1. B [2]
Explanation: "不辞辛劳" means "not sparing any effort/labour", describing someone working hard without complaint. The context says Mother cared for the sick sister all night without sleep.

• A. 专心致志 (focused attention) — describes concentration, not endurance.
• C. 全神贯注 (fully concentrated) — similar to A.
• D. 心不在焉 (absent-minded) — opposite meaning.

2. A [2]
Explanation: "描写得" (described vividly) collocates naturally with "生动" (vivid) for articles/writing. "写得" is grammatically possible but less precise; "叙述得" (narrated) and "刻画得" (portrayed/depicted, usually for characters) are less suitable for the whole article.

3. A [2]
Explanation: "沉着冷静" (calm and composed) is the correct attitude when facing difficulties. The sentence contrasts this with complaining.

• B. 心烦意乱 (anxious and confused)
• C. 惊慌失措 (panic-stricken)

• A. 由于 / B. 因为 (because) — too plain, not idiomatic for crediting people's participation.
• D. 凭借 (relying on) — usually followed by one's own ability/effort, not others' participation.

Explanation: Electronic products bring great "convenience" to life. All three synonyms fit.

7. 问题 / 隐患 / 弊端 / 负面影响 [2]
Explanation: The following sentences list negative effects (addiction, health issues, studies affected), so "problems/hidden dangers/drawbacks/negative impacts" fits.

8. 情感 / 联系 / 交流 / 关系 [2]
Explanation: Face-to-face communication decreased, so "emotional connection/contact/communication/relationship" between people became distant.

9. 时间 / 时长 / 频率 [2]
Explanation: Experts suggest reasonably arranging the "time/duration/frequency" of using electronic products.

10. 善用 / 合理利用 / 掌握 / 驾驭 [2]
