双语阅读 | 大学生能忍住一个多小时不碰手机吗？

大学生能忍住一个多小时不碰手机吗？Can College Students Stand to Ditch Their Phones for an Hour or So? 文本难度：考研Nearly every student clutches a phone in one hand as they traverse the University of Central Florida campus, even while walking in groups. Laptops and tablets are lunchtime companions, and earbuds and headphones are routine accessories. While waiting for class to start, many students sit in silence, drawn into their devices. 在中佛罗里达大学的校园里，几乎每个学生手里都紧紧攥着一部手机，哪怕是一群人结伴而行也是如此。笔记本电脑和平板成了午餐时间的标配，耳机和耳塞更是日常必备。在课前等待的间隙，许多学生也是安静坐着，全身心沉浸在自己的电子设备中。It is a familiar and exasperating scene for Seán Killingsworth, 22, a former U. C. F. Student. “What is this life I’m signing up for?” he asked himself during his sophomore year. “It was just like, I’m talking to a bunch of zombies.” 对于22岁、曾在中佛罗里达大学上过学的肖恩·基林斯沃思（Seán Killingsworth）来说，这是一幕既熟悉又令人无奈的场景。“我来读大学就是为了过这种生活吗？”他在大二时曾这样问自己，“感觉我就像在跟一群行尸走肉说话。”Mr. Killingsworth craved a space where he could chat with his peers without feeling as though he was intruding. When he was in high school, he ran into similar conundrums, so he would organize phone-free hangouts with friends. Why not in college too? 基林斯沃思渴望能有这样一个空间，能让他可以和同龄人畅聊，而不会觉得自己在打扰别人。上高中时，他也遇到过类似的难题，所以他会组织朋友们一起进行“无手机聚会”。既然如此，为什么上了大学就不能这么做呢？In 2023, he helped bring the idea of no-phone social time to two different Florida campuses – U. C. F. And Rollins College. He called it the Reconnect Movement: During meetings, everyone was required to hand over their phone and socialize without devices, a concept that has become a big draw for like-minded students. 2023年，他将“无手机社交时间”的理念带到了佛罗里达州的两所高校——中佛罗里达大学和罗林斯学院。他称之为“重连运动（Reconnect Movement）”：在聚会期间，每个人都必须上交手机，在没有电子设备干扰的情况下进行交流。这一理念对许多志同道合的学生产生了巨大吸引力。Reconnect’s popularity dovetails with a cultural shift in how smartphones and social media are perceived by adults and adolescents alike. Experts have sounded the alarm about the potential mental health dangers of digital media, even though it’s hard to prove a causal connection between this technology and the rising rates of loneliness, anxiety and depression in young people. “重连运动”的流行，恰与成年人和青少年对智能手机及社交媒体的看法发生文化性转变的现象相呼应。尽管目前很难证明数字媒体与年轻人中日益加剧的孤独、焦虑和抑郁发生率之间存在直接的因果关系，专家们还是就其可能带来的心理健康隐患敲响了警钟。Campaigns to reduce or delay smartphone use like “Wait Until 8th” and books like Jonathan Haidt’s best-selling “The Anxious Generation” have struck a deep chord, particularly with parents. 诸如“等到八年级再用手机（Wait Until 8th）”这类旨在减少或推迟使用智能手机的倡议，以及乔纳森·海特（Jonathan Haidt）的畅销书《焦虑的一代》（The Anxious Generation）等书籍，都深深触动了公众，尤其是家长群体。Student-led movements have often encouraged phone abstinence, but Mr. Killingsworth’s Reconnect Movement doesn’t push students to change their relationship with technology. Instead, it aims to create what he called “human connection habitats” that eliminate the need for willpower. 以往由学生发起的运动往往鼓励大家戒掉手机，但基林斯沃思的“重连运动”并没有强迫学生去改变自身与科技的关系。相反，它的目标是打造他所说的“人类联结栖息地”，让人们不再需要依靠意志力来抵抗手机的诱惑。The idea isn’t particularly novel, Mr. Killingsworth said, but novel isn’t what his generation needs. “Gen Z needs a normal that we’ve never experienced,” he said. 基林斯沃思表示，这个想法其实并不新奇，但他这一代人需要的本就不是新奇，“Z世代需要的是一种我们从未体验过的‘正常生活’。”On a recent sticky afternoon nearly 40 students gathered at the U. C. F. Campus arboretum for the first Reconnect meeting of the fall semester. After surrendering their devices to a “phone valet,” they sat cross-legged on patchwork blankets and prepared to spend one hour without screens. 最近，在一个闷热潮湿的下午，近40名学生聚集在中佛罗里达大学校园的树木园，举行秋季学期的第一次“重连”聚会。在将设备交给“手机代管员”后，他们盘腿坐在拼布毯子上，准备共同度过一个小时没有电子屏幕的时光。As a CD player belted out reggae music from the band Stick Figure, many of the students began to make eye contact and small talk. You would be forgiven for thinking you had been transported back 20 years. 当CD机播放起 Stick Figure 乐队的雷鬼音乐，许多学生开始看向彼此并闲聊起来。这一幕，难免让人恍惚，以为自己穿越回了二十年前。【词汇】1. traverse v. 横穿；走过2. exasperating adj.使人沮丧的3. sophomore n. （高中或大学的）二年级学生4. zombie n. 僵尸；行尸走肉般的人5. conundrum n. 难题6. dovetail v. 完美契合7. causal adj.有因果关系的8. abstinence n.戒除9.

