A
Bryce Cunningham never set out to be a farmer. During childhood visits to his grandparents’ farm in East Ayrshire, he always enjoyed the milk straight from the cow. But he had “no interest whatsoever” in taking on the farm one day. So instead of following in his grandfather’s footsteps, he became a technician for Mercedes-Benz, spending 10 years with the company until a family emergency changed the course of his life.
His father and grandfather were diagnosed (诊断) with severe illnesses in 2014, so Cunningham took over the business. The same month his father died, the milk price collapsed from 27 pence for every litre to 9 pence, which resulted in a huge debt (债务). With no way to repay it, his choices were to sell everything he could and stop farming or try something different. Cunningham decided on the second option. Inspired by the approach to farming in his grandfather’s time, as well as the returnable packaging system he’d seen at Mercedes, he shifted from supplying supermarkets to organic milk production and direct sales. Today, his farm, Mossgiel Organic Farm in Mauchline processes about 1.5 million litres of organic milk a year.
The journey from near-bankruptcy (濒临破产) to award-winning sustainable business hasn’t been without its ups and downs. Lockdowns during Covid-19 brought the food and hotel industry — which then accounted for 95% of Mossgiel’s sales — to a standstill. “We went from selling lots of milk to selling no milk, so we had to switch to doorstep sales, which turned out to be a success,” says Cunningham.
Just as he was getting the farm back on its feet, the energy and cost of living crises came along and Cunningham almost went out of business again. He decided to launch a crowdfund. Almost 400 people invested, which has allowed the farm to buy new equipment to bottle and deliver more milk. “It’s all about bringing the community together,” says Cunningham. He hopes to work with more organic farmers across Scotland, and eventually supply milk and other organic products across the UK.
1. What led Cunningham to take over the farm?
A. His career plan. B. His love for milk.
C. His economic crisis. D. His family condition.
2. How did Cunningham deal with the debt?
A. By recycling packaging. B. By selling most of his farmland.
C. By changing his business model. D. By supplying milk to supermarkets.
3. What message may the author want to convey in the text?
A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Actions speak louder than words.
C. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D. A smooth sea never makes a skilled sailor.
【答案】1. D 2. C 3. D
【解析】
【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了坎宁安原本无意务农,因家人患病接手农场。他历经奶价暴跌、疫情、经济危机等困境,不断转变经营模式脱困,还借助众筹发展,计划扩大有机农产品经营规模。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“So instead of following in his grandfather’s footsteps, he became a technician for Mercedes-Benz, spending 10 years with the company until a family emergency changed the course of his life.( 因此,他没有效仿祖父的脚步,而是成为了梅赛德斯-奔驰公司的技术员,在该公司工作了 10 年,直到一次家庭变故改变了他的人生轨迹。)”以及第二段中“His father and grandfather were diagnosed (诊断) with severe illnesses in 2014, so Cunningham took over the business.( 他的父亲和祖父在 2014 年被诊断出患有严重疾病,所以坎宁安接管了生意。)”可知,坎宁安接管这个农场是因为他的家庭状况。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“With no way to repay it, his choices were to sell everything he could and stop farming or try something different. Cunningham decided on the second option. Inspired by the approach to farming in his grandfather’s time, as well as the returnable packaging system he’d seen at Mercedes, he shifted from supplying supermarkets to organic milk production and direct sales.( 由于无法偿还债务,他的选择要么是出售自己所能的一切并停止耕种,要么是尝试其他不同的事情。坎宁安选择了第二种选择。受到祖父时代农业方式的启发,以及他在梅赛德斯公司看到的可回收包装系统的影响,他从向超市供应牛奶转向了有机牛奶的生产及直销。)”可知,坎宁安是通过改变经营模式来处理这笔债务的。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章讲述了坎宁安接管农场后接连遭遇牛奶价格暴跌、新冠疫情封锁、能源危机等多重打击,但他每次都积极调整策略、克服困难,最终把濒临破产的农场打造成获奖的可持续企业。D选项这句谚语意为“平静的大海造就不出熟练的水手”,强调逆境能磨砺人、成就人,与文章主旨完全契合。
B
You may remember those stories from a few years back about how there were more men called John running big companies than there were women. In our company, we had our own version: there were more Sarahs than there were men.
