immediately go to your keyboard and start to type out that 280-character tweet,the Facebookreply,or a paragraphs-long email.Surely the reason,logic,and strong power of your written words will convincewhoever it is who disagrees with you to see your point of view.But new research suggests a different idea.That research was conducted by Juliana Schroeder,assistant professor of University of California,Berkeley,andher colleagues.In Schroeder s study of almost 300 people,participants were asked to watch,listen,and read argumentsabout subjects they agreed or disagreed with.They were asked to judge the character of the communicator and thequality of the argument.Schroeders team found that the participants who watched or listened to the communicatorwere less dismissive（抵 触 的）of their claims than when they read that communicators same argument.The idea for her study came from a newspaper article about a politician.One of us read a speech that was printedin a newspaper from a politician with whom he strongly disagreed.The next week,he heard the exact same speechplaying on a radio station.He was shocked by how different his reaction was toward the politician when he read thespeech compared to when he heard it.When he read the statement,the politician seemed idiotic,but when he heard itspoken,the politician actually sounded reasonable.So in the workplace,speaking to someone in person often involves nothing more than walking a few doors down totheir office.And thafs exactly what you should do if you need to convince that boss or colleague of why your blueprintfor the company or project is the right one.Only as a last way should you try to communicate with someone who you disagree with over social media.Twitterslimited text allowance and social media users short attention make arguing your point an uphill battle.1、W hafs the result of the research?A.Written words are more logical and reasonable.B.People prefer to communicate with key board.C.When reading an argument,the participants were less dismissive than hearing it.D.Oral,not written,communication works better.2、Why is the politician mentioned in paragraph3?A.To introduce the topic for discussion.B To summarize the previous paragraphs.C.To explain why Schroeder conducted the research.D.lb introduce the politicians speech.3、What does the underlined word idiotic”in paragraph 3 mean?A.Wise.B.Practical.C.Silly.D.Special.4、What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A.To persuade your boss,you need to walk to his office and leave a message.B.Its difficult to fully explain your points due to social medias limitation.C.Arguing over social media is more convenient than speaking in person.D.Communicating with others over social media is encouraged.23.（8 分）When Charles Lee handed me the small red notebook in 1974,he changed my life.“While you aretraveling,you should keep notes of things you see and do,“he explained.I was 20 years old,a junior in college,spending a term at the University of London.Charles was a retired travelingsalesman.I was staying with him in his cottage in Kendal,located in the Lake District of northern England.It was aone-week homestay the university arranged for us before classes began.I took his advice.1 wrote in the notebook every day during the homestay.Back in London,I recorded weekendtrips to Wales,Yorkshire,France,and Spain.I commented on my classes,professors,and classmates.I contrasted mylife at a small college in the US with my wandering through the streets of London,my introduction to life in a big city,and my initial travels outside the US.I tracked ideas I had about my life and my future.When I wrote in the notebook,I struggled with a sense of my audience and purpose.Who would read this?Werethese writings just for me,or did I want others to read them?Was I recording events and ideas just as a prompt（提 示）tomemory,or was there some larger purpose for this daily exercise?I knew I was recording events,thoughts,words that were important to my life.I imagined a future me sitting downto read the pages.I wondered what it would feel like to read those words later.I wondered where I would be and whatmy life would be like.I filled the notebook Charles gave me.I bought a new one and filled it.Then another and another.I continuedwriting in notebooks for four decades.By that time,they filled two boxes in my garage.I had reread some of the journals.Specific volumes had provided me with the background I needed for dozens ofarticles for magazines.But I had never read them all.Recently,I decided to bring my collection of notebooks into myoffice and replay my life.As I opened the first box,I suddenly became nervous would I like the former me described onthose pages?There was a risk in opening that first notebook.I did it anyway.Charles had been right.I remembered the big events and the central happenings,but on each page were manydetails I hadn retained（保 留）.The pages revealed highlights from college classes and stories about roommates and friends.I read anxiouscomments Id written as Id launched my teaching career,learned to write lesson plants,assigned grades for studentwork,and solved discipline problems.I reflected on my coming marriage,then the wedding,and eventually the proudmoments when I held each of my three girls as a father.I recounted more tripsreturning to Europe,teaching in SouthAmerica,going on safari（游 猎）in Africa,and exploring Greenland.I relived memories of trails hit,rivers crossed,andmountains climbed.The writings in those journals framed my life.I hadnt written every day.I often skipped a few days or even weeks,but I always picked up the writing when it felt important.Journals went with me when I traveled,and I often wrote inthem at school when my own students were writing.It took several long evenings to read through the notebooks,taking me on tour spanning（持 续）42 years.As I read Icould recall sitting on a bench in Trafalgar Square in London or in our apartment in Peru to write to the future me.Itwas then that I realized:I am now the person I was writing to throughout those years.1、What can we learn about Charles Lee?A.He was an Englishman the author came across.B.He gave the author a notebook as birthday present.C.The author gained valuable experience of life from him.D.The author once lived in his house as a college graduate.2、One reason why the author kept writing journals was that he wanted t o A.let others read what he wrote in the futureB.live up to Charles Lees expectation for himC.know what his life would be like in the futureD.leave something special to his three daughters3、How did the author feel when he opened the first box filled with his journals?A.Curious.B.Worried.C.Surprised.D.Disappointed.4、By mentioning the highlights in Paragraph 10,the author intends to tell u s.A.the regrets he had about his lifeB.the benefits of keeping journalsC.the big events that happened to himD.the themes of his articles for magazines5、We can learn from the passage that the a u t h o r.A.rarely wrote journals at schoolB.keeps a daily journal of his lifeC.even wrote journals when travelingD.had kept writing journals for five decades6、What would be the best title for the passage?A.Rereading my journals B.My interesting experience of lifeC.A red notebook D.A gift to my future self24.（8 分）Flowers make people happy.And while that might seem obvious,there hasnt been much research toprove the point until now.Some new studies by Rutgers University scientists support the idea strongly,and the experts go on to assume thatflowers have flourished on this planet,with their beauty evolving in recent thousands of years,partly because humansare so attached to them.In a test,bunches of flowers were sent by florists to 113 men and women in a retirement community.All 113 gotflowers and a notebook,but some got them earlier and received a second bunch when the others got theirs.By now youcan guess the outcome.The more flowers,the more smiles.The results of the studies got the scientists to thinking about how the flower industry of today has evolved intogrowing things that serve no other purpose than emotional（情 感 上 的）satisfaction.Nature wont even pollinate（授 粉）many of the domesticated flowers.Just among roses,there are so many types created by humans that,clearly,flowersarent what they used to be.But ifs likely our collective hand has played a role longer than you might think.Geneticist（遗 传 学 家）Terry McGuire suggests that natures prettier flowers got to survive and develop wellbecause people didnt destroy them when they cleared for agriculture.Instead,they grew them and have been doing sofor over 2,000 years.Because theyre a source of pleasure,we take care of them.In that sense they5re like dogs.Theyare the pets of the plant world.McGuire says.Here is one way that might have worked:Many species of flowers that are now planted used to grow only when the ground was disturb
