26、It's generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes .They recycle their garbage because the care about the environment .They pay $5 for a caramel brulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.
It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions (性情), but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are, as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bem , by observing our own behavior .We can be strangers to ourselves .If we knew our own minds, why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our minds were an open book, we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes .Actually , we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.
Moreover, we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character—we infer characters that weren't there before .Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us, which we fail to recognize .Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't .Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us .We should not mistakenly believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.
Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make, people become what they do, though it may not be in compliance (符合) with their true desires .Therefore , we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice: “We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”

27、Researchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger’s personality simply by looking at the person’s shoes.
“Shoes convey a thin but useful slice of information about their wearers,” the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality. “Shoes serve a practical purpose, and also serve as nonverbal indications with symbolic messages. People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear.”
Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits detected in the study include a person’s general age, their gender, income, political affiliation(派别), and other personality characteristics, including someone’s emotional stability.
Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color and condition of someone’s shoes. In the study, 63 University of Kansas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study’s participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire.
So, what do your shoes say about your personality?
Some of the results were expected: People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes, and flashier footwear was typically worn by extroverts(外向者).
However, some of the more specific results are interesting. For example, “practical and functional” shoes were generally worn by more “agreeable” people, while ankle boots were more closely aligned with “aggressive” personalities.
The strangest of all may be that those who wore “uncomfortable looking” shoes tend to have “calm” personalities.
And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take exceptional care of them, you may suffer from “attachment anxiety”, spending a large amount of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance. There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal types wearing “shabbier and less expensive” shoes.
The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personality traits, but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were revealing deep insights into their personalities.
【1】We can infer from Paragraph 2 that___________.
A. shoes are vital to their wearers
B. a practical purpose is to wear shoes
C. people want to buy new shoes they pay attention to
D. shoes may give away their wearers’ information
【2】Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A. People with high incomes probably wear expensive shoes.
B. Ankle boots are closely aligned with “aggressive” personalities．
C. People wearing “uncomfortable looking” shoes tend to be calm
D. People who wear practical and functional shoes may be hard to deal with
【3】The underlined word “attachment anxiety”, probably means ___________.
A. Attached happiness to one’s personality.
B. Feeling always worried about everything.
C. Often feeling worried about his or her appearance.
D. Wasting an inordinate amount of time.
【4】Which might be the best title for the passage?
A. Bad Shoes, Bad Personality.
B. People Are What They Wear.
C. How To Choose Suitable Shoes
D. Shoes Reflect A Person’s Personalities.

29、TikTok has appeared as a major starter of food trends — from mushroom coffee and pancake cereal to cloud bread. But there’s another trend dominating TikTok that’s become bigger than any of these viral recipes. That’s the #whatieatinaday trend, which is nearing 9 billion views. These video food diaries are also popular on Instagram — typically featuring a wellness influencer or celebrity showing their foods they ate that day — often with a full-length yoga clothes mirror selfie.
The basic message these posts send is that if you eat like them, then you can eventually look like them. The posts are promoting the idea of a perfect or ideal day of eating, along with a perfect body size.
“Younger audience, especially girls and young women, accept the message that they must eat like these creators in order to achieve and maintain not only health, but also social attraction,” says Cara Harbstreet. “The biggest harm I see with this trend is that it normalizes disordered or restrictive eating behaviors. This could prevent someone struggling with an eating disorder from seeking and receiving support or treatment.”
Even if the #whatieatinaday posts are displaying a balanced day of eating, the message of “eat like me, and you will look like me" is harmful because people would not necessarily achieve the same body size as the Instagrammer even if they copied their day of eating bite for bite.
Rather than a day’s worth of food, many experts suggest posting a single meal instead. Rachael Hartley said an individual meal or recipe could serve as an idea or inspiration versus a full day of eating to copy.
“I occasionally share #whyIateWednesday posts, with the aim of showing a wide range of foods, including fast food, desserts, convenience foods and other foods that diet culture might dislike, as well as showing how to include nutrition in a gentle way,” she said.
Rumsey says diet culture has changed our sense of how much is “normal” to eat at meals or snacks, so it can be helpful to see a full meal that shows a variety of foods.
【1】What does the author try to explain in Paragraph 1?
A．What trend is popular in social networking sites.
B．What role TikTok plays in food diaries.
C．What foods are posted on Instagram.
D．What wellness influencers show on TikTok.
【2】Why does Cara consider the #whatieatinaday harmful?
A．Because it asks people to eat the same food.
B．Because it makes disordered eating behaviors normal.
C．Because it prevents people from achieving the same body size.
D．Because it doesn’t promote a perfect day of eating.
【3】What do eating experts suggest posting?
A．Diet culture.
B．A week’s worth of food.
C．One meal at a time.
D．A day’s worth of food.
【4】What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A．To recommend some famous eating posts.
B．To teach how to share food on TikTok.
C．To explore the causes of disordered eating behaviors.
D．To explain the dangers of video food diaries, such as from the #whatieatinaday.

The Girl No One Talked to
Last year there was a girl at our school who hardly anyone talked to. I think it was because she seldom showered, so she kind of smelled bad. Her name was Cindy Lindburg. I didn't know exactly where she lived, but it must have been somewhere in the neighborhood because we always got on the school bus at the same bus stop.
Cindy Lindburg didn't have many friends. She always came to the lunch room alone and left alone. On the bus, no one offered her a seat, and she never asked because she was sort of a shy person. She seemed like a nice girl—who had an odor problem.
One day, I was walking up to the bus stop and I saw Carl Littleton making fun of her. I couldn't hear what he was saying, but I saw the way he was laughing and rolling his eyes in his typical poking-fun-at-you way. I also saw how sad it made Cindy. Clutching her notebook to her chest like a shield, she stared at the ground and moved as far away from him as possible without leaving the bus stop entirely. As soon as I got close enough, I glared at Carl to make him stop laughing-even though I knew he probably wouldn't. He didn't. So I walked over and stood closer to Cindy so she wouldn't feel so bad. It was just one of those times when you knew someone needed someone to be a friend.
I didn't think she'd say anything, but she did. Her eyes peeked up from staring at the ground and as though she thought I'd be embarrassed if anyone heard her speak to me, she whispered, “Hi.”
“Hi,” I said. Then as loudly as I could, I said, “Don't pay any attention to Carl. His parents have been unsuccessful in teaching him some manners.” Seeing she had company, Carl left.
The comment didn't even rouse a smile out of Cindy.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
She looked up, studying my face to check if I was making fun of her.