So why do some names become so popular at certain moments in time? According to a historical database of English birth records, more than 8 percent of baby boys were named John in the mid-19th century, similar to the proportion (占比) of baby girls named Mary. It was a less dominant, but still very common baby name by the 1940s and 1950s, which explains all those ageing leaders called John in the 2010s.
But since then, John’s popularity has plummeted. The top three boys’ names in England and Wales are now Muhammad, Noah and Oliver. But not all popular 19th-century names have gone the way of John. Some have staged a comeback — Sarah is a perfect example.
Sarah was a common name in mid-19th-century England, but its fall came sharper and faster than John, and by the first half of the 20th century it was a fairly unusual name to give a baby. Yet, in the 1970s and 1980s, it staged a remarkable comeback, shooting up the rankings to become one of the most popular girls’ names. That explains why there are so many Sarahs in our company, 40 years later. Experts say that for a “second act”, these old names need to have been unpopular for a couple of generations, so that they attract parents of new babies who are looking for tradition but don’t want names they associate with their parents ‘or grandparents’ era. Sarah, therefore, may well experience a 100-year hiatus (停滞) as a result of its own “second wind” success.
Even if names like Sarah stage another comeback one day, they’re unlikely to ever achieve the levels of popularity they once commanded. The data shows that the drive towards individualism has increased in recent decades and the timely publication of baby name data is beginning to shape the trends too. It might enable parents to realise more quickly when a name has become very popular and to choose one further down the list instead.
4. What made so many men called John run big companies a few years ago?
A. Growing ageing populations. B. High proportion of the name.
C. Discrimination against women. D. Johns’ superb managerial skills.
5. What does the underlined word “plummeted” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Peaked. B. Dropped. C. Returned. D. Stabilized.
6. What can we learn about the name Sarah?
A. It regained popularity. B. It reflects individualism.
C. It mirrored generation gap. D. It holds lasting attraction.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Origin of Personal Names. B. How to Choose a Special Name.
C. The Rise and Fall of Popular Names. D. How Culture Shapes Common Names.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这篇文章主要以约翰和莎拉为例,讨论了流行名字的兴衰。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to a historical database of English birth records, more than 8 percent of baby boys were named John in the mid-19th century, similar to the proportion (占比) of baby girls named Mary. It was a less dominant, but still very common baby name by the 1940s and 1950s, which explains all those ageing leaders called John in the 2010s.( 根据一份有关英国出生记录的历史数据库显示,在19世纪中期,超过 8%的男婴被命名为约翰,与叫玛丽的女婴的比例相似。到 20世纪 40年代和50年代,约翰这个名字的受欢迎程度虽不那么突出,但仍然非常普遍。这也就解释了为什么在21 世纪10年代那些年长的领导人中会有那么多叫约翰的男性。)”可知,一些年前有如此多叫约翰的男性经营大型企业是因为这个名字的比例很高。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段前半句用 But 转折,以及下文“The top three boys’ names in England and Wales are now Muhammad, Noah and Oliver.( 如今在英格兰和威尔士,最受欢迎的三个男孩名字是穆罕默德、诺亚和奥利弗。)”由此可知,约翰这个名字的受欢迎程度大幅下降。故可猜测划线单词plummeted为“下降”的意思,和B选项Dropped“下降”意思相近。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Sarah was a common name in mid-19th-century England, but its fall came sharper and faster than John, and by the first half of the 20th century it was a fairly unusual name to give a baby. Yet, in the 1970s and 1980s, it staged a remarkable comeback, shooting up the rankings to become one of the most popular girls’ names.( 莎拉在 19 世纪中期的英格兰是很常见的名字,但它的衰落速度比约翰更快更猛烈,到 20 世纪初,给婴儿取这个名字已经变得相当少见了。然而,在 20 世纪 70 年代和 80 年代,它却实现了惊人的复兴,排名大幅上升,最终成为最受欢迎的女孩名字之一。)”可知,关于“莎拉”这个名字,我们可以了解到它再度流行起来。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。本文围绕热门名字的兴衰变化展开,以约翰和萨拉两个经典英文名为例,讲述了它们不同的热度走势:约翰从曾经的国民名字逐渐失宠,萨拉则经历了衰落又再度走红的过程;同时分析了名字流行、复兴的原因,以及当下人们追求个性、名字数据公开等因素,让经典名字难以再复刻往日超高人气。由此可知,这篇文章的最佳标题是“流行名字的兴衰”。
C
Blinking (眨眼) is something people do automatically, much like breathing, without giving it much thought. While most scientific research on blinking focused on eyesight, a new study from Concordia University looked at how blinking related to cognitive (认知的) processes and found that people tended to blink less when they were working harder to understand speech in noisy settings.
