There’s an old saying that goes, “ Good fences make good neighbors. ” With so many people forced to stay at home during the pandemic, some are happy to report that good fences can also make good friends.
In Minneapolis, the Olson family lives next door to 99-year-old Mary O Neill. Although Mary has an adult daughter in the area who visits once a week, with the rest of her relatives scattered, the pandemic left the old woman in seclusion (与世隔绝).
But as lockdown went on, Mary managed to develop a special friendship with one of her neighbors — Benjamin Olson, aged 2. Over time, Mary watched through the fences as Benjamin learned to walk, talk and eventually run and play. Despite the huge differences in their ages, Benjamin noticed his elderly neighbor, delighting in her presence. Between the two, they developed a game they could play over the fence. Benjamin would pass her a ball and she’d hit it back to him with her cane.
While others might remark on the 97-year gap between the two pals, when Benjamin sees Mary, he simply sees a friend, not a number. Although the pair’s special affinity (亲和力) definitely scores high on the cuteness factor, Benjamin’s mum Sarah and Mary’s adult daughter believe the relationship has been a lifeline that’s kept the elderly woman going through the long period of isolation (隔离).
As pandemic restrictions have lifted, Mary and Benjamin’s friendship continues to blossom on both sides of the fence — only now, the gates can be opened.
“Friendship can just happen so many different ways, ” Sarah told CBS. “ I’m just really happy they were able to form this on — isolation or not, pandemic or not. I’m happy because it means a lot to her and it means a lot to him, too. ” 24．Why is the saying mentioned in the first paragraph? A．To offer background information. B．To introduce the topic for writing. C．To enrich the content of the paragraph. D．To highlight the message behind the saying.
25．What is probably the major contributor to Benjamin and Mary s friendship? A．The lockdown over pandemic. C．Mary’s adult daughter.
B．Benjamin’s mother Sarah. D．Many local people.
26．What does the third paragraph focus on? A．Benjamin’s growth process. B．Mary’s attraction to Benjamin.
C．The game played by Benjamin and Mary.
D．The building of the friendship between Benjamin and Mary.
27．What is Sarah’s attitude towards the friendship between Benjamin and Mary?
A．Cautious. C．Appreciative.
C
B．Concerned. D．Indifferent.
David Frank started working for tips when he was 11 years old, delighting restaurant diners in New York with his magic tricks. As a teenager he would make an average of $60-70 in an evening—not bad, but he wanted more. So he started reading research on tipping, and found a study showing that servers who left a sweet at the end of the meal could up their pay. He tried handing customers a playing card at the end of his act, which he hoped would persuade them to part with more cash. It worked.
Mr. Frank's findings confirmed the notion of the tip as a sort of reward for outstanding service. For a start, economists are puzzled by the fact that so many people give tips, voluntarily handing out cash for a routine service, when it is assumed that customers generally want to pay as little as possible for what they buy. But fuzzier factors also seem to matter, like the feelings of gratitude that Mr. Frank inspired. A Survey in 2010 by Ofer Azar of Israel's Ben-Gurion University of the Negev found that 85% of American tippers claimed to be following a social pattern, while 60% said they tipped to avoid guilt.
During the pandemic these fuzzy factors appear to have strengthened. Mr. Lynn observed that people have been tipping more generously even while ordering take-away food.
The presence of a pandemic or of a magician performing at one's table are just two of many factors that may affect the size of a tip. A tipper may simply be touched by the server. If a waiter squats down beside you at the table as he or she takes your order, that often brings a higher tip. Good weather may encourage generosity too. Race can be an uglier factor. A study of tips for cab drivers found that black drivers were tipped on average at a rate of 13%, while white drivers got 20%.
28．Why did David Frank hand customers a card? A．To delight the customers. B．To provide the best service.
C．To satisfy their needs. D．To increase his income.
29．What do we know about the tipping fact? A．Customers want to pay as few tips as possible. B．Most tippers in America tip because others tip. C．Tipping is the best way to show gratitude. D．Tipping is usually included in the bill.
30．Why does the author mention \"take-away food\"?
A．To indicate take- away food is more popular during pandemic. B．To persuade readers to order take-away food in pandemic. C．To emphasize that people tend to give more tips in pandemic. D．To explain there's no need to tip in terms of take-away food. 31．What can we infer from last paragraph? A．The pandemic makes tips unaffordable. B．The customers' mood influences their tipping. C．Tipping has nothing to do with weather. D．There are more white drivers than black ones.
D
Can you really find out where someone is from based on how they queue (排队)?And why — across the world — do some queues seem to take forever, while others, even of the same waiting time, seem to go relatively quickly?
Richard Larson, Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor and a world expert on queues, as well as various social scientists, believes how you queue does, in fact, often give away your origin. In the United States, how people queue even depends on which city they are from. “One of my findings is that you can tell a lot about the social culture of citizens by watching their micro behavior in queues. People in Boston, New York and Washington D．C．all queue in different ways,” he says. “In Washington, people queue at a random point in a sidewalk. These are government workers who know that the bus stops at this place at 4:05, so they queue up dutifully — first come first serve. I have never seen any such behavior in New York or Boston.”
No matter how “good” the queuers are, though, scientists agree that for the
queue to function, it needs to be fair. As long as people are served in the order they are lined up, queue anger can be avoided.
This is the idea behind the winding queue behind ropes or barriers where, when you reach the front, you are directed to the next available server. It’s no faster than having individual lines all the way through. But it does mean that no one arriving after you will get served before you.
The final moments of the queue are also important. Research by INSEAD business school professor Ziv Carmon and Princeton University psychology professor Daniel Kahneman found that if our wait ends on a happy note — for instance, if the queue speeds up at the end — we will view that experience more positively, even if for most of the time we were very uncomfortable, quietly cursing (骂) the person in front.
32．How does the author introduce the topic? A．By analyzing facts. C．By raising questions.
B．By presenting findings. D．By making comments.
33．Which of the following statements may Richard Larson agree with? A．Some people get more pleasure from queuing up than others. B．The way you queue is a reflection of your cultural background. C．People from Washington behave better than those from Boston. D．The understanding of social distance varies from place to place. 34．What does the underlined part “the idea” in paragraph 4 refer to? A．Queuing patiently. C．Queuing randomly.
B．No pain no gain. D．First come first serve.
35．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．One should take a positive attitude towards queuing. B．It is a good idea to keep queuing until the last moment. C．Waiting in a queue is anything but a pleasant experience. D．The movement speed of a queue might make a difference. 第二节(共5小题；每小题分，满分分)

All of us have moments when we say to ourselves, “I can’t do this anymore.”

anymore,” thinking that they should try to toughen up or push themselves through. ____39____ If left unaddressed, it can have consequences for your emotional, physical and mental health.
____40____ On the contrary, it is a sign of strength. Most of all, you deserve to feel confident, well, and whole. Try not to get discouraged. So one of the first things you can do to address burnout is to assess your life responsibilities and see if there is anything that can be changed. Make one small change today. Small changes add up and have a big impact on how you feel.
