21、 Though cell-phones are usually considered devices that connect people, they may make users less socially minded, which is found by a recent study from the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business.
Marketing professors Anastasiya Pocheptsova and Rosellina Ferraro, with graduate student, Ajay T.Abraham, conducted a series of experiments on test groups of cellphone users. The findings appear in their working paper, The Effect of Mobile Phone Use on Prosocial Behavior. Prosocial behavior, as defined in their report, is action intended to benefit another person or society as a whole.
The researchers found that after a short period of cellphone use the subjects were less likely to volunteer for a community service activity, compared to the control-group（对照组）. The cell phone users were also less persistent in solving word problems even though they knew their answers would contribute to a monetary（货币的）donation to charity.
The study involved separate groups of college student subjects - both men and women and generally in their early 20s. "We would expect similar effects with people from other age groups," said Ferraro. "Considering the popularity of cellphones, it does have the potential to have wide social effects."
The researchers use previous research to explain the cause of their findings: "The cellphone directly arouses feelings of connection with others, thus fulfilling the basic social need to belong." This results in reducing one’s desire to connect with others face-to-face or to engage in empathic (同情的) and prosocial behavior.
The study also distinguished its subjects from users of other social media — Facebook users — in one of the tests. The researchers found that participants felt more connected to others because of their cell-phones than because of their Facebook accounts, suggesting that this difference in connectedness was the underlying cause of the observed phenomenon.
【1】A person will conduct prosocial behavior when he ____.
A.is closely connected to his friends.
B.uses the cellphone for a period of time
C.takes part in community service
D.uses the cell phone a lot
【2】What makes Facebook users different from cellphone users?
A.Different accounts.
B.Different purposes.
C.Different human needs.
D.The difference in connection.
【3】Compared with cell phone users, Facebook users probably _____.
A.have a lot more friends
B.feel more connected to their friends
C.don’t like to engage in prosocial behavior at all
D.are more likely to engage in prosocial behavior
【4】Which could be the best title for the passage?
A.Cell Phone Use Has Broad Social Effects
B.Cell Phone Use Leads to Prosocial behavior
C.Cell Phone Use Is Linked to Selfish Behavior
D.The Harmful Effect of Cell Phone Use
22、Singapore’s tradition of eating out in places called Hawker centers is now recognized by the united Nations for its cultural importance. 【1】
A hawker is a person who sells food or goods and advertises by shouting at people walking by on the street. Hawkers are an important part of Singaporean culture. Open-air eating areas where hawkers sell their goods are very popular. Famous chefs, such as Anthony Bourdain and Gordon Ramsay have praised them. 【2】
On December 16, the United Nations’ cultural agency, UNESCO, added the city’s “hawker culture” to its Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Singapore sought to have hawker culture added to the list about two years ago.
Now that it has been recognized, Singapore must provide a report every six years to UNESCO. 【3】 “These centers serve as ‘community dining rooms’ where people from diverse backgrounds gather and share the experience of dining over breakfast, lunch and dinner,” UNESCO said.
In the 1970s, Singapore cleaned up its streets so the city moved street hawkers to new eating centers. 【4】 Now, the centers offer many different low-cost meals for local people and provide a pleasing social setting.
【5】 The average age of a hawker in Singapore is 60 years old. Younger Singaporeans now want to work in offices. They are less interested in working in small restaurants. The COVID-19 health crisis also hurt sales, making eating out unavailable for foreign visitors and local people.
A．And they appear in popular films like Crazy Rich Asians.
B．Singapore’s President Halimah Yacob posted the news on Facebook.
C．Here are our top hawker food centre picks and the best bites you simply have to try.
D．Hawker culture has shaped the Singaporean identity in many ways.
E．But Singapore’s hawker culture does face difficulties.
F．These areas were part of an effort to improve the island.
G．The report must show efforts that the city-state has made to save and support its hawker culture.
23、How to Survive a Human Stampede (踩踏)
In 2010, a tragic human stampede occurred during a festival in Phnom Penh. When thousands attempted to cross a bridge, it began to sway (摇摆), panic set in, and a rush to get off the bridge began. 347 people died in the rush.
What happened in Phnom Penh is an extreme example. 【1】. Getting caught in a stampede can be deadly if you don’t know what to do. With a little preparation and some strategies, you can avoid being one of the people who doesn’t make it out.
☆【2】
The best way to survive a human stampede is to evaluate your surroundings long before the stampede begins. For example, if you’re attending a large event, make sure you know where all the available exits are. In addition to identifying exit doors, be aware of alternative exits, like accessible windows.
☆Keep moving
Resisting the force of the crowd will only tire you out and conserving energy is critical to surviving a stampede. 【3】. Moving diagonally (斜形) with the flow of the crowd will bring you to the edge of the stampede where it’s less likely that you’ll end up stuck at a choke point.
☆Avoid choke points
Choke points are any space that restricts the flow of the stampede. Doorways, hallways, and bridges are all examples. While those narrow spaces lead to exits, they also represent the most dangerous places in a stampede. 【4】.
☆Look for non-obvious exits
Humans are creatures of habit. In most cases, people will rush for the same doorway or gate that they used to enter the venue. Thus, looking for non-obvious exits when you arrive somewhere is really important. 【5】. If you’re at an outdoor event, don’t hesitate to go over temporary barriers if it means you can escape the main flow of the stampede.
A．Be prepared
B．Identify exit doors
C．Remember to keep moving right after the crowd
D．However, human stampedes are by no means uncommon
E．If at all possible, avoid getting trapped near a choke point
F．But this doesn’t mean you should go in the exact direction of the crowd
G．Windows and fire exits are good things to look for when you’re inside a building
24、 Calculated every year by Global Footprint Network（GFN），Earth Overshoot Day（地球生态超载日）is the day when human has used up all the natural resources—produce,meat,fish,water and wood.This means we use up them ahead of time before the end of the year.
It is just like spending your entire years' money by August and then borrow money from friends,knowing fully well you cannot pay back. GFN says the same thing happens in the case of the earth."Because we give out more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than our oceans and forests can take in,and we harvest forests more quickly than they can regrow,"he said.
In a perfect world,we should only spend what we have.This means Earth Overshoot Day would fll on 31 December or perhaps in the following year. Unfortunately,the day has been climbing up quickly since 2014 when it fell on 19 August.In 2015,it was 13 August,and this year, the earliest so far—8 August!
According to GFN,Australia tops the list,with the United States coming in a close second.If the world's population started to live like either of these countries,we would need more resources to meet our needs.
Fortunately,experts say the situation isn't as bad as it sounds. Many countries have already taken measures to reduce carbon emissions（释放）by using wind or solar energy.People can also help by eating less meat, walking, cycling or taking public transportation,as well adopting the three Rs: Reduce,Reuse&Recycle.If we work together,we can help push back Earth Overshoot Day to December 31 or even beyond.
【1】How does the author explain Earth Overshoot Day?
A．By giving us some data.
B．By comparing it to personal money.
C．By describing the process of waste.
D．By introducing the present situation of the earth.
【2】Whats the experts' attitude towards the present situation of the earth according to the last paragraph?
A．Uncertain.
B．Negative.
C．Skeptical.
D．Positive.
【3】Which shows that we use natural resources best?
A．Earth Overshot Day falls on different days every year.
B．Earth Overshoot Day falls on 8 August.
C．Earth Overshoot Day falls on 31 December.
D．Earth Overshoot Day is put forward year by year.
【4】What's the purpose of calculating Earth Overshoot Day?
A．To warn people to plan for their future.
B．To tell people the importance of nature.
C．To teach people how to protect the earth.
D．To call on people to care about the earth.
