We may be only three weeks into December, but artist Jonnie Hartman has been in the holiday spirit for months, designing and building the Grand America Holiday Window Stroll.

The goal with each window stroll is to create playful and uplifting displays (展示), according to Hartman. “I really try to do something lighthearted, something whimsical, that is, something everyone can connect with and maybe not see every day in the real world,” Hartman said.

She designs all of the window displays by hand, starting with pencil sketches, then illustrating the designs on her computer and sending parts of the drawings to be printed. From there, Hartman works with a team of five people to build the displays, creating, sewing and embellishing (润色) many elements by hand.

However, a challenge Hartman has faced over the years as she has designed the displays is making sure all of the measurements are right for elements to fit inside the windows.

“When I was in college, I was an art major, and I thought, ‘I don’t need math. I will never use it. I’m an artist,’ and guess what, it’s the most important thing that I use, ‘‘Hartman said. “If I don’t get that right, then the windows don’t fit, the pieces don’t come together and it just doesn’t work out.”

The holiday window stroll gives Hartman a unique opportunity to hear feedback from those who observe her creations, which is something she doesn’t always get to experience with her other artworks. She said it’s fun to hear people’s reactions as they go through the holiday window stroll.

“It just makes me happy that I can kind of set the tone for people’s holiday season and just maybe bring a smile to their face,” Hartman said.

4. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “whimsical” in Paragraph 2?

A. Serious.    B. Exciting.

C. Unusual.    D. Ordinary.

5. What challenges Hartman most in designing the displays?

A. The pattern.    B. The fit.

C. The colour.    D. The teamwork.

6. What does Hartman think about math now?

A. She values it very much.    B. She still thinks it’s useless.

C. It is a piece of cake for her.    D. It’s not suitable for her to learn.

7. Why is the holiday window stroll unique for Hartman?

A. It just can make her happy.

B. She has a chance to create by hand.

C. It can help improve her other artworks.

D. She can get some remarks from the viewers.

During the holiday season, many of us feel pressure to find our loved ones the “perfect” gift. Why? Because gift-giving has long been considered a prime way to express love. However, recent research suggests that small acts of kindness, like a kind word, hugging a child or receiving sympathy, make people feel most loved and supported.

In the study, 495 men and women between the ages of 18 and 93 completed a questionnaire evaluating 60 possible ways that people can feel love. The storyboards included situations like spending time with friends, receiving gifts, and spending time in nature. The survey also included negative interactions, like being controlled and criticized (批评) by others.

The findings highlight the psychological benefits that close relationships can offer. In fact, study participants ranked human interaction as a more significant expression of love than receiving material items, like presents. Connecting with others was also rated more highly than getting positive feedback on the Internet, indicating that people get the most support from personal human contact.

“ During the holidays,anxiety rises, making it harder to remain present with ourselves and others. However, the power of spending time with another person is a gift we can give at any moment,” says Dr. Carla Naumburg, a mindfulness coach and social worker in Newton, Mass. He suggests balancing party planning and online shopping with moments of human connection. Activities like reading to a child, meeting a friend for a walk, or taking a moment to call a family member, are ways to express love and care and can keep us emotionally grounded.

While the idea of offering loved ones the gift of our time may pale in comparison to giving them a generous present, recent research shows shared human experiences can tighten social bonds. Despite personality differences,most people agree on what makes us feel loved—the presence of our loved ones.

8. What does the text mainly focus on?

A. Gift and holiday economy.

B. Social and personal relationships.

C. Stress and human progress.

D. Selfish and generous love.

9. What can we know about the questionaire?

A. About 500 men participated in it.

B. Participants disliked negative interactions.

C. A wide range of age groups got involved.

D. Participants had limited ways to feel love.

10. What does Dr. Carla Naumburg intend to tell us?

A. People often find it difficult to stay with others.

B. Face to face connection is a gift to show love.

C. Reading to a child is the best way to convey love and care.

D. Balancing holiday activities with relaxation is recommended.

11. What might be the best title of the text?

A. Gift-giving is already out of date.

B. Social interaction lights up your holidays.

C. It is not presents but presence that counts.

D. Stress causes people to withdraw from others.

Think twice the next time you decide to copy your boss in an email. That simple little “CC” box (抄送框) could send a message that ruins your relationship with the other receivers.

A study in Harvard Business Review asked working adults to imagine that their coworker always, sometimes, or rarely CC’ed their boss in emails. The study results show that employees felt less trusted when their coworker “always’’ copied the boss than when they ‘‘sometimes” or “almost never” did. The results of the survey aren’t surprising, says career expert Bruce Tulgan. Sometimes the boss really does need to stay in the loop (在圈内) with an email chain. But most times, employees are purposely sending the message that they don’t think the receiver follow through with what they’re asking unless the boss gets involved, says Tulgan. “That is an expression of lack of trust,’’ he says.

Breaking down that trust level in your office can have serious consequences. Like in any relationship, coworkers need trust to keep things running smoothly. “When people have trust, there is a much higher level of wanting to deliver for each other,” says Tulgan. “When people have enthusiasm, they try harder.” That means more willingness to take risks and make decisions, he says. Even if you don’t trust your coworker to follow through for you, copying the boss in an email is not the best strategy, says career expert Todd Dewett, PhD. “CC’ing is the adult version of being a tattletale (告密者),” he says. “It tells your colleague you didn’t agree without telling it to their face, and you want your boss to know without talking about it.”

