AEven if you don’t have to work,eat or sleep,you won’t be able to get through all information on blogs and social networks. The problem we face is that much of this information seems very interesting at first glance. Actually,much of the information is unimportant,disposable and it distracts(分心) us from more meaningful pursuits. Worse still,when we spend lots of time consuming information from our social media streams,we may find it hard to concentrate on what we’re doing and we have a tendency to forget what we have consumed anyway.A new study from Sweden’s KTH Royal Institute of Technology has found that too much social media exposure actually reduces your ability to process information and depletes your short-term working memory.Our working memory plays a critical role in our capacity to filter information and remember what is valuable but it is not a limitless resource. Erik Fransén,a professor in Computer Science at KTH and the leader of this new study on social media overload says this can explain why our capacity for processing information begins to fail when we attempt to stuff more information in the working memory.In fact,when you try to process the information like speech or video,you are going to need partly the same system of working memory,so you are reducing your own working memory capacity.Andwhen you try to store many things in your working memory,you get less good at processing information.It is the periods of downtime of your brain—preferably disconnected from the distractions of your computer or smartphone—that are needed for memory consolidation and transferring important information to your exposure to new information. Besides,you can empty your mind of thoughts quickly to relax completely,go for a short walk or spend a few minutes listening to music. This will help you improve your capacity to process information and increase your productivity.1.What can we learn about social media overload from Paragraph 1?A.It distracts our attention.B.It is beneficial to us.C.It brings us whatever we want.D.It keeps us informed of everything.2.Why does your capacity for processing information begin fall sometimes?A.Much of the information is unimportant.B.You don’t make the most of your brain.C.You’re less good at processing information.D.Your working memory is a limited resource.3.What does the underlined word “downtime” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Support. B.Relaxation.C.Increase. D.Loss.【语篇解读】本文讲述了社交媒体会给我们提供很多的信息,但这些信息大部分无用且会分散我们的注意力。

A doctor may advise medical interventions(医疗干预) in addition to changes in behavior. But experts say the more successful weight-loss plans include a well-balanced diet and exercise.People who want to avoid weight gain have to balance the number of calories they eat with the number of calories they use. To lose weight, you can reduce the number of calories you take in, or increase the number you use, or both. Experts at the National Institutes of Health say to lose weight, a person should do some moderate or intensive physical exercise most days of the week. This could include fast walking, sports or strength training.A recent study looked at four of the most popular dieting plans in the United States. Researchers at Stanford University studied more than three hundred overweight women, mostly in their thirties or forties. Each woman went on one of the four plans: Atkins, The Zone, Ornish or LEARN. The women attended diet classes and received written information about the food plans. At the end of a year, the women on the Atkins diet had lost the most, more than four and a half kilograms on average.Christopher Gardner led the study, reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association. He said the Atkins diet may be more successful because of its simple message to lower the intake of sugar. Also, he said the advice to increase protein in the diet leads to more satisfying meals. But last week, another report suggested that only a small minority of people have long-term success in dieting. Researchers at the University of California found that most dieters regained their lost weight within five years. And often they gained back even more. But those who kept the weight off generally were the ones who exercised.语篇定位本文是一篇议论文。

高考英语一轮复习学案:Unit 11 The MediaⅠ. 细品味经典文章(2019·全国卷Ⅲ阅读理解C) Before the 1830s, most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America, usually $8 to $10 a year. Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money, but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens. Accordingly, newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades. In addition, most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience. They were dull and visually forbidding. But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that.The trend, then, was toward the “penny paper”—a term referring to papers made widely available to the public. It meant any inexpensive newspaper; perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street.This development did not take place overnight. It had been possible(but not easy)to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830, but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the pri nter’s office to purchase a copy. Street sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years, street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern cities. At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny—usually two or three cents was charged—and some of the older well-known papers charged five or six cents. But the phrase “penny paper ” caught the public’s fancy, and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.This new trend of newspapers for “the man on the street” did not begin well. Some of the early ventures(企业)were immediate failures. Publishers already in business, people who were owners of successful papers, had little desire to change the tradition. It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling.Ⅱ. 按要求完成任务1. 写出文章中与媒体有关的单词。

