2."Would you mind putting all of the heavy things in one bag and all of the light things in another?" I ask the shop bagger at Whole Foods.
"Sure,no problem," he says. "Are you okay?"
I tell him I'm recovering from shoulder surgery (手術(shù)) and can't lift more than three pounds with my right arm,and he insists on carrying both bags to my car.He tells me he recently had back surgery,and we chat about our experiences recovering from unexpected surgery.
As I'm cutting vegetables later that evening,I notice myself smiling about the pleasant afternoon I had.As a writer working at home,I spend a lot of time alone each day.I spent the previous month in a sling (懸?guī)В?,so the silences felt heavier.
On that day in particular,I didn't see my husband,friends,or family members,but I still felt cheerful.
I commented on Netflix's "You" with my doctor.I made small talk with the cashier at Whole Foods,who I discovered is also a writer.And there was the friendly conversation with the shop bagger.
It turns out these small interactions (互動) were enough to lift my mood (心情).Our social lives consist of both "weak ties" and "strong ties." A strong tie is your husband or wife,parent,brother or sister,or best friend,while a weak tie is an acquaintance (認(rèn)識的人) of sorts — someone like your barista who prepares coffee in a coffee shop or the cashier at your favorite store.
"These kinds of small interactions with acquaintances make us feel good," says professor Gillian Sandstrom at the University of Essex. "It makes us feel more trust in the world and more of a sense of community.I think that's something humans really need."
So next time,when meeting someone who you know slightly,try making a conversation.And you may feel as happy as me.
(1)Which of the following can be used to describe the shop bagger?
A.Confident.
B.Kind.
C.Humorous.
D.Proud.
(2)What did the author think of her previous life?
A.Terribly painful.
B.Quite exciting.
C.Rather busy.
D.Very lonely.
(3)Why was the author happy that day?
A.She became a writer's close friend.
B.She spent quality time with her relatives.
C.She was as healthy as before the surgery.
D.She communicated with some acquaintances.
(4)What do Sandstrom's words suggest?
A.Weak ties play an important role in our life.
B.Strong ties help build a sense of community.
C.It is important to interact with family members.
D.It is sometimes hard to meet a nice acquaintance.組卷:0引用:1難度:0.5 -
3.Nobody likes waiting in long lines at amusement parks,especially when you are with babies.Disneyland or Disney World are known for their splendid rides,attractions and large crowds as well.The familiar result is that many guests have spent a lot of time just waiting on lines while visiting the theme parks,which annoys the majority.
Until recently,both parks have made use of the FastPass system to keep guests moving.On certain rides,park-goers could obtain a ticket that allowed them to come back within a specific time window.At that point,they would wait on a special line for seating.As explained in a recent YouTube share,the system worked similarly to a real queue.Instead of waiting in line,guests could continue to explore the park and,most importantly for Disney,spend more money at shops and restaurants.
While the FastPass system became popular,usage ended during the recent pandemic (流行病).With
both the California and Florida theme parks operating at reduced visiting number,the space taken up by FastPass kiosks was instead used for socially distanced lines.
In its place,Disney has developed a new planning tool called Disney Genie.The online app,which became available in Disney World in October,allows guests to create a path for their visit.By using park data that's updated throughout the day,the app will help guests plan out their visit so that they can hit the rides and attractions that they want in the most convenient way.Guests using the app pay an extra fee and get the option to book the next available time to ride select attractions.
(1)What may upset most visitors of Disney?
A.Fewer attractions.
B.High prices at restaurants.
C.Poor equipment in theme parks.
D.Waiting in lines for most of the time.
(2)What does the underlined word "obtain" in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Get.
B.Buy.
C.Earn.
D.Find.
(3)What does FastPass system bring about?
A.Lower ticket fees.
B.Less visitors in Disney.
C.Extra income at shops in Disney.
D.Having a comfortable and better seat.
(4)Where is the text most likely from?
A.A diary.
B.A text book.
C.A novel.
D.A magazine.組卷:0引用:1難度:0.5

8.It's important to be a student with good manner in our daily life.
Last Monday morning,I went to school by bus with Liu 'Tao whom is my classmate.There were much people on the bus.When an old woman got on the bus at the next stop,Liu Tao stood up and gave his seat her.The old woman thanked Lu 'Tao for his kind.I thought Liu Tao was very polite.
