We set off early in the morning about two hours after sunrise. We were up in the balloon for an hour, although the whole experience took three hours in all because of the training without pilot ban. Before we took off, the view was wonderful. I was able to see all the way to the mountains. We also flew over some great sites in our town, like the castle, which I go to a lot, and the river. And I didn't realize that a bridge we flow over was the one I crossed to school every day. IT looked really different. Everyone had said I should wear thick clothes for the flight as it'd be cold in the basket. But in fact, I felt warm. The only problem was that I felt a bit uncomfortable in the basket. There were only six of us, so IT wasn't crowded, but there was nowhere to sit. We had to stand all the way, so IT was time to come down. Balloons often land somewhere like a farm or a park, but ben made us come down on a football field. There was a crowd watching when we got there. IT was exciting.

During my summer exchange program in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, I experienced a series of awkward yet enlightening moments caused by cultural differences in body language.
On my first day, my host family greeted me with overwhelming warmth. When the father, Carlos, approached me with a strong embrace and kissed both my cheeks, I instinctively stepped back, my body stiff with surprise. In my culture, such intimate (亲密的) gestures are reserved for close friends or family, not offered to strangers upon first meeting. I noticed a flicker of confusion on his face, which immediately made me regret my reaction.
The following day, I joined some local students at a café. Everyone was friendly, and the conversation flowed. At one point, a girl named Ana described her plan for the weekend and made the “OK” hand gesture, forming a circle with her thumb and index finger. I smiled and returned the same sign, assuming it meant agreement or approval. To my surprise, she looked startled and quickly lowered her hand. Later, a friend gently explained that in Brazil, that particular gesture is considered rude and offensive (冒犯的), similar to raising a middle finger in some other cultures. I felt my face burn with embarrassment.
Another incident happened during a group discussion. I maintained steady eye contact to show that I was attentive and sincere. However, I noticed that my Brazilian counterparts frequently glanced away instead of holding my gaze. It felt as if they were disinterested or distracted (分心的). Afterwards, my host sister told me that in her culture, prolonged eye contact, especially in casual conversations, can be perceived (理解) as confrontational or even aggressive. They prefer softer and shorter eye contact to show respect and maintain harmony.
These experiences made me realize how easily nonverbal signals can be misread across cultures. I had assumed that my own habits were universal, but I was unintentionally causing confusion. Since then, I have made an effort to observe and learn the local customs of any country I visit. Understanding body language is just as important as learning the language itself when it comes to truly connecting with people from different backgrounds.
24. How did the author react when the host father greeted him with a hug and a kiss?
A. He responded with the same gesture. B. He stepped back nervously.
C. He shook hands instead. D. He ignored the greeting.
25. The underlined word “confrontational” in the fourth paragraph most likely means ________.
A. friendly and warm B. likely to cause argument
C. full of respect D. shy and nervous
26. Why did the author feel embarrassed after making the “OK” gesture?
A. Because it meant something negative in Brazil.
B. Because he didn’t say thank you.
C. Because the girl didn’t understand him.
D. Because he made the gesture incorrectly.
27. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To introduce Brazilian culture and customs.
