AIf you learn about the following famous women, you’' 1l know you can do much for society nomatter what. You don’t need to be in a specific field , time or environment to make a difference to theworld in your lifetime.Amelia Earhart ( 1897 - 1937)Amelia Earhart was the first woman who ever flew alone across the Atlantic in 1932. She became thefirst woman pilot in 1935 after flying from Hawaii to California. She began her lifelong dream of flyingacross the world in 1937. However, her flight went missing on that trip and she was never seen again.Helena Rubinstein ( 1870 - 1965)Helena Rubinstein moved to Australia in 1902 without the ability to speak English. Later, shefounded one of the world’s first cosmetic (化妆品) companies after mixing lanolin,which is an oilthat comes from sheep' s wool , with flowers. Because of that , she became the world’s richest womanat the timeKatharine Hepburn ( 1907 - 2003 )Katharine Hepburn was known for playing strong willed women in her films.She won four Academy Awards for Best Actress，the most an actress has ever won. Her newdress style made wearing trousers acceptable to women, which wasn’t allowed at that time.Emmeline Pankhurst ( 1858 - 1928 )Emmeline was an influential woman activist , who helped British women get the right to vote. Shefought along with her husband for the rights of women all the time in the late 19th century and early20th century. After she lost her husband, she teamed up with her three daughters and formed TheWomen Social and Political Union，which was best known as the suffragettes ( women' s right to vote).21. What do the four women in the passage have in common?A. A creative mind.B. A kind heart.C. A pioneering spirit.C. A good education.22. What was the problem for Helena at first when she moved to Australia?A. She couldn't speak English.B. She didn't have money.C. She didn't have work experience.D. She didn't know how to make up.23. Which of the following words can be used to describe Emmeline Pankhurst?A. Friendly.B. Honest.C. Patient. Determined.BMany seniors feel pressured to go straight from high school to college, but Camden Olson, whograduated from the Latin School of Chicago in the US last year, didn't give in. She decided to spenda gap year- -taking a year off before college- -raising a guide dog for Guiding Eyes for the Blind inMaine. The non-profit provides trained guide dogs to blind and visually impaired (视力障碍的)people.“This is something I've always wanted to do.”Olson said.It is becoming more and more popular among American teenagers to have a gap year. Somestudents use the year off to figure out what they want to do: travel the world or save money for college.Olson is using her time to follow a passion she' s had since 7th grade. For years , she kept an eyeon guide dog services until she came across the opportunity at Guiding Eyes. With support from herfriends, family and teachers，Olson went for it. Olson ’s volunteer work centers around Derby，aone-year-old black dog.“My job is to raise him to be well-mannered and socialized," she said. “Guide dogs can't be distracted. They go everywhere with their visually-impaired owner. They give a blind person a lot ofsupport, too.Of course, there's an end in sight for Derby and Olson' s close bond. When Derby celebrateshis own graduation, Olson will have to say goodbye to him.“No doubt there will be tears, but, if he passes, I will be so happy for him to become a workingdog,”she said.While some do not agree that gap years are a good choice，Olson said she’s seen major success.In fact, she' ll be attending Princeton University soon and is thinking about majoring in biology.“I think I' m already so much more mature than I was,”she said. “So many kids come backfrom gap years a lot more focused and prepared.”24. Why did Camden Olson decide to spend her gap year working for Guiding Eyes?A. Because her parents talked her into doing it.B. Because it had been her dream for a long time.C. Because many of her peers had already chosen to do so.D. Because it would help her to make her experienced in work.25. According to Olson，guide dogs shoulda. not be distractedb. be well-mannered and easy -goingc. know how to play some tricks for their ownersd. give their visually-impaired people supporte. protect their blind people from all possible dangersA. a,b, cB.b,c,eC.a,b,dD.b,d,e26. How did Olson feel when she said goodbye to Derby?A. Quite happy.B. Regretful and sad.C. Nervous and disappointed.D. Sad but glad.27. What does Olson think about the idea of a gap year?A. Whether it' s good or not depends on the person.B. It makes people better prepared for the future.C. Its negative side outweighs its positive side.D. It makes sure of a student' s success at college.CTo me, Shakespeare is a bit of a touchy subject in the theatre industry. I believe Shakespeare’s plays to be the most challenging in terms of language. When you have challenging language, thenunderstanding the plot and topics will become a challenge as well. It's like a chain. If you don'tunderstand it from the start, it makes things hard later on and people tend to give up on it. Regardlessof all of this, I believe Shakespeare is important in the sense that it' s where true theatre started.William Shakespeare is a name everyone knows regardless of whether you enjoy his works or not.Many high schools or colleges put on at least one Shakespeare play every few years and I likethat. I