【題目】
Some apps highlight (凸顯)when a person is online—and then share the information with the followers. Researchers at the University of Washington say that people could have more control over whether to show their online status (狀態(tài))in this case.
To find out whether people realize the apps are sharing this information and whether these indicators (標(biāo)識)change how people behave online, the research team carried out a study among users of different apps.
The team asked participants if the apps they used showed their online status to their network. Almost 90% of the participants correctly named at least one of the apps they used that had online status indicators. But for at least one app they used, 62. 5% answered “not sure” and 35. 5% answered "no.” (Actually the app did.) The researchers also asked participants whether they noticed when others were online, whether they thought others noticed when they were online, and whether they had changed their own behavior because they did or didn't want to appear online.
The answers show that many people misunderstand online status indicators but still carefully shape their behavior to control how they are displayed to others. More than half of the participants reported that they had suspected ('懷疑有)that someone had noticed their status. Meanwhile, over half reported that they had logged on to an app just to check someone else5s status. And 43% of the participants mentioned changing their settings or behavior because they were trying to avoid one specific person.
“We see this repeated way of people changing their behavior to meet the demands of technology一as opposed to technology adapting to us and meeting our needs,” said Lucy Simko, a UW doctoral student in the Allen School That means people are choosing to go online not because they want to do something there but because it's important that their status indicator is projecting the right thing at the right time.
“Now, many people are working from home and socializing only online to fight the coronavirus pandemic (新冠疫情)，and some employees use their online status to indicate that they are working and available for meetings," the team says. So there's an opportunity to think about how future development of this technology could change how people use online status indicators.
Your comfort zone is a place, activity, situation or psychological state in which you feel free from anxiety and things are within your ability or control. But stepping out of it also has positive results.
When you break free and try new things, you'll be more productive and get more unexpected changes. That's because by living outside your comfort zone when you choose to, you can experience uncertainty in a controlled, manageable environment, which can prepare you for future life changes that force you out of it. Besides, as you step out of your comfort zone, productive discomfort becomes more normal to you, and you'll be willing to push further before your performance falls off.
Here are some ways to break out of your comfort zone without going too far:
Do everyday things differently. Ride your bike instead of taking the bus to school. Try a different diet. Use a new operating system. Don't be upset if things don't work out the way you planned.
Break the activity down into small steps. If you're frightened or overwhelmed (難以承受的)by the challenge you\e picked for yourself, don't do it at once. You can make it a multi-step process that will let you slowly climb that mountain.
Trust yourself and make snap decisions. Perhaps you are more comfortable weighing all of the possible choices several times, but sometimes making a snap call is in order, just to get things moving. Doing so can help you kickstart your personal projects and teach you to trust your judgment.
Yet, with all its possible benefits, you can't live outside of your comfort zone all the time. You need to come back from time to time to review your experiences. Take time to reflect on your experiences so you can apply the benefits you've got to your day-to-day activities.
Your comfort zone is neither a good or bad thing. It's a natural state that most people trend towards (傾向于). Leaving it means increased risk and anxiety, which can have positive and negative results, but don't demonize (妖魔化)your comfort zone as something holding you hack. We all need that headspace where we're least anxious and stressed so we can process the benefits we get when we leave it.
【1】The word "snap” in Paragraph 6 probably means "______________" .
A.quickB.clearC.balancedD.thoughtful
【2】Which might be the best example of breaking out of your comfort zone without going too far?
A.You went shopping when you were bored or upset.
B.You decided to watch a movie before the final exam.
C.You tried on all the shirts in a store to find the one you wanted.
D.You walked to school today although you prefer riding your bike.
【3】The writer probably agrees that ______________.
A.experiencing uncertainty in a controlled way has negative effects
B.making a change to our routine helps to increase our productivity
C.reducing stress and risk is what we need to bring out the best in us
D.breaking activities down into small steps leads to greater achievements
【4】What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To explain the reasons to step out of the comfort zone.
B.To advise people to treat the comfort zone in a proper way.
C.To introduce some ways of improving day-to-day performance.
D.To stress the importance of dealing with uncomfortable moments.

SHANGHAI——Health researchers in Shanghai are calling for more protection for young children as the latest research shows about half of the children are suffering（受折磨）from secondhand smoke.
About 45% of children suffer passive（被動的）smoking in families, 50% in public places, and almost 6% on public transportation, shows a research reported by the Shanghai Children's Medical Center (SCMC)on Tuesday.
"Not only adults but also children and newborn babies are at risk for the bad effects of passive smoking," said Tang Jingyan, a doctor. Research has shown that children who are living in a secondhand smoke situation will suffer from more colds, coughs and sore throats, and they are more likely to suffer from pneumonia(肺炎）and will have a higher risk of developing cancer. Doctors even suggested that children suffering passive smoking are more likely to have behavioral problems and may not develop mentally(智力上) as quickly as other children.
Other research by the SCMC has found that more than 80% of child patients in the center live in a smoke-filled household, where one or both parents smoke. "Though doctors have stressed the harm of passive smoking over and over, it is still hard to reach a totally smoke-free home," said a doctor named Zhang Yiwen. Parents often want to smoke even though the have learned the harmful effects of secondhand smoke.
China has 540 million people suffering from passive smoke,180 million of the younger than 15, the age of smokers is also getting lower, "earlier reports said. "There are more young smokers than before. You can see young people wearing a school uniform(校服）and carrying a schoolbag light a cigarette(香煙）on the street. Some of them are even girl students," said Jing Xingming, a professor. "Children like to copy adults, especially their parents. If parents often smoke at home, it is very likely children will develop a smoking habit which can cause a bad circle," Jin said.
Reports from the Ministry of Health said China has about 350 million smokers, of whom 15 million are underage smokers. Also, around 40 million of the country's 130 million children aged between 13 and 18 had tried smoking, and 15 million had become addicted to(上癮) smoking.
【1】What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.The bad effects of passive smoking.B.The influences of adults to children.
C.The bad living situations of children.D.The attitude towards children smoking.
【2】What can we learn from the passage?
A.About 45% of children suffer passive smoking in public places.
B.About 40 million children aged between 13 to 18 tried smoking.
C.About 350 million children are heavy smokers in China.
D.About 80% of the children in the SCMC smoke heavily.
