I struggled a lot with my identity because, I viewed myself as an artist while others viewed me as ridiculous. To make matters more confusing, being a clown is itself an identity-masking job.One night, I was asked to play as Batman. At the time I had a giant mustache (胡子). But I didn’t want to change my physical appearance, because that would have been me admitting I was more of a clown than an artist. So I chose to keep it.The next day, I went to the party. Once I got close enough for the kids to make out the features of my face, the entire party burst into laughter. I was so embarrassed. But then came loud applause (掌声). Feeling kind of warm, I was thinking,“Is this what encouragement feels like? It’s so new.” I was still about 20 yards away from the party when I started running. They all started cheering louder, and at that moment, I was Batman.“You see, son. I told you Batman has a mustache.” said father of the birthday boy. I saw a huge Birthday cake with a frosting Batman drawn on it, and the Batman had a mustache. I looked at it in disbelief. That’s why everyone was laughing so hard when I first arrived, because when they brought the cake out, all the kids laughed, “Batman doesn’t have a mustache.”Instead of admitting the cake was messed up, the parents tried to save face and said,“No, Batman always has a mustache. He just shave it for his movies.”Naturally, the children were doubtful. But they were at the perfect age where they still believed in miracles. My mustache became the detail that proved what the parents had said was true and made the kids believe that I was actually Batman.That year, I struggled a lot with my identity: was I an artist, or was I a clown? But that day, at least, there was no doubt in my mind what I was. I may not have been the hero that they ordered, and I certainly was not the hero they expected. But that day, I was the hero thatthey needed.4．How did the author feel about his work as a clown at the beginning?A．He was bored with his job.B．He had to depend on it to feed himself.C．It made him confused about his identity.D．Being a clown is the first step to an artist.5．Why did the author insist on keeping his moustache?A．Because the real Batman had a mustache.B．Because he wanted to give the birthday boy a surprise.C．Because the birthday boy’s father asked him to keep it.D．Because he regarded himself as an artist rather than a clown.6．How did the kids react when seeing Batman with a mustache?A．They applauded but lost interest soon.B．They believed Batman had a moustache at once.C．They didn’t care about his moustache and played as normal.D．They laughed loudly because of his ridiculous moustache.7．What can we learn from the story?A．Every effort you make will pay off in the end.B．Never give up struggling with the unfair world.C．We can find our own identity even in an ordinary job.D．Every child is an angel that believes in all good things.On August 19, smoke filled the sky over Sao Paulo, Brazil. The smoke was coming from the Amazon rainforest, hundreds of miles away. Some parts of the rainforest had been burning for several weeks. But people can make few efforts to stop it.The Amazon is the largest rainforest in the world. About 60% of it is in Brazil. The Amazon is home to millions of species of plants and animals. It is also important to the health of the earth. Its trees take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and replace it with oxygen. This helps slow climate change.Experts believe the fires were set on purpose. In general, it’s against the law to start a fire in the rain-forest. But it’s not uncommon. Farmers regularly do so. They clear land so they can plant crops and raise cattle for beef production.Since 1978, some 289,000 square miles of the Amazon have been destroyed. Deforestation (滥伐森林) was the most serious in the early 2000s. Then, the Brazilian government began to deal with illegal fires. This greatly slowed the tree loss. But the new president of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, wants to cut down on environmental protection. Since he took power, Brazil has rolled back efforts to prevent deforestation.So what you can do in the future is help protect the Amazon. Raise money for organization such as the Rainforest Alliance and Amazon Watch which are working to raise awareness and protect the rainforest. Tell companies to make sure their practices don’t harm the environment. Take a look at our own habits. If we reduce the amount of meat we eat and paper we use, we can reduce deforestation.8．What do we know about the Amazon?A．It plays an important role.B．It has the most animals.C．It has 60% rainforest in the world.D．It has solved the problem of climate change.9．What caused the fires according to experts?A．Animals’ dying out.B．Humans’ influence.C．Natural disaster.D．Plants’ shortage.10．