They included English, Italian, Plish, Russian and La, as well as _____17_____ languages such as Cha’ palaa, spken in Ecuadr, Murrinh-Patha, spken in nrthern Australia, and Siwu, spken in Ghana. Bth verbal and nn-verbal expressins f gratitude, such as a smile r a nd, were regarded as interactins.
Flyd’s team left cameras in husehld and cmmunity settings and captured mre than 1,500 _____18_____ f scial interactins in which ne persn asked fr smething and anther _____19_____.
They fund that in every culture, peple fulfilled requests, but expressins f gratitude, such as saying “thanks” r ndding in _____20_____, were remarkably rare, ccurring just 5.5 percent f the time.

Give Slar the Green Light
Are fields full f slar panels (太阳能电池板) a bad thing fr England’s green and pleasant land? Sme figures at the tp f the UK gvernment certainly think s.
“I think ne f the mst _____26_____ sights when yu’re driving thrugh England is seeing fields that shuld be full f crps r livestck full f slar panels,” said Liz Truss, then UK prime minister, in August. “_____27_____ lands … shuld be used fr fd prductin.”
This is an issue in many ther cuntries t. China, _____28_____, is reprtedly cnsidering a ban (禁令) n _____29_____ n farmland and in frests. In England, existing rules already _____30_____ slar farms n the mst prductive agricultural land. Nevertheless, the UK gvernment was reprtedly planning t effectively ban them n mst English farmland.
With Rishi Sunak, wh has previusly criticized slar farms n farmland, nw having replaced Truss, it is unclear whether the UK gvernment will _____31_____ the ban natinwide as planned, but _____32_____ f slar n farmland must knw three things.
First, a lt f fd is being turned int bifuels — even thugh fd-based bifuels increase greenhuse emissins, harm bidiversity and _____33_____ fd prices.
Secnd, plants aren’t great at _____34_____ slar energy. Crps typically turn less than 1 per cent f the slar energy that hits them int useable bifuel, whereas slar panels ______35______ abut 20 per cent f light energy int electricity.
Third, farming is very plluting, ______36______ a third f glbal greenhuse gas emissins as well as many ther pllutants. In the UK in 2020, 121,000 hectares were used t grw crps fr prducing heat, electricity r bifuels ______37______ fd. That is five times as much as the 23,000 hectares cvered by grund-munted slar.
T see which is a better use f land, let’s ______38______ what we get frm slar panels and bifuels. Per year, a hectare f wheat can prduce enugh biethanl (生物乙醚) fr a car t drive arund 23,000 kilmetres, Simn Evans at the climate site Carbn Brief has calculated. A hectare f slar, by cntrast, can prduce enugh electricity in a ______39______ fr an electric car t drive 2,570,000 kilmetres. S a hectare f slar gets yu 50 t 110 times further — and with much less pllutin alng the way. This is why it makes n sense ______40______ r envirnmentally t ban slar n farms, while cntinuing t allw farms t grw fds and turn them int bifuels.

GROUND YOURSELF
Making cntact with the grund is yur baseline g-t respnse fr stress. This technique can be especially helpful if yu find yur stress regularly turns int panic. Wherever yu are, whatever yu’re ding, place yur feet flat n the grund s that yu feel stable, and then clse yur eyes. If yu’re able t sit n the flr crss-legged r t lie dwn flat, then even better.
Think f this as earthing: really cnnect with the grund beneath yur bdy.

Abandn all yur thughts and try t fcus nly n yur surrundings. What can yu see, hear, smell, taste and tuch? Identify three things yu can hear, ne thing yu can taste, fur things yu can see and tw things yu can feel n yur skin. Pick ut clurs in the rm yu are sitting in, ntice textures and different kinds f light. If smebdy is with yu, tell them what yu are experiencing. The pint here is that yur senses are yur best and easiest rute back t feeling calm, by cming ut f yur head and rting yurself back in the present.

