Technlgy use seems t be the new wave f addictin hitting peple f all ages. Its extreme use can be cmpared t the use f drugs, which is called Plug-in Herin.
The next time yu’re in a crwded public place, lk at the peple arund yu. It’s hard t find smene wh isn’t glued t the tiny screen, fingers mving at lightning speeds, texting their friends, e-mailing cwrkers r listening t music. It may seem ridiculus that smene is that addicted t such a small bject. I’ve seen peple wh seem t be at their wits’ end if their phne r iPad has been taken away, lst r left at hme.
Sme peple may ask, “What’s wrng with technlgy use? It’s a way fr peple t cmmunicate.” While this is true, the veruse f technlgy isn’t always apprpriate in certain settings. Schls are becming stricter abut the use f cell phnes, iPds and ther electrnics in classrms. Varius wrkplaces have signs hanging n their walls warning emplyees that “Cell phne use is nt permitted” r “Cell phnes are frbidden”. On the first warning yu will be sent hme, and n the secnd warning yu will be fired.
Electrnics may be a way fr peple t cmmunicate and stay in tuch with each ther, but the disadvantages may utweigh the benefits. Peple are lsing the ability t hld face-t-face cnversatins with thers. Hwever, it’s hard t avid electrnics in this day and age because almst everything is turning int an electrnic frmat. Bks, riginally meant fr paper design, are nw being transferred t electrnic frms. Pht albums, and even yearbks, can nw be viewed via the Internet. With this grwing trend, future generatins are bund t becme even mre addicted t technlgy.
Is there a cure fr electrnic addictin? Simply turning electrnics ff fr an hur r tw a day may help t an extent, but it will nt cmpletely rid electrnic addictin. There nly seems t be ne cure left, and it may be the hardest: self cntrl.
32. What is Plug-in Herin?
A. The grwing ppularity f electrnics.
B. The serius cnsequences f technlgy use.
C. The future pssibility f technlgy develpment.
D. The unreasnable dependence n electrnics.
33. The secnd paragraph is intended t __________.
A. shw peple’s addictin t electrnics
B. persuade peple t quit electrnics
C. prve electrnics are harmful t peple
D. tell peple it is ridiculus t use electrnics
34. Why is it difficult t avid electrnics nwadays?
A. Peple have n interest in traditinal paper designs.
B. Mre infrmatin tends t be available in electrnic frms.
C. It is the nly way peple stay in tuch with each ther.
D. Peple have fewer chances t cmmunicate in persn.
35. The writer’s attitude t the veruse f technlgy can be best described as __________.
A. apprving B. indifferent C. critical D. dubtful

Critical thinking is the art f using reasn t analyze ideas and dig deeper t get t ur true ptential. It desn’t mean yu’re thinking harder r lnger. 36 Here are sme tips and ideas t help yu build a fundatin fr critical thinking.
Questin yur assumptins. We make a lt f assumptins abut almst everything. It’s hw ur brain prcesses certain pieces f infrmatin, and hw we get alng in everyday life. Yu culd say they are the fundatin f ur critical framewrk. 37 Then the whle fundatin needs t be rebuilt, frm the bttm up.
Dn’t take infrmatin n authrity until yu've investigated it yurself. Instead f duble-checking everything anyne says, we tend t label infrmatin as either cming frm a trustwrthy r nt trustwrthy surce. This keeps us frm duble-checking every piece f infrmatin that cmes ur way, saving time and energy. But it als keeps us frm getting t the bttm f things we think f as cming frm a trustwrthy surce, even when they dn’t. 38
Put yurself in ther peple’s shes. Empathy can als help yu develp yur critical thinking skills. 39 Yu may find that a little understanding facilitates a deeper insight int ther peple and their behavir. The deeper yur insight int yurself and thers, the wiser yur decisins will be.
40 There is n way t learn better than learning frm yur friends. If yu nly want t be a big fish swimming in the little pnd just because yur eg（自负）feels gd, keep this part. If yu are wndering abut hw t develp critical skills, make friends with smart peple and thrw away yur eg.
A．Surrund yurself with peple smarter than yu.
B．Actually, it’s abut thinking better.
C．Be smene that peple knw that they can cunt n.
D．But what if they turned ut t be wrng, r at least nt entirely truthful?
E．Yu shuld nt judge thers until yu fully understand their situatin.
F．S what is published in a magazine r nline desn’t mean it’s necessarily true.
G．The reasn is that understanding des nt always g with the right actin.

which he cmpleted 17 murals f victims and ther figures.
Tday, Grammer’s effrts have 53 int a mvement. He has als painted murals in dark places arund the wrld that seriusly need sme light. Irnically(讽刺地), the first painting, n the chimney in Paradise, existed fr just several mnths, 54 the bulldzer（推土机）was a merciless art critic. But Grammer culdn’t be mre pleased abut it, which means the spirit f Paradise is 55 again.
