【題目】

Some apps highlight (凸顯)when a person is online—and then share the information with the followers. Researchers at the University of Washington say that people could have more control over whether to show their online status (狀態(tài))in this case.

To find out whether people realize the apps are sharing this information and whether these indicators (標識)change how people behave online, the research team carried out a study among users of different apps.

The team asked participants if the apps they used showed their online status to their network. Almost 90% of the participants correctly named at least one of the apps they used that had online status indicators. But for at least one app they used, 62. 5% answered “not sure” and 35. 5% answered "no.” (Actually the app did.) The researchers also asked participants whether they noticed when others were online, whether they thought others noticed when they were online, and whether they had changed their own behavior because they did or didn't want to appear online.

The answers show that many people misunderstand online status indicators but still carefully shape their behavior to control how they are displayed to others. More than half of the participants reported that they had suspected ('懷疑有)that someone had noticed their status. Meanwhile, over half reported that they had logged on to an app just to check someone else5s status. And 43% of the participants mentioned changing their settings or behavior because they were trying to avoid one specific person.

“We see this repeated way of people changing their behavior to meet the demands of technologyas opposed to technology adapting to us and meeting our needs,” said Lucy Simko, a UW doctoral student in the Allen School That means people are choosing to go online not because they want to do something there but because it's important that their status indicator is projecting the right thing at the right time.

“Now, many people are working from home and socializing only online to fight the coronavirus pandemic (新冠疫情),and some employees use their online status to indicate that they are working and available for meetings," the team says. So there's an opportunity to think about how future development of this technology could change how people use online status indicators.

Your comfort zone is a place, activity, situation or psychological state in which you feel free from anxiety and things are within your ability or control. But stepping out of it also has positive results.

When you break free and try new things, you'll be more productive and get more unexpected changes. That's because by living outside your comfort zone when you choose to, you can experience uncertainty in a controlled, manageable environment, which can prepare you for future life changes that force you out of it. Besides, as you step out of your comfort zone, productive discomfort becomes more normal to you, and you'll be willing to push further before your performance falls off.

Here are some ways to break out of your comfort zone without going too far:

Do everyday things differently. Ride your bike instead of taking the bus to school. Try a different diet. Use a new operating system. Don't be upset if things don't work out the way you planned.

Break the activity down into small steps. If you're frightened or overwhelmed (難以承受的)by the challenge you\e picked for yourself, don't do it at once. You can make it a multi-step process that will let you slowly climb that mountain.

Trust yourself and make snap decisions. Perhaps you are more comfortable weighing all of the possible choices several times, but sometimes making a snap call is in order, just to get things moving. Doing so can help you kickstart your personal projects and teach you to trust your judgment.

Yet, with all its possible benefits, you can't live outside of your comfort zone all the time. You need to come back from time to time to review your experiences. Take time to reflect on your experiences so you can apply the benefits you've got to your day-to-day activities.

Your comfort zone is neither a good or bad thing. It's a natural state that most people trend towards (傾向于). Leaving it means increased risk and anxiety, which can have positive and negative results, but don't demonize (妖魔化)your comfort zone as something holding you hack. We all need that headspace where we're least anxious and stressed so we can process the benefits we get when we leave it.

1The word "snap” in Paragraph 6 probably means "______________" .

A.quickB.clearC.balancedD.thoughtful

2Which might be the best example of breaking out of your comfort zone without going too far?

A.You went shopping when you were bored or upset.

B.You decided to watch a movie before the final exam.

C.You tried on all the shirts in a store to find the one you wanted.

D.You walked to school today although you prefer riding your bike.

3The writer probably agrees that ______________.

A.experiencing uncertainty in a controlled way has negative effects

B.making a change to our routine helps to increase our productivity

C.reducing stress and risk is what we need to bring out the best in us

D.breaking activities down into small steps leads to greater achievements

4What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To explain the reasons to step out of the comfort zone.

B.To advise people to treat the comfort zone in a proper way.

C.To introduce some ways of improving day-to-day performance.

D.To stress the importance of dealing with uncomfortable moments.

【題目】

Masks, a simple protective tool, have been used by people for a long time. They can not only prevent epidemics, but also protect us from other harmful things, such as smog (霧霾) and chemicals. When was the protective mask first invented and how did it develop? Let's take a look.

1st century

At this time, lots of people in the Roman Empire worked underground in mines (礦井). Many died of lung (肺部) diseases caused by dust. Pliny the Elder (23-79), a Roman philosopher, used animal bladders (膀胱) to protect miners from the dust. This was the first recorded use of protective masks.

