will happen．This is true in most cases，for example on a doorbell and on the"on/off"button on the TV．But some buttons are actually fake，like the"close"button on a lift．Many people are in the habit of pressing the"close"button because they don't havethe patience to wait for the lift doors to shut．But lifts'"close"buttons are a complete scam （骗局），at least in the US﹣﹣the doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you press．It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the US，making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter．Only US firefighters and repairmen can use the buttons to speed up the door﹣closing process if they have a code or special keys．But to normal lift riders，the buttons aren't completely useless．According to psychologists，fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control．"Perceived （能够感知的） control is very important．It reduces stress and increases well﹣being，"Ellen J．Langer，a psychology professor，said，"having a lack of control is associated with depression．"Experts have revealed that a lot of buttons that don't do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose． For example，many offices in the US have fake thermostats （温度调节器） because people tend to feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace．But psychologists found it interesting that even when people are aware of these little"white lies"，they still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close，it is considered to be worth the effort．"That habit is here to stay，"John Kounios，a psychology professor，said．"Even though I have real doubts about the traffic light buttons，I always press them．After all，I've got nothing else to do while waiting．So why not press the button in the hope that this one will work？"25．What was the author's main purpose in writing the article？A．To analyze the functions of fake buttons．B．To describe some different kinds of fake buttons．C．To explain the advantages and disadvantages of fake buttons．D．To explore people's different habits when it comes to pushing buttons．26．In America，the"close"buttons on lifts ．A．are fake for the convenience of disabled peopleB．work only when people press them hard for a whileC．were specially designed to give people a sense of controlD．cannot speed up the process of closing the door in any case27．The underlined part"for this same purpose"in Paragraph 6refers to ．A．making people more patientB．giving people perceived controlC．helping people to build up confidenceD．making people with depression feel better28．According to John Kounios，people who press fake buttons ．A．should give up this habitB．probably do so to kill timeC．consider what they do to be meaninglessD．don't know that what they press is fake．29．Several times my daughter had telephoned to say，"Mum，you must come and see the daffodils（水仙花）before they are over．"I wanted to go，but it was a two﹣hour drive from Lake Arrowhead．"I will go next Tuesday，"I promised，a little unwillingly，on her third call．The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy．Still，I had promised，and so I drove there．When I finally walked into Carolyn's house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren，I said，"Forget the daffodils，Carolyn!The road is invisible （看不见的） in the cloud and fog，and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see!"My daughter smiled calmly and said，"We drive in this weather all the time，Mum．You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience．"After about twenty minutes，we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church．On the far side of the church，I saw a hand﹣lettered sign that read"Daffodil Garden"？We got out of the car and each took a child's hand，and I followed Carolyn down the path．Then，we turned a comer of the path，and I looked up amazed．Before me lay the most beautiful sight．Flowsof flowers of different colors seemed poured down the peak and slopes．There were five acres of flowers!A seas of daffodil!It was like a fairyland all beyond description．"But who has done this？"I asked Carolyn．"It's just one woman，"Carolyn answered．That's her home，"Carolyn pointed to a well﹣kept A﹣frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory．We walked up to the house．On the patio （露台），we saw a poster．"Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking"was the headline．The first answer was a simple one．"50，000 bulbs （鳞茎）"it read．The second answer was，"One at a time，by one woman．"The third answer was，"Began in 1958．"I thought of this woman whom I had never met，who，more than fifty years before，had begun﹣one bulb at a time﹣to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top．Just planting one bulb at a time，year after year，had changed the world where she lived and created something of magnificence，beauty，and inspiration．When we multiply tiny pieces of time with small amounts of daily effort，we too can accomplish great things．Everyone can do something to change the world．29．The writer wasn't going to see the daffodils at first because ．A．she cared more about the

