21、In the workplace, one of the most important skills to possess is good communication. Employers value employees who can communicate effectively. 【1】 While listening and speaking are important in effective communication, there are other skills that are vital to good communication in the workplace.
Having empathy is very useful in communication. Empathy involves seeing things from the perspective of others. 【2】 While this may be difficult for some, empathizing with others can be very helpful to keep in tune with your own emotions and ideas.
Equally beneficial is being aware of others and their emotions in communication, which means being sympathetic to misfortunes and praising positive milestones. 【3】 Getting to know co-workers on a first-name basis and holding meaningful conversations through the work week create a better and more productive work environment.
【4】 Maintaining an active, friendly attitude lets co-workers consider you are open to hearing their opinions about projects or new designs. Be sure to maintain eye contact the majority of the time you are speaking with someone, and use hand gestures to help you leave a good impression on others. Smiling is incredibly dynamic and creates a noticeable difference. Smile and you are more regarded as more approachable and trustworthy.
While many of these good communication skills occur naturally in individuals, some may need to be learned and practiced in order to become second nature. Many people earn a Master of Arts in Dispute Resolution, an M.A. degree in Marriage and Family Therapy or a Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work. 【5】
A．Body language can create harmonious atmosphere in communication.
B．Being sympathetic and inspirational is essential in communicating with others.
C．Body language can have a huge influence on how other people perceive you.
D．It means their being able to listen to others and successfully voicing their own ideas.
E．To achieve this successfully, you need to know what is going on in other people’s lives.
F．Put yourself in the other person’s position instead of being judgmental or biased by your own beliefs.
G．They can directly apply these good communication skills into the workplace and become highly desired by their employers.
22、D
Eating too much fatty food, exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease．But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately: the air you breathe.
Previous studies have linked high exposure (暴露）to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problem, but two analyses(分析) now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke (中风）within as little as a few hours after exposure．In one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants (污染物）were up to 5% more likely（可能的） to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure．A separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U．S．Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of “moderate” (良好）quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.
The authors of both studies stress（强调）that these risks are relatively（相对的）small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure．However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices．So stricter regulation（规章制度）by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.
【1】The text mainly discusses the relationship between _______.
A．heart problems and air quality
B．heart problems and exercising
C．heart problems and smoking
D．heart problems and fatty food
【2】The underlined word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means_________ .
A．relatively high
B．extremely（极大地）low
C．relatively low
D．extremely high
【3】What can we learn from the text?
A．Eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart
B．The EPA conducted many studies on air quality
C．Moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking
D．Stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.
【4】The author's purpose of writing the text is most likely to________
A．inform
B．persuade（说服）
C．describe
D．entertain（娱乐）
23、Sandra Boynton, a children’s author, has in more recent years branched out into kids music. Her most recent album Hog Wild!, for example, features Samuel L. Jackson as a Tyrannosaurus Rex. She talked in an interview about how to tap into kids’ imaginations and how to make scary things less threatening for them.
In your years of writing and illustrating children’s books, have you noticed anything that really sparks a child’s imagination?
I think maybe there’s no basic difference between what fascinates a child and what fascinates the rest of us. We’re all drawn to things that wake us up, things that grab our attention through our hearing or our sight or our sense of touch. We’re curious about the world as it is, and we’re curious about what could be. Imagination follows curiosity pretty naturally.
It doesn’t feel to me like it’s been a long time that I’ve been drawing and writing things. It doesn’t feel like a short time, either. It just feels like what I do. I make things. I’m a permanent Kindergartner, I guess.
You often take a threatening figure like a Tyrannosaurus Rex or a monster and make him cute. Do you have any suggestions for how to make children less afraid of things?
Actually, I think kids kind of like being afraid of things, as long as someone’s calming is right there with reassurance. Hugging helps.
What have you learned about childhood from writing kids’ books?
Accessing childhood has actually never been that hard. It’s adulthood that’s still puzzling. I would guess that most children’s book writers are that way. I’m really writing books and making music for my own child-self. But I’m certainly delighted and grateful that my books work for people other than just me. It keeps me from having to find an actual job.
A lot of authors are worried that children spend too much time on digital devices rather than with books, but you seem to have embraced it. Why?
When the interactive book app universe was new, I was, as a creator of things, curious. My background is theater, and I thought it could be interesting to try to figure out how to create content that’s both theater-like and book-like. I found a superb partner in this, the insanely ingenious Loud Crow Interactive in Vancouver. We worked intensively together for a couple of years and made five very cool apps. I’m proud of them. But now, having too often seen very young kids sitting idly, staring at screens, I have my doubts.
【1】What does Sandra Boynton think about imagination?
A．It fascinates both adults and children.
B．It can be waken up by attention to senses.
C．It can be naturally aroused out of curiosity.
D．It lasts for long in a permanent kindergartner.
【2】From the passage, we can infer that Sandra ________ when writing children’s books.