To describe features of various care robots.B. To argue for replacing humans with robots.C. To explore possibilities and concerns of robot care.D. To prove that robot care is better than human care.Part II. TRANSCRIPTWould You Want to Be Cared for by a Robot?It’s Saturday night in the year 2100, and you’re at the quiz night in a care home. The Saturday night quiz is serious business. While the residents battle it out, a team of carers quietly ensures the smooth running of the home. Luna announces the questions. Zach serves dinner and drinks, and Qi-Young administers evening medications. But Luna, Zach, and Qi-Young aren’t human. They’re robots. And one day, they could be your retirement companions.battle it out 拼搏一场One in three people born today will live until they’re 100. (Q1) The world’s population of over-60s has doubled since 1980 to around a billion, and it’s projected to double again by 2050. That’s a lot of people who may one day need additional support to live fulfilling and comfortable lives. Assistive intelligent robots could relieve pressure in understaffed care homes. So what would being looked after by robots actually feel like?Imagine – you’re woken up by your favorite song played by a music robot. Luna, a humanoid, is ready with your perfect brew, milk and sugar selected with precision. (Q2) Luna helps you choose your outfit for your morning walk and assists you into your exoskeleton, an aid that gives you full control of your mobility. humanoid n. 人形机器人exoskeleton n. 外骨骼（装置）You take a stroll around the gardens with your human carer, Dan. You choose your own route, and your exoskeleton responds to your subtle movements and commands, which it picks up via smart wearables, so you’re fully in control. Along the way, you see robots maintaining the beautifully manicured grounds, alerting carers to any potential hazards. You stop to chat to a friend, and if your conversation is cut short, a robot attendant will remember what you were talking about and set up another time for you to chat. manicured adj. 修剪整齐的When you return to your room, it’s been cleaned by a team of housekeeping robots. Unburdened by time-consuming routine tasks, your human carer, Dan, can take his time chatting to residents, giving everyone his full attention. You then enjoy a sumptuous communal breakfast with the other residents and staff. Bruno, the kitchen robot, serves up a feast customized to your personal dietary requirements, allergies, and he doesn’t forget that you hate mushrooms. (Q3) Clara, a humanoid robot with soft silicone skin and a calming voice, assists you with medication. Her senses can immediately detect changes in your mood, walking pattern, or skin temperature. Prakash, a robot designed for emotional well-being, tells you a joke. His AI adapts to each resident’s personality and allows him to keep up to date with their interests, likes, and dislikes. sumptuous adj. 豪华的；丰盛的communal adj. 公共的；共用的customize v. 定制While this scenario may sound idyllic, it’s not without serious considerations. Take, for example, logistics. This vision would mean extensive building redesigns to accommodate robot carers. Care homes of the future would need to take into consideration how robots navigate rough terrain, shared spaces, and moving around one another, all while ensuring that they don’t themselves become mobility hazards for residents. (Q4) And on an ethical and legal level, there’s a ton of complexities with no easy answers. idyllic adj. 田园诗般的；宁静美好的ethical adj. 伦理的；道德的Imagine a scenario where a robot makes a mistake, perhaps administering the wrong medication or failing to alert staff during an emergency. Who or what would be held responsible? And what are the privacy implications of sharing all your personal health data with a robot? And what will all of this mean in terms of maintaining the skills and jobs of human care workers? And then there’s, of course, the question at the heart of what it means to give and receive care. Empathy, emotional support, and human contact are essential for all of us, particularly when we’re at our most vulnerable.implication n. 可能的影响（或后果）While robots may be able to help out with physical caring, health monitoring, and even limited companionship, could they ever be a true substitute for the humans currently doing those jobs? This leads us to perhaps our most important question. Would we have the right to refuse robot care? And how might we be empowered to do so? These aren’t just questions for engineers or policymakers. They’re for all of us. What do we want our care to look like in the future?empower v. 赋予权力；使自主Today’s research looks at how robots can make their own decisions using data from their sensors, other robots, and tech worn by residents and carers. By 2100, robots will be far more capable than they are today. (Q5) If they can allow for more time and attention from human carers and empower our older selves to live safe, dignified, and fulfilled lives, perhaps it’s not a question of if they should be used, but how.dignified adj. 有尊严的Part III.

