21、   You probably think of aggression in its most violent form i.e. shouting matches and fights. Actually, there are varying levels of aggression. There are times when you start to display aggression, but you are not aware of it yourself.【1】

●They believe their opinion is fact

For effective communication to take place it is important to be able to distinguish between opinion and fact.【2】But aggressive people take it one step further. They act as if their opinion is fact, which is telling others that their opinions are irrelevant(不相关的).

●It's all about how it affects them

When something goes wrong, or when considering potential consequences, aggressive people only consider how it influences them. The impact on others is irrelevant to them. 【3】I once knew a girl who, every time she had a quarrel with her boyfriend, used to wake her entire family up so she could tell them how she had been unjustly treated.

●Rapid speech

【4】They are determined to get their point across and have no desire to let the other person offer their input. They want total control of the conversation and are determined that the other person will hear what they have to say.

●Aggressive talking; defensive listening

This refers to the body language that they adopt when they are being aggressive.【5】They may point, spread feet apart with hands on the waist, etc. However, when the other person is speaking they will adopt a more defensive gesture e.g. crossing their arms.

Being familiar with these signs will help you to recognize the aggression quickly, and you will then be able to manage the situation more appropriately.

A．When talking they will likely lean forward.

B．The following are some common signs of aggression.

C．Aggressive people speak fast with little or no pauses.

D．These people are not giving you the opportunity to decline.

E．Offering a suggestion or thoughts on something that has happened is fine.

F．Aggressive people rarely attempt to find workable solutions to problems in life.

G．If something has negative consequences for them, everybody else is expected to suffer the consequences too.

22、   As we live longer and technology continues its rapid development, we can imagine a future where machines will enlarge our human abilities and help us make better life choices, from health to wealth. Through our dialogue and digital pieces, AI will understand our life goals and wishes, our duties and limitations. It will help us plan different life events, so we can spend more time enjoying life’s moments.

The ability for artificial intelligence to understand the complexities and slight differences of human conversation is, however, one hurdle. There are several thousand known living languages in the world today. Adding to the difficulties are the varied ways words are shared and used across different cultures, including grammar, levels of education and styles of the speakers. Google Duplex, the technology supporting Google Assistant, which places phone calls using a natural-sounding human voice instead of a robotic one, is an early attempt to address such challenges in human communications. But these are just initial whispers in voice of AI’s long journey.

Beyond making reservations and conducting simple dialogues, virtual assistants will need to become far more useful and further fit into the parts of our everyday lives. Not only will they need to foresee what we need before we ask, they also need to understand the context of our conversations and react accordingly. Imagine a snow day when school is canceled for the kids. Knowing that you must now stay at home with your children, your phone would remind you, asking if you’d like your meetings moved to the following day. Alternatively, imagine how much more pleasant your journey home from a business trip would be if your phone could automatically arrange for a ride waiting to pick you up at the airport, based on your travel plan, location, and habits. The possibilities are endless.

【1】What do we know about AI?

A.They narrow our abilities. B.They limit our better choice.

C.They don’t know our limitations. D.They help us enjoy life better.

【2】What makes it hard for AI to understand what humans say?

A.Low level of speakers. B.Imperfection of AI.

C.Varieties of languages and cultures. D.Similarities between languages.

【3】Which word can best describe the author’s attitude towards AI?

A.Doubtful. B.Approving.

C.Negative. D.Critical.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A.AI Will Replace Humans

B.AI Will Set Goals for Us.

C.AI Will Be Part of Our Daily Lives.

D.AI Will Meet Challenges.

23、The Chinese people attach great importance to mianzi. There is no corresponding English term for mianzi, but its meaning is somewhere between paying attention to image and honor. In the Chinese language, many derivative(派生的) words and expressions with mianzi as the root have come into being, and all of them reflect important aspects of Chinese culture.

