But the amount of time spent in reading each session had declined,from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.2021 年高考英语全国 2 卷试题及答案When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel (建议)parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does pointout that many parents still limit electronic reading mainly due to concerns about increasedscreen time.The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving asexamples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows thatkids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books inthe home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents whoset aside time for them to read.At the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom( 逼近) ahead,parents might take the chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan afamily trip to the library or bookstore.28. What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?A. Childrens reading habits.B. Quality of childrens books.C. Childrens after-class activities.D. Parent-child relationships.29.

Why do many parents limit electronic reading?2021 年高考英语全国 2 卷试题及答案intelligence. Its more likely that none of us start a conversation because its awkward andchallenging, or we think its annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourselfamong strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say its aninvaluable social practice that results in big benefits.Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we cant forget that deeprelationships wouldnt even exist if it werent for casual conversation. Small talk is thegrease (润滑剂 ) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of theShyness Research Institute at Indian University Southeast. “Almost every great love storyand each big business deal begins with small talk,” he explains. “The key to successfulsmall talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.”In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology atUBC, invitedpeople on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction ( 互动) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that thosewho chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a bettercoffee shop experience. “Its not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to yourhusband,” say Dunn. “But interactions with peripheral (边缘的) members of our socialnetwork matter for our well-being also.”Dunn believes that people who research out to strangers feel a significantly greatersense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense ofbelonging starts with small talk. “Small talk is the basis of good manners,” he says.32. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?A. Addiction to smartphones.B. Inappropriate behaviours in public places.C. Absence of communication between strangers.D. Impatience with slow service.33. What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?A. Showing good manners.C. Focusing on a topic.B. Relating to other people.D. Making business deals.B. It raises peoples confidence.D. It makes people feel good.34. What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?A. It improves family relationships.35. What is the best title for the text?C. It matters as much as a formal talk.2021 年高考英语全国 2 卷试题及答案A. Conversation CountsB. Ways of Making Small TalkC. Benefits of Small TalkD.
