He asked me to give a speech at gradation. I gaped(目瞪口呆地凝视)at him, my heart thumping.

To her disappointment, however,it did notturn out that way later. As soon as they were led to their seats and she began to order dishes, he buried himself in his mobile phone ‎“It seemed that his phone was making its way between us. A date that should have belonged to us turned into one where my boyfriend dated a third party and I felt left out. " Gao said. some people, like her, have found that electronics have been sabotaging(破坏) their romantic relationships.‎ A study, published in the journal Psychology of Popular Media Culture in April 2017, questioned nearly 200 college aged adults who were in committed relationships to report on their and their partner’s smartphone dependency. The results showed peoplewhoweremoredependentontheirphoneswerelesssureabouttheirrelationships, and people who considered their partners excessively (过度地) dependent on their devices were less satisfied in their relationship.‎ Lin Yuan, a relationship advisor in Beijing, noted that as more and more electronics come out and spice up people’s lives, they are at the same timebecoming a third party in relationships, especially for young people.‎ Lin said she knew of some people who suggest that electronics should be kept out of bedrooms, which she considered challenging and hard to be put into practice for most couples.

The relationship between man and smart phone D You might make a disgusted face when you notice that the person waiting in their car at the red light next to you is picking their nose,but admit it,you do it too.And while it might be the natural option when there isn't a box of tissues around,it can be bad for you.The main reasons people feel the need to pick their nose is to clear it of dried liquid,stop an itch（痒）,or just because it feels good.Boogers（鼻屎） form when dried liquid and cilia,the tiny hairs that line the nostrils（鼻孔）,trap the dust,dirt,and other things.When boogers build up in your nose,it can be uncomfortable,andsometimesjustblowingintoatissue（纸巾） doesn'tdothetrick.‎ Otolaryngologist Erich P.Voigt,MD,told Business Insider that picking your nose cancauseinjuriesandbleedingwithinyournostrils.That'snotterriblydamaging,but when the bacteria from your hands get into your body,it can cause a cold and flu.So doctors strongly suggest not picking the nose.‎ If dry winter air is causing the dirty liquid to harden in your nostrils,making you want to pick,consider damping the air at home,or taking a steam shower to soften things up in there.‎ Children,who are most famous for having a finger up their nose,sometimes don't realize how much injury they're causing,and sometimes it.can lead to nose bleeds.‎ So,next time you go to pick your nose,think about how many bacteria are on your hands and in your boogers, and maybe reach for a tissue instead.Even if you 're alone,and not waiting for the light to turn green,please,use a tissue.‎ ‎32.Why do people pick their nose?‎ A.Because they want to disgust others.

The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago. 36_ . In fact, nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural (乡村的) villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in history--- a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living.‎ Britain was only the beginning. 37 .The process of urbanization--- the migration (迁移) of people from the countryside to the city--- was the result of modernization, which has rapidly transformed how people live and where they live.‎ In 1990, fewer than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas. Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms. 38 .‎ Large cities were impossible until agriculture became industrialized. Even in advanced agricultural societies. It took about ninety-five people on farms to feed five people in cities. 39 .Untilmoderntimes,thoselivingincitiesweremainly the ruling elite(精英) andthe servants, laborers and professionals who served them.‎ ‎ Cities survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of surplus food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus from farm to city.‎ Over the past two centuries, the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance between the city and the country. 40_ . Today, instead of needing ninety-five farmers to feed five city people, one American farmer is able to feed more than a hundred non-farmers.‎ A. That kept cities very small.‎ B. The rest live in small towns.‎ C. The effects of urban living on people should be considered.‎ D. Soon many other industrial nations become urban societies.‎ E. But even 200 years ago, only a few people could live in cities.‎ F. Modernization drew people to the cities and made farmers more productive.‎ A. Modern cities have destroyed social relations and the health of human beings.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用 In elementary school, I was living with my parents and my brother in a rented apartment in New York City.

It was a 50 time.‎ The only good part about living in the shelter was that I got to go to a(n) 51 program that was run by the Coalition for the Homeless.
