【答案】11．Who/that    12．helping    13．has won/won
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了一位70岁的农村妇女，小学都没毕业，但能说11门外语的徐奶奶。
11．考查限制性定语从句。句意：徐奶奶是一位70岁的农村妇女，小学都没毕业，但她能说11门外语的能力让很多人感到惊讶。分析句子可知，空处引导一个限制性定语从句，修饰先行词woman，指人，并在从句中充当主语，所以应填关系代词who/that。故填who/ that。
12．考查动名词。句意：她通过不断地询问、经常与外国游客交谈、帮助外国游客来学习外语。空处作介词by的宾语，应填其动名词形式helping，表示“帮助”，与前面的asking和talking并列。故填helping。
13．考查时态。句意：她赢得了来自世界各地朋友的认可，使她的生活变得更好。分析句子可知，空处谓语动词与后面的谓语动词made并列，所以可填动词过去式won，同时根据句意可知，空处也可表示过去的动作或状态持续到现在，或对现在造成的影响，并可能持续发生下去，所以此处也可填现在完成式has won，谓语动词与主语She保持主谓一致，用单数。故填has won /won。
B
阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。

The more we express gratitude, the more positive we feel.

【答案】14．have been    15．to escape     16．more satisfied
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。研究发现：感恩不仅仅是给人道一声“谢谢”，感恩是对某人或某事的更深层次的欣赏，同时也对我们的健康有好处，尤其是以写感谢信来表达感恩的这个方式，能使我们逃离负面情绪的影响。
14．考查时态。句意：在过去的三十年里，有许多研究表明，给别人写一封感谢信给我们提供了一个逃离负面情绪的机会。根据时间状语Over the past thirty years，句子谓语用现在完成时态，此处为there be结构，主语为many studies，为复数，故助动词用have。故填have been。
15．考查非谓语动词。句意：在过去的三十年里，有许多研究表明，给别人写一封感谢信给我们提供了一个逃离负面情绪的机会。此处考查名词opportunity，后接动词不定式作后置定语，故填to escape。
16．考查形容词比较等级。句意：即使我们不与任何人分享我们写的内容，完成练习的行为本身就会让我们更快乐、对生活更满意。设空处与形容词happier并列，也用比较等级，作us的宾补，故填more satisfied。
C
阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。

【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了自律对每个人来说都是必要的。它展示了一个人的性格，并帮助他与他周围的人建立关系。它还有助于充分利用可用的时间。自律是有益的。日常生活中的小改变都有助于实现自律。
17．考查代词。句意：自律对每个人来说都是必要的，无论他的年龄、阶级或职业。修饰名词age，class or profession用形容词性物主代词作定语，故填his。
18．考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：这导致提高生产力和增长效率。分析句子可知，result in作谓语，文章讲述事实用一般现在时，主语this是单数，谓语动词用单数，故填results。
19．考查介词。句意：自律的人总是受到社会的尊重。in society“在社会上”，是固定短语，根据句意，故填in。
20．考查主语从句。句意：据证明，日常生活中的小改变，比如每天在同一时间睡觉和起床，吃健康的食物，锻炼和设定目标，都有助于实现自律。分析句子可知，空处引导主语从句，it是形式主语，从句句意完整，成分齐全，用连接词that引导主语从句，故填that。

