10、dly shows that people generally make up their minds whether to help or hinder(阻碍) you, based on whether they like you or not. It is human nature. What can you do about it? You need to make a good impression on others to ensure they like you and give you what you want. Research again shows that peopl
11、e give opportunities to the people they like best. In fact, most people make up their minds about other people in the first five minutes or less of meeting someone. These are called first impressions or “moments of truth”.Once they make up their minds, they tend to be very reluctant to change their
12、opinions. You hardly have room for error when making a first impression on a new acquaintance.

13、nage the first few minutes of your interaction. This includes doing your homework to gather information and researching all possible issues so you will know how to address them if the other party should raise them unexpectedly.It is amazing how poorly some people can come across at the beginning.

18、d first impression.CIt seems like people today are more easily offended than ever before. If smoking in an elevator or talking in a movie theater were normal in the past, they are considered to be rude today. We used to be obliged to answer whatever questions a family elder asked, but now when a pry
19、ing relative asks about our test grades or dream university information that wed rather keep to ourselves we feel offended, even if they mean well.The boundary between “politeness” and “rudeness” has changed over the years, especially among young people.But this change doesnt just go one way things
20、that used to be considered rude may also go across to the other side of the boundary. For example, to stand up for themselves, some youths may try to make statements by using phone cases printed with phrases like “Leave me alone” or “None of your business”.

They are also freer than previous generations, more eager to explore the world and r
23、efuse to be tied down by elders rules.But there are, of course, people who think that millennials have gone too far to defend their own needs. An earlier Time article called millennials the “Me Me Me Generation”, saying that they are self-involved, less grateful and less tolerant of people.But Laure
24、n Martin, a lifestyle writer in the US, and a millennial herself, has a theory.“Our generation is an anomaly (与众不同的事物),” she wrote on Elite Daily. “We refuse to do things their way, so they call us entitled. We refuse to sit in cubicles, so they call us spoiled. We refuse to follow their plans, so t
25、hey call us stubborn. What they are slowly realizing, however, is were not lazy, stubborn or entitled. We just refuse to accept things as theyre given to us.”8. What is the article mainly about?A. Why people today are more easily offended.B. The definition of “politeness” and “rudeness”.C. The moral
26、ity of millennials and some views on it.D. Key characteristics of the millennial generation.9. What can we conclude from the first four paragraphs?A.

29、DWithout sharp reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, climate change threatens future Winter Olympic Games because their locations would be too warm to host the events, a new study has found.If the worlds high emissions continue their trend, by the 2080s all but one of the 21 cities that previously
30、 hosted the Winter Games - Sapporo, Japan - would not be able to do so again. Among them, 6 cities would be considered “marginal” while 14 would even be seen “unreliable” meaning the right conditions for snow and athlete safety cannot be met.But that wont necessarily happen if the world takes urgent
31、 action and follows the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, according to Daniel Scott, the lead researcher for the University of Waterloos report. Under that deal, nearly 200 countries agreed to greatly cut their collective greenhouse emissions.Athletes and coaches surveyed by the researchers said they re
32、 already seeing the effect climate change has on their sports. “Some of the coaches that did the survey have been coaches in the sport for 30 years,” Scott said. “Theyve traveled the world, back to the same competitions, and theyve seen that certain competitions dont happen, as regularly or uninterr
33、uptedly as they used to because of warmer temperatures.”The Summer Olympics are also feeling the effects of climate change. Tokyos Olympic and Paralympic Games are likely one ofif notthe hottest and most humid Games on record. Daily temperatures reached 80F high with high humidity (湿度) that could ma
34、ke it feel like 100F.But winter sports seem more strongly influenced by the impact of a warmer world. During the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi Russia, skiers were overheating in the same way a marathon runner would at nearly 90F weather. Due to the great impact, the study makes us worry that outdoor
35、 games may have to move indoors or be held at a different time of year altogether in order to accommodate higher temperatures.12. What does the underlined word “marginal” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Almost unqualified.B. Pretty satisfactory.C. Rather unpopular.D. Quite suitable.13. Why are Tokyo

To compare summer and winter Olympics14. What is the authors attitude to the finding of the study?A. Conservative.B. Tolerant.C. Optimistic.
37、D. Concerned.15. What does the text mainly talk about?A. Global climate changes.B. Greenhouse gas emissions.C. The Winter Olympics crisis.D. The future Olympic Games.第二节：补全短文(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10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，选项中有两项为多余选项。Why is Eating Colourful Food Good for You?Most of us are faced with
