9、hat MomentsWe all know the feelingyou want to check what someone you care about has been up to on social media, and suddenly you find you are denied access to their feeds. Its an instant start of mixed emotions and speculations - when did this happen? Did I do anything wrong? What are they attemptin

10、g to hide from me?And thats what half of Chinese parents have to deal with when they try to browse their childrens WeChat Moments, also known as Friends Circle, as suggested by a recent survey released by Tencent, the Chinese Internet giant. According to the report, entitled Annual White Paper on Fa

11、mily Affection on WeChat Moments, about 52 percent of WeChat users aged 18 to 29 block their parents on Moments, a major feature on the platform that allows users to share everything they like with their WeChat contacts.About 62 percent of the young interviewees said that parents are neurotic about

12、everything, along with reasons such as fear of parents disapproval, rejection to parents nagging(唠叨), and seeking privacy. My parents dont know Moments very well, so I just told them I dont use it anymore, said Qin Jianping, a 28-year-old. He added that his parents had been leaving comments requesti

13、ng updates on his dating status on every post he made on Moments since he broke up with his girlfriend two years ago. Xie Yun, a 26-year-old, said that while she didnt block her parents entirely, they were in a specific group to which she only shares positive posts. I dont want my parents to see min

14、or setbacks in my life, she said, adding that once her parents saw a Moments picture of her hand getting slightly burned while cooking, and they traveled all the way to her city to make sure she was all right.The report also found that more than 49 percent of Chinese parents use WeChat as a main cha

15、nnel to communicate with their children. Roughly 36 percent of the parents who took the survey said they checked every post made by their children. When asked how they would react to being blocked, some parents said they would initiate a conversation with their children to find out the reason, while

16、 others said they wouldnt care. And some parents just outsmart their kids in this hide-and-seek game online. I didnt realize I was blocked until I compared what I could see on my phone to what my sons aunt could see, said Chen, a mother of a 27-year-old son. I chose to remain silent on this and now

17、Im following my sons posts through his aunt. 24. Parents would like to read their childrens WeChat Moments because they _.A. are too emotional and speculative B. want to keep up with the trend of timeC. leave a lot of comments on their feeds D. are concerned about their childrens lives25. The childr

18、en block their parents to _.A. protect their privacy B. learn from parents naggingC. challenge parental authority D. maintain a positive state26. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. Parents exchange ideas with their kids on the hide-and-seek game.B. Parents are clever enough to win the hide-an

19、d-seek game.C. Parents learn more knowledge from their kids in the hide-and-seek game.D. Parents have a better understanding of their children.27. The author looks into parents being blocked to _.A. criticize parents B. support student C. analyze a phenomenon D. demand readersCReflecting (深思) is a s

20、pecial kind of thinking. In the first-place, its both active and controlled. When ideas pass aimlessly through your head, that is not reflecting. When someone tells you a story and suddenly makes you remember something that happened to you, that is not reflecting either. Reflecting means focusing yo

21、ur attention. It means weighing, considering, and choosing. Suppose youre going home, and when you get there, you turn the knob (门的球形把手), the door opens and you step in. Getting into your home does not require reflection. But now suppose that when you turn the knob, the door does not open. To get in

22、to the house, some reflecting is in order. You have to think about what you are going to do. You have to imagine possibilities and consider choices.The second way that reflecting is different from some other kinds of thinking is that its persistent（连续的）. It requires continuous effort. Suppose youre

23、still trying to get through your front door. You check your pocket for the key. You walk around the house looking for an open window. You go to a phone to call a family member who has a key. Such behaviour is proof of persistent reflective thinking. And if someone asks you what you are doing, you ma

24、y say that you are trying to figure out how to get into your house. But suppose, instead, you go to a nearby record store and look through the new records. If someone asks you what you are doing and you say that you are trying to figure out how to get into your house, that will not make sense. You a

25、re only reflecting as long as you stick to the problem or task.The third way that reflecting is different from some other kinds of thinking is that its careful. It aims at making sense. That doesnt mean that reflecting cannot be imaginative. A great deal of reflection could go into writing a science

