Smart phone stress: Are you a victim of "always on" cul?ture?
You're on holiday but secretly check your work e-mails the moment you wake up. You get anxious if there's no Wi-Fi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain. 5 And you secretly worry things will go wrong at work if you're not there. These are the typical signs of "always on" stress caused by smartphone addiction.
Work-life balance
Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh developed an app named Moment to monitor his usage of his phone. The app enables users to see how much time they're spending on the device and set up warnings if self-controlled usage limits are offended. 6 "Some time on your phone, some time off it, enjoying your loving family and friends around you."
"Always stressed"
7 You're not giving your body time to recover, so you're always stressed. And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes we make. 8 The fact that we can stay connected to the workplace wherever we are in the world is feeding deep-rooted insecurities.
Slowdown in decision
We now consume media for more hours than we sleep. 9 It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many are becoming less productive because they're flooded by it all and feel they can never escape the office.
A.Moment's goal is to promote balance in your life.
B.You get excited if you receive a text message or an e-mail
from a friend.
C.This is leading to a sort of slowdown in decision and it is creating more stress in the workplace.
D.The negative impact of "always on" culture is that your mind is never resting.
E.Physical and mental health therefore can suffer.
F. Mobile phone companies argue that mobile connectivity is beneficial.
G. You are nervous if your phone is getting low on power.

Few politicians have been as respected in life or honoured in death as former South African President Nelson Mandela. Since the anti-apartheid (反对种族隔离)hero and South Africa's first black president died at 95 in his Johannesburg home on Dec. 5, people around the world, no matter how different their backgrounds and political beliefs are, have been memorializing him in different languages and in different ways.
Mandela was not perfect, and the country he leaves behind still faces many problems. But despite his short?comings ,he leaves the world a heritage to treasure, said a Beijing News editorial on Saturday.
At one time,South Africawas the crudest corner of the world, having serious apartheid. At that time black and white people's living an equal life in the coun?try was an unachievable dream. Both the introduction of democracy(民主)and the avoidance of what would have in all likelihood been Africa's bloodiest civil war were regarded as missions impossible.
It was Mandela who led South Africans to put an end to apartheid, realize social harmony and build a dream nation. There may still be disagreements from time to time, but people seek to resolve their problems and differences through civilized means.
This is the most valuable heritage of Mandela, who endured 27 years of hardships in prison and walked out with new reflections and thoughts with which to guide all races to own their equal rights and interests. His perseverance and tolerance won him supporters both at home and abroad and moved even his enemies.
The reason why South Africa has realized a stable change and avoided hatred and killing between different races is the establishment of a foundation of mutual trust and recognition of the need for social order, rhe co-existence of different human races under the principle of equality and their resorting to peaceful, democratic and legal means to resolve differences are part of Mandela's memorable contribution.
Since 1999, Mandela lived a quiet and retired life. He resigned at the peak of his political life and avoided repeating the mistakes of many political figures of his time. He performed a politician's mission in an almost perfect way.
1. What can we know about the situation from the un?derlined sentence in the third paragraph?
A.It seemed difficult to realize democracy and avoid the civil war at that time.
B.Democracy could not be realized unless peoplewon the civil war.
C.The bloodiest civil war prevented the introduction of democracy toSouth Africa.
D.The introduction of democracy avoided the civil war inSouth Africa.
2.Which of the following about Mandela's contribution to his country is NOT true?
A.Mandela led his people to put an end to apartheid.
B.Mandela inspired his people to deal with problems and differences in civilized ways.
C.Mandela taught his people to realize the impor?tance of social order.
D.Mandela created a dream nation for his people without any disagreements.
3.According to the last paragraph, the writer's attitude towards Mandela's retirement is .
A. critical B. supportive
C. indifferent D. doubtful
4.What words can best describe Nelson Mandela ac?cording to the passage?
A.Quiet and wise.
B.Hard-working and wealthy.
C.Perseverant and selfless.
D.Brave and aggressive.

In our life, we often regret what we did and which wecouldn't do. Actually, it doesn't benefit us at all. As for most of us, we missed many chance to earn more money, to get a high position and to realize our dreams. We often regret that we don't seize those opportunities, thus feel upset.
