In Qingdao, a guesthouse named “Yameng’s Home” is marked by a Barbie doll in a wheelchair at its entrance. Operated by 29-year-old Cui Yameng, it embodies her mission to create a barrier-free environment for people with disabilities.
Cui’s dedication began in high school through volunteer work, leading her to study special education. Her travels with physically-challenged friends during university revealed how everyday obstacles like small steps became significant barriers. This inspired her long-term goal of an accessible hotel. As a practical start, she transformed her apartment’s first floor into this inclusive guesthouse in 2023. Every detail is designed for accessibility: a low entrance ramp, lowered kitchen counters, an adjustable bathroom mirror, and customized bed heights. Cui offers free stays to guests with disabilities, requesting only a personal story in return. Her aim is to provide dignified and comfortable accommodation.
Her first guest was a young woman who had lost both legs. Cui arranged a tandem (双人自行车) bicycle ride along the coast for her — a first-time experience the guest later shared online. The post inspired many followers, including one man who embarked on his first solo trip in twenty years. Cui points out that the core issue is not an absence of accessible facilities, but rather a lack of public awareness about disabilities. Besides the guesthouse, she works at a local welfare center, organizing activities where children wear blindfolds to experience daily life without sight to foster public understanding.
Her initiative has created a ripple effect. After gaining online attention, she began receiving requests from local businesses for accessible design advice. Cui hopes her story empowers others to contribute according to their capacities. To date, her guesthouse has hosted 28 guests and received international bookings. Cui acknowledges China’s progress in accessibility, citing supportive laws and improved services. Yet, her ultimate wish is for a future where such specialized accommodations become unnecessary, as affordable, accessible options are available everywhere. She sincerely looks forward to that day.
4. What inspired Cui to design the guesthouse?
A. Her work at a welfare center.
B. Volunteer service in her youth.
C. Her academic pursuit of special education.
D. Her travel experiences with disabled friends.
5. What can be inferred about Cui’s influence?
A. She has built business partnerships.
B. She has motivated disabled travelers.
C. She has absorbed government funding.
D. She has transformed traditional hotels.
6. Which of the following best describes Cui?
A. Traditional and cautious. B. Humorous and ambitious.
C. Romantic and adventurous. D. Pioneering and compassionate.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Home Without Barriers B. A Chance for New Business
C. A Hero of Online Campaign D. A Center for Special Education
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. D 7. A

【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The post inspired many followers, including one man who embarked on his first solo trip in twenty years. (这个帖子鼓舞了很多关注者,包括一位男子开启了20年来第一次独自旅行。 )”可知,崔雅梦的事迹激励了残障旅行者勇敢出行。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容,尤其是第二段“As a practical start, she transformed her apartment's first floor into this inclusive guesthouse in 2023. (作为实际的开端,她在2023年将公寓一楼改造成了这家包容性民宿。)”以及“Cui offers free stays to guests with disabilities, requesting only a personal story in return. (崔为残障客人提供免费住宿,只要求对方分享个人故事作为回报。)”可知,崔雅梦具有开创性和富有同情心的特质。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,尤其是第一段“Operated by 29-year-old Cui Yameng, it embodies her mission to create a barrier-free environment for people with disabilities. (由29岁的崔雅梦经营,它体现了她为残障人士创造无障碍环境的使命。)”可知,本文核心主题是打造无障碍的“家”。

Global trends indicate that basic resources like food and water are becoming increasingly scarce. With the population projected to reach 10 billion 30 years from today, feeding everyone is a major challenge, as we will not have more water or arable (可耕作的) land in the future. Deforestation is not a sustainable solution due to its severe impacts on climate change.
Israeli company Netafim addresses this by promoting drip irrigation, a technology it pioneered. This method delivers precise amounts of water and nutrients directly to plant roots, dramatically improving efficiency. Transitioning to drip irrigation saves enormous amounts of water. For example, Netafim’s system for rice fields can reduce water usage by up to 70%. It also minimizes the need for harmful chemicals and helps reduce soil degradation caused by farming. Furthermore, smart irrigation lowers the carbon footprint because crops can be grown close to retailers, cutting down on long-distance transportation. Greenhouse farming supported by such technology also contributes to this reduction. Netafim is additionally working to reduce plastic waste through recycling initiatives for used irrigation lines.
A major obstacle remains affordability for the world’s 450 million smallholder farmers. In response, Netafim is developing cheaper systems and innovative business models. These include “irrigation as a service”, where farmers pay a monthly fee, and “community irrigation” projects that pool resources for small farmers, as successfully implemented in India. The company also assists governments, such as Rwanda’s, in developing new agricultural areas.
