I enjy thrwing stuff away. I'd lve t g full minimalism (极简主义), but my wife and tw teenage kids d nt share my dream f a huse with almst nthing in it. I have tried. When the kids were little, I taught them my tw favrite games—"D We Need It? "and "Put It in Its Place"—and made them play every few mnths. Their enthusiasm never matched mine.
If I'm ging t be hnest, my wn tidying skills are nt as great as I'd like. My "discarded" pile is never quite the trash muntain I want because I make up excuses fr why things are useful. I cnsider this unhealthy. I want t be better at mving n.
S, this time I fund help—the classics fr peple like me: The Life-Changing Magic f Tidying Up, by Marie Knd. Knd's cmmitment t her craft is astnishing. Her philsphy is nly t keep things yu lve. Can I g full Knd? I will try. One central idea is t clean by categry. Yu start by cllecting all clthes and gathering them tgether fr cnsideratin. It makes yu rethink hw yu rganize. Next, hld each item and ask if it brings yu jy. This way yu're chsing what t keep. And that's hw I find myself with all my clthes n my bedrm flr. My wife walks by and gives me a lk that says I'm nuts. She's prbably nt wrng.
Smewhere near the bttm f this chas is my special jacket. I mve thrugh the pile: pants, shirts, suits and shes. Then my last categry: jackets. I haven't wrn the thing in abut 30 years. Smehw, it has survived. Nw that I'm striving t fllw Knd-surely, its time has cme?
I hld it in my hand. There is a tear just belw the cllar that widens as I hld it. It's literally falling apart. Will I ever wear it again? Nt a chance. Des it feel gd t wear? Des it bring me jy? Actually, yes. At this mment, my daughter walks in. She asks abut the jacket. I tell her the stry. She thinks I shuld keep it. It's cl and unique and full f memries. She is arguing that nstalgia (怀念) is the very reasn.
I'm nt entirely cnvinced by my daughter's arguments. I believe in lking ahead, nt backward. Nevertheless, smetimes it's hard t let g. S I gently place the jacket n the "keep" pile.
4. What des the underlined wrd "discarded" prbably mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Adjusted.B. Reserved.C. Abandned.D. Tidied.

Re-entering the wrkfrce after a lng absence is ften a difficult path. The lnger yu're ut, the harder it can be t get back in. Fr years, cmpanies like Gldman Sachs have ffered return-t-wrk prgrams as a way t help wrkers g back int the wrkfrce after a lng break. Returnships, as they are ften called, ffer training and netwrking pprtunities t wrkers—usually mthers—wh've been ut f the wrkfrce fr an extended perid f time. Mre recently, there's been grwing interest frm cmpanies in starting this type f prgram.
Gldman Sachs' returnship prgram requires applicants t have been ut f the wrkfrce fr tw years r mre. "We knew the interview prcess wuld need t lk different," said Kelley Berlin, Grubhub's chief human resurces fficer. "We culdn't view them based n their current technlgy skills. We had t lk at their perfrmance level and ptential."
The first week f Gldman Sachs' 12-week prgram fcuses n training, fllwed by an apprenticeship (学徒期) in ne f the bank's divisins. The participants are paired with a manager, a cach and previus returnees. On average, the cmpany gets abut 1,000 applicatins yearly fr its prgram and accepts 25 t 30. Rughly 75% f thse wh g thrugh the prgram get extended ffers elsewhere t becme full-time emplyees. Participants are paid $40 an hur during the returnship and the salaries f the full-time psitins ffered after the prgram are $100,000 r abve.
The audi strytelling cmpany Audible started its returnship prgram during the pandemic (疫情). "We felt that starting during the pandemic wuld be best because we wuld be able t supprt many jbless caregivers and their families caused by the pandemic," said Anne Emi, Audible's Chief Peple Officer. "Knwing that it was very hard fr prfessinals taking caregiving career breaks t re-enter the wrkfrce, we knew it wuld be much mre difficult during the pandemic. But we were s impressed with what ur prgram brught t the table. In a year r tw, we will be grwing the class by three times and bringing in 100 apprentices t jin the business."
