21、 Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.
Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.
Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.
You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure (失败). In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame (责备) themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk (风险) taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.
For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don't forget — if you are shy, you are not the only one.
【1】What can you learn from the passage?
A.Most little babies are born shy and quiet.
B.If you are shy now, you will be shy forever.
C.Most Israeli people are shy of expressing opinions.
D.Many shy children have older brothers and sisters.
【2】What can cause shyness according to the passage?
A.Genetics, grow-ups and birthplace. B.Family size, grow-ups and failure.
C.Genetics, family size and birthplace. D.Genetics, family size and failure.
【3】What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To encourage people to study shyness more. B.To introduce the reasons why people are shy.
C.To explain why scientists study shyness. D.To show why shyness makes people fail.
22、Swimming and English Learning
Can you swim? Do you like swimming? Yes? Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I’m afraid you’ll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others who are swimming. It’s the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.
Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English-speaking countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on the radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn’t matter. Just be relaxed, and try to catch every word.
Somebody may be a good listener. But he or she dare not speak. He or she is afraid of making mistakes. You know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don’t be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows English. Whether you know him or not is not important. When there’s nobody to talk with, you can talk to yourself in English. It’s interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you’ll make.
Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First, we must choose the books we’re interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most important.
Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines. Don’t be afraid of failure. Failure is the mother of success.
Easier said than done. Well, let’s do more practice from now on. I’m sure you’ll learn English well in this way.
【1】You can learn to swim by .
A.reading books about it
B.looking at others who are swimming
C.having lessons on it
D.going into the water and learning
【2】We can listen to English , according to the passage.

B.on the radio
C.every minute
D.now and then
【3】What should you do with mistakes when you speak?

B.Study hard.
C.Try not to speak English.
D.Don’t be afraid.
【4】We should learn English by .
A.listening and speaking
B.reading and writing

23、There were many plants in a forest. When spring came, a pine tree saw a red rose nearby and said, “What a beautiful flower! I wish I were that lovely.”
The rose proudly said, “It seems that I am the most beautiful flower in this forest.” Then the rose looked at a cactus (仙人掌) and said, “Look at that ugly plant full of thorns (刺)!”
“What a proud flower!” thought the pine tree.
As the days passed, the red rose often looked at the cactus and said bad words about it, like “This plant is useless. How sorry I am to be his neighbor!”
The cactus never got angry and even tried to advise the rose, saying, “Everything has its value.”
Spring passed, and the weather became very hot. As there was no rain, the red rose began to wilt (枯萎).
One day the rose saw birds put their beaks (喙) into the cactus and then fly away. The red rose asked the pine tree what the birds were doing. The pine tree explained that the birds were getting water from the cactus.
“The cactus has water?” asked the rose.
“Yes, you can also drink some from it. The birds can bring water to you if you ask the cactus for help.”
The red rose felt too ashamed to ask for water from the cactus. But finally it did ask for help. The cactus kindly agreed.
The rose learned a lesson and never judged (评价) anyone by his/her appearance again.
【1】At first ______ thought the cactus was ugly.
A.the rose
B.the pine tree
C.the birds
D.the thorns
【2】Why did the red rose begin to wilt?

24、 For people, it's not surprising that we can open a door, lift a heavy box and control ourselves while walking in the snow. But can a robot do this? Well, Google's new robot, Atlas, can not only do these things, but it can also stand up if it falls down. Although the robot may be slow and clumsy, it was created mainly to work in dangerous places for humans.
Now, robots are much smarter than you might imagine. On March 9 this year, AlphaGo, an artificial intelligence (AI, 人工智能) program made by Google's DeepMind, challenged top professional Go player Lee Sedol from South Korea. And AlphaGo beat Lee at last.
AI is when computers or computer software is able to have intelligent behavior, such as thinking or acting like a human. In our daily lives, we already use AI in many ways, like Apple's Siri and search engines like Baidu and Google.
Some people may worry whether computers are now smart enough to beat us at everything. But experts say that is not the case. Real life problems can be more difficult than the Go game. For example, humans can watch a person throw down a cup of coffee and know that the result will be a mess on the floor. A computer program would have to know the size of the cup, the height of the cup from the floor and many other things to find out the result. But we never know what will happen in the future.
【1】The underlined word “clumsy” in the first paragraph means ________.
A. 敏捷的 B. 结实的 C. 笨拙的 D. 呆傻的
【2】Atlas was created mainly to ________.
A. help the disabled people B. show the development of technology
C. help people do simple jobs D. work in dangerous places for humans
【3】In Paragraph 2, the writer mentioned the game between AlphaGo and Lee Sedol to ________.
A. explain how smart robots are B. introduce the development of robots
C. show the game was very exciting D. tell us how robots beat humans in the game
【4】The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refers to “________”.
A. AI is already used in many ways B. AI can think and act like a human
C. AlphaGo beat Lee Sedol in the Go game D. Computers can beat humans at everything
【5】From the passage, we can infer(推断) ________.
A. humans will have to follow robots' orders
B. it's difficult for robots to take human's place
C. robots will be just as common as mobile phones
D. people will depend on their robots to do all the things
