You play as the “mother” of a frog who lives alone and enjoys traveling. You need to prepare food and tools for his trips. The frog will send you postcards while he is away.The games popularity may have something to do with how lonely people are these days, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Many players have said that the lonely frog is just like them. But playing with the frog helps them forget their loneliness for a short time.Loneliness seems to be a common problem today. According to the Guardian, about 40 percent of American adults say theyre lonely. And in the UK, about one in five people in the country are “always or often lonely”, The Telegraph reported.This might be why the UK government declared (宣布) the countrys very first “Minister of Loneliness” (孤独大臣) in January. The ministers job is to find ways to help UK citizens feel less lonely. The ministers office will provide more money for activities that connect people together.This loneliness problem may be partly due to social media. When we see pictures of friends having fun or posting selfies (自拍) without us, we may compare their “perfect” lives with our own and feel inferior (较差的) and lonely.But we should remember that no one is destined (注定) to be lonely. As UK poet John Donne once wrote, “No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent (陆地), a part of the main.”Tips to get rid of lonelinessSing your favorite songs.Connect with a friend.Do something creative, such as drawing a picture.Imagine some place youd like to visit, like a fun gathering or a sporting event.（1）What do players do while playing Travel Frog?

No one should live alone.4. （8分）阅读理解 As a well-known Chinese TV hostess, Dong Qing is now hosting two cultural shows, Chinese Poetry Conference and Readers.

One of them is no use of mobile phones, and another is not to take your shoes off-a most serious offence(冒犯)!Of course, when we have paid for a ticket, we feel it is our right to relax and enjoy the film in the way we want to, but we mustnt forget our fellow moviegoers who want to enjoy the cinematic experience, too.The best choice for anyone wanting to break the rules of cinema manners is to get a DVD and watch it at home.