think it' s important to expose students to plays that are a bit more challenging than they usedto be. Of course. it' s not easy to understand these plays but then think about the people who act inthose plays. When acting, you have to understand your character and not only that, you need tocompletely know everything going on around you as well. So to understand the script (剧本) is onething, but to act in a Shakespeare play is a whole another thing. How about memorizing the lines?That' s one of the hardest things actors have to get through. It is such heightened language that it' salmost like learning a foreign language. Shakespeare is tough and that's where I think I love it themost. The challenge is understanding. Once you have that then you have room to play with it.Therefore, if people walked into a Shakespeare play with more of an open mind , their experiencewould be so much better. There is a large amount of exploration and discovery in his plays and theexperience can be really satisfying. It' s hard stuff, but it' s fascinating and we should be embracing it.28. What's the author' s attitude towards putting on Shakespeare’s plays at colleges?A. Critical.B. Favorable.C. Cautious.D. Indifferent.29. What does the text suggest people do when enjoying Shakespeare’s plays?A. Act them out.B. Remember the lines in them.C. Enjoy them with an open mind.D. Learn Shakespeare’s language.30. What's the biggest challenge in understanding Shakespeare ’s plays?A. The variety of its topic.B. The challenging language.C. The complicated plot.D. The memorable characters.31. What is the text mainly about?A. The characteristics of Shakespeare's plays.B. The plots and topics of Shakespeare’s plays.C. The stress from performing Shakespeare’s plays.D. The importance and way of enjoying Shakespeare’s plays.DLanguage learning apps are very popular now and offer opportunities to learn vocabulary andpractice grammar. But there has been a discussion about just how effective such apps can be.Among the most popular apps are Duolingo and Busuu. A previous research found positive resultson the use of them. But it mainly concentrates on studies with learners who had signed up for language courses and these apps worked as an after-class support, so the results were not always reliable.A recent study of 4 ,095 Busuu users has been carried out to find out if users can actually learn alanguage with an app.Busuu provides learning materials for 12 different languages. It offers special models where somecontents are available for free while some contents are not. We find that its users are an even mix ofmen and women. More than half consider themselves to be at the beginner level as there is a decreasein users as their language levels go up. Most people use the app because of personal interest, orbecause they want to study or live abroad. Females tend to use it less often but for longer periods oftime than male users.Getting any feedback on Busuu depends on whether your answer is correct or not. While it ishelpful, this is not the sort of feedback language teachers prefer, as it does not explain why theanswer is right or wrong. In spite of this , feedback in the app is very highly rated.More than 92% of the people state that the app has met their expectations and 86% consider theapp as very good or good. In fact, more than 80% of the users surveyed strongly agree that using the app has helped them improve their knowledge of the language they are learning.Besides , language learning apps also create an environment where mistakes are only known to theusers, and this can address the performance anxiety that many learners suffer from when asked tospeak a foreign language. So language teachers should encourage their students to use them to do thegrammar work, leaving precious class time for more language communication.32. What can we learn about the app Busuu from the text?A. Most users consider it satisfying.B. All the contents are free to use.C. It's used by more advanced learners.D. It's more popular with female learners.33. Which of the following can probably replace the underlined word?A. Write down.B. Deal with.C. Turn to.D. Speak of.34. Why weren’t the results of the former research always dependable?A. Because it used out-of-date methods.B. Because it only considered users of a limited type.C. Because it just focused on positive results.D. Because it was only carried out before class.35. What is the main idea of the text?A. Students won' t suffer anxiety in learning languages by using Busuu.B. Language learning apps are very popular with most language teachers.C. Students should be required to use apps for homework after class.D. Language learning apps are effective and satisfactory to language learners.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

