第二部分阅读理解（共两节。

满分30分）第一节（共4小题：每小题分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

11．（6分）It's good to share，right？Growing up as kids we are told to share our toys and not be selfish.We also live in an age where discussing our feelings is encouraged.But when does it all become too much？With new crazes trending all the time，such as dance challenges and wearing a pillow as a dress，the question is：when can sharing become over﹣sharing on social media？
What is over﹣sharing？The tern has become associated with social media，but it isn't exclusive to this platform.Imagine you head to a party and you meet someone.within five minutes they have divulged intimate details about their life.While some of us may try to escape these people，according to marriage therapist Carolyn Cole，this form of over﹣sharing could come from a strong desire to connect with someone.But how does this translate to social media？
Dr Christopher Hand，a lecturer in cyber psychology.says the more details people disclose，the less sympathy we express when things go wrong.This could be due to a belief that the more we share them，the more we attract our own negative experiences seems that sad fishing，the idea of searching for sympathy by over﹣sharing，is generally perceived as negative rather than the cry for help it could actually be.
However，Dr Hand's research also seems to suggest that the more we post on a platform，the more socially attractive we become —provided that the posts we bang out are positive.Even back in 2015，Gwendolyn Seidman PhD，said that we should avoid whining and being negative online.We should also steer clear of showing off.bragging or flexing，as it's now known especially about our love lives.It makes sense—if your date is going "that well"，would you really have time to share a photo with text？
So，how can you know if you are over﹣sharing？well，why not ask your friends in real life.They would probably be more than happy to tell you if your posts about your breakfast or your gripes about your lack of money really are too much.
（1）What are 'dance challenges' and 'pillow dresses' examples of？
A.'Crazes' that can trend.
B.Ways of enjoying oneself.
C.Various competitions.
D.Young people's unique ways of standing out.
（2）According to Dr Hand，what is the downside of sharing too many details？
A.People will feel closer to each other.
B.You will lose some friends.
C.People will show more sympathy.
D.People don't sympathise as much when things go wrong.
（3）According to Gwendolyn Seidman，what should we avoid doing with our love lives？
A.Being positive.
plaining constantly.
C.Showing off.
D.Keeping a low key.
12．（8分）Have you ever been on social media and seen your favourite celebrity talking about a product？These endorsements—might not be totally random，and are actually seen as a vital part of the marketing process.The question is：How do social media influencers 'influence' what you buy？
Human desire for status and making friends，combined with our need to belong to a group，make us susceptible to being 'socially influenced'.Companies often use that desire to have a similar lifestyle to a celebrity we admire to hawk or launch a product.So，what do these endorsements actually do？
Firstly，they can be used to build brand awareness.A social media influencer should have a strong understanding of the platform they operate on，and therefore can create engaging content that not only adheres to the brand image，but sparks their followers' interests in a product they might never have seen before.
Secondly，influencers can improve a company or product's relationship with their customer base.According to In Moment's 2018 US Retail CX Trends Report on customer loyalty，77% of buyers have been brand loyal for more than ten years.This is also true of 60%
of millennials.A popular celebrity can target key demographics and talk or blog about a product，which can create an instant and lasting bond with the consumer.
Lastly，influencers can improve customer buying habits with seemingly 'unbiased opinions'.We are more likely to respond to 'peer recommendation' than traditional ads，meaning the fact we see an influencer as a 'friend' can make us less likely to be sceptical about what we are seeing.
So，the next time you see a celebrity talking about a product，you might want to consider that this could be a carefully crafted marketing strategy designed to target your core needs.If you find yourself perusing a product you've seen on social media，you may well have been influenced.
（1）Why can social influencers make such engaging content？Because they .
A.are internet celebrities
B.know how to use the platform they are working on
C.have used the products themselves
D.are involved in the making of the products
（2）Which factor does not help to make 'social influence' so effective？
A.Being independent.
B.Making friends.
C.Belonging to a group.
D.Human desire for status.
（3）How does seeing an influencer as a 'friend' affect our decision making？
A.We are not much influenced.
B.We believe everything they say.
C.We are less doubtful about adverts we are seeing.
D.We want to make friends with them.
（4）What should you consider the next time you see a celebrity talking about a product？
A.It is exactly what I need.
B.We don't need it at all.
C.There's more to learn about the celebrity.
D.Our essential needs are being targeted.
13．（8分）If you could travel back in time，which period of history would you visit？It's a great question to ask your friends，and time travel is the subject of many science fiction films.Of course sci﹣fi is familiar to most of us，but what is cli﹣fi？The simple answer is climate fiction —a genre which focuses on the subject of climate change.
Many of the cli﹣fi examples we watch tend to be disaster films.It could be solar flares，ice ages devastating the planet，extreme flooding swamping the Earth with water，or super﹣storms that threaten life as we know it.While films and novels of this genre are often subject to the typical tropes of a hero or heroine battling to save the day，what sets it apart from most sci ﹣fi films is that the plots will often draw on plausible（可信的）outcomes in the present or near future.
Climate change and the potential threats have long been established.Some believe that the issue of climate change has even led to more fans watching films to learn more about what's happening to the world—seeing it as a form of edutainment.A study conducted by the Yale programme on Climate Change Communication tested the effects that two climate fiction novels can have on its readers and found 'significant positive effects' in terms of their attitudes and beliefs towards the climate crisis—for example，understanding global warming will harm them and future generations.
Most climate films are not only blockbuster action films，but also prey on our fear of what some see as the impending doom of a climate catastrophe.This sounds bad，but according to a study conducted on 310 adults in the US，watching scary films can help us feel more prepared，resilient and less alone in situations such as the pandemic.So，it looks like cli﹣fi is here to stay —and there seem to be some benefits.Whether it's there to educate，entertain or prepare you for
a climate crisis，it might have a role to play.
（1）The majority of cli﹣fis are films.
ic
B.catastrophic
C.romantic
D.historical
（2）What makes climate fiction different from sci﹣fi？
A.Reasonable endings.
B.Super heroes saving the day.
C.Relatable characters.
D.Blockbuster films.
（3）The passage mentioned some of the benefits of cli﹣fi except that it might the film viewers.
cate.
B.entertain.
C.prepare.
D.sadden.
（4）The author's attitude to cli﹣fi is .
A.optimistic
B.indifferent
C.doubtful
D.unclear
14．（8分）The chicken or the egg—which came first？It's probably one of the most commonly cited paradoxes —a chicken hatches from an egg，so the egg came first，right？But then what laid the egg？The two ideas seem contradictory，and that's exactly what a paradox is —a problem that seemingly has no definitive solution and can't be logically solved.
And paradoxes don't just exist in philosophical debates but also in our daily lives.How can work be flexible but maintain structure？How can we switch off if we're working from home？Two contrasting ideas could cause people stress，but what if we accept the contradiction and change the way we look at it？This is what some experts call the 'paradox mindset'.
A paradox consists of two realities that exist at the same time—even though that seems
impossible.If you embrace just one of those realities and ignore the other，it can cause problems.For example，embracing change may lead to burn﹣out，while embracing stability may lead to boredom.Some experts have found the acceptance of both realities and a willingness to embrace them can improve both creativity and productivity by allowing you to
navigate a path through the contradictions.
A 1996 study of geniuses by Albert Rothenberg found that those thinkers spent time considering opposites and antitheses.Consider Einstein.The theory of relativity was born out of the paradox that something could be moving and stationary at the same time depending on perspective.
So，having a 'paradox mindset' and accepting the bigger picture may help you to better understand problems.It could also make you happier knowing that contradictions exist.As a result，it may lead you to improving your productivity and creativity.If it worked for Einstein，maybe it could be good for you too!
（1）The chicken﹣egg example in paragraph one is used to .
A.introduce the topic
B.draw a conclusion
C.make a comparison
D.explain a complicated theory
（2）is not a paradox，according to the article.
A.The theory of relativity
B.To work at home and not answer phone calls from your boss
C.To lead a stable and boring life
D.To change constantly without feeling exhausted
（3）A 'paradox mindset' means .
A.learning to appreciate contradictions
B.avoiding contrast ideas
C.having it all
ing to a dead end
（4）What does the last paragraph mainly talk about？
A.You will feel much better if you embrace contradictions.
B. 'Paradox mindset' only applies to geniuses.
C.People will become less productive if they accept the bigger picture.
D.Contradictions will make it more difficult for people to understand problems.

