I spent 20 minutes looking through hundreds of choices at Amazon Video and still couldn't decide. In the back of my mind, I was thinking that I had to choose a great movie to watch, because if didn't I would be wasting my time. I thought that instead of watching a bad movie, I would be better off using my time in a more meaningful way (I see this as an opportunity cost). After seeing the reviews and asking around for suggestions, ended up watching LaLa Land, a popular movie that most of my friends have seen recently.The next day, I went to Duane Reade to buy toothpaste and was overwhelmed again by the large quantity of the choice. I started wondering if more choices empower consumers or just make them think they are empowered, when in reality they are just at a loss.From finding a good restaurant to searching for your life partner, everything is all about choices; big or small, they are all related. Take dating life in New York for example. There are an endless range of choices which can lead to many New Yorkers finding it hard to make a decision.

Are we being overproteclive about the effect reality TV is having on our child? The answer is "No". Or rather, there's increasing evidence that these programs can have a profound influence on young people.A recent research indicates that sonic reality TV shows can be as damaging for teenage girls as too many cartoons are for kids. The Irulh is that reality TV is anything but realitybut (hat's not necessarily what our children believe. A study of the Girl Scout Research Institute in the US found that eight out of ten girls aged between 11 and 17 who regularly watch reality shows believe these programs describe real life. In fact, much of reality TV is a heavily manipulated (操纵)view of what's really happening, and the worst of it strengthens the sort of female stereotypes women have spent decades trying to remove.Many of the women on reality TV shows are acting out lives as teenage mothers or drama queens. Strong, hard-working, purposeful young women with ambitions beyond their looks are rare in these programs. There's a widespread emphasis on the value of women concerning how they look and dress, which gives young viewers the message that being a woman is all about style and appearance, not what you do or stand for. Imran Siddiquee, Director of Social Media and Outreach, is concerned that these programs show the worst stereotypes of womanhood and "normalize" them in what appear to be everyday settings. "They offer such a limited view of what il is to be a woman, and all over the world young girls are addicted to it," he says.Imran does recognize, however, (hat many girls (hemselves value reality TV. Some say it encourages them to think about situations different from their own. They also point out that some shows feature women running their own successful businesses. "It's important to acknowledge (hat (here are some useful elements in reality TV," Imran says. "But many girls need to be inspired to think more critically about some aspects of these shows so they're not manipulated by them and so their behavior doesn't change because of them."We should encourage our children to be critical thinkers and help them develop their media literacy. Whether reality TV is changing our children's views, or whether they arc attracted to programs (hat agree with iheir beliefs, it's vital we recognize that their viewing habits could strengthen these unbalanced ideas.(1) Who is (his passage most probably intended for?A. General public.B. Teenage girls.C. TV producers.D. Parents.(2) What is the problem with a reality TV show?A. Its contents and views are rather unreal.B. It has removed the usual female stereotypes.C. Its contents and views are rather artificial.D. It overemphasizes young women, s ambitions.(3) According to Imran Siddquee, what should reality TV shows present?A. Tips on how to become fashionable young girls.B. Genuine reflections of females and their work.C. Distinction between ti'ue life and TV dramas.D. Ways to gain more popularity among peers.(4) What is the text mainly about?A. Reality TV shows* impact on young girls and parent* s guidance.B. Situations where teenagers are attracted to certain TV pi'ograms.C. The way to help children to have the habit of critical thinking.1). The stereotypes of women on TV and audience5 s reactions.4、【来源】2021年广东深圳罗湖区深圳中学高三三模第1215题10分(每题2.5分)In 2016, in an Illinois town called Cahokia, a woman was sent to prison just because she failed to tend her lawn (草坪).In 2019, a Florida man was fined $ 30, 000 by the city of Dunedin for allowing his grass lo grow more than 10 inches in height. These examples, while extreme, are not rare occurrence in America.A study estimated that turf grasses (lawns, parks, athletic fields, etc) cover over 40 million acres in the continental U.S., an area larger than any crop area. And Americans spend as much as $ 60 billion a year maintaining these grasses. These impressive data arc the result of Americans' selling much store by these pieces of greenery for several centuries.Centuries ago, only those with considerable wealth could own the resources needed to maintain these displays. In the modem world, lawns have gradually changed from the estates of the wealthy lo the front yards of common people. Across America, millions of families now proudly present their grass to their neighbors and drivers by carefully weeding, watering, fertilizing and mowing these small-scale representations of the grounds.With this context in mind, it's easy to see well-tended lawns in America. People tend to use lawns to create an impression of order or to indicate a sense of personal success. The relative health and attractiveness of the grass in their yard becomes a barometer (晴雨表)for their life as whole.However, with so many acres covered by the grass, the influence associated with lawn maintenance is more than just psychological. To begin, a lawn requires massive quantities of resources to sustain. The U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates that lawns account for about half of homeowner's waler use, much ofwhich is wasted. Additionally, Americans arc reported to use 80 million pounds of chemicals on their lawns e
