18、ou know?” Bechtel said, (23)_(look) up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often (24)_(work) through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on (25)_ shoulder. She returns
19、 to work feeling energized. “Today, I just wanted some time to myself,” she said.Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar.

23、ugh of it? In todays modern world, most of us are 31 with so-called time-saving devices and technological advancements and work less both at the office and at home. But why do we still feel busier?A study by Derek Thompson on the “myth” of being busy suggests that while 32 brought us convenience, it
24、 also brought us new headaches. Consider the idea of FOMO (fear of missing out). Knowing exactly what were missing out makes us feel guilty or anxious about the 33 of our time and our ability to use it effectively.While being informed is important, it can lead to anxiety about keeping up with the ti
25、mes. If you find yourself unable to stop scrolling through Twitter, turn off the phone and take a mental break. Practice JOMO (joy of missing out), a(n) 34 on life thats a direct contradiction to FOMO. Get rid of feelings of guilt and “shoulds” and replace them with mindfulness and living in the mom
26、ent.Another thing technology has 35 us is the blurring (难以区分) between work and downtime.

Reading ComprehensionSection A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or p
30、hrase that best fits the context. The expression, “everybodys doing it,” is very much at the center of the concept of peer pressure. It is a social influence applied on an individual in order to get that person to act or believe in a(n) 41 way as a larger group. This influence can be negative or pos
31、itive, and can exist in both large and small groups. People are social creatures by nature, and so it is hardly 42 that some part of their self-respect comes from the approval of others.