15．（10分）Astronauts drink their own pee （尿）—after it's been cleaned.（1）Many experts，though，argue that recycling pee and other waste is an excellent and safe solution when there isn't enough fresh water to go around.
（2）All of the water that astronauts use to drink，brush their teeth，or make coffee comes out of one limited container that has to be resupplied—from Earth.To help conserve water，the waste from sinks，toilets，and even the pee from lab animals on board flows into a recycling system.First，the water goes through a series of filters（过滤器）to get rid of large particles（微粒）and impurities.Then，chemical reactions remove poisonous chemicals and kill any bacteria or viruses.（3）
Chris Hadfield，who lived on the space station for five months，says，"Before you feel uncomfortable with the thought of drinking your leftover wash water and your leftover pee，keep in mind that the water that we end up with is purer than most of the water that you drink on a daily basis at home."
Astronauts，however，tend to be more adventurous than the average person.On Earth，cities in very dry parts of the world have attempted to introduce wastewater purification systems.（4）Citizens recoiled（退缩）in disgust.Despite scientific evidence that the water is clean，many people just can't get over the fact that it once flowed through a toilet.In the 1990s，activists in San Diego and Los Angeles campaigned against "toilet to tap" water.（5）In a survey of 2，000 Americans，26 percent agreed with the statement："It is impossible for recycled water to be treated to a high enough quality that I would want to use it."
A.And you wouldn't be alone.
B.And the disapproval remained strong.
C.What comes out is clean enough to drink.
D.On the International Space Station，water is a precious resource.
E.Lots of people feel sick at the thought of drinking recycled wastewater.
F.Though some of these programs have succeeded，others failed miserably.
G.Would you pick up a glass of water that's been through a wastewater cleaning system？

So，how can you know if you are over﹣sharing？well，why not ask your friends in real life.They would probably be more than happy to tell you if your posts about your breakfast or
your gripes about your lack of money really are too much.

【分析】这是一篇说明文。

文章主要说明了如今社交媒体上的"过度分享"现象，有人指出有些人在聚会上过度分享，是因为他们可能期望与某人建立联系。

但是通过过度分享来寻求同情的想法，似乎通常被认为是消极的。

早在2015年，Gwendolyn Seidman博士就说过，我们应该避免在网上抱怨和消极，也不应该炫耀，尤其是我们的爱情生活。

【解答】（1）A.细节理解题。

根据文章第一段中的With new crazes trending all the time，such as dance challenges and wearing a pillow as a dress，the question is：when can sharing become over﹣﹣sharing on social media？（随着舞蹈挑战赛、把枕头当衣服穿等新热潮的不断兴起，问题是：什么时候社交媒体上的分享会变成过度分享。

）可知，舞蹈挑战和枕头裙是用来证明新热潮的不断兴起。

故选A项。

（2）D.细节理解题。

根据文章第三段中的the more details people disclose，the less sympathy we express when things go wrong.（人们披露的细节越多，我们在出现问题时表达的同情就越少。

）可知，分享太多细节的坏处是当出现问题时，人们不会那么同情。

故选D项。
