26、How to get along with others well
There are a lot of different people in the world, but despite our differences we all want to get along. Getting along with someone isn’t about being their best friend or sharing all their hobbies. 【1】
Be a good listener.
To start a conversation, it is important to listen first, especially when you are in a group. 【2】 First, examine the situation and the conversation, then say whatever you think fit.
【3】
It is not your job to change anyone else. It is not in your power to change anyone else. Let other people live how they want to live. You can only change how you interact with people. You can always maintain a good attitude around them so that your relationship with them might change.
Keep your sense of humor.
A little laughter goes a long way, and a smile ease tension (紧张), whereas a frown (皱眉) can create tension. If someone teases (戏弄) you, try to laugh it off. If someone is frowning, smile at them. 【4】 If you are always cheerful and optimistic, people will cheer up when they see you coming.
Do things for others.
【5】 It could be as simple as bringing in doughnuts for people or offering to help someone who is struggling to carry something. This will show you care about other people and this will make people want to be around you.
A.Being kind is its own reward.
B.Don’t try to change people.
C.Listen to what others have to say.
D.Be mindful of your facial expressions.
E.It is about treating people with respect and care.
F.Don’t take part in a chat when you have just arrived.
G.Humans are social beings, and we enjoy being treated nicely.
27、As a child grows up,you may wonder how you can teach him to become a respectful adult.【1】 A child who learns to respect not only learns to receive respect from others in kind,but also learns to respect himself.
◆ Show him respect.
This is the best way to teach your child how to respect others. Listen to your child attentively and he will learn to listen to you,understanding how important this is in communication.
◆【2】
The more you say“please”and“thank you”to your child, the more likely he will learn to use them.Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation.
◆ Agree to disagree
【3】 Explain your decision so that he will understand you and expect respectful responses. Disagreeing with you doesn’t necessarily mean disobedience.
◆Control your impulse(冲动) to overreact.
When a situation arises,stay calm and keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behavior. 【4】
◆Praise,praise,praise!
So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to correct it that his accomplishments are not celebrated enough. 【5】

B.Respectful behavior is always accompanied by bad behavior as a child.
C.If he sees you lose your temper, he is more likely to respond that way in future.
D.Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life.

F.Seeing a child exhibit respectful behavior, make sure he knows how proud you are of him.

28、 The Southern Ocean is well known for its storms, which can sink ships and cause flooding on distant islands. Now, a new study suggests the biggest waves there already the world's largest—are getting bigger, thanks to faster winds.
For the past 33 years, global satellites have been collecting data on ocean waves—and the winds that drive them. But explaining the data is difficult: different satellites can give different wind speeds.
To reduce those differences, Ian Young and Augustine’s Ribald , at the University of Melbourne in Australia, compared information from different satellites and corrected their data against an independent data set collected by a global network of buoys (浮标) floating in the ocean. When they were done, a trend stood out: since 1985, ocean wind speeds in most of the world have increased between 1 centimeter and 2 centimeters per second per year, leading to increases in wave height in many places.
In the Southern Ocean, the trend is particularly strong. For example, although wind speeds there have increased by 2 centimeters per second each year, the speed of the top 10% fastest winds has increased by 5 centimeters per second per year. And although average (平均的) wave heights there have increased by just 0.3 centimeters per year, the top 10% highest has grown by an average of 1 centimeter per year a growth of 30 centimeters since 1985, they report today in Science.
Young and Ribald have done a good job of cross-checking and double-checking from the three different types of satellite instrument, says Ole Johan at the University of Bergen in Norway. But, he adds, it might be “optimistic” to think that the data now contain no errors Confirming the ire I likely require more work, he believes.
【1】What caused the world’s largest waves in the Southern Ocean?
A.The satellites B.The storms C.The winds D.The floods
【2】Which of the following can best explain “trend” underlined in Paragraph 3?
A.deep thought B.novel method C.special goal D.general direction
【3】What can be learned from the study in the Southern Ocean?
A.Wave heights have risen by 2 centimeters since 1985.
B.Winds speeds have grown by 30 centimeters each year.
C.The top wave heights have slowly fallen since 1985.
D.The top fastest wind speeds have been on the rise.
【4】What does Ole Johan's attitude towards the new study?
A.He thinks highly of it.
B.He takes no interest in it.
C.He shows concern about it.
D.He says no to it.
29、 It was not easy to buy a delicious pineapple more than 10 years ago. The fruits that made it to the UK were green on the outside and, more often than not, hard with an unpleasant taste within. Then in 1966, the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves.
The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green. It was slightly softer on the outside and had a lot of juice inside. But the most important thing about this new type of pineapple was that it was twice as sweet as the hit-and-miss pineapples we had known. In no time, the Del Monte Gold took the market by storm, rapidly becoming the world’s best-selling pineapple variety.
In nutrition (营养) it was all good news too. This nice tasting pineapple contained four times more vitamin C than the old green variety. Nutritionists said that it was not only full of vitamins, but also good against some diseases. People were eager to be able to buy this wonderful fruit. The new type of pineapple was selling fast, and the Del Monte Gold pineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater.
Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple, Del Monte tried to keep market to itself. But other fruit companies developed similar pineapples. Del Monte turned to law for help, but failed. Those companies argued successfully that Del Monte’s attempts to keep the golden pineapple for itself were just a way to knock them out of the market.
【1】We learn from the text that the new type of pineapple is __________.
A.good-looking outside and soft inside B.green outside and sweet inside
