AWhen I was young, my parents always told me that I should never talk to strangers. This was part of a whole list of things I should never do: Never accept food or candy from strangers, never get in a car with strangers and so on.But if we didn’t start a conversation with strangers, we’d never make new friends. We’d never get a job. We may miss the joy that comes from talking with strangers. And the more people you know, the more chances you can get.The following passage offers you some advice on how to break the ice.Don’t just stare at your shoes. Go and say “Hi” to that new guy. It will be easier to break the ice if you know more about different cultures.British: Beautiful day, isn’t it?The weather in retain is changeable. So, it is one of the topics the British care most about. And there’s simple rule: Say “Yes”whether you agree with the person’s idea on the weather or not. That’s because the British start a conversation using the weather so that they can continue their talk.French: Where did you go on holiday?To talk with a French person, the safest way is to ask his or her last holiday. French students enjoy a 10-to-15-day holiday every two months. French employees get more than six weeks of holidays per year.American: So, where are you from?The US is so big and people move so often that location is always a source(来源)of talk. You can try to find a connection with the place they’re from. For example, if someone’s from Los Angeles, you could say: “Oh, I have a friend who studied there.”21.

According to a police report, when he arrived at the school, Fuller saw a group of students leaving the school gym, one of which he thought was his grandson. He got out of his car, approached the boy, gave him a hug and told him he was there to pick him up early. When he asked him if he was ready to go, the kid said “yes”. A teacher’s assistant later said that when he asked the boy “Is his your grandfather?” he also answered “yes”. So the two of them then went to the front office so the boy could be signed out,and since the grandpa was on the list of approved people to pick up kids, everything went nice.Once out of the school, Fuller and his fake(假的,冒牌的) grandson got in the car, where his wife was waiting for them. Without so much as turning around to look at the child, the woman handed him a MeDonald’s Happy Meal, and then they drove home. It was only when they arrived at their house that the Fullers finally realized that the boy was not their grandchild, after a missing tooth gave him away. “He had a tooth missing in the front, and I know my grandson did not have a tooth missing in the front,” Fuller said. “Immediately, I brought him back to school, and I am very sorry.”The police report mentions that the two boys “had similarities in haircut style (样式)and features (特色), but not in weight or height.”Also, the fake grandchild’s mother admitted that the “grandfather” looks like her father.Although everything got rectified in the end, the boy’s father didn’t find the whole mix-up funny. “If they didn’t bring him back, my son could have been gone,” Pressley said. “It’s gross negligence(重大过失)on the school’s part. I mean, you know, they have to prevent this from happening again.”25. What was the boy doing when the grandfather arrived at the school?A. He was playing with his classmates.B. He was leaving the school gym.C. He was talking with his teacher.D. He was studying in the classroom.26. What was the similarity(相似之处)between the two boys?A. Both of them had a tooth missing.B. They were the same height.C. Their voices were similar.D. They had the same haircut style.27. What was the boy’s father reaction(反应)to what happened?A. He thought it was funny.B. He tanked his father for bringing his son back.C. He blamed(责备)it on the school.D. He thought nothing of it.CResearchers found that a “name pronunciation effect”played an important role in how people were perceived(感知)by others. They concluded that the easier a person’s name was to say, the better their success was in the workplace and the quicker career advancement(提升) they enjoyed. Their study also found that a simple name improved people’s ability to make new friends.Dr. Simon Laham, who led the study, said people with simple names were generally judged more positively(积极地). “The effect is not because of the length of a name or how foreign-sounding or unusual it is, but rather how easy it is to pronounce,” he said.In their study the team studied the way names can influence a person’s impressions and decision making. They looked at lots of names of 500 university student volunteers from British, Asian, and European backgrounds and a field of 500 university student volunteers from British, Asian, an European backgrounds and a field of 500 lawyers in America. The team found that people with more pronounceable names were more likely to achieve success. They found that American lawyers with easier sounding names got career advancement faster within their law firms. Names including Sherman, Jenkins, Benson, and Angus ranked among the easiest to pronounce, while Farquharson and Loughnane and European names such as Leszczynska were found to be difficult to pronounce. They concluded that a simple name was the key to success.28. What factor of a name plays the key role in deciding its effect?A. The length of the name.B. The pronunciation of the name.C. The meaning of the name.D. Whether the name is unusual or not.29. The underlined part “pronounceable names” in Para. 3 refers to names that .A. can be pronounced without difficultyB. can’t be pronounced easilyC. sound like foreign nameD. can be spelled easily30. Which of the following would Dr. Laham most probably agree with?A. People should use simple names to avoid biases.B. Foreign names are considered to be hard to pronounce.C. The name effect can be found only in English-speaking countries.D. The study can help people treat those with hard-to-say names more faily.31. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Having n easy-to-say name will help you get quicker career advancement.B. People with hard-to-say names should struggle for fairer treatment.C. People with hard-to-say names should avoid unfair treatment from others.D. The importance of changing hard-to-say names to easy-to-say ones.DKeeping fish as pets is a popular hobby. Fish take up little room, are inexpensive to feed, and provide an interesting and colorful display in any room.A tank, or and aquarium(养鱼缸), must be chosen carefully. Many new aquarium owners buy too many fish for their tanks. Fish cannot be crowded. Two fish can live comfortably in each gallon of water, only ten fish can live in a five gallon tank. Can you see why a goldfish would not live long in tiny, round bowl?If too many fish are kept together, they will not have enough oxygen(氧气)or room to swim about freely. They will have more diseases. Also, some kinds of fish cannot be kept together. They will fight and may even kill on another. As your interest in fish grows, the number of fish you have may grow, too. Then you may want to invest in another tank.If you start with a ten-gallon aquarium, what kind of fish would be best? The two major groups of tropical(热带的)fish are those that lay eggs and those that give birth to live young. If you want to raise young fish, guppies (孔雀鱼)would be the best choice because they can produce many babies in a short time.You can buy fish and aquariums in most pet stores. Ask the owner to help you choose the right fish. You can also find many books about tropical fish in the library.32. Keeping fish is a good hobby for the following reasons EXCEPT .A. fish are not expensive to feedB. fish are nice to look atC. fish reproduce babies quicklyD. fish need little space33. The underlined part “invest in” (in Paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to .A. buyB. borrowC. makeD. sell34. If nine fish live in three gallons of water, the fish may .A. breathe easilyB. swim about freelyC. get illD. not get enough to eat35. What can we know from the passage?A. Very few people are interested in keeping fish.B. The size of your tank decides how many fish you can buy.C. Guppies are a kind of fish that are good at laying gees.D.
