AWhen it comes to judgment of their bodies,women can’t win.People often make“fat jokes”,but fat-shaming is no laughing matter;neither is fit-shaming.I spoke to two women who were shamed for being fat,and then,after losing weight,shamed for being fit.Sarah Moore is a29-year-old mother of three from Indiana,US.She became a personal trainer after losing more than45kg.She remembers the fat-shaming she bore before her weight loss.When waiting to get on a roller coaster once,people behind her were complaining about the wait,and the attendant(服务人员)told them,“Don’t worry.She’s not going to fit on here,and you’ll be next.”But after losing weight,Moore said people commented on her body even more.“Now I get comments like,‘Are you sure you can eat that?’because they’re worried I’ll regain the weight,”she said.How does it make her feel?“Fat-shaming made me feel sad and helpless,and fit-shaming makes me angry,”she said.Changes in body weight can also influence relationships.It can upset the balance because others can get jealous.People who lose weight can experience personality changes,such as an increase in confidence,which also influences relationships.Fit-shaming has been harder to handle for Andrea Sereda,a38-year-old social worker in Canada.She said judgment of her body is something she’s faced for years.Sereda said that when she was9,her grandfather told her at a birthday party,“I don’t think you should eat cake,”and made comments about how many calories each bite contained as she ate it.She also experienced similar things in college.The judgment of Sereda’s body increased after she lost57kg.“It’s worse with people who knew me from before,”Sereda said.“People constantly say,‘You’re so skinny now you’re going to disappear.’”It was mostly friends making such comments.Closer friends seemed to compare their own bodies negatively to Sereda’s new physique(体型).“I was afraid of going out and having to field all these comments,”Sereda said.“I had to learn how to handle it.”Let us try to understand that just because someone has lost weight,it doesn’t make them fair game for commentary on their new shape.Everyone deserves to live free of being body shamed,regardless of how they look.21.Sarah Moore is shamed for being fit after losing weight mainly because________.A.people still judge her new body shapeB.she lost too much weight after her dietC.her personality changed for the betterD.people are all jealous of her new look22.The example of Andrea Sereda is used to________.A.explain what pushes women to lose weightB.show the negative effects of fit shamingC.suggest what can be done to handle fat shamingD.show the difficulties overweight women face23.What would be a proper way to treat those who have lost weight?A.To appreciate their new body shape.B.To stop commenting on their physique.C.To encourage them to maintain their shape.D.To remind them to be careful with their diet.BI’m Jeff Logan,president of Logan Luxury Theaters Corporation.I’m very sorry to tell you many cinemas are at risk of closing permanently(永久).That’s something we would hate to see happen.Watching the newest box office movie and eating a big bucket of popcorn is an experience that many of us have enjoyed for a very long time.We all have fond memories of going to a theater of our first dates or the first movie we saw with our children.A movie theater is so important to the fabric of the local community.It’s a place where we all gather,no matter what our interests,and no matter what ages,young and old,rich and poor.But how much longer will classic theaters remain open?Just like other industries,movie theaters have been hit hard by the pandemic(流行病）and are going dark.The entire industry is being controlled by the pandemic,because the studios don’t want to release their new movies until all the theaters can be open.As we all know,the theaters can’t do well and can’t get back to full7-day a week at full speed operation without new movies to play.Recently,the Logan Luxury5Cinema in Mitchell reopened for the weekends.However,like manytheaters,it is only operating at about10percent capacity.Since opening,several new safety measures have been put in place.Block off every other row.People are asked to leave three seats between them and the next group.Staff spray the theater with disinfectant(消毒剂）after every show.And sanitizer stations can be found throughout the theater.Even so,some people still aren’t comfortable going to a movie theater yet.I fully understand that.Anyhow, Ijust hope we must do something else to help out our local theaters,like taking part in a new national proposal called“Save Your Cinema.”1.What does the underlined word"fabric"in paragraph4refer to?A.Typical feature.B.Basic structure.C.Public support.mon vision.2.Why are the film studios unwilling to release the new movies?A.Cinemas don’toperate normally.B.New movies aren’t welcomed.C.People don’t like goingto cinema.D.Many cinemas go out of business.3.What can we infer about the Logan Luxury5Cinema after its reopening?A.It makes a lot of money.B.It does well in disease prevention.C.It receives a large audience every day.D.It offers more enjoyable experience.4.What is the purpose of this text?A.To share the good old days.B.To explain a social problem.C.To ask for people’s help.D.To recommend a theater.CTo move visual technology into the future,sometimes it helps to make a little noise.Researchers have used sound waves to produce floating3-D images,create a sense of touch and even supply a soundtrack.Since the1940s,scientists have toyed with the concept of acoustic levitation(声悬浮),the use of soundwave vibrations to trap tiny things in midair.The technology has gained greater capabilities in the past decade.Some researchers believe this improvement could lead to applications such as contributing to novel 3-D printing methods,or creating displays that would be visible from any angle without requiring a screen.Other researchers have also worked on visual displays that use acoustic levitation.In addition to visuals, the system can also produce audible noise to give the display a soundtrack.And the ultrasound speakers canalso concentrate vibrations in one spot so that a finger might feel a sense pushing back—a little like the object shown by the floating image is really there.Soundwaves create a3-D display!Display without a screen is remarkably useful.It means that everybody in the room can see the image—any angle,location—and that’s extremely helpful.As a communications system,such a display might one day allow users to chat with a3-D projection(投影)of