【题目】阅读短文,并按题目要求用英语回答问题。
I received a private message on Facebook。 It began harmlessly enough: "Hey, girl. Wanted to invite you to join my next challenge group ——we'll be focusing on fitting in 30 minutes of exercise and balanced nutrition.”
It was all becoming too much. Facebook was running my life, not me.
But what killed Facebook for me was when I posted a photo, and five minutes later my son asked me how many "likes" it had got. His question was a wake-up call.
"Likes" arc signs of acceptance and approval. I had forgotten that acceptance and approval need to come from within and had unknowingly set him a bad example.
Before Facebook, surfing the internet was an occasional distraction and I spent a lot more time reading books and magazines. I checked in with friends through texts, emails and phone calls.
To recreate the simplicity of those days and set a healthier example for my son, I deactivated my Facebook account.
I'd been in the habit of checking Facebook many times a day, so I had to come up with some new habits. I carried a novel and a crossword puzzle book around with me. I rediscovered knitting(针织). I started taking yoga classes.
I started to remember a few things. My body is fine just the way it is. I have friends who will help me out when I'm in trouble, and I will help them out. I do my best to be a good mother, and our son is happy and healthy. We are very lucky to be able to afford two vacations a year.
I stopped looking at the world through my cellphone. I felt pleasant at the moment.
The break left me feeling better about myself, my family, my home and my life.
After a few weeks, I returned to Facebook. Now I look at the photos of my friends, kids growing up and treasure how social media allows me to keep in touch with family for and wide. I look in on a daily basis, but no longer with the desire constantly to post updates.
It is not an addiction any more.

【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者之前的生活被Facebook控制了,过分在乎网络中别人是否“喜欢”,因此作者决定脱离Facebook,活在当下,享受现在的生活。
【1】细节理解题。根据第三段的five minutes later my son asked me how many "likes" it had got. His question was a wake-up call.可知,儿子的问题对作者是一个警醒。根据字数,故答案为Her son's question was a wake-up call.
【2】词义猜测题。文中第六段提到To recreate the simplicity of those days and set a healthier example to my son,作者想要恢复之前简单的生活,想要给儿子树立一个好的榜样,同时第一段也提到作者在打开Facebook时有些信息打扰,因此作者想要关掉Facebook。因此推断划线词deactivate意思是:关闭,根据字数,故答案为Close。
【3】细节理解题。文章第7段提到I had to come up with some new habits. I carried a novel and a crossword puzzle book around with me. I rediscovered knitting. I started taking yoga classes.可知,作者不玩Facebook后培养了一些新的兴趣,如随时看书、上瑜伽课等,这些都是非常健康的兴趣,根据字数故答案为She developed some healthy habits.
【4】推理判断题。文章倒数三、四段I stopped looking at the world through my cellphone. I felt pleasant at the moment. The break left me feeling better about myself, my family, my home and my life.阐述停止通过手机看世界。作者感到很愉快。休息使作者对自己、家庭、和生活感觉更好。因此推断作者认为脱落了Facebook,有了时间发现生活中的美,休息让自己对自己、家庭、和生活感觉更好。根据词数,故答案为It gave her time to find beauty in life. Or: The break left her feeling better about herself, her family, her home and her life.
【5】开放题。根据文章可知,对于社交媒体 ,要理智对待,适度使用,适度使用它才不会导致分心和浪费大量时间。注意考虑词数。参考答案为Open. (I think we should use social media moderately. Because using it moderately can't result in distraction and waste a lot of time.)