My husband and I always wanted to go to the Caribbean but didn’t know much about the islands or how we were going to afford it. By chance, a friend of ours in Australia mentioned “pet sitting” and that it is something you can do all over the world.
We quickly created an account on a pet sitting website and began searching for options. There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world, but we tried our luck, sent a request, and to our surprise landed a three-month job in Grenada, so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits.
Inspired by a Canadian couple, we decided to start our own travel blog. We began by writing about The Virgin Islands, highlighting the beautiful beaches. However, for every photo album of a beautiful beach, there were 10 photos of trash (垃圾). It was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue, especially on such primitive and remote beaches. So, we began to share photos of the trash we saw and how much we could pick up on our daily dog walks.
The more we looked into plastic pollution, the more we realized the severity of the global plastic pollution. From that point, we used our platform to create awareness and highlight ways to say no to plastic and travel plastic-free. We changed our daily routines, our way of living, and even our diets to accommodate more organic foods and little to no plastic packaging.
It’s been over three years now and we continue to do what we can. This journey has led us to some amazing places, working with great brands and even organizing a country-wide beach clean-up campaign in Grenada.
Our aim now is to keep on going. We love connecting with like-minded people. It’s been amazing few years that was sparked by a conversation about pet sitting. Who would have guessed?
24．Why did the author do pet sitting?
A．To raise fund. B．To protect the environment.
C．To cover travel expenses. D．To shoot beautiful beaches.
25．What does the author intend to convey through her story?
A．Pet sitting is a new type of occupation.
B．The Caribbean is an ideal travel destination.
C．Travel blog is a superb way to gain popularity.
D．Action should be taken to fight plastic pollution.
26．How did the author find her experience in the Caribbean?
A．Significant. B．Challenging.
C．Adventurous. D．Dreadful.
27．Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Changing Lifestyles by Pet Sitting
B．Unexpected Gains from Pet Sitting Travel
C．Dealing with Global Environment Pollution
D．The Availability of Pet Sitting in the Caribbean

【答案】24．C    25．D    26．A    27．B
【导语】本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者因为一次宠物看护工作，去了一个很美丽的小岛，但是确被塑料所污染，所以作者把看到的垃圾分享到微博上，希望唤起人们的环保意识，之后作者一直致力于环境保护工作。
24．细节理解题。根据第一段“My husband and I always wanted to go to the Caribbean but didn’t know much about the islands or how we were going to afford it. By chance, a friend of ours in Australia mentioned “pet sitting” and that it is something you can do all over the world.(我和我丈夫一直想去加勒比，但对这些岛屿不太了解，也不知道我们将如何负担得起。一次偶然的机会，我们在澳大利亚的一位朋友提到了“照顾宠物”，这是一个你在全世界都可以做的事)”可知，作者做“照顾宠物”的工作是为了支付自己和丈夫去加勒比的费用。故选C。
25．推理判断题。根据第三段的“However, for every photo album of a beautiful beach, there were 10 photos of trash (垃圾). It was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue, especially on such primitive and remote beaches. So, we began to share photos of the trash we saw and how much we could pick up on our daily dog walks.(然而，每一张美丽海滩的相册里，都有10张垃圾照片(垃圾). 很难忽视塑料污染问题，尤其是在这样原始和偏远的海滩上。于是，我们开始分享我们看到的垃圾照片，以及我们每天遛狗时能捡到多少垃圾)”和第四段的“The more we looked into plastic pollution, the more we realized the severity of the global plastic pollution.(我们越是关注塑料污染，就越是意识到全球塑料污染的严重性)”推知，作者想通过自己的故事告诉读者必须采取措施应对垃圾污染。故选D。
26．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“It’s been over three years now and we continue to do what we can. This journey has led us to some amazing places, working with great brands and even organizing a country-wide beach clean-up campaign in Grenada.(现在已经三年多了，我们继续尽我们所能。这段旅程让我们来到了一些令人惊叹的地方，与伟大的品牌合作，甚至在格林纳达组织了全国范围的海滩清理运动)”可知，作者的那次旅行不仅让她意识到了塑料垃圾污染的重要性，还通过自己的行动影响了很多人。由此推知，她认为自己的加勒比的经历是非常重要的。故选A。
27．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了作者因为一次宠物看护工作，去了一个很美丽的小岛，但是确被塑料所污染，所以作者把看到的垃圾分享到微博上，希望唤起人们的环保意识，之后作者一直致力于环境保护工作。结合最后一段“Our aim now is to keep on going. We love connecting with like-minded people. It’s been amazing few years that was sparked by a conversation about pet sitting. Who would have guessed?(我们现在的目标是继续前进。我们喜欢与志同道合的人建立联系。一场关于宠物看护的对话引发了这几年的奇妙经历。谁会猜的到呢？)”可知 ，B项“照顾宠物旅行的意外收获”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选B。