The study included nearly 50 adult participants. Each person sat in a soundproof room and focused on a fixed cross on a screen. They listened to short spoken sentences through headphones while background noise changed. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ranged from very quiet to highly distracting. Participants wore eye-tracking glasses that captured every blink and recorded exactly when each blink occurred. Researchers divided each listening session into three stages: before the sentence played, while it was playing, and immediately afterward.
The results were clear. Blink rates dropped most noticeably during the sentences themselves, compared to the moments before and after. The decrease was strongest when background noise was loudest and speech was hardest to understand. In other words, when speech gets harder to understand, your brain quietly tells your eyes to stop blinking. The less you blink, the harder your mind is working to tune out noise and focus on what matters.
Although individuals differed greatly in how often they blinked overall, the trend was statistically significant.
Earlier research linking eye behavior to mental effort mostly relied on pupil dilation (瞳孔扩张). In many cases, blinks were treated as unwanted interruptions and removed from the data. In contrast, this study focused on blink timing and frequency, supporting blink rate as a simple, low-effort measure of cognitive function.
“Our study suggests that blinking is associated with losing information, both what we see and what we hear,” says co-author Mickael Deroche. “That is probably why we blink less when important information is coming. But to be fully convincing, we need to map out the precise timing and pattern of how information is lost during a blink. And this is the logical next step.”
8. What is the study mainly about?
A. How blinking improves hearing. B. How breathing relates to blinking.
C. How blinking reflects personalities. D. How mental effort affects blinking.
9. Why did the researcher change the background noise?
A. To help participants focus. B. To examine hearing ability.
C. To adjust listening difficulty. D. To test the eye-tracking glasses.
10. What makes the new study different from earlier research?
A. It treats blinking as a useful indicator. B. It proves blinking to be interruptions.
C. It analyzes how blinking helps eyesight. D. It measures how blinking affects pupils.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了康考迪亚大学的一项新研究,该研究发现人们在嘈杂环境中努力理解语音时眨眼频率会降低,揭示了眨眼与认知努力之间的关系,并指出眨眼频率可作为衡量认知功能的简单指标。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第一段中的“While most scientific research on blinking focused on eyesight, a new study from Concordia University looked at how blinking related to cognitive (认知的) processes and found that people tended to blink less when they were working harder to understand speech in noisy settings.(虽然大多数关于眨眼的科学研究都集中在视力方面,但康考迪亚大学的一项新研究关注了眨眼与认知过程的关系,并发现当人们努力在嘈杂的环境中听懂讲话时,他们往往会减少眨眼。)”以及第三段中的“The less you blink, the harder your mind is working to tune out noise and focus on what matters.(你眨眼越少,你的大脑就越努力地排除噪音并专注于重要信息。)”可知,这项研究主要关注精神努力如何影响眨眼。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“They listened to short spoken sentences through headphones while background noise changed. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ranged from very quiet to highly distracting.(他们通过耳机听短句,同时背景噪音不断变化。信噪比从非常安静到高度干扰不等。)”以及第三段中的“The decrease was strongest when background noise was loudest and speech was hardest to understand.(当背景噪音最大、语音最难理解时,眨眼减少最明显。)”可知,研究者改变背景噪音是为了调整听力难度,以观察不同难度下眨眼频率的变化。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。 根据倒数第二段“Earlier research linking eye behavior to mental effort mostly relied on pupil dilation (瞳孔扩张). In many cases, blinks were treated as unwanted interruptions and removed from the data. In contrast, this study focused on blink timing and frequency, supporting blink rate as a simple, low-effort measure of cognitive function.(早期将眼部行为与脑力劳动联系起来的研究主要依靠瞳孔扩张。在许多情况下,眨眼被视为不受欢迎的干扰,并被从数据中剔除。相比之下,本研究关注眨眼的时机和频率,支持将眨眼频率作为衡量认知功能的一种简单、省力的指标。)”可知,新研究与早期研究的不同之处在于它将眨眼视为一种有用的指标,而不是干扰。

When I spied an article about the benefits of switching one’s phone to a black-and-white color mode, I figured I’d give it a shot.
