26、 Roughly the size of a soda can, sitting on a bookshelf, a relatively harmless device may be turning friends away from your home. The elephant in your living room is your Internet-connected camera, a device people are increasingly using for peace of mind in their homes. But few stop to think about the effect these devices may have on house guests. Should you tell your friends, for instance, that they’re being recorded while you all watch the big game together?
“It’s certainly new territory (领地), especially as home security cameras become easier to fix,” says Lizzie Post, president of the Emily Post Institute, America’s distinguished manners advisors. “I think it will be very interesting to see what manners appear in terms of whether you tell people you have a camera or not, and whether guests have a right to ask that it be turned off, if it’s not a security issue.” Post wants to make clear that she’s not talking about legal rights, but rather personal preference.
When it comes to security cameras, Post says it’s a host’s responsibility to make sure guests feel comfortable within their home. If the host casually acknowledges that there is a camera in the room by telling a story about, it that may be enough to provide an opening for a guest to say if they are uncomfortable.
However, if a contractor (合约工) is working in your home, you don’t need to tell them that there are cameras watching. Then again, the camera can also work in contractors’ favor. “If anything does go wrong while they’re in the house, they don’t want to be blamed for it,” she says. “In fact, the camera could be the thing that proves that they didn’t steal the $20, or knock the vase off the table.”
【1】What is Lizzie Post mainly discussing about the use of home security cameras?
A.Legal rights.
B.Moral issues.
C.The possible impact on health.
D.Likes and dislikes of individuals.
【2】According to Post, what is a host’s responsibility concerning the security camera?
A.Indicating its position.
B.Turning it on all the time.
C.Making their guests feel at ease.
D.Having a casual talk with guests.
【3】How can the home security camera help contractors working in your home?
A.It can prove their innocence.
B.It can record their working progress.
C.It can prevent the accidents happening.
D.It can make their work more enjoyable.
【4】What’s the author’s attitude towards the security camera?
A.Negative. B.Pessimistic.
C.Favorable. D.Objective.
27、
Let’s say you want to hit the gym more regularly this year. How do you make that happen? Consider putting the habit loop to use.
Here’s how it works:
A habit is a 3-step process. First, there’s a cue, something that tells your brain to operate automatically. Then there’s a routine. And finally, a reward, which helps your brain learn to desire the behavior. It's what you can use to create-or break-habits of your own.
Here’s how to apply it:
Choose a cue, like leaving your running shoes by the door, then pick a reward—say, a piece of chocolate when you get home from the gym. That way, the cue and the reward become interconnected. Finally, when you see the shoes, your brain will start longing for the reward, which will make it easier to work out day after day. The best part? In a couple of weeks, you won’t need the chocolate at all. Your brain will come to see the workout itself as the reward. Which is the whole point, right?
【1】Which of the following best fits in the box with a “?” in THE HABIT LOOP?
A．Pick a new cue.
B．Form a new habit.
C．Choose a new reward.
D．Design a new resolution.
【2】What’s the purpose of putting the habit loop to use?
A．To test out different kinds of cues.
B．To do something as a habit even without rewards.
C．To work out the best New Year’s resolution.
D．To motivate yourself with satisfactory rewards.
【3】“This year when I see the Harry Potter poster, I will read 30 pages of an English novel or an English newspaper in order to watch TV for half an hour.” What is the cue in this resolution?
A．The Harry Potter poster.
B．Reading 30 pages of an English novel.
C．An English newspaper.
D．Watching TV for half an hour.
28、阅读下面短文，从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项.
Philosophers from Aristotle to the Beatles have argued that money does not buy happiness. But it seems to help. Since 2005，Gallup, a pollster (民意调查) has asked a representative sample of adults from countries across the world to rate their life satisfaction on a scale from zero to ten. The headline result is clear : the richer the country, on average, the higher the level of self-reported happiness. The simple correlation (相关性) suggests that doubling GDP per person lifts life satisfaction by about 0.7 points.
Yet the prediction that as a country gets richer, its mood will improve has an unclear record. In 1974 Richard Easterlin, an economist, discovered that average life satisfaction in America had failed to develop between 1946 and 1970 even as GDP per person had grown by 65% over the same period. He went on to find a similar disconnection in other places, too. Although income is correlated with happiness when looking across countries—and although economic downturns are reliable sources of short-term suffering—long-term GDP growth does not seem to be enough to turn the average frown (皱眉) upside-down.
The “Easterlin paradox (悖论)” has been hotly debated since, with some economists claiming to find a link between growth and rising happiness by using better quality data. On March 20th the latest Gallup data were presented in the World Happiness Report, an annual UN-backed study. The new data provide some evidence for both sides of the debate, but on the whole, suggest that the paradox is alive and well.
There are important examples of national income and happiness rising and falling together. The most significant—in terms of population—is China, where GDP per person has doubled over a decade, while average happiness has risen by 0. 43 points. Among rich countries, Germany enjoys higher incomes and greater cheer than ten years ago. Venezuela, once the fifth-happiest country in the world, has become miserable as its economy has collapsed. Looking across countries, growth is correlated with rising happiness.
Yet that correlation is very weak. Of the 125 countries for which good data exist, 43 have seen GDP per person and happiness move in opposite directions. Like China, India is a populous developing economy that is growing quickly. But happiness is down by about 1.2 points in the past decade. America, the subject of Easterlin’s first study, has again seen happiness fall as the economy has grown. In total, the world’s population looks roughly equally divided between places where happiness and incomes have moved in the same direction over the past ten years, and places where they have separated.
【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A.Economic downturns do not cause people’s unhappiness.
B.Economic growth increased average life satisfaction in America.
C.Long-term GDP growth does not necessarily make people happy.
D.The correlation between people’s mood and income can be predicted.
【2】Which of the following countries has both a better economy and happier people?
A.India. B.America. C.Venezuela. D.China.
【3】The passage is mainly developed by__________.
A.giving explanations B.presenting research data
C.giving definition D.listing examples
【4】Which of the following does the writer probably agree with?
A.The relationship between economic growth and rising happiness is uncertain.
B.Countries with similar population tend to have more things in common.
C.Half of the world enjoys growth when economy and mood are positive.
D.National income and happiness will always rise and fall regularly.
29、 Getting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey(调查) by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.
How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal(理想的). But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.
“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone,” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers’ bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.
Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.
【1】What is the general idea of the first paragraph?
A.All American kids get less sleep.
B.American kids have bad habits.
C.Most Americans kids get less sleep and the bad influence of it.
D.American kids feel asleep in class.
【2】Which of the following statements is correct?
A.When you sleep depends on your age.
B.Most children watch TV before they sleep.
C.Some children are lacking in sleep.
D.Adults will be healthier if they get more sleep.
【3】Why do children find it hard to fall asleep?
A.They get too excited before 11p.m.
B.Hormones get high at night.
C.Their bodies develop adult characteristics.
D.They may watch too much TV.
【4】What is the solution to the problem of sleepiness among children?
A.Urging them to sleep earlier.
B.Not allowing them to watch TV before sleep.
C.Getting up later than before.
D.Not going to school earlier.
【5】What is the author’s attitude toward the change of school start time?
A.Objective B.Indifferent
C.Positive D.Negative
