11、 natural places made me feel better when living alone in Rio de Janeiro.

27、Then came Twitter, where people posted about what they had for breakfast, and Instagram, where friends shared photos to keep up with one another. 31. What would be the best title for the text? A. The rise of the corporatized tech giants. B. The evolution of social media platforms. C. The histor
28、y of social networking companies.D. The challenges faced by major platforms. D Today, the kinds of posts where people update friends and family about their lives have become harder to see over the years as the biggest sites have become increasingly “corporatized (企业化的) .” Instead of seeing messa
29、ges and photos from friends and relatives about their holidays or fancy dinners, users of Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Twitter and Snapchat now often view professionalized content from brands, influencers and others that pay for placement. The change has impacted large social networking companies
30、 and how people interact with one another digitally. As big social networks made connecting people with brands a much greater focus than connecting them with other people, some users have started seeking sites targeting communities and apps devoted to specific hobbies and issues. “Platforms as we
31、 knew them are over,” said Zizi Papacharissi, a communications professor at the University of Illinois Chicago. “They have outlived their usefulness.” No one likes interruption. We are born to seek balance and order. No matter what it is that you are doing, being interrupted involves a forceful
32、stop midway and then having to re-enter your previous state, sometimes with great difficulty. Popular belief has it that interruption breaks the flow of your thinking and affects productivity negatively, and so it is advisable that you have an uninterrupted session of intensive work before your
33、next break. However, a Russian psychologist, Bluma Zeigarnik, might tell you otherwise. The connection between interruption and memory came to her attention when she was dining in a restaurant. She noticed how the waitresses had an amazing memory of the detailed orders yet to be paid for, but sc
34、arce memory of the orders that were already completed. The shift helps explain why some social networking companies are now exploring new fields of business. For users, this means that instead of spending all their time on one or a few big social networks, some are turning to smaller, more focuse
35、d sites. These include Nextdoor, a social network for neighbors. Back in her laboratory, she conducted studies in which subjects were required to complete various puzzles. Some of the subjects were interrupted during the tasks. All the subjects were then asked to describe what tasks they had don
36、e. It turns out that adults remembered the interrupted tasks 90% better than the completed tasks, and that children were even more likely to recall the uncompleted tasks. In other words, uncompleted tasks will stay on your mind until you finish them! In comparison to tasks that were already finis
37、hed and ones that we haven’t even started, half-done projects are given the priority in the mental to-do list our brains sketch out for us. Zeigarnik described this finding in her doctoral thesis (论文) in the late 1920s, which was later called Zeigarnik effect. “ It's not about choosing one netw
38、ork to rule them all—that is crazy Silicon Valley logic,” said Ethan Zuckerman, a professor of public policy at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. The future is that you’re a member of dozens of different communities because as human “ beings, that's how we are. The idea that a new social
39、media site might come along to be the one app for everyone appears unrealistic. People’s online identities will become increasingly fragmented (碎片化的) among multiple sites.” One possible explanation is that with interrupted tasks, we are desperate for their closure to reclaim a sense of balance.
40、Finishing them also means that we can finally clear up the mental backlog (积压的工作) and give the space to more upcoming tasks. 2 8. What does the author say about the current major social networking sites? A. Their content is getting more and more lifestyle-focused. B. Their users’ interest in pr
41、ofessional content is decreasing. C. They fail to provide adequate support for college communities D. They now rarely see updates about friends’ and family’s lives. Zeigarnik’s effect can be found everywhere, especially used in media and advertising. Have you ever wondered why cliffhangers work
42、so well or why you just can’t get yourself to stop watching that series on Netflix? 2 3 9. What is Zizi Papacharissi' attitude towards traditional social media platforms? Ernest Hemingway once said about writing a novel, “It is the wait until the next day that is hard to get through.” So next
