21、Social media has completely taken over everyday life, affecting how society runs and changing individuals in ways that even they can feel. While social media can act as a platform for people to express themselves, it can also be overwhelming, especially for high school teens.

To teenager Bryson Lan, deleting social media helped eliminate a significant distraction in his routine and keep up with teachers. “I was scrolling (滚动) through social networking sites so much,” Lan said. “I was also starting to struggle since I entered my high school year. When school started, I was super overwhelmed (不知所措的), and I was just not ready for it.

Most teenagers fear that by eliminating these apps, they will miss out on connections with their peers and feel a significant loss to their social life. However, Lan found he didn’t miss anything during his time without social media.

Another problem with social media is the amount of “junk content” posted. People are regularly posting and updating on social media, and much of the content has no meaning to other viewers and is ultimately a time suck.

However, social media isn’t all negative. Social media can be a place to develop passions and boost creativity. For example, Lan found his interest in photography blossom after seeing works from other photographers on social media. “Social media is a good place where you can have a portfolio (作品集) or upload your works,” Lan said. “A lot of people have photography accounts or art accounts. In some ways, I think it actually furthers your hobby.”

The vast audience that social media can reach brings convenience and effectiveness in the spread of art. Although some people might be discouraged by other artists’ impressive works, Lan is inspired to produce better photographs.

“Thanks to this revolutionary development of social media, we can enjoy a world where everyone is closer than before,” Lan said. “But we also need to have the skills to make good use of social media, and that depends on each person’s efforts.”

【1】What did getting rid of social media bring Lan?

A．More distractions.

B．Confusion about life.

C．A smaller social circle.

D．More attention on his studies.

【2】What does the underlined phrase “a time suck” in paragraph 4 mean?

A．A waste of time.

B．A timetable.

C．A lack of time.

D．A time switch.

【3】What’s Lan’s attitude towards social media?

A．Doubtful.

B．Unclear.

C．Objective.

D．Supportive.

【4】What’s the main idea of the text?

A．Most teenagers’ opinions on social media.

B．The effects social media has on teenagers.

C．Innovative development of social media.

D．The problems social media brings people.

23、We have long been attracted by quick fixes that could increase our intelligence. Today, people’s hopes lie in brain training apps, some of which claim to result in “smarter minds”. But is this quick fix all it is said to be?

There are plenty of brain training apps, but they all share the same characteristics: they turn mental exercises like simple arithmetic (算术)，memory tests and logic and pattern-matching problems into quick games. The more you play these mini-games, the smarter you will get-or so some apps tell us. It is really a big promise.

Many of the apps say they are beaked by “science”, a claim I found surprising as a former neuroscientist. The concept that increasing intelligence would be as simple as practicing a few mini-games every day flies in the face of what we have discovered about how humans think and learn.

After surveying a diverse spread of thousands of users across a wide variety of apps, researchers at Western University in Canada discovered that “brain training has no appreciable effect on cognitive (认知的) functioning in the “real world”，even after extensive training periods”. The positive effects that have been found are restricted to the very specific mini-games and tasks that users ‘are trained on, such as the ability to memorize lists of words or numbers, or perform mental arithmetic, with little benefit to other skills.

If you are expecting them to improve your ability to write a novel or construct a complex spreadsheet. I am afraid you will want to look elsewhere.

Puzzle video games such as “Baba Is You” and “Return of the Obra Dinn”, see players apply their skill at logic, memory and concentration in a far more complex way than any brain training mini-game.

【1】What does the author say about brain training apps?

A．They have scientific support.

B．They work in the form of games.

C．They require problem-solving skills.

D．They are based on complex arithmetic.

【2】What does the underlined part “flies in the face of” in paragraph 3 mean?

A．Agrees with.

B．Takes advantage of.

C．Goes against.

D．Comes from.

【3】Which best describes the effects that brain training apps have on memory?

A．Limited.

B．Indirect.

C．Damaging.

D．Far-reaching

【4】What is the author’s attitude to “Baba Is You”?

A．Doubtful.

B．Intolerant.

C．Uninterested.

D．Favorable.

24、   Peking Opera is being introduced to primary and middle school students in an effort to promote the traditional art to the younger generation.
