We need to vent（发泄）about the place we work sometimes. Whether it is the long hours you put in ,an unreasonable boss, or lack of recognition for your efforts-every workplace has enough fuel to lighten the frustration（挫折）.
1..And it is good to the productivity in the office too. Vanessa Pouthier, a researcher at the University of Melbourne in Australia, studied a team of nurses and health professionals at a hospital in the United States.2..Pouthier observed the joking and complaining that went on for 12 months and realized“it helps people to process stress and frustration,”Pouthier told ABC Radio Perth.
3.,there will always be a corner of the office or the lunch room, where a small or large collective of employees are venting to some degree.“Generally, people don’t think there is any value to it,”Pouthier says.4.;she had to look into other fields, such as linguistics, to better understand its functions.
Whether it’s politely debating the effectiveness of how an office runs, or complaining about the bosses, Pouthier found that the complaining session served as bonding function.5..
“It allows people to recognize how similar they are in the challenges they are facing every day and how they feel about them,”she says.
A. However, few people know how this happens
B. No matter what kind of environment you work in
C. It can even help staff to work through their negative feelings

E. But this common activity in every workplace was so under -researched
F. It was found that there’s actually benefits to these kinds of complaining session
G. Good news is, this workplace complaining is actually beneficial to your mental well-being.
You see your phone light up from the corner of your eye and quickly reach for it. What started as a simple notification（通知）check snowballs into an hour-long period as you look through rows of notifications and endless social media feeds.
This is by design. Tech companies such as Google and Facebook have spent years working to make consumer technology as addictive as possible. After all, time spent with their products could equal big profits for the company.
However, that’s starting to change. Apple takes action with the introduction of tools in its new operating system aimed at informing users to better manage their smartphone usage and parental controls that allow parents to better monitor and control their children’s phone time.
Google also offers a “Wind Down”feature to set at bedtime, which automatically puts the phone into“Do Not Disturb”.No notifications will show up on your phone, and losing all color on-screen is certainly a cause to put your phone away.
There are still no clear guidelines on what causes tech addiction, but it’s a growing concern likely on the minds of parents everywhere as they see their kids’ faces constantly glued inches away from a screen. And everywhere you go, you’re all but guaranteed to see people buried in their phones.
Apart from Apple and Google, Facebook deserves a fair amount of blame, as CEO Mark Zuckerberg acknowledged in a blog post earlier this year. The social network announced plans to roll out changes aimed at making interactions more meaningful.
“By making these changes, I expect the time people spend on Facebook will go down,”Zuckerberg said. “But I also expect the time you do spend on Facebook will be more valuable. And if we do the right thing, I believe that will be good for our community and our business over the long term too.”
1.What has been done to change phone addiction?
A.Making some color disappear on screen. B.Offering functions to reduce phone use.
C.Improving consumer technology. D.Stopping sending messages.
2.What does "the social network" underlined in the Paragraph 6 refer to?
A.Google. B.Apple.
C.A blog post. D.Facebook.
3.What does Zuckeberg mean in the last paragraph?
A.Facebook in expecting fewer people to use it.
B.It’s valuable for people to do the right thing on Facebook.
C.People should spend time on Facebook as little as possible.
D.Facebook and its consumers will have a win-win relationship.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Fighting against Screen Addiction
B.Making Tech Addiction by Design
C.Controlling Children's Phone Time
D.Letting Phone Interactions Meaningful
The BBC has made its second annual report known since its new charter was established and the broadcaster paints a rather bleak（暗淡的）picture for itself. It highlights the fact that the media landscape（局面）has changed quite rapidly in recent years and will most certainly continue to do so, and it says that the industry is “more and more dominated by a small number of US-based media giants with extraordinary creative and financial firepower.”The BBC added, “Their business models and huge budgets mean we are increasingly being squeezed out of an ever more competitive environment. British creativity and British content are now under real threat.”
However, the broadcaster is determined to do all it can to survive in the ever more digital TV world increasingly controlled by companies like Netflix and Amazon. In that regard, it laid out a few goals for the year that are aimed at keeping the BBC competitive. One focus will be its iPlayer platform. It notes that younger audiences are more frequently choosing Netflix over the BBC and it’s, therefore ,making some changes to iPlayer that will hopefully make it a destination itself rather than just a way to catch up on shows viewers have missed. The BBC has already started to introduce personalization into its iPlayer content and going forward, it will work to strengthen the user experience, boost（促进）personalization and add more live content.
But most importantly, the issue comes down to money. “The cost of sports broadcasting rights has skyrocketed while, overall, the cost of ideas and talent has risen fast.”Te broadcaster concludes that is has shrunk while the market has continued grow.“In this context, the BBC’s urgent challenge is to develop new ways to grow our income so that we can keep pace with the market around us, as well as successfully safeguard British content and Britain’s creative track record.”it said.