____12____ The moment I switched, I no longer felt an urgent need to look at my iPhone — an urge that I hadn’t known was so strong until it was gone. I experienced a full-bodied sense of relief. I would leave my phone in my room when I walked from my home office to the kitchen. ____13____ When I did check it, I put it down quickly as soon as the task was done. The number of hours I spent per day on the phone dropped by 40 percent, to an average of four hours and 40 minutes per day — still embarrassingly high, but not the dizzying eight-plus hours I was averaging.
____14____ Because the answer and reject buttons on my phone are both gray, I’ll sometimes hang up on a call I want to answer. ____15____ Games weren’t as fun, so I started playing them on my tablet and discovered that I liked the separation between work and play that it enforced: smartphone for boring stuff; tablet for fun.
Two and a half months into this journey, I’m pretty sure I’ll never go back to color on my phone. To be honest, it made me more aware and more appreciative of the color and beauty in real life. Now that I am no longer turning to my phone for fun, I find myself seeking it out in other ways — reading more books, planning more gatherings with friends, hanging out with my kids. ____16____
A. It was hard at first.
B. The result was shocking.
C. And those are things I do want to be addicted to.
D. When I return to color, my eyes are no longer used to it.
E. I would forget to pick it up for hours instead of minutes.
F. Fortunately, these days, nobody minds if you just ring them back.
G. There are some small downsides to my black-and-white online life.

【解析】
【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了数十年来,东方文化深度融入西方日常生活,覆盖饮食、养生、教育等诸多领域。这彰显了社会的全球化,东西方文化交融互鉴、共同发展,有着重要意义。
【32题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:在过去几十年里,西方世界见证了东方文化融入日常生活的进程。时间状语Over the past decades(在过去几十年里)是现在完成时的标志性时间词,表示动作从过去开始持续到现在并产生影响。主语the Western world是单数概念,故助动词用has。
【33题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:如今,在一个购物中心漫步时,人们会发现有提供日本、中国或中东美食的餐厅。此处为固定句型It is + 形容词 + to do sth.,其中it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的不定式短语。
【34题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这些曾经陌生的美食如今已变得越来越受欢迎,这反映了更广泛的文化转变。根据句意可知,此处表示“一个更广泛的文化转变”,是泛指概念。broader以辅音音素开头,故用不定冠词a。
【35题详解】
考查名词复数形式。句意:诸如瑜伽、太极和风水等养生习俗正成为现代健康养生的重要组成部分,帮助人们缓解压力并找到生活的平衡。后文列举了瑜伽、太极、风水等多种养生习俗,且谓语动词是are,故用practice的复数形式Practices,句首首字母大写。
【36题详解】
考查副词。句意:有关道家和印度教精神的书籍也广受阅读。修饰动词read 需要用副词。wide的副词形式 widely表示“广泛地”。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这些源自佛教传统的冥想理念如今也在学校和办公室中得到传授。此处作状语,固定搭配be rooted in意为“根植于;起源于”, mindfulness与 root之间是被动关系,故用过去分词作状语。
【38题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:这些经历有助于增进跨文化理解,并为年轻人做好在相互联系的世界中生活所需的准备。此处为固定搭配prepare sb. for sth.,意为“使某人为某事做好准备”。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意:东方文化在西方日渐普及,这清晰体现出我们的社会已变得何等全球化。前面有形容词increasing修饰,且作句子主语,需要用名词。present的名词形式 presence 表示“存在;出现”。
【40题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意同上。此处是介词of 后的宾语从句,修饰形容词globalized,表示“我们的社会变得多么全球化”,故用连接副词how引导。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:随着东方和西方文化不断交汇,我们有机会体验两种文化的精华,这是一件值得全球共同庆祝的事情。此处为固定搭配be worth doing sth.,意为“值得做某事”,主动形式表达被动含义,所以此处为动名词形式。

【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:尽管我们试图劝阻他,但我们知道这是一个勇敢的人和一位英国绅士的行为。A. assist帮助;B. distract使分心;C. praise赞扬;D. discourage劝阻。前后句为转折关系,尽管试图阻止他,但他的行为仍是勇敢的,划线词dissuade意为“劝阻”,与discourage意思相近。

70. Although highly regarded books do not always make good films, it is safe to say that great films may be made from not particularly good books.
