My phone is silent,no one calling to chat.But then chatting on the phone is not so popular these days.I check my Meta page.I “like” a few of my friends’ posts as an attempt to spark a conversation but all I get is a thumbs-up response,or nothing at all.I move on to Twitter.Mostly I read the news.“Like” a few stories and retweet one or two.
I decide I need to get out of the house.I go to the grocery store in search of milk and bread and human contact.All the customers are on their phone,making plans or double-checking items on their list.“The avocados aren’t ripe.Do you still want them?” “Do we need eggs?” But they’re not asking me.I avoid the self checkout,convinced that if I use it,I’m really doing the checkout person’s job without pay.Plus,I want some human contact,a little conversation.I line up.The cashier speaks to me,without looking up,“Need a bag?” “No,thank you,” I say.She waves her hand towards the credit card machine.I tap.I pack my own groceries.
Later I stop at a local bank.They’ve been closed for a few weeks doing some renovations,“to serve you better”.I walk past the ATMs in the lobby and notice that inside,all the bank teller counters are gone.Should I feign ignorance just for a little conversation?I do.I say I’ve misplaced my PIN and have to create a new one for my debit card;the young man is helpful.I ask about the fate of the bank tellers,one of whom was planning to become a writer.I usually chose her line so we could chat a bit about writing contests and publishing and writer’s block.Now she’s missing.
At home,my phone is flashing;I have a message.It’s from my youngest grandson.He’s sent me a few emojis of my favourite things:my Fiat,red lipstick,a heart and a happy face.What can I say?
24.What problem does the writer have?

A.To chat with a bank teller about writing. B.To judge the fate of the bank tellers.

Australians are pretty bold (大胆的) when it comes to humour.Not afraid of saying something insulting (冒犯的) in the name of a good laugh,they generally don’t hold back.This is always done in fun,however.
You get yourself a haircut before going to meet your new Aussie friend.You’re expecting to be praised,but what you hear is,“Did you have a fight with a lawnmower (割草机)?” You might take this as an insult,but it’s just your friend’s way of saying that you’ve had a haircut.
Your friend comes knocking at your bedroom door one morning to tell you’re late for class.You were up studying late the night before and you look a mess.Your friend thinks you need to put a brush through your hair before leaving,but instead of just saying so he says,“Wow.Your hair looks like a bush pig’s arse.” He’s trying to be nice.
Australia is one of the cultures on this planet where making fun of someone is a sign of friendship.If you find yourself being made fun of a lot,it could be that you’ve scored yourself a whole lot of new friends.Consider yourself lucky—these insults are all part of building a relationship.
Australians also use a lot of sarcasm (讽刺).You foolishly say something that’s obvious.For example,“A six pack of beer is named after the number of beers you get in the pack,the number being six.” A normal answer would be,“That is the most obvious statement I’ve ever heard”,but an Australian would say,“Really?You’re so clever.”
Now let’s say your teacher tells you that there will be a test the following day.Australians might say,“Great.I can’t wait to add preparing for a test to my already long to-do list.Thank you for this gift.”
28.According to paragraphs 2 and 3,Australians try to be humorous .
A.by telling funny jokes B.by making fun of friends
C.by laughing at themselves D.by showing unfriendliness
29.What does the author advise you to do when you are laughed at by an Australian?
A.Accept it readily. B.Fight back bravely.
C.Mind your behaviour. D.End the relationship.
30.What do Australians want to express by saying “Thank you for this gift” in the last paragraph?
A.Dislike. B.Worry. C.Gladness. D.Thankfulness.
31.How is the text mainly developed?
A.By telling stories. B.By making comparisons.
C.By providing examples. D.By examining differences.
D
One way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognise its benefits.It is a mistake to think that we’d make better decisions if only we keep our feelings under control.Instead,a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical thinking leads to sound decision-making.It’s true that there is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making.There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.
Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationships (for example,they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognising people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger is present.
In the real world though,it’s worth realising that feeling anxious once in a while is extremely common.It communicates to others that you care,and what’s more,it’s probably a sign that you are intelligent.At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests.This seems reasonable:if you’re a thinker,you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagine possible plots,including bad ones.
The important thing,if you are a worrywart (杞人忧天者),is not to let your fear destroy your dreams.And don’t bury your head in the sand.Instead,act on your fears—do the research as well as preparation,so rather than walking blindly into that which you fear,you meet the challenge in full readiness.
When anxiety beats you,or casts a shadow over your life,this is a serious problem.No one is denying that.But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or an interview,you needn’t see it as your enemy.Anxiety is an important feeling,developed through evolution.As for people who are fairly anxious by nature,there is reason for cheer,too.Your nerves are a sign of your watchfulness.Listen to them and act on them.Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.
32.What can we infer from the first paragraph about anxiety?
A.It can enable us to be more focused.
B.It can stop us from thinking logically.
C.It can make us more willing to take risks.
D.It can be the only reason for all bad decisions.
33.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Anxious people are less sensitive to danger.
B.Anxious people have difficulty discovering liars.
C.Feeling anxious is more likely to put people at risk.
D.Feeling anxious occasionally is a sign of intelligence.
34.How should we deal with anxiety in the author’s opinion?
A.Regard it as our enemy. B.Take action to control it.
C.Avoid being defeated by it. D.Treat it as a minor feeling.
35.What is the theme of the passage?
A.Effective ways to prevent anxiety.
B.Unexpected benefits of anxiety.
C.Tips on how to keep a good mood.
D.Common misunderstandings about anxiety.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A hearty laugh means the same thing on every continent:joy. 36 when we laugh with someone else.
Scientists have found that people around the world can tell whether people are friends or strangers by listening to them laughing together.And the ability is globally owned by people. 37 .The study,published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,used a simple experiment.Psychologist Gregory Bryant recorded pairs of college students having conversations.Some were friends. 38 .He then picked out just the parts in which the two people were laughing.Each cut was only about one second long.Then Bryant and his colleagues at the University of California,Los Angeles,first had volunteers listen to the records of laughter. 39 .They ran the experiment in 24 societies around the globe,including indigenous tribes (土著部落) in New Guinea,tiny villages in Peru and cities in India and China.
40 .They were good at telling whether women were friends.But for other pairs—like two men laughing—it was harder.On average,listeners guessed correctly only about 60 percent of the time.Details about what laughter means require cross-cultural studies.Even in the most remote places on Earth,a laugh among friends is a special sound.
A.Laughter does good to you
B.Some hardly knew each other
C.People weren’t perfect at the task
D.But our laughter may reveal more than we realise
E.In other words,it isn’t limited by culture and language
F.So laugh a hearty laugh for at least three times every day
G.Then the volunteers were asked to guess whether the people were friends or strangers

