【解析】由于数码科学技术的发展,独处的机会不复存在。尽管人们对现代科技持有不同的看法,但是没有科技的进步,我们的生活完全会是另一个样子。 (1)C 结合前面的“Inthe world of digital technology, email, social networking and online videogames”可知,信息是要“共享的”,故答案选C。update“使现代化,更新”;receive“收到”;share“分享”;collect“收集;使集合”。 (2)C 句意:独处一旦被放弃就很难再找到。though“尽管,虽然”;until“直到……;在……之前(用于否定句)”;once“一旦,一经……便……”;before“在……之前”。结合句意可知应选C。 (3)B 科学技术对文化产生影响,即:新技术塑造(shaped)了我们的文化,故选B。respect“尊敬,尊重”;shape“塑造,形成”;ignore“忽视,不理会”;preserve“保存,保护”。 (4)C 结合下文内容可知,现代科技无处不在,即使不想联系都已不可能,故此处应为“要联系的这种欲望已经结束了独处”。此处为固定搭配bring sth.to an end“使某事结束”,因此应选C。 (5)D 根据下一段的最后一句“Being reachable might feel like a...”可知应选D项。reachable“可达成的;可触及的”;sensitive“敏感的”;intelligent“聪明的”;considerate“周到的”。 (6)A 句意:人们已经处于一个网络与联系的世界里了,即使他们不想这样。此处为even if引导的让步状语从句。(7)B 根据常识可知,“email,chatand blog(写博客)”一般是在电脑(computers)上完成的,但是还可以通过手机进行。 (8)D 句意:大多数发达国家已经很依赖数字技术,仅仅是因为他们已经习惯了。dependent“依靠的,依赖的”,符合语境。 (9)B 和上句相对应,人们已经习惯了用数字技术,所以如果不用它,就将会使自己成为一个局外人。所以答案是B项。 (10)A 本句是对上句内容的递进:人们不仅仅是依赖数字技术,而且许多工作也要求人们要通过数字技术联系起来。故A项符合语境。 (11)A connect“联系,连接”;train“训练”;recommend“推荐”;interest“使感兴趣”。根据上题解析可知,A项符合语境。 (12)C 根据后文中的否定含义可知,这种依赖对于不想被联系的人来说是个负担。pleasure“乐趣,乐事”;benefit“好处,益处”;burden“负担”;disappointment“失望”。 (13)D 句意:独处对于那些真正(really)需要它的人来说,仍然是可能的。故D项符合语境。 (14)B 此处电脑关机和下文中的手机关机在语境上一致,故选B项。shut down computers“关闭电脑”。 (15)C 根据后文中的“as well as disadvantages”可得知答案为C项advantages。aspect“方面”;weakness“弱点”;advantage“优点,优势”;exception“例外,除外”。 (16)B 句意:当旅行者在山上迷路时,手机可以救无数人的性命。故B项lost符合语境。 (17)A 由后文中被迫接电话和发信息可知,手机也会使人们感到陷入困境(trapped)。excited“激动的,兴奋的”;confused“困惑的”;amused“愉悦的”。 (18)D 结合生活常识可以判断,此处意为:答复电话和回复短信。turn to“转向;求助于”;submit to“递交”;object to“反对,反抗”;reply to“回复,答复”。 (19)A 此处是对全文的总结,即:人们对于如此联系着的社会存在各种各样的观点。vary“使多样化;不同”;arise“引起;上升”;spread“展开;扩展”;exist“存在”。故选A项vary。 (20)D 此处是文章观点的升华,使用双重否定句突出主题,即:人们的生活离不开科技。beyond“在……之外”;within“在……范围内”;despite“尽管”;without“没有”。故D项符合语境。

Developing self-confidence is one of the most important things you can do to create a more powerful, successful life. It influences all aspects of our lives, from relationships to career. But the journey is long. That's why it's so important to have a long term goal, but to break it up into small manageable parts.
Here are 5 quick tips to make this a confident week:
① Sit up!
Set your alarm to go off 3 times throughout the day to check in with your posture (姿势). Body language is one of the quickest ways to gain instant confidence.

Have lunch with someone in your office that you don't normally hang out with.Breaking your routine (常规) allows you to jump out of your comfort zone which is a great means for self confidence breakthroughs.
③Work it out.
Whether it be a fast walk for part of your lunch, or a quick work out during the tea break in the afternoon, it will surely do you good. Exercise fills the body with positive energy that you will be projecting throughout the day. Good health is not just an important part of living well —it also happens to be an instant confidence builder.
④Involve yourself in a social activity that you normally wouldn't
Putting yourself out in the world forces you to face situations and meet people. In this way you can slowly build your confidence so you can find your place in it. This is one of the most rewarding things you can do.

You have to keep feeding your mind.
