Script Murder (剧本杀), also known as the mystery of murder, is gaining popularity among young people. A guest in the party secretly plays the role of the murderer without the knowledge of others while other guests, as players, need to find out the murderer through investigating (调查) and reasoning. In recent years, this game has gradually become a top choice for parties in China. 

There are two ways to play Script Murder, that is, online and offline. Most of the scripts provided by online apps are free; only a few high-quality scripts need to be paid. Players play role-playing games in a network "room" while offline stores usually set up scenes exactly the same as script settings. Players live in a "room", performing stories through language, expression, conversation, body movements and so on. This game often takes about 4 to 6 hours in total. 

In fact, murder-inspired board games, card games and party games have been around at least since the so-called golden age of British crime fiction in the 1920s and 1930s. The enduring popularity of these games presents a mystery of its own: What drives people to spend an evening investigating fake cases and hunting for "murderers"? 

One simple explanation might be curiosity (好奇心). When he's playing Script Murder in particular costumes, one feels like he's in that world. But that is not the full story. Instead, murder games follow a surprisingly complex set of psychological (心理的) rules, which can be educational and help people develop important thinking and acting skills. 

"People are considering the games as a way to simulate threatening plots (模拟威胁情节) and then play around with how they would react to it." Coltan Scrivner, a behavioral scientist, says, "After all, real-life violent (暴力的) crime is every person's worst nightmare."

There is a girl at school, and we don't really get along. She keeps spreading rumours(传播谣言) about me and people are turning against me. What should I do?                                            —Sam

Some people spread rumours as a way to scare others and get popularity. But spreading rumours as a way to turn people against someone is a form of bullying(霸凌). So what can you do if you find yourself the target(目标) of rumours and social bullying?

Turn to a trusted adult for support. Talk to someone you can trust, like a parent, a teacher, or a coach. Let that person know what you're going through. Keep him or her up to date on what's going on, even as things start to get better. A trusted adult can help you feel more supported and less lonely. What's more, adults can do something to put a stop to the rumours. 

Find your friends. Find a friend or two who will be willing to help you and who won't listen to rumours. If you want, share your feelings with those friends. Don't think too much about the situation, though. Spend time having fun with your friends and doing activities you enjoy. 

Speak up. Try to speak to the girl who's spreading rumours. Don't be angry. Avoid shouting. Just say what you want calmly and clearly. After you've said what you want, you can simply walk away. There's no need to wait for her to say anything back. Leave her to think about what you said. 

Before you try talking to the girl, though, talk with an adult about what to say. It can also help to have a friend stand with you when you talk to the girl. 

 阅读下列材料, 从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中, 选出最佳选项。

Last year,61 companies in the Uk took part in the world's largest test of a four- day work week. The results were so positive that 92% of the companies were planning to keep the new schedule.

In much of the world, a five- day work week, usually from Monday to Friday is common. But in some places, people are trying out the idea of paying workers the same amount for working just four days a week.

The idea isn't new, but businesses have been slow to try it. They may be worried that they would get less work for their money, or that it could cause other problems. But the results of last year's experiment suggested the move might be good for both businesses and workers.

Last June,61 UK companies agreed to try giving their workers a four- day work week. In return, they asked their workers to try to do as much in four days as they usually did in five days.

Many different kinds of businesses took part, including online stores, computer technology companies, advertising companies, and even a fish restaurant. Some companies were small, while others had around 1,000 workers.

The companies found different ways of giving workers one more day off. Most companies simply gave workers Fridays off. Others chose Mondays, or had different workers take different days off. The experiment ran for six months, and turned out to be good for most businesses.

The number of days when workers were out sick dropped by 65%. On average,57% fewer people quit their jobs during the four- day work week trial. What's more, the companies made more money- about 1.4% on average.

How did workers do more in less time? Some companies cut meetings, or made sure they were shorter. Others used technology to help workers get more work done quickly . Some companies created a " focus time" so workers could work on just one thing without being disturbed.

In general, workers said the four- day work week made them feel less tired. About 71% said they felt less " burnt out" with their new work hours, and 39% said they felt less stressed. Most of the workers were more satisfied with the time they spent working.