What do the underlined word “rolled back”in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Started.B．Improved.C．Reduced.D．Gained. 11．What can we do in the future to protect the Amazon?A．Give away what we have.B．Punish companies for their illegal fires.C．Change laws about forests immediately.D．Develop good habits friendly to the earth.Anger is good for you, as long as you control it, according to new psychology research.A new study from Carnegie Mellon University shows anger may help people reduce the negative effects of stress and help you become healthier.“Here getting emotional is not bad for you if you look at the case of anger,” said JenniferLerner of Carnegie Mellon. “The more people show anger, the lower their stress responses.”Lerner studied 92 UCLA students by asking them to count back from 6,200. They must say out loud every thirteenth number. Researchers disturbed them by asking them to count faster or ask them other questions. If they made any mistakes, they had to restart from the very beginning. Many students felt upset about making so many mistakes or got angry.Lerner used a hidden video camera and recorded all their facial expressions during the test. The researchers describe their reactions as fear, anger.Other researchers recorded the students’ blood pressure, pulse and production of a high-stress hormone (荷尔蒙) called cortisol. People whose faces showed more fear during the experiment had higher blood pressure and higher levels of the hormone. Both can have lasting effects such as diabetes (糖尿病), heart disease, depression and extra weight gain.When people feel fear, negative effects increase, but when they get angry, those negatives go down, according to the study.“Having that sense of anger leads people to actually feel some power in what otherwise is a maddening (令人发狂的) situation,” Lerner said.Lerner previously studied Americans’ emotional response to the 9·11 terrorist attacks (9·11 恐怖袭击) two months after the incident. She found people who reacted with anger were more optimistic. These people are healthier compared with those who were frightened during the event. So in maddening situations, anger is not a bad thing to have. It’s a healthier response than fear.12．In what ways can anger be good to people?A．By showing their optimistic side.B．By reducing their stress.C．By reducing high blood pressure.D．By taking the place of fear.13．The researchers made the students angry by ______.A．recording their performance secretlyB．asking them to count to 6,200 again and againC．disturbing them and making them start all over againD．criticizing them when they made mistakes14．What does the underlined word “both” in Paragraph 5 refer to according to the passage?A．Fear and anger.B．Blood pressure and pulse.C．Blood pressure and cortisol.D．Higher blood pressure and higher levels of the hormone.15．What is the story mainly about?A．The findings of new psychology research.B．What you can do with anger in certain cases.C．Different effects produced by anger and fear.D．Healthier responses in maddening situations.二、七选五Going from middle school to the freshman year of high school is a big change. 16 Be open to new friendships. High school is all about experiencing new things, including new friendships. Getting to know people you haven’t met before is a great way to open your eyes. 17 Simply sitting with a new person at lunch can be enough to get the ball rolling (滚动).Explore the campus. For most people, going off to senior high school means heading to a completely new campus. 18 They might be able to show you around the campus, which will make you a bit more confident as you go on with your freshman year.Get organized. Senior high school and junior high school are very different. 19 You can buy a planner and spend a few minutes each night going over the notes you took in class that day. Staying on top of your studies will make the transition (过渡) from middle school to high school much easier.20 While there’s no need to plan every day for the next three years, it can’t hurt to make a note of classes you want to take or activities you’d like to try. Believe it or not, the three years will go by really fast. Having a plan in place will help you make the most of your high school experience.A．Create a three-year plan.B．Be open to new experiences.C．If you’re nervous, start small.D．That way, you’ll have a better idea of some of the things you can expect.E．Try to get as organized as possible so you can stay on top of your studies.F．Here are some ways to help you deal with anxiety and prepare for the first year.G．If you worry about the unknown, reach out to the school and see if someone can help.三、完形填空When I was tidying out my drawers, I happened on a few diaries that I’d kept longlook.“Today the teacher 22 the report card telling the results of the term examinations. To my surprise,I was ranked No.5, the first time I’ve failed to achieve No. 1. I was so sad that I 23 bitterly.

