It is not that they oppose technology root and branch; instead, they advocate keeping space for traditional ways of living, with an emphasis on human connection rather than material progress. Certain cultural communities choose to stay away from digital tools. In the absence of smartphones and social media, they maintain tight‑knit community bonds and appreciate the natural world around them. They refuse to run after luxuries that modern society takes for granted. Nevertheless, their resistance is not meant to serve as a universal model for the whole world. What they demonstrate is that human well‑being does not always go hand in hand with technological upgrades. There is no denying that remarkable advances have transformed our reality. Sophisticated medical devices have helped millions get into better physical shape. The Internet opens up previously unimaginable career prospects and makes it possible for separated families to keep in touch across vast distances. Even so, technological solutions are never risk‑free. Data leakages, algorithm bias and safety failures remind us that innovation may generate hidden costs we fail to foresee. Therefore, it is foolish either to reject every new invention or to welcome them without evaluation. We should cease adopting extreme positions. Instead, we are required to assess each new technology objectively, weighing its potential benefits against its invisible risks. Real progress lies not in worshipping everything new, but in making technology serve human needs wisely. 1. What do some thinkers suggest concerning technology? A. Reject all technological innovations completely B. Value human relationships more than material progress C. Push forward digital reform across all communities D. Regard technological upgrades as the source of happiness 2. What can we learn about those traditional communities? A. They expect all societies to copy their lifestyle B. Their well‑being totally depends on high‑tech tools C. They attach little importance to expensive material goods D. They suffer greatly due to lack of modern medical care 3. What does the underlined phrase “go hand in hand with” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean? A. be closely associated with B. be totally independent of C. get rid of D. give way to 4. According to the passage, what is the hidden downside of technology? A. It stops people from keeping in touch with relatives B. It may bring unexpected troubles people cannot predict C. It ruins all possible career chances for ordinary people D. It makes medical treatment far too expensive for patients 5. Which statement would the author most probably agree with? A. The more advanced technology is, the happier humans will become B. We should accept new technology only when it brings no risk at all C. Real progress means making technology serve human demands reasonably D. Traditional communities should give up their old‑fashioned lifestyles 三、完型填空 Hand‑made crafts carry the wisdom of generations, yet many traditional skills are at risk of fading away in a fast‑paced commercial society. Mass‑produced goods, cheap and easily 1. , occupy most market space. Under such 2. , some craftsmen chose to stick to their work, while others gave up and turned to more 3. jobs.
