22、What’s the difference between shame and guilt?These are emotions that we often mix up, but it turns out they’re quite different. When people feel shame, they feel bad about themselves: “I’m a bad person for having done this.” When people feel guilt, they feel bad not about the self, but about a specific behavior: “I did a bad thing.” And it’s a subtle distinction, but it turns out that it leads to very different motivations.
When people feel shame about “Who I am because I did a bad thing, I’m a horrible person,” there’s a sense of shrinking and being small, a sense of worthlessness and powerlessness. And when people feel shame, they want to hide. They want to sink into the floor and disappear. They minimize. They often blame other people. But what they don’t do, typically, is try to make things better.
When people feel guilt about a specific behavior —“I feel bad that I did that” — they’re focused on the behavior and the effects on other people, and that seems to push people in a much more constructive direction. People who feel guilt about a behavior without feeling shame about themselves are more likely to apologize, in some way, try to repair the harm that was done.
I think that just knowing the difference between the two is not enough, if you can identify when you feel shame and sort of do some double-checking, you know, “Is it really fair for me to feel like a bad person because I lost my temper with my kids today? Does that mean I’m a horrible parent? Or am I generally a good parent, but this was a bad day, and I did a bad thing and let me address that, reconnect with my child and think about ways to avoid that going forward,” instead of falling into shame, shame, shame. I think shame is such a selfish emotion. It’s all about me. It’s not about the person that I hurt. It’s, “Me, me, me, me, I’m a horrible person,” which takes the focus off of the person you’ve harmed.
【1】What are shame and guilt thought of?
A．They are easy to figure out.
B．They lead to different behavior.
C．They are called bad emotions.
D．They are seen confusing things.
【2】What will people do when they feel shame?
A．They dare to face anything.
B．They refuse to make things better.
C．They feel bad about specific behavior.
D．They tend to blame themselves.
【3】What does the third paragraph mainly talk about ?
A．Results of feeling guilt.
B．Ways of feeling guilt.
C．Causes of feeling guilt.
D．Reflections of feeling guilt.
【4】What is the author’s attitude to shame?

23、Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, the aged, and children who have lost their parents, but also friends, workmates, relatives and neighbors whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.
Over 60 years ago, when a Cleveland man noticed that some people, such as children who lost their parents and patients who lay in bed, too often felt forgotten and neglected, he developed in his mind the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this by giving them small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he gave those people small gifts on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to take part in the celebration, which came to be called "Sweetest Day". Over time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor, the sick and children who had lost their parents was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift. Soon the idea spread to other cities all over the USA.
Sweetest Day is not based on any single group’s religious beliefs or on a family relationship. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning. Because for many people remembering takes the form of gift giving, Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care, in a positive way.
【1】What group of people is the Sweetest Day intended for?
A．The sick.
B．The aged.
C．The orphans.
D．All the people.
【2】Which of the following sentence can express the underlined word “neglected”?
A．Ignored.
B．Forgotten.
C．Remembered.
D．Loved.
【3】Why did the man think about the idea of Sweetest Day?
A．He felt lonely and wanted to be noticed.
B．He wanted to be helpful to those who need love.
C．He needed someone to give out some small gifts.
D．He was helped by his friends and neighbors.
【4】What can we know from the passage?
A．A gift is always needed on Sweetest Day.
B．Only those sick and children need to be remembered.
C．Sweetest Day is limited to families and friends.
D．It's a chance for everyone to express your care.
24、 Having been a middle school teacher for 25 years, I like to think that I've taught students the importance of good citizenship. But regardless of what I like to think, it seems that my students teach me.
One morning, I was running so late that by the time I reached the last crossing before my school, traffic was at a standstill. What was really exasperating was that I could see the school. Had I been able to climb out of my car and walk, I might have arrived on time.
Up ahead, the turn lane (车道) into the school's parking lot was empty. If I could just turn to the right, the only thing between me and the turn lane was a large field. It was rocky, and the grass was quite tall. But as I sat in my motionless car and saw all those car lights flashing (闪烁) at me, I heard that field call to me. I nosed the car out of the line of traffic and headed for that open land. Evidently there was a law. And evidently I had broken it. An officer came up to my open window, and I handed him my license (执照) without even looking at him.
He asked, "Ma'am? What's going on? "
I said, "Well, I overslept, and... I just wanted to get to school. I have to..."
"So you're a teacher?" he interrupted.
"Yes, I try...and… just needed to be on time."
I heard the police officer say it again: "You wanted to be on time because you're a good teacher."
At that point he paused before adding, "You were when I had you."
And then I did look at him. I read the name badge (名字牌) on his chest. A former seventh-grade student of mine.
He gave me a warning—not too dissimilar from the ones I'd given him years ago—and sent me on my way. And at last I arrived at my classroom, already schooled once that morning and wondering what I would learn next.
【1】What does the underlined word "exasperating" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．Exciting.
B．Satisfying.
C．Surprising.
D．Discouraging.
【2】What did the author do when she was stuck in traffic?
A．She called the police to help her.
B．She took a shortcut to avoid traffic.
C．She left her car and walked to school.
D．She waited patiently in her car all along.
【3】What did the police officer do?
A．He guided the author out of the traffic.
B．He took the author to the police station.
C．He warned the author about breaking the rules.
D．He turned a blind eye to the author's behavior.
【4】What can we learn about the author?
A．She learned a lesson from her student.
B．She didn't recognize the police officer at all.
C．She wasn't allowed to leave by the police officer.
D．She asked the police officer to bend the rules for her.
