When I was a little girl, a cuple in ur cmmunity went thrugh a tragedy. They lst a yung child and were in deep despair. Shrtly afterward, my mther ran int the father at the lcal supermarket. He turned t my mther and said, “Yur husband saved ur life. He was the ne mre than anyne else wh helped us get thrugh this incredible lss.”
My mther wanted t knw what message f slace was given t lift them frm the depths f despair. S back at hme, she asked my father abut their cnversatin numerus times, but my father insisted that he had said nthing.
A few weeks later the cuple came ver t ur hme. After sitting dwn fr a few minutes, my mther gently said, “Yu tld me that my husband helped yu the mst when yu went thrugh yur awful sadness. What did he say?”
The man paused. He then gave the secret f my father’s cnslatin (慰藉).
“Rebbetzin, yur husband did nt say ne wrd. He just came ver t ur hme and walked ver t me withut saying anything. And then he reached ver t me, tk my hands int his and hugged me. I lked up and saw tears falling frm his eyes. Yu cannt imagine what that felt like. Yur husband felt my pain. I was nt sitting alne with my suffering.”
My mther was quiet, absrbing the message this man was giving.
“N, yur husband did nt speak. I didn’t need him t give me wrds. I needed his heart and sul.”
When I recall this stry, I realize the truth.
When having smene in ur lives wh is ging thrugh difficulty, we are ften at a lss. What d we say? Hw d we make it all better? What is the greatest gift we can give t ur lved nes?
We tend t think that we must fill space with wrds. But when yu want t give f yurself, give a listening heart. Smetimes a persn in pain needs yu t stay silent. Just shw that yu are there fr them. Perhaps yu can’t fix anything r take away the pain, but yu can feel it. With the silence cmes sympathy, understanding and empathy (共鸣). And yu share the lad.

Accrding t a well-knwn team f researchers, there are three kinds f smiles: genuine, false, and miserable. Hw can we distinguish them? In experiments where subjects are shwn phts f fake and spntaneus smiles, peple are pretty gd at telling the difference. But in the real wrld, mst peple are less able t distinguish between them. They are distracted by ther elements f cmmunicatin such as speech, hand gestures, and ther bdy mvements. Hwever, if they were t fcus nly n the face, they wuld prbably knw whether a smile was genuine r nt.
This is because tw muscles are invlved in spntaneus smiling. The first muscle is a ring-like band f muscle arund each eye. When it cntracts, it causes what we knw as “smiling eyes”. The ther muscle extends frm the tp f the cheekbne t the crners f the muth. It mves the muth upwards when we smile. This muscle n its wn prduces what we call the “muth smile. ”When peple genuinely smile, in a spntaneus burst f psitive emtins, the crners f the muth mve up and the muscles arund the eyes als cntract. It is these muscles that shw that a smile is sincere.
Smiles can mean very different things in different cuntries. In the USA, fr example, a smile is a friendly, psitive gesture f trust. In cntrast, in sme Asian scieties, peple smile when they are happy, f curse, but als when they feel anger, sadness, cnfusin, r embarrassment, perhaps t mask their true feelings.
Cultural nrms aside, sme peple tend t smile mre than thers and that seems t indicate they are cheerful, ptimistic types. But that relatinship isn’t strictly true. Sme peple rarely smile and are quite happy. Others ften have a smile n their face when they are actually feeling anxius. Human cmmunicatin is full f uncertainties and we smetimes have a difficult time understanding each ther, but a genuine, heartfelt smile that lights up a face can never be misunderstd.
8. What did the experiments shw?
A. Mst peple tend t frce a smile when taking pictures.
B. Peple wearing a fake smile can be genuine smetimes.
C. Peple using bdy language are ften smiling genuinely.
D. Mst peple fail t detect fake smiles in reality due t distractins.
9. What is paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. Hw t cntrl facial muscles.B. Hw smiles influence emtins.
C. Hw t distinguish different smiles.D. Hw spntaneus smiling happens.
10. Why are the USA and sme Asian scieties mentined in the text?
A. T shw the prblems brught by smiling.
B. T shw sme cultural differences f smiling.
C. T explain hw peple hide their true feelings.
D. T explain why smiling mre can have psitive effects.
11. What can we infer frm the last paragraph?
A. Smiling has little t d with character.B. Smiling can clear up misunderstandings.
C. Peple rarely smiling are hard t get n with.D. Uncertain smiles cannt lead t clse relatinships.
D
The Glbal Fd Dnatin Plicy Atlas has issued a recent reprt in rder t recmmend ways t increase fd dnatins, reduce fd waste, and fight hunger, which may help Kenyan leaders meet 2030 fd waste reductin gals.
Fd dnatin can rerute eatable fd—that wuld therwise give ff greenhuse gasses in a landfill—t thse experiencing hunger. Accrding t the Famine Early Warning Systems Netwrk, 3.5 millin Kenyans, rughly 37 percent f the ppulatin, face severe hunger. At the same time, the Plicy Atlas reprts rughly 40 percent f fd prduced within Kenya ges t waste. But Brad Leib, Deputy Directr f Harvard Law Schl Fd Law and Plicy Clinic (FLPC), sees sme prmising changes. “While prgress is nt happening as quickly as needed, Kenya’s fd lss index has been steadily reduced frm 1,744 metric tns in 2017, t 1,531 in 2018, t 1,446 metric tns in 2019, indicating a steady imprvement and natinal cmmitment t fd lss reductin,” reprts Brad Leib.
Accrding t the Plicy Atlas, mtivating fd dnatin with rewards is particularly imprtant, which helps fd dnrs and fd recvery rganizatins make up fr csts necessary fr recvery, string, prcessing, and transprting fd fr dnatin.
“A majr driver f fd waste is incnsistent r unclear date labels that cause cnfusin amng all actrs alng the value chain and limit the ability f businesses t dnate fd. This increases the likelihd that much safe fd will g t waste,” Brad Leib tells Fd Tank. Hwever, he acknwledges Kenya’s current dual (双的) date labeling laws. While fd may lse its freshness ver time, it is still eatable befre expiratin (到期). Dual date labeling n packaged fds reduces bewilderment by defining dates fr bth safety and quality. This helps reduce cnsiderable waste and respnsibility fr dnrs.
Brad Leib believes that the private sectr can als play a significant rle in decreasing fd waste in Kenya. It is vital fr cnsumer educatin campaigns. FLPC’s research shws that public-private initiatives can help raise awareness amng cnsumers and dnrs arund issues f fd waste and fd dnatin.
12. What changes des Brad Leib see?
A. Peple in Kenya n lnger suffer hunger.
B. Kenya has gradually reduced its fd waste.
C. Kenya is nt cmmitted t reducing fd lss.
D. Prgress in reducing fd waste is happening quickly.
13. What des the underlined wrd “bewilderment” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Sadness.B. Cnvenience.C. Cnfusin.D. Emtin.
14. Hw can Kenya reduce fd waste accrding t Brad Leib?
A. By increasing strehuses.
B. By fighting hunger with rewards.
C. By reducing fd prduced within the cuntry.
D By using duble date labeling n packaged fd.
15. What can we learn frm the last paragraph?
A. Cnsumer educatin campaigns are the mst imprtant.
B. Only the private sectr is helpful in reducing fd waste.
C. Private and public jint effrts matter arund fd issues.
D. Brad Leib desn’t agree with FLPC n fd waste reductin.
