(2024·湖南邵阳期末)
Sharing a room with a family member or a friend can be tough (困难的) , but it becomes especially difficult when you are sharing it with someone you hardly know. If you find yourself in a similar situation, do not despair. There are things you can do to help you cope with having a roommate, no matter who it may be.
First of all, you have to remember that you get what you give. If you are nice to others, then others will be nice to you as well. You also need to set boundaries for yourself and for the other person. So before your new roommate moves in, talk to him. Set the rules early on and discuss your hopes.
Remember that there are two things that make up any good relationship: belief and respect. The same thing applies to(适用于) having a roommate. You have to respect each other. So he has that new PS3 game that you have always wanted to try out? Ask permission first. If he says no, don’t ask him for it again. If he lets you borrow his stuff, take care of the item and treat it as if it were your own. Make sure that you return it in the same condition as when you borrowed it.
To keep away from disagreements over who does the housework, clean as you go. For chores (杂务) that can be shared, you may want to divide it equally so that you don’t do all the housework. Take turns in washing the dishes. You may do it every other day or you may divide the task so that you only have to do it in the morning and your roommate will only have to do it at night.
When it comes to food and grocery items, determine what can be shared. Don’t be too mean when it comes to sharing food. On the other hand, determine what you can share and what you can’t and be clear about it. The advantage of sharing food is that you can save on time and food preparation.

(2024·河北邯郸期末)
“Individuals of all ages who have empathy (共情) understand that sometimes telling little white lies can protect other people from getting hurt,” says Barbara Greenberg, a clinical psychologist in Connecticut. “Most people that I have come across tell these little white lies because they understand that 100 percent honesty all the time is not beneficial. ” A white lie, she explains, spares people from unnecessary hurt.
At the same time, Dr. Julia Breur, a marriage and family therapist in Florida, emphasizes the importance of paying attention to the way we respond to someone. The fact is that not telling the truth can result in something unpleasant on you; it’s not just about the person the white lie is being told to. For example, she says someone who always tells others that “all is good” when it comes to a sick parent in an effort to avoid discussions about how serious their health issue really is, can eventually face stressful experiences. When that parent eventually passes away, the person who always gave an “all is good” response ends up emotionally broken.
Sometimes, telling white lies often depends on the situation, Dr. Breur says. For example, consider a woman who has not seen her mother for several months. The daughter has gained noticeable weight, yet the mother responds by excitedly declaring that she looks great. “I emphasize during psychotherapy sessions with my patients that context helps define meaning,” Dr. Breur says. “So when we look at the context of a mother saying you look great when she clearly sees that her daughter has gained weight, it can be acceptable. It reflects the intention of the white lie which is kindness, protection and unconditional love. Otherwise, white lies — especially when told to avoid personal accountability — can start a cycle of mistrust between people, ultimately compromising integrity,” she adds.
Therefore, it’s important to ask ourselves when it is and isn’t appropriate to deliver the honest truth, and when it’s best to step back and offer a more delicate response. More often than not, it’s about finding a balance between the two.
语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要阐述了善意的谎言可以让人们免受不必要的伤害,但有时候,善意的谎言往往取决于具体情况。
5.What can be learned about white lies according to Barbara Greenberg?
A.They are short-lived. B.They are unidentifiable.
C.They are trouble-making. D.They are common.
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“‘Most people that I have come across tell these little white lies because they understand that 100 percent honesty all the time is not beneficial. ’A white lie, she explains, spares people from unnecessary hurt. ”可知,根据芭芭拉·格林伯格的说法,善意的谎言很常见。故选D。
√
6.What message does Dr. Breur deliver in Paragraph 2?
A.White lies can harm both the liars and the listeners.
B.We must respond to our family members truthfully.
C.It’s wrong to tell white lies to a seriously ill parent.
D.The “all is good” response is effective in dealing with patients.
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“At the same time, Dr. Julia Breur, a marriage and family therapist in Florida, emphasizes the importance of paying attention to the way we respond to someone. The fact is that not telling the truth can result in something unpleasant on you; it’s not just about the person the white lie is being told to. ”可知,Breur 博士认为,善意的谎言给说谎者和听者都会带来伤害。故选A。
√
7.What is Dr. Breur’s attitude towards the mother’s practice in Paragraph 3?
A.Uncaring. B.Critical.
C.Supportive. D.Doubtful.
观点态度题。根据第三段中的“‘I emphasize during psychotherapy sessions with my patients that context helps define meaning,’ Dr. Breur says. ’So when we look at the context of a mother saying you look great when she clearly sees that her daughter has gained weight, it can be acceptable… can start a cycle of mistrust between people, ultimately compromising integrity,’she adds. ”可知,Breur博士对母亲的做法持支持态度,他认为它反映了善意谎言的意图,即善意、保护和无条件的爱。故选C。
√
8.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.East or West, White Lies Are the Best
B.Think Twice Before You Tell White Lies
C.White Lies Signify Unconditional Love
D.White Lies Are Empathetic People’s Favorable Choice
标题归纳题。通读全文,尤其根据最后一段内容可知,本文主要讲述了善意的谎言可以让人们免受不必要的伤害,但有时候,善意的谎言往往取决于具体情况。因此,在说善意的谎言之前要三思。B项“Think Twice Before You Tell White Lies (说谎之前三思) ”最能概括本文主旨,适合作为文章最佳标题。故选B。