a person who can turn his or her head to follow as they move around a room.The display will require a lot more work before you can install it in your living room,however.So far, this has been done in the research laboratory.We need to push it a little bit harder.We need to do more analysis to see if it would make sense to create a real display that people would have at home.The current system can only show simple graphics,such as a smiley face or figure eight,in real time.Still,we are optimistic about the potential for this type of technology.If the system had only one speaker-covered surface instead of two,it could generate images that are bigger than the device itself.We can’t make a TV image that’s bigger than the TV—even a projector has to have a projection screen that’s bigger than the image itself.But with a volumetric(容积的)display,a small,portable device might produce a much larger picture.We can imagine,in the future,having volumetric displays in watches,for example,that create large images that just project out of your watch.5.From the first two paragraphs soundwave vibrations can be used to_.A.catch very small objectsin midairB.develop3-D printer’s capabilitiesC.replace a creative display screenpose soundtracks by making no noise6.What do we know about display without a screen?A.It has resulted in visual technology.B.It is possible to see the image from any direction.C.It is already ripe to create a real one at home.D.It has yet to be tested in the research laboratory.7.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A.Outlooks for thenew technology.B.Situations of the modern technology.C.Praise for the cutting-edge technology.D.Room for the technicalimprovement.8.What can be a suitable title for the passage?A.Hearing Is Seeing—Sound Waves Create a3-D DisplayB.Seeing is Believing—3-D Printing MethodsArriveC.Advancing Sense of Touch—3-D Images Float in theAirD.Promoting TV Technology—Chat with3-D ProjectionsDOne morning,when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams,he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible insect.He lay on his armor-like back,and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly,slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections.The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment.His many legs,pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.“What’s happened to me?”he thought.It wasn’t a dream.His room,a proper human room although a little too small,lay peacefully between its four familiar walls.A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the table—Samsa was a travelling salesman—and above it there hung a picture that he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and housed in a nice,gilded frame.It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and fur scarf who sat upright,raising a heavy fur muff（暖手筒）that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer.Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather.Drops of rain could be heard hitting the window,which made him feel quite sad.“How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense,”he thought,but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right,and in his present state couldn’t get into that position.However hard he threw himself onto his right,he always rolled back to where he was.He must have tried it a hundred times,shut his eyes so that he wouldn’t have to look at the floundering legs,and only stopped when he began to feel a mild,dull pain there that he had never felt before.He thought,“What a heavy career it is that I’ve chosen!Travelling day in and day out.Doing business like this takes much more effort than doing your own business at home,and on top of that there's the curse of travelling,worries about making train connections,bad and irregular food,contact with different people all the time so that you can never get to know anyone or become friendly with them.”He felt a slight itch up on his belly;pushed himself slowly up on his back towards the headboard so that he could lift his head better; found where the itch was,and saw that it was covered with lots of little white spots which he didn’t know what to make of;and when he tried to feel the place with one of his legs he drew it quickly back because assoon as he touched it he was overcome by a cold tremble.He slid back into his former position.“Getting up early all the time,”he thought,“it makes you stupid. You’ve got to get enough sleep.Other travelling salesmen live a life of luxury.For instance,whenever I go back to the guest house during the morning to copy out the contract,these gentlemen are always still sitting there eating their breakfasts.I ought to just try that with my boss;I’d get kicked out on the spot.But who knows,maybe that would be the best thing for me.If I didn’t have my parents to think about I’d have given in my notice a long time ago,I’d have gone up to the boss and told him just what I think,tell him everything I would,let him know just what I feel.He’d fall right off his desk!And it’s a funny sort of business to be sitting up there at your desk,talking down at your inferiors from up there,especially when you have to go right up close because the boss is hard of hearing.Well,there’s still some hope;once I’ve got the money together to pay off my parents’debt to him—another five or six years I suppose—that’s definitely what I’ll do.That’s when I’ll make the big change.First of all though,I’ve got to get up,my train leaves at five.”9.According to the passage,Gregor initially believes his transformation is a.A.curseB.diseaseC.nightmareD.fraud10.The author most likely includes a description of Gregor’s itch in paragraph4to.A.remind the reader that Gregor has already turned into an insectB.stress the disconnection between Gregors’thoughts and his actual situationC.present important details about what Gregor’s new body lookslikeD.show that Gregor’s thoughts are focused on the changes tohis body11.The passage most strongly suggests which of the following about Gregor’s attitude toward his profession?A.He is angry.B.He is eager to please.C.He is depressed.D.He is diligent.12.The main rhetorical（修辞的）effect of the final sentence of the excerpt(“First of all though,I've got to get up, my train leaves at five”)is to.A.provide a solution to the conflict Gregor facesB.foretell the conflict between Gregor and his bossB.illustrate Gregor’s flexibility and ability to move on D.emphasize Gregor’s extreme sense of duty第二节：（共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