Unit 11 The Media单元综合检测(时间:100分钟;满分:120分)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AWhen we decide to teach children at home by ourselves,we use every resource (资源) to aid us in filling our children's minds with valuable information.At times,television can even be not only a resource for us,but an important resource.The main focus (焦点) should not be whether kids,homeschooled or not,should watch TV.The real focus needs to be:What is the best choice for my child in this period of life and learning?For some people,this will mean replacing the entertainment center with exercise equipment;for others it will be to allow a few hours of carefully chosen programming each day or week.Television has some very valuable programming that can add richness to your daily homeschool lessons.My own children are learning about Native Americans at present and we found a program called Into the West.The program did a beautiful job presenting the Westward Movement from two different sides:the Native Americans and the White Settlers.My children were shocked by the contrast (对比) between the two,and for our family this program was a central part of this unit study.What works for my family may not work for yours.Quite honestly,that's OK because what works for your family may not work for mine.As parents,we need to be purposeful about our children's activities:including television.No one can tell you whether you should buy a big­screen TV or to throw away what you have.The goal is to decide which types of resources benefit your children's education,entertainment,and quality of life.No one can decide this for you.Once you make a decision,you will stop comparing your family with another homeschool family.【语篇解读】本文主要是针对那些决定在家教孩子的父母提出的一些看法。

Unit 11 The Media李仕才一、阅读理解AIn bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition of each new skill-the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child: This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Patents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are severe over times of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls imposed represent the needs of the parent s and the values of the community as much as the child’s own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality. Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practice what they teach, their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’ principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.1.Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills ______.A. should be avoidedB.is universal among parentsC. sets up dangerous states of worry in the childD. will make him lose interest in learning new things2.In the process of children’s learning new skills, parents ______.A. should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they readB. should not expect too much of themC. should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their ownD. should create as many learning opportunities as possible3.The second paragraph mainly tells us that ______.A. parents should be strict with their childrenB. parental controls reflect only the needs of the parents and the values of the communityC. parental restrictions vary, and are not always intended for the benefit of the children aloneD. parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situation4.In moral matters, parents should _______.A. observe the rules themselvesB.be aware of the marked difference between adults and childrenC. forbid things which have no foundation in moralityD. consistently ensure the security of their children【文章大意】在孩子的成长过程中,父母的教育与期望值要有一个“度”,不能揠苗助长;同时,父母也要以身作则,为孩子树立一个榜样。

The following vacations could be best choices.Cruise down the Amazon RiverAqua Expeditions takes up to 32 passengers at a time on guided journeys of three, four, or seven days down the Amazon River. Those adventurers see forests and waterfalls, visit local fish markets, and take canoe trips. They also take in wildlife such as capuchin monkeys and river dolphins.Go Glamping in MontanaThe Resort at Paws Up located on a cattle ranch (牧场) is a standout in the type. The ranch rents homes with up to four bedrooms, but it's the luxury tents that offer closer communion with the outdoors. Tents are arranged into camps, each of which has a private chef and butler, the latter of whom helps build campfires and arrange daytime activities. Guests can participate in a cattle drive, go clay shooting, take a hot air balloon trip, or ride horses.Climb inside a Volcano in IcelandIceland is famous for its volcanoes and has plenty of luxury hotel options. Thrill-seekers can actually go down into the dormant (休眠的), 700-foot-deep Thrihnukagigur, by using an open elevator. Take a helicopter if you want to skip the 2-mile hike to the volcano, and arrange a private tour to avoid crowds. And visitors traveling there can enjoy the luxury hotel such as the ION Luxury Adventure Hotel and the Hotel Rangá.语篇解读:本文是应用文。
