Question

【题目】Recently, Chongqing Three Gorges University has held an activity named “Cell Phone Ninja” (手机忍者). They would like their students not to use cell phones for 21 days. It is really a challenge (挑战) for most students.

The activity started on April 12. Each student who volunteered to take part in this activity got a bracelet (手环). If the students did not use their cell phones, there would be a photo on the screen of the bracelet to show that. If they used their cell phones, a different photo would appear on the screen of the bracelet. After the last class of each day, the students sent the photos to the school’s public WeChat.

More than 800 students wished to take part in this test, and 400 were chosen. After seven days, only 103 students remained. The test was set for 21 days because some scientists believe that 21 days is long enough to help form (形成) a habit.

【解析】

近日重庆三峡学院举行了一个叫"手机忍者"活动。他们希望他们的学生不要使用手机21天。对于大多数学生来说这真是一个挑战。这一活动不是一个竞争。这取决于学生自己的决定。老师希望他们的学生能通过这样的活动形成更好的学习习惯。

【1】细节理解题。根据第二段第一句"The activity started on April 12．"可知活动开始的时间是4月12日。回答时，可用it代替问句中的主语the activity" Cell Phone Ninja"．根据问句中的did，可知时态应该用一般过去时。故答案为：It started on April 12．

【2】细节理解题。根据"More than 800 students wished to take part in this test，and 400 were chosen．"可知800多人报名参加，只有400人被选择。故答案为：400 (were chosen)．

【3】细节理解题。根据"The test was set for 21 days because some scientists believe that 21days is long enough to help form （形成） a habit．"可知这次活动设置为21天，是因为科学家们认为21天是一个足够长的时间去形成一个好习惯。故作答时，用because引导的原因状语从句即可。故答案为Because （some scientists believe that） 21 days is long enough to help people form a habit．

【4】判断推理题。根据手环的使用说明"If the students did not use their cell phones，there would be a photo on the screen of the bracelet to show that．If they used their cell phones，a different photo would appear on the screen of the bracelet"可知手环是用来检测学生是不是使用过手机。故答案为：It was used for showing whether the students used the cell phone（s）or not．

【5】细节理解题。根据句子The teachers hoped their students could form better study habits through activities like this one.可知，老师希望他们的学生通过这样的活动能养成更好的学习习惯。这是举办这次活动的目的。故答案为：Teachers hope their students can develop better study habits through such activities.
