Luckily, my phWhen I was a yung girl in 8th grade, my classmates tld me hw they met new friends and even chatted with celebrities n the Internet. I was intrigued and wanted t experience these exciting things. I pened an nline accunt; this was the beginning f my jurney thrugh the virtual wrld. As time went by, I became accustmed t checking scial media mre frequently. I buried myself in scial media, chatting with friends and sharing my life with them. Scial media was a surce f happiness and mre s, it brught a sense f satisfactin, pain, and frustratin.
My newfund interest started interfering (干扰) with my schlwrk. Instead f checking my schl ntes in time as usual, I checked scial media mre ften t see what was happening with my friends’ lives. But I later discvered that by becming mre aware f ther peple’s lives, I became less in tune with myself. I was mre fcused n the illusins scial media presented than the realities f my life. Thus, I started t sense depressin, jealusy and hatred as a result f cmparing my life with thers. And I became much like what the peple in the virtual wrld expected f me.
ne went missing and my mther refused t get me a new ne. I felt sad and lnely. Hwever, her refusal led t smething mre meaningful t my life. Within a mnth, I became less cncerned abut ther peple’s lives and mre cncerned abut my curses. And I had mre time t study and sleep.
Lack f scial media als made me realize that scial media had been interfering with my study habits and my private life. Fr example, I had n privacy. Anyne wh had access t my scial media prfiles culd easily find ut where I lived. Mrever, I smetimes spent 15 hurs brwsing thrugh scial media withut ding anything prductive.
After examining my use f scial media, I decided nt t entirely quit scial media, but t change the way I use them. I unfllwed sites that didn’t cntribute t psitive r educative aspects f my life. I nly use scial media t spread psitive messages and cnnect with thers. Scial media is nt inherently bad, but it becmes terrible when we are addicted t it.

Researchers frm Aarhus University and University f Gthenburg have prduced new maps f mammals (哺乳动物) t date cnnecting all living and recently extinct mammal kinds-nearly 6,000 in ttal.
Earlier similar studies always left ut ne key grup f mammals: species driven t extinctin by humans.
Scientists ften use these maps t predict hw climate change will affect species. And because the new nes shw species’ ftprints, they help scientists better see many species have had their numbers greatly reduced by humans, fr example, thrugh ver hunting and the destrying f their habitats.
“Brwn bears may lead us t think f Alaska r Russia tday but they used t cver all the way frm Mexic t Nrthern Africa befre they were widely hunted by humans.” said Faurby.
We usually think large mammals like elephants and lins live in Africa tday, but fr mst f the last 30 millin years, big animals traveled all ver the Earth. It was nly recently that humans drve many f these large mammals extinct, leaving a wrld depauperate f large mammals.
“Even sme huge species that we think f as prehistric, lived up t the time the Great Pyramid was being built,” Davis said.
Making a database that included every species f mammal was n easy task. It tk the research team at Aarhus University mnths just t piece tgether existing datasets and fill in missing hles in the data.
Marking ftprints n the map fr them was even harder. The scientists used bth DNA infrmatin and data frm sme dig sites arund the wrld with a pwerful new cmputer algrithm (算法) t predict where the extinct species fit in with mammals that are alive tday.
8．What’s the writer’s attitude twards the maps?
A．Psitive.B．Cncerned.C．UnclearD．Dubtful.
9．What d we knw abut large animals?
A．Elephants and lins are all ver the wrld nw.
B．They died ut lng befre the Pyramids were built.
C．Brwn bears were nce limited t Alaska r Russia.
D．They have been greatly affected by human activities.
10．What des the underlined phrase “depauperate f” mean in paragraph 5?
A．Shrt f.B．Full f.C．Famus fr.D．Suitable fr.
11．What’s the main idea f the last tw paragraphs?
A．The cmputer algrithm is f great use.
B．It tk ages t find DNA evidence.
C．Missing hles are pieced tgether.
D．It tk a lt t cmplete the task.
D the endless stream f messages and the thught f replying t unpened texts give yu anxiety? Can the grup chat feel s verwhelming that yu want t thrw yur phne ut f the windw? Texting anxiety is a real thing, and mre cmmn than yu’d think.
In the last 25 years, texting has changed the way we cmmunicate greatly. And many wuld argue, nt fr the better. The average persn in 2022 checks their phne 262 times a day, up frm a daily average f 80 in 2016. Overwhelmed, many end up cnsciusly r uncnsciusly pting ut, stpping respnding t lved nes and friends. Unfrtunately, nt everyne will be understanding.
Leah Aguirre, a psychtherapist explains that text cnversatins are usually a surce f anxiety as they cme with a lt f uncertainty. “We can’t predict hw smene will respnd, if they will respnd, r hw quickly they will respnd. We can’t cntrl ther peple’s actins r behavir r hw they think and interpret (解读) things, and fr peple that are already prne t anxiety this can be hard t cpe with.”
Aguirre says this is reflected in a physical reactin, tightness in the chest, tensins, r increased heart rate. Yu als may feel a little mre n edge r shrt with thers, cmpulsively check yur phne r have bsessive and intrusive thughts abut the text cnversatin. Simply hearing a ntificatin (通知), if ur phne is ut f reach, causes the brain chemicals assciated with stress t spike.
As well as the persnal effects, text anxiety can put a strain n yur relatinships with friends and lved nes. A 2018 study fund that rmantic partnerships and friendships are far mre successful when yu and the ther persn have a similar texting style. If bth parties are quick respnders, the relatinship is less likely t hit the rcks. Similarly, if all parties are happy t g hurs, days, even weeks between respnses, then everyne is happy.
Establishing a texting schedule with peple yu interact with frequently is ne way f reducing sme f the stress if yu have different texting styles. Aguirre suggests limiting the amunt f time yu are n yur phne als helps with the anxiety. “By cancelling r reducing hw much cntact yu have with the surce f anxiety, yu’ll feel sme relief,” she says.
“Yu can give yurself a pep talk, tell yurself that yu are kay and that yu have n cntrl ver anther persn’s respnse r behavir. Remind yurself that this is just a phne r a text message and that, big picture, yu are kay and will be kay.”
12．The purpse f Paragraph 2 is t____________ .
A．demnstrate the level f texting anxiety
B．stress the imprtance f cmmunicatin
C．analyze the cause f trubled relatinships
D．intrduce the increasing use f cell phnes
13．What des the underlined phrase “n edge” in Paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A．Frightened.B．Interested.C．Excited.D．Nervus.
14．What can we infer frm the passage?
A．Putting phnes n “silence” mde increases anxiety.
B．We shuld ask ur partners t change their texting styles.
C．Creating a texting plan with thers helps reduce text anxiety.
D．Texting anxiety is ften caused by the time taken t answer the texts.
15．What wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A．A texting schedule: The final way ut
B．Texting anxiety: Prblems and slutins
C．Text cnversatins: Strengths and weaknesses
D．A new perspective: Hw much texting is t much
