But to people who know its history, Liuchi Alley in Tongcheng means more than the alley itself. In the early Qing Dynasty, the alley was the dividing line between the Zhang family and the Wu family. Both families thought the other took more land and they were angry with each other. The Zhangs then wrote a letter to Zhang Ying, a top official(官员) in their family, hoping he would use his power to make the neighbour back off. After getting the letter, Zhang Ying thought for a long time. He did not use his power. Instead, he sent back a letter. There was only a poem in it: A letter from thousands of miles away, It’s only for a wall you say. Why not back off three feet as you may, And stop fighting over an alleyway? The Great Wall still stands there today, The emperor who had it built long passed away(去世). The Zhang family understood and moved their wall back three chi. Then the Wu family were moved and did the same. Later, a six-chi-wide alley came out between the two families, and that was how the alley got such a name. Today, Liuchi Alley attracts thousands of tourists not only for its beauty but also for the Chinese quality it stands for. 1. What did the Zhang and Wu families fight about? A. A business competition. B. Different family traditions. C. Land use. D. House designing styles. 2. What did Zhang Ying do after receiving the letter? A. He was very angry with the Wus. B. He suggested the Zhangs step back a bit. C. He asked both families to step back. D. He used his power to support the Zhangs. 3. How did the alley change in width(宽度)? A. 0 chi→3 chi→6 chi B. 6 chi→3 chi→0 chi C. 0 chi→6 chi→3 chi D. 6 chi→0 chi→3 chi 4. Which of the following shows the same Chinese quality as Liuchi Alley? A. Sima Guang broke the vat(缸) to save a boy. B. Kong Rong gave the bigger pears to his brothers. C. Yang Shi and You Zuo stood in the snow waiting for Master Cheng. D. Kuang Heng borrowed light from his next-door neighbour to study. (B) When we were kids, learning polite expressions was important. Our parents taught us to say “thank you” when we received help, and to say “please” when we needed help from others. But would you say “thank you” and “please” to a digital assistant(助手)? Amazon, a US company, said it added new features to its smart assistant Alexa. One of the developments—a politeness feature—pays attention to parents’ worries about their children forgetting their manners because they have become used to shouting orders at Alexa. When kids ask Alexa to work out a Maths problem using the word “please”—as in “Alexa, please tell me what 3 and 7 is?” —Alexa will not only give the correct answer, but also give the following reply: “Thanks for asking so nicely.” However, ____▲____, as children can tell the difference between machines and humans. But thinking back to our everyday life, we don’t usually shout loudly to a TV. “I ask Siri to turn on the lights in the same natural language that I use in daily life,” Chaim said. “It doesn’t matter that my digital assistant can’t hear or understand it—it matters that I say it.” With the increasing use of AI, developing the habit of being polite in everyday life is becoming even more important, as the British research company ChildWise found. In January, it published a report warning that people who become used to cutting polite words and giving orders to digital assistants might become impolite when dealing with others. Indeed, as German philosopher G.W.F. wrote, one is worse off if they treat their machines in an unfriendly way. And Manu Kumar once said, “One of my standards(标准) for deciding how nice someone is is by watching how they talk and act with a waiter. In a similar way, even if AI doesn’t care about it, other people around us are going to experience how we deal with it. We shouldn’t forget why we have the digital assistants and how to deal with them.” 5. According to Paragraphs 2 and 3, what’s TRUE about the new Alexa? A. It shouts answers. B. It only follows children’s orders. C. It helps children learn good manners. D. It refuses to answer if it’s treated impolitely. 6. Which sentence can be put in the “____▲____”? A. children need to be polite to a machine as well B. children are good at getting along with others C. Alexa is not only eleven, but also can act like a human D. some people believe kids don’t have to thank a machine 7. What did ChildWise find about people who treat machines badly? A. They become less important people. B. They take more interest in giving orders. C. They might be impolite to the people. D. They don’t know how to deal with others. 8. What might the writer talk about in the following part? A. Problems caused by digital assistants. B. Ways to deal with digital assistants. C. Wonderful uses of digital assistants. D. The hopeful future of digital assistants. 三、信息还原 (10分) When you’re in an elevator(电梯), how long is it okay to make eye contact(接触)with others? _____1_____ Sometimes you may want to show you’re open to communication by being friendly. Then you can give them a quick look to let them know you mean no harm. Most of the time, though, you just want to be left alone. _____2_____ If you break this rule and stare(盯着) at a stranger in an elevator, you may make the other person feel uncomfortable. _____3_____ If you make eye contact for more than three seconds, what are you saying to the other person? _____4_____ For example, you might have seen scenes like this in TV shows. A man and a woman look at each other. They might hold the look for about seven seconds and then look away. This often shows they’re interested in each other or want to talk. However, if a man stares at another man (a stranger) for over three seconds, it might seem like he’s saying, “You look strange.” _____5_____ So, when in an elevator, a quick look is usually enough to be polite. There’s no need to hold eye contact for long-simple and natural communication makes the short ride more pleasant. A. You may also feel a little strange. B. How to greet people in an elevator? C. It depends on the person and the situation. D. This type of stare often gives unfriendly feelings. E. Looking elsewhere after making eye contact is impolite. F.

As they walked up to Sweet Delights, a famous local shop, the sweet smell of vanilla(香草) floated out gently. They noticed a long line, joined it happily, and chatted about their favourite flavors(口味) while waiting. The line moved slowly, but the friends made it fun by sharing stories of their school trip. Just as it was their turn to order, a group of noisy teenagers came over, paid no attention to the crowd, and pushed in front of them impolitely. Lily, the bravest of the three, spoke up calmly, “Excuse me, we’ve been waiting a while—I think it’s our turn. Could you check the line?” The lead boy looked surprised. When he saw the angry looks of the people around him, he said, “Sorry, we didn’t notice. Please go ahead.” As they enjoyed their creamy ice creams, the kids realized people often overlook(忽视) those waiting politely. They decided to start an activity to remind everyone to wait with respect. They spent the weekend making colourful posters with “Excuse me, but I am next!” in bright letters, and handed them out to schools and shops. Many owners put them up in a noticeable place. Soon, more people in town started waiting politely and treating others with kindness. The three kids were pleased to see they’d made such a positive difference in their small town. 1. In which shop did the three kids buy ice creams? 2. How did the three kids pass the time while waiting? 3. What did the teenagers do to the three friends? 4.

Here is my advice on how to behave politely during our museum visit. First, we shouldn’t touch the artworks because our hands may harm them. Next, we must be quiet and not shout. We should keep our voice down in order not to trouble others. We can wear earphones if we want to listen to introductions. Then, eating or drinking in the museum is not allowed, as food waste and drinks may damage the artworks. At last, we shouldn’t jump the line when we are waiting to see popular works of art. Let’s remember all these manners and be polite visitors during our trip to the museum. The Students’ Union 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
