Smartphone Mania
Did your father's old car just blow two rear tires on a rural dirt road? Don't worry, pick up your smartphone and open a car service app. Whether you are stuck in a horrendous traffic jam or relaxing in a romantic restaurant, the smartphone, one of the world's latest high-tech gadgets, may be either the answer to your prayers or a major thorm in your flesh. Like it or not,
the smartphone is indispensable in your life While this technological device positively afets society by providing instant communication, it also dehumanizes (使丧失性情) rlatioships and threatens an individual's right to privacy.
The smartphone's positive effect on society stems from its ability to provide instant communication. The device is invaluable to car owners. Nothing makes a motorist with a defective engine happier than opening an app on his smartphone and receiving a message,"The tow truck should arive in ten minutes." Besides, smartphones help keep fiends and family members in touch. For exampl, a minute before midnight, the parents ofa 16 yer-old can video cll their son and gntly shriek, "Get home now, or you will be grounded for the next six months." In short, the smartphone's aillyy to llow anyone to be reached at any time
is a great comfort.
Iriallyy the tcenologigal device that binds society tgeter also treaters to dstrcy it through the poces of dehumaiztion. Just sride down the main stret in the city and in less than five miutes you will obseve a hudred pasesbey ignoring each other as they | mndlesly browse their Wechat moments. Ltelly,y smartphones are replacing lving,breathing human being. Some phone owners, for example, can be heard whispering sweet nothing, such as "Where are you, drling?" to their beloved smartphones. The smartphone,along with other tchnologial advancements, removes the "human" element from society.
So, your boyfriend tried to pop the big question but you couldn't hear him, because another diner's smartphone conversation drowned out his soft, romantic words. Then, why did you kiss your phone yesterday after searching the map online when you were hopelessly lost in the center of the city? Even though smartphones, the great communicators, dehumanize relationships and threaten our privacy, they are too deeply embedded in today's society to become obsolete.

2、​IL. Write an outline. (20 points)
Read the fllowig passage crefullyy and compose a "Topic Outline" for it.
Knowledge About Different Cultures Is Shaking the Foundations of Psychology Psychology was developed largely in North America and Europe. Some would argue it's been remarkably successful in understanding what drives human behavior and mental processes, which have long been thought to be universal. But in recent decades, someresearchers have started questioning this approach, arguing that many psychological phenomena are shaped by the culture we live in.
wOL Consider which two of these objects go together: a panda, a monkey and a banana.
Respondents from Westerm countries routinely select the two animals. This indicates an analytic thinking style, in which objects are largely perceived independently from their context. In contrast, participants from Eastern countries often select the monkey and the banana, because they share a relationship (monkeys eat bananas). This is a holistic thinking style, in which object and context are perceived to be correlated.
In a cassis demonstration of cultural dfferences in thinking styles, participants from Japan and the USA were presented with a series of animated scenes. Lasting about 20 seconds, each scene showed various creatures, vegetation and rocks in an underwater stting. In a subsequent rcall task, both groups were eqully likely to remember the larger fish. But theJapanese pripants were better at rellin background information, such as the color ofthe water. This is because hlistic thinking focuses on background and context just as much as foreground.
The way Westemners descrihe themselves seems to be cultrally bound. They tend to view themselves as free, autonomous and unique individuals, pssessing a set of fixed caraceristis. This feature regarding slfknowledge has even been demonstrated at the brain level. In a brain-scanning study, American participants were shown dffrent adjectives. They were asked how well these adjectives represented themselves and how well these adjectives represented their mother. The study showed there was a clear difference in brain responses between thinking about the self and the mother.
However, in many other parts of the world, people describe themselves primarily as a part of different social relationships and strongly connected with others. This is more prevalent in Asia, Africa and Latin America. The brain-scanning study with Chinese participants showed ltle or no dfference between the self and the mother, suggesting that the self-presentation shared a large overlap with the presentation of the close relative.
Clearly, the way we define ourselves is linked to diferences in social relationships, motivation and upbringing. Culture has a massive ffcet on how we view ourselves and how we are perceived by others. The field, now known as“CrossCultural psychology", is increasingly being taught at universities across the world. With more research, we may well find that cultural differences pervade into even more areas where human behavior was previously thought of as universal But only by knowing about these efects will we ever be able to identify the core foundations of the human mind that we all share.