AFor Stevens Point locals in the US, the city is flooded with delicious fried fish. Here are four top choices for the community to have a try.Hilltop Pub&GrillHilltop Pub&Grill first opened in the 1980s and took the Stevens Point community by storm with its delicious food and unique decoration style. Its fried fish are beloved due to the use of “hi gh-quality North Atlantic cod, with a light beer batter (面糊)”.The Final Score Bar&GrillThe Final Score Bar&Grill aimed to become a local hot spot in 2001 when Jim Billings, the owner, took charge of the business. Billings feels that their five batter flavors set them apart from their neighboring bars. Besides, various wines are available.Point After Pub&GrillPoint After Pub&Grill started serving delicious food and cold beers in a welcoming environment in 2009. But its history runs much longer. “Before it was Point After Pub&Grill, it had been Northside Bar for 30 plus years,”explained Molski, the owner. Molski feels that the pub’s four special batter choices and other fish specials are what help make it an area landmark.Two Harps PubThis Irish pub opened its doors to the public in 2017 and has been drawing fans and locals ever since. “I had done my career for a long time and was kind of bored with it,” said Nick Moore, the owner. “And this opportunity fell into my lap, so I went with it. It really made sense to open up an Irish bar.” The grow ing pub advises guests to try a cold beer with their Friday fried fish.1. What makes Hilltop Pub&Grill popular with customers?A. The convenient location.B. The special food.C. The high-quality service.D. The unique wine.2. What do The Final Score Bar&Grill and Point After Pub&Grill have in common?A. They are both run by the same company.B. They are both famous for great wines.C. They both feature some particular batter.D. They were both founded ten years ago.3. What is special about Two Harps Pub?A. It is the newest among the four pubs.B. It offers free cold beers to customers.C. It only provides fried fish on Fridays.D. It has a unique decoration style.BEver since I graduated from high school I’ve worked in the factories surrounding my hometown every summer. However, making the transformation between school and full-time blue-collar work during the break never gets any easier. For a student like me who considers anyclass before noon to be unacceptable, getting to a factory by 6 o’clock each morning is suffering. My friends never seem to understand why I’m so relieved to be back at school or that my summer vacation has been anything but a vacation.There are few people as self-confident as a college student who has never been out in the real world. People of my age always seem to overestimate the value of their time and knowledge. In fact, all the classes did not prepare me for my battles with the machine I ran in the plant, which would jam whenever I absent-mindedly put in a part backward or upside down.The most stressful thing about blue-collar life is knowing your job could disappear over night. Issues like being laid off and overseas relocation had always seemed distant to me until my co-workers told me that the unit I was working in would shut down within six months and move to Mexico, where people would work for 60 cents an hour.After working 12-hour shifts (轮班) in a factory, the other options have become only too clear. “This job pays well, but it’s hell on the body,” said one co-worker. “Study hard and keep reading.”she added. When I’m back at the university, skipping classes and turning in lazy re-writes seems too irresponsible after seeing what I would be doing without school. All the advice and public-service announcements about the value of an education that used to sound stale (陈腐的) now ring true.My experiences in the factories have inspired me to make the most of my college years beforeI enter the real world for good.4. What does the author think of his summer holidayA. It was no holiday for him at all.B. It brought him nothing but suffering.C. It was a relief from his hard work at school.D. It offered him a chance to make more friends.5. What can we infer about most college studentsA. They do better in the real world.B. They are confident when they work.C. They think too highly of themselves.D. They are expert at handling machines.6. What is the biggest pressure for blue-collar workers?A. A low incomeB. The lack of securityC. An unstable locationD. Less break7. How did the working experiences change the authorA. He became responsible for his work.B. He learned to be more practical at work.C. He began to respect blue-collar workers.D. He came to appreciate his college education.CUS author Henry Rollins once wrote: “Loneliness adds beauty to life. It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better.” Indeed, in the eyes of artists, loneliness never seems to go out of style. There are paintings that portray loneliness, songs that are inspired by loneliness, and many works of literature that center around this theme.In the eyes of UK economist Rachel Reeves, however, loneliness is far from romantic. Instead, it’s a “giant evil” that’s become a serious problem in the country.So just how serious is it? On Jan 17, UK Prime Minister Theresa May appointed politician Tracey Crouch as the countr y’s very first “Minister for Loneliness”. Her job is to tackle (处理) the loneliness that the country’s been feeling—a problem which, according to UK government research, is affecting more than 9 million people in the country, and is more harmful to one’s ph ysical and mental health than smoking 15 cigarettes a day.And the problem hasn’t just appeared recently. Back in 2014, the UK was given the title of the “loneliness capital of Europe” by The Telegraph. A survey carried out by the newspaper found that British people were less likely to get to know their neighbors or build strong relationships with people than those from other European countries.