With 48 impressionism works exhibited in his solo show in Yangon recently, Bhone Myat San, a 13-year-old boy, has stepped into a professional career in Myanmar.
More than 30 paintings, or about 70 percent of the works on display at the solo show at the Artist Gallery Cafe in Yangon, were collected from a show held in July at the gallery on the occasion of his 13th birthday.
When his mother was transferred to Dawei in 2020, he accompanied her and later joined a portrait painting class taught by senior artists at the campus of Dawei University. Bhone Myat San says he has been studying painting through online courses while staying at home during the pandemic. He also joined a five-month online class about oil painting conducted by an artist in Myanmar last year.
“I envy impressionists like Monet,” says Bhone Myat San, a seventh grader, while putting finishing touches on an oil painting titled Bagan’s Tharabar Gate. When his works were checked for exhibition, Khey Mar Shin, the owner of the Artist Gallery Cafe who’s an artist herself, noticed that he is talented. “He is the youngest artist to have hosted a solo show in my gallery. The event was successful,” the 42-year-old artist says, adding that she also saw that the 13-year-old boy’s passion for arts was higher than his peers and even stronger than some senior artists. Ma Pale, 38, says she brought her two children to the art show so that her children can get inspiration from him. Aung Hein Tun, 25, an art enthusiast who visited the event, says the young artist’s paintings are lively, and his painting skill as a 13-year-old is admirable. “I had no intention to collect paintings, but I bought one after enjoying his arts,” Aung Hein Tun says. Bhone Myat San says the money he got from the sales had been donated to the COVID- 19 infected people who need supplemental oxygen. “Consistency (一致性) is the key to success,” the young artist says.
28．Why did Bhone Myat San move to Dawei?
A．To celebrate his 13th birthday.
B．To keep his mother company.
C．To visit artistic works by Monet.
D．To achieve his dream of painting.
29．What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?
A．Bhone Myat San takes great pride in his paintings.
B．Many artists get inspiration from Bhone Myat San.
C．Bhone Myat San has got much praise for his paintings.
D．Some senior artists set a good example for Bhone Myat San.
30．Which of the following words can best describe Bhone Myat San?
A．Proud and sensitive. B．Cautious and modest.
C．Smart and adventurous. D．Gifted and caring.

【答案】28．B    29．C    30．D
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。讲述了13岁的Bhone Myat San展出了48件印象派作品，展示出了他的绘画天赋，受到了很多赞扬。
28．细节理解题。根据第三段的“When his mother was transferred to Dawei in 2020, he accompanied her and later joined a portrait painting class taught by senior artists at the campus of Dawei University.(2020年，他的母亲被调到Dawei，他陪着母亲，后来参加了Dawei大学校园里由资深艺术家教授的肖像画班。)”可知，Bhone Myat San搬到Dawei是为了陪伴他的母亲。故选B。
29．推理判断题。根据第四段的“Ma Pale, 38, says she brought her two children to the art show so that her children can get inspiration from him.(38岁的Ma Pale说，她带着两个孩子来参加艺术展，这样她的孩子就能从他身上得到灵感)”和“Aung Hein Tun, 25, an art enthusiast who visited the event, says the young artist’s paintings are lively, and his painting skill as a 13-year-old is admirable. “I had no intention to collect paintings, but I bought one after enjoying his arts,” Aung Hein Tun says.(25岁的艺术爱好者Aung Hein Tun参观了这次活动，他说这位年轻艺术家的画很生动，他13岁时的绘画技巧令人钦佩。Aung Hein Tun说：“我无意收藏画作，但在欣赏了他的艺术之后，我买了一幅。”)”可知，Bhone Myat San受到了很多的赞扬。故选C。
30．推理判断题。根据第四段的“When his works were checked for exhibition, Khey Mar Shin, the owner of the Artist Gallery Cafe who’s an artist herself, noticed that he is talented.(当他的作品被检查展览时，艺术家画廊咖啡馆的老板Khey Mar Shin，自己也是艺术家，注意到他很有才华。)”和最后一段的“Bhone Myat San says the money he got from the sales had been donated to the COVID- 19 infected people who need supplemental oxygen.(Bhone Myat San表示，他从销售中获得的钱已经捐赠给了需要补充氧气的COVID-19感染者)可知，Bhone是一个有天赋且充满爱心的人。故选D。