社交媒体为何让人欲罢不能？What Science Can Teach Us About the Pull of Social Media常速 | 六级偏难 | 505词 | 3min18s刘立军供稿Part I. QUESTIONSListen to the passage and choose the best answer to each question you hear.Q1. What does the author say about the DSM-5 and social media addiction?A. It has classified SMA as a distinct mental disorder.B. It does not recognize SMA as a distinct mental disorder.C. It suggests that SMA should be treated with medication.D. It proves that SMA is a form of behavioral addiction.Q2. According to the passage, which personality trait may be a risk factor for compulsive social media behavior? A. Extroversion.B. Agreeableness.C. Neuroticism.D. Conscientiousness.Q3. What can be inferred from the passage about the future of social media addiction research?A. It may lead to legal regulations similar to those for gambling.B. It has already provided clear answers to all related questions.C. It proves that personality is the only cause of social media addiction.D. It shows that social media addiction is less serious than drug addiction.Q4. What question does the author raise regarding children and social media?A. Whether children should be banned from using social media.B. Whether social media should be legislated like tobacco and alcohol.C. Whether children should be guided on what to view on social media.D. Whether social media platforms should be redesigned for children.Q5. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To argue that social media should be banned for users.B. To describe a court case about social media addiction.C. To prove that social media addiction is a mental disorder.D. To explore the pull of social media and related concerns.Part II. TRANSCRIPTWhat Science Can Teach Us About the Pull of Social MediaYou have probably heard of the social-media addiction trial that recently took place in Los Angeles. A young woman took Meta and YouTube to court, accusing them of making her addicted to social media — and she won.This was an interesting court case, and one that raises many questions — questions that there are currently no clear answers to, but that people ought to think about, especially as they are likely to pop up in many upcoming debates.Social media is extensively used.As many as one in every three people use social media, and in the USA, people are reportedly spending around 6 hours a day on it. In 2025, Facebook was the most popular social media platform with over 3 billion users, closely followed by WhatsApp and Instagram, which both had about 3 billion users. Approximately 60% of the global population use some kind of social media, if not multiple platforms. With such extensive use, it is not strange that social media addiction (SMA) has become a focal point for many researchers.focal adj. 中心的；重要的Is social media addictive? (Q1) It is worth noting that the DSM-5 (the diagnostic tool for psychologists) does not recognize SMA as a distinct mental disorder; it is often discussed as a condition that requires more research. Thus, the conversations around SMA are not necessarily straightforward.DSM-5 《精神障碍诊断与统计手册》第五版diagnostic adj. 诊断的；用于判断的Within the research literature, SMA has been described as a specific form of digital technology addiction. It refers to the excessive and compulsive use of social media platforms, which can lead to detrimental life consequences. SMA shares components with behavioral disorders like gambling, including salience, mood modification, tolerance, withdrawal, conflict, and relapse.compulsive adj. 