Fr years, we’ve been teaching a class n music and the mind. At the start f each semester, we’ve asked the students t cmplete a survey n their favrite sngs and artists. Students’ favrite sngs and artists get lnger and mre varied each year and their playlists barely verlap (重叠).
Indeed, listening t music is a deeply private and persnal experience nwadays and even mre s with the intrductin f the iPd and smartphnes. When teenagers listen t music via streaming, artificial intelligence and scial media platfrms team up t suggest persnalized playlists fr them.
Sme yung peple feel that AI generated playlists make them expsed t smething dull. Their playlists are ppulated with sngs and artists they’ve never heard f befre, yet they all sund similar. In the past, they might nt have nticed such a situatin. Their musical cnsumptin was narrwly dminated by the“Tp-40” artists. Hwever, AI generated playlists have changed this, since a wider range f music is available. If they think their AI influenced playlists are unappealing, they still have the ability t search fr new music. Just because AI can suggest sngs, it desn’t prevent them researching and discvering music n their wn, r sharing playlists. Anything that exists, they can find. The stre is always pen.
Music listening and preferences play an imprtant rle in yung peple’s transitin (过渡) frm childhd t adulthd, tw seemingly ppsing but vital prcesses: frming a unique identity, while at the same time becming part f a cmmunity. Hwever, AI generated playlists have the ptential t challenge this transitin. S des AI make it easier t differentiate the self, but harder t bnd with thers?
Fears f new technlgies are cmmnplace. Fr example the decline f scheduled netwrk TV erased lts f cmmn grund fr discussin, s will 50 millin Americans ever again tune in t watch the series ending fa TV shw, as they did fr Friends in 2004?
If AI is, indeed, cntributing t the transfrmatin f teenagers’ shared listening experiences, then AI playlists are mre than a cnvenient way t discver their next favrites. They are a revlutin wrth paying attentin t.
16. What makes teenagers’ music listening experiences mre private?
A. The ppularizatin f music educatin.B. The lack f interactin amng teenagers.
C. The easy access t musical instruments.D. The extensive use f electrnic devices.
17. What is Paragraph 3 mainly abut cncerning AI generated playlists?
A. Their advantages.B. Their accessibility.
C. Their limitatins.D. Their develpment.
18. What challenge may AI generated playlists present?
A. They result in the decline f netwrk TV.B. They prevent teens chsing similar sngs.
C. They make identifying neself impssible.D. They prvide less fr teens t cmmunicate.
19. Why des the authr mentin Friends in Paragraph 5?
A. T shw the ptential scial influence f AI.
B. T tell us the predictability f new technlgy.
C. T explain peple’s willingness t accept AI.
D. T emphasize its ppularity amng Americans.

Yu see a fantastic ffer, like a htel rm. Yu decide t bk. Then it turns ut there is a service fee. Then a cleaning fee. Then a few ther extra csts. By the time yu pay the final price, it is n lnger the fantastic ffer yu thught.
Welcme t the wrld f drip pricing — the practice f prmting smething at an attractive headline price and then, nce yu’ve cmmitted t the purchase prcess, hitting yu with unavidable add-ns that are “dripped”.
In mst cases, yu see thrugh all additinally added mandatry fees, and even thugh yu culd relinquish the deal, yu chse t bite the bullet and cmplete the deal. Resistance t the idea f starting the search all ver again is nt simply a matter f laziness r indecisin. There’s a prfund psychlgical mechanism at play here, called the present bias.
In the paper, Ding It Nw r Later, ecnmist Matthew Rabin defines peple’s present-biased preference via an example f chsing between ding seven hurs f unpleasant activity n April 1 r eight hurs tw weeks later: If asked n February 1, mst peple will chse the earlier ptin. But cme April 1, given the same chice, mst f us tend t put ff wrk till April 15. In simple terms, the incnvenience f ding smething “right nw” ften feels disprprtinately large. Beynd the challenge f starting ver, there’s anther psychlgical phenmenn that drip pricing uses - lss aversin. Imagine yu’re bking tickets fr a shw. Initially attracted by the headline price, yu’re nw presented with different seating categries. Seeing a VIP ticket is within yur budget, yu decide t frk ut. But then, during the checkut prcess, the drip begins. Yu realize yu culd have chsen lwer-categry seats, but by this stage, yu’ve already imagined yurself enjying the shw frm thse nice seats. Ging back t a cheaper seat will feel like a lss.
Buyers wuld benefit frm a ban n drip pricing. Many cuntries are taking steps t prtect cnsumers frm drip pricing. The effectiveness f such measures, hwever, is uncertain. Nnetheless, yu can hpefully make a mre infrmed decisin by understanding why the strategy wrks.
20. Which f the fllwing is an example f drip pricing?
A. FlightHub intrduces a bnus after yu chse their flight.
B. Airbnb ffers yu a membership accunt when yu bk a trip.
C. Rent-A-Car charges wear and tear fees beynd the advertised price.
D. Ticketmaster prvides ptinal items at later stages f yur purchase.
21. What des the underlined wrd “relinquish” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Reach.B. Abandn.C. Sign.D. Expand.
22. Hw will Rabin explain peple’s refusal t cancel an rder and remake ne?
A. Peple are likely t blindly stick t their initial intentins.
B. Peple like t grab earlier rewards and delay immediate csts.
C. Peple struggle t make a decisin amng multiple chices.
D. Peple tend t tlerate additinal csts within their budget.
23. What is the authr’s main purpse in writing the text?
A. T explain why peple fall int the drip pricing trick.
B. T educate custmers n hw t deal with drip pricing.
C. T call n gvernments t prtect cnsumers’ interests.
D T intrduce tw psychlgical phenmena abut spending.