species with red eyes and a thick tail is one of the largest lizards in the Caribbean．The Cuban iguana is primarily herbivorous； 95% of its diet consists of the leaves，flowers and fruits from as many as 30 plant species，including the seaside rock bush and various grasses． However，Cuban iguanas occasionally consume animal matter，and individuals have been observed eating the dead flesh of birds，fish and crabs，The researchers wrote that quite a few people on Isla Magueyes could have caused this incident．The Cuban iguana is distributed throughout the rocky southern coastal areas of mainland Cuba and its surrounding islands with a wild population booming on Isla Magueyes，Puerto Rico．It is also found on the Cayman Islands of Little Cayman and Cayman Brac，where a separate subspecies occurs．Females guard their nest sites and often nest in sites half destroyed by Cuban crocodiles． To avoid the attack from them，the Cuban iguana often makes its home within or near prickly﹣pear cacti（仙人掌）．In general the species is in decline，more quickly on the mainland than on the outlying islands．One of the reasons for their decline is habitat destruction caused by t he over consuming of farm animals，housing development，and the building of tourist resorts on the beacheswhere the animals prefer to build their nests． Although the wild population is in decline，the numbers of iguanas have been sharply increased as a result of captive﹣breeding（圈养） and other conservation programs．32．The underlined word"herbivorous"（Paragraph 2）probably means ．A．dangerous B．gentleC．plant﹣eating

iguana．第二节（共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．36．Everyone can benefit a lot from reading books．The following is about the various benefits of reading books．（36）Whenever you read

It doesn't just display antiques as most other museums do. Guanfu's exhibits feel intimate（温馨）, as if visitors had walked into a private house. Antique furniture is placed as it would have been in someone's home long ago, with rare blue-flowered porcelain（瓷器）vases and jars decorating the room. Apart from its branch in Beijing, Guanfu has opened two branches in Shanghai and Xiamen.Long Museum, ShanghaiTicket: 50 yuanWang Wei and Liu Yiqian have turned people's heads several times since opening the museum in 2012.In 2014, Liu snapped up a Ming Dynasty porcelain cup for HK$281.24million at an auction（拍卖）.