强迫性的；难以自控的salience n. 显著性relapse n. 复发；重新陷入（不良状态）(Q2) In a study reviewing over 30,000 participants’ scores on media addiction and personality, it was found that neuroticism can be a risk factor for compulsive social media behavior. Even though the relationship was not very strong, it perhaps indicates that some people may be more likely to become addicted. There are other personality characteristics associated with increased likelihood of compulsion, such as narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. But it needs to be mentioned that there may be external factors that contribute to the link between excessive social media use and personality. It is even possible that SMA may vary depending on the platform that individuals use.compulsion n. 强迫（行为）；难以抗拒的冲动narcissism n. 自恋；自我中心Machiavellianism n. 权谋主义psychopathy n. 精神病态Should social media be legislated?To what extent social media ought to be controlled by law is a difficult question to address. Just as with debates around tobacco, alcohol, and gambling, there are bound to be varied opinions. (Q3) As more researchers appear to agree that SMA may be a genuine addictive disorder, then presumably, as with other substances, it should be managed to reduce potential risks. (Q4) The cognitive complexity involved in deciding what to view online is also one that should be carefully debated when it comes to children. In most societies, children are guided as to what they can watch in the cinema or on television. It is difficult to see why social media ought to be any different.Part III. KEYQ1. B.【解析】细节题。题目出处为：“It is worth noting that the DSM-5 (the diagnostic tool for psychologists) does not recognize SMA as a distinct mental disorder; it is often discussed as a condition that requires more research.”。意为：“值得注意的是，《精神障碍诊断与统计手册》第五版（心理学家使用的诊断工具）并不未将社交媒体成瘾视为一种独立的精神障碍；它通常被视为一种需要进一步研究的状况来讨论。”因此，正确答案为B。Q2. C.【解析】细节题。题目出处为：“In a study reviewing over 30,000 participants’ scores on media addiction and personality, it was found that neuroticism can be a risk factor for compulsive social media behavior.” 意为：“一项针对3万余名参与者在媒体成瘾和人格特质方面评分的研究发现，神经质可能是强迫性社交媒体使用行为的一个风险因素。” 该句明确指出神经质是风险因素之一，因此，正确答案为C。Q3. A.【解析】推理题。题目出处为：“As more researchers appear to agree that SMA may be a genuine addictive disorder, then presumably, as with other substances, it should be managed to reduce potential risks.”。意为：“随着越来越多的研究者似乎认同社交媒体成瘾可能是一种真实存在的成瘾性障碍，那么可以推断，就像对待其他成瘾物质一样，也应对其进行管控，以减少潜在风险。”由此可以推断，正确答案为A。Q4. C.【解析】细节题。题目出处为：“The cognitive complexity involved in deciding what to view online is also one that should be carefully debated when it comes to children. In most societies, children are guided as to what they can watch in the cinema or on television. It is difficult to see why social media ought to be any different.” 意为：“在涉及儿童时，对于在线内容选择所涉及的认知复杂性，也应进行审慎的讨论。在大多数社会中，儿童观看影院或电视节目的内容都会受到引导和限制，而社交媒体在这方面显然不应例外。” 该段表明作者认为儿童在社交媒体上的浏览内容也应受到引导，因此正确答案为C。Q5. D.【解析】主旨题。全文围绕社交媒体的吸引力、是否成瘾、以及应如何应对展开探讨，因此主要探讨社交媒体的吸引力及其引发的担忧，正确答案为D。 （本文图片来源于摄图网，版权归摄图网所有)