I tried my best to recall (回忆) what my mother had done. But 29 hard I tried, I still failed to call it to mind.I glanced over several pages and the titles showed what was written as “very painful” or “most unforgettable” things are 30 important, or even laughable now.Then I picked up a new one. “To the one I love most: Your love will 31 me all my life. My love for you will never change.” I recalled someone—a vague(模糊的) image appearing before my eyes—my deskmate. I used to 32 him as the whole of my life. But now, all I know is that his love doesn’t keep me company and my love has changed.Now I’ve realized that nothing in the world is 33 And you’ll find the easiest to change is none 34 you yourself, and what stays unchanged is only the childish 35 for nice things.21．A．energetic B．childish C．dirty D．neat 22．A．discussed B．checked C．exchanged D．posted 23．A．cried B．ached C．touched D．tasted 24．A．mainly B．nearly C．hardly D．mostly 25．A．easier B．weightier C．slighter D．deeper 26．A．turned over B．turned down C．turned up D．turned on27．A．enter for B．ask for C．look for D．apply for 28．A．notice B．record C．tale D．report 29．A．whatever B．whenever C．however D．wherever 30．A．everything B．something C．nothing D．anything 31．A．improve B．accompany C．protect D．admire 32．A．help B．remember C．view D．prove 33．A．unsuitable B．unchangeable C．unavoidable D．unforgettable 34．A．less than B．rather than C．more than D．other than 35．A．desire B．fright C．fear D．curiosity四、用单词的适当形式完成短文五、汉译英（整句）46．他宁愿接受挑战也不愿放弃。

2023-2024学年甘肃省兰州第一中学高一上学期10月月考英语试题
2023-2024学年甘肃省兰州第一中学高一上学期10月月考英语试题Take a global tour of the world’s best frozen treatsFrozen custard, The United StatesSoft serve frozen custard is a typical American ice cream. Different than frozen yogurt, which is made with cultured yogurt and sugar, frozen custard is a combination of milk, cream, sugar and egg yolks(蛋黄). Traditional American ice cream sometimes has egg yolks, too, but the difference is the texture(口感): custard is dense because it’s made in a machine that doesn’t incorporate air into the ingredients.Raspado, MexicoRaspados are the Mexican version of American snow cones. But while snow cones are made using excessively sweet syrup, raspados have real fruits or fresh fruit juices. The sweet and cold treat is everywhere throughout Mexico and sold at street carts. These carts sell a range of fruit-based flavors such as pineapple, orange and mango.Gelato, ItalyPasta aside, ice cream is considered to be Italy’s culi nary symbol. In fact, visiting the local gelateria(意大利风味冰激凌店)is a way of life for Italians. Italians gather at gelaterias to socialize. They’re popular hangouts and cultural icons. Italian gelato is lower in fat than traditional ice cream. It is crafted with whole milk, eggs, sugar and flavoring — hazelnut, pistachio and vanilla ice cream mixed with pieces of chocolate are the most beloved flavors.Dondurma, TurkeyIs there any ice cream that doesn’t melt? Yes, that’s exactly what dondurma or Turkish ice cr eam is. Buying dondurma is like watching a performance. The men who sell it wear traditional Turkish clothes and a sultan hat and stretch, twist and turn the ice cream until it lands into a cone. Kids and adults get a kick out of the show1. How does frozen custard differ from traditional American ice cream?A．It contains egg yolks. B．It is denser in texture.C．It is sold at street carts. D．It stays frozen for longer.2. Which country has turned ice cream into a cultural element?A．The United States. B．Mexico.C．Italy. D．Turkey.3. Which ice cream has the most interesting buying experience?A．Frozen custard. B．Raspado.C．Gelato. D．Dondurma.Recently, the “city walk” has been g aining steam among residents and tourists around China. On social platform Xiaohongshu, data shows that the number of city walk-related topic posts has increased by 700 percent over the past three months, and the total number of interactions has increased by more than 600 percent.A city walk is a form of urban tourism originating in the UK. Unlike traditional sightseeing, which aims to hit famous attractions and commercial center, usually by vehicles with tense schedules, city walk is about “roaming”(漫步)around a city on foot, soaking up the atmosphere and finding unusual things that even a resident of the city might not have noticed before. Such walks generally avoid famous scenic spots and shopping centers, and take you to places where you can have real interactions with the local people, eat at small but authentic restaurants, and gain a deeper understanding of the history and culture of the city. City walkers are a cast of people who possess intense curiosity. They are eager to engage with the city they are visiting or reside in their own way. By “roaming” on foot, city walke rs can better feel the texture and listen to the breath of a place. They seek pleasure more through connection than consumption, which