“There is something about British wanting to deal with problems themselves,” Christian Guy, director of the Centre for Social Justice think-tank (智囊团), told The Telegraph.But this doesn’t mean that the problem only affects Britons. In fact, we’re all suffering from loneliness now more than ever, in spite of most of the world now having access to the Internet, which has enabled us to be more connected than ever.What we need, according to Kim Leadbetter, sister of the late UK politician Jo Cox, is to have “proper human connections”. “Our lives nowadays are so busy. We spend the vast majority of our time on our phones, on our laptops. We need to press pause on that and actually sit down and speak to human beings,” Leadbetter said at an event last year.But the first steps toward fighting this problem are to accept its existence and not be ashamed or intimidated (吓倒) by it. After all, without loneliness, many beautiful paintings, songs, and literary works wouldn’t even exist. And “evil” or not, being lonely is simply part of the experience of being human.8. What can we learn about the UK’s loneliness problem?A. The UK became the loneliest country in the world in 2014.B. More than half of British people suffer from loneliness.C. The government is working to solve the problem.D. British people communicate less with their neighbors than ever.9. According to the text, social loneliness _______.A. has become a problem worldwideB. didn’t attract the public’s attention until recentlyC. is mainly caused by the wide use of the InternetD. does more harm mentally than physically10. What does Leadbetter suggest doing to cope with loneliness?A. Making more phone calls to our friends.B. Stopping the use of electronic products.C. Interacting with the people around us face to face more often.D. Accepting its existence calmly.11. Which of the following would the author probably agree with?A. Loneliness is a giant evil of society.B. Only artists can appreciate the beauty of loneliness.C. It is hard to find a solution to social loneliness.D. Loneliness is just a normal part of our life.DWhen we look at a lovely baby, a puppy or a really cute kitten many of us want to squeeze it. Why is that?According to a study published in the journal Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, it’s a typical experience of “cute aggression”. The experience results from the fight between the brain’s “emotion system”, which impels (驱使) people to squeeze cute things, and its “reward system” which deals with feelings of “wanting”.In the study, 54 participants between the ages of 18 and 40 were presented with four groups of photos. Two of the groups of photos were of cute human babies and animals and the other two were of less adorable adult humans and animals. As the participants looked at the photos, there searchers watched their brain activities.According to the researchers, the participants reward systems were found to be active as they looked at the cute babies, and they seemed to be overwhelmed (征服的). By contrast, the reward systems of the people looking at the less cute adults were found to be inactive, and they seemed to be less impelled by their reward systems.This suggests that cute things activate their emotion systems in such a way that people are overwhelmed by the experience of cuteness. But reward systems work against these emotions by creating the desire to protect cute things.As Katherine Stavropoulos, the lead researcher of this study at the University of California in the US told Science Alert, “The cute aggression is the brain’s way of ‘bringing us back down’ by balancing our feelings of being overwhelmed.”Stavropoulos compared this process of balancing to an evolutionary adaptation. Such an adaptation may have taken place to ensure that people are able to continue taking care of creaturesthey consider particularly cute.So, although cute babies and adorable animals may look completely helpless, their vulnerable (易受伤害的) appearance may in fact help them to survive.12. According to the text, “cute aggression” refers to .A. the emotion of wanting to protect cute thingsB. the task of emotion system and reward systemC. the adaptation of consistently taking care of cute creaturesD. the behavior of squeezing a cute baby or animal when seeing it13. In nature, “cute aggression” is caused by .A. the need of the brain to balance all feelingsB. the photos of cute human babies and animalsC. the vulnerable appearance of babies or animalsD. the conflict between emotion system and reward system14. Which of the following statements about the study is TRUE?A. Facial expressions of the participants were observed.B. Katherine Stavropoulos conducted this study on her own.C. Cute babies and animals affected brain activities of all the participants.D. The participants were divided into two groups in order to make comparison.15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this text?A. To persuade readers to protect cute animals.B. To stress the significance of cute aggression.C. To present research findings on cute aggression.D. To share an interesting phenomenon with readers.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The natural history and cultural scenery of the area provide children with learning opportunities because they can enjoy the many wonders of this area.Fengjie Tiankeng Ground JointTiankeng Diqiao Scenic Area is located in the southern mountainous area of Fengjie County. The Tiankeng pit is 666 meters deep and is currently the deepest tiankeng in the world.