B. To explain how to avoid body language mistakes.
C. To describe the author’s unforgettable travel experience.
D. To show the importance of understanding cultural differences in body language.
【答案】24. B 25. B 26. A 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,作者通过自己在巴西的交流经历,讲述了因文化差异导致的身体语言误解,并强调了理解不同文化中肢体语言的重要性。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第2段“When the father, Carlos, approached me with a strong embrace and kissed both my cheeks, I instinctively stepped back, my body stiff with surprise.(当父亲卡洛斯用热烈的拥抱和亲吻双颊的方式问候我时,我本能地后退了一步,身体因惊讶而僵硬。)”可知,当那位父亲用一个拥抱和一个亲吻来迎接他时,作者因不习惯亲密问候而紧张后退。故选B。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第4段“Afterwards, my host sister told me that in her culture, prolonged eye contact, especially in casual conversations, can be perceived(理解) as confrontational or even aggressive. They prefer softer and shorter eye contact to show respect and maintain harmony.(之后,我的寄宿姐姐告诉我,在她的文化中,长时间的眼神接触,尤其是在随意的交谈中,可能会被视为confrontational,甚至是攻击性的。他们更倾向于采用较为柔和的和短暂的眼神接触来表示尊重并维持和谐。)”可知,人们更倾向于采用较为柔和的和短暂的眼神接触来表示尊重并维持和谐,因此推断长时间的眼神接触,尤其在随意对话中,可能被视为挑衅甚至具有攻击性。故“confrontational”与B项“可能引发争论的”意思相近。故选B。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第3段“Later, a friend gently explained that in Brazil, that particular gesture is considered rude and offensive (冒犯的), similar to raising a middle finger in some other cultures. I felt my face burn with embarrassment.(后来,一位朋友温和地解释说,在巴西,那种特定的举动会被视为粗鲁和冒犯性的行为,就像在其他一些文化中竖起中指那样。我感到自己的脸因为尴尬而涨得通红。)”可知,作者因手势的负面含义感到尴尬。故选A。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“These experiences made me realize how easily nonverbal signals can be misread across cultures. I had assumed that my own habits were universal, but I was unintentionally causing confusion. Since then, I have made an effort to observe and learn the local customs of any country I visit. Understanding body language is just as important as learning the language itself when it comes to truly connecting with people from different backgrounds.(这些经历让我意识到,非语言信号在不同文化之间很容易被误解。我原本以为自己的习惯是普遍适用的,但实际上我无意中造成了混乱。从那以后,我努力去观察和了解我所访问的任何国家的当地习俗。在与来自不同背景的人建立真正联系方面,理解肢体语言与学习语言本身同样重要。)”可推知,作者写文章的目的是强调理解文化差异在肢体语言中的重要性。故选D。
C
Compared with physicists such as Marie Curie or Richard Feynman, Wu Chien-shiung is not a household name in China but she was one of the most influential nuclear physicists of the 20th century, one that “completely” changed human’s view of the universe.
Wu’s father, Wu Zhongyi, founded the first school for girls in Taicang, aiming to break the old idea that it was women’s virtue to have no talents, which had the greatest influence on Wu Chien-shiung’s life. Working in the scientific world dominated (支配) by men, she never gave up or lowered her standards even if unequally treated. After graduating from the former National Central University in Nanjing in 1934, Wu registered at the University of California, Berkeley at the age of 24 to continue her study in physics.
During her 44-year career as a nuclear physicist, Wu’s pioneering achievements won her nicknames such as “Chinese Madame Curie”, “queen of nuclear research” and “first lady of physics”. She was the first woman to be president of American Physical Society, the first female winner of the Comstock Prize in physics given by the US National Academy of Sciences, the first person to receive the Wolf Prize in physics, the first honorary doctorate awarded by Princeton University to a woman, and the first female professor of physics in the history of Columbia University.
To get accurate results from experiments, she worked very hard day and night at a laboratory and gained a reputation (名声) for accuracy. There was a saying among physicists: If the experiment was done by Wu, it must be correct. She was always very careful in experiments, spending a great deal of time calibrating (校准) instruments. She didn’t start collecting data until she fully understood the instruments. Her experiments overturned many previous experimental results and theories, said Samuel Chao Chung Ting, American physicist and Nobel Prize winner.
On Feb 16, 1997, Wu died in the US. According to her will, she was buried in her hometown Taicang. She was a distinguished world citizen, and was forever a Chinese.
28. What influenced Wu Chien-shiung when she was young?
A. Her life in America. B. Her love for physics.
C. Her family background. D. Marie Curie’s achievements.
29. What does the author intend to show in paragraph 3?
A. Awards are usually gained through great efforts.
B. Wu Chien-shiung was “a pioneer” in many ways.
C. No scientists were better than Wu Chien-shiung.
D. We cannot stress the importance of physics enough.
30. Which of the following can best describe Wu Chien-shiung?

Imagine the roadways where nearly all serious accidents can be avoided, and trucks can transport goods around the clock without needing to stop for sleep. Applications for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) will replace the average human reaction time, lowering it from 1.6 seconds to just 0.5 seconds, saving countless lives in the process.
The driverless future of autonomous vehicles (AV) is set to transform society by reinventing (重塑) the transportation industry and changing consumer behaviors forever. Yet, the share of consumers who support government regulation of fully self-driving cars has declined 15% over the past year, and trust in the safety of autonomous vehicles is down 5%. To address these ongoing safety concerns, more must be done.
Autonomous vehicles should not be regulated by the same rules that govern standard passenger vehicles because those regulations do not address the unique safety challenges for AVs. To address these concerns, the industry will need to continue building public trust through the improved performance of AV systems, especially in controlled environments.
Reaching a totally hands-off and eyes-off autonomous driving experience will require a range of next-generation technologies that are still being developed. Automakers will continue to increase the safety of autonomous vehicles by applying new technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve the performance of sensors that use radio and light waves to help detect road users in all weather conditions.
The technical brain of an AV system relies on software systems that actively protect passengers. As this market grows, costs will steadily fall for these new sensors and high-performance computers, just as safety standards continue to progress around the country and the world. To help build confidence in AVs, the industry will need to generate a common set of testing standards, similar to crash safety standards, that AV developers can evaluate their systems against.
