When I was a child,my grandmother often said interpersonal communication mattered.She
backed that up with her own behavior,and she invested her time and energy in interacting with
people.When she walked down the street,she spoke to everyone,whether an elderly person or a
child,speaking whether English or Spanish.
However,as she aged,she noticed that most people had no time for communication that's longer
than a 160-character text message,and had much less time to develop genuine friendships that last
decades.In fact,people are barely speaking to one another nowadays.As much as I hate to admit it,I
have noticed it too.
My grandmother opened my mind to having a pen pal on the other side of the world.It all started
in 2013 when I was at the University of Southern California.I met with Kerstin Zilm,a German radio
personality who wanted to interview me about being a student struggling financially.I didn't know
much about German culture or the German audience who would listen to the show,but I agreed to do
so.I had internalized(使内在化)my grandmother's concept and I felt this was another way of
communication and that speaking about my story was better than keeping it to myself.You never
knew who could learn from your life experiences.
After the story aired,a woman named Renate reached out to Kerstin,inquiring how she could
find me and help me financially with college.I was grateful,but my pride didn't allow me to accept the
money.However,I didn't let the opening halt.Encouraged by Kerstin,I emailed Renate back,

Those who are already exhausted by 2021-and well,all of 2020-can get some relief by calling a
hotline and screaming.
"Just Scream!"a hotline created by elementary school teacher Chris Gollmar,aims to reduce
tension for those needing to release their feelings.All you have to do is call the hotline and scream as
loud as you want,and for as long as you want-and then hang up.
"I wanted to find a way that people would respond to and screaming seemed to be a good fit!"
Gollmar spoke of his creative project,which he came up with in September 2020.
He said he thought it would be funny and unique to create a phone line just for screaming.After
people dial in,their calls are recorded and put on the website Gollmar created."Why should I call
you?"the website asks."To scream!You might be unhappy,terrified,or frustrated.All of these are
perfectly good reasons to call and record yourself screaming.
Personal phone numbers are not stored,and all calls go to an answering machine-so
communicating with a real person isn't required.
According to the website,there is currently a backlog of over 40,000 screams waiting to upload.
Gollmar said he's gotten 70,000 recordings since starting the work.
"Never in my life would I have expected so many people to actually pick up the phone,dial a number and
record themselves for the world to hear,"he said."But we're all screaming on the inside right now,so I guess I
should have figured.”

Five years ago,French navy officer Chardon was listening to a radio program about the journey
of the bar-tailed godwit(斑尾w鹬),a bird that flies 14,O00 kilometers between New Zealand and
Alaska.Chardon understood how dangerous the journey would be,as heavy storms frequently hit
Pacific island communities.Yet,somehow,bar-tailed godwits routinely pass through the area
uninjured.Chardon wondered whether learning how godwits navigate (could help coastal
communities avoid disasters.Could tracking birds help save lives?
This past January,a team began experiments designed to test Chardon's idea.Researchers led
by Jiguet equipped 56 birds of five species with cutting-edge animal tracking technology.The team
were transported to remote islands in French Polynesia,where they attached tags ()These
tags transmit the birds'locations to the International Space Station,which sends the data back to
scientists on Earth who can then follow the birds-all the while waiting to see how the birds respond
to natural disasters.
The project is focusing on birds'ability to hear infrasound,the low-frequency sound humans
cannot hear.Researchers believe it's the most likely signal birds would use to sense storms and
tsunamis.In a 2014 study,scientists tracking golden-winged warblers in the central and southeastern
US founded the birds flew up to 1,500 kilometers to escape from the outbreak of tornadoes that killed
35 people.This showed they'd heard the storm system in advance.
The team plan on tagging more birds across the Pacific to prepare for a potential tsunami."I
think if there's one wave that spreads across islands,we should get data from different species at
different locations,"says Jiguet."That'd definitely show it's worth continuing to tag birds and to
develop local systems to better analyze this.
Even if the attempt to develop a bird-based tsunami early warning system fails,the project will
still help scientists protect birds.In that sense,the research will have already gained results by that
time.Jiguet says their first season's tracking data shows Hawaii is an important stepping stone for the
birds they tagged-a useful clue to the protection of these species above rising seas.
32.What is the purpose of Jiguet's experiments?
A.To learn more about birds'lifestyles.
B.To know birds'reactions to disasters.
C.To test an animal tracking technology.
D.To study birds'adaptation to nature.
33.Why is the 2014 study mentioned in paragraph 3?
A.To present a fact.
B.To make comparisons.
C.To take a guess.
D.To introduce a new sound.
34.What does Jiguet most probably think of their research?
A.Successful.
B.Challenging.
C.Regrettable.
D.Rewarding.
35.What might be the best title for the text?
A.Can birds predict most natural disasters?
B.How do we develop a warning system?
C.Can birds warn us of natural disasters?
D.How do birds avoid natural disasters?