indicates a deep cultural curiosity. For example, in Chongqing, if you don’t take a walk, you can hardly experience the unique geographical charm of the mountainous city. Be it the hutong in Beijing or the Chinese parasol tree district in Shanghai; city walks allow people to see the scenery apart from the scene and uncover hidden knowledge.The appeal of a city walk lies in the young generation’s changing attitude toward life — pursuing quality leisure time while being occupied with demanding workloads and limited time for exploration.While roaming along the road, you can entirely focus on yourself and listen to your inner voice and care for what you feel, which is a way to love yourself and benefit your mental health. Just like Oscar Wilde once said, “To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.”4. What do the underlined words “gaining steam” in paragraph 1 probab ly mean?A．Raising concerns. B．Getting outdated.C．Becoming popular. D．Causing trouble.5. How does the city walk differ from traditional sightseeing?A．It pursues economical tourism.B．It is usually well-organized and scheduled.C．It helps promote the authentic food of the destination.D．It focuses on feeling the local culture by connecting the city.6. What do we know about city walkers?A．They are keen to buy souvenirs.B．They tend to walk as much as possible.C．They have strong curiosity about the local culture.D．They prefer the city landscape to the natural scenery.7. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．Why young people fall in love with a city walk.B．How popular the city walk is among citizens.C．What people often do during a city walk.D．Why city walk changes people’s lifestyle.Rain or shine, Tsering Chopa treks (艰苦跋涉) for long hours to deliver mail. For 18 years, the Tibetan mailman has been an important link between a remote, high-altitude settlement and the rest of the world. At 5,373 meters above sea level, Pumachangthang in Nakarze county of the Tibet autonomous region is China’s highest township(乡镇). The oxygen level is less than 40 percent and the annual average temperature is –7℃ . However, these weren’t the biggest cha llenges for a postal service. The area of the township is about 1,500 square kilometers, but its population is less than 2,000. The distance from the county town is some 70 km and a single trip to all the six villages can be as long as 160 km. The dogged perseverance required to get the job done under such conditions needs no further explanation.The busiest time for Tsering Chopa is between July and August each year, when students are waiting for their admission letters from various universities. He recalls once he had to deliver mail to one student whose family had already moved away. He had to quiz neighbors several times to find the new address. It was summer and the usual road to the village was blocked because of rain. He trekked for more than 20 km and grappled with shortness of breath all the way to finally deliver the letter. “I don’t mind the hardships because it is not easy for students from remote villages to get college admission. It was my duty to deliver the mail on time,” he says.One night in February 2019, a local resident Nyima Tsering’s daughter had fainted and desperately needed help. Knowing that, the mailman arranged for a car right away and sent her to the county hospital. He also gave some cash to the family for the girl’s treatment. Nyima Tsering’s daughter recovered soon, and Tsering Chopa became an idol in the village. “I will never forget his compassion and kindness,” says the grateful father.In 2019, Tsering Chopa received the China Youth May Fourth Medal. “It is an acknowledgment of what I do and a token of encouragement as well,” he says. “And I want to help more people living in remote areas. I want to bring the world closer to them and take them closer to the world.”8. Which is the most challenging part of Tsering Chopa’s work?A．Trekking for long distances. B．Suffering from cold temperatures.C．Standing extremely bad road conditions. D．Adapting to the high-altitudeenvironment.9. What words can best describe Tsering Chopa according to paragraph 2?A．Optimistic and cautious. B．Generous and intelligent.C．Courageous and ambitious. D．Persistent and responsible.10. How did Tsering Chopa help Nyima Tsering?A．Tsering Chopa fixed his car for free.B．Tsering Chopa saved his daughter’s life.C．Tsering Chopa delivered his admission letters quickly.D．Tsering Chopa drove him to a hospital for treatment.11. What is the best title for the text?A．Hardship Makes a Good Postman B．A Mailman Shows Kindness to Students C．A Postman in Tiebet Bridges Huge Gap D．