A man once said how useless it was to put advertisement in the newspapers “l(fā)ast week,” said he, “my umbrella was stolen from a London church. As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but didn't get it back.”
“How did you write your advertisement?” asked one of the listeners, a merchant.
“Here it is,” said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, “Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street.”
“Now,” said the merchant, “I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of extreme importance. Let us try for your umbrella again and if it fails, I'll buy you a new one.”
The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: “If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn't wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No.10 Broad Street. He is well known.”
This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colours that had been thrown, and his own was among them. Many of them had notes fastened to them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging the loser not to say anything about the matter.

Children can spend hours a day looking at computer screens and other digital devices(數(shù)碼設(shè)備). Some eye doctors say this leads to an increase in “computer vision syndrome(電腦視力綜合癥).”
Nathan Bonilla-Warford is an optometrist(驗(yàn)光師)in Tampa, Florida. He has seen an increase in problems in children. “A lot more children come into the office either because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red or watery eyes or discomfort, or because their nearsightedness appears to be increasing and they’re worried,” he says.
Dr. Bonilla-Warford says part of the problem is that children may be more likely to pay no attention to early warning signs than adults. “Even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, they’re less likely to tell their parents, because they don’t want to have the game or the computer or whatever taken away,” he explains.
He says another part of the problem is that people blink(眨眼)less often when they use digital devices. He says, “A person who uses an electronic device blinks about one third as much as we normally do in everyday life. And so that can result in the front part of the eye drying and not staying protected like normal.”
Eye doctors offer suggestions like following which is known as the 20/20/20 rule. That means every twenty minutes look away twenty feet or more for at least twenty seconds from whatever device you’re using.
Other suggestions include putting more distance between you and the device and using good lighting. Of course, another way is to spend less time looking at screens. Many experts say children should spend no more than two hours a day using digital devices—with no screen time for children under two.
But not all eye doctors have noticed an increase in problems in children. Dr. David Hunter, from Children’s Hospital Boston, has not seen an increase in his practice. “While it is possible to develop fatigue looking at screens for a long period of time, there’s certainly no proof that it actually causes any damage(傷害)to the eyes.” he says.
【小題1】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Dr. Bonilla-Warford thinks using computers causes nearsightedness. |
B.People keep their eyes protected against drying by blinking normally. |
C.Children under two can watch TV for less than two hours a day. |
D.Dr. David Hunter says headache causes an increase in eye problems. |
A.Interest. | B.Ability. | C.Tiredness. | D.Difficulty. |
A.Looking at Screen: Two Hours or More |
B.How Can Children Use Their Eyes Properly |
C.Using Digital Devices: Advantages and Disadvantages |
D.How Much Screen Time Is Too Much for Children |

Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male(man, instead of woman),claims(聲明) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same kind are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and frighten(恐嚇)you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting(筑巢)season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.
You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
51. Some scientists believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually_____.
A. an expression of happiness B. a way of warning
C. an expression of anger D. a way of greeting
52. It can be inferred from the text that
A.Bird’s song is not enough to keep an outsider away
B.Birds sing most of the just because they are happy
C.Birds sing loudest when it’s spring only to warn others not to go into their territory
D.Birds sing mostly to attract mates and set up their territories
53. The underlined word “territory” in the second paragraph refers to
A. a house where families or friends are welcome.
B. a place where a bird shuts at the top of its voice.
C. an area for which birds fight against each other.
D. an area which an animal or bird says it’s own.
54. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?
A. They want to invite more friends of his kind
B. Their singing helps frighten outsiders away.
C. They are frightened in their nests in daytime
D. They want to find if there are outsiders around
55. how does the writer explain birds’ singing?
A. by comparing birds with human beings.
B. by reporting experiment results
C. by writing diaries of birds’ daily life
D. by telling birds’interesting stories.
