What will humans look like in the future It sounds like a cool question, but the answer may not be that fun.
A team from Toll Free Forwarding, a US company, built a 3D model of what a human might look like in the year 3000. Her name is Mindy. She looks a little bit scary. The company said the model showed how technology（科技）will change human bodies in less than 800 years. For example, Mindy's hands look like she is always holding a cellphone. That's called \"text claw（爪）”, according to the team. Mindy also has a much wider neck（颈）. It's called \"tech neck\". It's from looking down at the phone for too long. Muscles（肌肉）in our necks need to be stronger to support（支撑）our heads.
Mindy also has another eyelid（服皮）. It can protect the eyes from the blue light of the screens. Her skull（头骨）is thicker（更厚）. It protects（保护）the brain from the radiation（辐射）of computers and phones. Technology is so helpful that humans think less. That's why humans may also have smaller brains in the future.
Will you spend less time on your computer and cellphone after seeing this scary model
58. What do we know about the 3D model in Paragraph 2
A. It comes from the year 3000. B. It is made for a girl

① Last July, China introduced the \"Double reduction\" policy（双减政策）. It hopes to cut down students' learning burden（负担）by cutting down homework and after-school classes. After-school training centers mustn't offer classes of school subjects on weekends and holidays. Let's see how people feel about this new policy.
第 12 页 共 18 页
② \"Our homework is clearly less than before,\" said 13-year-old Shen Yu from Beijing. \"And the homework is not so difficult as before.\" Shen thinks students have more time to learn something they like. \"Our teachers are also giving us more chances to learn from real life,\" said Shen. \"This is a much better way to lean things than just reading the books.\"
③ For 14-year-old Zhang Hangming from Tianjin, the best thing about the policy is that we can increase time in after-school activities. \"My school finishes one hour later than before. As a result, I can finish my homework at school. Then I can go to my favorite soccer club,\" said Zhang.
④ Meanwhile, teachers are getting busier, and they have to stay at school longer on weekdays. \"The school is planning more activities for students. We are trying to make lessons better and improve homework for students,\" said Mr Chen from Guangzhou Middle School.
⑤ Wang Jun, the father of a middle school student, said he could now pick up his son after work. \"The family have more time to stay together. And children can be fresh after a good break,\" he said.
⑥ Anyway, under the new policy, self-discipline（自律）becomes the key. Some kids now spend more time having fun when they finish the homework early. But if they use all the free time to relax, they might fall behind in their study.
