1、阅读下面短文,将划线部分译成英文或中文。
Do you know Bach’s Bakery(面包店)? It is a famous bakery in Changsha. Its owner is Uwe Brutzera , a 51-year-old man from Germany. If you go there, you can buy all kinds of fresh bread and cake. 1. To our surprise, most of the workers are deaf people.
Uwe has run the bakery for more than 10 years. He arrived in Changsha for the first time in November 1999. “I remember the airport was very small, and I didn’t see many children on the street.” said Dorothee, Uwe’s wife “In my hometown, 2. 面包是最受欢迎的食物。 You don’t need to communicate with others when making it, so it’s a right job for deaf people.” Uwe said.
Then in 2011, Uwe opened a bakery in Changsha that hires(雇用) deaf people and teaches them bread-making for free, 3. 因为耳聋的人很难找到工作。 So far Uwe’s bakery has trained more than 20 deaf people. Some of them now have become bakers at famous restaurants and star-rated hotels. And 4. they also did a lot to help those deaf kids to learn how to speak.
They miss their own hometown very much. In April 2023, they are going to leave and return to Germany. They need someone who can run the bakery and help the deaf.5. They really make a big difference to these disabled people.

25、Why We Need Each Other
John lives alone but is very social. He has many friends with whom he spends a lot of time and sees frequently. However, he feels sad and disappointed because his friendships don’t seem to meet his needs.
Albert lives alone and has two close friends whom he sees occasionally. When he meets with them, he has a good time talking about current events and sports as well as each other’s thoughts and feelings. When he is not at work or in the company of others, Albert does not feel lonely because he spends time engaging in activities that interest and energize him.
Generally, loneliness is a negative condition resulting from a state of aloneness. People who desire more interpersonal relationships than they actually have can develop feelings of loneliness. How much social connectedness a person needs influences how much aloneness they can accept.
However, it is not the number of social relationships that determines whether people feel lonely. Rather, it is the emotional and cognitive reactions (认知反映) the individual experiences in relation to these connections that play a role in experiencing loneliness. For example, social interactions where an individual feels the following are linked with loneliness: distrust, emotional conflict, lack of social support.
John and Albert both live alone and have friends; yet, the one with the more active social life feels lonely. Why? Being alone can result in negative reactions related to loneliness (e.g., sadness, hopelessness) or it can have positive reactions related to loneliness (e.g., spiritual and creative growth, restoring one’s health and energy). John’s relationships don’t seem to provide him with what he needs or wants—enjoyment or meaning—and so he feels very lonely. On the other hand, Albert seems to benefit from the interactions he has with his friends, and also happens to enjoy his time alone. In addition, Albert doesn’t seem to want more interpersonal connections.
Humans, because of necessity, evolved into social beings. Dependence on and cooperation with each other enhanced our ability to survive under such difficult environmental circumstances. Although the survival threats of these circumstances have lessened in today’s world, people continue to have a need to connect with others. Indeed, the lack of such connections can lead to many problems, including loneliness.
In our advanced digital age, one of the common concerns regarding the increasing emergence of loneliness is how we have become less caring of others. At one time, our very survival depended on trusting and supportive relationships. Basically, it doesn’t matter how technologically experienced we become; emotional connectivity remains a central part of being human. We need each other.
【1】From the passage, we can know that ________.
A.when being alone, one must have negative reaction
B.much social connectedness leads to one’s loneliness
C.continuous emotional connections with others are still needed
D.technological experiencing has replaced emotional connectivity
【2】The writer wants to tell us ________ in writing the fourth paragraph.
A.what determines whether people feel lonely
B.what emotional and cognitive reaction are
C.what are linked with loneliness
D.what we experience in social interactions
【3】What does the underlined word “enhanced” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?
A.Improved.
B.Showed.
C.Kept.
D.Questioned.
【4】Why doesn’t Albert feel lonely when he’s alone?
A.Because he talks about some popular topics with his friends.
B.Because he has the same thoughts with his friends.
C.Because he spends enough time with his friends.
D.Because he benefits from relationships and enjoys his time alone.

27、Do you live in a city? Do you know how cities began? Long long ago, the world had only a few thousand people. These people moved from one place to another. They moved over the land, hunting animals for food.
No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did, their life changed. They did not have to look for food any longer. They could stay in one place and grow it.
People began to live near one another, so the first village was established (建立). Many people came to live in the villages, and these villages became even larger.
When machines appeared, life in the villages changed again. People built factories. More and more people lived near the factories. The cities began.
Today, it’s strange that some people are moving back to small villages. Can you tell me why?
根据短文内容,判断正(A)误(B)。