Post Service Creates a Convenient LifeWe all know that our body language can give off signals to those around us about how we’re truly feeling. Crossed arms or closed body language suggests that we are feeling defensive (防御的) and we didn’t really believe what we’re listening to. Walking here and there suggests that we’re bored. And poor eye contact can suggest that we’re lying.One major development in the field of body language that hit the headlines is the “power pose.” This is a theory put forward in 2011 by U.S. social psychologists Amy Cuddy, Dana Carney and Andy Yap. They proposed that when you pretend to be powerful, you are more likely to actually feel powerful.What the theory suggests is that the simple act of holding a powerful pose can have powerful impact. For example, sitting with your legs up on the desk and arms held behind your head can raise your androgen levels and lower your cortisol (皮质醇) levels. Androgen is the hormone that affects dominance (控制); cortisol is the stress hormone. The study assessed participa nts’ hormone levels before and after they held high-power and low-power poses.Just as a male gorilla beats his chest to tell his dominance, humans can use body language to enhance their confidence, increase feelings of power, and lower their stress levels. These findings build on several psychological studies suggesting that some aspects of body language can change your emotional state. For instance, someone nodding “yes” to you can make you easier to persuade, and when you smile, you can feel more positive.So, how can powerful poses help us in the workplace? Well, the study proposes that, simply by striking a powerful pose, you can better prepare yourself for difficult or stressful situations.

四川省成都市第七中学（高新校区）2023-2024学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解If you’re interested in pushing yourself academically while experiencing college life, our Summer Programs for Pre-College Students (SPP) can be ideal for you. In the programs, you will be able to make friends with fellow students, engage in social activities around the city and on campus, and experience pre-college summer study at one of the world’s top teaching and research universities.Our long-running summer term pre-college offerings include a choice of one-, two-, three-, and six-week programs that prepare you for success in college. With five exciting and challenging pre-college summer programs to choose from, you can earn college credit, discover a new subject area, perform cutting-edge research in university labs, or immerse yourself in hands-on learning.Academic lifeSPP invites you to join other highly motivated teens from 87 countries in our summer programs for high school students — and take the leap into college life and academics, which enables you to take on new academic challenges, explore a variety of interests and consider possible majors. You can take college courses alongside undergraduates either on campus or online. And you can also earn up to eight college credits by conducting in-depth STEM research with individual instructors or as part of a group project. Or, you can immerse yourself in a variety of stimulating noncredit seminars that blend lectures with experiential learning, discussions, and projects.Campus/Residence lifeEmbracing college life is an exciting experience. Whether you live on campus or commute, you’ll get to know the ins and outs of college and city life. If you live on campus, you will stay in the residence hall, sharing a room and participating in dorm activities. There are typically two students per room and safety is our highest priority: residence halls have live-in university staff and 24-hour security. Resident program assistants provide guidance, coordinate and lead social activities, ranging from group activities that include comedy shows to field trips.Your hard work will be combined with social events and fun activities — and you’ll still have time for your own adventures on campus! Email the SPP office at ******************. 1．What does SPP aim to do?A．To help college students to achieve academic success.B．To provide admission guidelines for pre-college students.C．To get high school students well-prepared for college life.D．To encourage students to participate in hands-on learning.2．What are students supposed to do to earn the required credits?A．Carry out STEM research.B．Attend various seminars.C．Finish the courses online.D．Join in experiential learning.3．What can we know about students living on campus?A．They can organize social activities.B．They will have access to a single room.C．They are provided with good security.D．They are advised to direct comedyshows.