2. Passage TenNowadays, children heavily cling to digital devices such as computers and smart phones.Some spend up to six hours a day on their digital devices.They can be playing games online with people elsewhere, updating their status on social media, texting friends, or looking for the latest apps to download to their computers or smart phones.This worried Martin Strott.He is the headmaster of the Old Hall School in Wellington, England.He was so concerned that he challenged his students to take part in a week of (“digital detox”), a program to reduce their reliance on digital devices.Mr.Strott told the local newspaper, the Shropshire Star, that too much screen time would affect the development of their social skills.At another interview with a magazine, he mentioned that this over-reliance on digital devices “takes away family time and reduces their chances of face-to-face communication”.The parents are happy with the program.But what about the children? Nine-year-old Fred usually spends around two hours on his digital devices at home after school and around 12 hours on weekends.For him, the digital detox experience was “really hard”.He said that he had been engaged in many interesting outdoor activities organized by the headmaster, but still missed his phone and online games.The idea of keeping children away from their digital devices for a while to prevent too much dependence on them is not particularly new.There have been similar practices in the United States.But are they effective in the long run? According to Mr.Strott, even if kids go back to their digital devices, the hope is that at least they will think about how they will use their time.What does the term “digital detox” (Para.2)mean?

2. Passage Twenty-FiveOnline dating has just been revealed to be one of the most common ways to start a relationship.But new research reveals that the concept is still highly flawed (有缺陷的).An analysis of 400 studies into online dating shows that while it offers access to plenty of other singles, users can be overwhelmed and put off by the volume of choice, defeating the purpose.The research, by Northwestern University and published in the journal Psychological Science in the public interest, found that the processes involved don’t lend themselves to forming strong relationships.The findings also indicated that the concept of an online profile (介绍)is not entirely useful and “can result in treating potential partners as mere objects”.Lead author Eli.J.Finkel explained, “Online dating is a terrific addition for singles to meet.However, there are two problems.” First, studying over seemingly endless lists of profiles of people one does not know, as on Match.com, does not reveal much about them.Second, it “overloads people and they end up shutting down,” he said.He compared it to shopping at “supermarkets of love” and said psychological research shows people presented with too many choices tend to make lazy and often poor decisions.The study’s authors also questioned the algorithms (算法)employed by sites such as eHarmony.com to match people based on their interests or personality—comparing it to having a real estate agent of love.While the algorithm may reduce the number of potential partners from thousands to a few, they may be as unsuitable for each other as two people meeting at random, Dr.Finkel explained, adding the chances are no better than finding a relationship by walking into any bar.“There’s no better way to figure out whether you’re a match with somebody than talking to them over a coffee or beer,” Dr.Finkel said.According to Paragraph 2, online dating ().

4. Passage Twenty-FourSocial change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways.The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society.There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs.In addition, there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies.All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more areas of life to decision.In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same.And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least customary and undisputed.Within a society, social changes is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non-material, for example, in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early; in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposites; in the simple elements rather than in the complex ones; in form rather than in substance; and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in strange elements.Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual.For example, it comes more readily in human relations on a continuous scale rather than one with sharp dichotomies (一分为二).This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to Black American as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in “appearance between them and their white counterparts”.In the first paragraph, “greater tolerance” probably refers to ().

36. Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Most of us in the entrepreneurial community are blessed — or cursed — with higher-than-average ambition.Ambitious people strongly desire accomplishments and are willing to take more risks and spend more effort to get them.Overall, this is a positive quality, especially for people trying to build their own businesses.Apparently, if you’re more naturally driven to set goals, you are more likely to succeed.Actually, this isn’t always the case.In fact, in some cases, extreme ambition may end up doing more harm than good.One major side effect of excessive ambition is the tendency to focus too determinedly on one particular vision or end goal.This is problematic because it hinders your ability to adapt to new circumstances, which is vital if you want to be a successful entrepreneur.If a new competitor emerges to threaten your business, you may need to change direction, even if that means straying from your original vision.If you have too much ambition, you’ll find this hard, if not impossible.Few people are successful when they try to build their first brand.Unfortunately, for the most ambitious entrepreneurs, a failure is seen as disastrous, and impossible to recover from.It’s a clear departure from the intended plan toward the intended goal.For people with limited ambition, however, failure is viewed as something closer to reality.Remember, failure is inevitable, and every failure you survive is a learning experience.Ambitious people tend to be more materialistically successful than their non-ambitious counterparts.However, they’re only slightly happier than their less-ambitious counterparts, and tend to live significantly shorter lives.This implies that even though ambitious people are more likely to achieve conventional “success,” such success means nothing for their health and happiness—and if you don’t have health and happiness, what else could possibly matter?Clearly, some amount of ambition is good for your motivation.Without any ambition, you wouldn't start your own business, set or achieve goals and get far in life.But an excess of ambition can also be dangerous, putting you at risk of burnout, stubbornness and even a shorter life.What does the author think of most entrepreneurs?