Although 75% of Israel’s crops use drip irrigation, the global adoption rate is only about 5%, with most agriculture still relying on wasteful flood irrigation. Actually, the growing demand for such solutions is global. The technology was well-received at the Dubai Expo, highlighting the keen interest from water-scarce regions like the Arabian Gulf, which seek to reduce dependence on food imports and enhance its food security through innovation.
8. What does the author highlight about future resource availability?
A. The impact of technology. B. The damage of deforestation.
C. The threat of climate change. D. The shortage of water and farmland.
9. What is an added bonus of drip irrigation besides saving water?
A. It ends soil loss. B. It cuts plastic waste.
C. It reduces chemical use. D. It speeds up crop growth.
10. What does the underlined word “pool” most probably mean in paragraph 3?
A. Donate. B. Combine. C. Save. D. Control.
11. Why does the author mention regions like the Arabian Gulf in the last paragraph?
A. To show global demand for drip irrigation.
B. To compare their agriculture with Israel’s.
C. To prove the effectiveness of drip irrigation.
D. To criticize their dependence on food imports.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了以色列公司Netafim推广滴灌技术以解决未来水资源和耕地短缺的问题,并介绍了该技术的优点、面临的挑战以及全球推广情况。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第一段中“With the population projected to reach 10 billion 30 years from today, feeding everyone is a major challenge, as we will not have more water or arable (可耕作的) land in the future.(据预测,30年后人口将达到100亿,养活所有人将是一个重大挑战,因为未来我们将没有更多的水或可耕地。)”可知,作者强调了未来水和耕地的短缺。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“It also minimizes the need for harmful chemicals and helps reduce soil degradation caused by farming.(它还最大限度地减少了有害化学物质的需求,并有助于减少农业造成的土壤退化。)”可知,除了节约用水之外,滴灌的额外好处是减少化学物质的使用。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“A major obstacle remains affordability for the world’s 450 million smallholder farmers. In response, Netafim is developing cheaper systems and innovative business models. These include “irrigation as a service”, where farmers pay a monthly fee, and “community irrigation” projects that pool resources for small farmers, as successfully implemented in India.(目前最大的阻碍,是全球4.5亿小农户负担不起这套设备。为此,耐特菲姆正在研发更廉价的系统,并创新商业模式。其中包括“灌溉即服务”模式 —— 农户按月付费使用设备;还有“社区集体灌溉”项目,为小农户pool资源,该模式已在印度成功落地。)”可知,小农户负担不起,所以此处指把零散资源整合、集中起来,即为小农户集中资源,故推测pool意为“集中,结合”。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Actually, the growing demand for such solutions is global. The technology was well-received at the Dubai Expo, highlighting the keen interest from water-scarce regions like the Arabian Gulf, which seek to reduce dependence on food imports and enhance its food security through innovation.(实际上,对这种解决方案的需求正在全球范围内增长。这项技术在迪拜世博会上广受欢迎,突显了阿拉伯海湾等缺水地区的浓厚兴趣,这些地区希望通过创新减少对粮食进口的依赖,并加强粮食安全。)”可知,作者提到阿拉伯海湾等地区是为了展示全球对滴灌的需求。

For years, experts have cautioned that excessive screen time wears away cognitive depth and sustained focus. Now, a cultural fightback is underway. Phrases like “digital burnout” and “attention recession (注意力衰退)” have entered mainstream discourse. According to a Deloitte survey, nearly 25% of respondents deleted at least one social media app in the past year — a figure that rises to one-third among Generation Z, who cite mental health strain and the performative pressure of constant connectivity.
This raises a pressing question: if users are increasingly aware of the psychological costs of infinite scrolling, why do brands push harder to capture attention? The uncomfortable truth lies in advertising’s economic function. While advertising did not create the modern economy, it fuels its growth. Each paid impression sustains a system that regulators, parents and policymakers are now questioning. Thus, what began as a debate about technology has unavoidably become a conversation about marketing issues.
Yet the previous data shows this strategy is backfiring. Kantar’s Media Reactions study reveals a sharp decline in people saying social media ads capture their attention. In other words, brands are paying more for less effective engagement. Under such circumstances, some forward-thinking brands are choosing another way. Heineken, a Dutch beer brand, for instance, launched a “Boring Phone” campaign to encourage presence over scrolling. Similarly, Bottega Veneta, an Italian luxury fashion brand, made headlines by deactivating its social media accounts, redirecting focus toward craftsmanship, physical exhibitions, and cultural dialogue. These aren’t anti-digital moves. They’re signals of a shift: from maximising attention to respecting it.