“I can’t connect with your characters.”I kept hearing the same feedback and was unable to understand why and not sure what to do. I was a character-driven writer. How could I mess up the one thing I was supposed to be good at? I was determined to convince my agent that these characters were real. After all, I knew they were real. My main character Lotus had lived inside me for years. I just needed to clarify her on the page.I wrote and edited for a year, trying to respond to this agent’s feedback. But Lotus’ personality began to disappear. I tried to have her make “better” decisions, wear smarter fashion, and have more friends, as my agent said she acted “immature” and was “isolated”. And when this agent ultimately parted ways with me, I felt like I had failed. Now with time and distance, I realize I tried to fit Lotus into a neurotypical style to please my agent. And as a result, Lotus lost her Lotus-ness.When that agent discouraged me from writing Lotus as autistic(自闭的), he said that would make Lotus seem more “vulnerable(脆弱的)” or an “obvious victim”. I didn’t want Lotus to seem vulnerable. Lotus’ autism is what makes her powerful, I tried to explain. But from a neurotypical perspective, Lotus’ autism could only be seen as a weakness.Unsure of how to convince my agent of the strength and power autistic women hold, Ibegan to write Lotus as “neurotypical”. And I failed miserably. After all, what do I know about being neurotypical? My whole life, autism was my default. Not being diagnosed until 2020, I assumed the way I saw the world was “normal”.My current agent encourages me to write from my neurodivergent(神经多样性的) experience. With this invitation, I revisited Lotus and saw her the way I first wrote her. And when I did, the characters and the entire narrative began to make more sense.Identifying my characters as neurodivergent not only gives me joy as a writer, but it has produced my strongest writing. For so long, I’ve combatted the advice to “write what I know”, in part because I didn’t know what I actually knew. I didn’t know I was neurodivergent. But as I mine the specificity of my lived experience, my writing is stronger. There is a power to our lived experience. It’s not a limitation on our craft, but a swinging open of the gates. 4．How did the author feel when receiving the repeated response from the first agent?A．Confused.B．Convinced.C．Determined.D．Disappointed. 5．Lotus’ personality got lost because ______A．Lotus no longer lived inside the author B．the author attempted to please the agent C．the agent failed to sympathize with Lotus D．Lotus was considered childish and lonely 6．What do we know about the author?A．She regretted parting with the agent.B．She owed her success in life to autism.C．She was aware of her autism in the early years.D．She was empowered by her autistic experience.7．What has the author learned from her own experience?A．Stick to your dream despite discouragement.B．Be true to yourself and write from your heart.C．Giving in to authority is the barrier to success.D．Everyone is born an original instead of a copy.At one time, the inheritance of traditional drama was difficult. People of insight screamed “save drama”. Many celebrities and big names put down their figures and went to the community to carry out public welfare performances of opera, and did everything possible to expand the coverage of drama. In recent years, traditional Chinese culture and art has gained a foothold on short video platforms and attracted a large number of young followersthanks to the explosive growth of the short video industry. Relaxing, emotional and fragmented, these video contents perfectly match the demands of the users. With the application of new technologies such as social communication and immersive experiencing, short video platforms are seeing more users, becoming a shining spot of new Internet media.Recently, Huangmei Opera “ Female Consort Prince ” became a hit on short video platforms as a lot of young users covered the aria (咏叹调) in their own way and showed great artistic talents. The interactive platforms are expanding the charm of the traditional opera among young people.Peking Opera was also well-received on short video platforms thanks to a series of augmented reality (AR) effects. Users love to film clips with a set of virtual facial makeup, headwear and costumes. Statistics indicate that these effects were applied by more than 18 million users, most of whom were young people.In addition to Chinese operas, intangible cultural heritage items, such as embroidery, paper-cutting, printing and dyeing, shadow play works, oiled paper umbrella making, and bamboo weaving are also actively promoted on short video platforms. In a word, short video platforms are becoming an important channel to display China’s intangible cultural heritage.Short video platforms, offering a fun, popular and easy way to explore the traditional art forms, are receiving a lot of positive feedbacks from China’s young generations. The seconds, or minutes long videos, along with unlimited possibilities as well as richness of styles, have produced remarkable achievements in promoting traditional Chinese culture.8．What mainly made the inheritance of traditional drama difficult?A．The slow growth of industry.B．