何为智者？What makes a person wise?常速 | 五级（易）| 350词 | 2min18s刘立军供稿Part I. QUESTIONSListen to the news and choose the best answer to each question you hear.Q1. According to the text, what do all cultures not agree on regarding wisdom? A. Its importance in society. B. Its definition and components. C. Its connection to intelligence. D. Its role in spiritual practices. Q2. What are the two characteristics associated with wisdom according to the study? A. Emotional stability and logical reasoning. B. Intelligence and cultural adaptability. C. Compassionate love and spiritual understanding. D. Socio-emotional awareness and reflective orientation. Q3. What can be inferred about the role of emotions in being perceived as wise? A. Emotions should always be suppressed to appear wise. B. Emotions are irrelevant to the perception of wisdom. C. Emotions need to be balanced with logical thinking. D. Emotions are more important than reflective orientation. Q4. What does the apple pie analogy in ‘The Cambridge Handbook of Wisdom’ illustrate? A. Different cultures have their own unique wisdom traditions. B. Wisdom is like an apple pie that everyone enjoys equally. C. Wisdom is universally agreed upon across cultures. D. Wisdom is best understood through spiritual practices. Q5. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To explore the universal definition of wisdom. B. To discuss how wisdom is perceived across cultures. C. To highlight the importance of emotional intelligence. D. To explain the relationship between wisdom and intelligence. Part II. TRANSCRIPTWhat makes a person wise?Think of the wisest person you know. What is it that makes them wise? What qualities do they have? Does wisdom mean the same for you as it does for me? (Q1) All cultures value wisdom, but not all cultures agree on its definition. For some, the focus is on intelligence, while others emphasise compassionate love for others. In some cultures, a spiritual component is required to be considered wise. Are there any aspects of wisdom that all cultures can agree on?compassionate adj. 富有同情心的 A group of 34 researchers from all over the world and from fields like psychology, philosophy and anthropology got together to explore ‘Dimensions of wisdom perception across twelve countries on five continents’. The study found two characteristics that everyone — from urban university students in Peru to villagers in rural India — associated with wisdom.anthropology n. 人类学 perception n. 感知，认识 (Q2-1) The first quality a wise person must have is ‘socio-emotional awareness’. This is about the ability to understand others’ point of view and really care about their thoughts and feelings.(Q2-2) However, this person must also have the second quality: ‘reflective orientation’, which is about using logic and past experience to make judgments. (Q3) If you are mindlessly driven by emotions and don’t think before you act, then you are unlikely to be perceived as wise. So, if you want to be wise, learn to both keep your cool and put yourself in others’ shoes.But, while this study helps us build a more unified definition of wisdom, the world is vast and cultures vary hugely. In ‘The Cambridge Handbook of Wisdom’, the authors make an apple pie analogy, comparing pie to wisdom. Imagine your grandmother makes your favourite apple pie — she represents the wisdom you think is best. Now, imagine you take this apple pie to the Amazon rainforest, where apples don’t grow. For the locals, the pie isn’t as good as their own traditional desserts; they’ve grown up with different flavours and ingredients, (Q4) just as different cultures have developed their own wisdom traditions. Ultimately, the way wisdom is experienced, shared, and valued depends on the cultural ingredients involved.analogy n. 类比，比喻 Part III. KEYQ1. B.【解析】细节题。