【題目】閱讀下面的短文和問題,根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,在相應題號后的橫線上寫下相關信息,完成對該問題的回答。答語要意思清楚,結(jié)構(gòu)正確,書寫工整。
When you’re sitting at your computer, do you work all day without a break? Or do you allow yourself to become distracted (分心)now and again ... to open a few extra tabs, check social media, read a bit of news, keep up with the latest fashion trends, and maybe catch up on some celebrity gossip.
Stop! You’re ‘cyberloafing’. This word is a combination of ‘ cyber’, which means ‘related to computers’, and ‘loafing’, which means ‘ relaxing in a lazy way ’ . We do it, and we do it a lot. A study from the University of Texas suggests we are guilty of this form of procrastination (拖延)for 14% of our working day. On a Friday afternoon, I expect it’s more than that.
I’ll admit to losing myself in cyberloafing. In fact, I’ve already done it in the course of writing this story. Okay, more than once. It can damage your productivity and even your career because according to the University of Texas research, each time a worker gets distracted by the Internet, it takes an average of 23 minutes to get back to work.
More than that, cyberloafing has a dark side, according to a report published in The Journal of Psychosocial Research on Cyberspace. It argues that cyberloafing is connected to several negative personality qualities. People who cyberloaf are more likely to be selfish and tricky.
Why do we do it? For some, it’s most likely an escape from what they’re supposed to be doing. Others might get a feeling of satisfaction from finding a great deal online.
When you have the whole world of the Internet at your fingertips, it’s hard to resist.
How do we solve this problem? If you can truly ask yourself why you are cyberloafing,then that can help identify the base problem. And if that sounds like too much hard work,you could just switch off the Internet for a couple of hours!
So,in the meantime,let me just close those extra tabs.
【1】How is the word "cyberloafing" formed?(不多于8個單詞)
【2】What can cyberloafing damage?(不多于6個單詞)
【3】Why do people do "cyberloafing"?(不多于13個單詞)
【答案】
【1】It is a combination of ‘cyber’ and ‘loafing’.
【2】Your productivity and even your career / Your productivity and career.
【3】To escape from what they are doing or get a feeling of satisfaction.
【解析】當你坐在電腦前,你是不是經(jīng)常讓自己變得分心呢,比如工作的同時又打開一些額外的標簽,查看一下社交媒體,閱讀一下新聞,跟蹤一下時尚,或者順便扒一扒名人八卦?趕緊喊“停!”這時候你正蕩在網(wǎng)上“磨洋工”!
【1】根據(jù)第二段第二句This word is a combination of ‘ cyber’, which means ‘related to computers’, and ‘loafing’, which means ‘ relaxing in a lazy way ’可知,‘cyberloafing’這個單詞是由‘cyber’和‘loafing’構(gòu)成的。
【2】根據(jù)第三段第三句話It can damage your productivity and even your career because according to the University of Texas research, each time a worker gets distracted by the Internet, it takes an average of 23 minutes to get back to work. 根據(jù)德克薩斯大學的研究,人每次被互聯(lián)網(wǎng)分心時,平均需要23分鐘才能回到工作上來,因此,它會損害你的工作效率甚至你的事業(yè)。
【3】根據(jù)文章第五段For some, it’s most likely an escape from what they’re supposed to be doing. Others might get a feeling of satisfaction from finding a great deal online.通過在網(wǎng)上閑蕩,一部分人是為了逃避他們正在做的事情,另一部分是為了得到一種滿足的感覺。

【題目】Holidays are the main times to see both sides of my family.
At Thanksgiving, my mom, dad, brother and I go to my dad’s side of the family, my grandpa’s. When I was in 2nd grade, my grandma got in a car accident only miles from their house. At the time, I was in school. I was checked out and brought to church. Since then, holidays have never been the same. However, Thanksgiving is still good, although it would be better with grandma. At my grandpa’s house, my uncle, aunt, dad and mom all get the dishes prepared for the feast. When the final family members arrive, and the food is downstairs, we dig in, the little ones first.
Christmas is a little different. We have Christmas with my mom’s side at my uncle’s house, usually on Christmas Eve. We have dinner with homemade cupcakes for dessert, and relax until it is time to open presents. The kids get the most and we usually take a family photo. After everybody’s gifts have been opened, my family say goodbye and go home.
Easter has been a little different in the past few years. It started 3 years ago, when my family hosted my mom’s side of the family. We put our dishes we made for the day on the counter. We kids go downstairs and play ping-pong or football. We are called up when everything is ready and begin eating. The kids go to a table in the living room, and the adults use the kitchen table. That is usually the Easter day for us.
Each tradition gets better and better each year for some reason. I wonder what new traditions my family might come up with in the coming years.
【1】What happened to the writer when he was in 2nd grade?
A. He lost his grandma.
B. He dropped out of school.
C. He felt Thanksgiving was not as good as before.
D. He didn’t like going to his mum’s side of the family.
【2】We can learn from the passage that on Christmas, .
A. a family photo is usually taken
B. presents are only given to the kids
C. the kids play ping-pong or football
D. the adults have dinner in the kitchen
【3】How does the writer feel about future holidays with his family?
