【題目】How to express yourself to others

Every person on the planet communicates in some fashion. And one of the hardest things to do when you're communicating with someone is expressing yourself. After all, words have the power to give life and death... especially in relationships. 1

If you have a fear of people, people will avoid you. It's a vicious cycle(惡性循環(huán)). You avoid people because you fear that they will hurt you. People see your coldness, and either think the worst that you are stuck-up(傲慢的)),or satisfy your desire and leave you alone. 2 You'll have a hard time getting close to them when you bottle everything up inside. Your relationships will all be shallow.

Your inability to express yourself will haunt(縈繞于)you in time of trouble. You'll need help, and you'll want help, but you won't seek it. You'll hide. So, no one helps you. Then you grow bitter and angry. What's more, it can cause isolation. You build walls around your emotions and people consequently leave you alone. Gradually, your life will be empty. Life is relationships. 3

However, reading will help you learn how other people express themselves. Pay attention to word usage, diction(措詞),flow, voice and tones. These will give you ideas of expressing yourself. 4 They'll provide you with many ways of expressing your emotions and help you express yourself better.

Besides, you can do some writing on your own. Start a novel. Write letters. Keep a journal or diary. You'll find that writing helps you to sort through your thoughts. Writing gives you focus and direction.

5 You can't catch it from someone who has it. It is the spiritual state of mind that is the direct result of fear. There is really only one type of fear and that is the fear of the unknown. Don't fear what other people think about you. Honestly, your imagination will create far worse imagination than what most people will ever think.

A.Social anxiety is not a disease.

B.That will make them feel needed.

C.So it is important that you learn to express yourself.

D.All of these factors have some relationship to happiness.

E.Look up words that you've never seen before and use them.

F.The stronger your relationships are, the more joy you'll have in life.

G.When you can't open up to people, they will feel that you are unapproachable.

【題目】 Cryonics is the practice of cooling dead organic tissue. This is used on humans or animals that have recently died. The hope is to bring them back to life in the near future. By law, it can only be performed on humans after they are legally dead. Many scientists and doctors think cryonics is totally morally unacceptable. However, there are also many who support cryonics.

Supporters of cryonics hope that future technology will improve. Molecular technology is especially hoped to reverse (逆轉(zhuǎn)) the early stages of clinical death. It is hoped that this will enable the repair of tissue on a very tiny level. It could also allow damaged tissues and organs to regenerate. They also assume that disease and aging will one day be reversible.

These supporters want to store the memory and identity from the brain of people who have recently died. Cryonics attempts to do this by using liquid that preserves the brain. If this is done before cooling, it will prevent injury. This cooling liquid saves the fine cell structures of the brain where memory and identity exist.

Critics of cryonics think this process is a waste of time and money. They base their opinions on the current level of science. It is true that cells, tissues, blood vessels, and some small animal organs can be reversibly preserved. Some frogs can even survive for a few months in a partially frozen state if they are kept a few degrees above freezing. But this is not true cryopreservation. There is no proof that the identity and memory of a person can be restored after death has occurred.

Critics also think that if it were possible to bring dead people back to life, it would cause many social problems. Critics worry it would cause a huge overpopulation problem. Many also think trying to reverse death is immoral because it is against the will of their God.

1What can we know about cryonics from paragraph 1?

A.Cryonics is used before people's death.

B.All scientists aren't in favor of the use of cryonics.

C.Laws forbid the use of cryonics on legally dead people.

D.Cryonics tries to cool dead organic tissue by using liquid.

2What does the underlined word 'regenerate' in paragraph 2 mean?

A.copy.B.return.

C.freeze.D.regrow.

3Why do critics oppose the use of cryonics?

A.It will make people's memory lost.

B.Injury will occur during the process.

C.There is scientific uncertainty about it.

D.It goes along with their religious belief.

4What is the main idea of the text?

A.The use of cryonics has a bright future.

B.Cryonics is still a controversial practice.

C.The practice of cryonics is limited by law.

D.There is an advance in medical technology.

【題目】Most Visited European Destinations for Chinese Tourists

Bicester Village

According to a 2019 Visit Britain report, over 275,000 Chinese tourists visit the UK every year. And where do they go? It claimed that “they are mostly interested in symbolic elements: the Royal Family, Shakespeare, Sherlock Holmes, Harry Potter and Downton Abbey”.

Then there’s the shopping. Bicester Village, a vast retail estate on the outskirts of the Oxfordshire town, is the second most visited UK attraction for Chinese tourists after Buckingham Palace, and three in four Chinese visitors head there.

King’s College, Cambridge

A famous tree, for Chinese people at least, can be found in King’s College, Cambridge. The willow(柳樹), regarded to be a holy thing to lost youth, is mentioned in a much-loved poem by Xu Zhimo, who spent a year studying at King’s College - Taking Leave of Cambridge Again.

Bonn

The former West German capital is another popular port of call. Chinese love classical music, particularly Beethoven, making his birthplace an obvious highlight of any trip to Europe. The city’s tourist board offers maps in three foreign languages: English, Chinese and Japanese.

Verona

Both British and Chinese travelers flock to Venice, Rome and Florence, but Verona typically appears higher on the wish lists of China’s tourists. That’s because of the country’s adoration of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The play is popular on UK shores, of course, but the love is doubled in China as it was among the first of the Shakespeare’s works to be translated into Chinese Mandarin. Its plot bears a striking resemblance(相似之處) to a famous Chinese folk tale, The Butterfly Lovers. Expect to see queues at the popular House of Juliet on Via Cappello (a statue of the character stands beneath her balcony).

1Which is most visited destination for Chinese tourists?

A.Bicester Village.B.Buckingham Palace.

C.King’s College.D.Cambridge.

2Which place are the Chinese music fans likely to go?

A.Bicester Village.B.King’s College, Cambridge.

C.Bonn.D.Verona.

3Which are adored by Chinese tourists who love literature?

A.Bicester Village and Bonn.B.Bicester Village and King’s College, Cambridge.

C.Verona and Bonn.D.King’s College, Cambridge and Verona.
