While “Americans are loud” is a stereotype, perhaps there is some truth in it. It must be a stereotype for

22、 a reason.One complaint about Americans is that they are rude or arrogant, and this shows in the loud way that they talk. Americans are a contrast to British people who do things differently. There is something called the “British reserve” that runs throughout British culture.It began over 100 years

23、 ago. When Britain entered the Victorian era (1837-1901), attitudes in the country changed. Customs became more formal, and society became strict in its morals.Some of these changes affect culture today, especially British reserve. It helps to explain why people in the UK are obsessed with making po

24、lite queues. If you watch people waiting for a bus, you will notice the people automatically make a formal line, one after the other. Even if there is only one person waiting they will be right next to the stop the first in the queue.British reserve also carries the idea that it is better to hide em

25、otion or feelings. This is also known as a “stiff upper lip”. It means that you are strong when faced with difficulty and don't let your emotions affect you.But this can be a negative too. It can mean that you don't show emotion when you should. When Princess Diana died in 1992, Queen Elizab

26、eth II was criticized for having a stiff upper lip, and not showing that she was sad.To foreigners, British reserve is often rudeness. When they ask for directions in the street, they might get an abrupt reply. It might not be the friendliest way to be, but it's not supposed to offend.In truth,

27、the British could do with relaxing a little. Perhaps they could learn something from the Americans.21What is one complaint about Americans mentioned in the passage?AThey are too reserved.BThey are obsessed with making polite queues.CThey are often criticized for having a stiff upper lip.DThey are se

30、 maintain their reserve, but also learn from Americans.DThe British reserve is unnecessary and causes misunderstandings.24What does the underlined word “negative” mean in Chinese?A积极的B消极的C乐观的D兴奋的25What is the main idea of the passage?AThe cultural differences between Americans and British people, fo

32、cans.We can see circles, squares and triangles everywhere in our daily life. Have you thought about their meanings in films? Much like colors, different shapes can show different features of characters in the scenes. Circles represent (代表) things that are soft and natural. The round shape reminds us

33、 of things that appear in nature, like the sun, raindrops and so on. We can also connect circles with beautiful eyes, babies round faces. . . All these things make us feel happy and warm. This is why so many cartoon characters bodiesheroes, good peopleare round in shape, because circles represent go

34、odness, happiness and friendliness.Squares show things that are unnatural or man-made, or things that are boring or old-fashioned. In Up, Carl has a square face and wears square glasses, while Russell, an 8-year-old boy with a round face, always wears round medals. These shapes show the characters p

35、ersonalities. Carl is stubborn (执拗的) and lonely, while Russell is lovely and full of energy.The angriest shape is the triangle. Every kid who draws a monster with sharp teeth draws a row of triangles, dont they? Thats because the shape represents fear, distrust and doubt in some way. Look at the bad

36、 guys in cartoonsthey are all drawn with plenty of points and triangles (稳固的), like Shengongbao in Ne Zha. And triangles are stable (稳固的) and dont easily fall down. In films, this feature makes bad people difficult to deal with. Not only in cartoons, but also in other kinds of films, different shape

However researchers have actually found that those who report experiencing loneliness the most are young people, and their understand loneliness differently. Their loneliness mainly come from the relationship with

41、people around them. For young people, loneliness is “as a bad feeling about a difference between the relationships they have and those they want.” It appears in three ways.

42、ther reason is their developing sense of self-discovering who they are. The challenge is that their friends are going through the same process but might not follow the same directionl as them.