The insufficient coverage of drama.C．The poorly-met demands of the users.D．The severe shortage of the drama actors. 9．What led to the promotion of Peking Opera on short video platform?A．The social communication.B．The set of virtual facial makeup.C．The positive feedbacks from users.D．The application of new technologies. 10．Why are paper-cutting and bamboo weaving mentioned?A．To expand the charm of traditional Chinese culture.B．To prove traditional art forms are actively promoted.C．To show the current situation of these cultural heritage.D．To offer new channels to display China’s cultural heritage.11．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．The Bright Future of Huangmei Opera.B．The Explosive Growth of the Short Video Industry.C．The Simple Way to Explore the Traditional Art Form.D．The Creative Combination of Culture and Technologies.Several years ago, Jeremy Clarkson, presenter of the famous BBC television programme “Top Gear” discovered that one of his guests was half German and half Irish. Immediately, he said: “That's quite a strange combination. It's like, this must be done absolutely perfectly... tomorrow”.This joke played on stereotypes (刻板印象) of the Germans as efficient and the Irish as lazy. Many people could understandably be offended by these kinds of assertions (断言).We do not know every Irish person, so how can we then conclude that every Irish person is lazy?I recently read on a website that Irish business people were described as being 'generally rather casual' and more outwardly friendly than many European counties'. German business people, on the other hand, are considered to be very direct and according to the website, they do not need a personal relationship in order to do business. Once you hear advice like this,it becomes easier to understand where jokes like the one in the first paragraph come from.So why do some people disapprove of the kind of stereotypes as seen in Clarkson's joke, but not baring an eyelid (眨眼) when it comes to generalizations. What is the difference between the two?By definition, a stereotype is a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing. A cultural characteristic, on the other hand, is a pattern of behaviour that is typical of a certain group.So what does this really mean? Stereotype are simply overstated assumptions about groups of people. Imagine if a tourist visited a small town in Switzerland and saw a number of locals playing the alphorn instrument, and then claimed that Swiss people can play the alphorn. This would be a stereotype! This is an overstated image of the Swiss which is based on one tourist's experience.If however, this tourist were to say that the Swiss are very punctual, this could be seen as a cultural characteristic. This is because it is a pattern of behaviour which is very typical in Switzerland: from their transport system to their business meetings in this way, some people argue that generalizing another culture is not just useful. but important. Politicians alwayshave to be mindful of the cultural characteristics of different countries. By becoming aware of different cultural characteristics,they can avoid causing offence (冒犯) in those cultures.However, others argue that generalizing cultures will always lead to offensive stereotypes. They argue that the best thing we can do is to stop generalizing cultures and start treating people as individuals.All this raises important questions: can making generalizations about groups of people be a positive thing? Or should we always avoid making broad assumptions about different groups?12．When he said, “it's like, this must be done absolutely perfectly... tomorrow”，Jeremy Clarkson really meant________.A．the stereotypes of the Germans and the Irish are not so goodB．the combination of half German and half Irish is interestingC．the characteristics of the Germans and the Irish are oppositeD．the Germans will do it perfectly tomorrow while the Irish won't13．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．It's typical of the Swiss to be punctual.B．The Swiss can play the alphorn quite well.C．The Irish people are considered as lazy, direct and casual.D．The Germans are thought to be efficient, friendly and direct.14．Politicians think it important to generalize another culture because________.A．they don't want to offend other peopleB．generalizing will lead to offensive stereotypesC．cultural characteristics are better than stereotypesD．they think different cultural characteristics are useful15．The main purpose of this passage is to________.A．illustrate the importance of making generalizationsB．show it is wrong to play jokes on stereotypes of different peopleC．tell us the differences between stereotypes and cultural characteristicsD．discuss whether it is good to make generalizations about groups of people二、七选五“Just think positively!”“It could be worse.”