23、If someone said they’d pay you $ 1,800 to stay off social media for six years, would you do it? Could you?

Sivert Klefsaas did just that. “I thought it was awesome,” Sivert told CNN Tuesday, “I thought, ‘Ah what’s 6 more years?’”

In 2016, Lorna Goldstrand Klefsaas challenged her 12-year-old son Sivert to stay off social media until he was 18. If he completed the challenge, she’d award him the cash on his eighteenth birthday. On February 19, 2022, Sivert claimed his prize.

Lorna was inspired by a challenge she heard on the radio called the “16 for 16”, where a mother gave her daughter $1,600 when she turned 16 if she stayed off social media, she told CNN. She decided to up the ante (期限) to two extra years and $200 more.

Sivert said it wasn’t too difficult to live without social media, and he didn’t think about it much during the six years. As a 12 year old, Sivert said he wasn’t using social media much anyway. The only app he had prior to the bet was Snapchat—which he deleted a day after trying it out. “I wouldn’t say there was ever a time when I thought I was about to break,” he said. “As it went on, it was more of a pride thing.” He also had his friends to keep him up to date on the latest information or trends.” I got to avoid all the unnecessary drama that was on there.” Sivert added.

Lorna said she never had to check for any sneakily downloaded apps. “He’s so competitive, it was definitely more for proving a point.” she said. It also meant he had more time to focus on his grades and sports instead, Sivert told reporter.

Now $1,800 richer, Sivert told CNN he hasn’t thought about what to buy (when he was 12, he joked he’d get a house), but it’ll likely be something for his dorm room at the University of Northwestern St. Paul, which he’ll attend in the fall.

After Sivet’s success, Lorna took to Facebook to share the challenge. She said it was some of the best money she ever spent. Other parents have seemed interested in trying it out too, she told CNN.

“We are certainly not against social media, but it’s the healthy using of it.” Lorna noted. “It’s about not letting yourself get weighed down by it, or addicted to it, or affected by things that people post.” She added she thinks her son now has a “different perspective” on social media than he would have at age 12.

【1】What do we know about Lorna?

A．She posted the challenge on CNN.

B．She has a different perspective on social media now.

C．She offered Sivert the cash on his sixteenth birthday.

D．She got inspiration from a similar challenge over the radio.

【2】What mainly made Sivert win $1,800?

A．His eagerness to prove himself.

B．His mother’ support.

C．His friends’ encouragement.

D．His casual attitude.

【3】What’s the attitude of other parents towards the challenge?

A．Indifferent.

B．Objective.

C．Favorable.

D．Doubtful.

【4】What advice did Lorna offer at Last?

A．Avoid using social media.

B．Develop a healthy living habit.

C．Try not to be addicted to social media.

D．Escape being influenced by people around you.

24、It’s always sad to see someone lose. I’m sure many of you have experienced at least one disappointment in your life and may face more yet. 【1】 And what is more important is to learn something from it. Here are some tips to help with the pain of failure:

1. Accept it

【2】 It’s not very healthy to be in denial, because if you don’t accept the situation for what it is, you can’t take the next steps to move on. Take a deep breath, and come to terms with what happened.

2. Don’t be an angry loser

If someone else achieved what you wanted, don’t start taking your frustrations out on them. 【3】

3. 【4】

Your support network will help greatly during a tough time. Don’t hesitate to ask for help from your friends and family, and feel delighted in the knowledge that you have loved ones who will stick by you through thick and thin.

4. Move forward

In the course of pursuing your dream, you might be cast down by an ocean of challenges. 【5】 You might even be thankful later for the disappointment, as it may open up an opportunity that you had not previously considered.

Always follow the above tips and enjoy your life to the fullest every day.

A．Reach out to friends and family

B．Always have a sense of responsibility

C．Therefore, problems will be solved in time.

D．It’s OK to fail, but have a good attitude towards it.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Maria and Peter lived in a coastal city. The greatest pleasure in summer for them was to swim at their local beach after school. But one day they started to lose their enthusiasm for swimming in the waters. More often than not, they would find plastic bags thrown on the beach. Worse sill, as they swam in the water, some plastic bags would float around them and even stick to their legs when they walked to the shore.

They were upset and decided something needed to be done to stop the beautiful sea becoming consumed by waste.One weekend,Maria and Peter brought a big bag to the beach and determined to clean it up. Sweat streamed down from their forehead while they bent down and picked up the plastic bags. To their disappointment, after a day’s hard work, there were still many plastic bags lying on the beach or floating in the water. Going home with aching legs and arms, Maria and Peter were almost defeated by a strong sense of failure.

That night over dinner with their parents, the pair ate silently. Noticing their low spirits, Mother asked gently, “You two looked so down. What happened?”Exchanging glances with Peter, Maria replied in a low voice,“It’s those annoying plastic bags. We tried to clean up but it was just impossible.”Understanding the pair’s disappointment, their father patted them on the back and comforted,”Well, it’s really hard for just two of you to fix such a big problem.”“Just two of us.”complained Maria and Peter, looking at each other.Suddenly, an idea lashed through their minds, their eyes shining with excitement.“Yes,that’s the point! We should make more people aware of the problem and encourage them to take action!” the pair said in chorus.
