So many things can keep you from seeing your loved ones in person from busy schedules to
long distances to a rather unexpected COVID19 virus Fortunately thanks to modern technology
the people we miss are often only a phone Call or text message away But if you' re someone who prefers to type out messages you may want to reconsider A new study published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology found that communication that included voice like a phone call or video chat created stronger social relationships than communication through typing like text messaging or email
In the study researchers used various experiments to measure relationships In one they asked 200 people what it would be like to reconnect with an old friend by email or by phone and then asked them to do one or the other Although people anticipated that a phone call would be more awkward hearing someone's voice actually made the experience better
People reported they did form a stronger relationship with their old friend on the phone compared with email and they did not feel more awkward said Amit Kumar an assistant professor of marketing at the McCombs School of Business
In another experiment the researchers bad strangers connected by either texting talking over video chat or talking using only audio They found that both forms of voice communicationwhether video or audio onlymade the strangers feel significantly more connected than when they communicated by text
Sabrina Romanoff a Harvard psychologist says people tend t0 text or email instead of calling because of convenience as they see it as a controlled form of communication where they can communicate information exactly in the way they want without unexpected additions by the
other person
Romanoff says that in reality texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation A phone call is actually more convenient when considering the pet effects of the message she explains Each party is more present and therefore able to understand the meaning behind the content without thinking about the endless possible meanings behind words
24 What does the passage mainly tell us
A Texting does harm to social relationships
B Voice communication brings people closer
CA phone call does more good than a text message
D People prefer a text message rather than a phone call
25 How did the researchers carry out the study
A By comparing B By reasoning C By imagining D By discussing
26 What does the underlined word anticipated in Paragraph 2 mean
A Ensured B Refused C Expected D Disagreed
27 People prefer to text rather than call because they think_________
A texting makes them feel more connected
B they feel awkward when making a phone call
C texting helps communicate their information exactly
D calling helps determine the true meaning behind the conversation
C
Next time you watch videos in high resolution(分辨率) pause for thought Your decision may be having an unnecessary impact on the environment
Watching videos on a smartphone in high resolution produces eight times as much carbon as viewing in standard definition according to a report from the Royal Society It adds that the difference in resolution is unlikely to be noticed on small screens anyway and suggests that the users should make a sensible choice in some circumstances
Avoiding streaming(播放视频) in unnecessarily high resolution will help reduce emissions(排放)the report says Platforms and regulators should consider limiting streaming
resolution It recommends that as part of a moveresponsible streaming video should be turned of for many YouTube users who are only listening to the content A previous study found that such a move could save between I per cent and 5 per cent of YouTube's total emissions
The authors do not calculate how much a person's carbon footprint(碳足迹) would be reduced by watching videos in lower resolution However they admitted that digital technology also plays a significant role in reducing emissions such as by enabling people to communicate virtually rather than travel tomeet face to faceDigital technology lets us do things differently and it has huge Potential to help reducing emissions if used responsibly said Adrian Friday professor from the University of Lancaster who is a member of the working group for the report
Using laptops tablets smart TVs and other devices for longer before upgrading will also reduce emissions the report saysProtecting and repairing phones is good practice to help keep
them longer Getting a phone or other device secondhand or passing it on and sharing equipment are other good ways
28 What's the disadvantage of the highresolution device according to this passage
A It can't be upgraded in time BIt requires a larger screen
C It may not benefit the environment D It functions rather slowly
29 Which of the following moves is relatively environmentally friendly
A Replacing old laptops frequently B Travelling to meet face to face
C Sharing equipment with others D Streaming in high resolution
30 What Adrian Friday said tells us that________
A communicating virtually is totally impractical
B YouTube is a popular platform around the word
C digital technology has more disadvantages than advantages
D digital technology should be used reasonably
31 In which part of a magazine can this passage most likely be found
A Art & Culture B Science & Tech C Entertainment D Economy
D
Christmas at my house meant colorful decorations candles in every window homemade dinners by Mom and her matching red coat I always believed that someday my own kids would gather here and enjoy the traditions that had been passed down each December
Life had other plans Mom found breast cancer in 2006 and died three years later Three years after her death I made my yearly trip to my childhood home for Christmas with my dad and sister When I hunted for Christmas decorations up in the attic an unusual yellow envelope caught my eye Inside was a never published children's book by Mom dated February 10 1993 It was titled The Evil Stepmother (Who Wasn’t) It's the story of a little girl who loses her mother to cancer Her father soon remarries and at Christmas the girl returns home to find her stepmother crying with a woman's photograph in her hands The stepmother says that she lost her mother too and always misses her most at Christmas
I read Mom's book and wondered why she had been moved to write it She was years away from her cancer at the time But there was no stepmother in our lives So I put the book away found the decorations I came for and forgot about Mom's book quickly
Without the home that had been full of so many memories I didn't celebrate Christmas any
more I began to avoid the holiday music and even for a while the color red
That changed in December 2017 Dad brought a woman to Christmas unexpectedly When we first met we hugged each other shyly Soon she had Dad and me laughing It was going so well The three of us went out to pick out gifts That's when While Christmas began to play over
the store's speakers I froze It was the song Mom sang to me as a child to get me to sleep Tears streamed down my face
We got home and 1 went to my room to calm down There was a knock on the door Dad's girlfriend She told me that Christmas was hard for her too and that she had lost her mother to Alzheimer's
Do you see my coat she asked It was my mom's Your dad tells me your mother had a red coat too Maybe we can wear them together sometime
I remembered the scene from Mom 's book and hugged this woman who made my dad happy who was offering us a second chance at Christmas
A year later my sister and I attended Dad's wedding This past December I hosted my first Christmas in New York My stepmother and I decorated the house candles in every window We walked arm in arm down Broadway in our mothers' red coats
32 What is the first paragraph mainly about

Some people are so rude Who sends an email or a text message that just says Thank you Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you Who asks for a fact easily found on the Internet_ 36_
Maybe I'm the rude one for not appreciating life's little courtesies (礼节) But many social norms (规范) just don't make sense to people drowning in digital communication
Take the thankyou note Daniel Post Senning a coauthor of Emily Post's Etiquette asked At what point does showing appreciation outweigh the cost
_37_Think of how long it takes to listen to one of those messages In texts you don't have to declare who you are or even say hello Email too is slower than a text The worst are those who leave a voice mail and then send an email message to tell you they left a voice mail
This isn't the first time technology has changed our manners_ 38___ Alexander Graham Bell the inventor suggested that people say Ahoy Finally hello won out and the victory sped up the greeting's use in facetoface communications
In the age of the smart phone there is no reason to ask onceacceptable questions about the weather forecast a business's phone number or directions to a house a restaurant or an office which can be easily found on a digital map_ 39__ And when you answer they respond with a thankyou email
How to handle these differing standards Easy Consider your audience Some people especially older ones appreciate a thankyou message_40_In traditional societies the young learn from the old But in modern societies the old can also learn from the young Here's hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that timewasting forms of communication do
A Then there is voice mail
B Others like me want no reply
C But people still ask these things
D Don't these people realize that they're wasting your time
E Won't new technology bring about changes in our daily life
