12. Is there a link between social media and depression Does social media have a negative impact on your mental health It's complicated.
In a recent study, the investigators compared social media use and depression among teens.
①________ Specifically, for every hour per day that one teen spent on social media more than his peers, he likely had a 0.64 point higher the depression score.
A different study published in 2018 identified five distinct types of social media users. The finding was that "problematic social media use" was one of the main themes for people whose mental health was affected by social media. You can have alcohol in your life without it being a problem, or your alcohol use may become problematic. ②________
There's one important thing to remember about survey research—two things happen together, and it's not necessarily true that one causes the other. ③________ For all we know, it could be that people who are already more depressed choose to spend more time on social media.
④________ If you think that we shouldn't paint social media with one broad brush, you're on the right track. On the one hand, participants often described social media as a valuable way to cope with stress. On the other hand, cyberbullying via social media was also a common experience for participants. Some also said that constantly checking their own social media profile was stressful.
It's certainly possible that experiences like cyberbullying, comparing yourself to idealized images, and constantly monitoring your profile, are bad for your mood. It's also true for many that social media offer community support and positive messages. Given the inconclusive research, it's safe to say that at least we shouldn't write off social media altogether. ⑤________ Anyway, you cannot use it as a crutch for coping with other stressors and mental health problems.
A. The same is true of social media.
B. Social media can be a double-edged sword.
C. People get more opinionated about the potential problems of social media.
D. They found that those who used social media more had higher depression scores.
E. They reviewed all existing research and found that there were both benefits and drawbacks.
F. The key to benefiting from social media may lie in using them in moderation and staying socially connected.
G. For example, it doesn't mean social media use causes depression just because higher social media use co-occurs with higher levels of depression.

12. As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory—your brain Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know whether the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive (交互) memory".
According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memory as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memory; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
1.The passage begins with two questions to ________.
A.introduce the main topic B.show the author's attitude
C.describe how to use the Internet D.explain how to store information
2.What can we learn about the first experiment
A.Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.
B.The two groups remembered the information equally well.
C.The first group did not try to remember the information.
D.The second group did not understand the information.
3.In transactive memory, people _______.
A.keep the information in mind B.change the quantity of information
C.organize information like a computer D.remember how to find the information
4.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research
A.We are using memory differently. B.We are becoming more intelligent.
C.We have poorer memory than before. D.We need a better way to access information.

11.答案：①-⑤ FDGEB
解析：①第一段第一句提到"In our fast world of phones, fax machines and computers", 电话、传真机和电脑都是人与人沟通的方式,且该段最后一句提到作者很享受收到信、看到收信人并且享受信的内容,结合前后文的内容,作者偏爱写信这一与其他沟通方式不同的传统艺术。F项"Yet, to me, receiving a letter cannot be matched by any form of communication"(然而,对我来说,任何形式的沟通方式也不能与收到一封信的感觉相匹配)中提到的"any form of communication"即指代第一句中出现的电话、传真、电脑等交流方式。F项起承上启下的作用。故选F。
②第二段第一、二句提到从开始记事起写信就是作者生活中的一部分了,而且作者的妈妈也会在圣诞节和生日的时候给作者写信。D项提到"It didn't matter how short or untidy they were as long as they were letters"(只要是字母,无论长短或是凌乱都不重要),根据前文可知,作者从很小可能都不会写字的时候就开始写信,有可能字迹非常潦草,但真正重要的是作者家中写作这一传统。D项起总结上文的作用。故选D。
③第三段第二句提到"Occasionally my father would write and it was always a joy to receive his long, amusing letters",作者有时候也会收到父亲写的长长的、有趣的信。G项"The letters from him contained just everyday events concerning my parents and their friends"(他的信件只包含有关父母和他们朋友之间的日常)中提到的him指代的是前文中"my father"。G项起承上启下的作用。故选G。
④第四段最后一句提到"I found that I could often express myself more easily in writing than by talking", 作者认为写信比说话更容易表达自己。第四段开头提到作者和男朋友年轻的时候分开工作或学习,只能通过信件联系,且该段最后提到作者觉得通过书信的形式更容易表达自己。由此说明作者通过书信的方式改善了和男朋友之间的关系。E项"But instead of harming the relationship, letter writing seemed to improve them"(但是,写信并没有损害这种关系,反而改善了这种关系)起承上启下的作用。故选E。
⑤最后一段第二、三句提到"Like my mother before me, I insist they write their own thank-you letters. My daughter writes to me little letters, just as I did to my mother", 作者也会像她妈妈一样要求自己的孩子写感谢信,就像作者小时候与她妈妈做的那样。由此可知,作者在拥有了自己的孩子后仍然保持着这个传统。B项"I am pleased that my children are carrying on the tradition"(我很高兴我的孩子也继承发扬着这个传统)为此段的中心句。故选B。
12.答案：1-4.ACDA
解析：1.推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.可知,作者开头使用两个问句是为了引出要讨论的主要话题。故选A。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.可知第一组没有努力记住信息。又根据第二段的Later, the second group remembered the information better.可知第二组比第一组记得更好,但未提第二组是否理解这些信息,因此可以判断D项错误。结合以上两点又可以判断B项错误。把信息录入电脑是参与实验者做的,而不是研究团队,因此A项错误。故选C。
3.细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive(交互)memory".可知,在交互记忆里,人们记得怎样找到信息。A、B、C三项信息与原文不符。故选D。
4.细节理解题。根据最后一段可知,互联网对人们的记忆产生的影响是它改变了我们使用记忆力的方式,而不是我们正变得更聪明,也不是我们记忆力比以前差了,因此可以排除B、C两项,而D项与实验目的和结果不符。故选A

