The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, uneasiness or worry. Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable; therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person’s needs.
Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops, what may be implied(暗示) is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for reflection.
Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority. Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient’s silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily.
A nurse who understands the healing(治愈) value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures. 24．What does the author say about silence in conversations?
A．It implies anger. B．It promotes friendship.
C．It is culture-specific. D．It is content-based. 25．Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought? A．The Russians. B．The French. C．The Mexicans. D．The Chinese.
26．What does the author advise nurses to do about silence?
A．Let it continue as the patient pleases. B．Break it while treating patients.
C．Evaluate its harm to patients. D．Make use of its healing effects. 27．What may be the best title for the text?
A．Sound and Silence B．What It Means to Be Silent C．Silence to Native Americans D．Speech Is Silver; Silence Is Gold
C
Nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young. There are many reasons for this, but the result is the same: increasing numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children. And more old people who are lonely and feel use- less, along with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support. It’s a major problem in many societies.
That’s why intergenerational programs, designed to bring the old and the young together, are growing in popularity all over the world, supported by UNESCO and other local and international organizations. There are examples of successful initiatives all over the world. Using young people to teach IT skills to older people is one obvious example. Using old people as volunteer assistants in schools is another, perhaps reading with children who need extra attention.
One successful scheme in France is combining a residential home for the elderly with a crèche / nursery school in the same building. The children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities such as music, painting, gardening and caring for the pets which the residents are encouraged to keep. In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children and, if a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always a kind lap to sit on and a cuddle (依偎). There are trips out and birthday parties too.
The advantages are enormous for everyone concerned. The children are happy because they get a lot more individual attention and respond well because someone has time for them. They also learn that old people are not different or frightening in any
way. And of course, they see illness and death and learn to accept them. The residents are happy because they feel useful and needed. They are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they take more interest in their appearance too. And the staff are happy because they see an improvement in the physical and psychological health of the residents and have an army of assistants to help with the children.
28．What is the social problem talked about in Paragraph 1?
A．A generation gap. B．Caring for children.
C．The support for the aged. D．Intergenerational contact. 29．What do the programs mentioned in Paragraph 2 aim to do?
A．Make the old take care of children.
B．Help the old people learn new things.
C．Encourage the young to care for the old.
D．Increase contact between the old and the young.
30．What is special about the scheme in France?
A．Joining an elderly house with a kindergarten.
B．Hiring old people as child-care workers.
C．Helping children face misfortunes bravely.
D．Using children to accompany the old.
31．In which aspect does the scheme benefit the old?
A．It builds up their strength. B．They live a healthier life.
C．It creates a family atmosphere. D．They are closer to their relatives.
D
A new “smart bin” could mean the end of environment-conscious families spending hours sorting tins, cartons, bottles, and cardboard for recycling. The invention, which automatically sorts rubbish into recycling categories, is being trialed in Poland and is set to go on sale in the UK within a few years.
The bin, designed by start-up company Bin. E, recognizes different types of waste
via a system positioned inside the bin which uses sensors, image recognition and artificial intelligence. Once waste is placed inside, the camera and sensors identify its type and place it in one of the smaller bins. Then it compresses (压缩) the waste so it occupies less space.
News of the launch showed that more than a million households are being forced to accept bin collections every three or four weeks, because councils are trying to force them to recycle more. Data collected by The Telegraph has showed at least 18 areas have moved or will shortly be moving to three-weekly rubbish collections, while a further three have adopted or are trialing four-weekly collections. While reducing general bin collections, councils are increasing the frequency of recycling collections in a bid to change people’s behavior. It is thought that the bin could be stocked by department stores such as John Lewis, which said it is introducing new hi-tech recycling bins to satisfy increasing customer appetite for them. Matt Thomas, a utility (家用设施) seller at John Lewis, said, “We’ve recently seen a jump in specialist bins sales, with a 25 percent increase in the last few months alone. We have noticed our customers are becoming more and more sustainability focused, choosing dual compartment (双格) recycling bins that make it far easier to recycle different types of waste. In response to this demand, we are really excited to introduce a new voice and sensor activated smart bin this autumn / winter season — designed to use new technology to make recycling more efficient and functional for the everyday h ome.”
32．What can we know about the smart bin?
A．It has entered the UK market.
B．It breaks up the garbage quickly.
C．It can classify different kinds of rubbish.
D．It expands its space with the increase of garbage.
33．What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A．The cost of producing the bins has raised.
B．The smart bins have been the best sellers.
C．The stores have sold out the new bins in a very short time.
D．The sales volume of the recycling bins has increased suddenly.
34．What can we i nfer from Matt Thomas’ words?
A．People can get the smart bins at a low price.
B．People always spend much time in rubbish collections.
C．More and more hi-tech bins are designed for customers.
D．People pay more attention to environmental protection than before.
35．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Smart Bins in the United Kingdom
B．Councils’ Call for Rubbish Collection
C．A Smart Bin That Sorts Different Rubbish
D．The Good News to Environment - Conscious Families
第二节（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。

As parents, sometimes it may feel like all your kids do is to sit in front of a screen. 36 If we’re realistic, that’s probably not going to happen. But if you keep things properly managed, screen time can be beneficial.
Acknowledge that screens aren’t all bad.
37 Watching television or playing games on the computer can be fun, entertaining and a good way to relax. There are also many programs, games and apps that are educational and your children will likely have some homework to do on a computer.
38
While screens can be beneficial, if your kids spend too much time in front of them they will miss out on other activities. Things like playing outdoors, reading and doing sports are extremely important for balance. Face-to-face communication with family and friends teaches valuable social skills —something that can’t be learnt via social media.
Educate yourself.
To strike the right screen time balance for your house, start by learning what technology is around, what it’s best used for and for the ages it’s appropriate.
39 Other parents might be able to offer some insight(见解)too.
Set limits for your kids and yourself.
It’s a good idea to put some rules in place around screen time. Let your kids know how they are allowed to use screens — what for, when and for how long. 40 They’ll be more receptive to the rules if they’ve had input. Of course, let the screen-time limits you set for your kids be a guide for yourself as well.
A. Don’t let screens take over.
B. Manage your family’s screen time.
C. You can do your own research or talk to your kids about it.
D. Discuss these rules as a family so your kids can have a say too.
E. Children and teenagers can benefit from age-appropriate technology.
F. You might even feel like you want to ban screens from your home altogether.
G. If you’re eating dinner, set the work emails aside and chat about your day
as a family.

Last fall, after a day of perfect weather, my brother and I decided to build a stick shelter and sleep outside. But it was a little of more challenging than we original thought. The biggest problem was finding sticks — they are either too wet nor too short. So we used our tent poles. An hour late, it was finished. They looked great on the outside and quite comfortable on the inside. Just when we were ready for a comfortable night of sleep, it started to rain. But we were preparing. We brought our rain jackets, that kept us dry and allowed us to fall sleep comfortably. It didn’t turn out perfect, but we had great time in our shelter.

Dear Jim,
How time flies! You asked me how to spend my summer vacation in your last email. As you know, I finished my college entrance exams not long ago. Now I have nearly three months rest, when I intend to have a meaningful summer vacation.
First of all, I want to learn to drive to get a driving license after a few day s’rest, which is a very popular activity among Chinese youngsters. Then, I will attend some English courses to improve my oral English. Besides, I have enough time to pay a visit to some tourist attractions in Changchun in August, which will make my vacation colorful.
This is my plan for the summer vacation. What about your exams and your summer days? I’m looking forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Yours,
Li Hua。