As a rule of thumb, only about 20 percent of what you do in the office is truly urgent, and those are the only times you should consider getting your boss involved in, says Tulgan. “The most important people, the most important project, key relationship,” she says. “That’s when you might consider the occasional use of CC.”

12. Why could CC’ing ruin your relationship with your coworkers?

A. It makes the boss join the loop.

B. Your coworkers would try harder.

C. It makes the boss satisfied with you.

D. Your coworkers would feel less trusted.

13. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?

A. When we can copy the boss in an email.

B. How lack of trust can lead to bad results.

C. Why trust keeps people working smoothly.

D. What can be done to avoid CC’ing the boss.

14. What does the underlined phrase “As a rule of thumb” in the last paragraph mean?

A. Needless to say.    B. Generally speaking.

C. In conclusion.    D. In turn.

15. What is Bruce Tulgan’s advice on the use of CC?

A. Consider the use of CC accordingly.

B. CC after negotiating with coworkers.

C. It is wise for you to always copy the boss.

D. You’d better never copy your boss in an email.

文章主要讲述要有选择地使用CC

12. 推理判断题。根据第二段The study results show that employees felt less trusted when their coworker “always’’ copied the boss than when they ‘‘sometimes” or “almost never” did.可知CC’ing会毁掉你与同事之间的关系因为它会让员工感到不被信任。

13. 主旨大意题。根据第三段Breaking down that trust level in your office can have serious consequences. 可知本段主要讲述毁掉新人会导致严重后果,然后文章举例说明怎么导致严重后果,所以B正确。

14. 词义猜测题。根据文章最后一段As a rule of thumb, only about 20 percent of what you do in the office is truly urgent, and those are the only times you should consider getting your boss involved in,可知,一般情况,只有20%的事情属于紧急状况,需要让老板参与,其他的则可以不惊动老板。A. Needless to say.更不必说 B. Generally speaking.一般来说C. In conclusion. 总之 D. In turn. 依次,轮流

15. 推理判断题。根据最后一段The most important people, the most important project, key relationship,” she says. “That’s when you might consider the occasional use of CC.”可知要根据具体情况确定是否使用CC

     

Shorts may feel nice and casual on your legs on a warm summer’s day, but they’re not so gentle on your wallet. ___16___ Usually the fact that one obviously uses less cloth than the other makes it hard to be accepted So what gives?

It turns out clothing sellers aren’t trying to cheat you by charging you too much money. They’re just pricing shorts according to what it costs to produce them.___17___ Extra material does go into a full pair of pants but not as much as you may think. As experts explain, shorts that don’t fall past your knees may contain just a fifth less cloth than ankle-length trousers.___18___

Those same details that end up accounting for most of the material—pockets, belt loops, waist bands—also require the most human labor to make.___19___ The physical cotton in blue jeans accounts for just a small part of its price Jag. Most of that money goes to pay the people stitching (缝合) it together, and they put in roughly the same amount of time whether they’re working on a pair of pants or some shorts.

___20___ For another example, short-sleeved shirts cost roughly the same as long-sleeved shirts. There are also numerous invisible factors that make some shorts more expensive than nearly identical pairs, like where they were made9marketing costs, and the brand on the label. If you don’t want to spend $40 on something that covers just a small piece of leg, stay at home with your wallet!

A. More or less, shorts almost cost what pants do.

B. This is where the true cost of a garment is determined.

C. This price trend becomes popular across the fashion field.

D. This is because most of the cloth is sewn into the top half.

E. In general, a pair of shorts isn’t any cheaper than a pair of pants.

F. To tell you the truth, it is a real bargain to pay for a pair of shorts.

G. Customers are willing to purchase a pair of shorts if it is at a reasonable price.

文章主要讲述了短裤不比长裤便宜的原因。

17. 根据前句They’re just pricing shorts according to what it costs to produce them.可知此处是在讲短裤的价格。

18. 根据前句shorts that don’t fall past your knees may contain just a fifth less cloth than ankle-length trousers.可知不是太多的布料还可以用,因为大部分的布料都在上半部分。

19. 根据前句Those same details that end up accounting for most of the material—pockets, belt loops, waist bands—also require the most human labor to make.可知此处说明短裤的价格是前面的因素造成的。

20. 根据后句For another example, short-sleeved shirts cost roughly the same as long-sleeved shirts.可知这一趋势十分流行。

此处考查积极参加:take an active part in ,不能省略an

此处考查名词。Be of great benefitof 后用名词。

此处考查名词。以上的建议不止一条所以用复数。

Dear Tom,

Having known that you intend to give your sister a kite as a birthday gift, I am writing to introduce two types of kites I’ve chosen for you.

The eagle kite is made of plastic while the butterfly kite is made of cloth. Besides, the difference in size is quite obvious. The eagle kite is 1.6m by 0.9m while the butterfly kite is 1.1m by 0.6m. Concerning the price, the eagle kite is sold for 80 yuan, 20 yuan cheaper than the butterfly kite.

In my view, it is quality that matters. The butterfly kite is smaller and less fragile, making it easy to carry and keep. So it’s a better choice.

Looking forward to your early reply.

Yours,

Li Hua
