“WOW, THIS is nt what I was expecting at all,” says Allisn, a nurse, remembering the first rmance nvel she ever read. Having shared the general literary bias (偏见) twards rmance nvels, she is nw crazy abut this genre (体裁). Allisn was brwsing in The Ripped Bdice, a rmance-nvel shp that recently pened in Brklyn. The day the shp pened, the queue t get in was mre than an hur lng. The shp, which is uniquely-decrated, is serius in its devtin t rmance nvels.
The ppularity f The Ripped Bdice (the secnd chain stre devted t rmance in the district) is part f a larger shift. During the pandemic, when many were stuck at hme and lking fr escapist reading, fictinal rmance blssmed. In the year t May, rmance print sales were up by 52%, accrding t a market-research firm. List-price sales grew by 74%. Annual grwth in sales went frm 6% in 2020 t mre than 50% last year.
Readers have changed t. Newer fans are mstly yung adults and many are teenagers. They are keen n rmance nvels with a central lve stry and a happy ending.
“The industry has a lt f respect fr what has been happening with rmance,” says Kristen, the manager f the market-research firm. “Nw mdern authrs want t seek smething deeper. Lve is a pwerful feeling. I wish that the writers culd all see their way past thinking that thse emtins are smehw less valuable than emtins that are built ut f pain and srrw,” says Sarah, authr f “Knckut”－a best-seller abut rmance in this seasn.
Librarians have nticed the shift t. Stephanie Andersn, f BkOps, which buys bks fr public libraries in New Yrk and Brklyn, ntes that “the biggest challenge with rmance at this pint is finding the mney and space t keep up with all the ppular titles.”
28. What happened n the day when the Ripped Bdice pened?
A. Sme well-knwn writers appeared n the spt.
B. Readers gathered there ut f passin fr rmance nvels.
C. Readers shwed little interest in this newly-pened bk shp.
D. Allisn’s bias twards rmance nvels has deepened.
29. Which f the fllwing may cntribute t the ppularity f fictinal rmance?
A. Shifts f writing styles.
B. The marketing strategy.
C. The immbility during pandemic.
D. Peple’s attempt t escape reading.
30. What can we learn frm Sarah’s wrds in paragraph 4?
A. Rmance writers shuld dig int emtins built ut f pain and srrw.
B. Rmance authrs shuld pay mre attentin t peple’s thughts in the past.
C. Rmance writers shuld get rid f the cnventinal plts cmpletely.
D. Rmance authrs shuld realize the pwer and value f lve.
31. What is the main idea f the text?
A. Rmance nvels have been gaining ppularity since the pandemic.
B. Rmance authrs will seek smething deeper in writing rmance.
C. Allisn fell in lve with The Ripped Bdice.
D. Readers are crwding int bkstres and libraries.
D
Restless in their seat, glancing arund and never lking yu in the eye. We think we knw when smene is lying, but d we really?
A study shwed that peple’s ability t tell if smene is lying is little better than 50%. Interestingly, anther research suggests that we are actually quite gd at uncnsciusly (无意识地) sptting liars, but ur cnscius thughts verrule this. Scientist R. Edward pints ut that training in recgnising liars desn’t always help, saying “quick, inadequate training sessins lead peple t ver-analyse and t d wrse than if they g with their gut reactins (本能)”.
One reasn fr this may be “truth bias”. Experts have suggested that we are usually biased t believe that peple are telling us the truth. Anther reasn that might make us bad at identifying liars is that there are many myths arund bdy language and lying. Many f us believe that liars are unlikely t lk us in the eye r will be uneasy in their seat. Hwever, this isn’t necessarily the case. It may be that nt lking away, r sitting mre still than usual, are actually the giveaways that smene is lying.
T see hw smene’s behaviur really changes as they lie, many experts recmmend bserving peple talking abut things knwn t be true. This allws us t establish a baseline f their nrmal behaviurs while speaking. Any differences t this baseline behaviur culd shw that smene is lying. This is why it’s much harder t lie t peple wh knw us well.
As liars may be wrking hard t cnceal their behaviurs, sme psychlgists have suggested increasing the effrt needed fr this by asking them t tell their stry again backwards. When facing this increased cgnitive (认知的) lad, any behaviural tell-tale signs are magnified (放大).
It can be hard t spt liars. We are likely t trust peple, and behaviurs can be hidden, but if we knw smene well, and if smene is wrking t hard t stick t their stry, it’s pssible t see thrugh peple wh are nt telling the truth.