根据“All cultures value wisdom, but not all cultures agree on its definition.”，可见所有文化都重视智慧，但都对智慧的定义看法不一致。正确答案为B。 Q2. D.【解析】细节题。根据“The first quality a wise person must have is ‘socio-emotional awareness’.”以及“However, this person must also have the second quality: ‘reflective orientation’”，可知研究将智慧与两大特质联系起来。第一个特质是“社会情感认知”，第二个特质是“反思思辨能力”。正确答案为D。 Q3. C.【解析】推理题。根据“If you are mindlessly driven by emotions and don’t think before you act, then you are unlikely to be perceived as wise.”，可知如果被情绪盲目驱使，且在行动前不假思索就不算有智慧，由此可推断，情绪需要与逻辑思维相互平衡，因此正确答案为C。 Q4. A.【解析】细节题。根据“Just as different cultures have developed their own wisdom traditions.”，可知不同文化发展了自己的智慧传统。苹果派的类比意在说明不同文化拥有各自独特的智慧传统，因此正确答案为A。 Q5. B.【解析】主旨题。根据全文，文章主要探讨了智慧在不同文化中的定义和感知方式，因此正确答案为B。 （本文图片来源于摄图网，版权归摄图网所有)

To explain the relationship between eating speed and health. B. To provide tips for managing eating disorders. C. To discuss the benefits of eating quickly. D. To explore the role of hormones in weight gain. Part II. TRANSCRIPT How the speed of eating affects our health Could eating fast make you gain more weight? Research suggests people who eat faster tend to have a higher body weight. So how fast are we talking? (Q1) It takes around 20 minutes from when we start eating for the brain to register that we’ve had enough. So if you’re rushing your meal, you might unwittingly overeat. (Q2) In one small study, people who ate the same meal in 24 minutes instead of six said they felt fuller with lower levels of the hunger hormone ghrelin found in their blood. And, they ate about 100 fewer calories’ worth of snacks three hours later. (Q3) Studies have also linked fast eating with higher rates of belly fat, blood pressure, and metabolic problems like type 2 diabetes. A small Japanese study found higher peaks of blood sugar in healthy women who took 10 minutes to eat a meal instead of 20. Consistently high blood sugar can lead to things like cardiovascular problems in people with and without diabetes. Now, if all this makes you want to eat more slowly, (Q4) nutritionists have some tips, like using smaller spoons, consciously chewing more, and taking a sip of water in between mouthfuls. Of course, if you’re worried your eating speed might be related to an eating disorder, it would be a good idea to seek medical advice.unwitting adj. 无意的，未察觉的 overeat v. 吃得过多 hormone n. 激素 metabolic adj. 新陈代谢的 cardiovascular adj. 心血管的 Part III. KEYQ1. B.【解析】细节题。根据“It takes around 20 minutes from when we start eating for the brain to register that we’ve had enough.”，可知从我们开始吃东西到大脑意识到我们已经吃饱，大约需要20分钟。正确答案为B。 Q2. C.【解析】细节题。根据“In one small study, people who ate the same meal in 24 minutes instead of six said they felt fuller with lower levels of the hunger hormone ghrelin found in their blood. And, they ate about 100 fewer calories’ worth of snacks three hours later.”，可知研究发现，那些在24分钟内而不是6分钟内吃完同样食物的人，他们饱腹感更强，饥饿激素水平更低。此外，他们在三小时后摄入的零食热量也更少。正确答案为C。 Q3. D.【解析】推理题。根据“Studies have also linked fast eating with higher rates of belly fat, blood pressure, and metabolic problems like type 2 diabetes.”，可知快速进食与更高的腹部脂肪率、高血压以及2型糖尿病等代谢问题是相关联的。也就是说，快速进食可能会增加代谢谢类疾病风险，因此正确答案为D。 Q4. C.【解析】细节题。根据“Nutritionists have some tips, like using smaller spoons, consciously chewing more, and taking a sip of water in between mouthfuls.”，可知营养学家提供了一些建议，比如使用较小的勺子，有意识地多咀嚼，以及在每口之间喝一口水。正确答案为C。 Q5. A.【解析】主旨题。根据全文，文章主要讨论了吃东西的速度如何影响健康，讲解快速进食可能导致的健康问题以及如何通过慢速进食改善健康。因此正确答案为A。 （本文图片来源于摄图网，版权归摄图网所有)