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The most delicious memories seem to happen during holidays.And like a squirrel preparing for winter,I put them away to enjoy slowly during the long winter months.Sometimes,I enjoy them for years.
Among them are sweetest recollections:my little girls at the church play and the moment they got their first angel wings;a pink dolly stroller (手推车) wheeled into the bedroom with a tiny voice declaring,“Look what Santa Claus brought me!”;or New Year’s snowmen wearing bright scarves borrowed from a grandma’s fragrant drawer.
But there is one memory that is a little bittersweet—sort of like 80% dark chocolate,but still good for you.
This story brings to mind a colourful candy dish and a very little boy.The occasion was sometime between Christmas and New Year when a few candies in a dish brightened up a dull winter day.
Wrapped in December’s chill,my then 3-year-old grandson,Justin,and I had dashed from the warmth of my parked car into the building where I planned to take care of a few work-related tasks.
A smiling secretary greeted us as we brushed the snowflakes and rubbed our hands to warm them.Then with my grandchild close to my side,I busied myself finishing the items of business that had brought us there.But while his hand remained in mine,his eyes fell on the candy dish sitting nearby.
As we turned to leave,the thoughtful and very observant woman behind the desk asked the question all children wait to hear.
“Honey,” the kind woman said,peering over her glasses at Justin.“Would you like a candy bar?” she asked,her hand pushing the dish close for an easier reach.
The boy looked up questioningly,his eyes meeting mine,permission hanging in the air.A slight nod from me and then a hurried beeline to the candy dish followed.One candy bar was already in his hand.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
“Justin!” I said from the doorway.

第一节
Good morning,ladies and gentlemen.Thank you for giving me the opportunity to tell you about humour.
A sense of humour is considered to be one of the most important human qualities that improve our life in different ways.Firstly,at school,a humorous teacher can help students focus their attention very easily,and students will become more active and creative when experiencing the joy of learning.Secondly,humour has a positive effect on our health.It’s said that laughter is the best medicine.Thirdly,humour helps us remove stress and have a positive attitude towards life.Finally,I believe humour can be a powerful and delightful way to establish close friendships with people.
Thanks!
第二节
“Justin!” I said from the doorway.By this time his pudgy hands had grabbed one—and only one—and he made his way back to me.My voice was somewhat serious as I realised manners had been forgotten.“What do you say?” Hearing this,the little boy turned on his heel,promptly returning to the candy dish.“Get Grandma one,too!” I laughed.The secretary laughed.And even little Justin innocently giggled at the fun we were having.
In the humour of the moment,I felt something hard to swallow.There was a truth that lingered long after the taste of the strawberry candy had disappeared.What example had I set for this little one while often in my care?Was he learning more about “getting” and less about gratitude—that heartfelt “thank you”?In the years since,I’ve always loved to remember that moment.But one gift I hope we all leave with our children is the importance of a grateful heart.Really,what could be sweeter?

