我们自蹒跚学步时就被叮嘱“要懂得分享”。父母和老师不断地提醒我们要与他人分享玩具、零食、书籍以及快乐的回忆，有些时候甚至要分享自己的伤心事。我们长大后，会与周围的人或是通过社交媒体与不认识的人分享照片、人生经历和观点。心理学家们将其作为研究的对象，发表了各种各样的论文来说明分享行为有助于建立积极的情感纽带。 2 如今，分享行为呈现出额外的含义。不仅是分享糖果或挫折，它已经扩展到几乎生活的方方面面——全世界似乎都在分享。我们正在利用科技来减少在商品和服务上的花费，或者用我们一直闲置的物品赚钱。从汽车共享到住房共享，甚至是宠物共享。共享经济正在各个领域发展起来，它创造着新的思维方式，随时随地为有需求的人们提供服务。 3 我们需要价格有竞争力的优质产品和服务，大量的共享方式是对这种不断增长的需求的回应，现在这些需求都可以通过按一下按钮来实现。无论是我们能以最低价格租用名牌服装的网店，还是可以把自己的公寓短租几天的平台，都已出现。无论我们是出租者还是租用者，这都是一个双赢的局面；人人都能挣钱，或都能省钱。我们也可以建立联系，有时候甚至可以交到新朋友。不仅如此，共享鼓励我们将物品再次利用，从而减少浪费。共享单车、共享汽车等计划的实施通过减少路上排放污染的车辆的数量进一步保护环境。 4 但共享经济并非没有问题。正如世界各地新的经济活动领域经常出现的情况一样，共享经济的发展速度比现行法规和正在进行的监管更快。一些公司正在利用这种情况获取不公平的优势，来扩大他们的市场份额，通常 以牺牲已有的更为传统的公司为代价。此外，共享经济容易受到信任滥用的影响。有些人出租房屋时财物遭到破坏，还有人搭顺风车时成为盗窃甚至袭击的受害者。最后一点，个人数据，即共享经济的核心，也并不安全。共享平台收集的个人信息几乎涵盖我们生活的方方面面，包括我们的姓名、位置、银行信息及对商品和服务的个人偏好。然而，防止信息泄露或被盗的技术仍然有待改进，服务方和用户对潜在风险的防范意识也较低。 5 尽管如此，共享经济无疑正在与我们的日常生活以及全球经济产生越来越密切的联系。它飞速扩张，我们只能想象它将来会包含什么。我们下一个共享的对象将会是什么？将由谁来共享以及如何共享？最有趣的问题是——这些共享将会带我们进入什么样的社会？ 返回 语基自查　固根基 返回 核心单词——练通 1．_________ intelligence 更强的智力 2．looked at him in ______

I deleted the app and haven’t used it，or any of its competitors，since. Instead of ordering online，now I either cook something or get takeaway nearby.Cooking better food has been a great motivation for me.On lazy nights，I’ve discovered that I can still make a satisfying meal by using whatever ingredients I have on hand.This approach has also saved me much money.As with lots of online shopping，I’d been ordering food without much thought about the cost.Cooking is almost always cheaper and so is old-school takeaway. These changes have cost me one thing—time.One reason the apps are so popular is that they meet the needs of the convenience-seeking，time-starved individuals.But rather than adding to my stress，having to plan meals again somehow made life less so.Some days it’s been a good motivation to stop work earlier，and engage in activities like going to the shops，or start chopping onions.Walking to pick up takeaway forces you to go for a walk.The change in habit forced me to be on my devices a bit less and to be in my actual life and neighbourhood a bit more. The process has made me think about how technological advances do save us time，but time for what? For me，the answer was often just more time working，or more time online.Making my own food feels like taking back time I had given up for things far less nourishing (有营养的). 语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过讲述自己删除外卖APP的原因，来表明便利性不值得付出代价的观点。 细节理解题。根据第二段以及第三段中的“I deleted the app and haven’t used it，or any of its competitors，since.”可知，担心其负面影响可能是作者删除 Uber Eats的原因。故选D项。 1．Which might be the reason for the author to remove Uber Eats?

A．My Order Never Arrived B．Why Uber Eats Gets Less Active C．What Delivery Apps Can Not Offer Me D．The Convenience Was Not Worth The Cost √ B (2024·福建省南安市高二下期中) Millennials(千禧一代) who conduct“forward-looking financial strategies” tend to be happier and more satisfied with their lives.Following a budget，saving money and shopping less have benefits “beyond the bound of personal finance”，according to a new study out of the University of Arizona. For the study，researchers collected data from 968 young adults born between the years 1981 and 1996，starting when they were freshmen in college (ages 18－21).They followed up with the same students when they were seniors， and then two years later (ages 23－26).The study participants answered questions about materialism，their own personal finance strategies such as budgeting and any pro-environmental habits they followed.Students were also surveyed about their mental health，including how satisfied they were with their lives and how they’d rank their personal well-being. “People who save money report better overall wellbeing，including less psychological pain，”Sabrina Helm，study author tells CNBC Make It.“And people who buy less and consume less show less depressive symptoms，so there’s a positive mental health effect.” Not surprisingly，the money-saving strategies improved people’s financial satisfaction too.“It gives you peace of mind.”Dr.Helm says.“If you’re able to put something aside for worse days，and manage to live within your means，it has clear positive effects on mental health.” Certain sustainability efforts also have a similar impact on people’s health and happiness.For example，researchers found that the students who consumed less to help the environment were happier than those who simply bought more “green” products.Although many people have been socialized to see products as solutions，simply reducing the number of things you use or buy might be the better tactic for your mental health，Dr.Helm explains. “It’s normal to get a product to cope with all sorts of things，” Dr.Helm says，“but that contributes to climate change.” Luckily，there are concrete tips to “step back from the consumerist approach”，she adds.For example，she suggests keeping a weekly purchase diary and creating a shopping list. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个新的研究结果表明，采用积极财务策略以调整自己的购买习惯的“千禧一代”不仅能更合理规划自己的财务支出，其带来的好处更是与个人身心健康等有关。 推理判断题。根据第二段可知，研究者从1981年至1996年这15年间一直在追踪同一批受试者，通过询问、调查等具体方式收集数据。故选B。 5．How was the study conducted? A．By making a comparison between finance strategies. B．By keeping track of participants to collect their data. C．By conducting a detailed survey about mental health. D．By asking and answering questions about materialism. √ 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知，存钱的人总体上更幸福，消费很少、节约钱的人在身心方面相对会更健康。由此推知Sabrina Helm会赞成“一个人的财务策略相对来说会影响整体的幸福”这一说法。故选D。 6．Which one of the following statements will Sabrina Helm agree with? A．Consuming less cures people of depressive symptoms. B．Mentally healthier people buy more and consume less. C．Saving money prevents people from psychological disorder.