Originally created in Denmark and launched in Brighton and Leeds in June, the service has recently been introduced in the United Kingdom by a couple of young entrepreneurs（企业家）.Millions of tons of food are thrown in the trash every year, with restaurants accounting for a large part, so eco-entrepreneurs Chris Wilson and Jamie Crummie came up with the good idea to stop food waste. Using Too Good to Go not only helps restaurants save expense, but gives people in need the chance to order fancy dishes at low prices.Too Good to Go is very convenient for users. Restaurants make food available on the Too Good To Go app and website. People can look through the available dishes on the smartphones, pay for them using credit card and pick them up at a set time, an hour before closing time.Although Too Good to Go does take a fee from restaurants for each sale, its creators say the end goal is to use it for restaurants to solve their waste management problem, rather than making a profit. Wilson claims, “The idea is that restaurants stop producing the extra food so they don't need to throw it away in the trash, and we really want to put ourselves out of business by stopping food waste.”Birmingham has become the latest city where restaurants can reduce food waste to the lowest limit by working with the Too Good To Go social enterprise app.25．Where was Too Good to Go originally launched? ________A．In Denmark. B．In Brighton. C．In Birmingham. D．In the US. 26．What's the app intended to do? ________A．Make a profit by selling food on the website. B．Allow restaurants to sell foods at low prices.C．Help restaurants to deal with leftover food. D．Call on restaurants to save food and money.27．How did the creators of the app make profits? ________A．By selling copies of the app. B．By taking a fee from buyers.C．By charging restaurants for each sale. D．By getting donations from entrepreneurs.28．What can we infer from the text? ________A．People can pay less money for a rich meal. B．The app is mainly designed to help the poor. C．Dishes can be sold to make a lot of profits. D．People can get their ordered food at home.CWhen was the last time you upgraded your smartphone, and put your old handset into a cupboard never to be seen again?Rather than seeing how much we can get for it on eBay, the high-street retailer（零售商）Three is encouraging customers to do something good. Sure, you could give it to a family member or sell it and pocket the extra money,but what if that tiny little device could really change someone else's life for the better? According to Three, there are almost 15million such people in the UK, unable to enjoy the luxury of a smartphone and over 20 million of us with unused devices lying around. Reconnected, a non-profit programme, is partnering with a variety of charities （慈善机构）to get the technology to those people who need it most.But anyone who has a smartphone knows that much of the expense comes paying your monthly bill, but not for the device. So those who receive a device via the programme will also be given three months free access to the Three network allowing them to go online, sign up to job alerts and make calls without the cost hanging over them. After the period is up, they can go into any store and set up a contract（合同）with the phone they already have.Mary, 58, from Hertfordshire was given a phone, and explained how it changed her life:“Before I got my smartphone, I was terrified of technology. I wanted a job, so I knew I needed to get online. By the end of the three-month programme, I was emailing prospective employers and t king to my employment advisor via email. It has opened so many doors for me.”If you want to take part in Reconnected, all you need to do is go to your local Three store and collect a pre-paid envelope to send your device away. 2017 is looking up already.29．Why does Three encourage people to donate their unused phone? ________A．To upgrade their smartphone. B．To join the charity organization.C．To improve some poor people's life. D．To exchange for some pocket money.30. What can we know about the phone offered by the programme? ________A．The phone service is free of charge. B．It has to be returned after 3months.C．Users must pay for their phone calls. D．Its service can last with a contract.31．What does the example of Mary show? ________A．How technology changes people's life. B．How people benefit from the programme.C．How people can join the programme. D．How her career began to take off.DIt is certainly newsworthy that Julia is the first new Muppet（提线木偶）in a decade in Sesame Street, a TV program for children, but that is not the only thing that makes her special. The cheery, green-eyed 4-year-old, who has autism（自闭症）, is also here to expose young kids to those with autism and teach them about acceptance.The creators decided to bring the Muppet on air so that she would be able to reach millions more kids and families. However, as autism looks different in everyone, it can be hard to introduce such a character properly. Sesame Workshop consulted with over 250 educators, psychologists, and autism organizations.In Julia's first episode, viewers observe common problems with kids who suffer autism and similar disorders. For example, when the other Muppets want to play hide and seek, Julia starts jumping up and down with excitement. Instead of laughing at her or correcting her, the group of Muppets start jumping with her and it becomes a new game. And when Julia first meets Big Bird, another Muppet, she ignores him. At first, Big Bird is hurt, but he learns that it doesn't mean she dislikes him—she just communicates with strangers in a different way.Julia was an instant hit. Families quickly connect with the little red-haired girl. Sherrie Westin, an executivevice president at Sesame Workshop, says her favorite feedback came from a mother, who used Julia to explain to her autistic daughter what the condition meant, inspiring the daughter t o say, “So I'm amazing, too, right?”Autism affects 1 in 68 children in the United States and scores more worldwide. Hopefully, by watching Julia, kids will see that everyone should be treated equally and appreciated.32．What does the underlined word “them”in Paragraph 1 refer to? ________A．Sesame Street's Muppets. B．Young kids.C．Children with autism. D．The creators of Julia.33．Why did Sesame Workshop consult many experts? ________A．To make the new Muppet entertaining. B．To get their advice on the cure for autism.C．To make autism better known through Julia. D．To make more money through the TV program. 34．How do the other Muppets react to Julia's behavior in the game? ________A．They follow her. B．They ignore her. C．They correct her. D．They laugh at her. 35．Why did the author mention the mother and her autistic daughter? ________A．To make Sesame Street popular. B．To help people with autism.C．To show the influence of Julia. D．To draw public attention to them.第二节（共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.Summer is a time to look forward to because there is no school to get you down. 36 You just need to stay active, occupied, and have an open mind.·Read if you feel bored.Subscribe to a magazine or comic if you don't like books.

There are many tales about their origin. The most popular is that the festival is celebrated in honor of Qu Y uan. Qu Yuan was more concerned about his country but was not understanding by the rulers. Feeling desperately, he jumped into the Miluo River on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month, 278 BC. Before he died, the fishermen sailed their boats to look up for his body. People throw zongzi into the water, hoping to keep possible fish attacking his body.

I think movies tell moving stories about modern life, and you can get completely lost in it, forgetting about the stress in life and work.M: Y eah, I agree. But I prefer the plays myself. I know plays aren’t as realistic as movies. I mean, you have to imagine a lot of the setting, not like in the movies. But I like the fact that you have to use your imagination more.

