Ask a teacher to name the most annoying invention of recent years and they will often mention the mobile phone. Disturbed by the problems they create, many head teachers have ordered that pupils should keep their phones switched off at school. Others have told pupils to leave them at home.

However, education researchers at The University of Nottingham believe it is time that phone bans were reassessed, because mobile phones can be a powerful learning aid, they say. Dr Elizabeth Hartnell-Young and her colleagues have reached this conclusion after studying the consequences of allowing pupils in five secondary schools to use either their own mobile phones or the new generation of ‘smartphones’ in lessons.

During the nine-month experiment, 14- to 16-year-old pupils used the phones for a wide range of educational purposes, including creating short movies, setting homework reminders, recording a teacher reading a poem, and timing experiments with the phones’ stopwatches. The smartphones, which could be connected to the Internet, also allowed pupils to access revision websites, log into the school email system, or transfer (转存) electronic files between school and home.

The research involved 331 pupils in schools in Cambridgeshire, West Berkshire and Nottingham. “At the start of the study, even pupils were often surprised at the thought that mobile phones could be used for learning,” Dr Hartnell-Young said. “After their hands-on experience, almost all pupils said they had enjoyed the project and felt more inspired.”

Some teachers found that pupils who lacked confidence gained most from the project. However, they recognised that greater use of mobile phones in schools could cause problems.

1.We can infer from the first paragraph that .

A. teachers are strongly against students owning mobile phones

B. mobile phones should be developed to meet students’ needs

A. all enjoyed the project very much

B. didn’t know what they were used for

C. didn’t fully realize the learning functions of mobile phones

D. were surprised that they were allowed to use mobile phones in schools

3.Who benefited most from the project?

A. Older pupils. B. Pupils who were not confident.

C. Younger pupils. D. Pupils who were confident.

4.The purpose of the text is to tell us that .

Over millions of years, penguins（企鹅）have developed a keen sense of where to find food. Once they’re old enough, they set off from the shores on which they were hatched for the first time and swim long distances in search of tasty fish like anchovies and sardines. But they don’t search directly for the fish themselves.

For example, when young African penguins head out to sea, they look for areas with low surface temperatures and high chlorophyll(叶绿素) because those conditions signal the presence of phytoplankton（浮游植物）. And lots of phytoplankton means lots of plankton（浮游动物）, which in turn means lots of their favorite fish. Well, that’s what it used to mean.

Climate change plus overfishing have made the penguin feeding grounds a mirage(海市蜃楼). The habitat is indeed plankton-rich—but now it’s fish-poor. Researchers call this an “ecological trap.”

“It’s a situation where you have a signal that previously pointed an animal towards good quality habitat. That habitat’s been changed, usually by human pressures. The signal stays, but the quality in the environment deteriorates.”

Richard Sherley, a zoologist at the University of Exeter and his team used satellite imaging to track the African penguins from eight sites along southern Africa. Historically, the birds benefited from tons of fish off the coasts of Angola, Namibia and western South Africa, but now they’re going hungry.

“I was really hoping we’d see them going east, and finding areas where the fish had moved to but it ends up being quite a sad story for the penguins.” said Richard.

The researchers calculate that by falling into this ecological trap, African penguin populations on South Africa's Western Cape have declined by around 80 percent.

Some research groups are exploring the idea of moving chicks to a place where they can’t get trapped, like the Eastern Cape. But Sherley thinks that a longer-term solution means making and carrying out rules to create more sustainable(可持续的) fishing industry, something that he says needs public support.

Do you want to improve your quality of life? Here is some advice.

1．Make it a point to do something brave every day. 1. This might mean talking to someone that you generally wouldn't talk to or starting a project that you feel afraid of. There is no need to plan it in advance.

2．Learn something new. Pick a topic, especially something you know nothing about and learn something about it. 2. It helps to keep it if you have time to make a note of what you learned.

3．Debate something. If you think you know about something, nothing will prove it like arguing(辩论)it with someone who's smarter than you. 3. This is easier said than done, but it can provide you with some of the best possible ideas.

4．Spend time with a child. 4. If you don't, I'm sure you have friends who would be happy to let you borrow theirs for a few minutes. It doesn't matter what age they are, children see the world entirely different. Look at it from their eyes. Enjoy the simple things again.

5．Recognize what makes you happy. 5. Everyone is working towards something, but what makes you happy now? Think of it and try to add more of what made you happy yesterday to today.

A．If you have one, consider yourself lucky.

B．Talking with little children keeps you young.

C．Actually, happiness is a true feeling from our heart!

D．Find a friend you can debate with who has different ideas.

E．Look back to the parts of your day that bring you real happiness.
