The term is “networked individualism”. This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet and e-mail, our social networks included live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and friends. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say thats a good thing. Why?In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated us and caused up to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with more real people than expectedhelpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions.Thanks to the computer, we are able to be alone and together with other peopleat the same time!21The underlined phrase “networked individualism” probably means that by using computers people _.Astick to their own ways no matter what other people sayBhave the rights and freedom to do things of their own interestCdo things in their own ways and express opinions different from other peopleDare able to keep to themselves but at the same time reach out to other people22According to the Pew study, what do many people rely on to make major life decisions?ANetworks.BFriends.CPhones.DParents.23It can be inferred from the Pew study that _.Apeople have been separated from each other by using computersBthe Internet makes people waste a lot of time and feel very lonelyCthe Internet has become a tool for a new kind of social communicationDa lot of people regard the person-to-person communication as a good thing24Which would be the best title for this passage?AWere Alone on the Internet.BWere Communicating on the Internet.CWere Alone Together on the Internet.DWere in the Imaginary World of the Internet.CA study published in September suggests there is a surprising way to get people to avoid unhealthy foods: change their memories. Scientist Elizabeth Loftus of the University of California at Irvine asked volunteers to answer some questions on their personalities and food experiences. “One week later,” Loftus says, “we told those people wed fed their answers into our smart computer and it came up with an account of their early childhood experiences.” Some accounts included one key additional detail. “You got sick after eating strawberry ice-cream.” The researchers then changed this detail into a manufactured(人为促成的) memory through leading questionsWho were you with? How did you feel? By the end of the study, up to 41% of those given a false memory believed strawberry ice-cream once made then sick, and many said theyd avoid eating it.When Loftus published her findings, she started getting calls from people begging her to make them remember hating chocolate or French fries. Unfortunately, its not that easy. False memories appear to work only for foods you dont eat on a regular basis. But most important, it is likely that false memories can be implanted(I灌输) only in people who are unaware of the mental control. And lying to a patient is immoral, even if a doctor believes its for the patients benefit.Loftus says theres nothing to stop parents from trying it with their overweight children. “I say, wake up parents have been lying about Father Christmas for years, and nobody seems to mind. If they can prevent diseases caused by fatness and all the other problems that come with that, you might think thats more moral lie. Decide that for yourself.”25Why did Loftus ask the volunteers to answer some questions?ATo improve her computer program.BTo find out their attitudes towards food.CTo find out details she can make use of.DTo predict what food theyll like in the future.26What did Loftus find out from her research?APeople believe what the computer tells them.BPeople can be led to believe in something false.CPeople tend to forget their childhood experiences.DPeople are not always aware of their personalities.27According to the study, people may stop having a certain food if they _.Alearn it is harmful for healthBlie to themselves that they dont want itCare willing to let doctors control their mindsDthink they once had a bad experience of eating it28What is the biggest concern with the method?AWhether it is moral.BWho it is best for.CWhen it is effective.DHow it should be usedDOver the last 70 years, researchers have been studying happy and unhappy people and finally found out ten factors that make a difference. Our feelings of well-being at any moment are determined to a certain degree by genes. However, of all the factors, wealth and age are the top two.Money can buy a degree of happiness. But once you can afford to feed, clothe and house yourself, each extra dollar makes less and less difference.Researchers find that, on average, wealthier people are happier. But the link between money and happiness is complex. In the past half-century, average income has sharply increased in developed countries, yet happiness levels have remained almost the same. Once your basic needs are met, money only seems to increase happiness if you have more than your friends, neighbors and colleagues.“Dollars buy status, and status makes people feel better,” conclude some experts, which helps explain why people who can seek status in other ways-scientists or actors, for example-may happily accept relatively poorly-paid jobs.In a research, Professor Alex Michalos found that the people whose desires-not just for money, but for friends, family, job and health-rose furthest beyond what they already had, tended to be less happy than those who felt a smaller gap(差距). Indeed, the size of the gap predicted happiness about five times better than income alone. “The gap measures just blow away the only measures of income.” says Michalos.Another factor that has to do with happiness is age. Old age may not be so bad “Given all the problems of aging, how could the elderly be more satisfied?” asks Professor Laura Carstensen.In one survey, Carstensen interviewed 184 people between the ages of 18 and 94, and asked them to fill out an emotions questionnaire(问卷调查). She found that old people reported positive emotions just as often as young people. Some scientists suggest older people may expect life to be harder and learn to live with it, or theyre more realistic about their time running out, older people have learned to focus on things that make them happy and let go of those that dont.“People realize not only what they have, but also that what they have cannot last forever,” she says. “A goodbye kiss to a husband or wife at the age of 85, for example, may bring far more complex emotional responses than a similar kiss to a boy or girl friend at the age of 20.”29According to the passage, the feeling of happiness _.Ais determined partly by genesBincreases gradually with ageChas little to do with wealthDis measured by desires30Some actors would like to accept poorly-paid jobs because the jobs _.Amake them feel much betterBprovide chances to make friendsCimprove their social positionDsatisfy their professional interests31Aged people are more likely to feel happy because they are more _.AoptimisticBsuccessfulCpracticalDemotional32Professor Alex Michalos found that people feel less happy if _.Athe gap between reality and desire is bigger Bthey have a stronger desire for friendshipCtheir income is below their expectation Dthe hope for good health is greater1-5 CADBB 6-10 CDABA 11-15 CBDAC 16-20 ACDBD 21-24 DACC 25-28 CBDA 29-32 ACCA高考英语完形阅读周周练（二）AIf you travel in some areas of India, you will be lucky 1 to be served by monkeys. 2 Waistcoats（背心，马甲）, these monkeys are always 3 to give you necessary help.When you are 4 , you only have to point to your stomach and they will 5 you to a restaurant.