Hao mianzi (to be concerned about image and honor) is widely regarded as a characteristic Chinese cultural feature. When Confucius accepted new students 2,500 years ago, he asked them to give a few kilograms of dried meat as tuition. But the sage was so concerned about mianzi that he called the dried meat presents, not tuition or fees.

Hao mianzi reflects the concept of image and honor. In China, there is a protocol to everything which should be followed to avoid embarrassment. And hao mianzi is all about avoiding embarrassment.

A few months ago, my wife got a phone call from one of her high school classmates living in a neighboring city, inviting her to her son’s wedding. My wife made several phone calls to find out how much the present for the bridegroom should be worth.

In China, when one is invited to attend a wedding, a birthday party or any other special occasion, one is supposed to bring with him or her some present. The values of such presents have been changing with time－four decades ago, it could be an enamel bowl, a thermos flask or a bed sheet but now the best option is cash. The amount should not be too small, or else you could be considered a miser, or too big to become a burden on the receiving party, for he/she has to gift a present of a similar amount in return when the occasion arises.

Such gifts or presents, in Chinese, are called suili, and generally range from a few hundred yuan to more than 1,000 yuan ($156.96), depending on the family’s income.

After my wife found out that the widely accepted sum of suili in the city where her former classmate lived was 600 yuan, she put six 100 yuan bills in an envelope and set off for the neighboring city. Gifting less than 600 yuan would have made my wife diu mianzi (lose face) while by gifting a lot more than that, she could have embarrassed the other guests.

Happy to see my wife, her friend said the fact that she come all the way from Beijing to attend the wedding was so zheng mianzi (face gaining). But her thankful words also implied that if my wife had not attended the wedding, she could have been blamed for bugei mianzi (not giving face).

The Chinese people are very serious about mianzi. There have been reports about immigrant workers spending an entire year’s savings on suili when returning home for Spring Festival during which many weddings are usually held.

But today’s youth do not care much about mianzi. Going Dutch is becoming popular, especially among white collar workers when dining out or traveling together. Also, the youth can always find a good reason to skip ceremonies that require them to gift suili.

For them, mianzi does not depend on how others look at you but on your own level of satisfaction－be it from career achievements or high-quality living.

【1】Why was Confucius’ example referred to in the passage?

A．To show that Confucius was also a meat lover.

B．To identify mianzi as a cultural feature around the world.

C．To honour Confucius’ kindness in accepting students for free.

D．To indicate that Confucius was concerned about his image and honour.

【2】What does the underlined word “protocol” mean?

A．practice.

B．taboo.

C．embarrassment.

D．conflict.

【3】What can be implied from the passage?

A．Chinese tend to think suili a must in their life, especially the youth.

B．The values of suili have been settled since decades ago.

C．Chinese think of suili as an inevitable burden of life.

D．Suili can also be treated as a derivative word with mianzi.

24、   Nowadays, people have been using technology more than ever to stay connected to the outside world. Scammers (诈骗犯）are keyed into the facts and are taking advantage. It’s the classic tech-support scam, and it is spreading widely right now.

How it works

• You receive a phone call from what appears to be Microsoft or another big tech company, claiming they detected a virus on your device that requires your immediate attention.

• Or you sit down to your device to find a pop-up message warning that your device is infected and you need to call the number in the message or click a link right away.

• A “technician” explains the severity of the issue, requests remote access to your device and then shows you “the problem.”

• The “technician” can fix your problem for a fee, and then may offer you a monthly subscription to keep your device safe.

• The “technician” often calls back months later, offers you a refund and asks for your bank account information to deposit the money.

How to keep safe from getting scammed

• Apple, Microsoft, and other reputable tech companies do not contact customers about “tech support,” unless the customer starts communication.

• If a pop-up or error message appears with a phone number, don’t call the number. Error and warning messages never include phone numbers.

• Never pay for tech support or other services with a money transfer app, gift card, cash reload card, or wire transfer.

• Never trust any company — tech or otherwise — requesting personal or financial information.

• Keep your security software, browser, and operating system up to date, and consider using your browser’s popup blocker.
