Yet when it dawned on me just how much time I was spending socialising, I realised I may be taking it to an extreme. I calculated that, on average, I was spending 22 hours or more each week on social activities. So, to see what would happen to my work output, health and wellbeing, I decided to try and cut out my social life entirely.I knew, at times, I filled my schedule simply out of fear of missing out (FOMO), but also as a way to shift focus away from my work. For one month, I declined all in-person activities with friends: going out for drinks; dinners; parties and non-work related events, to see if it would make me more productive, improve my focus and career prospects.On day one of the month-long experiment, I had to fight some anxiety over missing out. But as the days passed, I started to relax. I only had one option to consider for Saturday nightto stay homeand this limitation left me more satisfied in my decision. I felt more content working, reading or watching TV.While I found more time to work, I also noticed a change in my overall health. I found myself cooking more at home, doing daily exercise, getting to bed earlier each night, reading, and enjoying moments of rest and boredom throughout the day.Having no social life left me more free time than Id imagine. Such idle moments are vital for creativity, and mind wandering has been linked to creative problem solving. During the experiment I found myself regularly brainstorming new ideas and reimagining existing projects.Of course socialising is an important way to build work contacts. While one month of no social life did not impact my relationship with existing clients, if I had continued, it may harm my ability to build new ones.24. What did the author realize about his socializing?A. It was difficult for him to contact people.B. Its a necessary part of his life and work.C. He had spent too much time in socializing.D. He should have spent more time socializing.25. How did the author feel on the first day of his experiment?A. He felt anxious that he might be left out.B. He felt more energetic to get clown to work.C. He felt relaxed not having to contact people.D. He felt doubtful whether he could hold on.26. What benefit did the author find to let his mind wander lazily?A. He could have more time with his family.B. He could solve problems in a creative way.C. He could be more concentrated on his work.D. He could free himself from the work contacts.27. What would the author do after the experiment?A. Live a quiet life with his family away from the outside.B. Make a new social life with any possible customers.C. Spare some time regularly for creative thinking alone.D. Continue his work contacts with his customers.CReducing plastic waste isnt easy because the cheap material is found in almost every household item. Now, a delicious and nutritious solution has e up to help reduce our dependence on this environmental hazard.David Christian, the co-founder of Evoware, says the idea of creating the biodegradable (生物降解的) products came from concern at the countrys high pollution rate. Indonesia is home to four of the worlds worst polluted rivers. Since single-use packaging is a large contributor to the problem, Evoware decided to deal with that first.After investigating various materials, the pany settled on seaweed. Unlike , monly used for biodegradable containers, seaweed does not require resources like water or large amounts of space. Since Indonesian farmers already harvest more seaweed than they can sell, its easy for the pany to find the material.Though they will not reveal their production process, Evoware says the seaweed packaging contains no chemicals and is safe to consume. The pany has also invented single-use cups, which can break down 30 days after theyre thrown away.While replacing plastic with the seaweed products may seem appealing to most of us, it is a hard-sell in Indonesia. According to Christian, “The awareness to reduce single-use plastic is still very low. This makes our bioplastic unnecessary.” Also a factor is the cost, which is higher than using plastic. Hopefully, Evoware will succeed in convincing Indonesians and people worldwide that switching to their products will be helpful to protecting our beautiful planet.28. What problem did Evoware decide to deal with first?A. Ways to clean the four worst polluted rivers.B. Means to contribute to the countrys economy.C. How to deal with single-use packaging.D. What nutritious materials for people to use.29. Why did Evoware choose seaweed?A. It didnt require much space and was easy to get.B. It could be found everywhere in his country.C. It was most monly used for packaging.D. It grew thickly in most of the polluted rivers.30. What can we infer from Christians words?A. Their seaweed products have won government support.B. Their new products have received wordwide popularity.C. The cost of making seaweed products will be lowered soon.D. Sometimes its hard to get people to reduce the use of plastics.31. What does the underlined word “hard-sell” (in Para. 5) refer to?A. Something lasting long.B. Something hard to accept.C. Something easy to get.D. Something monly seen.DNaturally, parents praise their kids. They want to encourage their children every day. But when it es to building self-esteem (自尊) in children, praise doesnt always have a positive effect, according to a special edition of the journal Child Development. The issue, edited by Eddie and Thomas, is focused on research into how children develop a sense of self and building your childs confidence takes different skills than you might think.Eddie points out that children are born without a sense of self, but it doesnt take long before some kids have a lot of confidence and may feel superior to peers, while others may carry more self-doubt and see themselves as inferior. Yet no one really understands what causes children to view themselves the way they do. Surprisingly little is known about the origins of childrens self-concept,” Eddie said.Research has found that when kids have a warm, loving relationship with their parents, they develop higher self-esteem. However, when they are given endless praise that is inequal to their achievements, their self-esteem may drop.Instead of lavish praise, parents should focus on warmth to build self-esteem, researchers have foundspecifically, parents should show interest in their kids activities and share joy with them. This makes children feel noticed and valued. According to Eddies own research, children may develop lower self-esteem when their parents give them lots of positive and overstated praises. Too much praise can make children worry about disappointing their parents, and may lead to an unhealthy attitude toward failure. Other studies suggest that parents can teach children that failure is beneficial by encouraging kids to ask themselves: “Why didnt I achieve the result I wanted, and what can I do to change the oute in the future?”Additionally, its important for parents to encourage the belief that kids can develop basic abilities through devotion and hard work. Kids who are praised for their effort instead of their ability are more likely to develop a growth mindset, which have a positive impact on their confidence.32. What does the special edition of Child Development focus on?A. When is the best time to build a childs self-esteem.B. What effect praise has on a childs self understanding.C. How children develop their sense of self-esteem.D. How blaming and overpraise hurt a childs fidence.33. How does too much praise hurt childrens self-esteem?A. Theyll he afraid of failing and disappointing their parents.B. Theyll have a false understanding of their ability and fail.C. Theyll bee too proud to get along with other children.D. Theyll focus more on their advantages than their weaknesses.34. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Childrens effort will help build their confidence.B. Children should he taught the value of hard work.C. Praising a childs ability will make them happier.D. Some parents doubt if kids can develop their abilities.35. Which of the following is the passage mainly about?A. Praising a child for any reason helps build his self-esteem.B. How kids develop their sense of self-esteem differently.C. Why some kids have more self-doubt than the others.D. Participation and encouragement build a kids self-esteem.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。How to Age WellGetting older is inevitable, but you can slow the decline of aging with smart choices along the way.
