During ne call, Dad said, “Tday at wrk, ne f my c-wrkers was wearing a T-shirt with a screen-printed picture f the same leaf as my mysterius huseplants. I tld him that I had thse same herbs, which were grwing like weeds, and I had t get rid f them.” Dad cntinued, “He eagerly tk them ff my hands, and nw I can see ut the windw again.”

In Japan, yu are what yur bld type is. A persn’s bld type is ppularly believed t decide his/her character and persnality. Type-A peple are generally cnsidered sensitive perfectinists and gd team players, but ver-anxius. Type-Os are curius and generus but stubbrn. Type-ABs are artistic but mysterius and unpredictable, and type-Bs are cheerful but eccentric（古怪的）, individualistic, and selfish. Thugh lacking scientific evidence, this belief is widely seen in bks, magazines, and televisin shws. Last year, fur f Japan’s tp 10 bestsellers were abut hw bld type determines persnality, thrugh which readers seemed t be able t discver the definitin f their bld type r have their self-image cnfirmed.
The bld-type belief has been used in unusual ways. The wmen sftball team that wn gld fr Japan at the Beijing Olympics is reprted t have used bld-type theries t custmize training fr each player. Sme kindergartens have adpted teaching methds alng bld grup lines, and even majr cmpanies reprtedly make decisins abut assignments based n an emplyee’s bld type. In 1990, Mitsubishi Electrnics was reprted t have annunced the frmatin f a team cmpsed entirely f AB wrkers, thanks t “their ability t make plans”.
The belief even affects plitics. One frmer prime minister cnsidered it imprtant enugh t reveal in his fficial prfile that he was a type A, while his ppsitin rival was type B. In 2011, a minister, Ryu Matsumt, was frced t resign after nly a week in ffice, when a bad-tempered encunter with lcal fficials was televised. In his resignatin speech, he blamed his failings n the fact that he was bld type B.
The bld-type craze, cnsidered simply harmless fun by sme Japanese, may reveal itself as prejudice and discriminatin. In fact, this seems s cmmn that the Japanese nw have a term fr it: bura-hara, meaning bld-type harassment (骚扰). There are reprts f discriminatin leading t children being bullied, ending f happy relatinships, and lss f jb pprtunities due t bld type.
28. What’s the main idea f paragraph 1?
A. The Japanese attach great imprtance t bld type.
B. The bks abut bld type are ppular in Japan.
C. The Japanese cnfirm their persnality ttally thrugh bld type.
D. The Japanese think bld type bestsellers are imprtant t their self-image.
29. Accrding t the passage, which bld type can we infer is the LEAST favred in Japan?
A. Type A. B. Type B. C. Type O. D. Type AB.
30. Prime Minister Ryu Matsumt resigned frm ffice because ________.
A. he revealed his rival’s bld type B. he was seen behaving rudely n TV
C. he blamed his failings n lcal fficials D. he was discriminated against because f bld type
31. What is the speaker’s attitude tward the bld-type belief in Japan?
A. Negative. B. Defensive. C. Objective.D. Encuraging.

We are living in an age in which data is strngly favred, especially when it’s reprted in the media. “Big Data” is cnsidered even mre reliable as it cnsists f very large amunts f infrmatin. statistics are cnsidered strng evidence, even if the cnclusins drawn frm the data dn’t mean a whle lt. Fr example, “40 percent f adults say they use Instagram and abut three in ten reprt using Pinterest r LinkedIn,” a Research Center survey reprted in April 2021. Is that a lt r a little? I dn’t knw, but the numbers are seemingly presented as being significant in sme way.
Meanwhile, unless an argument is “data-based”, it is cnsidered flimsy. One might repeatedly see smething with his/her wn eyes, but irnically (讽刺地), in this era f data, it matters little. Observatins and any cnclusins drawn, even by experts in a relevant field, have been dwngraded t “persnal perspectives”, even thugh they are based n real, dcumented behavir.
In shrt, if smething is published in a jurnal with quantitative (量化的)supprt, it carries much weight. If a cultural expert with a Ph.D reprts a particular trend frm field research, hwever, it is cnsidered a shrt amusing stry that may help make up the “real” data-based studies. Peple want t knw the “sample size” f cultural research, nt understanding that valuable insights int human behavir can be gained withut metrics (度量学) and analytics.
The many weaknesses assciated with quantitative research shuld nt be ignred, either. There are numerus ways t design a study and gather findings, each ne likely t prduce different results. The mve t nline research has made findings much mre questinable, as nthing gt frm the Internet shuld be taken t seriusly. Besides, hw questins are bth asked and answered is highly subjective and dependent n many variables(变量).
Why d we lve data s much? Wrds are imprecise and have multiple meanings, while numbers are precise and definitive, a big reasn why we put s much faith and trust in data regardless f its surce. T legitimize (证明……有理) this pst, nte that 88.6 percent f what I’ve said is true.
32. What des the authr think f the 2021 survey reprted by the Pew Research Center?
A. It leads t sme cnfusin. B. It has much scientific value.
C. It impresses him with the numbers. D. It cntains sme false infrmatin.
33. What des the underlined wrd “flimsy” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Prfessinal. B. Interesting. C. Unfriendly. D. Unpersuasive.
34. What is the last but ne paragraph mainly abut?
A. The practicality f nline research. B. The disadvantages f quantitative research.
C. The widespread ppularity f nline research. D. The significance f quantitative research findings.
35. Hw des the authr end the text?
A. By writing irnically. B. By referring t experts.
C. By prviding a slutin. D. By making a predictin.

Maybe there is a Father Christmas!
