19．If you visited your Qzone，Youku．com or other social media websites recently，you might have thought that some famous people and even some of your friends had gone mad．
They took buckets（桶） of icy water and poured them over their heads．They recorded the process，and even asked you to join them!
Welcome to the Ice Bucket Challenge．The challenge is simple：When challenged，one either pours a bucket of icy water over his or her head or donates $100 to the ALS（肌萎缩侧索硬化） Organization．He or she can do both，of course．
As the challenge has got more and more popular，however，I think that it has lost its real meaning．The activity's initial（最初的） purpose was to make more people pay attention to ALS and donate money for scientists to treat the disease．However，the videos have caught people's attention too far from the real purpose of the activity．Many people did it just for fun or to follow the trend（潮流）．They didn't even know what ALS was，let alone donate money to the charity．
Some people even tried hard to take the challenge in a funny way．They didn't know how bad the ALS patients would feel if they watched those videos．
At the same time，the world is facing another challenge-the water crisis（危机）．According to The Washington Post，the Ice Bucket Challenge had already used over 5 million gallons （14 million liters） of water by August，which put the world's freshwater reserves（储存） under a lot of pressure．
In short，the Ice Bucket Challenge has changed from a good thing to a show．ALS patients need our kindness，help and respect．We should do something to help them．
29．According to the passage，the real purpose of the Ice Bucket Challenge was toC．
A．ask more people to join in making films and become famous．
B．let more people have fun and follow the trend．
C．make more people pay attention to ALS and donate money．
D．make ALS patients feel that they are not alone．
30．Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage？A
A．Many people knew what ALS was and donated lots of money．
B．Some people tried to take the challenge in a funny way．
C．The Ice Bucket Challenge has wasted a lot of water．
D．The world is facing another challenge-the water crisis．
31．What best describes the writer's attitude to the Ice Bucket Challenge？B
A．Exited．B．Worried．C．Satisfied．D．Interested．
16．Since the 1970s，scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers．Brain-computer interface（BCI） technology could help people with disabilities to send orders to machines．
Recently，two researchers，Jose Milan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic school in Lausanne，Switzerland，showed a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person's thoughts．
In the laboratory，Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand．He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts．
"Our brain has billions of nerve cells．These send signals through the spinal cord （脊髓）to the muscles to give us the ability to move．But spinal cord injuries or other cases can prevent these weak signals from reaching the muscles，"Tavella says．"Our system allows disabled people to communicate with the outside world and also to control machines．"
The researchers designed a special cap for the user．This cap picks up the signals from the scalp（头皮） and sends them to a computer．The computer interprets the signals and commands the robotic wheelchair．The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path．They help the computer react to commands from the brain．
Prof．Milan，the team leader says his team has set two goals．One is testing with real patients，so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from．And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time．

12．How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory？D
A．By controlling his muscles．
B．By talking to the machine．
C．By moving his hand．
D．By using his mind．
13．Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5？C
A．scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair    
B．computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair
C．scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair    
D．cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair
14．The team will test with real patients toB．
A．make profits from them              
B．prove the technology useful to them
C．make them live longer               
D．learn about their physical condition
15．Which of the following would be the best title for the text？C
A．Switzerland，the BCI Research Center
B．New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C．BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D．Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries．
2．Many people lie awake at night，worrying about something from their job to the future．Now，researchers have discovered a simple and cheap solution：going to bed earlier．What time a person goes to bed and how much they sleep affects how much they worry，according to a new study．
Researchers found people who go to bed later，or sleep less，have pessimistic thoughts that seem to repeat in their minds，which they feel unable to control．
They also tend to worry excessively about the future，look back too much on the past，and experience annoying thoughts，mirroring the symptoms of people with anxiety and depression．
Regular lack of sleep might actually be linked to the development of anxiety，the researchers concluded．
The findings，coming after a number of studies，suggested getting between seven and eight hours sleep which is essential for good health．Less than this is thought to increase the risk of a person becoming fat，depressed，and can even cause severe health problems such as cancer and heart disease，because it upsets the body clock．
As part of the new study，researchers asked 100young adults at Binghamton University to complete questionnaires and two tasks on computer．These measured how much the students worried about something．They were also asked if they were more of a"morning"or an"evening"person．
The researchers found that people who sleep for shorter periods of time-and go to bed later-often experience more negative thoughts than others．
This was also true for those students who described themselves as evening types．
Jacob Nota，of Binghamton University，who carried out the research，said，"Making sure that sleep is obtained during the right time of the day may be an inexpensive and easy solution for individuals who are both bothered by negative thoughts"．
29．According to the findings mentioned in the passage，which of the following shows the correct order？D
A．Experiencing negative thoughts-＞Going to bed late-＞Suffering anxiety
B．Going to bed late-＞Suffering anxiety-＞Experiencing negative thoughts
C．Suffering anxiety-＞Experiencing negative thoughts-＞Going to bed late
D．Going to bed late～＞Experiencing negative thoughts-＞Suffering anxiety
30．What information do Para 2and Para 3mainly give？B
A．The causes of sleeping less
B．The  findingsof the research on sleep
C．Symptoms of anxiety and depression
D．The  effects of the research on sleep
31．How was the research carried out？B
A．By testing and comparing
B．Bysurveyingandanalyzing
C．By checking and measuring
D．Byobserving and interviewing．
