Last year befre Christmas, I had a 7-day paid leave and I decided t g n an vernight stay t a nearby fancy htel Airbnb. I was drawn t the beautiful views and distance frm the hustle and bustle (喧嚣) f the city. After I arrived, I was shcked t knw that my rm had n WiFi r even televisin! We were in a mdern sciety', weren't we? Then what was the matter with them?
“We learned frm recent studies that peple aviding scial media fr ne week might result in cnsiderable imprvements in their well-being, depressin, and anxiety,” the staff explained with patience t me when I questined their service. “And nw, many htels and hmestays arund the wrld have been ffering visitrs exactly this, sir…”
Later, I ran acrss sme brchures abut such trend in my rm. Sheldn Chalet, a famus place f interest in Alaska, has gne tech-free in an attempt t prvide its guests with a truly relaxing vacatin withut technlgy. Owner Marne Sheldn hpes that guests can becme less dependent f technlgy. “Here they can spend their nights lking at shting stars and the aurra(极光), rather than checking thrugh smartphnes, messages and psts r watching the news.” Fr travelers wh prefer peace in the sun and sand, ne tiny island in the Caribbean has n televisins, telephnes r WiFi.

“One day I went t a Swedish friend's and while we were playing in his rm, his mm yelled that dinner was ready. And check this. He tld me t WAIT in his rm while they ate!” an Internet user shared n a media platfrm. Cnsequently, there was a lt f criticism f the Swedes. Many said they wuldn't dream f being s mean in their culture. Wuld a hst in Sweden really nt invite a guest t jin their meal if it's dinnertime?
I des happen, says Richard Tellstrm, a fd histrian at Stckhlm University. He says this s-called “nn-hspitality” was custmary when he was a kid in the ’60s and ’70s. If he was ver a friend's huse and it was time fr dinner, he wuld g back t his wn huse t eat. Or he wuld stay and wait in anther rm while his friend finished his meal. Then they'd cntinue playing.
“Sme Swedes think feeding a guest creates a sense f duty.” explains Tellstrm. “And in a sciety that values equality and independence, peple dn't want t put a burden n smene r feel like they we smene smething.” Hwever, it wasn't a universal rule. Families in the cuntryside, fr example, were mre likely t feed guests. Peple lived farther apart, s it wasn't as easy fr peple t g hme and eat. The “n dinner fr yu” plicy has slwly faded, says Tellstrm. “Since the 1990s, fd has becme a new symbl in sciety. We have pen kitchens. Peple like t dine there and shw ff their cking.”
But nn-sharing hsts haven't entirely disappeared, says Mhini Mehta, a fd schlar. She admits she had a tugh time adjusting t life in Sweden when she mved there in 2020. She was used t cking dine every day fr friends and hsting dinner parties almst weekly in India. She learned that in sme cultures, like her wn, sharing a meal with smene is a way t break the ice—but this isn't always the case fr Swedes.
28. Fr what purpse is Paragraph 1 is written?
A. T intrduce the tpic meal-sharing.
B. T release the netizen's bad feelings.
C. T ffer a platfrm t generate ideas.
D. T cmpare sme freign fd cultures.
29. What des “custmary” underlined in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Particular.B. Optinal.C. Nrmal.D. Unreasnable.
30. Why d sme hsts chse nn-hspitality accrding t Tellstrm?
A. Because fd represents a symbl f scial status.
B. Because they dn't want t shw ff their cking.
C. Because it is wildly acknwledged acrss the cuntry.
D. Because their culture values equality and independence.
31 .Hw is the text develped?
A. By giving examples.B. By analyzing reasns.
C. By prviding statistics.D. By making cmparisns.
D
In a recent study, researchers have suggested that temperature is a majr predictr f bdy size variatin. Meanwhile, scientists studying red deer have said that warmer winters in nrthern Eurpe and Scandinavia may lead t the bdy size f these animals becming smaller. Prf Steve Brusatte, a palentlgist(古生物学家) at the University f Edinburgh, suggested that the way in which ther mammals(哺乳动物) have previusly respnded t perids f climate change culd ffer an insight int humans' future.
Writing in The Rise and Reign f the Mammals, Brusatte ntes that animals in warmer parts f the wrld tday are ften smaller than thse in clder areas, an eclgical principle knwn as Bergmann's rule. “Why d they becme smaller? It is nt entirely understd, but it is prbably, in part, because smaller animals have a higher surface area relative t their vlume than bigger animals and can thus better release extra heat,” he writes. “It is a cmmn way that mammals deal with climate change”.
He added: “That's nt t say every species f mammal wuld get smaller, but it seems t be a cmmn survival trick f mammals when temperatures change pretty quickly. That des raise the questin: if s, might humans get smaller? And I think that certainly makes sense.”
Prf Adrian Lister, f the Natural Histry Museum in Lndn, said it is cmmnly believed that the strng relatins between temperature and mammal bdy size may ften be dwn t the availability f fd and resurces. “We are nt really cntrlled by natural selectin,” he said. “If that was ging t happen, yu'd need t find large peple dying befre they culd reprduce because f climate warming. That is nt happening in tday's wrld. We wear clthes, we have gt heating, and we have gt air cnditining if it is t ht.”
32. What des the recent research find accrding t Paragraph 1?
A. Climate change may cause humans t shrink in size.
B. Human being can't deal with glbal climate change.
C. Temperature is the decisive element in human grwth.
D. Mankind's future is similar t that f ancient mammals
33. What is the main idea f the secnd paragraph?
A. Principles abut Bergmann's rule.
B. Reasns fr animals' smaller size.
C. Ways t deal with climate change.
D. Decline f mammals in number.
34. Hw des Adrian Lister feel abut the recent study?
A. Supprtive.B. Dubtful.C. Lengthy.D. Pintless.
35. Where is the text prbably taken frm?
A. A jb interview.B. A public speech.
C. A science jurnal.D. A curse Bk.

Dear Mr. Jhnsn,
Recently vlunteers have cnducted a survey abut hw the students spend their weekends.
As can be seen frm the pie, amng the surveyed students, abut 51% f their time is spent n hmewrk while nline activities accunt fr nearly 35%. Meanwhile, ding physical exercise takes up abut 7% f their time, sharing the same percentage with reading bks.
The survey certainly leaves me deep in thught. T much hmewrk leaves the students n time fr physical exercise r reading, affecting their health and further develpment. Even wrse, many f the surveyed waste much time nline, sme even addicted t: cmputer games.
S mre attentin shuld be given t this case. Students shuld have mre freedm t smething mre meaningful, rather than just ding bring repetitive exercises. Otherwise, it may have a negative effect n ur future.
Yurs,