Rapid deforestation (毁林) of the Amazon rainforest could influence the temperature and precipitation (降水，降水量) over the Tibetan plateau 15, 000 kilometers away.
Saini Yang at Beijing Normal University in China and her colleagues analyzed global climatological data from 1979 to 2019 to identify relations in temperature and precipitation between the Amazon rainforest and other areas. Such links are called “teleconnection1s”. They focused on the Amazon rainforest in particular because of its significance as a major carbon sink and as a climatic “tipping point” (爆发点) that could see forest turn to savannah (稀树草原) beyond a certain threshold (阈，界) of warming and human-driven deforestation.
The researchers found that since 1979, warm temperatures in the Amazon rainforest were related to warm temperatures over the Tibetan plateau and the West Antarctic ice sheet; more precipitation in the Amazon rainforest was associated with less precipitation in those regions. By analyzing changing temperatures in the regions between the Amazon rainforest and those distant areas, they were also able to trace the path through which energy or materials such as black carbon released in forest fires might spread through the atmosphere. Their analysis showed the route remained consistent under different future warming scenarios.
The collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet is a known tipping point. Melting snow on the Tibetan plateau is not, but the region is warming more rapidly than much of the rest of the globe, and changes to snow and ice there could have consequences for ecosystems and the billions of people that rely on its snowmelt for water, says Yang.
Victor Brovkin at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Germany says the teleconnections are an interesting find, but is skeptical that variability in the Amazon rainforest causes the changes elsewhere. He says the Amazon rainforest is too small an area to overcome the influence of the tropical oceans and the researchers don’t present a physical mechanism to explain any influence.
If the Amazon rainforest does have an influence on these regions, however, it could mean there is à higher risk that the Amazon rainforest tipping point might set others off, says Jonathan Donges-at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany. “It adds an additional potential domino (多米诺骨牌) that can fall. ”
31．Why was the Amazon rainforest the focus for Saini Yang’s research?
A．Because it played a role as a main carbon sink.
B．Because it was the most important carbon sink.
C．Because it was very likely to turn to savannah.
D．Because it was at a high risk of becoming a climatic “tipping point”.
32．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A．The benefits of the research.

【答案】31．A    32．B    33．C    34．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了中国北京师范大学杨赛霓教授及其同事进行的一项研究，该研究通过对1979年到2019年间的全球气象数据进行分析，目的在于确认亚马孙雨林地区和其他地区是否在气温和降雨方面存在相互影响的关系，但也有其他研究人员提出不同的观点。
31．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They focused on the Amazon rainforest in particular because of its significance as a major carbon sink and as a climatic “tipping point” (爆发点) that could see forest turn to savannah (稀树草原) beyond a certain threshold (阈，界) of warming and human-driven deforestation. (他们特别关注亚马逊雨林，因为它是一个重要的碳汇，也是一个气候“爆发点”，超过一定的变暖和人为砍伐森林的阈值，森林就会变成大草原。)”可知，因为亚马逊雨扮演了主要碳汇的角色，所以杨赛霓教授的研究的焦点是亚马逊雨林，故选A。
32．主旨大意题。根据第三段“The researchers found that since 1979, warm temperatures in the Amazon rainforest were related to warm temperatures over the Tibetan plateau and the West Antarctic ice sheet; more precipitation in the Amazon rainforest was associated with less precipitation in those regions. By analyzing changing temperatures in the regions between the Amazon rainforest and those distant areas, they were also able to trace the path through which energy or materials such as black carbon released in forest fires might spread through the atmosphere. Their analysis showed the route remained consistent under different future warming scenarios.(研究人员发现，自1979年以来，亚马逊雨林的温暖温度与青藏高原和南极西部冰盖的温暖温度有关；亚马逊雨林降水越多，这些地区降水越少。通过分析亚马逊雨林和这些遥远地区之间的温度变化，他们还能够追踪森林火灾释放的能量或物质(如黑碳)可能通过大气传播的路径。他们的分析表明，在不同的未来变暖情景下，这一路线保持一致。)”可知，第三段主要谈论了研究结果。故选B。
33．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The researchers found that since 1979, warm temperatures in the Amazon rainforest were related to warm temperatures over the Tibetan plateau and the West Antarctic ice sheet; more precipitation in the Amazon rainforest was associated with less precipitation in those regions. (研究人员发现，自1979年以来，亚马逊雨林的温暖温度与青藏高原和南极西部冰盖的温暖温度有关；亚马逊雨林降水越多，这些地区降水越少。)” 可知，Saini Yang会同意亚马逊雨林降雨越多，青藏高原的降雨量就越少的观点，故选C。
34．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Victor Brovkin at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Germany says the teleconnections are an interesting find, but is skeptical that variability in the Amazon rainforest causes the changes elsewhere. (德国马克斯·普朗克气象研究所的维克多·布罗夫金说，这种远程关联是一个有趣的发现，但他怀疑亚马逊雨林的变化会导致其他地方的变化。)”和根据最后一段“If the Amazon rainforest does have an influence on these regions, however, it could mean there is à higher risk that the Amazon rainforest tipping point might set others off, says Jonathan Donges-at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany. “It adds an additional potential domino (多米诺骨牌) that can fall. ” (然而，德国波茨坦气候影响研究所的乔纳森·东斯说，如果亚马逊雨林确实对这些地区有影响，这可能意味着亚马逊雨林的临界点可能引发其他地区爆发的风险更高。“这又增加了一张可能倒下的多米诺骨牌。”)”可知，亚马孙雨林发生质的颠覆性变化有一个前提条件，那就是它确实对这些地区有影响，而对于这一点，科学家仍然有争议。故选C。

