He's an old cobbler(修鞋匠) with a shop in the Marais, a historic area in Paris. When I took him my

shoes, he at first told me: right away.

But just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather,I knew he was skilled craftsman

without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys. They work carelessly, and when they have finished

sewing back a sandal strap(鞋带) you might as well just throw away the pair.

My man saw I wouldn't give in,and he smiled.He looked at my shoes,had me write my name on shoe with a piece

of chalk and said,

I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boots off a shelf.

“See what I can do?” he said with pride. “Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work.”

He was something out of an ancient legend. This old craftsman with his way of speaking familiarly, his very

strange, dusty felt hat, his funny accent from who-knows-where and, above all, his pride in his

craft. These are times when you can do things any old way as long as it on work as a path to

Addiction to watching seven episodes of Real Housewives or“wasting” the afternoon watching

back-to-back classic baseball games isn't going to melt our brains. In fact, studies suggest that“playing a video game

or watching a movie or television show can restore some psychological resources,” says Robin Nabi, PhD, a professor

of communication at the University of Californa, Santa Barbara, who

specializes in the effects of media on emotions.

Though the benefits have yet to be studied long-term and our problems don't magically disappear once we turn

off the tube, rest can reduce stress levels. Giving ourselves permission to enjoy some

downtime is also a key part of self-sympathy, which helps prevent anxiety and depression.

“We don't focus as much on relaxation and playing and enjoyment and fun, and these are such

important aspects of being a human being,” says Nabi. “And feeling guilty about activities we enjoy, or criticizing

them, can take away the benefits they offer us.”

Therefore, it's time to embrace our need for pleasure. One big reason to do so is that talking about our common

interests and pursuits, whatever they may be, is a way to connect with others. The most

important value of a guilty pleasure might just be the bond it can create between people who share it. You' ll never

find those connections if you don't speak up. So stop apologizing. You might just find that

it reduces any remaining guilt and makes it easier to discover more things you enjoy.

“Lots of the time, guilty pleasures get talked about in terms of genre (类型),” says Nabi. But it can help to think

about what you like specifically, she points out. “You probably don't like all boy bands, so what is it about this

particular group and their music? Whatever it is, find your little niche and go for

that. And don't be ashamed of what that is, because clearly it's doing something for you.”

28. How does the author introduce the topic of the passage?

A. By listing examples. B. By giving definitions.

C. By making a contrast. D. By providing background information.

29. What does Nabi think of people's guilty feeling about pleasure?

A. It is normal. B. It is beneficial.

C. It is confusing. D. It is unnecessary

'30 What does the underlined word“niche” in the last paragraph refer to?

A. A job someone is responsible for. B. An activity suitable for someone.

C. A pleasure bringing someone guilt. D. A small case someone cares little about.

31. Which of following opinions would the author agree with?

A. Don't be addicted to entertainment. B. Develop new hobbies to reduce pressure.

C. View our demand for pleasure positively. D. Stay away from guilty pleasures.

Traditional public schools assign a child to a given school based on his family's place of residence( 住所 ). As

Coleman pointed out, residential assignment promotes division between schools by family background. It creates

motivation for families to move to the“good” school districts. Under this system, schoolcannot serve as the equal-

opportunity engines of our society.

The most promısıng social policy for fighting the effects of family background, then, could well be

the expansion of programs— small schools of choice. These programs allow families to choose schools without regard

to their neighborhood of residence. An analysis of more than 100 schools of choice in

New York City between 2019 and 2020 might tell us something. It witnessed 9.5 percent increase in the graduation

rate of a group of educationally and economically disadvantaged students, at no extra cost to the city.

Small schools of choice might also build the social relationship that Coleman considered crucial for student

success. First, small schools are well positioned to build a strong school culture. Helping

students to cultivate networks of social relationships better equips them to handle life's challenges.

While schools may not be able to compensate fully for the negative effects of an unstable family, a

strong school culture can transform the“social ecology” of a disadvantaged child.

Small schools of choice also encourage a voluntary community that comes together over strong

ties and shared values. Typically, schools of choice feature a clearly defined mission and set of core
