21、For years, Jessica and Eric have lived down the street from their favorite sandwich shop. Despite its being so close to home, they preferred to dine in, and always tipped generously when they did. But, during the pandemic in 2020, the cafe temporarily closed, then reopened—for takeout orders only. So their new routine became to order online, go pick up their food, and eat it at home. 【1】

That is, until the day they drove up and a waitress ran out to meet them. “I was wondering if I’m doing something wrong, because you never leave a tip,” she said. Eric attempted to explain: “Because we aren’t being waited on, we didn’t think tipping was necessary.” 【2】 “She stormed off.” Jessica says.

The pandemic has been particularly hard on people working for tips. Some haven’t been able to do their jobs at all, while others don’t interact with customers the same way. 【3】 Meanwhile, many customers felt the need to tip more because of the new risks and hardships that essential service workers suddenly faced.

“【4】 We were tipping based on emotion, and that may not have had anything to do with the service. And that service also became harder to assess.” says Toni Dupree, a professional etiquette (礼仪) coach. Some old standards no longer seem fair, and several newer ones will apply long after the pandemic is over.

Next time, in Dupree’s view, you’re unsure whether a tip is in order, follow this simple rule: 【5】 The novelist George Eliot asked, “What do we live for if not to make the world less difficult for each other?” Dupree adds: “Tipping well is one way to make things easier for someone else.”

A．When in doubt, tip.

B．That made it worse.

C．It is service itself that counts.

D．Tipping never crossed their minds.

E．To enjoy good services, tipping is a must.

F．Just as many services have changed, so should tipping.

G．Tips dried up in either case, causing a lot of people to suffer.

24、What’s really green?

Most of us are aware that we must take care of the environment, and the majority of us take steps to save energy and reduce waste and pollution. But recently, some “green truths” have been shown to be only half true, or even completely false. 【1】

Paper shopping bags are better than plastic ones.

Plastic bags cause litter and are a danger to wild animals, which mistake them for food. It takes hundreds of years for plastic to break down, but much less time for paper. Because of this, people think paper bags are the better environmental choice.

However, making a paper bag uses four times as much energy as making a plastic bag and up to three times the amount of water. 【2】 In fact, both kinds of bags are bad for the environment. So, take a reusable bag with you when you go shopping.

【3】

It seems like common sense: eating local food should be better for the environment, because it does not need to be transported long distances and kept cold during transport. 【4】 It is the production of food, not its transport, that uses most of the energy and produces most of the greenhouse gases. In some cases, local produce might have used more energy and produced more greenhouse gases than produce grown a long way away-even taking into account its transport.

It’s better to take a shower than a bath.

【5】 If you spend more than eight minutes in a shower, you’ll use as much water as in a bath-about 50 litres of water. Therefore, the key is to keep your shower time as short as possible.

Environmental awareness is now part of daily life. But it’s worth checking common ideas and opinions to see what’s really green.

A．So say no to plastic bags.

B．Here are some common ones.

C．Unfortunately, it is not that simple.

D．Eating local food is good for the environment.

E．The process also produces more greenhouse gases.

F．It’s time that we took measures to protect our environment.

G．It depends on how long you spend in the shower and how large your bath is.

25、   When I re-entered the full-time workforce a few years ago after a decade of lonely self-employment, there was one thing I was looking forward to the most: the opportunity to have work friends once again. It wasn't until I entered the corporate world that I realized, for me at least, being friends with colleagues didn't emerge as a(n) _______ at all. This is surprising when you consider the prevailing emphasis by scholars and trainers and managers on the importance of cultivating close _______ relationships at work. So much research has explored the way in which collegial（同事的）ties can help overcome a range of workplace issues _______ productivity and the quality of work output such as team-based conflict, jealousy, undermining anger, and more.

Perhaps my expectations of lunches, water-cooler gossip and caring, deep-and-meaningful conversations were a _______ of the last time I was in that kind of office environment. Whereas now, as I near the end of my fourth decade, I realize work can be fully functional and entirely fulfilling without _______ to be best mates with the people sitting next to you.

In an academic analysis just published in the profoundly-respected Journal of Management, researchers have looked at the concept of "indifferent relationships", a simple term that summarizes the fact that relationships at work can _______ be non-interpersonal, inconsequential, unimportant and even, dare I say it, disposable or substitutable.

Indifferent relationships are neither positive nor negative. The limited research conducted thus far indicates they're especially _______ among those who value independence over cooperation, and harmony over confrontation. Indifference is also the _______ option among those who are socially lazy. Maintaining relationships over the long term takes effort, which, for some of us, is much too _______.

As noted above, indifferent relationships may not always be the most ________ approach in resolving some of the issues that pop up at work. But there are nevertheless several apparently proven benefits. One of those is ________. Less time chatting and socializing means more time working and churning(产出).

The other is ________. As human beings, we're programmed to compare ourselves to each other in what is an anxiety-causing phenomenon. Apparently, we look down on acquaintances(泛泛之交)more so than friends. Since the former is very common among those ________ to indifferent relationships, their predominance can promote individuals' sense of self-worth.

Ego aside, a third advantage is that the emotional ________ of indifferent relationships has been found to enhance critical evaluation, to strengthen one's focus on task resolution, and to gain greater access to valuable information. None of that might be as ________ as after-work socializing but, hey, I'll take it anyway.