Located in the hinterland of Wuling Mountain. The Fuxi Cave in the scenic spot is about 3,000 meters long, with winding corridors, deep underground rivers, and color1 ful stalactites. The landscape is beautiful.Jinyun Mountain National Nature ReserveJinyun Mountain is located in Beibei District of Chongqing City, about 45 kilometers away from the Central District of Chongqing City. The nine peaks of Jinyun Mountain stand upright and rise from the ground. The ancient trees on the mountain are towering, the green bamboos form the forest, the environment is quiet, and the scenery is beautiful, so it is called "Little Emei".

It also uses the traditional method of central axis symmetry, with colonnade-style double wings and a tower ending, plus a large green glazed roof, large red pillars, white railings, double-eave bucket arches, and painted carved beams.1.How deep is the Tiankeng Ground Joint?A.666mB.3,000mC.45kmD.1050m2.Which of the following rocks can you see in Youyang Peach Garden?A.LimestoneB.StalactiteC.MarbleD.Quartzite3.Which attraction is closest to downtown Chongqing?A.Fengjie Tiankeng Ground JointB.Jinyun Mountain National Nature ReserveC.Chongqing People's SquareD.Youyang Peach GardenBParents and math teachers regularly asked by their school-aged charges whether math matters inreal life now have an answer.In a study published by the National Bureau of Economic Research this week, Harvard Kennedy School Policy Professor Joshua Goodman took a look at what happened to students whose high schools were required in the 1980s to increase the minimum level of coursework required to graduate. What he found is that the students were more likely to increase the number of math courses they took as a result of the change in standards and that translated into higher earnings down the line.Put simply: About 15 years after they graduated, the high school graduates who went to school when these changes took effect saw their average earnings increase about 10% for every extra year of math coursework. The findings may add fuel to the steady drum of education experts, policy makers and others calling for an increased focus on science and math education.The increase in required math courses didn’t necessarily produce rocket scientists, Goodman notes, because the extra coursework wasn’t at a particularly high level. But becoming familiar with and practicing ly basic math skills allowed high school graduates to pursue and excel at jobs that required some level of computational knowledge, he said.Goodman acknowledged that the earnings boost for the students connected with the up tick （上升）in math education may be dependent on the state of the economy. When Goodman checked in the late 1990s and early 2000s on the earnings of the students who graduated in the late 1985，he found that their earnings increased significantly if they took more math.4. What does Joshua Goodman’s study find?A. High school graduates earn more.B. High school students prefer math.C. Math matters a lot in one’s income.D. Math is a compulsory course in school.5. Why is increase in required math courses useful?A. It produced rocket scientists.B. It makes high school students smarter.C. It meets the requirements of the government.D.