As is the fate f anyne running a htel in Kerala these days, Bijy Gerge is a man with t much t d. Befre pandemic-caused lckdwns began in 2020, he managed 40 emplyees at the Eighth Bastin Htel in the charming histric quarter f Kchi, a bustling castal city. Nw that business is back t pre-cvid levels he needs the same number f staff again. But he has nly 20 wrkers. His plight is shared with every ther htel, café and bar. It is a result f the state’s hspitality (招待) emplyees mving all tgether in large numbers t Qatar, nt t watch ftball but t take up emplyment tied t the Wrld Cup.
As the start f the cmpetitin appraches n Nvember 20th, wrkers are quitting at a rate Mr. Gerge says he has never seen in his 22 years in the business. Qatar, a cuntry with a ppulatin f under 3m, will have welcmed mre than 1.5m visitrs befre the matches cnclude n December 18th. That means finding staff t run all the new htels that have been built alng with ther venues that have been pressed int service t prfit frm the sprts fans.
Kerala has lng been a significant surce f hspitality wrkers fr Qatar and ther Middle Eastern cuntries. Its state gvernment prvides gd schls with English-language instructin but few jbs. Mre than 2m peple, 17% f its wrking ppulatin, already wrk verseas, largely in the Gulf.
The appeal f Qatar is straightfrward. Starting salaries apprach $1,000 a mnth, mre than six times the level fr similar jbs in Kerala. T replace thse wh have left, Kerala’s emplyers have been casting their nets wider. Recruiters have been extending their searches t many ther Indian cities. But that means the mst cmmn wrd n name-tags pinned t the breast pckets f wrkers is “trainee”.
Amng the many skills that need t be taught, says Mr. Gerge, is smiling at custmers — the failure t d s a result f shyness amng thse new t the wrkfrce. The danger is that after a week r s when cnfidence grws, even these emplyees may slip away t the Gulf.
Mst cntracts run fr three mnths, cncluding at the end f December, nt lng after the Wrld Cup final. Returning wrkers will be welcmed back with pen arms. Filling the gaps is even mre imprtant as Indian turism and weddings have restarted. The reunins, thugh, may be shrt-lived. The game these wrkers will have learned frm the Wrld Cup is hw t be paid better. That means leaving India.
48. The underlined sentence in paragraph ne implies that __________.
A. ther htels, cafes and bars will share Bijy’s 20 emplyees
B. ther htels, cafes and bars will have t lay ff sme wrkers
C. ther htels, cafes and bars als send the wrkers t Qatar

C. Qatar prvides gd educatin and English training fr ptential wrkers in Kerala.
D. The salaries f similar jbs in Kerala are much lwer than thse in Qatar.
50. Which f the fllwing difficulties d Kerala’s emplyers face due t lack f wrkers?
A. Kerala’s emplyers have t take n new emplyees in Asian cities.
B. Many f the new emplyees will pin their name tags t their breast pckets.
C. The new emplyees will nt greet the custmers as a result f shyness.
D. The new emplyees may sn fllw the trend f ging t the Gulf.
51. What makes the reunins between Indian wrkers and emplyers prbably a shrt-lived ne?
A. Jbs utside India can prvide Indian wrkers with a mre decent life.
B. It will sn be the ff seasn fr Indian turism and weddings.
C. Anther grand ccasin will sn begin in the Gulf.
D. The wrkers nly sign shrt-term cntracts with the emplyers in India.

The Fur-day Wrk Week
If Liz Truss can reduce a whle premiership t seven weeks, why can’t a standard wrking week be squashed int smething shrter? A six-mnth pilt (试点) scheme, in which arund 3,300 wrkers frm 70 cmpanies are testing ut a fur-day wrkweek, is due t cnclude this mnth. _____52_____ Like previus such experiments, it is likely t be praised as a success. A mid-pint survey by the trial’s rganisers — researchers at the universities f Oxfrd and Cambridge and Bstn Cllege — fund that the transitin had wrked well fr 88% f surveyed cmpanies.
_____53_____ In particular a fur-day week frces firms t think harder abut time management. Mst businesses in the trial have encuraged emplyees t leave meetings when they are nt cntributing and t be mre selective abut accepting invitatins.
