21、Social network Facebook has announced that it is pausing work on Instagram Kids, a young people’s version of Instagram, the photo and video-sharing app that Facebook owns. Instagram Kids would have been for 10 to 12-year-olds, who cannot officially use Instagram because it has an age limit of 13.
However, Facebook has recently been criticized for the effect that Instagram can have on teenagers’ mental health, and in particular how girls feel about their bodies.
Facebook has since published its own research which suggests that Instagram more often has a positive effect. However, the criticism has made the company decide that now is a bad time to develop the app for people who are younger than teenagers.
Adam Mosseri, the boss of the Instagram, said that this would give the company time to listen to and work with parents, experts, public officials and politicians and to show that Instagram Kids would take into account concerns around the mental health and wellbeing of its users.
Instagram Kids has not been completely cancelled, but if it is eventually launched in the future, you’ll need a parent or guardian’s permission to sign up. There will be no advertisements and you will only be able to access “age-appropriate” photos and videos.
Mosseri said that he understood people’s worries about the project and that these steps should help the company to get things right. However, several US politicians have called on Instagram not to restart work on the app. “A pause is not enough,” said a statement from four politicians who are keenly opposed to Instagram Kids. “Facebook has completely given up the benefit of the doubt when it comes to protecting young people online and it must completely abandon this project,” the statement said.

【3】What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about?
A．Parents’ or guardians’ permission to sign up.
B．Facebook’s determination in pausing the app.

22、At times my mom has been uncomfortable seeing these qualities in me. For example，when I was 12，I went to Puerto Rico all by myself to stay with my grandmother for the summer. My mom was extremely nervous about it. She kept telling me how things were different in Puerto Rico（波多黎各），to always put on sunscreen（防晒霜），not to wander away from my grandmother，and other warnings. She helped me pack and did not leave the airport until she saw my plane take off.
But despite（尽管）her worries，she let me go on my own. As I moved into my teens，she continued to give me space to grow and learn，even when it might have been difficult for her. When I reached my senior year，I decided to move away for college. Once again I found that I differed from my peers（同龄人)：While many of them wanted to stay close to home，I couldn’t wait to be out in the world on my own. While my mom may not have been happy at the thought of my going away，she was supportive and excited for me.
One big thing I realized during my senior year，as my mom granted（允许） me more freedom，was that she actually believes in me and trusts me. That means a lot. Most of my life，and especially when I was little，the main person I tried to impress in my schoolwork or other things was my mother. I knew she expected nothing but the best from me. Sometimes it was hard to live up to her standards: getting a single B on my report card would make me feel bad because I knew she wanted me to have all A’s.
I know that her high standards have helped me stay focused on what’s important, like education，and made me who I am. I am thankful for her support and involvement in my life. Most of all I respect her. She is the strongest woman I know and that’s why I have turned out so strong and independent.

23、Can you be too beautiful? It is hardly a problem that most of us have to bother — as much as we might like to dream that it were the case.
Yet the blessings and curses of beauty have been a long-standing interest in psychology. Do those blessed with shiny faces and an attractive body live in a cloud of appreciation — or does it sometimes pay to be ordinary?
Combing through decades of findings, social psychologists Lisa Slattery Walker and Tonya Frevert at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte have reviewed all the evidence to date and their conclusions are not what you might expect.
At the most basic level, beauty might be thought to carry a kind of halo(光环) around it; we see that someone has one good quality, and by association, our deep mind may assume that they have other good ones too.
Even in the courts, a pleasing appearance can work its magic. Attractive criminals are likely to get less strict sentences, or to escape punishment entirely; attractive plaintiffs(原告), meanwhile, are more likely to win their case and get bigger financial settlements. “It’s an effect seen everywhere,” says Walker.
But if beauty pays in most circumstances, there are still situations where it can have opposite results. While attractive men may be considered better leaders, for instance, hidden sexist prejudices(偏见) can work against attractive women, making them less likely to be hired for high-level jobs that require power. And as you might expect, good-looking people of both sexes run into envy — one study found that if you are interviewed by someone of the same sex, they may be less likely to employ you if they judge that you are more attractive than they are.
More worryingly, being beautiful or handsome could harm your medical care. We tend to link good looks to health, meaning that illnesses are often taken less seriously when they affect the good-looking. When treating people for pain, for instance, doctors tend to take less care over the more attractive people.
And the bubble of beauty can be a somewhat lonely place. One study in 1975, for instance, found that people tend to move further away from a beautiful woman on the pathway — perhaps as a mark of respect, but still making interaction more distant. “Attractiveness can convey more power over visible space — but that in turn can make others feel they can’t approach that person,” says Frevert. Interestingly, the online dating website OKCupid recently reported that people with the most beautiful pictures are less likely to find dates than those with less perfect pictures.
Ultimately, Frevert points out that focusing too much on your appearance can itself be harmful if it creates stress and anxiety — even for those already blessed with good looks. “If you are crazy about attractiveness, it may affect your experience and interactions,” she says. It’s an outdated saying, but no amount of beauty can make up for a bad personality. As the writer Dorothy Parker put it so elegantly: “Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone.”
【1】From paragraph 1, we can learn that _______.
A. some may be bothered by their unattractive appearance
B. most people are not afraid of being too beautiful
C. we might always dream about being bothered by others
D. being too beautiful can be a problem bothering everyone
【2】Which is the benefit for beautiful people?
A. An attractive plaintiff has more chances to get away with punishment.
B. Women with pleasing appearance will always be considered as better leaders.
C. Good-looking people are often regarded as having many good qualities.
D. Beautiful criminals are more likely to persuade the judge and win the case.
【3】The writer mentioned the underlined sentence in the last paragraph to _______.
A. persuade us to pay more attention to our looks from now on
B. suggest that beauty can help make a better personality
C. encourage us to focus more on improving our personality
D. ask ugly people to have more confidence in their personality
【4】What might be the best title for the passage?
A. Negative Sides of Beauty B. Sexist Prejudice
C. Blessed with Beauty D. Beauty vs Ugliness