“You should look at the bright side!”We’ve all heard (and maybe used) these phrases without much thought. But they could be contributing to a culture of toxic(有毒的) positivity. For those new to this term, it might sound like an oxymoron(矛盾修辞法). How can positivity be toxic? Isn’t it supposed to be helpful, or “positive”, as the name suggests? 16“Toxic positivity is when somebody avoids all negative thoughts or feelings, pretending everything is going well when it is not,” explains Melissa Dowd, a therapist at PlushCare, a virtual health platform for primary care and mental health services.Whitney Goodman, the author of Toxic Positivity describes toxic positivity as the “endless pressure to be happy and positive, no matter what the circumstances are.” 17 It’s also something we can cause other people to experience.Expressing toxic positivity to others may look like offering them a simple solution to a complicated problem that we know nothing about, or not allowing people around you to appropriately express negative emotions.Toxic positivity causes us to suppress our emotions, which can make them worse.18 “Although it can be helpful to look on the bright side when facing challenges,” Dowd says, “not coping with negative feelings in a healthy way in the moment can lead to those feelings resurfacing later in different areas of your life or as a form of anxiety.” 19 “If I feel like you’re going to dismiss me, I’m going to stop sharing how I’m feeling,” Goodman adds.20 If you’re using toxic positivity against yourself, Goodman suggests remembering it’s OK if you’re upset about something. It’s valid if something annoys you. “Allow ourselves and other people to share when they’re going through a difficult time,” she says. Dowd adds that it’s essential that “we all learn to cope with and process our emotions in a healthy way as opposed to avoiding how we feel” as life’s stressors continue to rise. For example, instead of simply saying “Just think positively,” we’d better say “Sometimes bad things happen. How can I help?”A．Are there ways to avoid toxic positivity?B．Toxic positivity also disrupts connection.C．It can harm people who are going through difficult times.D．This can come up in different situations when we are dealing with pressure.E．They become more intense and can cause long-lasting health concerns in the future.F．Experts say constant forced positivity can lead to the opposite, and have a negative effect.G．This is what we may bring on to ourselves by not allowing negative thoughts and feelings.三、完形填空I am 39 I made it through.

AOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have tobe a friend. But how can you be a good friend at school?Listen—Listen when they are talking. Don’t say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it’s not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.Help them—If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try toput them first, but make sure you don’t do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra pencilor pen with you to classes in case they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in casethey forget something they need.Be there for them—Be there for your friends to help make them feel better in hard times. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U.S. actor, once said, “I often make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control, butif you can’t stay with me at my worst, you are sure not to deserve to be with me at my best.”Always remember this! If you don’t want to stay with your friends when they’re in hard times, then you don’t deserve（值得）to be with them when they’re having a good time!—Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for ice cream, have a party, goto a movie and so on. T ake time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy.By planning things together, you both can have a good time. And you’ll remember these things when you’re all old!21．While your friend is talking to you about his or her feelings, you 。
should______________.A. give him or her some adviceB. calm him or her downC. just listen unless askedD. also share your feelings22．What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe’s words?A. Life without a friend is death.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. A friend is easier lost than found.D. A man is known by his friends.23．Which of the following can be put in the blank of the last paragraph?A. Enjoy yourselfB. Make plansC. Understand your friendsD. Play with your friends24. The passage is mainly about _______.A. how to find a good friendB. how to help friends in troubleC. how to make more friendsD. how to be a good friendBA man had two large pots.

As they looked at the salary list, one of them said, “Why do we keep this old man on year after year? I don’t think we need him or his work.”Later, the old man was asked to leave.For several weeks, nothing changed.