TRANSCRIPTThe Sudden Death of a Man Who Told Chinese Kids How to SucceedAny Chinese parent or student fixated on education — so, basically, most Chinese parents and students — knew the name Zhang Xuefeng. (Q1) As China’s most famous education influencer, Mr. Zhang was known for dispensing ruthlessly blunt advice about how to maximize a student’s chances at success.fixate v. 专注于；对……过分执著(Q2) The liberal arts? Only good for service jobs, he declared. Finance? Don’t bother unless your family has connections. Fast-talking and sharp-tongued, to his detractors, he was cynical and utilitarian. But to his tens of millions of fans, he embodied a rare willingness to acknowledge the harsh realities facing less privileged students, especially in the face of steep inequality and a slowing economy.detractor n. 贬低者；诋毁者utilitarian adj. 功利的；实用主义的So when Mr. Zhang suddenly died on Tuesday at age 41, of cardiac arrest, it prompted an outpouring — not only of shock, but also of reflection.cardiac adj. 心脏的；心脏病的outpouring n. （情感的）涌出，迸发(Q3) On social media, people asked: Had he steered young Chinese to better lives or discouraged their idealism? (5) What did his abrupt death, after he had long complained of being exhausted and overworked, say about China’s hypercompetitive work culture? And if life was so unpredictable, did planning so carefully for success that seemed increasingly out of reach even matter?hypercompetitive adj. 高度竞争的；竞争异常激烈的“Zhang Xuefeng’s lesson to lost young people: Enjoy your life,” was one of the top hashtags on Chinese social media on Wednesday, where news of Mr. Zhang’s death dominated discussion. “Excessive self-discipline” was another, a response to state media reports that Mr. Zhang had collapsed after going for a run in Suzhou, the city in eastern China where he lived.Another popular education influencer, Zhu Wei, posted a long tribute online, praising Mr. Zhang’s vigor and sincerity. Mr. Zhu urged his own students to slow down in their pursuit of test scores and jobs.“But I also know, what’s the cruelest thing about the age of internet traffic? It’s that nothing lasts even a month before it’s forgotten,” Mr. Zhu wrote. “Everyone will soon go back to their usual state, endlessly striving and slogging, never able to stop.”slog v. 埋头苦干；坚持不懈地努力Mr. Zhang was born in a small town in northern China. His real name was Zhang Zibiao, though he later adopted the name Xuefeng. He tested into a middling university, where he studied water supply and drainage, for which he had little enthusiasm, according to interviews he gave. After graduation, he turned to tutoring and college counseling.He shot to fame in 2016, for a video in which he — in what would become his signature rapid-fire, snark-infused patter — summarized China’s top 34 universities in seven minutes. He started a consulting company where he helped students choose majors, internships, and careers based on cold-eyed considerations of their test scores, family backgrounds, and whether they prioritized money or stability. His livestreams attracted hundreds of thousands of views, and his courses could cost thousands of dollars.patter n. 顺口溜；（饶舌的）念叨internship n. 实习；实习期His celebrity came as much from his advice as his willingness to provoke. A comment in 2023 that parents should knock their children unconscious rather than let them study journalism, because of the weak job prospects, set off days of online debate. Critics said he misunderstood the point of education or was suggesting that poorer students shouldn’t follow their dreams.