22、Have you ever loved a TV show? I mean really loved it? The unresolved situation at the end of the episode can make you want to watch the next one. But, when will the next one be?
In the past, viewers had to wait up to a week for the next episode of their favourite shows. But, that's not the case any more. And hand in hand with that comes a possibly dangerous, growing social trend. We speak of binge-watching.
Binge-watching is when a person watches more than one episode of a show for a long time without a stop. With developments in the speed and connectivity of the Internet, increases in technology and the rise of on-demand entertainment companies, people can now have their favourite shows played directly on their television at their convenience. Once the episode finishes, many platforms will display pop-ups with "you might like" suggestions, or will play the next episode by itself.
However, this may in fact be harmful. Recent research from British media supervisory body Ofcom suggests that this behaviour may have become a problem. Out of the more than half of British adults who watch more than one episode of a show back to back, almost a third have admitted missing sleep or becoming tired as a result, and one quarter have forgotten to do their household chores. Next we'll be missing work!
Bingeing has other connections-binge-eating, binge-drinking and binge-smoking, all of which are often associated with compulsive behaviour, a lack of control and a possible way to addiction. Lindsey Fussell, consumer group director at Ofcom, said, “The days of waiting a week for the next episode are largely gone, with people finding it hard to resist watching episodes around the house or on the move.” If people find binge-watching hard to refuse and it has led to ignorance, are we witnessing the birth of a new type of addiction?
The large amount of information and entertainment that television and online media can bring us is, many would say, a good thing. However, it can become dangerous. And when the activity begins to spread to other areas, causing us to stop functioning, it becomes a problem. So, what's the answer? Moderation! Neither a tiny amount, nor too much. After all, as the old saying goes, “ ________ ”.
【1】What does the underlined word “trend” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Viewers are growing more and more impatient.
B.Viewers want to socialize with their coworkers.
C.Viewers tend to watch TV episodes continuously.
D.Viewers feel like chatting with other fans.
【2】The following lead to binge-watching except________ according to the passage.
A.the fast Internet with good connection
B.people's interest in social media
C.development of modern technology
D.encouragement of entertainment companies
【3】Which saying best fits the blank in the last paragraph?
A.A little of what you fancy does you good.
B.The early bird catches the worm.
C.Every dog has its day.
D.All that glitters is not gold.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Does binge-watching bring benefit to companies?
B.Is binge-watching becoming a new addiction?
C.Why is binge-watching popular with viewers?
D.How can you avoid binge-watching?
23、During a career planning class, Brenda Fabian asked how many students use Facebook, a popular online networking community for college students. Almost everyone in the room raised a hand.“Then I asked how many knew that employers are reviewing Facebook for hiring purposes,”says Fabian,director for Center for Career Services at Susquehanna University.“No hands were raised, and their faces revealed the students' surprise.”
Although some parents do keep track of their teen's online activities,most teenagers don't realize that websites may be monitored by schools,prospective(未来的) employers or anyone else who might be interested in the teenager's lifestyle not just today but anytime in the future.
Most of us don't realize that the information that gets posted on the Internet may be deleted,but it doesn't disappear permanently.“The stuff is there forever,”says Jamie Riehle,director of Web Publishing at Lycos.“It is backed up (备份) on servers and doesn't go away.”
As company recruiters,college admission officers,law enforcement personnel and parents become more Web savvy (有见识的),it becomes even more vital for teenagers to be cautious when posting any information on their websites. Even though sites that are private can be seen only by a preselected list of friends,there are companies that,for a fee,can dig deeper into cyberspace(网络空间) and find anything. Even government officials who thought that deleting email would exonerate(宣布……无罪) them from wrongdoing are discovering that,on the Web,there is no such thing as private or gone forever.
Steven Rothenberg,president and founder of College-Recruiter.com,suggests that teenagers think of their Web posts as tattoos(纹身). “Inherently(内在地),there is nothing wrong with them if they are private,”he says.“But if they are visible or offensive, it can affect the way others see you.”
【1】The information posted on the Internet ________.
A.can be deleted easily
B.can't be deleted completely
C.usually falls in the hands of employers
D.remains for a long time
【2】What do we know about sites that are private?
A.They are owned by some companies.
