When connected electronically, they are away from physical reality.People have been influenced to bee technology addicted. One survey reported that “addicted” was the word most monly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices. One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol.The main goal of technology panies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life. They have successfully created a cultural disease. Consumers willingly give up their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern.I see people trapped in a pathological(病态的)relationship with timesucking technology, where they serve technology more than technology serves them. I call this technology servitude. I am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money.What is a healthy use of technology devices? That is the vital question. Who is really in charge of my life? That is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology. When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, bee the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology. Mae West is famous for proclaiming the wisdom that “too much of a good thing is wonderful.” But its time to discover that it does not work for technology.Richard Fernandez, an executive coach at Google acknowledged that “we can be swept away by our technologies.” To break the grand digital connection people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without todays overused technology.5. The underlined word “allure” in Paragraph 2 probably means _A. advantage B. attractionC. adaption D. attempt6. From the passage, technology panies aim to _A. attract people to buy their productsB. provide the latest informationC. improve peoples quality of lifeD. deal with cultural diseases7. It can be inferred from this passage that people _A. consider too much technology wonderfulB. have realized the harm of hightech devicesC. can regain freedom without hightech devicesD. may enjoy life better without overused technology8. Whats the authors attitude towards the overusing of hightech devices?A. Neutral. B. Sceptical.C. Disapproving. D. Sympathetic.答案与解析【文章大意】本文作者指出了人们过度使用科技的许多弊端，反对大众对高科技设备的过度依赖。5. 答案B解析词义猜测题。根据词汇所在句子One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol.可知，allure意为“吸引”。句意：一项研究表明：与睡眠和烟酒相比，人们对于抵制社会媒体更难做到。6. 答案A解析细节理解题。根据The main goal of technology panies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life.可知，从这篇文章来看，技术公司目标是吸引人们来买它们的产品，故A项正确。7. 答案D解析判断推理题。根据文章最后一句话To break the grand digital connection people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without todays overused technology.可推断出：人们如果不过度使用依赖科技，就可以更好地享受生活。8. 答案C解析判断推理题。根据全文内容来看，作者指出了人们过度使用科技的众多弊端，所以作者对高科技设备的态度应该是“disapproving”反对的。故C项正确。The power of humor and laughter is numerous. They entertain us and make us feel good. But, above all, we have discovered that humor and laughter are the best medicine. They relieve pain, reduce stress and anxiety, and are antiaging and longevity facilitators.They are extremely necessary for helping us to find and maintain a balance between life and work. However, they are slipping away from us. We have bee far too serious. The only ones who still enjoy humor, laughter, fun and play to the fullest are young children. Children tend to laugh an average of 200 times a day. For adults, however, it is a totally different story.In the 1950s people laughed on average 18 times a day. Today, we are lucky if we average between 46 times a day.As a matter of fact, a recent study found that people laugh 6 more times in the presence of one person but 30 more times in a group of people. You can get a chuckle(咯咯笑)from jokes you get on the Internet, but it is not the same as belly jiggling laughter(a deep laugh)you get when you interact with others.Socializing with friends and relatives was much looked forward to. However, this is no longer the case. In fact, the majority of people can hardly find time, nor do they have the inclination towards socializing outside home. They turn to electronic media such as television, puters, the Internet, videos, CDs, and audio equipment, which can provide them with instant selfentertainment at the push of a button.The workplace does not fare(进展)much better. Due to the pressures to produce more in the same or fewer hours available and to pete, for example, in a manufacturing field with cheaper labor elsewhere in the world, humor and laughter in the workplace have gradually eroded(逐渐毁坏)away.I have developed a real appreciation, perhaps closer to a strong desire for the power of humor and laughter. This encouraged me to write my first book titled “The Power of Humor” and subsequently my second book titled “Kids Say the Goggonest Things” based on the natural humor, laughter, play and fun that kids experience and they freely share with parents, grandparents and teachers.From writing about humor and laughter, people start to ask me to speak up for them. To date, I have developed a number of humorlaughter topics that I use in my keynote presentations.

The fourth paragraph mainly tells us that _A. getting a deep laugh nowadays is difficultB. we can entertain ourselves with the help of the InternetC. people laugh more heartily when spending time with othersD. researchers have made a new discovery about the effect of laughter10.