12. One day a man found a cocoon (茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could go no further. So the man decided to help the butterfly.
He took a pair of scissors and cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. Much to his surprise, the butterfly got a swollen body but very small, weak wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would enlarge and be able to support the body. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. The struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening was God's way of forcing fluid (流体)from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been. And we could never fly.
1. In the first paragraph the butterfly was _____.
A. flying in the forest
B. playing with the man
C. making a cocoon for itself
D. trying to get out of the cocoon
2. What would have happened to the butterfly without the man's help
A. The butterfly would come out easily.
B. The butterfly could crawl on its wings.
C. The butterfly would have got to prepared to fly.
D. The butterfly would never gain its freedom.
3. What can we learn from the story
A. Warm-hearted people are always around us.
B. Struggles are necessary in our life sometimes.
C. Helping others could make oneself happy.
D. Where there is a will, there is a way.
4. What is the best title for the story
A. The struggle for freedom B. A kind man
C. The joy of helping a butterfly D. A lucky butterfly

解析：本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一款可以和智能手机连接在一起,用于追踪人或东西的软件。
1.词义猜测题。根据第一段中的"Then you start wandering around and clicking on the panic button on your car keys so the alarm goes off. It can be frustrating, especially on a hot and sunny day."可知按下汽车钥匙上的报警按钮让警报器鸣响,尤其是在炎热晴朗的天气下,让人非常烦恼。由此推知frustrating意为"令人沮丧的"。故选A。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段可知GPS很贵,现在有一种设备不会花费很多钱,即TrackR Bravo,因此它会是一个更好的选择。故选B。
3.细节理解题。由文章倒数第二段第一句"You can connect it to your keys, briefcase, wallet, your latest tech gadgets and anything else you don't want to lose."可知TrackR Bravo可以和不同的东西连接在一起。故选D。

12.答案：1-4 DCBA
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的"the butterfly struggled to force its body through that little hole"可知,蝴蝶正在努力地破苗。故选D。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段中的"the butterfly to get through the tiny opening was God's way of forcing fluid (流体) from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon"可知,蝴蝶破茧是长出翅膀的必经之路,如果没有男人的帮助蝴蝶会通过小孔破茧长出翅膀,会飞向天空,但男人帮助它之后破坏了它的生长规律,它的翅膀没有发育完整,不能飞翔了。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段中"Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life"可知,斗争在我们生活中是必要的。故选B。
4.主旨大意题。由文章最后两段可知本文主要讲述了为自由做斗争的意义。故选A。

11.Technology has some wonderful benefits. I would never ever argue against the responsible use of it.①_____ For example, it's reported that 84% of cell phone users think they could not go a single day without their device. But technology does have a power-off button. We can try the helpful tips to power-down technology.
Power down for one period of time each day. This may be the first hour of the day. Or maybe the last hour of the day works better for you, or maybe lunch, dinner, or the hours just before your kids go to bed. ②_____ What matters is your determination to turn off your phone and that you stick to it at all costs.
Better manage the time-wasters. ③_____ Freedom will disable your entire Internet connection for a time period set by you. Selfcontrol will allow you to block access to uniquely specified websites, such as Facebook, Gmail, and Twitter for a period of time, but still have access to the rest of the web.
④_____ I have chosen some time each year to power down unnecessary apps and have a good rest, leaving only phone. And I have completed the exercise each of the last two years. I have found great value in doing this. ⑤_____
Learning to power down technology is an important life skill with many benefits. But it is becoming a lost art in our ever-connected world. So my friends, let's get started right away on digital minimalism(极简主义). Your life is waiting for you.
A. Technology addiction is powerful.
B. Take an extended break on a regular basis.
C. Give yourself good reasons to power down.