32. What can be knwn accrding t the researches in paragraph 2?
A. Mst peple are able t distinguish a liar.
B. Getting trained is quite useful fr telling a liar.
C. Sptting liars is like making a guess.
D. Making cnscius thughts helps spt a liar.
33. Which is NOT recmmended by the experts t spt a liar?
A. Increasing the persn’s cgnitive pressure.
B. Observing the persn talking abut things knwn real.
C. Getting t knw the persn better.
D. Asking the persn t retell his stry frm beginning t end.
34. What is the pssible meaning f the underlined wrd “cnceal”?
A. Disguise. B. Seek. C. Spt. D. Display.
35. What is the best title f the text?
A. Hw we can spt a liar.
B. What a liar’s tricks are.
C. Why it’s hard t spt a liar.
D. Wh are gd at lying.

James, a 24-year-ld investment banker frm Trnt, was just ne week int his new jb n Wall Street. Over the past mnth, he’d been settling in t the New Yrk City apartment he was sharing with his cllege friend, an artificial intelligence engineer named Raphael.
Nw, last week, the tw were ging t meet in a lunchtime n Pier (码头) 15, verlking the East River, when James frze. “Smebdy’s in the water,” he said. Befre Raphael culd respnd, James climbed ver the rail (栏杆) at the edge f the pier and jumped int the cld, plluted water withut taking the time t remve his shes.
What James had heard was an alarmed fisherman shuting frm Pier 16, nearly 50 yards away, “Help! He’s in the water!” And what he’d seen was a persn flating, lifeless.
Raphael didn’t need t see the victim. Maybe James saw smene in the water wh needs ur help, he thught. Or maybe it’s James wh needs my help. Either way, I’m ging in. He tk ff his shes and dived.
Appraching the uncnscius victim, James saw that it was a middle-aged man. He was big, arund 200 punds, respectably dressed and sinking fast. He was 3 feet belw the surface by the time James reached him. The rescuer dived, felt arund, grasped the man and kicked upward until they bth gt ut f the surface. Raphael was there nw. In the water, the tw friends flated the man n his back. As Raphael put his arms arund the man’s shulders and James supprted the bttm and knees, the pair pulled the man back t Pier 15. Their lungs heaved and their muscles burned as they pushed and pulled the immbile figure thrugh the water.
They might have been dragging a dead bdy. The man’s skin was blue, and neither Raphael nr James detected any breathing. When at last they reached Pier 15, they faced a new uncertainty. Hw t get ut f the water? The shre was half meter abve their heads.

“WOW, THIS is nt what I was expecting at all,” says Allisn, a nurse, remembering the first rmance nvel she ever read. Having shared the general literary bias (偏见) twards rmance nvels, she is nw crazy abut this genre (体裁). Allisn was brwsing in The Ripped Bdice, a rmance-nvel shp that recently pened in Brklyn. The day the shp pened, the queue t get in was mre than an hur lng. The shp, which is uniquely-decrated, is serius in its devtin t rmance nvels.
The ppularity f The Ripped Bdice (the secnd chain stre devted t rmance in the district) is part f a larger shift. During the pandemic, when many were stuck at hme and lking fr escapist reading, fictinal rmance blssmed. In the year t May, rmance print sales were up by 52%, accrding t a market-research firm. List-price sales grew by 74%. Annual grwth in sales went frm 6% in 2020 t mre than 50% last year.
Readers have changed t. Newer fans are mstly yung adults and many are teenagers. They are keen n rmance nvels with a central lve stry and a happy ending.
“The industry has a lt f respect fr what has been happening with rmance,” says Kristen, the manager f the market-research firm. “Nw mdern authrs want t seek smething deeper. Lve is a pwerful feeling. I wish that the writers culd all see their way past thinking that thse emtins are smehw less valuable than emtins that are built ut f pain and srrw,” says Sarah, authr f “Knckut”－a best-seller abut rmance in this seasn.
Librarians have nticed the shift t. Stephanie Andersn, f BkOps, which buys bks fr public libraries in New Yrk and Brklyn, ntes that “the biggest challenge with rmance at this pint is finding the mney and space t keep up with all the ppular titles.”
28. What happened n the day when the Ripped Bdice pened?
A. Sme well-knwn writers appeared n the spt.
B. Readers gathered there ut f passin fr rmance nvels.
C. Readers shwed little interest in this newly-pened bk shp.
D. Allisn’s bias twards rmance nvels has deepened.
29. Which f the fllwing may cntribute t the ppularity f fictinal rmance?
A. Shifts f writing styles.
B. The marketing strategy.
C. The immbility during pandemic.
D. Peple’s attempt t escape reading.
30. What can we learn frm Sarah’s wrds in paragraph 4?
A. Rmance writers shuld dig int emtins built ut f pain and srrw.
B. Rmance authrs shuld pay mre attentin t peple’s thughts in the past.
C. Rmance writers shuld get rid f the cnventinal plts cmpletely.
D. Rmance authrs shuld realize the pwer and value f lve.
31. What is the main idea f the text?
A. Rmance nvels have been gaining ppularity since the pandemic.
B. Rmance authrs will seek smething deeper in writing rmance.
C. Allisn fell in lve with The Ripped Bdice.
D. Readers are crwding int bkstres and libraries.

Restless in their seat, glancing arund and never lking yu in the eye. We think we knw when smene is lying, but d we really?