16thcentury

Italian artist and inventor Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) advised people to wear a woven (紡織的) cloth dipped in water over their faces to protect against harmful chemicals.

19th century

In 1848, American Lewis Hassley became the first person to patent (注冊專利) a protective mask for miners. In 1897, Polish-Austrian doctor Johann von Mikulicz Radecki designed a simple mask with one layer of gauze (紗布). He advised medical workers to wear it to prevent infection. This was the first use of a surgical (外科的) mask.

20th Century

In 1910, the pneumonic plague (肺鼠疫) broke out in Northeast China. Chinese doctor Wu Liande designed a face mask called 'Wu's mask'. It was made of two layers of gauze. The mask was praised by experts around the world because it could be produced easily and cheaply.

Today

With several outbreaks of flu and the air pollution in recent years, masks have continued to develop. For example, in 2012, when China suffered from smog, mask models such as N95 and KN95 became popular. They can filter out (過濾掉) fine particulate matter (微粒物). China is now the world's largest mask producer, making out half of the world's masks.

A.a modern fashionB.a kind of clothC.a pretty decorationD.a protective tool

2The first recorded use of protective masks was made of __________.

A.gauzeB.animal bladderC.clothD.chemicals

【題目】 Smarter than We Thought

It's a popular belief that fish can't remember anything for longer than seven seconds.

It may seem sad to think that they don't remember what they've eaten or where they've been, and they don't recognize you or any of their friendsevery moment in their lives would be like seeing the world for the first time.

But don't be so quick to feel sorry for them. A recent study has found that fish have much better memories than we used to think. In fact, certain kinds of fish can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago, BBC reported.

In the study, researchers from MacEwan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids to go to a certain area of their tank to get food. They then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again.

Researchers used computer software (軟件) to monitor the fish's movements. They found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food. This suggested that they could remember their past experiences.

In fact, scientists had been thinking for a long time that African cichlids might have a good memory.

An earlier study showed that they behaved aggressively (攻擊性地) in front of certain fish, perhaps because they remembered their past fights. But until the latest findings, there was no clear evidence (證據(jù)).

Just as a good memory can make our lives easier, it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to live in the wild.

"If fish are able to remember that a certain area has safe food, they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives in danger," lead researcher Trevor Hamilton told Live Science.

For a long time, fish were placed far below chimpanzees (黑猩猩), dolphins and mice on the list of smart animals. But this study has given scientists a new understanding of their intelligence(智力).

So next time you are watching your pet fish from outside the tank, perhaps you should feel closer to themthey may remember who you are.

1What is a popular belief about fish?

A.Fish can remember things for a very short time.

B.Fish can only remember part of their experiences.

C.Fish can remember things that happened 12 days ago.

D.Fish can remember things for longer than three minutes.

2According to the passage, fish can ________with a good memory.

A.know where to escape and keep safe

B.find their enemies and fight with them

C.remember where to get food and stay alive

D.recognize their friends and help each other

3What can we learn from the passage?

A.Our pet fish can surely remember who we are.

B.Fish are as clever as chimpanzees, dolphins and mice.

C.Clear evidence has shown certain fish can remember their past fights.

D.African cichlids can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago.

Are newspapers dying?

For years, it has been said that newspapers are at death’s door. Every year brings more news of closing. But why is the situation so __________ for newspapers?

Newspapers have a long history. The first newspaper was printed in the 1600s. The industry witnessed its most successful periods in the early 20th century.

With the appearance of radio and TV, however, newspaper circulation (發(fā)行量) began to fall. By the mid-20th century, radio and TV had become so popular that people no longer had to ______ newspapers for news. That was especially true of breaking news.

Afternoon newspapers were the first to suffer. People coming home from work increasingly turned on the TV, instead of opening a newspaper because TV could provide news that happened a short time ago. It’s true that newspapers couldn’t compete with TV on ______, but they could provide in-depth reports that TV news could not.

But newspapers suffered another, heavier blow (打擊) in the 1990s. With the appearance of the internet, large amounts of information became ______. Many newspaper readers realized that they could read news on the Internet. There seemed to be little reason to pay for a newspaper subscription (訂閱).

So what does the future hold? Will newspapers die? Maybe not. Many newspapers are now making ________. Some are going digital. Some are going farther and taking the industry to places it has never been to. After all, people still want the news. And many agree that newspapers are still an important source of in-depth news, analysis and opinions. If newspapers _________ completely, there will be nothing to take their place.

1A.excitingB.terribleC.attractiveD.bright