My phone is silent,no one calling to chat.But then chatting on the phone is not so popular these days.I check my Meta page.I “like” a few of my friends’ posts as an attempt to spark a conversation but all I get is a thumbs-up response,or nothing at all.I move on to Twitter.Mostly I read the news.“Like” a few stories and retweet one or two.
I decide I need to get out of the house.I go to the grocery store in search of milk and bread and human contact.All the customers are on their phone,making plans or double-checking items on their list.“The avocados aren’t ripe.Do you still want them?” “Do we need eggs?” But they’re not asking me.I avoid the self checkout,convinced that if I use it,I’m really doing the checkout person’s job without pay.Plus,I want some human contact,a little conversation.I line up.The cashier speaks to me,without looking up,“Need a bag?” “No,thank you,” I say.She waves her hand towards the credit card machine.I tap.I pack my own groceries.
Later I stop at a local bank.They’ve been closed for a few weeks doing some renovations,“to serve you better”.I walk past the ATMs in the lobby and notice that inside,all the bank teller counters are gone.Should I feign ignorance just for a little conversation?I do.I say I’ve misplaced my PIN and have to create a new one for my debit card;the young man is helpful.I ask about the fate of the bank tellers,one of whom was planning to become a writer.I usually chose her line so we could chat a bit about writing contests and publishing and writer’s block.Now she’s missing.
At home,my phone is flashing;I have a message.It’s from my youngest grandson.He’s sent me a few emojis of my favourite things:my Fiat,red lipstick,a heart and a happy face.What can I say?
24.What problem does the writer have?

26.Why does the writer pretend ignorance at the bank?
A.To chat with a bank teller about writing. B.To judge the fate of the bank tellers.

Australians are pretty bold (大胆的) when it comes to humour.Not afraid of saying something insulting (冒犯的) in the name of a good laugh,they generally don’t hold back.This is always done in fun,however.
You get yourself a haircut before going to meet your new Aussie friend.You’re expecting to be praised,but what you hear is,“Did you have a fight with a lawnmower (割草机)?” You might take this as an insult,but it’s just your friend’s way of saying that you’ve had a haircut.
Your friend comes knocking at your bedroom door one morning to tell you’re late for class.You were up studying late the night before and you look a mess.Your friend thinks you need to put a brush through your hair before leaving,but instead of just saying so he says,“Wow.Your hair looks like a bush pig’s arse.” He’s trying to be nice.
Australia is one of the cultures on this planet where making fun of someone is a sign of friendship.If you find yourself being made fun of a lot,it could be that you’ve scored yourself a whole lot of new friends.Consider yourself lucky—these insults are all part of building a relationship.
Australians also use a lot of sarcasm (讽刺).You foolishly say something that’s obvious.For example,“A six pack of beer is named after the number of beers you get in the pack,the number being six.” A normal answer would be,“That is the most obvious statement I’ve ever heard”,but an Australian would say,“Really?You’re so clever.”
Now let’s say your teacher tells you that there will be a test the following day.Australians might say,“Great.I can’t wait to add preparing for a test to my already long to-do list.Thank you for this gift.”
28.According to paragraphs 2 and 3,Australians try to be humorous .
A.by telling funny jokes B.by making fun of friends
C.by laughing at themselves D.by showing unfriendliness
29.What does the author advise you to do when you are laughed at by an Australian?
A.Accept it readily. B.Fight back bravely.
C.Mind your behaviour. D.End the relationship.
30.What do Australians want to express by saying “Thank you for this gift” in the last paragraph?
A.Dislike. B.Worry. C.Gladness. D.Thankfulness.
31.How is the text mainly developed?
A.By telling stories. B.By making comparisons.
C.By providing examples. D.By examining differences.
D
One way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognise its benefits.It is a mistake to think that we’d make better decisions if only we keep our feelings under control.Instead,a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical thinking leads to sound decision-making.It’s true that there is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making.There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.
Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationships (for example,they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognising people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger is present.
In the real world though,it’s worth realising that feeling anxious once in a while is extremely common.It communicates to others that you care,and what’s more,it’s probably a sign that you are intelligent.At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests.This seems reasonable:if you’re a thinker,you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagine possible plots,including bad ones.
The important thing,if you are a worrywart (杞人忧天者),is not to let your fear destroy your dreams.And don’t bury your head in the sand.Instead,act on your fears—do the research as well as preparation,so rather than walking blindly into that which you fear,you meet the challenge in full readiness.
When anxiety beats you,or casts a shadow over your life,this is a serious problem.No one is denying that.But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or an interview,you needn’t see it as your enemy.Anxiety is an important feeling,developed through evolution.As for people who are fairly anxious by nature,there is reason for cheer,too.Your nerves are a sign of your watchfulness.Listen to them and act on them.Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.
32.What can we infer from the first paragraph about anxiety?
A.It can enable us to be more focused.
B.It can stop us from thinking logically.
C.It can make us more willing to take risks.
D.It can be the only reason for all bad decisions.
33.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Anxious people are less sensitive to danger.
B.Anxious people have difficulty discovering liars.
C.Feeling anxious is more likely to put people at risk.
D.Feeling anxious occasionally is a sign of intelligence.
34.How should we deal with anxiety in the author’s opinion?
A.Regard it as our enemy. B.Take action to control it.
C.Avoid being defeated by it. D.Treat it as a minor feeling.
35.What is the theme of the passage?
A.Effective ways to prevent anxiety.
B.Unexpected benefits of anxiety.
C.Tips on how to keep a good mood.
D.Common misunderstandings about anxiety.