A. heavily advertised B. heatedly discussed C. greatly admired D. frequently borrowed

A
Bryce Cunningham never set out to be a farmer. During childhood visits to his grandparents’ farm in East Ayrshire, he always enjoyed the milk straight from the cow. But he had “no interest whatsoever” in taking on the farm one day. So instead of following in his grandfather’s footsteps, he became a technician for Mercedes-Benz, spending 10 years with the company until a family emergency changed the course of his life.
His father and grandfather were diagnosed (诊断) with severe illnesses in 2014, so Cunningham took over the business. The same month his father died, the milk price collapsed from 27 pence for every litre to 9 pence, which resulted in a huge debt (债务). With no way to repay it, his choices were to sell everything he could and stop farming or try something different. Cunningham decided on the second option. Inspired by the approach to farming in his grandfather’s time, as well as the returnable packaging system he’d seen at Mercedes, he shifted from supplying supermarkets to organic milk production and direct sales. Today, his farm, Mossgiel Organic Farm in Mauchline processes about 1.5 million litres of organic milk a year.
The journey from near-bankruptcy (濒临破产) to award-winning sustainable business hasn’t been without its ups and downs. Lockdowns during Covid-19 brought the food and hotel industry — which then accounted for 95% of Mossgiel’s sales — to a standstill. “We went from selling lots of milk to selling no milk, so we had to switch to doorstep sales, which turned out to be a success,” says Cunningham.
Just as he was getting the farm back on its feet, the energy and cost of living crises came along and Cunningham almost went out of business again. He decided to launch a crowdfund. Almost 400 people invested, which has allowed the farm to buy new equipment to bottle and deliver more milk. “It’s all about bringing the community together,” says Cunningham. He hopes to work with more organic farmers across Scotland, and eventually supply milk and other organic products across the UK.
1. What led Cunningham to take over the farm?
A. His career plan. B. His love for milk.
C. His economic crisis. D. His family condition.
2. How did Cunningham deal with the debt?
A. By recycling packaging. B. By selling most of his farmland.
C. By changing his business model. D. By supplying milk to supermarkets.
3. What message may the author want to convey in the text?
A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Actions speak louder than words.
C. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D. A smooth sea never makes a skilled sailor.
B
You may remember those stories from a few years back about how there were more men called John running big companies than there were women. In our company, we had our own version: there were more Sarahs than there were men.
So why do some names become so popular at certain moments in time? According to a historical database of English birth records, more than 8 percent of baby boys were named John in the mid-19th century, similar to the proportion (占比) of baby girls named Mary. It was a less dominant, but still very common baby name by the 1940s and 1950s, which explains all those ageing leaders called John in the 2010s.
But since then, John’s popularity has plummeted. The top three boys’ names in England and Wales are now Muhammad, Noah and Oliver. But not all popular 19th-century names have gone the way of John. Some have staged a comeback — Sarah is a perfect example.
Sarah was a common name in mid-19th-century England, but its fall came sharper and faster than John, and by the first half of the 20th century it was a fairly unusual name to give a baby. Yet, in the 1970s and 1980s, it staged a remarkable comeback, shooting up the rankings to become one of the most popular girls’ names. That explains why there are so many Sarahs in our company, 40 years later. Experts say that for a “second act”, these old names need to have been unpopular for a couple of generations, so that they attract parents of new babies who are looking for tradition but don’t want names they associate with their parents ‘or grandparents’ era. Sarah, therefore, may well experience a 100-year hiatus (停滞) as a result of its own “second wind” success.
