Along with a smartphone and an accompanying app, these trackers can report how many calories youve burned and the distance youve traveled. Still curious about yourself? You can also learn the number of stairs youve climbed and steps youve taken, metrics(度量) it had never occurred to me to wonder about.Not one to resist peer pressure, however, I paid $100 for a Fitbit Flex. I chose that brand on the basis of research: asking my friend Sari which tracker she used.The Fitbit website offered instructions on setting up my new tracker. I entered my height and gender (性别) and certain information I considered none_of_its_business:_birth date and weight. Then I established goals. The American Heart Association recommends we all walk 10 000 steps a day about five miles, and so does Fitbit. I decided 6 000 steps was a good place for me to start.I changed my tune when, on day one, I hit 6 000 steps and tiny LED lights flashed on my wristband. Confident enough now, I went back to my phone and upped my goal to 8 000 steps. OK. So I got a little obsessed (着迷). On day five at a department store, I decided to check my progress. my target number was just 275 steps away! I walked around the dress department watching my smartphone register each step I took. I hate to tell you how much pleasure this gave me.Now I always wear my tracker, not because Ive grown to love fitness but because I like being trendy and selfabsorbed. Last night I was leaving a restaurant when Fitbit emailed to congratulate me on walking more than 10 000 steps. Who wouldnt love a tool that turns your every footstep into an accomplishmen?【文章大章】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。如今随处可见人们健身时戴着健身追踪器；作者也买了一款健身追踪器，想通过锻炼让自己变得时尚迷人。作者从最开始的每天六千步到后来每天八千步，由最初的不自信到后来变得自信，且从中获得了很大的快乐。4Why do people wear fitness trackers while running?A.

We try to find different types of activities that can help us escape feelings of laziness or boredom. _1_ Solitude (独处) does not have to be uncomfortable or lonely. In fact, solitude and loneliness are very different things.The death of a loved one or the inability to find people who understand you can leave you feeling lonely. Even if you are surrounded by other people, its natural to experience an emptiness while longing for love or acceptance. _2_Geoffrey F. Fisher once said, “In cities, no one is quiet but many are lonely. _3_”We often fill loneliness with all types of unsatisfying activities. Young people would rather spend a Friday night out with strangers, than spend the night alone. Theyre looking for a way to kill time while they await true friendship. Then there are young adults in gangs where they dont really like their companions. _4_ Why does being alone scare us?Do not be afraid of silence. _5_ It teaches you how to truly listen. It teaches you to pay attention to whats going on inside of you. Only when we are alone can we have the space and peace we need to think without being outwardly influenced. It therefore becomes easier to make important decisions as well as to reflect on how we are feeling.A. Loneliness is therefore a feeling that can be experienced whether or not one is physically alone.B. They would rather feel accepted on a shallow level than risk feeling alone.C. The problem of loneliness can be easily solved in a modern world.D. But, when doing so, the main thing we are trying to avoid is loneliness.E. In the country, people are quiet but few are lonely.F. It can provide you with amazing benefits.G. It guides you through hardships.答案与解析【文章大意】本文是一篇议论文。在当今快节奏的社会中，我们无法在安静中做到平静。但是，独处并不意味着孤独。独处自有它的魅力。1D根据上文可知，在当今快节奏的社会，我们设法参加各种活动以摆脱懒散和无聊。根据下文可知，独处不一定就是不舒服抑或孤独，事实上它和孤独是两回事。D项“但当这样去做时，我们试图避免的主要问题就是孤独”与上下文紧密联系，说的是上述各种摆脱懒散和无聊的活动其实是为了逃脱孤独。故D项正确。2A根据上文可知，在你渴望爱与接受时，即使你周围有很多人，你也会感到空虚。A项“因此孤独是一种感觉，无论一个人生理上是否孤独都能体会到这种感觉”是对上文孤独含义的阐述。故A项正确。3E根据Greoffrey F. Fisher所说的话可知，此处是把城市和乡村里人们对孤独的感受进行对比。E项“在农村，人们很安静，但是没几个人感觉孤独”符合语境。故E项正确。4B根据上文可知，年轻人宁愿和陌生人一起也不愿独自待一个晚上。他们寻找消磨时间的方式，同时也渴望真正的友谊。因此年轻人在一起拉帮结派，但并不喜欢自己的伙伴。根据下文可知，为什么独处让我们这样害怕呢？由此可知，B项“他们宁愿从表面上被人接受也不愿冒感觉孤独的风险”与上下文紧密联系。故B项正确。5F根据上文可知，不要害怕沉默，下文讲到沉默的种种好处。由此可知，F项“它能给你带来令人惊叹的好处”能引起下文，符合语境。故F项正确。.短文改错(2017河北石家庄质量检测)Ive learnt from the notice that youre looking for an English editor for us school paper.
