfast.
D. Her phne wuldn’t be turned n.
5. What was the direct impact f the pwer cut n the authr’s family?
A. Their arrangements were upset.
B. They had t serve themselves with simple meals.
C. The family encuntered a shrtage f supplies.
D. Everyne was angry abut this unexpected event.
6. Why did the authr describe their family activities n that day?

B. T present the daily life f the family.
C. T shw the clse family relatinship.
D. T create a lighthearted atmsphere.
7. What did that day mean t the authr?

Want t knw what is cming sn t a cinema near yu? Prbably nt a 1.5-hur-lng mvie, as in the ld days. On Octber 20th cmes Killers f the Flwer Mn. At nearly three and a half hurs, its length is nearly duble that f the average film last year. Even mvie fans struggle t cncentrate fr that lng and sme viewers even nd ff. Afterwards there is a mad dash fr the tilets. When des watching a film becme such a slg?
The Ecnmist analyzed ver 100,000 feature films released internatinally since the 1930s, the start f Hllywd’s glden age, using data frm IMDb, a mvie database. The average length f prductins rse by arund 24%, frm ne hur and 21 minutes in the 1930s t ne hur and 47 minutes in 2022. Fr the ten mst-ppular titles, the average length grew t arund tw and a half hurs in 2022, nearly 50% higher than in the 1930s.
One driver f this trend is that studis want t squeeze the mst ut f their cstly intellectual prperty (知识产权), but they are cmpeting with streaming platfrms fr eyeballs. The hpe is that a spectacular, drawn-ut “event” mvie will draw audiences away frm the small screen and int cinemas. This apprach has ften paid ff: Avengers: Endgame Marvel’s three-hur superher masterpieces, was the highest-grssing (票房最高的) film in 2019. Last year lng mvies series made up mst f the highest-grssing films in America.
Anther explanatin fr lnger films has t d with directrs’ grwing influence. Wh wuld dare tell the likes f Mr. Nlan t cut ut his masterpieces? Mrever, streaming platfrms, which d nt have t wrry as much abut the length because viewers can pause whenever they like, may attract big names by prmising them sufficient fund and creative freedm. Netflix funded and released three-hur The Irishman in 2019, a film that wuld have benefited frm a decisive editr, Irish r therwise.
8. The underlined part “a slg” in paragraph 1 refers t a(n)___.
A. pleasureB. effrtC. cnflictD. feast
9. What can be inferred frm paragraph 2?
A. The average length affects the ppularity f films.
B. Great advances have been made in film industry.
C. Hllywd starts a glden age f feature films.
D. The average duratin f mvies has stretched.
10. What sets the trend f lnger mvies?
A. Cmpetitin fr the target audience.B. Thirst fr mre classic prductins.
C. Influence f streaming platfrms.D. Preference fr decisive editrs.
11. What is prbably the best title fr the passage?
A. Mvie EnthusiastsB. Mvie Marathns
C. Mvie PrductinD. Mvie Influence
D
Tracking daily steps can mtivate us t walk mre. Tracking sleep can reveal sleep patterns and help imprve them. Can tracking ur mds make us happier?
There are nw many tech ways t lg (记录) yur emtins each day. Fitbit ffers md lgging in its stress-management tl. Apps like Dayli fcus n md. The latest big player t enter the cmpetitin is Apple. Its latest sftware updates include a way t lg yur state f mind.
Why lg yur md? Many mental-health prfessinals say simply being aware f yur mental state can identify patterns and imprve well-being. When peple can see assciatins between their mds and factrs like sleep and exercise, these dctrs say, it can be even mre pwerful.

On the Apple Watch, it’s in the Mindfulness app. Apple device users wh track their mds will be able t share the lg with their dctrs. (Apple says it desn’t share Health app data with third parties withut the user’s permissin.)
“When peple keep track f emtinal changes and see cnnectins, it can lead them t make changes in their behavir,” says Michelle Craske, a psychlgy and psychiatry prfessr at UCLA wh has studied the effects f md tracking.
But sme research suggests that peple dn’t experience lasting benefits because they dn’t track ften r lng enugh. “A lt f md-tracking tls are built n the idea that peple wuld track their md at least nce a day because they’re suppsed t identify patterns and triggers (诱因),” said Stephen Schueller, assciate prfessr f psychlgical science at the University f Califrnia, wh has studied md-tracking apps. Schueller and his clleagues fund that mst peple really nly track their mds a cuple f times a week. Hwever, Schueller said that while there isn’t enugh evidence t say definitely that tracking yur mds makes yu happier, there aren’t any dwnsides (缺点) — except the few extra minutes a day n yur phne.
12. What mtivates Apple t update the md-tracking sftware?
A. The glbal mental-health crisis.
B. The fierce tech cmpetitin.
C. The grwing need fr emtin management.
D. The prfessinals’ advice.
13. Which measure can imprve App users’ mental health?
A. Mnitring ne’s exercise habits.B. Sharing the recrd with a dctr.
C. Adjusting ne’s behavir accrdingly.D. Cutting dwn the screen time.
14. Why is Schueller uncertain abut md-tracking apps’ benefits?
A. Because the data can’t be shared.B. Because users dn’t recrd lng and ften.
C. Because extra screen time is harmful.D. Because the triggers are diverse.
15. What is the text mainly abut?
A. Whether it is beneficial t track md.
B. Hw Apple takes effrts t make yu happy.
C. Hw t keep a gd md.
D. Hw t keep track f gd emtins.
