Id been dreaming of an Olympic gold medal since I was eight but gradually, that dream seemed like a million miles away. On January 2, 2022, while Mom was visiting me in Iowa, I told her, “I dont like gymnastics anymore. I want to try dancing, or become a singer. I can get a job in Virginia. I just want to come home.” Moms eyes narrowed and her expression turned to stone. “Youre breaking my heart, Brie,” she said. “Youve been doing gymnastics for ten years, and now you want to quit? Have you lost your mind?”I hadnt lost my mind, but I had lost my fire. Its an entirely different thing to push toward that dream when you feel alone.“Im not trying to break your heart, Mom,” I said. “I just dont want to do it anymore.”“I know you miss home. But youve signed a contract that says you will represent your country to the best of your ability. Youve got a responsibility to your teammates. And now you just want to walk away? I will not let you be dishonorable. If you dont like gymnastics, then at the very least, you will finish the season.”The next afternoon as I dragged myself into Chows gym, I thought of the efforts Mom had made in order to pay for my training. I thought of my two sisters: Arielle, who gave up ballroom dancing, and Joyelle, who stopped ice skating so that our single mom could afford to keep me in gymnastics.For now, heres what you need to know: Exactly 210 days before I ever attempted my first vault (跳动) in the London Summer Olympics, my leap of faith came this close to ending in a crash of disaster.26.

Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers that want to send targeted messages.Most Facebook users dont realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what theyre paying for Facebook because people dont really know what their personal data is worth.The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. Early on, you keep everything private. That was the great thing about facebookyou could create your own little private network. Last year, the company changed its privacy rules so that many things your city, your photo, your friends nameswere set, by default (默认) to be shared with everyone on the Internet.According to Facebooks vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people dont share information, they have a “less satisfying experience”.Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. Its original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them at the side of the page, totally failed.Who wants to look at ads when theyre online connecting with their friends?The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April, Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social-networking sites. “I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,” Schrage admits. I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy is only the beginning, which is why Im considering deactivating(撤销) my account. Facebook is a handy site, but Im upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I dont know. Thats too high a price to pay. 31. What do we learn about Facebook from the first paragraph? A. It is a website that sends messages to targeted users. B. It makes money by putting on advertisements. C. It profits by selling its users personal data. D. It provides loads of information to its users. 32. What does the author say about most Facebook users? A. They are reluctant to give up their personal information. B. They dont know their personal data enriches Facebook. C. They dont identify themselves when using the website. D. They care very little about their personal information. 33. Why does Facebook make changes to its rules according to Elliot Schrage? A. To provide better service to its users. B. To follow the Federal guidelines. C. To improve its users connectivity. D. To expand its scope of business. 34. What does Senator Charles Schumer advocate? A. Setting guidelines for advertising on websites. B. Banning the sharing of users personal information. C. Formulating regulations for social-networking sites. D. Removing ads from all social-networking sites. 35. Why does the author plan to cancel his Facebook account? A. He is dissatisfied with its current service. B. He finds many of its users untrustworthy. C. He doesnt want his personal data abused. D. He is upset by its frequent rule changes.【参考答案】31-35 CB ACC B篇（社交网站）语篇解读: 文章的主题围绕当下很受欢迎的社交网站Facebook，揭露其将用户资料出售给广告商。而大多数用户并未意识到这一点，由于他们并没有意识到个人资料的重要性。作者的态度和立场格外鲜亮，并表示考虑注销自己的账户。31. 细节理解题。依据Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers that want to send targeted messages.通过卖用户的信息来挣钱，故选C。32. 细节理解题。依据Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers that want to send targeted messages.

Similarly, “window treatments” frame the window. but the use of European-style net curtains to screen out nosy neighbors is rare. In the same style, first-time visitors to an American home may be proudly given the full tour; even walk-in closets and en suite bathrooms are not considered off-limits. They may also be encouraged to help themselves to a soda from the fridge. All this gives an impression of openness. Yet Americans do value their personal space and privacy. A Brazilian expatriate (侨民) who dropped in on her usually friendly Connecticut neighbors unannounced got the clear impression she should have called first. Similarly while a typical suburban home features large, shared areas, such as an open-plan kitchen and family room or “den”, ample private space is also allowed in the floor plan. A visit to a family home in the evening would likely find the family members dispersed, each independently watching TV, on the phone, surfing the Internet, or otherwise recharging batteries in the privacy of their own bedroom. American individualism, expansiveness, and abundance are expressed in lifestyle. Despite the fact that the average household size has declined over the past thirty years from3.1 people to 2.6 people per household, the average size of a new family home increased during the same period from 1,500 to 2,200 square feet. A common observation is just how outsized everything is. The beds are king-sized, the TVs have giant screens, the burgers are “whoppers (庞然大物),” appliances are “industrial” size. The largest popcorn or soda at the movies can be “supersized.” Closets are “walk in,” and some cars are the size of a military vehicle.67. The passage suggests that Americans_.A. are rich enough to afford large size houses and luxurious electricity appliancesB. are very shy when talking about keeping their privacy and their personal spaceC. would like to express their lifestyles in public to show them offD. enjoy openness as well as individualism although they seem to contradict each other68.Why can we say that American individualism, expansiveness, and abundance are expressed in their lifestyle?A. Because the average size of a new house has increased during the past thirty years.B. Because Americans often use European-style net curtains to screen out nosy neighbors.C. Because many houses are equipped with walk-in closets.D. Because the house size, outsized household furniture and independent living habits have proved it.69. The underlined phrase in the passage means_.A. filling a battery with electrical power B. recovering your strength and energy by resting for a whileC. changing your batteries againD. obtaining new batteries because old ones are running out70. According to the passage, if you drop in on an American family which is usually friendly to you in the evening, you_.A. will be deeply impressed by their family get-together sceneB. will be invited to a party which is well-preparedC. will find family members scattered, and enjoying themselves individuallyD. will be warmly welcomed even if they dont get informed of your visit earlier【参考答案】67-70DDBC
