• 2．By now，we are all aware that social media has had a tremendous influence on our culture，in business，on the world-at-large．Social media websites revolutionized the way people communicate and socialize on the Web．However，aside from seeing your friends' new baby on Facebook，or reading about Justin Bieber's latest conflict with the law on Twitter，what are some of the real influences？
     Social networks offer the opportunity for people to re-connect with their old friends and acquaintances，make new friends，share ideas and pictures，and many other activities．Users can keep pace with the latest global and local developments，and participate in campaigns and activities of their choice．Professionals use social media sites like LinkedIn to enhance their career and business development．Students can work together with their peers to improve their academic and communication skills．
     Unfortunately，there are a few downsides too to social networking．If you are not careful，immoral people can target you for cyber bullying and disturbance on social sites．School children，young girls，and women can fall victim to online attacks which can create tension and suffering．If you are a victim of cyber bullying，do not take it lying down，but try to take appropriate legal action against the attacker．
     Many companies have blocked social networks as addicted employees can distract themselves on such sites，instead of focusing on work．In fact，studies show that British companies have lost billions of dollars per year in productivity because of social media addiction among employees．
     Also，what you carelessly post on the Net can come back to trouble you．Revealing（泄露） personal information on social sites can make users vulnerable（易受伤害的）to crimes like identity theft，stalking，etc．Many companies perform a background check on the Web before hiring an employee．If a potential employee has posted something embarrassing on social media，it can greatly affect their chances of getting the job．The same holds true for our relationships too，as our loved ones and friends may get to know if we post something undesirable on social networks．
     Social media has its advantages and drawbacks as each coin has two sides．It is up to each user to use social sites wisely to enhance their professional and social life，and exercise caution to ensure they do not fall victim to online dangers．
  
  （1）Paragraph 2 mainly shows that social networks

  ．
  A．help students finish their homework
  B．offer professionals good chances
  C．benefit users in various ways
  D．guide users to make right choices users to make right choices

  A．forbid the use of social networks during work time

• 3．    It can be incredibly difficult to encourage ourselves to go for a run during winter，particularly when it's wet and windy outside.But new research has found that even a super-quick run could have great health benefits.In fact ，it seems that just a 10-minute session will not only make us feel better，but could actually improve brain health，too.Now，we all know that exercise can improve mental and physical health in many ways.
     But when it comes to mental well-being，there's been relatively little research done on the specific benefits of running，compared with other physical activities，such as cycling.So this was something put to the test during a recent study.Researchers from University of Tsukuba in Japan asked participants （参加者） to run on a treadmill （跑步机） for just 10 minutes.They then had to take a Stroop Color and Word Test which is used to measure reaction time in brain processing.Results showed there was a highest point in self-reported pleasure and an increase in degree of activity of the brain.
     In other words，runners were found to have an increase in blood flow in the part of the brain that's associated with dealing with functions and controlling mood （情绪）.Researchers then compared these results to a similar study on cycling，which also showed improved cognition （认知），but no mood improvement.Therefore，it seems various types of exercise can make us feel differently.
     The authors noted， "Given exercise is medicine，the effects of drugs differ depending on the type of drug，and different types of exercise such as running and cycling should be observed to have different effects on mental health and brain functions as well."
     So pushing ourselves to get outside for a run really will make us feel better，probably more than other fitness activities.And these findings show that we don't necessarily need to do a lot of exercise to feel the benefit of it
  
  （1）What suggestion does the result of the new research offer？

  
  A．Running in windy weather makes you stronger.
  B．A short distance running can benefit a lot.
  C．A 10-minute running is the best exercise.
  D．Running can make people live longer.
  （2）How did the researchers carry out their research？

  
  A．By asking participants to do a test after running.
  B．By asking participants to run outside.
  C．By connecting the participants brain to a machine.
  D．By recording the activities of the brain.
  （3）Why does running give people more pleasure？

  
  A．Because running can build up people's strength.
  B．Because running control people's mood.
  C．Because running can let the brain work effectively.
  D．Because running can produce more blood.
  （4）What does the author probably agree with？

  
  A．Doing exercises can cure people's illnesses.
  B．Running has a similar function to cycling.
  C．Different exercises affect health differently.
  D．Running is better than any other exercises.
