26、 “People are ruder today because they are rushed and more ‘time poor’ than ever before,” says Patsy Rowe, “Manners_have_fallen_off_the_radar(雷达).” Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wonder more people don't wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint(抱怨)about the noise. Here are some examples of rudeness.
Some people prefer to do almost everything over the Internet. To them, dealing with an actual human needs more patience. It feels very slow because humans don't work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends, you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life-changing news, so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse, some people even tend to send anonymous(匿名的) rude messages by email.
However, rudeness is never acceptable. Don't assume it is OK to be rude if the person you're in touch with won't recognize you. If you have something awful to say, have the courage to face the person and say it, write a letter or email and sign it, or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.(令人厌恶的)
We shouldn't blame technology for our shortcomings. Technology is here to help us,but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings. People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more helpful if we'd publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them.
【1】What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?
A.People can tell good from bad behavior.
B.Radar is able to observe human behavior.
C.People care little about their behavior.
D.Radar can be used to predict human behavior.
【2】Some people are less willing to deal with humans because ________.
A.they are becoming less patient
B.they are growing too independent
C.they have to handle many important messages
D.they have to follow an evolutionary step backward
【3】The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages is ________.
A.ridiculous
B.disgusting
C.acceptable
D.reasonable
【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.We should applaud (为喝彩) good behavior.
B.Technology can never be blamed.
C.We should keep pointing out mistakes.
D.Technology will take over our lives one day.
27、 You may be able to answer all of the questions the interviewer throws at you, and show a wealth of knowledge about the company in question. 【1】 During the job interview preparation stage, body language can easily be neglected (忽视).The way we present ourselves during an interview may betray our actual abilities. 【2】 Take a look at the, most common body language mistakes to avoid during your next interview:

28、Do you know that truck driving is one of the unhealthiest professions? Obesity, high blood pressure, limited physical activity, fewer than six hours of sleep per day … In a national survey, 61 percent of long-haul truck drivers have two or more of these health issues. I know what that’s like because for nearly four years, I was a truck driver for Prime Inc., one of the largest trucking companies in America.
Now I do something different: I’m the driver health and fitness coach for Prime, an unusual occupation, especially for a Yale graduate with a philosophy degree. So how did I end up here? Because I’ve never done what was expected.
When I was a kid, I went in the sport of swimming. I kept winning all those years. The culmination (巅峰) of my swimming career was at our meet against Harvard and Princeton University when I was at Yale. We ended up winning the relay and, with it, a share of the Ivy championship.
But I didn’t go all the way down the road. By nature I wanted to explore the world and find out who I was meant to be, so for the next 15 years, I traveled Europe, the Caribbean, Africa, working odd jobs. In my mid-thirties, I was tired of scraping by (勉强维持). I couldn’t imagine myself in a nine-to-five office job. A friend who was a truck driver suggested I try his line of work. Then I signed up with Prime Inc.
I’d weighed 140 pounds all my adult life, but in just two months of driving, I’d gained 15 pounds. I definitely wasn’t feeling good. In trucking, it’s all about the delivery schedule. Every second counts. How was I going to fit in working out?
There was only one fix. Anytime I had a few minutes, I worked out. Burpees (立卧撑), mountain climbers, jump-tucks … Some drivers came up to me and said, “Man, I really need to be doing this. Can you show me?” Then I realized my new routine wasn’t just for me. It meant to help other people find their way to health.
Soon I drew up a proposal and became the in-house health and fitness coach in Prime. For once, I’m doing what’s expected of me. And I’ve never felt more fulfilled.

29、Most people say “yes” much more readily than “no”.
A friend is moving house this weekend and would like some help, and you agree. But, what you really wanted was a couple of quiet days relaxing at home. Or a roommate spends the entire weekends playing video games and wants to borrow your homework for “reference”. But, you’ve just finished it after taking a whole day to work hard.
Many people say “yes” to those kinds of requests. They tend not to consider their own interests and feelings, and are often angry with themselves afterwards.
Saying “no” requires courage and considerable practice, in fact, according to psychologists.
“Everyone wants to be liked,” says Gabriel Steinki, a German psychologist. “Saying ‘no’ risk losing the affection of the person asking the favor or even a job.”
The result is that many people say “yes” just for keeping the peace. But experts say this is regrettable. Anyone should have the right to say “no”.
In fact, rejecting a request can even help to strengthen a relationship because it expresses a true feeling.
But, for people used to agreeing to every request, changing can be a long and uncomfortable learning process.
Most people believe that “If I say ‘no’, I’ll lose the affection of the person. But the affection is important to me.” This way of thinking can be replaced by this “If he only likes me because I always do what suits him, then the price of his affection is too high in the long term.”
Steinki says the key is talking to the other person to find a mutual(相互的) solution. “One needs to present the situation from one’s own point of view, and to suggest how the situation can be dealt with to the advantage of both parties. The other person must have the feeling that his interests are being considered.”
When the refusal is not accepted, Steinki advises giving the reasons calmly again until the person gets the message.
【1】 Most people say “yes” much more readily than “no” because ____________.
A. they don’t care about their own interests and feelings
B. they don’t know they will regret afterwards
C. they have already been used to saying “yes”
D. they care more about others’ affection
【2】 According to the writer, what should you do if you want to refuse the other person’s request?
A. Just say you can’t help him.
B. Say sorry to him.
C. Refuse him clearly.
D. Talk to the other person to find a mutual way.
【3】 According to the writer, what should you do if your refusal is not accepted?
A. Say yes to him.
B. Repeat your reason for his acceptance.
C. Just go away.
D. Say no to him.
【4】 What is the best title of the passage?
A. You Need Courage to Say “No”
B. “Yes” More than “No”
C. Nobody Has the Right to Say “No”
D. It’s Easy to Say “Yes”