8. Why are return-t-wrk prgrams rganized?
A. T ffer wrkers chances t re-enter the wrkfrce.
B. T help cmpanies find mre qualified wrkers.
C. T prvide wrkers with further training pprtunities.
D. T plan ut prper timetables fr stay-at-hme mthers.
9. What can we knw abut Gldman Sachs' prgram?
A. It is easy t be accepted by the prgram.
B. Trainees need t wrk in the bank fr 12 weeks.
C. Few trainees will get emplyed after the prgram.
D. Trainees will be well paid after taking full-time psitins.
10. What may Anne Emi prbably think f Audible's returnship prgram?
A. Interesting.B. Prblematic.C. Successful.D. Risky.
11. What can be the best title fr the text?
A. Cmpanies Seriusly Affected by the Pandemic. B. Returmships Send Mthers back t Wrk.
C. Wrkers Get Better Jbs after Training. D. Mre Jb Opprtunities Appearing.

The term "scial distancing" has been at the center f public cnversatin fr a while.But it's nt "scial" distance we are trying t prmte.It's physical separatin.In fact，preserving scial ties -- even at a distance -- is essential fr bth mental and physical health.The results f an analytic review dne in 2017 indicate that a lack f scial supprt is n a par with（与...不相上下）smking cigarettes as a risk factr fr health.
Given this fact，hw might we best stay cnnected t thers while maintaining physical distance？Wuld we be better ff e-mailing a friend？Making a phne call？Setting up a vide chat？In ur study，Nick Epley and I tested whether the media thrugh which peple interact affects their sense f cnnectin -- and hw expectatins abut certain technlgies impact the cmmunicatin media they chse t use.
In ur experiment，we asked participants t recnnect with smene that they hadn't interacted with recently，either thrugh e-mail r ver the phne.Participants first made predictins abut what it wuld be like t get in tuch if they reached ut in these tw ways.They generally believed that they'd feel mre cnnected when interacting via the phne than ver e-mail.But they als predicted that talking n the phne culd be mre uncmfrtable than sending an e-mail.Althugh these participants believed that talking encuraged strnger bnds，mst f them said they'd rather send an e-mail than call the persn up.Fears abut awkwardness，it seems，push individuals tward text-based methds fr cmmunicating.
In the next part f the experiment，we had participants actually recnnect using ne randmly determined mde f cmmunicatin and then fllwed up with them after they had dne s.We fund that peple d frm meaningfully strnger bnds when interacting ver the phne than ver e-mail.Imprtantly，thugh，there was n difference in the amunt f discmfrt when recnnecting n the phne.
The next time yu think abut hw best t cnnect，cnsider calling r setting up a vide chat.Feelings f scial cnnectin are preferably facilitated by vice rather than a keybard.
12. Hw des the authr supprt his view n the imprtance f maintaining scial ties？
A. By stating a deep-rted traditin. B. By citing a published reprt.
C. By sharing public pinins. D. By presenting fficial dcuments.
13. What did the authr and Epley's study fcus n？
A. Hw technlgies impact means f cmmunicatin.
B. Hw scial media chices affect feelings f cnnectin.
C. Why maintaining scial separatin is bad fr mental health.
D. Why recnnecting with friends ver the phne brings awkwardness.
14. What can we infer frm the study results？
A. They changed the research bjectives. B. They prvided insights fr future studies.
C. They cnfirmed researchers' expectatins.D. They cntradicted participants' predictins partly.
15. What can be cncluded frm the text？
A. Fr strnger bnds，talk instead f typing.
B. Keeping in tuch is key t a lasting friendship.
C. Think befre yu cnsider cntacting an ld friend.
D. Text-based methds fr cmmunicatin cause discmfrt.
