【原文】Clubhouse is the latest app that is taking the world by storm. It consists
of rooms where people talk about set topics over audio only. You start off as a
listener, so you aren’t able to speak right away. But sometimes the best way to
learn is to slow down and just listen. Then you can quietly consider what people
say about their work, lives and experiences. You just might discover something new.
These days people have more online friends than ever yet are still lonely.
Clubhouse stands out from other apps in the way it helps users engage with others.
They can laugh over common interests or have deep discussions. They can feel heard
and appreciated. Without video, they can even drop some of their insecurities and
say what they’re feeling.
Yet with this safe space for expression, problems can occur, too. In a place
where you can say anything, some don’t use their freedom rightly. Hateful speech
and false statements have become a problem as Clubhouse's membership has grown.
Moving forward, it is important for Clubhouse to find a way to track discussions
and protect users.
This app will likely continue to have a great impact. Only time will tell whether
that impact is helpful or harmful.
(Now listen again please.)
11. Which of the following is allowed after the users join Clubhouse?
12. Why is Clubhouse popular with its users?
13. What improvement does Clubhouse need to make according to the speaker?

【原文】One of the best skills you can learn in life is how to make good decisions.
Why? Because bad decisions lead to disappointment and pain. Good decisions, on the
other hand, make you feel happy and successful.
So what factors go into making a good decision? There are three to consider.
First, you need to realize that every action has a consequence. You shouldn’t make
a big decision quickly. Second, talk to others, especially those who are older and
wiser than you. They can give you helpful advice. And finally, check your conscience.
Be sure that you can feel proud of the decision you are going to make.
When it comes to decisions, many people hesitate to make them. They may be scared
of making a mistake. They may be afraid of what other people will think of their
choice. If you need help making a decision, use the following four steps.
First, you need to define the problem you are facing. The next step is to think
carefully about the decision and brainstorm your choices. Third, you have to
determine what is right for you. And finally, act on your decision as soon as
possible.
(Now listen again please.)
Questions:
14. What does the speaker say about factors to consider when making a good decision?
15. What does the speaker advise you to do when you need help making a decision?
16. What’s the speaker mainly talking about?