A hearty laugh means the same thing on every continent:joy. 36 when we laugh with someone else.
Scientists have found that people around the world can tell whether people are friends or strangers by listening to them laughing together.And the ability is globally owned by people. 37 .The study,published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,used a simple experiment.Psychologist Gregory Bryant recorded pairs of college students having conversations.Some were friends. 38 .He then picked out just the parts in which the two people were laughing.Each cut was only about one second long.Then Bryant and his colleagues at the University of California,Los Angeles,first had volunteers listen to the records of laughter. 39 .They ran the experiment in 24 societies around the globe,including indigenous tribes (土著部落) in New Guinea,tiny villages in Peru and cities in India and China.
40 .They were good at telling whether women were friends.But for other pairs—like two men laughing—it was harder.On average,listeners guessed correctly only about 60 percent of the time.Details about what laughter means require cross-cultural studies.Even in the most remote places on Earth,a laugh among friends is a special sound.
A.Laughter does good to you
B.Some hardly knew each other
C.People weren’t perfect at the task
D.But our laughter may reveal more than we realise
E.In other words,it isn’t limited by culture and language
F.So laugh a hearty laugh for at least three times every day
G.Then the volunteers were asked to guess whether the people were friends or strangers

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The most delicious memories seem to happen during holidays.And like a squirrel preparing for winter,I put them away to enjoy slowly during the long winter months.Sometimes,I enjoy them for years.
Among them are sweetest recollections:my little girls at the church play and the moment they got their first angel wings;a pink dolly stroller (手推车) wheeled into the bedroom with a tiny voice declaring,“Look what Santa Claus brought me!”;or New Year’s snowmen wearing bright scarves borrowed from a grandma’s fragrant drawer.
But there is one memory that is a little bittersweet—sort of like 80% dark chocolate,but still good for you.
This story brings to mind a colourful candy dish and a very little boy.The occasion was sometime between Christmas and New Year when a few candies in a dish brightened up a dull winter day.
Wrapped in December’s chill,my then 3-year-old grandson,Justin,and I had dashed from the warmth of my parked car into the building where I planned to take care of a few work-related tasks.
A smiling secretary greeted us as we brushed the snowflakes and rubbed our hands to warm them.Then with my grandchild close to my side,I busied myself finishing the items of business that had brought us there.But while his hand remained in mine,his eyes fell on the candy dish sitting nearby.
As we turned to leave,the thoughtful and very observant woman behind the desk asked the question all children wait to hear.
“Honey,” the kind woman said,peering over her glasses at Justin.“Would you like a candy bar?” she asked,her hand pushing the dish close for an easier reach.
The boy looked up questioningly,his eyes meeting mine,permission hanging in the air.A slight nod from me and then a hurried beeline to the candy dish followed.One candy bar was already in his hand.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
“Justin!” I said from the doorway.

Thanks!

“Justin!” I said from the doorway.By this time his pudgy hands had grabbed one—and only one—and he made his way back to me.My voice was somewhat serious as I realised manners had been forgotten.“What do you say?” Hearing this,the little boy turned on his heel,promptly returning to the candy dish.“Get Grandma one,too!” I laughed.The secretary laughed.And even little Justin innocently giggled at the fun we were having.
In the humour of the moment,I felt something hard to swallow.There was a truth that lingered long after the taste of the strawberry candy had disappeared.What example had I set for this little one while often in my care?Was he learning more about “getting” and less about gratitude—that heartfelt “thank you”?In the years since,I’ve always loved to remember that moment.But one gift I hope we all leave with our children is the importance of a grateful heart.Really,what could be sweeter?
