21、

Once there was a famine（饥荒）in the town. A rich and kind baker（面包师）sent some bread to twenty of the poorest children. He said to them,“In this basket,there is some bread for you. Each of you can have one loaf（一条面包）every day until the hard days end. ”

The impatient children couldn't wait to gather around the basket. They shouted and fought for the bread because each wished to have the largest loaf. At last they went away without even thanking the good gentleman. But Shirley, a poorly-dressed little girl, did not join them. Instead, she remained standing modestly in the distance. When the other children left, she took the smallest loaf left in the basket, kissed the gentleman's hand and went home.

The next day the children were as rude as before. Poor shy Shirley still took the smallest loaf. When she got home, her mother cut the bread open. Many new shining pieces of silver fell out of it. Her mother was very surprised and said,

"Take the money back to the good gentleman at once, for it must have got into the loaf by accident. Be quick, Shirley！Be quick！"

But when the little girl gave the rich man her mother's message,he said,“No, no, my child. It was no mistake. I put silver into the smallest loaf to reward you because you are a kind and honest girl. Go home, and the money is yours now. ”

22、   Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation (感觉)of warmth encourages emotional (情感的) warmth, while a cold drink in hand stops you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.

Psychologists have known that one person’s feeling of another’s “warmth” is a powerful determiner (决定因素) in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ understanding of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.

Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those feelings influence judgment in dozens of countries.

To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh did an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form. The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate (评估) the personality of the assistant . Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded the assistant as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.

“We based on our physical experiences even when we think abstractly (抽象地).” says Bargh.

【1】According to Paragraph 1, a person’s emotion may be affected by ______.

A. the visitors to his office B. the psychology lessons he has

C. the things he has bought online D. his physical feeling of coldness

【2】The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that ______.

A. adults should develop social skills B. caregivers should be healthy adult

C. babies need warm physical contacts D. monkeys have social relationships

【3】We can infer from the passage that ______.

A. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences

B. physical temperature affects how we see others

C. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide

D. capable persons are often cold to others

【4】What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Drinking for Better Social Relationships.

B. Physical Sensations and Emotions.

C. Developing Better Drinking Habits.

D. Experiments of Rating the Personality.

23、   A few years ago, my husband and I were on an island for a long week with our two little daughters. As we talked about what to do next, our daughters jumped in and told us exactly what they wanted to do. We agreed. As soon as we walked into the main area of the butterfly museum, we saw thousands of beautiful butterflies. They all flew with their colorful wings. My girls were jumping up and down, and I knew we had made the right decision to come to the museum. They were having so much fun. I turned to our guide and asked curiously (好奇地),"How long do butterflies live?" She said, "About ten days". "What can butterflies do in ten days?" The guide stopped, looked at me, and said, "They make the world a more beautiful place."

After we said goodbye, I couldn't stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have something to offer the world with the time we have. If we spend the time doing what we can for others, we all can make the world a better place.

24、A sudden illness completely changed our lives. During the fight against COVID-19, doctors and nurses tried their best to save more sick people and became heroes and heroines. At the same time, many common people brought warm stories to us.

On January 27, the fifth day after the city of Wuhan was closed off, a man got to a small town called Fengdie in Zhouqu, Gansu, giving away 2,000 of his face masks（口罩）to the local government. “My wife and I have kept these face masks for some days,” the man named Liu Junchao said. “I know our country is in great need of face masks now, so I’m coming here.” Liu makes a living by running a small store. He could have made much money by selling those face masks, but he volunteered to do something meaningful.

What could a small girl do at that time? A 10-year-old girl has given us an answer. On February 1, the girl named Xie Lanyi from Yangzhou, Jiangsu, gave away all her pocket money, 495 yuan, to the local police station. The money was in a piggy bank（储蓄罐）, with a note saying “Come on, Wuhan!” The girl could have used the pocket money to buy her favorite things, but she didn’t.
