18、e greatest puddings” and “the best ever steak”. But now the traditional Sunday roast seems to have been left back in the old days. According to the Daily Mail, just one in 50 British families sits down to this weekly meal together. There are many reasons why the roast is becoming less popular. In th
19、e busy modern world, where breakfast is a slice of toast eaten on the way to work or school and lunch is a quick sandwich in front of the computer screen, people just dont seem to have the time or patience to make a roast. And Sunday was once a day when people could easily go to the kitchen to cook.
20、 Nowadays, people are often out shopping or at the cinema until its far too late to start thinking about heating the oven(烤箱) up. However, a recent article from The Telegraph warned against being carried away by our tight schedules: “It would be a shame to let this fine old tradition disappear.” The
21、 Guardian further explained that the eating of the big meal is only the half of it. The Sunday roast also makes for relaxed morning activities in the kitchen, and the table becomes the perfect place to share good food and chat with family and friends. “For busy moms and dads, even if you can manage
22、to turn off your mobile phone and the TV only once a week and turn the Sunday roast into a real family event, children can have fun cooking the food and clearing up together.”24.

23、Time for Us D. Lets Sit Down Together25. Why do people pay less attention to Sunday roast? A. They have a busy lifestyle. B. They have no interest in cooking. C. They dont think it worthwhile. D.

24、 to? A. A recent article. B. A traditional kitchen. C. The fine old tradition. D. Sunday morning activity.27. How does the author feel towards Sunday roasts dying out?A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Sorry. D. Uncertain.C How many times do you check your Facebook page in a day to see whether your latest
25、 post has got another “like” or “thumbs up”? Although you might be embarrassed to admit how many times you do this, dont worry - psychological findings have shown its completely normal. In fact, the pleasure we derive from receiving a “like” is equal to that of eating chocolate or winning money, and
26、 we cant help wanting more. According to the findings, which observed 32 teens aged between 13 and 18, the feedback circuit in the teens brains is particularly sensitive, and the “social” and “visual” parts of their brains were active when they received “likes” on the social network. The research al
27、so showed that though the thumbs up might come from complete strangers, the good they derive from them worked all the same. So, does it mean we should try our best to win as many thumbs up as possible? Not necessarily so if we know the reasons behind our desire for attention. In “why do people long
28、for attention” by M. Farouk Radwan, he explained several cases in which people naturally longed for attention. Radwan said people who were an only child, who were used to being the center of attention in their house, may try to copy these conditions. Feeling “overlooked and unappreciated” might also
29、 lead you to long for attention. Other times, the state of being jealous or wanting to cover your mistakes may also contribute to such longings. In fact, too much desire for attention can create anxiety, and in turn ruin your happiness even when you get it. So what can we do about it? The answer is
30、quite simple. “If people could adopt goals not focused on their own self-esteem but on something larger than their self, such as what they can create or contribute to others, they would be less sensitive to some of the negative effects of pursuing self-esteem,” wrote psychology professor Jennifer Cr
31、ocker. So perhaps the answer to our addiction to “likes” is simply to focus on something larger than ourselves - a hard, but a worthy one. 28. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “derive” in Paragraph 2? A. deliver B. give C. prevent D. get29. Whats the reaction of receiving “like
32、s” on the social network to the brain? A. The brain becomes more nervous. B. Some parts of the brain are active. C. The brain becomes less sensitive. D. The brain becomes cleverer.30. Who wants to get more attention according to the passage? A. the only child. B. The old who lives happily with child
33、ren. C. The young who feels anxious. D. Teens who want to discover their mistakes.31. Whats Crockers suggestion about the negative effects of getting self-esteem? A. Doing an interesting matter. B. Working harder than ever before. C. Having a bigger goal than their self. D. Not checking your Faceboo
