"Apologies force us to admit to ourselves that we don't always live up to our own standards. We might also fear that the victim won't accept our apology, further damaging our positive sense of self. For these reasons, an apology can be very difficult to give. ”For many, apologizing is stressful, awkward and uncomfortable. But a heartfelt apology has positive effects. It can improve your mental health, repair damaged relationships and promote self-esteem. "Apologies act as a signal of one's moral character, Fehr says.Researchers at Ohio State University have determined that effective apologies have five elements: expressing regret, explaining what went wrong, acknowledging responsibility, offering to repair the situation and requesting forgiveness. All five aren't necessary every time. "The more of those elements were included, the more likely the apology was seen as convincing, “says Roy Lewicki, the lead study author. "Acknowledgement of responsibility turned out to be the most important piece, followed by an explanation of why it happened and declaration of regret.95“Sometimes, an immediate apology is called for, “says Antony Manstead, a psychology professor at Cardiff University. "But if the other party is angry at your wrongdoing, it may be more effective to wait, because their anger may stop them accepting an apology. Some research suggests that a delay increases an apology's effectiveness because it conveys that the wrongdoer has had time to reflect on his/her misdeeds, says Mara Olekalns, a professor of management at Melbourne Business School. "The best time to apologize is when one feels ready to sincerely apologize, says Etienne Mullet, research director of the Ethics and Work Laboratory at the Institute of Advanced Studies. "There is nothing worse in these situations than insincere apologies.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了许多人拒绝道歉,因为道歉使他们很丢面 子。但是,道歉是一个人道德品质的标志,本文就给出有效的道歉进行了说明要承担责 任、越真诚越好。4.

Our habits have had to change to accommodate the reality of coronavirus. People are advised against touching high-touch surfaces in public places, including elevator buttons, door handles, and especially other people's hands. Consequently, the traditional habit of handshake has been substituted for other gestures, like elbow bump (碰撞)and foot tap, which involve less bodily contact. 2 The foot tap and the elbow bump have a way of feeling vaguely ridiculous, and it's hard to take them entirely seriously, especially in business settings. Centuries of tradition has normalized handshake in our culture, and it may be too deeply rooted in our custom to be abandoned.3 In 1996, a sales manager developed an experiment to test the impact of the handshake on strangers. He found that more people told the truth when he introduced himself to them with a handshake before asking the question. " A handshake, “he later told The New York Times. "creates a higher level of trust, a degree of familiarity, within a matter of seconds.”With more communication on screen, the handshake is an occasion to reach out and touch one another, to enjoy a tiny, fleeting connection. 4 And meeting someone face to face, whether a client or a colleague, always suggests a closer level of familiarity than merely touching base online.As the coronavirus spreads and habits change, it may prove that you can't fist bump or foot tap a handshake either. There's something in human nature that responds to the handshake. It feels good to shake the hand of someone you respect or admire, to have that moment of bonding. 5 When COVID-19 is a distant memory, chances seem good that the handshake will prevail (流 T)again.A. The handshake is the first thing to go.B. In a sense it can't be seriously replaced.C. The handshake is a way of maintaining relationships.D. The real human contact feels all the more precious now.E. The handshake is also a rare gesture of casual closeness.F. These touch-free alternatives are likely to replace the handshake.G. However, adjusting to these new forms of greeting has been difficult.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章说明因为新型冠状病毒,握手这一传统的手势被其他 的问候姿势替代。但是作者认为握手有助于让人们之间建立亲密感,不会被真正代替的。1 .【解析】选A。空前一句说明因为新型冠状病毒,我们不得不改变习惯;而A项说明因为 新型冠状病毒,人们首先要改变握手的习惯。下文第二段说明握手的传统习惯被其他的姿势 所替代。故选A。2 .【解析】选Go空前一句说明为了减少身体接触,传统的握手的习惯已经用其他的手势代 替,像手肘相碰和脚相碰;而G项说明适应这些新的问候方式一直很困难。其中However表 示转折;these new forms of greeting 指代空前句中的 0ther gestures, like elbow bump and foot tap0 故选 Go.【解析】选E。该空位于段落的首句,应该是该段的主题句;E项说明握手也是一种罕见的 很随意、也很亲密的手势。下文又提到一位销售经理做的一个实验,他认为握手在几秒钟内 就能营造出很高程度的信任和熟悉感。其中trust(信任),familiarity(熟悉)和E项中的 closeness(亲密)意思相关。故E项可以作为该段的主题句。3 .【解析】选Do空前一句说明现在人们在屏幕上的交流越来越多;空后一句提到与人面对 面交流,总能让人感到更加熟悉。而D项说明“现在人与人之间的真正接触显得更加珍贵了二 其中the real human contact与空前一句中的communication on screen相对应,也与空后一句中的 meeting someone face to face 意思相同。故选 Do4 .【解析】选B。B项说明在某种意义上,握手是不能被真正取代的;空后一句提到当新型冠 状病毒肺炎成为一个遥远的记忆时,握手有可能还是会流行,空后一句是顺承B项的话题, 说明握手这一问候姿势不会被其他的姿势替代,还是会流行起来的。故选Bom.语法填空The height of the world's 1.(high) mountain, Mount Qomolangma, also known 2.
