21、Have you ever received a gift that was so clearly not your taste that you wondered if perhaps it had been handed to you by mistake? Worse, have you ever given a present and watched your friend look as though she had opened the wrong box? Maybe she responded with a polite "Why, thank you," but you knew you had missed the mark. Why do presents sometimes go wrong? And what do your choices (good and bad） reflect about your personal qualities?
Choosing the right gift is an art, I believe. It calls for empathy — the ability to put yourself into someone else's head and heart .We're all able to do this; in fact, we're born with a kind of natural empathy. After the earliest period of childhood, however, it needs to be reinforced (加强）—by our parents, teachers, friends. When it isn't, we're not able to understand other people's feelings as sharply. This can show in the gifts we select, and so can many other emotional (情感的） qualities.
Think back to the presents you’ve given over the past year, the time and effort you put into your selection, how much you spent, your thoughts while you were shopping, and your feelings when the receiver opened the package. Keep in mind that what you choose displays your inner world. Of course, you may express yourself differently with different friends, relatives, and other people you know.
We live in a society where exchanging presents is an important part of communication. Ignoring the tradition won't make it go away. If you really dislike such a tradition, tell your friends ahead of time.
【1】The underlined expression "you had missed the mark" means "you had failed to _____'.
A．get the expected effect
B．keep your friendship
C．receive a present in return
D．make her feel better
【2】Which of the following is the main idea of the second paragraph?
A．Natural empathy needs to be reinforced.
B．Choosing gifts requires one to understand the receivers.
C．Selecting the right gift is an ability people are born with.
D．Emotional changes influence one's choice of gifts.
【3】In the third paragraph, the author tells us that________.
A．attention should be paid to the receivers' responses
B．one learns from what he did in the past
C．the choice of gifts reflects one's emotional qualities
D．one should spend more time choosing gifts
【4】The best possible title for this passage is “_______”.
A．Ways of Choosing Gifts
B．An Important Tradition
C．Exchanging Presents
D．Message in a Gift
22、 A 2015 survey found that two out of three U.S. teens owned an iPhone. For this reason, I call them iGen, and as I explain in my new book “iGen: Why Today’s Super-Connected Kids are Growing up Less Rebellious(反叛的), More Tolerant, Less Happy-and Completely Unprepared for Adulthood,”【1】.
What makes iGen different? 【2】. They spend so much time on the internet, texting friends and on social media—in the large surveys I analyzed for the book, an average of about six hours per day—that they have less leisure time for everything else.
That includes what was once the favorite activity of most teens:【3】. Whether it’s going to parties, shopping at the mall, watching movies or aimlessly driving around, iGen teens are participating in these social activities at a significantly lower rate than previous generations.
【4】: In the annual Monitoring the Future survey, the percentage of high school seniors who read a nonrequired book or magazine nearly every day dropped from 60 percent in 1980 to only 16 percent in 2015.
This isn’t to say that iGen teens don’t have a lot going for them. 【5】 . They also seem to have a stronger work ethic and more realistic expectations than millennials(千禧一代) did at the same age.
To be clear, moderate smartphone and social media use—up to an hour a day—is not linked to mental health issues. However, most teens (and adults) are on their phones much more than that.
A.spending most of their free time on screens
B.hanging out with their friends
C.They would rather see their friends in person than communicate with them using their phones
D.Growing up with a smartphone has affected nearly every aspect of their lives
E.They are physically safer and more tolerant than previous generations were
F.They’re the first generation to spend their adolescence with a smartphone
G.In addition, iGen reads books, magazines and newspapers much less than previous generations did as teens
23、How many times a day do you check your email? When you wake up? Before bed? A dozen limes in between? The technology that was supposed to make our lives simple has taken up too much time. The average teen spends more than seven hours a day using technological devices, with an additional hour just text-messaging friends.
The advantage of technological devices is connectedness. Email lets us respond on the go, and we are in touch with more people during more hours of the day than at any other time in history. But is it possible that we’re lonelier than ever, too? That’s what MIT professor Sherry Turkle observes in her new book, Alone Together, which clearly describes our changing relationship with technology.
For Turkic, the biggest worry is the effect the weak connections have on our development. Technology isn’t offering us the lives we want to live. “We’re texting people at a distance” says Turkic. “We’re using lifeless objects to convince ourselves that even when we’re alone, we feel together. And then when we’re with each other, we put ourselves in situations where we are alone—always on our mobile devices. It’s what I call a perfect storm of confusion about what’s important in our human connections.”
Moreover, communicating online is not equal to face-to-face communication. Online, you can ignore others’ feelings. In a text message, you can avoid eye contact A number of studies have found that this generation of young people is sympathetic (有同情心的) than ever. “That doesn’t lead to disaster,” says Turkle, “but the disadvantages still cannot be ignored.”
【1】From the first paragraph we can learn that .
A. Email checking helps people wake up early
B. People communicate mainly by text-messaging now
C. Technological device production has been simplified
D. Using technological devices costs young men much time
【2】What is Sherry Turkic’s biggest worry?
A. Technology may make human connections confusing.
B. Technology can’t help people remove loneliness.
C. Technology may make people’s lives hard.
D. Technology keeps people together.
【3】What is the author’s attitude towards the influence of technology on people’s life?
A. Positive B. Negative
C. Hopeless D. Uncertain
【4】What is the passage mainly about?
A. Technology brings many conveniences to people’s lives.
B. Young men spend too much time on technological devices.
C. Technology also brings people some disadvantages.
D. Sherry Turkle observes people’s changing relationship with Technology.
24、About 20 years ago, some 15,000 red pandas wandered the treetops of the Himalaya forests in South Asia. But with the large number of people entering their habitats, these shy and solitary (独处的) creatures can’t meet each other and reproduce. Now the population has declined by more than 50 percent.
To save the red pandas here, Lama and his research team need to know which parts of the forests the remaining pandas are living in. That’s where the tracking devices come in. “Mapping the path they travel will let us know which areas of the forest need to be reforested to connect the most red pandas to one another,” Lama says.
Because red pandas can be hard to spot and catch, no one had ever used GPS collars to study them in the wild. But Lama and his team had a great plan. They first would make sure the animals would be comfortable wearing the collars. So, they tested the collars on two red pandas in a local zoo. “We convinced them to let us measure their necks and fit them with the collars by letting them choose a reward—grapes, apples, or bananas.” Lama says.
Then came the next challenge: catching red pandas. Once they spotted a red panda, a team of vets set up a tall, fence-like tarp (油布) around the base of the tree with a box trap at the bottom. That way when the red panda climbed down the tree surrounded by the tarp, it had no choice but to enter the trap. It was then quickly controlled, collared and released.
From September to December 2019, the team trapped 10 red pandas — six females and four males. Their collars recorded their location every two hours and sent the information to researchers once a day. Over the next year, the team tracked the red pandas’ movements so that they identified where to plant new forests and helped red pandas meet more easily.
【1】What has led to the smaller number of red pandas in South Asia?
A．Their normal lives are badly disturbed.
B．They aren’t adapted to living in groups.
C．Their ability to reproduce is weakened.
D．They try to avoid meeting each other.
【2】Why did the research team track the movements of red pandas?
A．To study their living behaviors.
B．To protect them from hunters.
C．To know where to plant forests.
D．To find if they can often meet.
【3】How did the research team convince red pandas to wear collars?
A．By offering them treats.
B．By using traps.
C．By setting tarps.
D．By measuring their necks.
【4】What does this passage mainly talk about?
A．The research on red pandas’ reproduction.
B．The clever way to keep track of red pandas.
C．The shrinking population of red pandas.
D．The way of building habitats for red pandas.
