21、 British people are famous for apologizing in almost every situation. Whether they are apologizing for asking a question, for their bad weather or because they sneezed, they are probably the number-one nation for apologies.
Brits pride themselves on their polite manners towards one another in public. As a result, they often use the word “sorry” quite a lot---even when they don’t really mean it! Usually, if they want to ask a stranger for the time, they would start by saying “Sorry to bother you. Do you know what time it is?” If they are five minutes late for an appointment, they would generally greet the person by saying “Sorry, I’m late!”
That they say sorry does not only mean they feel sad for someone else because of their problems or misfortunes. Another main dictionary definition of “sorry” is feeling regret because they have done something wrong. And now, think about this. Normally, when they want to ask a stranger a question, they start with “Sorry to disturb you”. In this situation, they aren’t saying sorry because they feel sad for that person or because they feel regret.
In the British culture, apologizing, in general, is a way to be polite, especially to people who they don’t know very well. Furthermore, it also can bring them other benefits in their daily life. In a recent experiment, an actor approached different strangers on a rainy day to ask if he could use their mobile phones to make a call. When he approached one group of strangers and asked them without apologizing first, he was only 9% successful in borrowing their phones. However, when he apologized to another group of strangers about the bad weather before asking if he could use their mobile phones, he was 47% successful.
【1】Why do British people say “sorry” so much?
A.To respect others.
B.To show their politeness.
C.To express their regret.
D.To apologize for their mistakes.
【2】What can we infer about the word “sorry” from the third paragraph?
A.It is used in more situations than before.
B.It is embarrassing to use sorry improperly.
C.It has different meanings in different situations.
D.It meaning is always hard to understand.
【3】What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.The benefits of saying “sorry”.
B.The ways of borrowing a phone.
C.The secrets to dealing with strangers.
D.The keys to being a polite man.

23、 When it comes to judgment of their bodies, women can’t win. People often make “fat jokes”, but fat-shaming is no laughing matter; neither is fit-shaming. I spoke to two women who were shamed for being fat, and then, after losing weight, shamed for being fit.
Sarah Moore is a 29-year-old mother of three from Indiana, US. She became a personal trainer after losing more than 45 kg. She remembers the fat-shaming she bore before her weight loss. When waiting to get on a roller coaster once, people behind her were complaining about the wait, and the attendant (服务人员) told them, “Don’t worry. She’s not going to fit on here, and you’ll be next.” But after losing weight, Moore said people commented on her body even more. “Now I get comments like, ‘Are you sure you can eat that?’ because they’re worried I’ll regain the weight,” she said. How does it make her feel? “Fat-shaming made me feel sad and helpless, and fit-shaming makes me angry,” she said.
Changes in body weight can also influence relationships. It can upset the balance because others can get jealous. People who lose weight can experience personality changes, such as an increase in confidence, which also influences relationships.
Fit-shaming has been harder to handle for Andrea Sereda, a 38-year-old social worker in Canada. She said judgment of her body is something she’s faced for years. Sereda said that when she was 9, her grandfather told her at a birthday party, “I don’t think you should eat cake,” and made comments about how many calories each bite contained as she ate it. She also experienced similar things in college. The judgment of Sereda’s body increased after she lost 57 kg. “It’s worse with people who knew me from before,” Sereda said. “People constantly say, ‘You’re so skinny now you’re going to disappear.’” It was mostly friends making such comments. Closer friends seemed to compare their own bodies negatively to Sereda’s new physique (体型). “I was afraid of going out and having to field all these comments,” Sereda said. “I had to learn how to handle it.”
Let us try to understand that just because someone has lost weight, it doesn’t make them fair game for commentary on their new shape. Everyone deserves to live free of being body shamed, regardless of how they look.
【1】Sarah Moore is shamed for being fit after losing weight mainly because ________.
A.people still judge her new body shape
B.she lost too much weight after her diet
C.her personality changed for the better
D.people are all jealous of her new look
【2】The example of Andrea Sereda is used to ________.
A.explain what pushes women to lose weight
B.show the negative effects of fit shaming
C.suggest what can be done to handle fat shaming
D.show the difficulties overweight women face
【3】What would be a proper way to treat those who have lost weight?
A.To appreciate their new body shape.
B.To stop commenting on their physique.
C.To encourage them to maintain their shape.
D.To remind them to be careful with their diet.
24、The pink and green buoys(浮标)moved gently over the surface of the water as Catherine Puckett steered(操纵)her boat towards them. Underneath the area, Ms Puckett plants kelp-a type of seaweed-on long ropes that are like washing lines. In a good year she harvests about five tonnes of the stuff.
Seaweed has long been a mainstay(支柱)of Japanese cuisine, but it is now catching on in America. Dieticians(营养师)praise kelp's high nutritional value and its many uses in the kitchen. Restaurants offer kelp salads.
Seaweed also owes its rising popularity to something else. Research has shown that it restores underwater habitats and helps to reduce the effects of climate change.
Seaweed farming is attracting newcomers, especially women, to the seafood industry. GreenWave, a non-profit, has a waiting list of about 8, 000 people for its ocean-farming programme.
People, such as Suzie Flores, are switching careers. Before opening her kelp farm in 2017, she was a manager at a higher-education software company. Bren Smith, founder of GreenWave, says one reason ocean faming attracts newcomers is that starting a seaweed farm is easier than becoming a commercial fisherman, which requires permits that come in limited numbers and can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
For kelp farmers, however, getting the required permits can be a process involving numerous state agencies. Ms Flores says that outside of Maine(缅因州), plants to process the seaweed crop are limited. Ms Puckett has to harvest her crop within a five-hour window to get it on a ferry(渡船)before noon(she hopes to build her own processing plant on the island). And farmers sometimes have to deal with people who complain that the farming gear, though mostly underwater, spoils the view from their seafront villas(别墅).
The kelp industry is still young and farming seaweed is not always profitable. But, says Ms Flores, “I find it to be very fulfilling. You are growing food that is healthy for the environment and healthy for people. ”
【1】What's Catherine Puckett?
A.A fisherman.

【2】Why does ocean farming attract newcomers?
A.Fishing is no longer permitted.
B.It's not difficult to enter seafood industry.
C.A seaweed farm can be started at no cost.

【3】What can we conclude from Paragraph 6?
A.Kelp farmers face some difficulties.
B.Kelp farmers complain about the ocean view.
C.Kelp farmers harvest their crop in the afternoon.
D.Kelp farmers process seaweeds in seafront villas.
【4】What's Ms Flores' attitude towards the kelp industry?
A.Worried.
B.Doubtful.
C.Positive.
D.Unclear.
