With the explosion of digital media in recent years, a growing number of students are spending their time in front of the small screen- whether it’s a Smartphone or tablet.

On average, students spend about two hours a day in front of the screen.

2 / 7

Watching TV makes up half of this time. But gradually, the time children spend watching TV is decreasing, with more and more time being given to digital media. Some of the common things kids do with digital media are playing games, watching videos and sending messages to friends.

The digital world can be used very effectively. In the survey, 74 percent of teachers said that digital media would improve students’ learning. As students can quickly get hold of information they need.

However, without guidance from teachers or parents, digital media may have bad influence on students’ attention span and communication skills. So it’s always best to use your smartphone and tablet carefully.

When using digital media, you need to find a balance. Just like study, too much can lead to information overload, and give you a headache. Also, make sure your smartphone or tablet doesn’t take priority over more important tasks. Give your eyes a rest, and remember: offline is just as fun as online.

第二节 摘录要点 （10分）

阅读下面的材料，然后在表格中完成内容摘要，每空不超过三个单词。 Some people succeed, while others may not. This is because some people have certain qualities which others do not.

If you want to be successful, the first thing you must remember is to have motivation. Without motivation, you will not try as hard as those who has. You also need to have a clear aim and a reason for doing something, because if you want to get success, motivation is the key to it.

Another quality that helps people succeed is creativity—thinking about things in a different way. Think about some successful people you know. They might be successful with more creativity, but the most successful people are the most creative ones.

Another quality that can take you closer to success is to read. You can learn about how other people got success. Other people’s stories will encourage you and then you can learn from them.

Last but not the least, you should be confident. If you feel confident about what you do, other people will choose to believe you as well. The positive energy will also

阅读下面的材料，然后根据材料内容回答问题。

The Spring Festival is coming! It’s a fun time for kids to get red envelopes（红包）. In China, the color red means happy and lucky. So people give red envelopes to send their best wishes. People do the same when they come to a birthday party of a relative or an elderly person, and visit someone who has just given birth to a baby.

It’s believed that the tradition of giving red envelope dates back to the Qing Dynasty. The elder would thread（穿成串）coins with red or colorful strings. They thought this could protect their children from sickness and death. Later, people usually use red envelopes instead of the red strings.

Now, giving and receiving red envelopes are very common to every Chinese. It’s more like a way to communicate with others. When you give a red envelope, just as what everyone else does, you feel a part of the circle. But this tradition also has its downsides. Most young people, who just started their careers, can’t afford to give a lot of money. Xiao Jun, who just found a job recently, said:‖ I feel stressed about the customs. At present I don’t have enough money.‖ Of course you can choose not to give envelopes. But you may gradually find yourself out of some social activities. Some people are calling for a change to the tradition. They argue that we don’t have to give money to show our good wishes. In the UK and the US, people often just give pretty cards to the person they want to bless. Close friends give gifts, but the gifts are usually things that are not very expensive. In this way, people can get on with each other easily and happily.

61. What does the color red mean?

__________________________________________________________________ 62. Why did the elders in the Qing Dynasty thread coins with red strings as gifts to the kids?
