Are yu an “I persn” r an “E persn”? These tw persnality labels in particular are widely discussed nline. They are part f a ppular persnality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicatr, r MBTI. There are 16 persnalities in all, f which “I” and “E” refer t “intrverted” and “extrverted”, respectively.
Even if smene is typically quiet, many nline discussins suggest that an “I persn” can still act utging at times. Fr example, when an intrverted persn is with a grup f intrverted friends, they might becme mre scial like an “E” persn.
Accrding t psychlgists, this idea f temprarily switching persnalities is called “masking”. That is hiding yur true persnality in specific situatins. “Human beings want t feel they belng, and they might becme peple-pleasers t d s,” wrte the MasterClass website.
Thinking n this, I may actually be the kind f persn that these peple are discussing. Mst times, I just wish t make the atmsphere mre interesting and exciting and shw peple that I’m easy t get alng with. But deep dwn, I mstly enjy being alne and quiet.
Using the MBTI result t identify and describe smene’s persnality seems fun. Hwever, I went t far at ne time. My sister was excitedly making a day-t-day travel plan when I remembered frm an article that a “P persn” desn’t like t make r stick t plans, s I said t her, “Yu dn’t seem like a ‘P persn’”. “Why?” she asked back. “Since when d I need t fllw what my persnality test tells me t d?” It was then that I realized that I’d taken the result t seriusly.
The MBTI persnality test may shw smething yu dn’t knw abut yurself and can even be a fun ice-breaker questin when meeting new friends. And that’s all it is—fr fun. Knwing smene’s 该试卷源自 每日更新,享更低价下载。MBTI result desn’t mean yu really knw this persn.

When pening certain mbile apps, users ften find disruptive (有干扰性的) pen-app advertisements that impact their experience. Open-app advertisements are advertisements that appear in between cntents r during transitin screens, such as when an app is lading the next page. Sme f these advertisements can redirect users t anther app if the phne is shaken, causing a lt f frustratin fr cnsumers.
These pen-app advertisements functin as gateways and becme mre cmmn during nline shpping festivals, redirecting users t shpping platfrms such as Taba and JD. Mst smartphnes have a gyrscpe sensr (陀螺仪传感器) t detect shaking, leading t unintentinal redirectin. Many users nt nly find it annying t find themselves n an advertisements page, but als have truble disabling the gyrscpe feature since smetimes their phnes lack the chice t d s t avid this issue.
In respnse, authrities have intrduced detailed regulatins n shaking advertisements gateways. A regulatin published in December 2022 utlines specific rules fr the design f “shake-t-pen” advertisements. It says that these advertisements can nly be “clicked thrugh” if the phne’s rtatin angle exceeds 35 degrees, with an actin time lnger than three secnds.
Additinally, in February, the Ministry f Industry and Infrmatin Technlgy emphasized that pp-up r pen-app advertisements shuld nt disrupt users’ experiences. A regulatin intrduced in May states that advertisements must include a clear buttn fr users t clse them.
Gvernment enfrcement f these regulatins presents challenges, as the number f apps and develpers is great. Hwever, this shuld nt be an excuse fr internet platfrms t break the rules, as this behavir causes far mre harm than gd. A survey by the Jiangsu Cnsumer Cuncil shwed that ver 90 percent f users strngly dislike pen-app advertisements, feeling that their rights are being threatened.
While these advertisements might lead t mre clicks, the fact is that the advertisements may harm the credibility f the platfrms that the advertisements lead t and weaken the users’ willingness t use the platfrms. Platfrms can achieve a mutually beneficial (互惠互利) slutin nly if they respect users’ chices and prvide suitable advertisements that users are wiling t accept.
28. What des the first paragraph mainly talk abut cncerning pen-app ads?
A. The benefits f pen-app ads fr nline shpping platfrms.
B. The lack f regulatins gverning traditinal advertising methds.
C. The effectiveness f pen-app ads in increasing users’ engagement.
D. The negative impact f disruptive pen-app ads n users’ experience.
29. What was regulated in December 2022 abut “shake-t-pen” ads?
A. They can be clicked thrugh withut any restrictins.
B. They can nly be clicked thrugh n certain cnditins.
C. They shuld have a clear buttn fr users t clse them.
D. They shuld appear fr nly three secnds n the screen.
30. Hw can platfrms reach a win-win slutin as mentined in the last paragraph?
A. By ignring users’ chices.
B. By respecting users’ preferences.
C. By presenting mre irrelevant ads.
D. By flding users with mre prfitable ads.
31. What is the best title f the passage?
A. The Preferences f Shpping Platfrms.
B. The Challenges f Online Shpping Festivals.
C. The Rle f Advertisements in Imprving Users’ Experience.
D. The Battle against Disruptive Advertisements n Mbile Apps.

This includes Australian grund frgs, tree frgs and multiple rchid species which are imperiled, as pigs destry their habitats and hunt them fr fd.
Their gegraphic range is expected t expand in the cming decades, suggesting their threats t fd security and bidiversity will likely wrsen. But here, let’s fcus n their cntributin t glbal emissins.
One such study was cnducted fr three years in hardwd frests f Switzerland. The researchers fund wild pigs caused sil carbn emissins t increase by arund 23% per year. Similarly, a study in the Jigng Muntains Natinal Nature Reserve in China fund sil emissins increased by mre than 70% per year in places disturbed by wild pigs.
32. Why are wild pigs unppular accrding t the text?
A. Fr their threat t humans.B. Fr their damaging effects.

作文一
Last week, ur class set ff a heated discussin abut the “duble-lightening the burden” plicy. Opinins vary amng different persns.
Sme give it a big clap, claiming that their heavy pressure will be decreased, thus ensuring them mre time t pursue their wn interests. Besides, it is gd fr their physical and mental health.
Hwever, thers argue against it. Fr ne thing, sme may fall int the bad habit f playing games. Fr anther, diligence will help them lay a slid fundatin fr their ideal universities.

Flra felt disappinted at her parents’ plan fr the hliday. Turning a deaf ear t what they said, she strmed back int her rm, slammed the dr and flung herself n t the bed. “A hliday is a hliday,” she grumbled. Suddenly, the dr swung pen. Her mm walked up t herbed and said in an amiable vice, “Invlving yurself in family affairs shws yur capability f managing yur life. And yur participatin means a lt t us.” Reluctant as she was, Flra picked up the mp t jin them under her mm’s intense gaze.
Things began t change as she was ding the chres. Nt until she srted ut the grceries did she realize things culd be s neatly arranged and that cleaning the huse culd als clear her mind. Sunshine casting a warm glw n the tidy rm, the munting grievance in the mrning erded; giving way t a sense f achievement and satisfactin. “I’m srry,” she aplgized t her parents, “Nw I knw hlidays are nt necessarily fr fun r rest. Sweat streaming dwn her face, the exhausting but rewarding experience was deeply engraved in her mind, reminding her f the respnsibility t the family.赞成