第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分）
第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分）
阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
Engaging in meaningful conversations with others strengthens social bonds and boosts well—being far more than small talk does. Yet many people fear or even actively avoid intimate (亲密的) conversations, especially with those they don’t know well. Why are we so unwilling to engage in an activity that could benefit us so acutely? According to new research, it may be due to miscalculated expectations, and changing them could foster deeper connections.
In a series of studies published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, participants either engaged in “shallow” conversations (speaking, for example, about their sleep schedule or how often they get haircuts) or “deep” discussions (covering embarrassing moments or what they’re grateful for). Before chatting, they predicted how awkward and uncomfortable the conversation would be, how close they would feel to their conversation partner afterward, and how much they would enjoy the interaction. Participants who consistently overestimated the awkwardness of the conversations also greatly underestimated how much they’d enjoy the more intimate conversations, as well as how close they’d feel to their partner.
The noticeable difference between participants’ expectations and their actual experience seemed rooted in the assumption that conversation partners wouldn’t care about the details of their lives. “We underestimate, essentially, how social others are,” explains study author Nicholas Epley, a psychologist at the University of Chicago.
Such an assumption could be a barrier to forming deeper connections with others, Epley believes. Yet participants appeared able to course-correct. When they were told ahead of time that it’s common to underestimate how much strangers care about each other, they voluntarily steered the talks into deeper directions, potentially reaping the benefits of doing so.
A single reminder likely isn’t enough to permanently change miscalculated assumptions, Epley warns. But making the effort to engage in just a few positive interactions could help someone mentally reset. “After having a meaningful conversation, people usually want to have another one,” he says. “But you can learn only from experiences that you have,” he adds. “If you think it will be unpleasant to talk to someone and therefore never try, you’ll never find out that you were wrong.”
40．Why are people unwilling to get involved in intimate conversations?
________________________________________________
41．What could stop people forming deeper connections with others?
________________________________________________
42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
ØA single reminder can permanently change our assumptions, but we still need to engage in positive interactions to help us mentally reset.
________________________________________________
43．Do you prefer to have a “shallow” conversation or a “deep” discussion with strangers? And give your reasons. (In about 40 words)
________________________________________________

