Upset, Mag ran away. Paul and Billy set out to build a bike ramp out of a wooden board and an upturned metal bucket. One end of the board rested on the ground while the other rested on the bucket. The hilly terrain seemed perfect for their plan. However, each attempt to ride the ramp ended with the board out of place. Determined to secure the board, Paul rushed to his fathers shed and returned with four leftover house bricks. Placing them strategically, he hoped it would now hold for their stunt attempts. Paul gave Billy the thumbs up, who was waiting at the hills highest point. Billy raised himself off his seat. Riding down, he faced the strong wind, his helmet swinging. Absorbed in their testing, neither noticed Mag approaching with her own plan. Hidden behind a tree, Mag, seeing her chance, kicked the board off the bucket. Just at that moment, Billys bike arrived and he simply could not brake in time. With no ramp, the bike swung violently off course, heading directly toward the shed. Reacting swiftly, Paul leaped aside, avoiding the bikes path while Billy hit the shed door with a loud bang. Mag, realizing her fault, began to sob in regret. “Why did you do that?” Paul, dusting himself down, turned to face his sister. Tearfully, Mag blurted, “You guys said I couldnt have a go “ Pauls anger faded away. He said gently, “You cant take part in the sport, but you can help us rebuild the ramp.” Smiling weakly, Mag put her hand in her big brothers. They headed over to help Billy, who was a little shaken but otherwise unhurt.4. Why did Mag feel “Its not fair!”?A. She didnt have a good bike.B. She was too young to ride a bike.C. She was refused to build the ramp.D. She was left out of the stunt bike training.5. What was Mags plan?A. To build her own bike ramp.B. To apologize for her fault.C. To damage the bike ramp.D. To beg for Pauls permission.6. How did Mag feel before witnessing Billy hit the shed door?A. Regretful.B. Cheerful.C. Expectant.D. Angry.7. What was Paul like in the story?A. Ambitious and selfless.B. Caring and understanding.C. Warm-hearted and courageous.D. Humble and considerate.CI dropped “rizz” into a conversation at home as a test to see my sons familiarity with Internet slang. “Dont say that,” he said. “You sound terrible.” In terms of ego, it was a failure. But as a test of generational differences in language use, it was a success. I read in a newspaper that Oxford University Press had chosen “rizz” as the word of 2023. Short for charisma, rizz is defined as “style, charm, or attractiveness”. Internet slang has been confusing and difficult for me to understand. Considering it enjoys great popularity among Gen Z associates, as a Gen X director, should I keep up with the Internet slang and be prepared for it at work? One thing is clear: The attempt to resist is in vain. Internet slang is a product of its time. Technology makes humour more important. Slang, says Erica Dhawan, author of Digital Body Language, “can create closeness with colleagues when body language is no longer the primary communication”. That doesnt mean Gen X leaders should be trying to drop “rizz” into conversation. It is embarrassing. Partly it seems fake, but also because it is hard to keep up with the way language changes if not immersed in it. Tony Thorne, of the Slang and New Language Archive at Kings College London, says Gen Z is “heavily influenced by viral trends, it is not strictly only verbal . it always has one eye on visual metaphors and allusions (影射) too”. Workplace norms evolve. Just five years ago senior leaders were complaining about headphones in the office, Dhawan points out. “Now theyre normal.” So too with language. Slang slips into common usage quickly. Oxford University Presss past years words include “vax”, “toxic” and “climate emergency”, all of which seem fairly mainstream now. Who signs their emails with “Yours faithfully”? Far more common is: “Thanks”, “Kind regards” or “Best wishes”. I still frown when I see signoffs like KR or BW-but give me another year, Thx.8. What advantage does Internet slang bring to people according to Erica Dhawan?A. Close relationships.B. High working efficiency.C. Personal popularity.D. Good reputation.9. What should Gen X leaders do with Internet slang?A. Oppose it.B. Keep up with it.C. Let it slide.D. Use it in conversation.10. What does the author think of senior leaders acceptance of Internet slang?A. Its hard to tell.B. Its a matter of time.C. Its a piece of cake.D. Its out of the question.11. Which is the most suitable title for the text?A. Where Internet Slang Will Lead the Gen XB. Why Internet Slang Is a Riddle for BossesC. How Internet Slang Affects Relationship among ColleaguesD. What Role the Youth Play in the Development of LanguageDYou laugh out loud when a friend misses a step on the stairs, but soon you feel guilty of laughing at others clumsiness. You may ask yourself “Shouldnt I feel empathetic (共情的) for the person involved?” Dont worry. Your laughter is not provoked by lack of empathy. As a clinical psychologist, Id like to shed light on different aspects of such a situation which can bring our usually well-meaning laughter. The first of these ingredients is surprise. The unexpected situation surprises us and creates a departure from the predictable, from what we expected to see. This incongruous (不一致的) situation highlights our errors of prediction. Laughing at the situation is a way of resolving the incongruity by making a new and comic interpretation of what we witnessed. Besides, we react according to how we interpret the persons facial expression. A study explored this. Participants were asked to view 210 images representing three types of faces: faces expressing a puzzled look, faces expressing pain or anger, and people whose bodies were placed in awkward positions, without the face being visible. At the end of the study, participants rated the images with puzzled faces as funnier than images in which the faces expressed pain or anger, and funnier than images in which bodies were shown in ridiculous positions but no facial expression was seen. So when we perceive puzzlement in the facial expression of the victim of clumsiness, this information creates a context that makes us laugh. On the other hand, if we can read suffering or anger in the facial expression, we will be touched by the pain of the victim of the fall and be empathetic, which will prevent us from laughing. Lets forgive ourselves for laughing at comical situations involving other peoples clumsiness! Having learnt that they are not actually in danger and have not really hurt themselves, we arent laughing at the other persons suffering.12. What does the underlined word “provoked” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Determined.B. Confirmed.C. Caused.D. Prevented.13. What makes us laugh at other peoples clumsiness?A. Unpredictability.B. Visibility.C. Dignity.D. Identity.14. What do we know about the study?A. The faces expressing pain or anger were often ignored.B. Awkward positions seemed funnier than puzzled expressions.C. People laughed at others suffering in unfortunate situations.D. Participants were asked to indicate how funny the images were.15. What does the author think of laughing at peoples awkwardness?A Praiseworthy.B. Unacceptable.C. Forgivable.D. Ridiculous.第二节（共5小题：每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分）阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。If you are looking to replace or update your smartphone, take a beat and think it over.
