In fact, the pleasure we derive from receiving a “like” is equal to that of eating chocolate or winning money, and we cant help wanting more. According to the findings, which observed 32 teens aged between 13 and 18, the feedback circuit in the teens brains is particularly sensitive, and the “social” and “visual” parts of their brains were active when they received “likes” on the social network. The research also showed that though the thumbs up might come from complete strangers, the good they derive from them worked all the same.So, does it mean we should try our best to win as many thumbs up as possible? Not necessarily so if we know the reasons behind our desire for attention. In “why do people long for attention” by M. Farouk Radwan, he explained several cases in which people naturally longed for attention. Radwan said people who were an only child, who were used to being the center of attention in their house, may try to copy these conditions. Feeling “overlooked and unappreciated” might also lead you to long for attention. Other times, the state of being jealous or wanting to cover your mistakes may also contribute to such longings.In fact, too much desire for attention can create anxiety, and in turn ruin your happiness even when you get it. So what can we do about it? The answer is quite simple. “If people could adopt goals not focused on their own self-esteem but on something larger than their self, such as what they can create or contribute to others, they would be less sensitive to some of the negative effects of pursuing self-esteem,” wrote psychology professor Jennifer Crocker.So perhaps the answer to our addiction to “likes” is simply to focus on something larger than ourselves - a hard, but a worthy one.1、Which of the following can replace the underlined word “derive” in Paragraph 2?Adeliver BgiveCprevent Dget2、Whats the reaction of receiving “likes” on the social network to the brain?AThe brain becomes more nervous.BSome parts of the brain are active.CThe brain becomes less sensitive.DThe brain becomes cleverer.3、Who wants to get more attention according to the passage?Athe only child.BThe old who lives happily with children.CThe young who feels anxious.DTeens who want to discover their mistakes.4、Whats Crockers suggestion about the negative effects of getting self-esteem?ADoing an interesting matter.BWorking harder than ever before.CHaving a bigger goal than their self.DNot checking your Facebook page in a day.23（8分） Young people in the United States do not have a strong understanding of the world and their place in it.Two US-based groups, the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic Society, conducted an online survey last year. They wanted to know what young people in American colleges knew about geography, U. S. foreign policy, recent international events, and economics.The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 26, all of them presently attending, or having previously graduated from. a 2- or 4-year college or university.The average test score, out of 75 total possible answers, was 55 percent. The study identifies a few important problems. For example, only 30 percent knew that the only part of the U. S. government that can declare war is Congress. Only 60% of those taking the survey could identify Brazil on a world map.“Part of the problem,” argue the organizers of the survey, “is the Internet.” They say it is becoming harder to find high-quality information about world events among all the fake news and trivia (琐事) which swamp (淹没) the web. Forty-three percent of those questioned said they read about the news on Facebook.Another problem is that most college courses do not require students to learn about international issues. If such information is not required, Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations said, then the United States could have leaders like Gary Johnson. He was a recent presidential candidate who did not know about the Syrian city of Aleppo when a reporter asked him about it.The survey results were not all bad. The young people also demonstrated a good understanding of climate change and renewable energy. And the majority of them said that international issues were becoming more important to them.Haass says these findings suggest the need to find ways to get good information for students, both in school and online. To help, the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus, designed to help build knowledge about global issues.1、What do we know about the survey?AThe participants were all recent university graduates.BIt was an online survey conducted by two US universities.CIt was given to over 1,200 American people aged from 18 to 26.DIt aimed to find out what the young people know about America.2、Whats one reason the organizers of the survey give for young peoples lack of knowledge?AThe poor quality of the US university system.BYoung peoples unwillingness to travel abroad.CThe sources from which they gel their informationDTheir lack of interest in knowing more about the world.3、What topic did the young Americans understand best according to the survey?AGovernment organizations.BGeographic information.CForeign relations.DEnvironmental matters.4、In which part of a newspaper could we find this article?AEconomics.BEducation.CNational Politics.DEntertainment.24（8分）2017 TFK Poetry ContestCalling all poets!