26、-fiction story about people who can move through solid objects. The ability to walk through walls could make sense in a science-fiction story. But it wouldnt make much sense in trying to get through your locked front door. Such imagining would be a kind of thinking, but it would not be reflection.28

27、.According to the passage, reflecting is _.A. not a kind of thinking but an actionB. giving all your attention to figuring out somethingC bringing to mind something that happened to youD letting ideas pass quickly through your head29.If you dont take your key with you from work, which of the followi

28、ng does not show reflecting?A. You go through the open windowB You telephone your family memberC. You go to the nearby record storeD. You ask the policeman for help30. The underlined wordpersistentprobably means _.A existing B. continuing C trying D imagining31. Which of the following is the differe

29、nce between thinking and reflecting?A. Reflecting takes more time than thinking.B. Reflecting is more important than thinkingC Reflecting is a kind of more imaginative thinkingD Reflecting is a kind of deeper thinkingD For the 17 years my life was very happy. Then the first sad thing happened. My mo

30、ther became very ill, and soon she knew that she was dying. Just before she died, she asked Elizabeth and me togo to her room. She held our hands and said, Victor and Elizabeth, my children, Im very happy because you love each other, and because one day youll get married. Everyone in the family love

31、syou, Elizabeth. Will you take my place in the family, my dear? I can die happy if you look after them when I have gone.My mother died and we were very sad, because we loved her dearly.

You muststudy hard and discover everything that you can. Thi

34、s is why God made you intelligent-to help other people. After the professors talk, I thought very carefully. I remembered the storm when I was 15; I remembered how the lightning had destroyed the tree. From then on, I wanted to use electricity to help people, and I wanted to discover the secrets of

I had to watch bodies from the moment when they died and the warm life left them.In the hospital and in the university, I watched the dying

38、 and the dead. Day after day, month after month,I followed death, so it was a dark and terrible time. I built a tall mast about 150 metres high, which is higher than the tallest building in the city, to catchlightning and send the electricity down to my machine in the lab. I believed I could use tha

39、t electricity to give life to things that were dead. Then one day, the answer came to me. Suddenly I was sure that I knew the secret of life.32.

44、DoVisit the grocery store on an empty stomach, and you will probably come home with a few things you did not plan to buy. But hunger is not the only cause of additional purchases. The location of store displays (摆放) also influences our shopping choices.36.The checkout area is a particular hotspot fo

45、r junk food. Studies have found that the products most commonly found there are sugary and salty snacks.37.A 2012 study in the Netherlands found that hospital workers were more likely to give up junk food for healthy snacks when the latter were more readily available on canteen shelves, for example.

46、 In 2014 Norwegian and Icelandic researchers also found that replacing unhealthy foods with healthy ones in the checkout area significantly increased last-minute sales of healthier foods.38.It has been working with more than 1,000 store owners to encourage them to order and promote nutritious foods.

47、 “We know that the stores are full of cues (暗示) meant to encourage consumption,” says Tamar Adjoian, a research scientist at the department, “Making healthy foods more convenient or appealing can lead to increased sales of those products.”Adjoian and her colleagues wondered if such findings would ap

48、ply to their citys crowded urban checkout areas, so they selected three Bronx supermarkets for their own study.39.Then they recorded purchases over six three-hour periods in each store for two weeks.Of the more than 2,100 shoppers they observed, just 4 percent bought anything from the checkout area.

49、 Among those who did, however, customers in the healthy lines purchased nutritious foods more than twice as often as those in the standard lines.40.The findings were reported in September in theJournal of Nutrition Education and Behavior.The potential influence may seem small, but Adjoian believes t

53、t 41 this because wood rot.” He was surprised when his father started laughing. Then, when the father 42 the boys remark with the salesman, and the salesman laughed, the boy felt ashamed. Some 30 years later, now a father himself, the man often thinks of this 43 whenever his own children say somethi

54、ng that is unintentionally funny. Most parents are 44 by such reactions because they dont understand how deeply a child fears shame. “All too often we dont see or hear what is really 45 our children,” says Kaoru Yamamoto, a psychologist at the University of Colorado at Denver. Yamamotos surveys show

55、 that children are afraid of losing 46 : being thought of as unattractive, stupid or dishonest.
