Have yu ever heard f “humblebragging”? We use it t describe smene wh seems t make a mdest (谦虚的) statement, but is actually trying t bring attentin t smething they are prud f.
Fr example, smene might say, “I just fund ut that I gt accepted t Beijing University and Tsinghua University. Maybe they gt my ffer mixed up with smene else’s!” They want t tell thers that they’ve been accepted t tw gd schls. But they dn’t want t seem arrgant (自大的). S instead, they say it in a way that seems mre mdest.
Althugh peple wh humblebrag think it will make them seem as cmmn as an ld she, a 2015 study in the Jurnal f Persnality and Scial Psychlgy shwed that humblebragging has the ppsite result. “Humblebragging backfires because it seems very unreal. The sad feelings expressed with self-praise des nt lead t a gd impressin (印象),” said Ovul Sezer, lead writer f the study. “Even simply bragging (吹牛) r cmplaining (抱怨) is better, because at least thse messages are seen as mre hnest.”
Humblebragging is cmmn and we all d it t sme degree. Jack Ma, wh set up Alibaba, nce said that his biggest mistake was starting the cmpany. “I never thught this thing wuld change my life. I was just trying t run a small business, and it grew s big!” he said.
Sezer said the best-way t share yur achievements is t “admit (承认) yur self-praise and receive a strng feeling f being yur real self”. In this way, peple will see that yu aren’t just shwing ff and are simply being hnest.
26．Which statement is NOT humblebragging?
A. The talented pianist Lang Lang said, “I gt the first prize after nly ne mnth’s practice.”
B. The rich man Wang Jianlin said, “Let’s set a small gal f 100 millin first.”
C. The emperr Kangxi said, “I want t live fr anther five hundred years!”
27．What des the underlined wrd “backfires” mean in Paragraphs?
A. 产生事与愿违的后果
B. 产生心想事成的效果
C. 产生雪上加霜的结果
28．The underlined phrase “this thing” in Paragraph 4 means ________.
A. making a mistakeB. running a businessC. sharing his achievement
29．Why des the writer use Jack Ma as an example?
A. T admire Jack Ma’s successful business.
B. T shw humblebragging is cmmnly seen in daily life.
C. T help peple learn hw t make small business bigger.
30．What des the passage mainly want t tell us?
A. Mre and mre peple shuld be encuraged t humblebrag.
B. It is cnsidered a bad idea t shw ff yur wn advantages.
C. We shuld admit ur achievements in an hnest way.
D
I ften feel I’m blunt (说话生硬的) when speaking Chinese. “Bu ya,” “Mei yu,” “Bu ke yi” — all these expressins are cmmnly used t turn dwn ffers in Chinese. Each time I use them, I fight with my desire (渴望) t use them with a few plite expressins like “Thank yu,” “Excuse me” r “I’m srry.”
Hwever, it seems Chinese peple d nt cnsider bluntness implite. Here is a familiar scene frm my everyday life. A crwded subway train is abut t pull ut. Just befre the dr is clsed, a passenger pushes against thers and shuts “Off the train!” There was n “Excuse me” r “Srry” t be heard. Amng gd friends, the grammar f pliteness is almst the same. At a Chinese restaurant, a friend f mine cries “Give me the salt!” instead f saying “Culd yu give me the salt? Thanks.” After many years f training children in western table manners, I always want t remind him r her t add, “Please!”
My Chinese friends tld me that they nticed westerners frequently (频繁地) use “Please” and “Thank yu” when speaking Chinese. In fact, we use them much mre than they imagined. A Chinese language teacher, Zhang Kaidi, says that in China, using “please” smetimes has the ppsite effect (效果) f pliteness. It adds a kind f space that says we need sme frmality (拘谨) between us.
My Chinese teacher Danny ndded his head when I asked him abut this explanatin. “Gd friends are clse. They are a part f yu,” Danny said. “Why wuld yu say ‘Please’ r ‘Thank yu t yurself? It desn’t make sense.”
The first Chinese term that westerners usually learn is “Ni ha.” The secnd is prbably “Xie xie.” Perhaps mre westerners shuld be taught abut hw the use f “Xie xie” really sunds t Chinese ears!
31. Hw des the writer feel when refusing ffers in Chinese?
A. Uneasy. B. Prud. C. Cmfrtable.
32. What des the writer mean t d in paragraph 2?
A. Present an pinin. B. Offer sme advice. C. Make a cnclusin.
33. What can we infer abut using “please” frm Zhang Kaidi?
A. It can express respect.
B. It can imprve relatinship.
C. It can cause misunderstanding.
34. What did Danny think f Zhang’s explanatin?
A. Unreasnable. B. Acceptable. C. Unbelievable.
35. What des the text mainly discuss abut “Thank Yu” and “Please”?
A. What they stand fr in China.
B. Hw they sund t Chinese ears.
C. Why they are ften used by westerners.

Where d yu rank (排名) in yur class? Are yu at the tp, in the middle, r at the bttm? Teachers and schls shuld nt rank students. 36. __________________ Every student knws where he r she stands in relatin t ther students. Like it r nt, there is cmpetitin in the classrm.

39. __________________ They were nly trying t mtivate (激励) their students t perfrm better. But this kind f mtivatin can als be harmful. It can divide the class and put unnecessary stress (压力) n students.
