D
These days there are lot of possibilities to be always connected lo family and friends. Now that I have just moved lo France, this can be very convenient. 1 can ring my sister who lives in Los Angeles on Viber, or I can Skype my parents or friends back in England for a chat. However, sometimes the convenient and dependability of technology can be intrusive.
Even the most out-going people need some “down time" to calm down on their own and get relaxed. This is something that 1 consider necessary and healthy. After all, you have to live with yourself for the rest of your life, so you’d b etter know how to enjoy your own company. It can be a good thing to have time to yourself to collect your thoughts and free your feelings. Today 1 went for a walk by myself around the lake and just day-dreamed. It was so relaxing and enjoyable and helped me let go of my bad emotions.
However, somehow it seems rude or perhaps makes people feel that you're
upset to say to people:” I'm going to go and spend some time by myself. " And often when we are spending time ‘alone’, we are actually connected with a piece of electrical equipment. We try to make something into a Facebook or a Tweet to attract our friends, or we scroll (滚屏〉through Facebook nosing into other people’s lives or seeing what friends are up to. We judge ourselves and other people by the photos they put online, so we can tell how much fun they are having compared to us.This is an age when we can get so much surface information about other people's lives, but being wrapped（包裹） up in what other people are doing or always thinking about other people’s r ecognition (认可) of us can be quite unhealthy. Perhaps these days forget about the simple pleasure of spending time just for us.
Having said all that, I also think that spending too much time by yourself
can separate you from others. I suppose it is important to find a good balance between spending valuable time by yourself and with other people.
( )52.What does the underlined word “intrusive” probably mean?
A. Interruptive
B. Helpful.
C.Unsatisfactory.
D. Important.
( )53. What does the writer think of being alone properly?
A. I t’s the only way to get relaxed.
B.It makes other people feel upset.
C. It’s necessary and healthy for people.
D. It makes out-going people feel lonely.
( )54. The writer agrees ___ ?
A. I t’s important to know what other people think of us
B. its harmful to always compare ourselves with others
C. technology helps us lo judge and improve ourselves
D. technology helps us to know about other people clearly
( )55.Wha t’s the best title for the passage?
A. Is technology really good for us?
B. How can we keep in touch with others?
C. What is the best way to enjoy ourselves?
D. Do we spend enough time truly by ourselves?
