A

Want to explore new cultures, meet new people and do something worthwhile at the same time? You can do all the three with Global Development Association (GDA). Whatever stage of life you're at, wherever you go and whatever project you do in GDA, you'll create positive changes in a poor and remote community (社区)．

We work with volunteers of all ages and backgrounds. Most of our volunteers are aged 17－24. Now we need volunteer managers aged 25－75. They are extremely important in the safe and effective running of our programmes. We have such roles as project managers, mountain leaders, and communication officers.

Depending on which role you choose, you could help to increase a community's access to safe drinking water, or help to protect valuable local cultures. You might also design an adventure challenge to train young volunteers.

Not only will you help our young volunteers to develop personally, you'll also learn new skills and increase your cultural awareness. You may have chances to meet new people who'll become your lifelong friends.

This summer we have both 4­week and 7­week programmes：

GDA ensures that volunteers work with community members and local project partners where our help is needed. All our projects aim to promote the development of poor and remote communities.

There is no other chance like a GDA programme. Join us as a volunteer manager to develop your own skills while bringing benefits to the communities.

Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. She was kind. People always seemed to feel comfortable in her presence. For years, she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home with her where she taught a ceramic class.

On one summer day, Mama told me to get changed and meet her at the car.

I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything? I imagined the cool lake water. Annoyed, I climbed into the car and slammed the door shut. We sat in silence. I was too upset to make conversation.

“Tasha, would you like to know where we are going？” Mama asked calmly.

“No，” I said.

“We are going to volunteer at a children's shelter today. I have been there before and I think it will benefit you，” she explained.

When we reached the shelter, Mama rang the doorbell. Moments later, we were greeted by a woman. She led us to the front room where all of the children were playing. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with iron marks. I was told it was because she wouldn't stop crying. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars. Others hid their emotional wounds.

As I took in my surroundings, I felt a gentle tug on my shirt. I looked down to see a little girl looking up at me. “Hi. You want to play dolls with me？” she asked. I looked over at Mama for reinforcement. She smiled and nodded. I turned back and said, “Sure.” Her tiny hand reached up and held mine, as if to comfort me.

My mom taught me a worthy lesson that summer. I returned to the shelter with her several times. During those visits, some of the children shared their troubled past with me and I learned to be grateful for what I had. Today as I try to instill (逐渐灌输) these values in my own child, I reflect back to that experience. It was a time that I will never forget.

(2016·四川省南充市第三次适应性考试)Two recent studies have found that punishment is not the best way to influence behavior.

One showed that adults are much more cooperative if they work in a system based on rewards. Researchers at Harvard University in the United States and the Stockholm School of Economics in Sweden did the study.

They had about two hundred college students play a version of the game known as the Prisoner's Dilemma. The game is based on the tension (紧张气氛) between the interests of an individual and a group. The students played in groups of four. Each player could win points for the group, so they would all gain equally. But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players, at a cost to the punisher.

Harvard researcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to be cooperation. The groups that rewarded it the most earned about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded it the least. And the more a group punished itself, the lower its earnings were. The group with the most punishment earned twenty­five percent less than the group with the least punishment. The study appeared last month in the journal Science.

The other study involved children. It was presented last month in California at a conference on violence and abuse. Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups. More

than eight hundred children aged two to four the first time they were tested. More than seven hundred children aged five to nine.

The two groups were retested four years later, and the study compared the results with the first test. Both groups contained children whose parents used physical punishment and children whose parents did not. The study says the IQs — or intelligence quotients — of the younger children who were not spanked were five points higher than those who were. In the older group, the difference was almost three points.

Murray Strauss from the University of New Hampshire worked with Mallie Paschall from the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation. Professor Strauss has written extensively about physical punishment of children. He says the more they are spanked, the slower their mental development. He also looked at average IQs in other nations and found them lower where spanking was more common.

1．Which could be the best title of the passage?

A．Punishment

B．The Best Way to Influence Behavior

C．Punishment or Reward: Which Works Better on Behavior?

D．Two Recent Studies

2．The underlined word “spanked” probably means “______”．

A．won B．punished

C．tested D．praised

3．According to the passage, the researchers may agree the best way to influence behavior is ________.

A．rewarding good behavior

B．correcting bad behavior

C．punishing badly­behaved children

D．praising well­behaved children

4．The author develops the passage ________.

