【題目】The Dangers of Binge-Watching

The common use of Tik Tok and many other streaming services has created a new problem in today's society: binge-watching. This allows teens to spend huge amounts of time watching shows without a break. Some teens even spend the entire weekend glued to the screens. 【1】 When it becomes a regular habit, however, binge-watching can really create some problems.

If teens regularly head for their devices for binge-watching , they are more likely to experience loneliness and depression. It makes sense. Lonely or depressed teens will turn to mindless bing-watching to get their attention off those negative feelings. However, it doesn't really fix anything. It is a temporary band-aid that covers the real problem. 【2】

The shows teens watch tend to directly affect their minds. Therefore, negative shows, or those with negative portrayals(描繪)of the world around them, can increase feelings of negativity and depression.【3】Too many shows are filled with model-thin individuals who are still complaining that they don't look good in their clothes. This can lead a young girl to worry about her physical appearance.

Some teens don't have the self-control to their binge-watching habits on their own. 【4】 Parents need to be aware of how much time their teens are spending on their devices. Setting limits on screen-time can be easy to accomplish with a good parental control software.

Having regular conversations with your teens about this behavior is critical. Encourage them to tell you why they are binge-watching, what they're watching, and how they're feeling to help them develop healthier viewing habits. 【5】 By doing so parents have set a clear line that displays when binge-watching has to stop.

A.Worse still, it can merely cause the sense of loneliness to build up.

B.Sure, the occasional binge-watching doesn't sound too bad.

C.For this reason, what parents can do with the situation is critical.

D.They spend more time with screens than with their peers or parents.

E.Parents can also help schedule other activities to fill up the day.

F.Even body image can be linked to the shows that teens watch.

G.Instead, they can simply sit there, staring at the screen and no more effort is needed.

本文是說明文。介紹了青少年刷劇現(xiàn)象的幾種危害及父母怎樣幫助孩子正確處理刷劇問題。

【1】上句介紹了青少年刷劇現(xiàn)象，他們不間斷地花大量時間看電視節(jié)目。一些青少年甚至整個周末都粘在屏幕上。下句：然而，當它成為一種常規(guī)習慣時，刷劇確實會產(chǎn)生一些問題。B項：當然，偶爾的刷劇也不是太糟糕。與上句承接，與下句又形成轉折，承上啟下，故選B。

【2】根據(jù)本段中的they are more likely to experience loneliness and depression.和Lonely or depressed teens will turn to mindless bing-watching to get their attention off those negative feelings.可知刷劇是孤獨和抑郁的表現(xiàn)，上句說明刷劇不能真正解決問題，A項：更糟糕的是，它只會讓你產(chǎn)生孤獨感。與上句遞進，loneliness與本段中的loneliness和Lonely呼應，故選A。

【3】下句提到，太多的時裝秀充斥著身材苗條卻仍然抱怨穿衣服不好看的模特，這可能會導致年輕女孩擔心自己的外表。這說明了電視節(jié)目對青少年身體形象的影響，F項：甚至體型也可以和青少年觀看的節(jié)目聯(lián)系起來。表達了此意，故選F。

【4】上句介紹青少年對看電視沒有自制力，根據(jù)下文Parents need to be aware of……可知介紹的是父母應該如何幫助孩子，C項中的For this reason指的是上文的青少年沒有自制力，what parents can do with the situation is critical.提到了父母的重要作用。C項：出于這個原因，父母在這種情況下能做什么至關重要。承上啟下，故選C。

【5】本段主要介紹定期與孩子談論這種行為是至關重要的，緊接著介紹父母和孩子談話的內容，E項：家長也可以幫助安排其他活動來充實每一天。與上句做法并列，是下句By doing so的具體表現(xiàn)，故選E。

七選五的解題技巧之一是根據(jù)上下文詞匯來鎖定線索。即：要關注空白前后的名詞和動詞，然后在選項中查找它們的近義詞、反義詞、同義詞、同類詞等。小題2根據(jù)本段中的they are more likely to experience loneliness and depression.和Lonely or depressed teens will turn to mindless bing-watching to get their attention off those negative feelings.可知刷劇是孤獨和抑郁的表現(xiàn)， A項中的loneliness與本段中的loneliness和Lonely呼應。小題4中根據(jù)下文Parents need to be aware of……可知介紹的是父母應該如何幫助孩子，C項中的For this reason指的是上文的青少年沒有自制力，what parents can do with the situation is critical.提到了父母的重要作用。小題5中E項是下句By doing so的具體表現(xiàn)。