One of the things that concern me most is the future of the Alaska environment. About twenty years ago, before going on some wilderness research, I visited Anchorage, the largest city in Alaska. It was a small city of 40, 000 people surrounded by a quiet wilderness. When I made a recent trip there, I found amazing changes. Anchorage now has a hundred and eight thousand people, more than four times a s many as in 1960. There’re tall buildings, shopping centers and all the crowds and traffic jams. The forests and mountains are still nearby, but they seem so small compared to the city’s great size. The discovery of oil in Alaska brought increased wealth to the state. However, there have been too many people moving to Alaska in a very short period to work on the pipeline. There is not enough housing or transportation.I think Alaska must make important decisions soon. Alaskans need to decide how to develop their natural resources and mineral wealth without destroying the wilderness and harming the wildlife. What is decided on now will affect the generations to come.For today’s lecture, I’ve brought along many of the pictures I usually show in my environmen tal science classesin my own university. First, I’ll show you some pictures of Alaska’s wilderness as it is today. Then I’d like to outline my specific suggestions.Dear Gary,I’m very glad to know that you are coming to China. Of course, a Chinese name will help you better fit in with the new culture.The biggest difference between Chinese names and English names is that we put the family name first. A Chinese name usually consists of two or three characters, which often carry some special significance or expectations. As you are an energetic and warm-hearted boy, I recommend you the name Li Yang. The family name, which is shared by billions of Chinese, has the same pronunciation as yours. The given name means the sun in Chinese.I hope you like your new name and have a really good time in China.Yours,Li Hua。

2017年河北唐山高三一模英语试卷-学生用卷一、阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，共30分）1、【来源】 2017年河北唐山高三一模（A篇）第21~24题8分(每题2分)"Joe? Is that you? " The woman speaking to me at the baseball game looked a little familiar. "Marci? " I asked. "It IS you!" she cried out, smiling broadly. "Gosh, it's good to see you again!"It was good to see Marci, too. Off and on during the past few decades I've wondered about her. I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rocky for Marci. So meeting her at the baseball game was really out of expectation.We spent a few minutes talking about our lives—the good old, bad old days. Then Marci grew quiet for a moment. "You know, Joe, " she said, “I've always wanted to tell you… how… how sorry I am for the way I treated you. You must have been hurt both physically and mentally." I was a little embarrassed. I turned and looked at her. "It's OK, " I said, "No big deal!" "But I was such a jerk." she continued. Yes you were, I thought. "We were both pretty young, " I smiled. "I know." she said, "It's just always bothered me, remembering how mean I was to you. And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry."The expression on her face was warm and sincere. And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief. "OK, "I said. "Apology accepted!" Overcome by the sweetness of the moment, I reached an arm around her and gave her a quick hug. Just then, the crowd erupted with a huge cheer, and Marci and I both returned our attention to the game. By the time I looked over to where she had been, she was gone. But the warm, wonderful feeling of our brief exchange was still there, and continue to this day whenever I think about it.It isn't enough to just say "I am sorry" and "You are forgiven." But when those words are truly felt and sincerely expressed, they can open the door to miracles of the heart. Forgiveness can bring peace to an injured soul—even years after the fact. Even at a baseball game.(1) What kind of life did Marci live during the late 20th century according to the passage?A. Happy.B. Busy.C. Hard.D. Simple.(2) What does the underlined word "jerk" in the third paragraph mean?A. A humorous person.B. A cruel person.C. A careless person.D. An honest person.(3) Why did Marci look in relief after talking with the author?A. Because her favorite team won the game.B. Because she learned Joe was living a good life.C. Because she made an apology to the author.D. Because she found she was not mean any longer.(4) What might be the best title for the passage?A. Excitement sofa Baseball Game.B. Mental Burden of A Woman.C. Miracles of Forgiveness.D. Relief of Finding A friend.2、【来源】 2017年河北唐山高三一模（B篇）第25~28题8分(每题2分)The online business model is changing on a satisfaction-first basis.