As autonomous driving evolves, the road to a driverless future still holds many twists and turns ahead. It should be an exciting and wild ride for years to come as the auto industry reinvents itself with ever-increasing levels of automation.
32. What make consumers still hesitant about the application of AV?
A. Costly operating systems. B. Government regulations.
C. Potential safety concerns. D. Complicated technologies.
33. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. AVs fail to follow standard regulations. B. Tailored rules are needed for AVs.
C. Public trust in AVs is difficult to earn. D. AVs should be tested on public roads.
34. How can the public’s trust in AVs be improved?
A. By integrating existing technologies. B. By limiting their maximum speed.
C. By developing a reliable testing system. D. By minimizing the cost of sensors.
35. What is the writer’s attitude towards the future of AVs?
A. Skeptical and concerned. B. Cautious yet optimistic.
C. Worried and reserved. D. Pessimistic yet tolerant.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. C 35. B

During my summer exchange program in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, I experienced a series of awkward yet enlightening moments caused by cultural differences in body language.
On my first day, my host family greeted me with overwhelming warmth. When the father, Carlos, approached me with a strong embrace and kissed both my cheeks, I instinctively stepped back, my body stiff with surprise. In my culture, such intimate (亲密的) gestures are reserved for close friends or family, not offered to strangers upon first meeting. I noticed a flicker of confusion on his face, which immediately made me regret my reaction.
The following day, I joined some local students at a café. Everyone was friendly, and the conversation flowed. At one point, a girl named Ana described her plan for the weekend and made the “OK” hand gesture, forming a circle with her thumb and index finger. I smiled and returned the same sign, assuming it meant agreement or approval. To my surprise, she looked startled and quickly lowered her hand. Later, a friend gently explained that in Brazil, that particular gesture is considered rude and offensive (冒犯的), similar to raising a middle finger in some other cultures. I felt my face burn with embarrassment.
Another incident happened during a group discussion. I maintained steady eye contact to show that I was attentive and sincere. However, I noticed that my Brazilian counterparts frequently glanced away instead of holding my gaze. It felt as if they were disinterested or distracted (分心的). Afterwards, my host sister told me that in her culture, prolonged eye contact, especially in casual conversations, can be perceived (理解) as confrontational or even aggressive. They prefer softer and shorter eye contact to show respect and maintain harmony.
These experiences made me realize how easily nonverbal signals can be misread across cultures. I had assumed that my own habits were universal, but I was unintentionally causing confusion. Since then, I have made an effort to observe and learn the local customs of any country I visit. Understanding body language is just as important as learning the language itself when it comes to truly connecting with people from different backgrounds.
24. How did the author react when the host father greeted him with a hug and a kiss?
A. He responded with the same gesture. B. He stepped back nervously.
C. He shook hands instead. D. He ignored the greeting.
25. The underlined word “confrontational” in the fourth paragraph most likely means ________.
A. friendly and warm B. likely to cause argument
C. full of respect D. shy and nervous
26. Why did the author feel embarrassed after making the “OK” gesture?
A. Because it meant something negative in Brazil.
B. Because he didn’t say thank you.
C. Because the girl didn’t understand him.
D. Because he made the gesture incorrectly.
27. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To introduce Brazilian culture and customs.
B. To explain how to avoid body language mistakes.
C. To describe the author’s unforgettable travel experience.
D. To show the importance of understanding cultural differences in body language.
C
Compared with physicists such as Marie Curie or Richard Feynman, Wu Chien-shiung is not a household name in China but she was one of the most influential nuclear physicists of the 20th century, one that “completely” changed human’s view of the universe.
Wu’s father, Wu Zhongyi, founded the first school for girls in Taicang, aiming to break the old idea that it was women’s virtue to have no talents, which had the greatest influence on Wu Chien-shiung’s life. Working in the scientific world dominated (支配) by men, she never gave up or lowered her standards even if unequally treated. After graduating from the former National Central University in Nanjing in 1934, Wu registered at the University of California, Berkeley at the age of 24 to continue her study in physics.
During her 44-year career as a nuclear physicist, Wu’s pioneering achievements won her nicknames such as “Chinese Madame Curie”, “queen of nuclear research” and “first lady of physics”. She was the first woman to be president of American Physical Society, the first female winner of the Comstock Prize in physics given by the US National Academy of Sciences, the first person to receive the Wolf Prize in physics, the first honorary doctorate awarded by Princeton University to a woman, and the first female professor of physics in the history of Columbia University.
