As a Canadian li
17、ving in China for a year, I was curious to see what kind of advice a Chinese writer giving on this matter.One piece of advice really caught my attention and, I must say, made me feel quite angry. In the writers opinion, foreigners are an opportunity (机会) to improve your oral English; whenever you se
18、e a foreigner, American or English, you should practise speaking English with him or her. If the foreigner doesnt want to answer your questions, then he or she is a rude person who you wouldnt want to spend time with anyway. I think this advice is not only incorrect, but also may harm the relationsh
19、ip between Chinese and foreigners in China.Like most other Lao Wai living in China, I know how lonely one can sometimes feel living in a culture different from our own familiar (熟悉的) ways. However, I simply accept as part of being here. So far my time in China has been rewarding. I have improved my
20、Chinese language skills, learned about one of the fastest developing countries in the world today and made some very close Chinese friends.However, I have also met many Chinese people who consider me only as an opportunity to improve their oral English. I have had people following me from town to my

I have had people asking me non-stop questions for half an hour at the weekly English Corner .Friendship for a lot of foreigners
22、 is about spending time with someone whose company (陪伴) they really enjoy. So if there is any advice to give on making and keeping friendships with foreigners, I would say that it is this: Treat foreigners as people, not opportunities. Expect to make friendships step by step, over a period of time,

28、江苏常州统考中考真题）Looking at art should be like walking in the countryside. You may not know exactly where you are, what bird is making that strange sound, or what the hill ahead of you is called, but thats part of the fun of it. You dont need to know these things to feel the beauty of nature.Of course, if
29、 you do know your birds, trees and local history, a walk can be more attractive. Yet such knowledge comes slowly. It is picked up through experience. A true knowledge of nature cannot just be given to you through an app on your phone. Imagine pointing your phone at the hill and getting plenty of inf

Yet it is best done when youre away from the art itself, so that even when you return, the work still feels fresh.Anyone who thinks knowing some dates and details makes you better understa
33、nd a work of art is wrong. We all need to put aside our screens and our supposed knowledge when we look at art. Let the paintings flow in; let your intuitions(直觉) fly off.

37、 money. In San Diego recently $325,000 was spent on inventing a robotic squirrel to do some scientific experiments. The research proved that squirrels are able to scare away snakes by wagging (摇动) their tails. Do you need a robotic squirrel to work this out?What about AIBO, a robotic pet, developed
38、in Japan? In Japanese aibou means “buddy”. These pets have been developed at huge cost mainly to provide entertainment. Theyve been used in movies and music videos. Universities have used them for educational purposes. However, in 2006 the company stopped producing these robotic pets in order to sav

It speaks 19 languages and has its own personality. It can tell children a story, help in the classroom or the home, or act as a companion t

43、all of the reading goals (目标) that we set for ourselves. Luckily, we have mobile apps such as Latte Read and GetAbstract to provide abstracts (梗概) of a text.

It took me around ten years to get through. Thomas Manns difficult The Magic Mountain took me about six months to read; Ayn Rands Atlas S
45、hrugged made me very bored most of the time. Reading a book, whether it is good or bad, is a formative (建设性的) experience. There are plenty of books which I probably shouldnt have taken the time to read. But the challenge of living for a time in the thoughts and experiences of a different history or
46、character makes even the worst book a valuable effort.Whenever I finish the last line of a book and slowly close it, I like to sit there and think over its lines with a mix of nostalgia (怀旧之情) and pride. I then take the book in hand and find a place for it on my bookshelf. When I step back and look
47、at the books on my shelf, it is as if I am looking at the history of the different lives that I have lived.Abstracts are useful as a tool to an end, but reading the actual (真正的) book is something much richer. Reading, like anything else in life, is much more about the journey than it ever was the de

That next person then tells another friend, family member, or colleague (同事). And so a chain of information is created.Usually, advertisers ta
53、lk about how good their product is Although they say things like, “Studies show that our product is the best.” or “Everyone loves this product.” It can sound unconvincing. Its much more believable to hear about a product from a family, member or friend who has used it and liked a Our loved ones opin

Its cost-effective (after all, its free) and a company doesnt have to create a complex business plan to do it. Here is some advice for small businesses about word-of

80、ey and other resources just to get people there, let alone set up a place for them to live. Its not even clear if humans could survive on Mars.

But why are certain sounds more common than other
86、s? A ground-breaking, five-year study shows that diet-related changes in human bite led to new speech sounds that are now found in half the worlds languages. More than 30 years ago, the scholar Charles Hockett noted that speech sounds called labiodentals, such as “f” and “v”, were more common in the
87、 languages of societies that ate softer foods. Now a team of researchers led by Damin Blasi at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, has found how and why this trend arose. They discovered that the upper and lower front teeth of ancient human adults were aligned(对齐), making it hard to produce labio
88、dentals, which are formed by touching the lower lip to the upper teeth. Later, our jaws changed to an overbite structure(结构), making it easier to produce such sounds. The team showed that this change in bite was connected with the development of agriculture in the Neolithic period. Food became easie
89、r to chew at this point. The jawbone didnt have to do as much work and so didnt grow to be so large. Analyses of a language database also confirmed that there was a global change in the sound of world languages after the Neolithic age, with the use of “f” and “v” increasing remarkably during the las
90、t few thousand years. These sounds are still not found in the languages of many hunter-gatherer people today. This research overturns the popular view that all human speech sounds were present when human beings evolved around 300,000 years ago. “The set of speech sounds we use has not necessarily re
91、mained stable since the appearance of human beings, but rather the huge variety of speech sounds that we find today is the product of a complex interplay of things like biological change and cultural evolution,” said Steven Moran, a member of the research team.39Which aspect of the human speech soun
92、d does Damin Blasis research focus on?AIts variety.BIts distribution.CIts quantity.DIts development.40Why was it difficult for ancient human adults to produce labiodentals?AThey had fewer upper teeth than lower teeth.BThey could not open and close their lips easily.CTheir jaws were not conveniently
93、structured.DTheir lower front teeth were not large enough.41What is paragraph 5 mainly about?ASupporting evidence for the research results.BPotential application of the research findings.CA further explanation of the research methods.DA reasonable doubt about the research process.42What does Steven

96、nese government said online. This news got us thinking. Should the government be responsible for limiting how much time kids spend online? Here are some students opinions. Esme McNeely, 11The government should not set screen-time limits. That decision should be up to parents. Some children need to u
97、se screens for homework. And during the COVID-19, one of the only ways to talk to friends was online. Government limits would not be fair to people who are careful with their screen time. Lucas Barone, 11The government should not limit screen time. A 2021 study from the University of Colorado Boulde
98、r says screen time might be less harmful to kids than people think. Some parents worry that children online too much wont make friends. But the study reports that screen time can actually improve kids friendships. In fact, screen time can be educational. I use websites to read and to learn math. Xiu
99、han Zhu, 9I think the government should take action and limit screen time for kids. Too much screen time can lead to tiredness and less social time.

Soc
104、iologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their child
105、ren. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the childrens IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And the more ch
106、ildren there are, the less question-asking there is.”The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their brothers and sisters. Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldes
107、t child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are its the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation
