This sayin

    2、g often attributed to the late Duchess (公爵夫人) of Windsor represents much of the odd spirit of our times. Being thin is considered as such virtue. The problem with such a view is that some people actually attempt to live by it. I myself have fantasies of slipping into narrow designer cloches. Consequ

    3、ently, I have been on a diet for the better or worse-part of my life. Being rich wouldnt be bad either, but that wont happen unless an unknown relative dies suddenly in some distant land, leaving me millions of dollars. Where did we go off the track? When did eating butter become a sin, and a little

    4、 bit of extra flesh unappealing, if not upsetting? Until quite recently, most people had a problem getting enough to eat. In some religious groups, wealth was a symbol of probable salvation (救助) and high morals, and fatness a sign of wealth and well-being. Today the opposite is true. We have shifted

    5、 to thinness as our new mark of virtue. The result is that being fator ever only somewhat overweightis bad because it implies a lack of moral strength.Our obsession with thinness is also fueled by health concerns. It is true that in this country we have more overweight people than ever before, and t

    6、hat in many cases, being overweight is associated with an increased risk of heart and blood vessel disease. These diseases, however, may have as much to do with our way of life and our high-fat diets as with excess weight. And the associated risk of cancer in the digestive system may be more of a di

    7、etary problemtoo much fat and a lack of fiberthan a weight problem. The real concern, then, is not that we weight too much, but that we neither exercise enough nor eat well. Exercise is necessary for strong bones and both heart and lung health. A balanced diet without a lot of fat can also help the

    8、body avoid many diseases. We should surely stop paying so much attention to weight. Simply being thin is not enough. It is actually hazardous if those who get (or already are) thin think they are automatically healthy and thus free from paying attention to their overall life-style. Thinness can be p

    9、ure vainglory.36In the eyes of the author, an odd phenomenon nowadays is that _.Athe Duchess of Windsor is regarded as a woman of virtueBlooking slim is a symbol of having a large fortuneCbeing thin is viewed as a much desired qualityDreligious people are not necessarily kind-hearted37In human histo

    39、h of many adolescent users. Young girls, in particular, struggle with their body image thanks to a constant stream of photos and videos showing beautiful bodies that users dont think they can attain. While the information the Journal covered is essential and instructive, it does not tell the whole s

    44、redulity (夸张到难以置信) to believe it causes them in the first place. You create your own experiences on social media. For the most part, you choose which accounts to follow and engage. If youre already vulnerable to insecurities and self-sabotage (自损) as many teens are you will find accounts to obsess o

But any way, he was the strangest man. He was always making money on anything that turned up

    51、 if he could get anybody to try to make money on the other side. And if he could not do that, he would change sidesanyway that suited the other man would suit himanyway just as long as he got a bet, he was satisfied. But still, he was lucky, uncommonly lucky. He most always come out winner. He was a

    52、lways ready and laying for a chance. If there was a dog-fight, he would try to win money on it. If there was a cat-fight, he would take the risk. If there was a chicken-fight, he would try to bet on it. If there were two birds setting on a fence, he would want you to decide which one would fly first

    53、 so he could win money.Lots of the boys here have seen that Smiley and can tell you about him. Why, it did not matter to him. He would try to make money on anything. He was the most unusual man. Parson Walers wife was very sick once, for a long time, and it seemed as if they were not going to save h

    54、er. But one morning he came in, and Smiley asked him how was his wife, and he said she was better, thank God. And Smiley, before he thought, says, “Well, I will risk my money she will not get well.”And Smiley had a little small dog. To look at the dog, you would think he was not worth anything but t

    55、o sit around and look mean and look for a chance to steal something. But as soon as, money was up on him, he was a different dog. Another dog might attack and throw him around two or three times. Then all of a sudden Smileys dog would grab that other dog by the back leg and freeze to it till the men

    56、 said it was over.Smiley always came out the winner on that dog, at least until he harnessed a dog once that did not have any back legs. The dogs legs had been sawed off in a circular saw. Well, the fighting continued long enough and the money was all up. Then when Smileys dog came to make a grab of

    57、 the other dogs back legs, he saw in a minute how there was a problem. The dog appeared surprised, and then discouraged, and didnt try no more to win the fight, and so he got shucked out (摆脱) bad. He gave Smiley a look, as much as to say his heart was broke, and it was his fault, for putting up a do

    58、g that had no back legs for him to take hold of, which was his main dependence in a fight, and then he limped off a piece and laid down and died. He was a good dog, and would have made a name for himself if he had lived, for he had intelligence. It always makes me feel sorry when I think of that las

    68、f the second day I know Im in trouble. In front of me the land stretches up and away towards a distant hill, and into the space, between that hill and me, is crowded one of the most vivid concentrations of color I have ever seen. It starts with the trees. The wet season is only a few weeks off and a