A．finds herself confused about remembering childhood
B．agrees with other book writers that writing is hard
C．puts herself in a child’s place and thinks like a child
D．is delighted that she doesn’t need to find another job
【3】Sandra thinks the apps she made with her partner were cool because they were ________.
A．new ways to increase interactions between users
B．interactive by combining theatre and book
C．beneficial with the content based on the original book
D．created by an insanely ingenious expert and friend
【4】We can conclude from the interview that ________.
A．Sandra is good at making a threatening figure cute
B．kids are always calm instead of being afraid of things
C．digital devices have been embraced by most of the authors
D．there were no interactive book apps before Sandra’s apps
24、Digital technology — email and smart phones especially—have vastly improved workers' ability to be productive outside of a traditional office. Even so, most white-collar work still happens in an office. One reason is that, according to findings of a new survey (调查) of office workers conducted by Wakefield Research for the IT company Citrix, most bosses are doubtful about remote working. Half of the workers say their boss doesn't accept it, and only 35 percent say it's tolerated.
Skeptical bosses will likely have their doubts reinforced (加深) by the same survey, which shows that 43 percent of workers say they've watched TV or a movie while “working” remotely, while 35 percent have done housework，and 28 percent have cooked dinner.
It is true, however, that working at home makes people much more efficient (高效的), because it allows workers to take care of annoying housework while still getting their jobs done. It’s much faster, for example, to shop for groceries at a quarter to three than to stand in line during the after-work rush.
The fact that such practices remain officially unaccepted reflects how far we haven't come as a society from the days when we expected every full-time worker to be supported by a full-time homemaker.
More broadly the Wakefield survey suggests that employers may be missing a low-cost way to give workers something of value. Sixty-four percent of those survey participants who haven't worked remotely would rather give up some bonus in order to get even one day a week working from home. Under such circumstances, smart firms need to find ways to let their employees have enough ability to change or be changed easily to suit a different situation to manage their time efficiently.
【1】Why do some employers hesitate to allow remote working?
A. They are used to face-to-face communication.
B. They want to stick to their routine practice.
C. They have little trust in modem technology.
D. They fear losing control of their workers.
【2】What seems to be most workers' attitude toward remote working?
A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Reserved. D. Disapproving.
【3】What does the author suggest smart firms do?
A. Shorten their office hours.
B. Give employees a pay raise.
C. Adopt flexible work patterns.
D. Reduce their staff’s workload.
25、 This is Warsaw, where lunch is usually a slab of meat with a side order of sausage. But at Krowarzywa — which means “cow alive” and _______ the word warzywa, meaning vegetables — no animals were harmed in the making of food. The bestselling “vegan pastrami” is made of seitan, a wheat-based meat _______.
Warsaw has almost 50 vegan restaurants. That does not mean it has all that many vegans. Kassia, a 20-something professional in the queue, says she has no ethical _______ to eating meat. She comes to Krowarzywa because she likes the food. Kornel Kisala, the head chef, thinks that most of Krowarzywa’s clients eat meat, but it does not worry him. “Animals don’t _______ whether you eat a vegan burger because it is fashionable or because it is tasty.” According to the survey, 60% of people _______ say they plan to cut back on meat this year. Eating vegetarian and vegan meals now and then is one of the ways some choose to do so.
Two years ago Eric Schmidt, a Silicon Valley figure, called plant-based meat substitutes the world’s most important future technology, he foresaw them improving people’s health, reducing environmental degradation and making food more _______ for the poor. The founder of the first vegan society said in 1944 that “In time people will view with disgust the idea that men once fed on the products of animals’ bodies.” Ever since the number of people _______ his hope has been increasing. Perhaps their time is coming at last.
If so, it is a _______ coming. Meat consumption worldwide has been _______ consistently by almost 3% a year since 1960, mostly because people get richer. In the early 1970s the average Chinese person, __________, ate 14 kg (31lb) of meat a year. Now they eat 55 kg a year.
In America, Nielsen found in 2017 that 3% of the population called themselves vegans and 6% vegetarians(people who avoid meat, but eat eggs and/or dairy products). But more detailed research by Faunalytics puts the numbers at just 0.5% for vegans and 3. 4% for vegetarians. Fully a quarter of 25-to 34-year-olds in America claim to be either vegan or vegetarian, __________ studies by Faunalyties find the median age of American vegans to be 42. It seems that a fair amount of ambitious self-discipline, terminological inexactitude (术语的不准确) or simple hypocrisy (伪善) is at play.
Overall, though, it seems __________ to say that the number of people sometimes or regularly choosing to eat vegan food is growing much faster than the growth in people deeply __________ to a meat-free life. Patrice Bula, a vice president at Nestle, says that a __________ proportion of the people buying his company’s vegan meals are true vegetarians or vegans. People in this larger group are often called “flexible vegetarians”, who __________ back and forth between omnivorous (杂食的) and vegetable diets. The true vegan trend lies in casual, part time veganism.