So where does this leave us? Young people say the always-on model is breaking them. Parents and regulators are desperate for solutions. The central question is no longer whether the attention economy carries consequences, but whether the market will lead a voluntary transformation or await imposed (强制的) force.
12. What is mainly discussed in the first paragraph?
A. Public reaction to excessive screen time.
B. The mental harm caused by social media.
C. Professional warnings against screen overuse.
D. The pressure on digital apps to improve service.
13. Why do brands persist in aggressive digital engagement?
A. Regulators demand more online content.
B. Policymakers desire efficient user response.
C. Users’ resistance is considered insignificant.
D. Brands regard users’ attention as profitable.
14. How did some forward-thinking brands address the challenge?
A. By prioritizing care for users’ attention.
B. By refusing to update any digital output.
C. By expanding their social media presence.
D. By launching digital advertising campaigns.
15. What does the author expect for the future of the attention economy?
A. The attention-based industry will soon collapse.
B. The transformation will take place in any case.
C. Brands will further maximize attention capture.
D. Regulatory measures will ultimately force changes.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讨论的是过度屏幕使用时间引发的公众反弹,以及品牌如何在注意力经济中从“最大化注意力”转向“尊重注意力”的转变趋势。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“For years, experts have cautioned that excessive screen time wears away cognitive depth and sustained focus. Now, a cultural fightback is underway. (多年来,专家一直警告过度屏幕时间会削弱认知深度和持续专注力。如今,一场文化反击正在进行。)”以及“According to a Deloitte survey, nearly 25% of respondents deleted at least one social media app in the past year — a figure that rises to one-third among Generation Z, who cite mental health strain and the performative pressure of constant connectivity. (根据德勤一项调查显示,近25%的受访者在过去一年里卸载了至少一款社交媒体应用,在Z世代中这一比例升至三分之一,他们表示原因是心理健康压力和时刻在线的表演型压力。)”可知,第一段主要讨论的是公众对过度屏幕时间的反应。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“While advertising did not create the modern economy, it fuels its growth. Each paid impression sustains a system that regulators, parents and policymakers are now questioning. (令人不安的真相在于广告的经济功能。虽然广告没有创造现代经济,但它推动了经济增长。每一次付费展示都维持着一个如今受到监管者、家长和政策制定者质疑的系统。)”可知,品牌之所以坚持激进的数字互动,是因为它们将用户的注意力视为有利可图的商品。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“These aren’t anti-digital moves. They’re signals of a shift: from maximising attention to respecting it. (这些并非反数字化的举动。它们标志着一种转变:从最大化注意力到尊重注意力。)”可知,一些前瞻性品牌通过优先考虑对用户注意力的关怀来应对挑战。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The central question is no longer whether the attention economy carries consequences, but whether the market will lead a voluntary transformation or await imposed (强制的) force. (核心问题不再是注意力经济是否带来后果,而是市场是否会引领一场自愿的变革,还是等待强制力量的到来。)”可知,作者认为无论市场自愿变革还是等待强制力量,转变终究会发生。

TikTok videos with lines like “Tomorrow, you’re turning Chinese!” have sparked a worldwide craze. A leading voice in this trend is content ____36____ (create) Sherry XiiRui, who started uploading amusing videos about everyday Chinese habits on social media tagged “Becoming Chinese” in late 2025. Just two months later, her series of more than 20 videos ____37____ (average) 1 million views each.
“Becoming Chinese” means embracing Chinese philosophy of life: practical yet ____38____ (poet), smart yet kind. This mindset is adopted widely in daily routines of foreigners as they pick up small Chinese habits to refresh ____39____ (they): doing Ba Duan Jin in the morning, sipping warm water during the day, and wearing slippers at home instead of going barefoot. These practices stem from a long-standing Chinese philosophy: live in tune ____40____ nature, and maintain good health before problems arise.
Digital tools are fueling a growing sense of “being Chinese”, with China’s open-source AI models like DeepSeek ____41____ (use) daily at present by people around the world for real-time translation. Algorithm-based platforms like RedNote ____42____ (shape) how global users access information about China in the past few months, allowing them to engage with Chinese society through lifestyle content.

