Connecting with people has become so much easier with advancing technology. Tasks that once

required a postage stamp or carrier pigeon are now as simple as tapping a name or even a face on your screen, and

you’re connected. But also easier is unconsciously getting caught up in a dilemma by violating certain new rules for

communicating. A big one for some: Don’t call until you’ve texted to confirm it’s OK to call. But that’s just the

beginning.

“I’m usually pretty mild and not much bothers me,” said Mark Angielle, a 22-year-old office manager from White

Plains, New York. But the one thing that he hates more than anything else in life is the terrible one-word message —

“K.” “At the very least reply with, Got it.” he said “At least give me a few words here. You’re not that busy.”

There are hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of others who have taken Lo social media to express their distaste for

people who don’t follow the unwritten rules of digital communication.

“These rules are simply a new display of a phenomenon we’ve seen in the past,” said James Ivory, professor of

communication a Virginia Tech. In the same way that generations and small groups of friends have their own slang and

customs, internet culture has given birth to technology-dependent beings that have their own unique set of routine.

But not everyone gets the point. Unlike language, digital communication can be filled with ambiguous clues (

线索、

迹象

) that the person on the other end of the call, text or email may or may not easily understand.

“As soon as people aren’t talking face to face, the first thing that gets lost is some of the richness of the body

language,” Ivory said, “People immediately fill that gap by using emoji (

表情符号

) to sum up a feeling in seconds.

“There's great potential for danger,” Ivory warned. “What's considered polite in one form might be inappropriate

or rude in another occasion.”

Jack sends “Thanks a lot” to his business friends.

I attended a writer’s group to get feedback on my book. But there were so many people there that

22.(8分)

the discussion was limited. After getting home, my 13-year-old son asked me to read one chapter to him. So I read the

chapter about spending my pocket money as a nine-year-old child.

The story took place at a lunch counter, where I dreamed of ordering a banana split. Colorful balloons were

hung above the counter and a sign said “Pop a balloon and pay 1 cent to 63 cents for a banana split!” As I was given

only 50 cents for cleaning the doghouse, I didn’t dare to ask my parents for any more pocket money without doing

more work or risk asking anyone else. So I kept my wish to myself.

Frankie listened carefully, as I read the final sentences of the chapter, “I watched as others selected a balloon to

pop and dreamed about the opportunity to take my chance. But it never happened.”

The next morning, Frankie led me to the kitchen. I couldn’t believe my eyes. The table was covered in a pile of

balloons. Frankie handed me 50 cents and a fork. “Pop one!” he urged. With tears in my eyes, I broke one. A piece of

paper fell out of the balloon.

“What does it say?” Frankie asked. “Fifty cents,” I whispered, too moved to speak loudly. Frankie asked, “Well,

do you have 50 cents?” I handed him the money. “OK!” Then Frankie pulled out a banana split from the refrigerator.

I hugged Frankie hard. We took turns popping the other balloons until I finally got the 1-cent balloon. It was a

long-time coming, but worth the wait.

It hit me that the first step in making any wish come true is giving it a voice.

The people of Chicago, Illinois, US, can thank three canals every time they drink a glass of clean water

today. The building of the Illinois-Michigan Canal, the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal and the Cal-Sag Canal all

helped the Chicago River start flowing in a different direction in 1892.

Since their construction over a century ago, these waterways have connected Lake Michigan and the Mississippi

river network and ensured a regular flow of fresh water of Chicago.

However, some unusual and unfortunate side effects have also been created because of their construction. Asian

carp(

鲤鱼

), also known as silver or flying carp, are threatened in their native habitat in the Chinese Heilongjiang,

Yangtze, and Pearl River basins. But they have become increasingly successful at filling the Mississippi river network

since first being introduced into Arkansas catfish farms in the 1970s to control algae(

水藻

). By swimming into the canals

and spreading further across the country, there are now major fears that this introduced species may be able to access

Lake Michigan and the wider Great Lakes - which store an incredible 21 percent of the entire world’s fresh water.

“The actual influence of Asian carp on the Great Lakes has yet to be explained clearly, and we think this

uncertainty is part of the reason why they are such an obvious issue,” says Dr Cory Suski, Associate Professor in the

Department of Natural Resources and Environment Sciences at the University of Illinois. He points out that adult Asian

carp are too large to be hunted by anything locally, that they have a prolific(

多产的

) reproduction rate, and they can

steal food from the other native species in the rivers. “Could they survive in the Great Lakes or is there not enough food

for them?” he asks.

B

puzzled and excited

D

surprised and grateful

Stopping the fish from spreading has therefore become a key concern for local lawmakers, who have made efforts

such as building electric fences in the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal. However, any big efforts to stop the carp - such

as allowing the Chicago River to once again flow in its original direction - would in turn threaten the security of the

city’s water supply, replacing one big problem with another.

1

According to the text, the construction of the three canals .

A

changed the direction of the Mississippi river.

B

brought fresh water to the people of Chicago.

C

lasted for almost a century because of huge cost.

D

has been the largest construction project in US history.

2

According to the text, Asian carps .

A

have nearly become extinct in Chinese rivers.

B

have occupied large areas in the Great Lakes.

C

were introduced to the US to fight against algae pollution.

D

are likely to pollute the fresh water in the Great Lakes.

3

What is the major concern of Asian carp in the US?

A

Its large size and fast reproduction rate.

B

The food shortage facing the species.

C

Its threat to the Great Lakes ecosystem.

D

Its natural enemies in the local areas.

4

What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A

US law makers knew little of the threat caused by Asian carp.

B

Electric fences might not be enough to stop the spread of Asian carp.

C

The Chicago River has changed its flowing direction many times.

D

People in Chicago will soon face a serious water supply shortage.