To seek help for high school students’ problems.C. To show the great importance of learning math.D. To tell a struggling history of high school students.7. What could be the best title for the text?A. Efforts matter mostB. Math makes moneyC. Earnings of different graduatesD. Changes of high school coursesCIt is that time of year when people need to lock their cars. It’ s not because there are a lot of criminals running around stealing cars. Rather, it’ s because of the good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest. Especially with this year’s large crop, leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to stuff it full of zucchini(西葫芦).My sister-in-law, Sharon, recently had a good year for tomatoes. She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they began to feel their skin turn slightly red. That ’ s when she decided it was time to share herblessings.She started calling everyone she knew. When that failed, she began to ask everyone in the neighborhood like a politician, eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes. “ Feel free to take whatever you want,”Sharontold her. She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn’t go to waste.A few days later,Sharonanswered the door. There was the neighbor, holding some bread. The neighbor smiledpleasantly, “I want to thank you for all of the tomatoes, and I have to admit that I took a few other things and hope you wouldn’t mind.”Sharoncouldn’t think of anything else in her garden that had been worth harvesting and said so. “Oh, but you did,” the neighbor said. “You had some of the prettiest zucchini I’ve ever seen.”Sharonwas confused. Zucchini in her garden? They hadn’ t even planted any zucchini. But her neighbor insisted that there really were bright-green zucchini in her garden. The two of them walked together into the backyard. When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables,Sharonsmiled, “ Well, actually, those are cucumbers that we never harvested, because they got too big, soft and bitter for eating or canning.”The neighbor looked atSharon, shock written all over her face. Then she smiled, and held out the bread that she had shared all over the neighborhood, “I brought you a loaf of cucumber bread. I hope you like it.”8. Why does the author suggest that people in the neighborhood should lock their cars?A. They might be stolen by thieves.B. They might be moved away by the police.C. Their neighbors might fill them with their harvest.D. Their neighbors might throw rubbish in them.9. What does the underlined word “blessings” in the second paragraph mean?A. Tomatoes.B. God’s protection.C.Helpful things.D. Best wishes.10. What did the neighbor do inSharon’s garden?A. She harvested tomatoes only.B. She harvested zucchini by accident.C. She took some cucumbers mistakenly.D. She stole something withoutSharon’s permission.11. We can infer from the article that the neighbor’s bread would taste________.A. bitter but tastyB. strange and bitterC. hard and sourD. soft and sweetDYou’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examinetheir relationship to single-use plastic products.At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source（来源）of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that’s part ofVon Wong’s artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate（说明）a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped（倾倒）from a truck all atonce.Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.12. What are Von Wong’s artworks intended for?A. Beautifying the city he lives in.B. Introducing eco-friendly products.C. Drawing public attention to plastic waste.D. Reducing garbage on the beach.13. Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3?A. To show the difficulty of their recycling.B. To explain why they are useful.C. To voice his views on modern art.D. To find a substitute for them.14. What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers?A. Calming.B. Disturbing.C. Refreshing.D. Challenging.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Artists’ Opinions on Plastic SafetyB. Media Interest in Contemporary ArtC. Responsibility Demanded of Big CompaniesD.

We all experience momentary bursts of anger every now and then. For the most part, though, these relatively minor annoyances are easy to deal with, but walking back your anger when you're having a heated conversation with someone is a lot more difficult. There are things you can do in the moment to calm yourself, though.1. Acknowledge that you're angry.When you're angry,you notice it in your body. 32 If you're not physically feeling it, you might hear it in the sound of your voice.Once you notice this, try to adjust your voice. Just as increasing anger can correspond to an increasingly loud voice, so can the opposite. 332. Give yourself a time out.How do you do the exercise above when you're in the middle of a face-to-face conversation? Call a personal timeout. Walking away gives you time to calm down and collect your thoughts before responding. This also aids in decreasing anger.Of course, don't just peace out of the argument. Let whoever you're talking to know that you just need a little physical space.3. Ask yourself what emotion is behind the anger.34 More often than not, anger is a “secondary emotion” we use as a mask or a defense for an entirely different feeling (shame, for instance, or embarrassment).Once you're aware of the real emotions at play, you can communicate it to the person you snapped at. Also, you'd apologize to your co-worker and perhaps consider asking your manager to lighten your workload.4.35Let's say you've taken the advice above, but you're still feeling heated. If so,changing the topic of conversation can also be a good way to cope with anger in the moment. 36 If you were discussing something serious-or something that needs to be explained finally-table the discussion for later or the next day, when you calm down.A. Change the subject of the conversation.B. Stop the conversation with your partner.C. Anger will do damage to your lungs and heart.D.Try responding to your loud voice by gradually lowering it.E.Now that you've calmed down, think about what's motivating your anger.F.Make a joke and reroute the conversation to a safe, calm, enjoyable dialogue.G. Anger will often cause changes in our body, such as muscle tension or sore neck.七选五：32—36 GDEAF山东省实验中学2020-2021学年度第一学期期中考试高二英语试题第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

"It may be missing on the way."With these words,she then rushed out.注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
