W:Well,Ive gone back to cash.I'm only using payment apps if that's the only option.(8)I'm tying to save money for a new phone,and I find that using cash rather than payment apps helps me to save.
M:But how?Money is money,isn't it?I don't think it matters whether you take it out to the bank and put it in your wallet or simply transfer from your bank account to the seller's bank account using an app.
W:No,I believe it does matter.It's a psychological phenomenon.(9)I believe we have less connection with the value of our money when we just tap the"Approve"buttons on our phones.
M:You might have a point.Since I stopped carrying cash around and started using my phone apps to pay,(10)may have developed a tendency to buy more small or non-essential items.
W:That's highly possible.Think about the amount of time we spend with our phones in our hands,and all the things we do with our phones.It sometimes seems that our phone is buying the product for us,not ourselves.

W:I believe so.If we spend a hundred puan in cash,we realize that we don't have that hundred puan to spend on something else.But if we're spending electronically,we are less likely to make that mental calculation.

If it doesn't,you thank it and neatly discard it.So,is the TV show inspiring people to tidy up? Firsthand accounts seem to indicate a small wave of people bringing piles of donation bags to used goods stores.One store received thousands of bags of used possessions in one day.January is usually the stores'slow season for donations because it's cold and people don't want to bother,but not this January.People seemed determined to clean up their homes.(18) One used bookstore received a month's worth of books in donations in a week when a man gave over fifty boxes of booes from his home.It seems Marie's TV show is having a big impact after all.

Passage Three
(22)In a recent study carried out by psychologists on the disruptive effects of smartphones,two groups of college students were given word search puzzles.The first group was told to complete the puzzles with its participants'smartphones in their Iine of sight.The second group,however,was told that the phones would interfere with the equipment in the experiment,and would need to be moved away from the testing area.Midway through the second group's solving of the puzzles,the experimenter called one of the phones and let it ring for a while before hanging up.(23)Many of the students in that group were unable to focus from then an,becoming anxious and performing more poorly than the first goup.
Use of electronics has also been known to lead to a decline in human interactions.Rather than having real-life conversations,many express emotions and engage in deep conversations through social media sites.Many students use their phones and computers during class for non-academic activities, which leads to poor grades.(24)Perhaps the most dramatic impact is the reduction in the amount of sleep,which leads to poor health and weight gain.
(25)Technology is a great tool;however,it's important to recognize its downsides.Lack of sleep, reduction of productivity and weight gain are only a few.If we're not careful about all these minor problems right now,the effect on the future generation is going to be much bigser.

C) 用手機(jī)軟件測(cè)視力。
D) 在一個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)室安裝音頻設(shè)備。
詳解 A)。短文開(kāi)頭提到，在心理學(xué)家最近進(jìn)行的一項(xiàng)關(guān)于智能手機(jī)破壞性影響的研究中，兩組大學(xué)生被要求做字謎游戲。因此答案為A)。
23. 關(guān)于第二組的許多受試學(xué)生在電話鈴響后的表現(xiàn)，我們了解到什么?
A) 鈴聲結(jié)束后他們才能繼續(xù)(字謎游戲)。
B) 他們無(wú)法繼續(xù)專(zhuān)注地完成任務(wù)。
C) 他們立刻拿起手機(jī)，回?fù)茈娫挕?/span>
D) 他們要求實(shí)驗(yàn)人員掛斷電話。
詳解 B)。短文中提到，在第二組學(xué)生解字謎的過(guò)程中，實(shí)驗(yàn)人員撥打了一位學(xué)生的手機(jī)，讓它響了一會(huì)才掛斷。之后，第二組的許多學(xué)生無(wú)法集中注意力，他們變得焦慮，表現(xiàn)得比第一組更差。因此答案為B)。
24. 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，使用智能手機(jī)最大的影響是什么?
A) 情感問(wèn)題增多。
B) 體育運(yùn)動(dòng)減少。

D) 學(xué)習(xí)成績(jī)退步。
詳解 C)。 短文提到，智能手機(jī)會(huì)帶來(lái)各種負(fù)面影響，如人際交往和學(xué)業(yè)問(wèn)題，但最大的影響是睡 眠時(shí)長(zhǎng)的縮短，這會(huì)導(dǎo)致健康狀況不佳和肥胖問(wèn)題。因此答案為C)。
25.講話者建議人們做什么?
A) 保護(hù)年輕一代的視力。
B) 采取有效措施提高生產(chǎn)力。
C) 認(rèn)識(shí)到科技的破壞作用。
D) 確保每天有充足的睡眠。
詳解 C) 。短文最后提到，科技是個(gè)偉大的工具，但認(rèn)識(shí)到它的負(fù)面作用是很重要的，睡眠的減少、 生產(chǎn)力的降低、肥胖等問(wèn)題僅僅是冰山一角。如果我們不注意這些小問(wèn)題，對(duì)后代的影響將會(huì)更大。由此可知，講話者建議人們要認(rèn)識(shí)到技術(shù)的破壞性影響。因此答案為C)。