Ways to Respectfully Disagree
It's easier to agree than disagree.36 Unfortunately,many of us either shy away completely
from disagreements or lose it when things don't go our way.These tips can help keep disagreements
constructive.
Use "I"to communicate how you feel,what you think and what you want or need.37 For example,
telling your parents "You always remind me about my housework when you know I have much homework"has
a very different tone from "I'm feeling pressured because I have a lot of homework tonight.Can I do those
chores tomorrow?”
Listen to the other's opinion.38 That makes it more likely that he or she will do the same
for you.When the other person is talking,try to stop yourself from thinking about why you disagree
or what you'll say next.
39 This is the most important thing you can do to keep a conversation on track.Of course,
it's a huge challenge to stay calm when you feel angry about something,especially if the person you're
talking to gets heated.
40 If you've ever been on the receiving end of someone'sput-downs(贬损的话),you know
how valuable using respectful language and behavior can be.So instead of saying what you might be
thinking (That's a stupid idea!),try saying "I don't agree,and here is why.
Respect goes beyond difficult conversations,of course.Being helpful and considerate towards
family members,teachers or coaches in our everyday actions helps us establish a foundation for those
times when we might disagree.
A.Stay calm.
B.Look into the other's eyes.
C.Using "you"statements can sound aggressive.
D.Avoid putting down the other person's ideas and beliefs.
E.Then you can calmly present your case and why you disagree.
F.Being a good listener shows that you respect the other person.
G.But we can learn a lot from conversations where we don't agree.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数
应为150左右。
A couple of months before I started high school,my parents gave me the greatest gift any teenage
boy could ask for:a cellphone.I lived on that phone all summer.I texted every friend who was lucky
enough to have a cellphone.I ignored my family and my surroundings.Being connected was more
important than being present.
So,you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for our family
vacation that year.“This year,”he said,“we'll do something special.We're going camping!”His
excitement was met with a disappointed sigh.It wasn't my dream vacation,and I remained unbothered
throughout the packing and planning.My mind was on my phone.I was so buried in the screen.In
fact,the first time I looked up was when we drove across a bridge on the way to our campsite.
I stared out of the window and saw redwoods towering above us,their branches threatening to
pierce the blue sky.I saw a little river,with slivers of silky black water appearing between crashing
white rapids.The air blowing into the ear from the open windows was hot and smelled of pine.But
none of that mattered to me.The reason I had looked up was for something far more serious.My
phone no longer had service.
The last hour of the drive was increasingly tense.My dad announced that he had chosen a
campsite that had no cell service,and that my phone would be useless until we returned home.I would
be trapped in the forest for four days with no way to contact the outside world!I went through the
full cycle of teenage emotions during the first day of the trip.I raged ()I bargained.I begged.I
flip-flopped(改变观点)from a depressive state to anger and back..
I went to bed angrily that night.But when I awoke in the morning,something had changed.
Paragraph 1:
Instead of burying myself in my phone,I focused on something else:my surroundings.
Paragraph 2:
The next four days passed in a flash with many fun activities.