In hot peppers, such as Mexico peppers, the strong flavor comes from a compound （复合物）, which does not exist in sweet peppers or onions. Studies have suggested that this compound can offer a wealth of health benefits.A study of more than 16, 000 people in the United States showed that individuals who consumed red chili peppers had a lower risk of death from all causes over an average of 18 years than those who did not eat the spicy food. Compared with participants who did not consume hot red chili peppers, those who did were found to be at a 13 percent reduced risk of all-cause death.For example, a recent study reported by Medical News Today, found that the compound might have the potential to stop breast cancer, while an earlier study linked the compound to a reduced risk of digest system cancers. Still, the available data suggested that hot red chili pepper consumption was most strongly associated with a reduced risk of death from heart disease.While the researchers are unable to identify the concrete compound by which red chili peppers might extend lifespan, the team says that it is likely due to the compound that is effectively against obesity （肥胖症）.Overall, the team says that these latest findings support those of the 2015 study, linking spicy food intake to reduced risk of death by showing "a significant decrease in death associated with hot red chili pepper consumption." However, Chopan and Littenberg note that the earlier study was only conducted in Chinese adults, so the new research makes these findings more TAL#NBSP credible.(1) What can be inferred from the passage?A. The study only goes for American people.B. Red chili pepper can cure all-cause diseases.C. The compound protects people against obesity.D. Onion consuming can reduce death risk.(2) What is the finding of the new research mainly about?A. Hot red chili pepper lovers develop no cancers.B. Hot red chili peppers help control breast illness.C. Hot red chili peppers decrease heart disease.D. Hot red chili pepper intake may increase lifespan.(3) Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word"credible"?A. Convincing.B. Practical.C. Encouraging.D. Attractive.4、【来源】 2017年河北唐山高三一模（D篇）第32~35题8分(每题2分)2019~2020学年10月江苏南京建邺区金陵中学河西分校高二上学期月考（B篇）第24~27题8分(每题2分)When you're working your way through one of life's storms, it is human nature to focus on getting back to normal, to "bounce back" as quickly as possible to a place where things are calm, familiar and comfortable.However, actually it is unrealistic to think we can ever truly return emotionally and intelligently to where we were before the storm because every experience changes us in some way. For example, when we experience a major health scare, possibly involving some hospital time, we can never go back to being the person we were before the event even if we fully recover because we have experienced firsthand the fragility（脆弱） of life, not to mention coming face to face with death.So, now that we can never return, what should we do?Consider this… how is it that two people can be faced with the same hardship and while one becomes hopeless and feels anger and upset, the other is able to overcome their circumstances and grow stronger than ever as a result of the experience?At one extreme, we may choose to accept the role of unlucky victim, or become trapped in the "Why is it always me!" negative and frustrating（令人沮丧的） situations. Either way is the result of a fixed mindset（思维模式） that is resistant to growth and change. If this is your approach to life, you will be far less likely to be active in effectively managing change and recovering from bad situations.But there is another choice. If you are honest enough, you may consider what was once "normal" for you was just the main cause of your storm. You can choose to hug change and uncertainty and learn to grow forward through all of your experiences. Of course, this means doing the work to develop the skills and habits that will enable you to handle life's occasional storms.In conclusion, it is up to each of us to choose the meaning we apply to our situations at all times. Different choices will lead to different lives. Of course you can grow forward if you are determined to choose to live a positive life regardless of whatever hardships you are facing.(1) What does the author try to convey with the example in the second paragraph?A. We will understand life much better after an escape from death.B. It usually takes a long time to recover from a health problem.C. It's unlikely to return to where we were after certain events.D. We can recover from an emotional problem much more easily.(2) When faced with hardships, some people choose to be a victim becauseof.A. their terrible experiencesB. their negative thoughtsC. their poor healthD. their bad luck(3) What is the author's purpose in writing the text?A. To advise us to manage bad emotions.B. To persuade us to get back to normal.C. To offer us useful skills to work with.D. To encourage us to overcome hardships.(4) If you're determined to grow forward you have to.A. experience life's fragilityB. welcome uncertainty and changeC. develop new skills and habitsD. overcome the fear of death二、七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）5、【来源】 2017年河北唐山高三一模第36~40题10分(每题2分)I can't tell you how excited I was when I joined my first book club, but I can tell you how much immediately regretted it. Don't get me wrong. I love book clubs ofcourse.1To avoid this continuous and unpleasant matter, and to look smart in the club as well, I have a few tricks to share with you.1. Make a good excuse for not reading the bookSome of your book club friends might try to shame you for not reading thebook.2. And it is absolutely wrong. The best way to defend yourself is to come up with a strong, thoughtful excuse for not reading it.2.3The Kindle ape for your Android or iPhone actually records the most quoted passages by all readers. Simply do a quick goggle search for “most quoted passages" + "the name of the book" and see what comes up. Make sure you're the first to speak up. When you read the quote, read it forcefully, taking long, thoughtful pauses.3. Pick an opinion4There, you'll find lots of opinions on the book, which range from glowing to inspiring; simply pick one and use it as your own during the book discussion. This way you don't have to read the book or think for yourself.4. Always vote for books that are also moviesFight hard for books with a movie version. And make sure it's a short movie you can easily watch while sleeping on the couch. When someone complains that the book you want to read is also a movie - act surprised.5You are sure to make yourself look smart. Anyway book clubs are great social platforms, which provide an enjoyable and meaningful addition to your social calendar （日历）.A. Read a quote aloud and slowly.B. Make your book look worm.C. I just hate reading and talking to people.D. Find a suitable website and look up the very book.E. This is called “didn't read the book shaming"F. You're deeply considering everything being said.G.