It is a sign that Chinese culture isn’t just for admiration ____44____ for living and enjoying. Some call the phenomenon “Chinamaxxing” (a term for embracing Chinese culture to the fullest), ____45____ the Chinese spirit meets a global taste for sustainability, balance, and co-creation.
【答案】36. creator
37. averaged
38. poetic 39. themselves
40. with 41. being used
42. have shaped
43. the 44. but
45. where
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍海外流行的“Becoming Chinese”的热潮、成因以及文化意义。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意:这一趋势的领军人物是内容创作者Sherry XiiRui,她于2025年底开始在社交媒体上上传关于日常中国习惯的趣味视频,标签为“Becoming Chinese”。根据空前content和空后Sherry XiiRui可知,此处指“内容创作者”,需用名词形式,create的名词形式为creator“创作者”。
【37题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:仅仅两个月后,她的20多个系列视频平均每个获得100万次观看。根据时间状语Just two months later可知,此处描述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时,average作谓语动词,需用过去式averaged。
【38题详解】
考查形容词。句意:“Becoming Chinese”意味着拥抱中国的生活哲学:实用却富有诗意,聪明却善良。根据空前practical yet可知,yet连接并列成分,practical为形容词,空处也需用形容词形式,poet的形容词形式为poetic“富有诗意的”。
【39题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:这种心态在外国人的日常生活中被广泛采用,他们通过养成小的中国习惯来让自己焕然一新。refresh oneself意为“使自己焕然一新”,主语为they,故用反身代词themselves。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意:这些做法源于一个悠久的中国哲学:与自然和谐相处,防患于未然。in tune with为固定搭配,意为“与……和谐/协调”。
【41题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:数字工具正在推动日益增长的“成为中国人”的感觉,中国的开源AI模型如DeepSeek目前正被世界各地的人们每天用于实时翻译。此处为with的符合结构,即“with+宾语+宾语补足语”,所以空处需要非谓语动词作宾语补足语,use和China’s open-source AI models之间为被动关系,且根据at present可知,此处表示正在进行的动作,所以现在分词的被动形式,即being used。
【42题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:基于算法的平台如RedNote在过去几个月中塑造了全球用户获取中国信息的方式,使他们能够通过生活方式内容与中国社会互动。空处为句子的谓语动词,根据时间状语“in the past few months”可知,此处应用现在完成时,主语platforms为复数,所以空处填have shaped。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:一些专家将“Becoming Chinese”趋势描述为一种点对点的文化交流,有别于过去的熊猫或功夫等标志性符号。此处“Becoming Chinese” trend为特指,前文已多次提到,需用定冠词the。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意:这表明中国文化不仅仅是用来欣赏的,更是用来生活和享受的。not just...but (also)...为固定搭配,意为“不仅……而且……”。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:有人称这种现象为“Chinamaxxing”(一个意为最大程度拥抱中国文化的术语),在这里中国精神与全球对可持续发展、平衡和共创的品味相遇。此处为非限制性定语从句,先行词为Chinamaxxing这一概念,从句中不缺主宾成分,所以关系词在定语从句中作地点状语,需用关系副词where引导该从句。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Every year my swimming team relies on the pool’s Snack Shack (零食店) to raise money for swim meets (运动会) and equipment. But last month, at the end of our first summer meeting, Coach Abby called us all together, announcing: the Snack Shack would be closed for repairs all August, which meant we couldn’t afford any meets that year. Suddenly, a heavy gloom settled over the whole team.
The next morning, practice felt really weird. None of us were swimming our best, and even though Coach Abby was smiling as usual, we could tell she was worried.
When we got out of the pool for a break, Mila suggested, “If we can’t rely on the Snack Shack, shall we hold a pool party to raise money?” At first, Coach Abby wasn’t sure about doing a big fundraiser. But once she saw how much we all wanted to help, she said, “That’s OK. Let’s go for it!” That’s when we started brainstorming ideas for our pool party.
“We could have a Fun in the Sun Lemonade Stand,” I suggested.
Another teammate offered to make starfish cookies.
Some formed the games committee. “Let’s have a fishing game for the little kids,” said one. “When they drop their fishing lines into the pool, we can attach prizes to them!”
We spread out a big poster, writing down ideas one by one — a lemonade stand, starfish-shaped cookie sales, a pool fishing game... We worked late into the afternoon, our hearts filled with hope for the upcoming pool party.