To get accurate results from experiments, she worked very hard day and night at a laboratory and gained a reputation (名声) for accuracy. There was a saying among physicists: If the experiment was done by Wu, it must be correct. She was always very careful in experiments, spending a great deal of time calibrating (校准) instruments. She didn’t start collecting data until she fully understood the instruments. Her experiments overturned many previous experimental results and theories, said Samuel Chao Chung Ting, American physicist and Nobel Prize winner.
On Feb 16, 1997, Wu died in the US. According to her will, she was buried in her hometown Taicang. She was a distinguished world citizen, and was forever a Chinese.
28. What influenced Wu Chien-shiung when she was young?
A. Her life in America. B. Her love for physics.
C. Her family background. D. Marie Curie’s achievements.
29. What does the author intend to show in paragraph 3?
A. Awards are usually gained through great efforts.
B. Wu Chien-shiung was “a pioneer” in many ways.
C. No scientists were better than Wu Chien-shiung.
D. We cannot stress the importance of physics enough.
30. Which of the following can best describe Wu Chien-shiung?
A. Caring and responsible. B. Courageous and creative.
C. Stubborn and sensitive. D. Cautious and hardworking.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. An influential woman nuclear physicist. B. An important contribution to physics.
C. The influence of modern education. D. Nuclear researches in scientific world.
D
Imagine the roadways where nearly all serious accidents can be avoided, and trucks can transport goods around the clock without needing to stop for sleep. Applications for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) will replace the average human reaction time, lowering it from 1.6 seconds to just 0.5 seconds, saving countless lives in the process.
The driverless future of autonomous vehicles (AV) is set to transform society by reinventing (重塑) the transportation industry and changing consumer behaviors forever. Yet, the share of consumers who support government regulation of fully self-driving cars has declined 15% over the past year, and trust in the safety of autonomous vehicles is down 5%. To address these ongoing safety concerns, more must be done.
Autonomous vehicles should not be regulated by the same rules that govern standard passenger vehicles because those regulations do not address the unique safety challenges for AVs. To address these concerns, the industry will need to continue building public trust through the improved performance of AV systems, especially in controlled environments.
Reaching a totally hands-off and eyes-off autonomous driving experience will require a range of next-generation technologies that are still being developed. Automakers will continue to increase the safety of autonomous vehicles by applying new technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve the performance of sensors that use radio and light waves to help detect road users in all weather conditions.
The technical brain of an AV system relies on software systems that actively protect passengers. As this market grows, costs will steadily fall for these new sensors and high-performance computers, just as safety standards continue to progress around the country and the world. To help build confidence in AVs, the industry will need to generate a common set of testing standards, similar to crash safety standards, that AV developers can evaluate their systems against.
As autonomous driving evolves, the road to a driverless future still holds many twists and turns ahead. It should be an exciting and wild ride for years to come as the auto industry reinvents itself with ever-increasing levels of automation.
32. What make consumers still hesitant about the application of AV?
A. Costly operating systems. B. Government regulations.
C. Potential safety concerns. D. Complicated technologies.
33. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. AVs fail to follow standard regulations. B. Tailored rules are needed for AVs.
C. Public trust in AVs is difficult to earn. D. AVs should be tested on public roads.
34. How can the public’s trust in AVs be improved?
A. By integrating existing technologies. B. By limiting their maximum speed.
C. By developing a reliable testing system. D. By minimizing the cost of sensors.
35. What is the writer’s attitude towards the future of AVs?
A. Skeptical and concerned. B. Cautious yet optimistic.
C. Worried and reserved. D. Pessimistic yet tolerant.

Think back to the last time you shopped for fruits and vegetables. You may have noticed some items labelled with the word “organic”. ___36___
“Organic” refers to the way food is grown. To be labelled as organic, food production must meet strict guidelines. These can be different depending on where you live. In the United States, organic foods must be grown or raised without using pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
___37___ That changed after the Industrial Revolution. During the 20th century, many ideas that were used by factories and big businesses were put into action on farms. This helped some farms grow larger and produce more.

Organic farming produces fewer crops. ___39___ Additionally, organic farms spend more money taking care of the animals they raise. These and other factors drive the cost of organic food up.
Is organic food worth the extra cost? Some people believe it is. They may think it tastes better or just prefer to eat food that has not been grown using chemicals. ___40___They are still trying to find a major difference between organic and non-organic food in terms of safety, nutrition, or taste. Still, others argue that the environmental benefits of organic food make it worth the price.
A. Have you ever wondered what that means?
B. The cost of production is also usually higher.
C. For most of history, almost all food was organic.
D. Many people are willing to pay more for organic food.
E. Some also think organic foods are naturally more nutritious.