History is a record of what has happened in the past. 36 The really fascinating thing is that much of history has been repeated time and again. It allows us to learn from the past, both the mistakes made and the successes achieved.One of the benefits of history is reading how other people both famous and totally unknown have overcome tremendous challenges in their life. These challenges, although particular to a person, or to a certain time in the past, or occurring in a different country or culture, all convey the same thing. 3738 He encountered many failures while on the road to finally inventing the modern day light bulb. He could be held out as an example of a person who never gave up. 39 However, he did not let those failures stop him. He had a dream and he just kept trying different things until he did reach success.Or, consider the story of Abraham Lincoln who managed to become President of the United States even though he suffered many setbacks and personal losses.

The app, called Hinadan, asks players to place 12 dolls in their proper positions on a standard display.If you place the doll in the wrong spot, the app will play a …Boo‟ sound, but if it is correct, players should hear …Pon‟ and the sounds of a drum.The game will then be finished once the dolls are arranged in their proper order, which is important to honor the traditional Hinamatsuri, or Girl‟s Day, which takes place on March 3rd.Although Wakamiya may break the traditional idea about most elderly individuals, a study does suggest that she is heading down the right path to avoid other health risks.A team at the Mayo Clinic in Arizona linked many activities with preserving brain power in the elderly - but getting on line seems particularly effective.The American study found that those who used a computer at least once a week were 42 percent le ss likely than those who didn‟t to develop mild cognitive impairment which is often a warning sign for dementia (老年痴呆).28.

Selfie accessories (配件) such as selfie sticks ar e now as common as selfie cameras on phones, and the word “selfie” was even added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2013.While selfies are extremely common, opinions on selfies can vary significantly, with some seeing them as creative and a way to connect with other people and others seeing them as narcissistic (自恋的), self-promotional and inauthentic.In a recent study published in Frontiers in Psychology, Sarah Diefenbach,a professor at Ludwig-Maximilians- University Munich, conducted an online survey t o assess people‟s motivation and judgments when taking and viewing selfies.A total of 238 people living in Austria, Germany and Switzerland completed the survey.Interestingly, despite 77% of the participants taking selfies regularly, more than 60% agreed on the potential negative (消极的) consequences of selfies，such as influences on self-respect. And 82% of participants indicated that they would rather see other types of photos instead of selfies on social media. This phenomenon, where many people regularly take selfies but most people don‟t appear to like them，has been termed the “selfie paradox” by Diefenbach.The participants owed greater self-promotional motivation and less authenticity to selfies taken by others, compared with those taken by themselves. “This may explain how everybody can take selfies without feeling narcissistic. If most people think like this, then it is no wonder that the world is full of selfies,” Diefenbach explains.32. What is the purpose of the online survey?C.
