8．Electrical devices（仪器）could soon use power make by human energy．Scientists say they have developed an experimental device that produces electricity from the physical movement of a person walking．British scientist Max Donelan and other scientists in Canada and the United States developed the device．
The device connects to a person's knee．As the person walks，the device captures energy each time the person slows down．To do this，the device helps with the slowing sown movement of the leg．The movements of the walking person push parts of a small machine that produces electricity．Using the device，an adult walking quickly could produce thirteen watts of electricity in just a minute．Donelan says walking at that speed could produce enough power to operate a laptop computer for six minutes．
There are several possible uses for the device．Developers say it could help people who work in areas without electricity to operate small computers．The device could also be used in hospitals to operate heart pacemakers（起博器）．It could even be used to assist in the movement of robotic arms and legs．
The experimental version of the device weighs about one and a half kilograms，but it is too costly for most people to buy．But the researchers hope to make a lighter，less costly version．An improved version should be ready in one year．
The developers hope the device will one day help developing countries．Nearly twenty five percent of people around the world live without electric power．
A similar product was invented in 2005by Larry Rome of the University of Pennsylvania．He created a bag carried on a person's back that also produces power from walking．The knee device does not produce as much electricity as the bag．But the bag requires the walker to carry a load of twenty to thirty kilograms．

66．The second paragraph mainly talks aboutB．
A．who developed the device
B．how the device works
C．several possible uses for the devices
D．how much electricity the device can produce
67．What is the disadvantage of the experimental version of the device？C
A．It is too heavy for the walker to bear
B．It is too complex for people to use
C．It is too expensive for most people to afford
D．It will slow down one's walking speed．
68．Compared with the device designed by Larry Rome，this new deviceA．
A．produces power without adding more loads to the walker
B．can produce more power in a much shorter time
C．needs to be equipped with a battery
D．can help the walker walk faster
69．From the passage，we can learn that the electrical device canD．
A．help housewives operate the washing machine
B．make it much easier for us to go online
C．produce more electricity than that invented by Larry Rome
D．be applied to operate heart pacemakers
70．What would be the best title for the passage？C
A．First device powered by walking will soon be on the market
B．Advanced technology brings in a new way to operate heart pacemakers
C．Device gives new meaning to the idea of power walking
D．Human energy will become a main source of electricity．

18．I am a psychologist．I first met Timothy，a quiet，overweight elevenyearold boy，when his mother brought him to me to discuss his declining grades．A few minutes with Timothy were enough to confirm that his self-esteem （自尊） and general happiness were falling right along with them．
I asked about Timothy's typical day．He awoke every morning at six thirty so he could reach his school by eight and arrived home around four thirty each afternoon．He then had a quick snack，followed by either a piano lesson or a lesson with his math tutor．He finished dinner at 7pm，and then he sat down to do homework for two to three hours．Quickly doing the math in my head，I found that Timothy spent an average of thirteen hours a day at a writing desk．
What if Timothy spent thirteen hours a day at a sewing machine instead of a desk？We would immediately be shocked，because that would be called children being horribly mistreated．Timothy was far from being mistreated，but the mountain of homework he faced daily resulted in a similar consequence-he was being robbed of his childhood．In fact，Timothy had no time to do anything he truly enjoyed，such as playing video games，watching movies，or playing board games with his friends．
Play，however，is a crucial part of healthy child development．It affects children's creativity，their social skills，and even their brain development．The absence of play，physical exercise，and freefrom social interaction takes a serious toll on many children．It can also cause significant health problems like childhood obesity，sleep problems and depression．
Experts in the field recommend the minutes children spend on their homework should be no more than ten times the number of their grade level．As a fifthgrader，Timothy should have no more than fifty minutes a day of homework （instead of three times that amount）．Having an extra two hours an evening to play，relax，or see a friend would soundly benefit any child's life quality．
62．What does the underlined word"them"in the first paragraph probably refer to？B
A．Timothy's parents．B．Timothy's grades．
C．Psychologists．D．The students．
63．What did the writer think of Timothy after learning about his typical day？C
A．Timothy was very hardworking．
B．Timothy was being mistreated．
C．Timothy had a heavy burden．
D．Timothy was enjoying his childhood．
64．Which of the following statements best describes the writer's opinion？A
A．Children should be allowed enough time to play．
B．Playing board games works better than playing video games．
C．The more they play，the more creative children will become．
D．The depression caused by homework makes children unwilling to play．
65．According to the passage，how long should a thirdgrader spend a day doing homework？C
A．About ten minutes．
B．No more than twenty minutes．
C．No more than thirty minutes．
D．About fifty minutes．