“I come from an ordinary family,” Mr. Zhang wrote in response. (Q4) “If you come from a wealthy family, you have more choices, you can’t choose wrongly. But most families aren’t that well-off, and when choosing a major, you have to choose one that’s suitable and will put food on the table.”Part III. KEYQ1. B.【解析】细节题。题目出处为：“As China’s most famous education influencer, Mr. Zhang was known for dispensing ruthlessly blunt advice about how to maximize a student’s chances at success.”。意为：“作为中国最著名的教育类网红，张雪峰以提供直截了当的建议而闻名，这些建议聚焦于如何最大限度地提升学生未来成功的几率。”因此正确答案为B。Q2. C.【解析】细节题。题目出处为：“The liberal arts? Only good for service jobs, he declared. Finance? Don’t bother unless your family has connections.”。意为：“人文学科？他宣称只适合服务业。金融？除非家里有关系，否则别费劲了。”该句明确指出张雪峰认为人文学科主要通向服务类工作，而金融行业需要家庭人脉，因此正确答案为C。Q3. A.【解析】细节题。题目出处为：“On social media, people asked: Had he steered young Chinese to better lives or discouraged their idealism?”。 意为：“在社交媒体上，人们纷纷发问：他究竟是引导了中国年轻人走向更好的生活，还是打击了他们的理想主义？”因此正确答案为A。Q4. B.【解析】推理题。题目出处为：“If you come from a wealthy family, you have more choices, you can’t choose wrongly. But most families aren’t that well-off, and when choosing a major, you have to choose one that’s suitable and will put food on the table.”。意为：“如果你来自富裕家庭，你有更多选择，你不会选错。但大多数家庭并不那么富裕，在选择专业时，你必须选择一个合适的、能养家糊口的专业。”该句明确指出张雪峰认为普通家庭的学生应该选择实际且能维持生计的专业，因此正确答案为B。Q5. D.【解析】主旨题。文章的核心内容是张雪峰的突然离世引发了人们对其各种教育建议以及中国高度竞争性的工作文化的反思，因此正确答案为D。（本文图片来源于摄图网，版权归摄图网所有)

第12届教学大赛商务英语组特等奖潘紫萌授课

授课点评：潘紫萌老师在本次大赛中与来自全国各地的商务英语优秀教师展开激烈角逐，在教学理念、教学方法、课堂设计、英语素质、商务知识、教姿教态、师生互动等方面的表现都较突出，最后以总分第一荣获特等奖。潘老师以准确的英语发音先声夺人，丰富的表达方式、适中的语调语速和端庄的教姿教态也令人印象深刻。在课程设计环节，为实现其教学目标，她选择business ethics作为主题，介绍了教学目标、学生特征、以学生为中心和以产出为导向的教学理念，以及线上线下结合、传统和高科技媒体结合等丰富多彩的教学方式。这份介绍全面立体但简明扼要，为后面的演示（demo）课提供了一个很好的支撑。由于大赛的授课时间有限，潘老师突出重点，在演示课上只展示教学方案的第三步，即participatory learning 1 和 post assessment 1。她采用BOPPPS（bridge in, objectives, pre-assessment, participatory learning, post assessment, summary）模型，通过德国大众汽车减排作假、中国支付宝公益植树项目等案例，教学目标涵盖商务英语知识、技能、以及相关的伦理和价值观等。在短短的十几分钟里要达到这么多项教学目标绝非易事。潘老师通过一系列的短视频、多种教学方法（如听力填空、案例讨论、汉译英、样本对话补正等）以及活泼的师生互动，较好地实现了教学目标，显示出选手突出的课堂组织能力。商务英语教学起源于英美等国，因此基本使用本国素材、讲本国故事。传入中国后，主要使用外国素材、讲外国故事。令人欣喜的是，潘老师注意突出中国特色，多次引用中国案例，讲授中国故事，传播中国价值观。加上她出色的英语基本功和良好的师生互动，使得教学过程十分流畅，也没有不同文化同场展示的违和感。总而言之，潘紫萌老师在授课环节的各方面表现都很优秀。不足之处当然也有。首先， 8’13’’开始的讨论过于仓促，只有18秒， 8’31’’就结束了。由于讨论不充分，在随后的问答环节中，更多的回答似乎来自老师而不是学生。第二个是要增加教学过程的自然自发 (spontaneity)。不知是因为课前多次排练还是老师特意要求，学生的产出只有一次对话（17’40’’）相对自然，其他的多次回答虽准确无误，但都像中国小学生朗读课文或回答问题，语音、语调、语速都过于整齐合一，这不利于培养学生的英语实际表达能力。点评专家：陈准民

第12届教学大赛英语专业组特等奖胡笑然授课

授课点评：胡笑然老师以充分的课前准备、认真的育人态度、专业的学科素养、科学的教学方法，在限定的20分钟时间内出色地完成了所指定的授课任务，为全国高校英语专业师生呈现了一堂值得学习和反思的短课。在整个授课过程中，胡老师精神饱满，着装端庄，形象甜美，教态自然，认真专注，热情友好，充满活力，展现了良好的个人魅力，体现了青年教师的时代风貌。胡老师具有扎实的英语基本功、娴熟的课堂掌控能力和应变能力、流畅的语言表达能力；综述简洁明了，呈现单元设计、教学目标、相关活动和拟用时间；授课有明确的目标，以学生为中心，围绕单元主题和语篇意义，突出重点，聚焦难点，讲解和引导规范适切。胡老师有自己的教学理念，能运用一定的教学理论，遵循“题材—功能—活动”的教学原则，重视语言感知和信息获取，围绕单元主题展开教学，各教学步骤衔接自然。能注重培养学生的观察力、想象力和分析能力，积极帮助学生通过语篇学习，了解重要概念以及语篇作者的观念和意图，努力激发学生对语篇主题的学习兴趣，师生之间有积极的互动和良好的交流。能充分利用和发挥电子课件的辅助教学功能， PPT和嵌入视频有良好的功能性和实用性，形式与内容相吻合，体现了课件形式与课文内容、教学手段与教学目的有机关联和主从关系，发挥了现代化教学资源及手段的教学辅助作用，增强了学生对单元主题和语言表述的理解。从整体上看，胡老师的授课比较成功。授课目的明确，授课重点突出，内容讲解清晰，活动安排合理，起承转合自然，师生互动自然，课件使用得当，教学效果较好。当然，她所展示的这堂英语短课仍存在以下待改进之处：授课停留在主题词语的概念解读层面，对主题意义的挖掘不够深入；教师个人主导成分太强，讲解和提问过多，学生活动不足，活动形式比较单一；时间把握不够合理，没有时间结尾，匆忙收课，无法安排课后作业和课外活动；授课时间用于教学，缺乏对教学成效的必要评价活动，难以确定单元教学目标的达成。建议胡老师在今后的教学研究和实践中，更加重视单元设计的完整性和课堂教学的有效性，关注输入与输出、课内与课外、语篇意义与语言形式的协调，注重教学手段、过程、效果的统一，促进学生在语言知识、语用技能、心智、情感、态度等方面的综合发展和提高。点评专家：梅德明