The next day, as soon as I arrived at the pool grounds, Mila and I set up our Fun in the Sun Lemonade Stand. We had stacks of cups and a fancy drink dispenser filled with lemonade. Looking around, other teammates were busy making preparations for their stands. The weather started out perfect — sunny and warm. More people showed up than we’d expected: families with kids, neighbors, and even some former swim team members. Everyone laughed as they played the fishing game and lined up to buy lemonade and cookies.

【答案】But suddenly, dark clouds rolled in, blocking the sun. A light breeze gradually turned into a cold wind, making people feel chilly. Soon, fine rain began to fall. Most visitors hurriedly packed their things and left in a hurry. Looking at the scattered crowd and our unfinished goods, we all felt disappointed and helpless. No one spoke, and the cheerful atmosphere disappeared instantly. Just as we were about to give up, Coach Abby encouraged us to stay positive and wait patiently.
Before long, the dark clouds drifted away and the sun shone again. Warm sunshine bathed the pool once more. To our surprise, many visitors returned one after another. They continued to play games and buy our snacks and drinks. We cheered up and served guests enthusiastically. Eventually, we raised enough money successfully. This unforgettable experience taught us that teamwork and perseverance can always help us get through difficulties.

In Qingdao, a guesthouse named “Yameng’s Home” is marked by a Barbie doll in a wheelchair at its entrance. Operated by 29-year-old Cui Yameng, it embodies her mission to create a barrier-free environment for people with disabilities.
Cui’s dedication began in high school through volunteer work, leading her to study special education. Her travels with physically-challenged friends during university revealed how everyday obstacles like small steps became significant barriers. This inspired her long-term goal of an accessible hotel. As a practical start, she transformed her apartment’s first floor into this inclusive guesthouse in 2023. Every detail is designed for accessibility: a low entrance ramp, lowered kitchen counters, an adjustable bathroom mirror, and customized bed heights. Cui offers free stays to guests with disabilities, requesting only a personal story in return. Her aim is to provide dignified and comfortable accommodation.
Her first guest was a young woman who had lost both legs. Cui arranged a tandem (双人自行车) bicycle ride along the coast for her — a first-time experience the guest later shared online. The post inspired many followers, including one man who embarked on his first solo trip in twenty years. Cui points out that the core issue is not an absence of accessible facilities, but rather a lack of public awareness about disabilities. Besides the guesthouse, she works at a local welfare center, organizing activities where children wear blindfolds to experience daily life without sight to foster public understanding.
Her initiative has created a ripple effect. After gaining online attention, she began receiving requests from local businesses for accessible design advice. Cui hopes her story empowers others to contribute according to their capacities. To date, her guesthouse has hosted 28 guests and received international bookings. Cui acknowledges China’s progress in accessibility, citing supportive laws and improved services. Yet, her ultimate wish is for a future where such specialized accommodations become unnecessary, as affordable, accessible options are available everywhere. She sincerely looks forward to that day.
4. What inspired Cui to design the guesthouse?
A. Her work at a welfare center.
B. Volunteer service in her youth.
C. Her academic pursuit of special education.
D. Her travel experiences with disabled friends.
5. What can be inferred about Cui’s influence?
A. She has built business partnerships.
B. She has motivated disabled travelers.
C. She has absorbed government funding.
D. She has transformed traditional hotels.
6. Which of the following best describes Cui?
A. Traditional and cautious. B. Humorous and ambitious.
C. Romantic and adventurous. D. Pioneering and compassionate.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Home Without Barriers B. A Chance for New Business
C. A Hero of Online Campaign D. A Center for Special Education
C
Global trends indicate that basic resources like food and water are becoming increasingly scarce. With the population projected to reach 10 billion 30 years from today, feeding everyone is a major challenge, as we will not have more water or arable (可耕作的) land in the future. Deforestation is not a sustainable solution due to its severe impacts on climate change.
Israeli company Netafim addresses this by promoting drip irrigation, a technology it pioneered. This method delivers precise amounts of water and nutrients directly to plant roots, dramatically improving efficiency. Transitioning to drip irrigation saves enormous amounts of water. For example, Netafim’s system for rice fields can reduce water usage by up to 70%. It also minimizes the need for harmful chemicals and helps reduce soil degradation caused by farming. Furthermore, smart irrigation lowers the carbon footprint because crops can be grown close to retailers, cutting down on long-distance transportation. Greenhouse farming supported by such technology also contributes to this reduction. Netafim is additionally working to reduce plastic waste through recycling initiatives for used irrigation lines.