【答案】40．It may be due to miscalculated expectations./ Because of miscalculated expectations. / Because people have miscalculated expectations.    41．It is the assumptions that conversation partners wouldn’t care about the details of their lives.    42．A single reminder can permanently change our assumptions, but we still need to engage in positive interactions to help us mentally reset.
According to the passage, a single reminder isn’t enough to permanently change miscalculated assumptions, but we still need to engage in positive interactions to help us mentally reset.    43．I prefer to have a shallow conversation because there is social etiquette that we need to observe in order not to make others feel offended. Besides, people differ in personalities so it is polite and considerate to respect their boundaries and avoid information they might view as privacy. (48 words)

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了生活中人们更易于“浅谈”而不是“深入交谈”的原因。
40．考查细节理解。根据第一段最后一句“According to new research, it may be due to miscalculated expectations, and changing them could foster deeper connections.”（根据新的研究，这可能是由于错误的预期，改变他们可以培养更深的联系。）可知，人们害怕或避免亲密的交谈的原因是由于错误的预期。故答案为：It may be due to miscalculated expectations./ Because of miscalculated expectations. / Because people have miscalculated expectations.
41．考查细节理解。根据第三段第一句“The noticeable difference between participants’ expectations and their actual experience seemed rooted in the assumption that conversation partners wouldn’t care about the details of their lives. ”（参与者的期望和他们的实际经历之间的显著差异似乎植根于这样一种假设，即交谈对象不会关心他们生活中的细节。）第四段第一句“Such an assumption could be a barrier to forming deeper connections with others, Epley believes. ”（Epley 认为，这样的假设可能会成为与他人建立更深层次联系的障碍。）可知，阻碍人们与他人建立更深层次联系在于参与者交谈之前的一种假设，即交谈对象不会关心他们生活中的细节。故答案为：It is the assumptions that conversation partners wouldn’t care about the details of their lives.
42．考查推理判断题。根据最后一段前两句“A single reminder likely isn’t enough to permanently change miscalculated assumptions, Epley warns. But making the effort to engage in just a few positive interactions could help someone mentally reset. ”（Epley 警告说，仅仅一个提醒可能不足以永久改变错误的假设。但是，努力参与一些积极的互动可以帮助人们在精神上重置。）可知，仅仅一个提醒可能不足以永久改变错误的假设。所以给出句子中“A single reminder can permanently change our assumptions”（一个简单的提醒就可以永久地改变我们的假设）与文意不符，故答案为：A single reminder can permanently change our assumptions, but we still need to engage in positive interactions to help us mentally reset. According to the passage, a single reminder isn’t enough to permanently change miscalculated assumptions, but we still need to engage in positive interactions to help us mentally reset.
43．开放题，言之有理即可。根据文章第二段中“In a series of studies published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, participants either engaged in “shallow” conversations (speaking, for example, about their sleep schedule or how often they get haircuts) or “deep” discussions (covering embarrassing moments or what they’re grateful for). ”（在《个性与社会心理学杂志》上发表的一系列研究中，参与者要么进行“浅谈”的谈话(例如，谈论他们的睡眠时间表或者他们多久剪一次头发) ，要么进行“深入”的讨论(讨论尴尬的时刻或者他们感激的事情)。）第三段第一句“The noticeable difference between participants’ expectations and their actual experience seemed rooted in the assumption that conversation partners wouldn’t care about the details of their lives. ”（参与者的期望和他们的实际经历之间的显著差异似乎植根于这样一种假设，即交谈对象不会关心他们生活中的细节。）第四段第一句“Such an assumption could be a barrier to forming deeper connections with others, Epley believes. ”（Epley 认为，这样的假设可能会成为与他人建立更深层次联系的障碍。）可知，在交谈前，人们都会做一个假设，即交谈对象不会关心他们生活中的细节，这个假设的建立会阻碍我们进行深入的交谈。说明“浅谈”不会涉及一个人的生活细节等隐私问题，所以我更喜欢浅显易懂的谈话，因为我们需要遵守社交礼仪，这样才不会让别人觉得被冒犯了。此外，人们的性格不同，所以尊重他们的界限，避免他们可能视为隐私的信息是礼貌和体贴的。故答案为：I prefer to have a shallow conversation because there is social etiquette that we need to observe in order not to make others feel offended. Besides, people differ in personalities so it is polite and considerate to respect their boundaries and avoid information they might view as privacy. (48 words)
