3．Are you always looking at your mobile phone as you're walking，playing with it as you're studying，and reluctant to put it down as you go to bed？Tired of a life controlled by their mobile phones，many young people seem to be intent on working out how to overcome it.
One of the popular gadgets is the mobile phone isolation box.Users simply put their mobile phone in the box and set a time lock that will bar them from having access to the phone for a set time.Some boxes allow users to respond to emergencies.These isolation boxes can be adapted to almost all types of mobile phones on the market.The locking time generally ranges from one minute to 12 hours，and the price is generally about 100-200 Yuan.Xianfeng Technology，one of the sellers on Taobao says： "Our main customers are students and office workers.They usually ask for engraving some inspirational quotes on the box when buying.Some parents who feel their children are wasting time on Douyin and ruining their studies are also buying them.This physical box is much better than software on phones." Xianfeng's after-sales comment section is filled with positive comment from buyers who say the box has helped them become more self-disciplined.
However，Lin Tianqi，a college student says，because the lock time is set by users，whether they can achieve their goal depends on the individual.A five-hour lockup is too harsh，she says，but one of her friends locks the box for just 30 minutes，she seems to delude herself.Liang Wenyu，another college student，sneers at these "flashy" attempts. "Regardless of the effectiveness of the isolation box，You might as well lock yourself up.As simple as that." he says. "I can understand why they need these blood pumping quotes on the box- because they lack discipline.How about simply taking back your time.Self-disciplined people are bound to succeed without such gimmicks.

4．Insect numbers have plunged by half in some parts of the world due to climate change and intensive agriculture，a study has found.The combined pressures of global heating and farming are driving a "substantial decline" of insects across the globe，according to UK researchers.They say we must acknowledge the threats we pose to insects，before some species are lost forever.But preserving habitat for nature could help ensure vital insects thrive.
Lead researcher，Dr Charlie Outhwaite of UCL，said losing insect populations could be harmful not only to the natural environment，but to "human health and food security，particularly with losses of pollinators". "Our findings highlight the urgency of actions to preserve natural habitats，slow the expansion of high-intensity agriculture，and cut emissions to mitigate climate change，" she added.
Plummeting populations of insects around the world have caused widespread concern.However，scientific data gives a mixed picture，with some types of insects showing drastic declines，while others are staying steady.In the latest study，the researchers pulled together data on the range and number of nearly 20，000 insect species，including bees，ants，butterflies，grasshoppers and dragonflies，at about 6，000 different locations.In areas with high-intensity agriculture and substantial warming，insect numbers have plunged by 49% and the number of different species by 27%，compared with relatively untouched places that have so far avoided the most severe impacts of climate change，according to the research，published in Nature.
But the researchers said there was some cause for hope in that setting aside areas of land for nature created a refuge for insects，which need shade to survive in hot weather. "Careful management of agricultural areas，such as preserving natural habitats near farmland，may help to ensure that vital insects can still thrive，" said Dr Tim Newbold，also of UCL.
Study researcher，Peter McCann，added： "We need to acknowledge how important insects are for the environment as a whole，and for human health and wellbeing，in order to address the threats，we pose to them before many species are lost forever."
（1）Which of the following statements is TRUE？
A．Environment and human could be affected by losing insect populations.
B．The losses of insects result from temperature rise or agriculture.
C．Protecting habitat for nature could increase various insect numbers.
D．Many actions have been taken to control the losses of insects.
（2）What do we learn from paragraph3 and paragraph 4？
A．Almost all insects suffer catastrophe.
B．Areas with more impacts of climate change ensure insects' survival.
C．Natural lands should be set aside and saved for the survival of insects.
D．Nearly 20，000 insects at about 6000 places participated in the research.
（3）What does Peter McCann want to convey？
A．Insects are important for the environment and human.
B．Many insect species will die out soon.
C．Human should be to blame for the losses of insect species.
D．Something should be done to preserve some insects from extinction.
（4）Which would be the best title for the passage？
A．A research on insects.
B．The influence of insects on humans.
C．Protection of insects.
D．Climate change and farming driving insect decline.組卷：7引用：3難度：0.6