B.They charge people for viewing them.
C.They can keep the information a secret.
D.They are not so private as supposed.
【3】The second paragraph implies that ________.
A.one who posts negative things may have their employment affected
B.a teenager should not write about his lifestyle online
C.it's hard for parents to keep track of their teen's online activities
D.the Internet is becoming more insecure
【4】Steven Rothenberg believes that ________.
A.teenagers should not be allowed to post anything online
B.teenagers should keep their information private online
C.teenagers should be cautious about their posts online
D.teenagers should be monitored online
24、A remote hospital in an area of Bangladesh has been named the world’s best new building. The Friendship Hospital in Satkhira was announced winner of 2021’s impressive RIBA International Prize on Tuesday, with its architects (建筑师) praised for putting “care and humanity at the heart of its design”.
RIBA (the Royal Institute of British Architects), which organizes the award, praised the hospital’s design for fitting in with the surrounding countryside and creating an “uplifting and inviting experience for visitors, patients and healthcare professionals”.
Constructed from locally-made materials, the 80-bed hospital was built around a series of courtyards lined with shaded walkways, which encourages natural ventilation (通风) and rules out the need for air conditioning. And a canal cuts through the center of the site to separate inpatient and outpatient wings, helping with “micro climatic cooling” during hot Bangladesh summers. The architects also created a drainage (排水) system that channels rainwater into a storage tank for future use and prevents the courtyards from being flooded with water. Kashef Chowdhury, the lead architect, described honoring such a project from a little- known place as an important moment. “This may inspire more of us to devote limited resources and means to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature,” he said in a press statement.
Held every two years, the prize honors buildings or structures that “demonstrate design excellence and social impact”. In a press release announcing the winner, RIBA noted that the Friendship Hospital was built in a “friendly environment”, where grain fields have been turned into sea-food farms due to rising sea levels.
“It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively limited budget,” the chairman said. “The hospital is a celebration of a building contributed to humans.”
【1】Which of the following disagrees with the hospital’s design concept?
A.Caring for people.
B.Using local resources.
C.Adopting high technology.
D.Maintaining harmony with its environment.
【2】What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about concerning the hospital?
A.The storage of rainwater.
B.The flood control measures.
C.The air conditioning system.
D.The sustainable design features.
【3】How did Kashef sound in his press statement?
A.Encouraged.
B.Concerned.
C.Disappointed.
D.Relaxed.
【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.The Structure and System of Bangladesh Hospital
B.Bangladesh Hospital Named World's Best New Building
C.Kashef Chowdhury: The Designer of Bangladesh Hospital
D.The Royal Institute of British Architects Organized an Award

26、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
At noon on a brilliant Tuesday in March, my 12-year-old son Kai and I are a mile and a half into a four-day, 27-mile walk through the Grand Canyon—his first backpacking trip — when he asks: “Are we almost to camp?”
Um, no. Camp, at Hermit Creek, is seven miles and nearly 2,500 feet below, which will take us several more hours. We’re going down a poorly maintained path off the canyon, across which we can see many of the canyon’s layers. This is on display in cliffs hundreds of feet tall, a reminder of how far we have to go.
We are here largely because of a birthday note Kai wrote me two years ago in which he declared, “You used to be a wild 10-year-old like me and now you’re a wild 53-year-old. We can do so many things together! I am excited for when I’m old enough for the Grand Canyon!”
There are, I suppose, dads who could resist that, just as there are fathers who would plan an experience-appropriate trip for their sons. I am neither, so here we are. Never mind that; aside from simply being 12, Kai has done almost nothing to physically prepare for this. Or that I haven’t backpacked for 13 years.
We head on past twisty trees and brush. Soon the view broadens, and the layers grow deeper, down to the shadowy, 1.8 billion-year-old Vishnu, a panorama(全景) that leaves Kai excited. “This place is amazing,” he says.
Nightfall in the canyon can be magical. Darkness surrounds us, pressed by cool air. We navigate a narrow path to the stream and, hearing the sound of a waterfall, lie down to take in the stars. Twice I suggest we turn in. “Not yet,” Kai says. “This is too unbelievable.”
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;

The last day’s plan is to travel the three miles to the Colorado River, which is the most challenging.