A study shwed that peple’s ability t tell if smene is lying is little better than 50%. Interestingly, anther research suggests that we are actually quite gd at uncnsciusly (无意识地) sptting liars, but ur cnscius thughts verrule this. Scientist R. Edward pints ut that training in recgnising liars desn’t always help, saying “quick, inadequate training sessins lead peple t ver-analyse and t d wrse than if they g with their gut reactins (本能)”.
One reasn fr this may be “truth bias”. Experts have suggested that we are usually biased t believe that peple are telling us the truth. Anther reasn that might make us bad at identifying liars is that there are many myths arund bdy language and lying. Many f us believe that liars are unlikely t lk us in the eye r will be uneasy in their seat. Hwever, this isn’t necessarily the case. It may be that nt lking away, r sitting mre still than usual, are actually the giveaways that smene is lying.
T see hw smene’s behaviur really changes as they lie, many experts recmmend bserving peple talking abut things knwn t be true. This allws us t establish a baseline f their nrmal behaviurs while speaking. Any differences t this baseline behaviur culd shw that smene is lying. This is why it’s much harder t lie t peple wh knw us well.
As liars may be wrking hard t cnceal their behaviurs, sme psychlgists have suggested increasing the effrt needed fr this by asking them t tell their stry again backwards. When facing this increased cgnitive (认知的) lad, any behaviural tell-tale signs are magnified (放大).
It can be hard t spt liars. We are likely t trust peple, and behaviurs can be hidden, but if we knw smene well, and if smene is wrking t hard t stick t their stry, it’s pssible t see thrugh peple wh are nt telling the truth.
32. What can be knwn accrding t the researches in paragraph 2?
A. Mst peple are able t distinguish a liar.
B. Getting trained is quite useful fr telling a liar.
C. Sptting liars is like making a guess.
D. Making cnscius thughts helps spt a liar.
33. Which is NOT recmmended by the experts t spt a liar?
A. Increasing the persn’s cgnitive pressure.
B. Observing the persn talking abut things knwn real.
C. Getting t knw the persn better.
D. Asking the persn t retell his stry frm beginning t end.
34. What is the pssible meaning f the underlined wrd “cnceal”?
A. Disguise. B. Seek. C. Spt. D. Display.
35. What is the best title f the text?
A. Hw we can spt a liar.
B. What a liar’s tricks are.
C. Why it’s hard t spt a liar.
D. Wh are gd at lying.

James, a 24-year-ld investment banker frm Trnt, was just ne week int his new jb n Wall Street. Over the past mnth, he’d been settling in t the New Yrk City apartment he was sharing with his cllege friend, an artificial intelligence engineer named Raphael.
Nw, last week, the tw were ging t meet in a lunchtime n Pier (码头) 15, verlking the East River, when James frze. “Smebdy’s in the water,” he said. Befre Raphael culd respnd, James climbed ver the rail (栏杆) at the edge f the pier and jumped int the cld, plluted water withut taking the time t remve his shes.
What James had heard was an alarmed fisherman shuting frm Pier 16, nearly 50 yards away, “Help! He’s in the water!” And what he’d seen was a persn flating, lifeless.
Raphael didn’t need t see the victim. Maybe James saw smene in the water wh needs ur help, he thught. Or maybe it’s James wh needs my help. Either way, I’m ging in. He tk ff his shes and dived.
Appraching the uncnscius victim, James saw that it was a middle-aged man. He was big, arund 200 punds, respectably dressed and sinking fast. He was 3 feet belw the surface by the time James reached him. The rescuer dived, felt arund, grasped the man and kicked upward until they bth gt ut f the surface. Raphael was there nw. In the water, the tw friends flated the man n his back. As Raphael put his arms arund the man’s shulders and James supprted the bttm and knees, the pair pulled the man back t Pier 15. Their lungs heaved and their muscles burned as they pushed and pulled the immbile figure thrugh the water.
They might have been dragging a dead bdy. The man’s skin was blue, and neither Raphael nr James detected any breathing. When at last they reached Pier 15, they faced a new uncertainty. Hw t get ut f the water? The shre was half meter abve their heads.
