27、Yes, trying new things is exciting and mind-expanding and all that, but it can also be awkward and embarrassing. No one likes to feel embarrassed and incompetent.【1】 Here are a few ways to feel a little better about launching yourself into a new experience—and help you get over the part of that initial misery to the part where it’s actually fun.
First, we should know we’re born to be afraid of new experiences. From an evolutionary standpoint, trying new things, for much of human history, could have been dangerous. This means that deep in our brains there’s a primeval (原始的) fear of looking bad, a fear of not performing as well as others.【2】 It’s part of being human. Enjoyment will come as the newness fades.
Going in with the right mindset is also important. It’s good to have an end goal in mind.【3】 Maybe your new hobby is marathons, for example; running one in under four hours is a goal, sure, but getting in shape and meeting other runners are worthy outcomes, too.
【4】 Whatever you’re trying, doing a little preparation work beforehand can make your first time a lot less frightening. Want to try your hand at baking? Before you actually bust out the kitchen equipment, maybe watch a few tutorials and take a few minutes to look up all the terms you don’t know. Taking up golf?【5】 A baseline of knowledge will help you feel a little better the first time you try swinging a club.
A．And it is wise to prepare before you start.
B．Having an end goal will guide you through.
C．Practice playing golf beforehand is a good choice.
D．However, it helps to start with a beginner-friendly one.
E．It’s fine to read a book on the sport before you head to the golf course.
F．Unfortunately, it is unavoidable if beginners want to learn something new.
G．In other words, not loving it right away isn’t a sign that you’ve made a mistake.
28、My parents immigrated to the U.S. from Guangdong, a province in southern China. The jobs they found in hot kitchens and clothing factories came with long hours, leaving them no time to learn English. So I spent most of my childhood, in Brooklyn, speaking Cantonese, the only language my parents understand. But as I continued my education, I gradually, or deliberately avoided using Cantonese. And as a result, Cantonese avoided me. As it slips from my memory, I also lose my ability to communicate with my parents. For years I have to rely on translation apps and online dictionaries for most of our conversations.
Actually, we speak on the phone only once a week and the conversations are much the same: “Have you eaten yet?” my father asks in Cantonese. Long pause. “No, not yet. You?” I reply. “Why not? It’s so late, my mother cuts in. Long pause.” Remember to drink more water and wear a mask outside.” she continues. “OK. You too.” Longest pause. “We’ll stop bothering you, then.” At age thirty-two, I feel like someone they know instead of their daughter.
On my mom’s sixty-fourth birthday, at the peak of the pandemic, I became increasingly aware of the limited amount of time together. Did I really want to spend the rest of our lives with a language barrier between us? I made it a goal to relearn Cantonese, and, ultimately, rebuild the relationship with my parents. I take Cantonese classes. I watch Wong Kar-wai movies. I repeat Maggie Cheung’s words over and over until I get the tones just right. But, most of all, I call my parents and try to have more meaningful conversations with them, no matter how challenging it gets. Though Cantonese no longer feels natural for me to speak, it will always be my first language---even if it takes a lifetime for us to know each other.
【1】How does the author relearn Cantonese?
A．By asking her parents to teach her.
B．By using translation apps and dictionaries.
C．By reading Maggie Cheung’s books.
D．By taking classes and watching movies.
【2】What is the problem with the author and her parents?
A．They find nothing to communicate.
B．They speak different languages.
C．They grew up in different cultures.
D．They know too much about each other.
【3】What can we learn from the author’s experience?
A．Language matters in communication.
B．Cantonese counts more than English.
C．It’s never too late to learn a language.
D．Call your parents before it’s too late.
29、Maybe you have heard the expression—when in Rome, do as the Romans do. So when you want to do business in France, you have to get to know French culture, to make marketing plans, and to run your business by local laws.
【1】 The French take great pride in their language, so anyone who does not speak it may run the risk of being disrespected by his French colleagues or business partners. Also, another reason why learning French is important is that it is a great way to show every possible French business partner that you care and respect their country's culture and language.
The first thing you should do when meeting someone new is to shake his hand firmly and always look the person in the eye. In social meeting with friends, kissing is common.
Use first names only after being invited to. 【2】 The French will sometimes introduce themselves using their surname first, followed by their first name.
Dress well. 【3】 Your business clothing is a reflection of your success and social status. Always try to be tasteful and stylish. Women are advised to dress simply but elegantly. Wearing make-up is practised widely by businesswomen.
The French are passionate about food, so lunches are common in doing business in France, which usually consist of an appetizer (开胃菜), a main meal with wine, cheese, dessert and coffee, and normally take up to two hours. 【4】
Do not begin eating until the host says “bon appetite”. Pass dishes to the left, keep wrists above the table and try to eat everything on the plate. 【5】 This may suggest that you find the food tasteless. If eating in a restaurant, the person who invites always pays.
A．The French draw information about people based on their appearance.
B．This is a time for relationship building.
C．Remember to be as polite as possible.
D．Language should be the focus of anyone planning to do business in France.
E．Be careful with adding salt, pepper or sauces to your food.
F．Use Monsieur or Madame before the surname.
G．Make an appointment with your business partner in advance.

31、课文填空
New ideas and values gradually replaced old ones from the Middle Ages. As a result, painters concentrated less on religious themes. They began to adopt a more 【1】attitude to life.