They have clear goals. All top-performing students have definite, specific goals. ③_____.They motivate you and drive you to study more. But make sure that you do not get carried away. Set realistic goals which can challenge you, but do not seem impossible or too difficult to achieve.
They study without pressure. Successful students study a lot. But they study without putting strain on themselves. Most students make the mistake of studying too hard or studying continuously for a long time. ④_____. Studying should be done in a balanced manner. Take a break for a few minutes, after studying for 30 or 45 minutes. Relax, walk around your room or house, or drink some water and return to studying. Such short breaks will refresh your brain and you will learn more.
⑤_____. Studying is not something you do just because your parents ask you to do it. It's actually very important for you. Studying gives you knowledge and skills that will remain with you for the rest of your life. It gives you the ability to get a job and earn money. And successful students recognize the value of studying well.
A. This creates tension and actually slows down learning and memory.
B.But to score grade A in English, you should make well planned efforts.

解析：①根据上文"I would never ever argue against the responsible use of it.(我永远不会反对负责任地使用它。)"可知，作者并不反对使用科技，根据下文"For example, it's reported that 84% of cell phone users think they could not go a single day without their device.(例如,据报道，84%的手机用户认为没有手机他们一天都过不下去。）"可知，下文举例说明了人们对于科技的依赖，由此推知设空处应陈述人们沉迷于科技。F项"然而，人们越来越沉迷于我们的科技。"符合上下文逻辑。故选F。
②根据上文"Or maybe the last hour of the day works better for you, or maybe lunch, dinner, or the hours just before your kids go to bed.(或者一天的最后一个小时对你更好，或者午餐、晚餐，或者孩子们睡觉前的几个小时。）"和下文"What matters is your determination to turn off your phone and that you stick to it at all costs.(重要的是你决心关掉手机，并且不惜一切代价坚持。)"可知，设空处可能陈述关掉手机的时间不重要，关键是决心。D项"一天中（关掉手机）的具体时间并不重要。"符合语境。故选D。
③根据本段主旨句"Better manage the time-wasters.(要更好地管理会浪费时间的东西。)"和下文"Freedom will disable your entire Internet connection for a time period set by you. Selfcontrol will allow you to block access to uniquely specified websites, such as Facebook, Gmail, and Twitter for a period of time, but still have access to the rest of the web.(Freedom将在您设置的时间段内禁用您的整个互联网连接。Selfcontrol将在一段时间内阻止您访问唯一明确规定的网站，如Facebook、Gmail和Twitter，但仍然可以访问网站的其余部分。）"可推知，设空处可能陈述选择一些可以更好管理人们网络时间的工具。G项"选择一些互联网工具，可以帮助你更好地管理你的在线时间。"符合语境，下文是对选项内容的举例说明，选项中的manage呼应主旨句中的manage。故选G。
④设空处为本段主旨句。根据下文"I have chosen some time each year to power down unnecessary apps and have a good rest, leaving only phone. And I have completed the exercise each of the last two years.(我每年都会选择一些时间关闭不必要的应用程序，好好休息，只留下手机。我在过去两年里一直在完成这样的练习。）"可知，本段作者的建议是定期休息一段时间。B项"定期休息一段较长的时间。"可以作为本段主旨句。故选B。
⑤设空处位于段末，应承接上文。根据上文"And I have completed the exercise each of the last two years. I have found great value in doing this.(我在过去两年里一直在完成这样的练习。我发现这样做非常有价值。）"可推知，设空处应承接上文继续陈述这样做的价值是什么。E项"它教会了我技术、关系和我自己。"符合语境。故选E。
12.答案：①-⑤ ECDAG
解析：①根据上文 "Successful students use different techniques to study, which brings them more success"可知,学习他们的技巧,你将会加入他们的行列,符合语境。故选E。

④根据上文"Most students make the mistake of studying too hard or studying continuously for a long time"可知,这会产生出紧张,会让你学习和记忆力变慢,符合语境。故选A。
