The Mayflower

In Britain, there was a group of people called Pilgrims. They were different from most people there. They had certain religious beliefs that others did not share. So they wanted to leave Britain and go to the New World. They hired a ship called the Mayflower to take them to America.

They left in September 1620 and landed in America after two months of sailing. They were supposed to go to the Hudson River area. But they landed at a place called Plymouth Rock. It was in modern-day Massachusetts on Cape Cod. Still, the Pilgrims decided to settle there.

The first winter was hard. Many Pilgrims died. But the Native Americans there made peace with them. Their leader was Samoset. He brought Squanto to stay with the Pilgrims. Squanto and other Native Americans taught the Pilgrims how to farm the land properly. That year, the Pilgrims harvested many crops in fall. They had a big three-day festival with the Native Americans. That was the first Thanksgiving.

Every year the Pilgrim colony became stronger and stronger. More colonists came from Britain. So the colony became very successful.

25、Mindlessly checking Facebook makes you an awful lot like a lab mouse continuously pushing a button in order to get a treat.

When you check your phone, your brain gets its own little zing; Someone might be talking about you on Facebook! No? Reload. Maybe your Instagram got a heart! Reload. Reload.

But you’re no rat. Human brains can fight the ways apps hijack our brains, if we learn some skills to deal with this problem.

Are Facebook or Twitter “addictions” （瘾） ? Recent scientific research about social media doesn’t agree on that term, but evidence that we aren’t doing well is present at dinner tables where everyone is staring at screens, and at crosswalks where absent-minded people walk into traffic.

I became mindful of my early-morning bad habits. Pre-coffee, half awake, I’d lie there for an hour with my phone. So I called up psychologists, brain scientists and app designers for advice on what actually would help me.

Surprisingly, they didn’t tell me to immediately stop, but instead, they told me I needed the skills for managing social media as part of my life.

Limit Triggers （诱因）

Our brains are made to quickly eat up information. So why let social-media companies decide when to attract you? Turn off app notifications on your phone and computer, especially for live video broadcasts. They are designed to create the fear of missing out.

Avoid Quicksand （流沙, 陷阱）

When you’re on Facebook, it is easy to read one article, then another. Nir Eyal, author of the 2014 book “Hooked” says he forces himself not to read anything right away. Instead, he saves articles to a service called Pocket, which reads them aloud while he’s at the gym.

We hurt ourselves when we use social media as a break from serious work. Our brains need a chance to be empty. Research suggests the best way to help your brain focus is exercise, even for a short period. Staring into space would be better than refreshing Facebook.

Make New Norms

Not that long ago, you could be fired for not paying attention during a meeting or class; now, many openly use their phones or laptops. Bosses could set a better work culture by providing charging stations at meetings where everyone could leave their phones, then focus on the discussion at hand. Mr. Eyal suggests you try shaming friends who have bad habits-if you do it politely. If someone is not listening to you at dinner, ask, “Is everything OK?” The answer might start an important conversation.

Tech Should Help

The social-media industry has a responsibility here, too. Since companies usually know exactly how much time users spend on their apps, they should offer help to people who have problem behavior. And for the rest of us, let’s encourage app makers to make their products more helpful, not more demanding of our time.

【1】What does the underlined word “hijack” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A．Wash.

B．Hurt.

C．Control.

D．Empty.

【2】Why does Mr.Eyal save articles to Pocket?

A．To rest his tired brain.

B．To refresh his Facebook immediately.

C．To get more time to exercise.

D．To avoid being attracted by social media.

【3】What is the best title of this passage?

A．Take a break from busy life.

B．Free your brain from social media.

C．Separate social life from your work.

D．Keep your life away from apps.

【4】What can we infer from the passage?

A．The social-media industry should make more app products.

B．People with problem behavior should ask brain scientists for help.

C．We should decide when to connect to social media by ourselves.

D．A company with charging stations must have a better work culture.

26、Many countries are fighting against food waste. What are they doing to stop it?

China has been spread a nationwide activity called “Clear Your Plate” since 2013. This year, some restaurants are encouraging people to order food using the formula ( 公 式 ) “N-1”. “N” stands for the number of diners at a table. If there are 6 people at your table, you only order 5 dishes.

In 2016, France passed a law that stop the stores from throwing away unsold food. If it’s still safe to eat, the food must be given to charity (慈善机构); if not, it goes to farmers for use as animal feed.

In 2019, the US said it encourages food companies to use the phrase “best if used by” for date labeling (标签). This helps shoppers better understand that they don’t need to throw food out after the printed date passes if the food is stored correctly.

In Japan, there are many food banks. People and the stores can offer the rest of food to them and they will provide the food to those in need.

In 2016, South Korea started to ask people to pay for throwing away food. There are scales  ( 称 )  on trash bins that are used to weigh the food. One ton of food waste costs 1.5 million won (8, 700  yuan).

【1】How will you order the dishes according to a nationwide activity in China, if you and your 5 friends go to the restaurants to have dinners?

A.I will order some delicious food all over China.

B.I will order some food by asking my friends’ suggestions.

C.I will order some food and give the rest of food to the farmers.

D.I will order some food using the formula “N-1”.

【2】Which country had a law to stop the shops from throwing away unsold food?

A.Japan. B.France. C.The US. D.South Korea.

【3】What can people do in Japan if they cannot eat all the food?

A.They can offer the food to charity as animal feed.

B.They can give food to those in need in the countryside.

C.They can provide the food to the food banks.

D.They can put the food into the stores.

【4】How much will you pay for the 2 ton of food waste in South Korea?

A.8, 700 yuan. B.17, 400 yuan.

【5】What do we learn from the passage?

A.Many countries try their best to save food.

B.A large amount of food will be stored correctly.

C.Saving food is a nationwide activity.

D.Many countries have passed laws against food wasting.
