【正文】 gewatching(瘋狂觀看) your favourite TV series is bad for your brain, a neurologist has warned. Dr Randall Wright, based in Texas, said the need to watch episode(一集) after episode has a similar effect on the brain to gambling. What39。s more, Dr Wright added that sitting in front of the screen for hours creates an 39。unhealthy environment39。. The past time often leads to social isolation(孤立), snacking on junk food and a lack of exercise and sleep, which, over time, is bad for the brain, he said. But he said it is possible to get rid of the side effects of being a couch potato with four tips. When you let auto play start the next episode so you can find out what happens next, your brain receives positive feedback, Dr Wright wrote in an article for the Houston Methodist Hospital. This instant satisfaction is similar to gambling(賭博), where even after a win, you are not satisfied and want to continue playing. With bingewatching, you are not satisfied with stopping after episode five and want to continue watching. This cycle coupled with the snacking can lead to unhealthy changes in your brain and body over time. Dr Wright said: Bingewatching itself is not bad. It bees problematic when watching a third, fourth or fifth episode replaces healthy activities. Dr Wright suggested exercising before a bingewatching TV – or even in between episodes – because activity helps the brain generate new cells. Setting an alarm can be helpful for reminding yourself to go to sleep at a decent time. Spending too much time in isolation can lead to depression, Dr Wright said, so it39。s important to balance TV viewing with socializing. As for the snacks, Dr Wright advises to stay away from salty, fatty, calorific foods. Research has shown unhealthy eating while bingewatching can lead to piling on the pounds.（1）Which is NOT the bad effects caused by Bingewatching? junk food. little exercise. social munication. having enough sleep.（2）What can be implied in the passage? itself is bad. is similar to gambling in some way. are content with watching episode after episode. is unlikely to get rid of the bad effects of Bingewatching.（3）What is the main idea of the last paragraph? away from snacks matters. should balance TV viewing with socializing. gives suggestions about dealing with bingewatching TV. an alarm reminds yourself to go to bed on time.（4）What can be the best title for the passage? no to gambling. for long is harmful., Bad for brain. series have bad influences on your brain.【答案】 （1）C（2）B（3）C（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了刷劇對人的大腦有害，并提出了克服刷劇危害的四條建議。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“The past time often leads to social isolation(孤立), snacking on junk food and a lack of exercise and sleep, which, over time, is bad for the brain, he said. ”可知 瘋狂刷劇可能會帶來的危害有：導致人們社交孤立，吃過多垃圾食品，缺乏運動和睡眠等，故選C。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“This instant satisfaction is similar to gambling(賭博), where even after a win, you are not satisfied and want to continue playing.”可知Dr Wright認為刷劇就如同賭博一樣，贏了一場不滿足還想再玩，故選B。 （3）考查段落大意。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Dr Wright suggested exercising before a bingewatching TV… Setting an alarm can be helpful for reminding yourself to go to sleep at a decent time. it39。s important to balance TV viewing with socializing.

Keeping the mind occupied with tasks no matter how meaningless—keeps off (避開) negative emotions (情緒)，the study found . However , the bad news is that humans are seemingly born to be lazy in order to save energy , according to Professor Christopher Hsee, a behavioral(行為的)scientist at Chicago University . In a study , 98 students were asked to plete two surveys(調(diào)查). After they had pleted the first, they were made to wait 15 minutes to receive the next one. They were given a choice of either handing in the first survey nearby or at a more distant location they had to walk to. Whichever option they chose, they received a chocolate bar. It turned out that approximately(大約) two – thirds (68 students ) chose the lazy option(選項). Those who had taken the walk reported feeling happier than those who had stayed put(呆在原處). Prof. Hsee concluded that keeping busy helped keep people happy. He said the findings , reported in the journal Psychological Science , had policy implications (政策意義). Governments may increase the happiness of idle (閑散的) citizens by having them build bridges that are actually useless, he proposed (建議). At the individual(個人的)level, he advised, Get up and do something . Anything. Even if there really is no point to what you are doing, you will feel better for it. He added , Incidentally , thinking deeply or engaging in selfreflection(反省)counts as keeping busy, too. You do not need to be running around. You just need to be engaged, either physically or mentally.（1）Why can keeping busy make people happy ? can help people get rid of laziness. can make people sleep better. can help get rid of negative emotions(負面情緒) can give people a sense of achievement（2）Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? finding may contribute to politics. officials have taken Prof. Hsee39。s advice. the study half students handed in the first survey nearby. can increase citizens39。 happiness by building bridges.（3）What can we infer（推斷）from the passage? by keeping working all the time can you gain happiness. .Hsee39。s finding was published in Psychological Science. busy can add to the possibility of being happy. is born to be lazy.（4）What is the author39。s purpose in writing this passage ? explain what happiness is . advise people not to sit around(坐著啥也不做). advise people to do what they like to. show people how to take life correctly.【答案】 （1）C（2）A（3）C（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇議論文，保持忙碌能擺脫負面情緒，讓人快樂起來。作者建議人們不要坐著啥也不做。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“Keeping the mind occupied with tasks – no matter how meaningless—keeps off (避開) negative emotions (情緒)，t
