21、Hotels are no longer the first or the only choice for travelers in China to sleep in at night. A new type of accommodation（住宿）choice called bed-and-breakfast（B&B）is welcoming more visitors in China.

During this month’s Golden Week, bookings for the B&B in China grew by 400 percent from 2016, according to the B&B booking website tujia.com.

Starting in Europe, B&B is often a private family home. Travellers pay to stay overnight and have breakfast. In China, many B&Bs are in rural（农村的）areas and more about fun, experiences and new friendships, reported by China Daily.

“The meals are cooked by the host. Very often, vegetables are homegrown. Hosts and guests chat over the meal and play with the pets together,” Yu Minliang, a 23-year-old tourist from Shanghai, told China Daily.

However, as more B&Bs come out, the service sometimes may not be good enough. Some guests complained the soundproofing（隔音）was bad and the house was dirty.

To solve the problem, the first national industry standards were carried out on Oct.1. For example, every B&B should provide not more than 14 guest rooms and things like towels and sheets must be changed after every visitor.

The standards will help the B&B industry develop in a healthy and sustainable（可持续的）way, reported CNR（中国广播网）.

【1】What is B&B?

A．A new way of welcoming visitors in Europe.

B．A new type of sleeping at night in China.

C．The first choice to sleep at night in China.

D．A new type of accommodation choice in China.

【2】What do travelers usually do in B&Bs in China?

A．Cook meals and grow some vegetables.

B．Sleep at night and have breakfast.

C．Chat with each other and draw some pictures.

D．Cook meals and play with the pets together.

【3】Which of the following is NOT included in the standards?

A．Changing towels and sheets.

B．Providing not more than 14 guest rooms.

C．Making sure the rooms are clean and tidy.

D．Making sure hot water is in service all day.

【4】According to the last paragraph, we can infer ________.

A．the national standards are useless for the B&B industry

B．people have no interest in B&Bs

C．there will be a brighter future for the B&B industry

D．people will no longer choose B&Bs to live

22、   Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation (感觉)of warmth encourages emotional (情感的) warmth, while a cold drink in hand stops you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.

Psychologists have known that one person’s feeling of another’s “warmth” is a powerful determiner (决定因素) in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ understanding of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.

Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those feelings influence judgment in dozens of countries.

To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh did an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form. The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate (评估) the personality of the assistant . Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded the assistant as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.

“We based on our physical experiences even when we think abstractly (抽象地).” says Bargh.

【1】According to Paragraph 1, a person’s emotion may be affected by ______.

A. the visitors to his office B. the psychology lessons he has

C. the things he has bought online D. his physical feeling of coldness

【2】The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that ______.

A. adults should develop social skills B. caregivers should be healthy adult

C. babies need warm physical contacts D. monkeys have social relationships

【3】We can infer from the passage that ______.

A. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences

B. physical temperature affects how we see others

C. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide

D. capable persons are often cold to others

【4】What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Drinking for Better Social Relationships.

B. Physical Sensations and Emotions.

C. Developing Better Drinking Habits.

D. Experiments of Rating the Personality.

23、   Do you know cold is not a serious illness, but it spreads(传输) very fast? Colds are caused by viruses(病毒). A sneeze(喷嚏) or a cough may take viruses from one person to another.

Here are some tips to stop colds from spreading.

1. Wash your hands a lot.

2. Don't sneeze or cough in front of others.

3. Have a rest if you don’t feel well, don’t study late at night —colds are always worse then.

24、Barbara couldn’t take it any more. Her upstairs neighbor was blasting (吹奏) his stereo (立体声) again. She had asked him twice already to turn the volume down. The first time she asked, he was surprised. He said he didn’t know that she could hear his stereo.

“Yes,” she said, “it’s just like your stereo was in my living room. I can hear every note!”

He said he would keep it down. She hoped that he was telling the truth. Of course, he wasn’t. The very next day, he blasted his stereo. She went upstairs to remind him of his promise.

When she went back to her room, the music was louder than when she had walked upstairs.

So, this was the third time. She took her baseball bat upstairs with her. She knocked very loudly on his door. When he opened the door, she screamed (尖叫) at him like a crazy person. She told him she would kill him if he didn’t turn the music down and keep it down. His eyes got big.

25、   A man came home from work late, and he was very t【1】 after a day's hard work. Suddenly, he found his 5­-year-old son w【2】 for him at the door.

“Daddy, how m【3】 money do you make an hour?”

“Oh, $20 an hour.” The boy thought for a moment and asked, “Daddy, could you l【4】 me $10?”
