上次发了疫情文学（1）很多朋友不禁捧腹，于是今天出了疫情文学（2）以飨读者：D


1.	于千万人之中遇到你所要遇见的人，于千万年之中，时间无涯的荒野里，没有早一步，没有晚一步。刚好赶上了，那也没有别的话好说，唯有轻轻的问一句：“哦，你也在这里排队做核酸吗？”
2.	“生活总是这么痛苦吗？还是只有疫情的时候才这样？”“总是这样”
3.	我要看的不只是绿码，还有您的48小时核酸检测报告，纳斯塔霞 菲利波夫纳“公爵说。”你是说我？我的48小时核酸检测报告？“”是的，您“，
4.	这是最好的时代，也是最坏的时代；这是一个新冠的年代，这是一个核酸的年代；这是一个封城的时期，这是一个带口罩的时期。
5.	假如你有幸生活在21世纪20年代，那么你此后一生中不论去到哪里，口罩、健康码，核酸检测都与你同在，因为疫情是一席流动的盛宴。

For the second year in a row, Taylor Swift has been named Spotify's most-played artist.

The streaming service has released its annual overview of individual listening trends as well as trends from around the world — called Spotify Wrapped.

Users can now see their top artists, songs, genres, albums and podcasts, as well as uncover which artists had the biggest year on the platform.

Swift was 2024's most-streamed artist globally, ranking in more than 26.6 billion streams. She was followed by The Weeknd, Bad Bunny, Drake and Billie Eilish.

Swift also earned the title of most-streamed album in 2024, with The Tortured Poets Department, while Sabrina Carpenter had the most-streamed song both in the US and globally this year, with her summer hit "Espresso." It was streamed more than 1.6 billion times.

For users who want to look back at their listening habits over the year, there were some new features to explore on Spotify Wrapped.

These include a new data story called "Your Music Evolution," which shows three distinct musical phases for each user, and a personalized playlist based on them.

People like to share their Spotify Wrapped data on social media, although this year some complained that the roundup was missing certain features they'd previously enjoyed.

Streaming now accounts for most of the money generated by the music industry — 84% in the United States, according to the Recording Industry Association of America, and 67.3% around the world, according to a 2024 report by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, which tracks global sales.

Spotify is the largest platform of all with a reported 626 million users and 246 million subscribers.

       猫妈妈带着小猫在河边钓鱼。一会儿，一只蜻蜓飞过来，小猫就去捉蜻蜓。一会儿，一只蝴蝶飞过来，小猫又去捉蝴蝶，结果什么都没有捉到，也没有钓到鱼。这时，猫妈妈已经钓到好几条大鱼了。小猫生气地说:“我怎么钓不到鱼呢?“ 妈妈说：“你一会儿捉蜻蜓，一会儿捉蝴蝶，三心二意，怎么能钓到鱼呢?”
       小猫听了妈妈的话，就专心地钓鱼了。不一会儿，小猫也钓到了一条大鱼，她和妈妈都笑了。