A major obstacle remains affordability for the world’s 450 million smallholder farmers. In response, Netafim is developing cheaper systems and innovative business models. These include “irrigation as a service”, where farmers pay a monthly fee, and “community irrigation” projects that pool resources for small farmers, as successfully implemented in India. The company also assists governments, such as Rwanda’s, in developing new agricultural areas.
Although 75% of Israel’s crops use drip irrigation, the global adoption rate is only about 5%, with most agriculture still relying on wasteful flood irrigation. Actually, the growing demand for such solutions is global. The technology was well-received at the Dubai Expo, highlighting the keen interest from water-scarce regions like the Arabian Gulf, which seek to reduce dependence on food imports and enhance its food security through innovation.
8. What does the author highlight about future resource availability?
A. The impact of technology. B. The damage of deforestation.
C. The threat of climate change. D. The shortage of water and farmland.
9. What is an added bonus of drip irrigation besides saving water?
A. It ends soil loss. B. It cuts plastic waste.
C. It reduces chemical use. D. It speeds up crop growth.
10. What does the underlined word “pool” most probably mean in paragraph 3?
A. Donate. B. Combine. C. Save. D. Control.
11. Why does the author mention regions like the Arabian Gulf in the last paragraph?
A. To show global demand for drip irrigation.
B. To compare their agriculture with Israel’s.
C. To prove the effectiveness of drip irrigation.
D. To criticize their dependence on food imports.
D
For years, experts have cautioned that excessive screen time wears away cognitive depth and sustained focus. Now, a cultural fightback is underway. Phrases like “digital burnout” and “attention recession (注意力衰退)” have entered mainstream discourse. According to a Deloitte survey, nearly 25% of respondents deleted at least one social media app in the past year — a figure that rises to one-third among Generation Z, who cite mental health strain and the performative pressure of constant connectivity.
This raises a pressing question: if users are increasingly aware of the psychological costs of infinite scrolling, why do brands push harder to capture attention? The uncomfortable truth lies in advertising’s economic function. While advertising did not create the modern economy, it fuels its growth. Each paid impression sustains a system that regulators, parents and policymakers are now questioning. Thus, what began as a debate about technology has unavoidably become a conversation about marketing issues.
Yet the previous data shows this strategy is backfiring. Kantar’s Media Reactions study reveals a sharp decline in people saying social media ads capture their attention. In other words, brands are paying more for less effective engagement. Under such circumstances, some forward-thinking brands are choosing another way. Heineken, a Dutch beer brand, for instance, launched a “Boring Phone” campaign to encourage presence over scrolling. Similarly, Bottega Veneta, an Italian luxury fashion brand, made headlines by deactivating its social media accounts, redirecting focus toward craftsmanship, physical exhibitions, and cultural dialogue. These aren’t anti-digital moves. They’re signals of a shift: from maximising attention to respecting it.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Every year my swimming team relies on the pool’s Snack Shack (零食店) to raise money for swim meets (运动会) and equipment. But last month, at the end of our first summer meeting, Coach Abby called us all together, announcing: the Snack Shack would be closed for repairs all August, which meant we couldn’t afford any meets that year. Suddenly, a heavy gloom settled over the whole team.
The next morning, practice felt really weird. None of us were swimming our best, and even though Coach Abby was smiling as usual, we could tell she was worried.
When we got out of the pool for a break, Mila suggested, “If we can’t rely on the Snack Shack, shall we hold a pool party to raise money?” At first, Coach Abby wasn’t sure about doing a big fundraiser. But once she saw how much we all wanted to help, she said, “That’s OK. Let’s go for it!” That’s when we started brainstorming ideas for our pool party.
“We could have a Fun in the Sun Lemonade Stand,” I suggested.
Another teammate offered to make starfish cookies.
Some formed the games committee. “Let’s have a fishing game for the little kids,” said one. “When they drop their fishing lines into the pool, we can attach prizes to them!”
We spread out a big poster, writing down ideas one by one — a lemonade stand, starfish-shaped cookie sales, a pool fishing game... We worked late into the afternoon, our hearts filled with hope for the upcoming pool party.
The next day, as soon as I arrived at the pool grounds, Mila and I set up our Fun in the Sun Lemonade Stand. We had stacks of cups and a fancy drink dispenser filled with lemonade. Looking around, other teammates were busy making preparations for their stands. The weather started out perfect — sunny and warm. More people showed up than we’d expected: families with kids, neighbors, and even some former swim team members. Everyone laughed as they played the fishing game and lined up to buy lemonade and cookies.