Even if names like Sarah stage another comeback one day, they’re unlikely to ever achieve the levels of popularity they once commanded. The data shows that the drive towards individualism has increased in recent decades and the timely publication of baby name data is beginning to shape the trends too. It might enable parents to realise more quickly when a name has become very popular and to choose one further down the list instead.

Blinking (眨眼) is something people do automatically, much like breathing, without giving it much thought. While most scientific research on blinking focused on eyesight, a new study from Concordia University looked at how blinking related to cognitive (认知的) processes and found that people tended to blink less when they were working harder to understand speech in noisy settings.
The study included nearly 50 adult participants. Each person sat in a soundproof room and focused on a fixed cross on a screen. They listened to short spoken sentences through headphones while background noise changed. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ranged from very quiet to highly distracting. Participants wore eye-tracking glasses that captured every blink and recorded exactly when each blink occurred. Researchers divided each listening session into three stages: before the sentence played, while it was playing, and immediately afterward.
The results were clear. Blink rates dropped most noticeably during the sentences themselves, compared to the moments before and after. The decrease was strongest when background noise was loudest and speech was hardest to understand. In other words, when speech gets harder to understand, your brain quietly tells your eyes to stop blinking. The less you blink, the harder your mind is working to tune out noise and focus on what matters.
Although individuals differed greatly in how often they blinked overall, the trend was statistically significant.
Earlier research linking eye behavior to mental effort mostly relied on pupil dilation (瞳孔扩张). In many cases, blinks were treated as unwanted interruptions and removed from the data. In contrast, this study focused on blink timing and frequency, supporting blink rate as a simple, low-effort measure of cognitive function.
“Our study suggests that blinking is associated with losing information, both what we see and what we hear,” says co-author Mickael Deroche. “That is probably why we blink less when important information is coming. But to be fully convincing, we need to map out the precise timing and pattern of how information is lost during a blink. And this is the logical next step.”
8. What is the study mainly about?
A. How blinking improves hearing. B. How breathing relates to blinking.
C. How blinking reflects personalities. D. How mental effort affects blinking.
9. Why did the researcher change the background noise?
A. To help participants focus. B. To examine hearing ability.
C. To adjust listening difficulty. D. To test the eye-tracking glasses.
10. What makes the new study different from earlier research?
A. It treats blinking as a useful indicator. B. It proves blinking to be interruptions.
C. It analyzes how blinking helps eyesight. D. It measures how blinking affects pupils.

When I spied an article about the benefits of switching one’s phone to a black-and-white color mode, I figured I’d give it a shot.
____12____ The moment I switched, I no longer felt an urgent need to look at my iPhone — an urge that I hadn’t known was so strong until it was gone. I experienced a full-bodied sense of relief. I would leave my phone in my room when I walked from my home office to the kitchen. ____13____ When I did check it, I put it down quickly as soon as the task was done. The number of hours I spent per day on the phone dropped by 40 percent, to an average of four hours and 40 minutes per day — still embarrassingly high, but not the dizzying eight-plus hours I was averaging.
____14____ Because the answer and reject buttons on my phone are both gray, I’ll sometimes hang up on a call I want to answer. ____15____ Games weren’t as fun, so I started playing them on my tablet and discovered that I liked the separation between work and play that it enforced: smartphone for boring stuff; tablet for fun.
Two and a half months into this journey, I’m pretty sure I’ll never go back to color on my phone. To be honest, it made me more aware and more appreciative of the color and beauty in real life. Now that I am no longer turning to my phone for fun, I find myself seeking it out in other ways — reading more books, planning more gatherings with friends, hanging out with my kids. ____16____
A. It was hard at first.
B. The result was shocking.
C. And those are things I do want to be addicted to.
D. When I return to color, my eyes are no longer used to it.
E. I would forget to pick it up for hours instead of minutes.
F. Fortunately, these days, nobody minds if you just ring them back.
G. There are some small downsides to my black-and-white online life.
