The phrase describes staying in bed all day, just like “rtting” (腐烂) there, accrding t Gld, a prfessr at Washingtn University.

Want t knw what is cming sn t a cinema near yu? Prbably nt a 1. 5-hur-lng mvie, as in the ld days. On Octber 20th cmes Killers f the Flwer Mn. At nearly three and a half hurs, its length is nearly duble that f the average film last year. Even mvie fans struggle t cncentrate fr that lng and sme viewers even nd ff. Afterwards there is a mad dash fr the tilets. When des watching a film becme such a slg?
The Ecnmist analyzed ver 100, 000 feature films released internatinally since the 1930s, the start f Hllywd's glden age, using data frm IMDb, a mvie database.

参考答案
1．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“This is als the same size as San Francisc”可知，二者共同之处是面积大小一样。
2．答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段"As a subtrpical island", "15-28℃ all year rund"以及"St Helena is free frm extreme weather events"可知，此地气候是亚热带气候，较温和。
3．答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段"Until 2017, St Helena did nt have an airprt and was nly accessible by sea. "可知，2017年以前都只能通过坐船到达该岛。
4．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段可知，在喂“猫”的时候她被咬伤了手。
5．答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“ the interest f her brther”可知她刚开始的时候 撒谎，是考虑到哥哥的利益，也就是不想给她哥哥找麻烦。
6．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句可知这个组织希望最后将短尾猫放归至安全的 地方，即放归野外。
7．答案：D
解析：推理判断题。最后一段主要是告诉人们野生动物应该生存在野外不被打扰，并告诉人 们遇到了野生动物或宠物该如何处理，所以最后一段的目的是提供建议。
8．答案：C
解析：细节理解题。从第一段最后一句可知，只要你理解你自己为什么“腐烂在床上”(bed rtting)而且也还是会做一些其他事情，就没什么问题。所以C项“只要还在可控范围内， 就是可以接受的”是正确的。
9．答案：A
解析：推理判断题。第二段主要讲“躺在床上超过一天就是让人担忧的，而且可能指向不同的精神健康方面的问题。想在床上瘫一整天，尤其是情况特别严重的时候，很可能不仅是想 补觉或者需要放空一天，而是逃避一些情感、压力或者醒着时的痛苦。这样的行为就与抑郁 和焦虑的症状相关了。”所以，本段主要讲“腐烂在床上”对心理健康的影响。
10．答案：C
解析：推理判断题。从倒数第二句可知，“作为普遍的准则，如果晚上在床上躺30分钟还没 睡着，就应该起床。”所以，“腐烂在床上”这个行为与好的睡眠习惯是相违背的。

14．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。从第三段和第四段的段首句可知，电影变长的驱动力一方面是因为“特许经营权”，让电影公司要跟流媒体平台竞争，吸引观众眼球，另一方面是“导演们不断增 长的影响力”。
15．答案：B
解析：主旨大意题。本文主要讲了电影时长在增加的现象。
16．答案：AGBCF
解析：①从后文中Yu are nt t sure abut the directin可知“你”属于不太知道如何选择的一类人，所以属于前文中提到的“thers”那一部分人，即后者。