A．in order of time

B．in order of importance

C．by describing his experiences

D．by using quotations (引证) and statistics

  D

You are a new manager at the American branch of your German firm in Chicago. With a few minutes to spare between meetings, you go to get a quick cup of coffee.

“Hey, David, how are you？” one of the senior partners at the firm asks you.

“Good, thank you, Dr Greer，” you reply. You've really been wanting to make a connection with the senior leadership at the firm, and this seems like a great opportunity. But as you start to think of something to say, your American colleague breaks in to steal your spotlight.

“So Arnold，” your colleague says to your boss, in such a casual manner that it makes your German soul cringe (畏缩), “So what's your Super bowl prediction? I mean, you're a Niners fan, right？”

The conversation moves on, and you walk silently back to your desk with your coffee. You know how important small talk is in the US, and you feel jealous of people who can do it well.

There's nothing small about the role that small talk plays in American professional culture. People from other countries are often surprised at how important small talk is in the US and how naturally and comfortably people seem to do it—with peers, men, women, and even with superiors. You can be the most technically skilled worker in the world, but your ability to progress in your job in the United States is highly dependent on your ability to build and maintain positive relationships with people at work. And guess what skill is critical for building and maintaining these relationships? Small talk.

What can you do if you are from another culture and want to learn to use small talk in the US to build relationships and establish trust? Work hard to hone (磨炼) your own version of American­style small talk. Watch how others do it. You don't have to imitate what they do; in fact, that would likely backfire because people would see you as inauthentic (假的，不可信的). But if you can develop your own personal version, that can go a long way toward making you feel comfortable and competent.

1．The author introduces the topic of the passage by ________.

A．offering a plot 

B．describing an interesting scene

C．making comparisons 

D．telling a small joke

2.What do we know about German people?

A．They don't make so much small talk.

B．They hate making small talk.

C．They usually make small talk in work breaks.

D．They are good at making small talk too.

 3.What makes people from other countries surprised in American professional culture?

A．American workers' ability to make progress.

B．American workers' attitude towards superiors.

C．The special meaning of small talk.

D．The role small talk plays in work settings.

4．What does “backfire” underlined in the last paragraph mean?

A．Have a warm atmosphere 

B．Have the opposite effect

C．Have a good result 

D．Have a hard time

I read an interesting article in a teachers' magazine recently. __2__ Worryingly, the results showed that teenagers are facing a new problem. They may go to bed and get up at appropriate times, but a growing number are waking up in the middle of the night, not to use the bathroom or have a snack, but because of FOMO.

Experts are worried about this growing trend and the report reveals some worrying statistics: 23% of 12­to 15­year­olds wake up nearly every night to use social media. __4__ One in third of the students are constantly tired and unable to function to their full capacity.

So I'd like to ask you to be responsible when it comes to social media. Switch off your devices at night. The world won't end and your social media will be waiting to greet you in the morning! __5__

A．But things are getting out of hand.

B．I give you my word that you won't have missed anything important.

D．They did a study of 848 students in Wales.

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。

(2020·新高考Ⅰ卷)The Meredith family lived in a small community. As the economy was in decline, some people in the town had lost their jobs. Many of their families were struggling to make ends meet. People were trying to help each other meet the challenges.

Mrs. Meredith was a most kind and thoughtful woman. She spent a great deal of time visiting the poor. She knew they had problems, and they needed all kinds of help. When she had time, she would bring food and medicine to them.

One morning she told her children about a family she had visited the day before. There was a man sick in bed, his wife, who took care of him and could not go out to work, and their little boy. The little boy—his name was Bernard—had interested her very much.

“I wish you could see him，” she said to her own children, John, Harry, and Clara. “He is such a help to his mother. He wants very much to earn some money, but I don't see what he can do.”

After their mother left the room, the children sat thinking about Bernard. “I wish we could help him to earn money，” said Clara. “His family is suffering so much.”

“So do I，” said Harry. “We really should do something to assist them.”

For some moments, John said nothing, but, suddenly, he sprang to his feet and cried, “I have a great idea! I have a solution that we can all help accomplish (完成).”

The other children also jumped up all attention. When John had an idea, it was sure to be a good one. “I tell you what we can do，” said John. “You know that big box of corn Uncle John sent us? Well, we can make popcorn (爆米花), and put it into paper bags, and Bernard can take it around to the houses and sell it.”

注意：

1．续写词数应为150左右；

2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。

When Mrs. Meredith heard of John's idea, she thought it was a good one, too. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

With everything ready, Bernard started out on his new business.
