When peop
28、le hoard a massive amount of objects, it takes over the inhabitable spaces of their home. As the collection grows, they are unable to do simple, quotidian activities such as cooking a meal or watching TV. Sometimes the hoarding is so severe that parts of their homes become inaccessible. But among th
29、e many problems that such behavior brings about, the most significant are the health risks. Once hallways and windows are blocked, hoarders are at the risk of dying in a fire, since they no longer have a clear path of evacuation (疏散). Things that are piled up high can fall on top of the homeowner, o
30、r a person trying to climb over a pile of objects can experience a fall. There is also the problem of sanitation (卫生). Areas where food cant be properly cleaned begin to attract insects, and bathrooms that are full of many possessions can no longer be washed. Unfortunately, the serious effect of the
31、 problem can become worse for two reasons. One is that since the behavior progress behind closed doors, people can accumulate collections of objects for years before friends or family members become aware of the problem. A second reason is that hoarders often dont recognize that they have a problem,
32、 and will continue to live in denial until they get professional help. When attempting to make a diagnosis, psychologists dont regard hoarding as a disorder in itself. Instead, its often seen as a symptom of obsessive-compulsive disorder (强迫症), depression, or anxiety. The mental health community has
33、 only recently begun an intensive study of hoarding, and more research is needed in order to understand its causes and find effective treatment. 28.

Hoarding is regarded as a disorder by psychologists.C. Symptoms of hoarding cant be easily noticed since
35、 it progresses quietly.D. The mental health community has found effective treatments for hoarding.30.

45、 Points are awarded for an original location and for the number of onlookers and participants involved. 36 Without a photo, youre just a person lying down. This is planking, described variously as a global participatory art project, a “meaningless internet craze”.It began 14 years ago with a pair of
46、 bored kids. Gary Clarkson, then 15, and his friend Christian Langdon, 12, would perform the plank in public places, amusing one another and puzzling onlookers. 37 The game was a pointless way for the boys to pass the time. As Clarkson puts it: “It was just a really stupid, random thing to do.”For i
47、ts first 10 years planking spread very slowly, from Clarkson and Langdon to their friends at school and, after a while, on to other kids from the neighborhood. 38 Soon, they had a few thousand followers. Photographs of plankers came in from all over the world: American plankers on top of their telev
48、isions, British plankers in trees, and Europeans on country roads and steep riverbanks.Then things got really interesting. A few days later, a mass gathering of plankers attracted more than 100 people. The planking in the photos posted to Facebook became riskier and stranger. One brave airport worke
49、r performed the plank in the engine fan of a jet plane. 39 Some people have linked the practice to the 1995 video for the Radiohead song, “Just”. In the video, a man lies down on a busy London road and a crowd of strangers gather to try to understand and help him. He refuses to move, or to tell them
50、 why hes lying there. He tells them but not us, the viewers and all we see is that now the entire crowd is lying down on the pavement as well. 40 “People generally think youre mad,” as creator Gary Clarkson puts it. “Thats sort of the point.”A. You must, of course, have somebody take a photo.B. Many
51、 people believe planking is a good way to pass the time.C. At that time, it was known simply as the Lying Down Game.D. We can read about planking all of the time on internet websites.E. Whether the video is the inspiration or not, it helps us understand the spirit of planking.F. Then, in 2007, when
52、the pair created a Facebook group for their game, the pace accelerated.G.