    69、lmost as if they can smell the coming rains, they have put out their leaves. They are no ordinary green and the dry grasses beneath them are shining with golds, browns and reds. I want to recreate this scene with watercolors. Although I can make a try at it with words, trying to paint it in my sketc

    70、h book is another matter altogether. Ive already made one attempt: a series of lines in orange and red, with bluish trees placed across them, which now lies face down in the grass beside me. Ive put it there because the last thing I want right now is for someone else to come along and look at it. A

    71、young man called Royale walks up the hill. Royale is a sculptor, and, with several other local men, produces pieces of work in the local stone. Recently, and quite suddenly, this work, and that of several other local co-operatives, has acquired an international reputation. I certainly dont want a ma

    72、n capable of such things looking at my own awful painting. So I put my foot, as casually as I can, on the finished one beside me and we resume the conversation started earlier in the day. I want to talk to Royale about his life here. He, however, is only interested in what I am up to. To begin with,

    73、 it seems that he considers me a fellow artist, and for a moment I find myself staring into the depths of embarrassment. But when he asks me, “What is painting like?” I realize that this professional artist has never painted anything in his life before. He just wants a go with my colors.When I signe

    74、d up for this holiday, I was hoping for an experience like the one I had had four years earlier in Wales. That was my first painting holiday, and I loved it. Two things made it great. First was the teacher, a man called Robin, who showed me that what is important about drawing and painting is not th

    75、e finished article but the process of completing it. The second element of that week was the place. I grew up in places like that, and I connected with it immediately. But it was stupid of me to think that I could reproduce the experience down here, deep in the Southern Hemisphere. Zimbabwe is not a

    76、 part of me, nor I of it. Trying to draw it for the first time, from a standing start, is like trying to start a conversation in Swahili.36What problem does the writer have at the beginning of her holiday?AShe cant reproduce the exact color.BThere are no animals that she can paint.CShes brought the

    77、wrong materials with her.DThe weather is not good enough for painting.37The writer hid her work because _.Ait was only a quick sketchBit wasnt good enough to sellCshe believed Royale painted betterDshe thought it would disappoint Royale38What does the writer mean by “what I am up to” (in paragraph 3

Some havent been able to do their jobs at all, while others dont interact with customers the same way. In either case, tips dried up, causing a lot of people

    80、 to suffer. Meanwhile, many customers felt the need to tip more because of the new risks and hardships that essential service workers suddenly faced. Just as many services have changed, so should tipping. Some old standards no longer seem fair, and several newer ones will apply long after the pandem

    81、ic is over. Some new rules of tipping that are likely here to stay: Give more if you can. Its common for tips to be divided between all the workers at a store or restaurant, not just those who interact directly with customers. So giving generously ensures a fairer tip for all. Think outside the (cas

    82、h) box. You can also “tip” with a thank-you note or a homemade gift when a business (or your budget) doesnt permit gratuities. Consider writing a review online, making sure to name names. Treat business owners differently. A practice of the past, tipping the boss separately is no longer necessary. B

    83、ut if he provides you with your service, tip him as you would any of his workers. As for specific situations, heres what the experts recommend: FOOD AND DRINKS Restaurant workers Old rule: Leave a tip only when you dine in. New rule: Always tip, even for takeout. Tip: 15 to 20 percent when you dine

    84、in, and 10 to 15 percent on takeout or delivery orders. Personal shoppers Old rule: N/A(Not applicable). Many of these services, such as grocery pickup, are newer. New rule: Tip, and do it in the app, since you are unlikely to interact directly with your shopper. Tip: 10 to 15 percent. If a tip is a

    85、lready included, add a few dollars extra. HOME DELIVERIES Package delivery drivers Old rule: Dont tip. New rule: Show appreciation if you get deliveries more than once a week. Tip: Drinks, snacks, or $5 to $20 if a package is particularly heavy or large. Postal workers cannot accept cash or gifts wo

    86、rth more than $50 per year. UPS tells drivers to decline tips unless a customer insists. And FedEX prohibits employees from accepting cash or cash equivalents (such as gift cards). Flower delivery drivers Old rule: The person who places the order tips those who deliver flowers (and other specialty i

    87、tems). New rule: You cant assume the gift giver already tipped, so if youre lucky enough to get such a delivery, pass the goodwill along in the form of a tip. Tip: $5 to $10. PERSONAL SERVICES Ride-share drivers Old rule: Tip in cash. New rule: Ask your driver. The Lyft and Uber apps let you add gra

    88、tuities, but some drivers prefer cash. Tip: 15 to 20 percent. 40New rules of tipping are recommended because _.Athe pandemic has driven many businesses to financial ruinBsome people have to work from home without interactionCsome old standards cant help out some service workers nowDcustomers dismiss

    89、 the old standards as unfair to themselves41Which of the following is TRUE?ATip every worker fairly in case some may keep the money to himself.BWriting a review online is highly recommended to express gratitudeCThe more you tip, the more those who interact directly with you will get.DThere is no nee

