What's more, developed countries, including Germany and the United States,are moving from an industrial-based economy to a computing and IT-based one.The other important influence of technological change is in the way of communication. For example,in the past,people wrote letters or talked on fixed phones.Now they send text messages or chat using mobile phones.Instead of waiting weeks for a letter,we can communicate right away easily. New forms of communication are cheaper or free.As a result,now people who live thousands of kilometres away from each other can communicate as much as they want at any time.In conclusion,computing and new technologies have had a great influence on our lives in many ways.And they have had the greatest influence in business and communication.In the future,if technology continues developing at such speed,our business practices and methods of答案:完形填空CADBD DBCDB ACBAD阅读理解ABBDA BCCD综合填空1-5 spreading; correctly; how; with; look6-10 noise; through; breathing; unable; It任务型阅读1-5. taken; difference; Example; on; help;6-10.into; faster; less; communicate; quickly。

There’re many other reasons you may lose attention.Technology overload.Your computer, cell phone, and iPad all draw your attention no wonder you’re distracted(注意力不集中)! To a certain point, your brain can act as a secretary, keeping you organized and helping with time task, research shows. Learning basic organizational skills, like writing down responsibilities and maintaining a day planner, can help reduce these problems. So take a break from television, Internet, and email floods.Lack of sleep.If you are missing out on enough shut-eye most likely seven to eight hours a night you’re probably easy-angry, dealing with mind fog, and have difficulty dealing with daily tasks. That's a usual reaction.Poor job satisfaction.Sure, everyone's unhappy at work from time to time maybe your customer presentation failed or your boss gave you a poor performance review. And if a disorganized working environment or a boring project makes it difficult to focus, that's normal. But if you find that you often can’t complete projects, you probably need medical attention, or a new job.Too much stress, too little exercise.Stress has a bad influence on concentration (E /1). The relaxation skills can add to your ability to focus on(集中)your mind. Regular exercise can keep your mind quick and make learning and memory ability better. It's even more important in adults with ADHA.答案:完形填空ABCDB ABCAA CCDBA阅读理解ADBB BDCB综合填空1-5 The ; was presented;novels ; During;what;6-10 to connect;them;mostly; The; including任务型阅读1-5 Causes; devote; like;difficulty; Getting;6-10 influence;Suggestions;Keeping; making;ability(abilities)。

Researchers are putting this idea that eating cheese before bed Have you heard the saying CHEE Lover to the test. They're paying five lucky people £800 to have cheese before they sleep. For three months, each cheese tester must take notes about their dreams, how they sleep and how they feel during the day. The study's purpose is to discover the effect that different types of cheese have on dreams.New Mexico wants to make the smell of chilies (辣椒) an official state aroma(香味)The government of New Mexico wants to make the smell of chilies an official state aroma. The chili is already one of New Mexico’s official vegetables (although it is technically a fruit). The state produced more than60% of the US's chili crop in 2021, and it is hoped that making the aroma official will attract more tourists.Super-sized snack discoveredOllie, eight, likes to enjoy a bag of crisps when he gets home from school.However, Ollie was amazed when he found a big piece of crisp 10 centimeters long at the bottom of his crisp bag. He's so pleased with it that he refuses to eat it-and has even put the super-sized snack on show in his bedroom.Food packaging (包装) law in France goes into effectFrance has a new law to cut down waste from fast food restaurants. Since January 1, restaurants that can seat 20 or more people have been stopped from using disposable (一次性的) bags and cutlery(餐具). The restaurants have to provide reusable cutlery, plates and cups.

People who eat at home can't use disposable bags or cutlery.C.People who order takeout can't use disposable bags or cutlery.D.Restaurants seating 20 or more people can't use disposable bags or cutlery.BDo you compare yourself to other people? Perhaps your best friend received something you really wanted for Christmas, or you're not allowed to go to a concert but your brother or sister is. Even though comparisons are normal and can sometimes be helpful, focusing on your own progress is important for your happiness.Why does focusing on me matter? “We prefer to compare ourselves to others who are doing better or not as well as ourselves," says psychologist(心理学家) Nicola Abbott.“But comparing your achievements to your past self (where you started) and your future self (where you'd like to get to) can be more positive." This can make you feel proud of what you've achieved and excited about what you might do.Child psychologist Laverne Antrobus agrees and says that focusing on your own goals is more worthwhile than always trying to come out on top.Do comparisons make you unhappy? Comparing yourself to those around you is natural and we often do it without realizing. It can help us to find our achievements and to form friendships with new people who have similar interests. However, it's important to be realistic and remember that nobody is perfect, especially online and on social media. Taking note of how the comparison is making you feel matters, too.If you begin to feel quite low, Abbott suggests choosing a different role model or focusing on your own strengths and what you're good at. Antrobus agrees. She says that asking yourself questions like“__▲__”,“What do I feel proud of?”and “What improvements can I notice?" can help to improve your self-esteem (how positive you feel about yourself).“Jealousy (忌妒) is an ordinary feeling," says Antrobus,“but focusing on improving your own performance can help you feel just as successful. Besides, learning to celebrate your friend's achievements can help not only to improve your friend's feeling but can also help you feel good. “It will encourage you to build each other up.”1.The underlined phrase“focusing on”means“”.A.taking part inB.paying attention toC. playing a role inD. making use of According to Paragraph2. Nicola Abbott agrees that it's better to compare________.A. your failures with your past self and future selfB. yourselves to others who are doing betterC. yourselves to others who are doing worseD. your achievements to your past self and future self3.

Hunger has many different causes, according to Dr. Monique Tello, from Harvard Medical School.The first cause may be a medical problem. “If a person always feels hungry and can’t put on weight or even loses weight, he should go to the hospital. For people with Type I diabetes(糖尿病), their body isn’t able to process sugar. They eat a lot, but still lose weight and they feel terrible.” Tello s aid.If it isn’t a medical cause, the problems could be in the head. It’s reasonable to be hungry every three to five hours. However, it’s possible for you to eat often and a lot after you watch food advertisements on TV or social media(媒体). Also, the mor e you eat, the larger your stomach gets, and the more you want to eat. A person’s state(状态) of mind can play a role. too. Research has shown that stress can increase levels of hunger hormones(激素). Pressure and worry drive people to look for food in the fri dge when they’re no truly hungry.Another reason may be the lifestyle. Sometimes the reason why a person is always hungry is that he eats too little, exercises too much, or both.So, how to solve the problem? There are three ways to solve it. First, reduce your time on watching food advertisements on TV and social media. In addition, say no to food if you’re not really hungry. Finally, change答案:完形填空1-5.

And never get into a car with a stranger.Second, don't talk in a loud voice when you are on the bus, so the driver will not be disturbed. If you need to talk with the bus driver, you’d better wait until the bus stops. Never throw things on the bus or out of the windows. Never play near the emergency exit. When there is a fire, the most important thing is to break the window with a hammer or any sharp thing and then jump out.Third, when you are getting off the bus» make sure you walk (not run) another three steps away from the door. This is the best place to be around a bus. Stay away from the bus wheels and watch out for moving cars!Last, if you leave something on the bus. never go back to the bus to get it.
