If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the same as money.It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money. 【4】 because you have more chances to challenge yourself . so you can not always say you are poor and you have bad luck.

24、
Question A: My friend will go to a concert by my favorite singer. But she does not even like that singer! It is not fair. | Answer 1: When your friend comes over, spend time with her alone instead of including your sister. No fight, no problem. But if your friend and your sister get into a fight, you will need to stand out, “I know you don’t love my sister, but I do. Please don’t say anythingbad like that, OK?” A true friend wouldn’t make you choose between friendship and family. |
Question B: I love doing sports, but my dad says I will never be the best of the team. What should I do? | Answer 2: It’s easy to see why you are upset, and you are right- so not fair at all.

Envy(嫉妒) makes you feel uncomfortable, and there is no need to feel sorry for yourself or jealous(嫉妒的) of someone else. So try to let this go. Think about what you have and be thankful for them. |
Question C: My best friend doesn’t like my sister. I love my sister! But I don’t want to lose my friend. | Answer 3: Sports can be about competition. They can also be about exercise and friends and fun. In any sport or activity, you can always enjoy yourself without being No. 1. Don’t be against your father. Ask him what he really cares about.

26、 An article just published says some forms of screen time are more harmful to academic(学业的) achievement than others. The researchers found that viewing television and playing video games appeared to have a negative effect on academic achievement.
Based on an analysis of the data from 58 studies related to screen time and various measures of academic achievement, it should be noted that some individual studies do find a connection between total screen time and academics. Too much screen time produces several problems, including academics, sleep, socialization as well as physical and mental health.
The findings of the new study lend support to the need to look at not only how much time teens spend on the use of digital devices but what positive and negative effects various devices may have on academic achievement. The bottom line is that parents and educational professionals should consider supervision(监督) and reduction on screen time to improve the academic performance of teens, as the academic performance of teens appeared to be more adversely affected than that of children.
Children may be obsessed with activities like playing games, while teens can even stay up all night texting or chatting. So the most important rule should be no digital devices of any kind allowed in bedrooms. Also, there should be no screen time of any type at least one hour before bedtime. The blue light from these devices causes teens to have trouble falling asleep.
Alternatives(替代品) to digital use can be physical activities or reading. There is an increase in Vitamin D deficiency(不足) in teens from not getting at least an hour per day of exposure to the sun and they need to spend more time outside. Spending time reading each day is vital(important) for all family members. It’s great to read the same book and discuss different thoughts. Research is starting to show that we comprehend more from reading from books on paper than books on screen.
Besides limiting time and encouraging alternative activities, teens are encouraged to use media creatively. This might include making videos, recording their own music, or learning to code. Apps to teach office skills or researching are great. While monitoring and setting limits are the key, parents also need to suggest and encourage alternative uses of digital devices as well as alternative activities to replace the screen time.
【1】The second paragraph is mainly about ______.
A.the influence of the new study B.methods used in the new study
C.the conclusion of the new study D.suggestions given by the new study
【2】The underlined word “adversely” probably means “______”.
A.in an unfavorable way B.in an unusual way
C.in an unbelievable way D.in an interesting way
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Teens should be banned from using media in most cases.
B.The study focuses on the influence screen time has on teens’ health.
C.Viewing television much can get in the way of good test performance.
D.It’s better to go outside than to read as an alternative activity to screen time.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Should Teens Say Goodbye to Screen Time?
B.What Can Be Alternatives to Digital Use for Teens?
C.Can Screen Time Influence Teens’ Performance at School?
D.How Should Teens Change the Way They Use Digital Devices?