During the lockdow

    92、n, to be confined in your home with the people you love most against an invisible disease may be, at times, uncomfortable. But it can also be like living inside a poem. For me, especially early in the pandemic, it was also more than a little like living in a war zone again. The danger is real but al

    93、so in some ways random. You assess risk constantly. In the first days of New Yorks lockdown, at the market closest to my house, the handle of the shopping cart stared up at me. It was a bluish-purple strand of plastic that seemed to hold death. I had left the house without wipes. My son was climbing

    94、 on everything. People said it felt like living in a horror movie. That was not the sensation. A horror movie moves between fear and the delighted anticipation of fear. The feeling in the market was the leaden tug of dread. It was steady, and pressed you down, the way a survivor of a bombing says a

    95、blast wave does. It was also a kind of gift. Against this backdrop, what you value in life is more vivid. You cant call it a silver lining, but there is a quality of light involved, a lining that lights up edges. As a friend said after receiving a stage 4 cancer diagnosis, “A mirror doesnt work with

    96、out backing. You need the black.”That is the value in these days. Ordinarily, to experience what much of the country was experiencing in kitchens and family rooms, you would have had to get yourself to join the army. I once was a war correspondent and ran a news center for a while in a war zone. The

    97、 danger was real but also in some ways random. We assessed risk constantly. And it was understood that any one of us would die for the other: “The truth of war,” David Finkel wrote in Thank You For Your Service, “is that its always about loving the guy next to you.” And if youre already in love with

    98、 that person? Think of a man in bed, his family asleep down the hall as he dreams of faraway places. I was in faraway places, dreaming of a family asleep down the hall. After we left the market I kept telling my son not to touch his face. So of course he reached for his cheek. Then he walked down a

    99、sidewalk that was all but empty.

    113、 get a lot is around the topic of professional certifications. People want to know if theyre worth it. After all, professional certifications cost hundreds - if not thousands - of dollars. And most require a significant investment of time and energy on top of it. So, do professional certifications a

    114、ctually have a measurable career payoff?The simple answer is this: I am a firm believer in the importance of lifelong learning. The payoffs are not always immediate and theyre often difficult to attribute directly to any one particular certification. Many people think of professional certifications

    115、as a tool for financial gain. Sometimes, yes, but not necessarily. For example, a recent Office-Team survey of the administrative profession found that employers pay up to 8%-more on average in the U. S. for employees who hold the MS Office Specialist certification. Thats a pretty clear and signific

    116、ant benefit! But its important to remember a few things when you hear that. First, MS Office is a very heavily used software suite and people in the administrative field are deeply reliant on it in many organizations. The MS certification is well-known and highly reputable. Possessing it demonstrate

    117、s expert-level mastery of the skills required to take advantage of systems like Excel, Word, and PowerPoint. It makes sense that employers are willing to pay a bit more for administrative professionals who have already proven their advanced mastery in these areas. However, what they are really payin

    118、g for is not the certificate itself - its the value a person can bring to the organization when they have these skills. The certificate just helps the organization identify those people who can deliver greater value, but you also have to show evidence of that value. Its not realistic to think that y

    119、ou can go to get a certificate and immediately demand more money. You have to use those skills to achieve more, and you have to be a vocal advocate for yourself and your accomplishments. Thats how you earn the rewards. Its also not realistic to expect that all certifications will have the same power

    120、ful impact. Not all are created equal. Some are not as well-known and some do not teach you the kinds of skills that result in measurable value to the organization. Thats not to say that other certifications dont matter. Sometimes, its not about the organization at all. Some people enjoy the process

    121、 of certification because it enhances their confidence and allows them to connect with other like-minded professionals. Some people like learning purely for the sake of personal growth. These things might not yield a direct financial benefit, but they are indeed valuable to you and your career. Over

    122、 time, that will pay off in more concrete ways. You have to first know what youre looking to gain to know whether or not its worth it, and you have to be insightful in your selection of certification programs.53Which statements is NOT true about professional certifications?AGaining professional cert

    123、ifications requires much money and energy.BEmployers will pay more for employees holding certain certifications.CThey indicate recognition of the mastery of skills for complex systems.DCertifications help organizations identify people who may bring value.54The author may probably agree that _.Alifel

    124、ong learning has nothing to do with gaining certificationsBthe investment in gaining certifications will immediately pay offCcertifications help employees employ and advocate their skillsDpeople can gain personal growth in the process of certification55What suggestion does the author put forward in

    125、terms of professional certifications?AKnow what you want and choose certification programs carefully.BBe a lifelong learner and care less about measurable career payoffsCThe MS Office Specialist certification is reliable and worth a try.DChoose famous certification programs offering long-term gains.56Which in the following can be the best title?ADo Certifications Equal Lifelong Learning?BDo Certifications Guarantee Financial Gain?CAre Professional Certifications Worth it?DBe Insightful in Selecting Certification Programs
