A central technique an acting class can equip you with is improvisation (即兴表演).Essentially，skills such as the improvisation principle of “Yes，and...” are beneficial for thinking on your feet.When someone suggests a new idea，you say “Yes” and run with the suggestion.A professional familiar with this technique can entertain and value the contributions of others，promoting a free­flowing exchange of ideas，which inspires a positive，creative spirit that the corporate world longs for. Both college students and professionals might benefit from the voice and movement training.I used to be afraid of the voice and movement part of the acting class.My acting teacher would make us do push­ups and yoga.Then，we'd stand up and moan (呻吟) with varying degrees of voices.I hated this，and lots of other people did，too.But the product of this training is an individual who stands tall and speaks clearly and loudly.Plus，I still use the stretches and warm­ups in class to calm my nerves before presentations. As an actor，you are a student of human behavior.With that，when you receive a text，you explore your character.Even if you're playing a villain (反派角色)，you have to approach your character from where it stands.Such an outlook makes for a wonderful leader，one that understands co­workers' situations and treats them with politeness and understanding. I've borne countless “What are you going to do with a theater degree？” speeches from family and friends.But ultimately，these soft skills are incredibly valuable for young professionals.Acting training will set you apart from the pack.

B．It brings about smooth interaction. C．It offers them good entertainment value. D．It helps them recognize their own contributions. 解析　B　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Essentially，skills such as the...on your feet”可知，“Yes，and...”原则对于随机应变是有好处的。再根据“A professional familiar with...the corporate world longs for”可知，熟悉“Yes，and...”技巧的专业人士重视他人的贡献，促进思想的自由交流，从而激发积极的创新性精神，因此可推断该原则会给专业人士带来流畅的互动。故选B。 5．What can we learn from the author's experience in paragraph 3? A．She is still very nervous of her acting teacher. B．She is addicted to working on her physical fitness. C．The training has made her braver and more patient. D．The training has enhanced her presentation abilities. 解析　D　推理判断题。在第三段中，作者讲述了自己在表演课程中进行声音和动作训练的经历。根据该段中的“But the product of this training is an individual who stands tall and speaks clearly and loudly...I still use...calm my nerves before presentations.”可知，这些训练锻炼了作者的口头表达能力，并帮助她在演讲前缓解紧张情绪，即提高了她的演讲能力。故选D。 6．What does the author want to say by mentioning exploring characters? A．It is a big challenge for most of the student actors. B．It makes the study of human behavior much easier. C．It can help people put themselves in others' shoes. D．It may improve the relationship between co­workers. 解析　C　细节理解题。在第四段中，作者提到作为一个演员，在你接到剧本的时候，你会探索角色。这意味着演员需要理解并体验角色的立场，这与将自己放在他人立场来看待问题是一致的。再根据该段中的“Such an outlook makes for...politeness and understanding.”可知，探索角色有助于人们换位思考。故选C。 7．What does the author advise young professionals to do? A．Take acting classes. B．Pursue acting careers. C．Obtain higher degrees. D．Consult family and friends. 解析　A　推理判断题。作者基于之前段落中提到的表演课程给专业人士带来的种种益处，在文章最后一段总结说“But ultimately，these soft skills are incredibly valuable for young professionals.Acting training will set you apart from the pack”，明确表明作者建议年轻专业人士参加表演课程来提升这些技能。故选A。 Ⅱ.七选五 As our lives become more closely connected with the digital age，it's more important than ever to keep the spark of human connections，a key part of which is making small talk. 1 Here's how to master the art of small talk. The cornerstone of effective small talk lies in developing genuine interest.Genuine interest is about actively seeking to understand the other person，valuing their perspectives and appreciating the uniqueness they bring to the conversation. 2 Small talk extends beyond spoken words; it includes the art of observation.As you engage in conversation，pay attention to the speaker's body language，facial expressions and tone of voice. 3 Being familiar with them not only helps you navigate the conversation with sensitivity but also enables you to establish a deeper connection by respecting the slight differences of the other person's communication style. Actually listening and connecting with someone are essential for a conversation.By providing your undivided attention，you convey respect and interest in what the other person has to say. 4 Ask follow­up questions to show that you value their insights.This depth of engagement lays the foundation for a more meaningful connection. At the heart of successful small talk lies the authenticity (真实性) of your engagement.Authenticity fosters a sense of trust and connection，making the conversation more meaningful and memorable.Avoid the temptation to project an image or use scripted responses. 5 In the world of small talk，authenticity is the key that unlocks the door to deeper connections and more fulfilling interactions. A．Instead，let your true self shine through. B．Some accessible topics are great for small talk. C．Active listening involves fully engaging with the speaker. D．Focus on understanding their viewpoints beyond simply hearing words. E．The signals provide valuable insights into their emotions and intentions. F．Small talk may be a gateway to building rich and meaningful relationships. G．By expressing authentic curiosity you make the other person feel seen and heard. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何掌握闲聊艺术的四种方法。 1．解析　F　空前提到人际交往的很重要的一部分是闲聊，空后则讲到了掌握闲聊艺术的方式，由此可见，空处承上启下，应该会讲到闲聊的作用或重要性，故F项“闲聊可能是建立丰富而有意义的关系的途径”符合语境。 2．解析　G　本段第一句讲到有效闲聊的基础是培养真诚的兴趣，第二句则讲了什么是真诚的兴趣。因此，空处应该会讲到真诚的兴趣(好奇心)的作用以承接上文，故选G。 3．解析　E　根据空后的“Being familiar with them”可知，空处应该会讲到一个表示物的复数名词；再结合空前的“pay attention to the speaker's body language，facial expressions and tone of voice”可知，空处涉及的复数名词指的应该是这些名词的统称，E项中的“signals”与之对应，且E项的意义“这些信号对他们的情绪和意图提供了有价值的见解”也符合语境。 4．解析　D　结合空后的“Ask follow­up questions”可知，此处讲的是闲聊的时候不仅要听他们说的话，还要全神贯注去理解他们的观点并问问题以表示对他们见解的重视，故D项“专注于理解他们的观点，而不仅仅是简单地听听(他们说的)话”符合语境。 5．解析　A　结合本段的第一句可知，真实性是闲聊成功的关键。结合空前的“避免表现出某种形象或使用事先精心准备的回应的诱惑”可知，空处应该会讲到怎么做才能展示真实性，故A项“相反，让你真正的自我闪耀光芒”符合语境。 Ⅲ.语法填空 (2024·福州质量检测)You enter through a round entrance known as a moon gate.There before you，is a 1.
