22、Facial expressions are the main way people show their feelings and read the feelings of others. Happiness, sadness, disgust, fear and surprise can be communicated through facial expressions alone. However, because of the novel coronavirus (冠状病毒), people have to wear masks to keep them safe. When people wear masks, it becomes more difficult to read their feelings.

If you cannot read someone else’s feeling, you may have difficulty communicating with them. Wearing a mask can also make you feel more distracted (心烦意乱) and uncomfortable, making your relationship with others worse.

Luckily, you can change this situation by working with what you have left—the eyes. If you want to increase understanding with a person who wears a mask, you should look them in the eyes, which may be easier said than done. Eye contact may make people become uncomfortable after only three seconds. But it can also make you appear smarter and more honest.

You might be surprised how much information is showed by the body itself. For example, when someone is happy, they stand up straighter and lift their head; when they are sad, they drop their head; and when they are angry, their whole body tenses up (紧张). Learning how people use their bodies to show feelings may help you communicate with someone in a mask.

Pay attention to your own body language too. In a conversation, if you turn your body toward the speaker, leaning in (前倾) or nodding, the speaker may think you are listening carefully. To let another person know you want to start speaking, keep your back straight, hold up your index finger (食指) or nod more often.

Don’t forget the effect of your voice. It’s not just what you say, it’s how you say it. For example, a very low voice may mean sadness, while a loud shout could show anger. If you feel the need to speak louder, just be aware that raising your voice can change the message you are trying to send. So instead of speaking louder, try speaking more clearly.

All in all, continue to wear a mask to keep yourself safe, but don’t give up your communication with others.

【1】Wearing masks can ______.

A．help people communicate more easily

B．help people read others’ feelings

C．make people feel relaxed and comfortable

D．help keep novel coronavirus away

【2】What is NOT true about eye contact according to the passage?

A．Eye contact can help you understand more about a person.

B．Eye contact with only two seconds may make people uncomfortable.

C．Eye contact makes people appear smarter and more honest.

D．Eye contact for too long is not a good idea.

【3】If you want to start talking, you can ______.

A．turn your body toward the speaker

B．make eye contact

C．keep your back straight

D．drop your head

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A．When someone is angry, his or her body may keep straight.

B．If a person is sad, he or she will speak loudly.

C．Raising your voice may not change the meaning of your words.

D．Speaking clearly in a conversation (谈话) is very important.

23、It's very common to see lightning storms(雷雨) in summer. Some people don't take them carefully. In fact, lightning storms are very dangerous for people, and they can even kill people.

So how do we keep safe during a lightning storm?

If you are indoors, stay away from windows and doors during a lightning storm. Don't take a shower or do the dishes because lightning can travel through water. Turn off the TV and computer.

If you are outdoors during a lightning storm, never take shelter(庇护) under a tree because the lightning could hit the tree and travel through the tree to hit you. Stay away from anything that is metal(金属). Try to get in your car and close all the windows, or go into a nearby building right away. If there's no building around, try to find a low place to stay in. Squat(蹬) down near the ground and put your hands over your ears. Never use a cellphone.

There’s a saying in the UK and USA that “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day”, and for lots of people in the West, this is quite true!

The “full English” breakfast is famous around the world. It’s a very 【1】 meal, but not a very healthy one if you eat it every day.

Bacon and eggs are always in them, and then all kinds of 【2】 fried food are added. This could include sausages, tomatoes, mushrooms or fried bread. In some parts of the UK, black pudding（血肠）is in a full English breakfast. Black pudding 【3】 like a dessert, but in fact it is dried blood mixed up with fat or another thickener（增稠剂）, rolled into a big sausage!

The full English breakfast is popular, but in fact British people eat all kinds of things when they 【4】 in the morning. Cooking up bacon, eggs and sausages can 【5】 a long while, and most people don’t have enough time to do that every day. It leaves 【6】 lots of greasing（油腻的）washing up to do too.
