A short guide to surviving a post-election Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving in the US is a celebration of the blessings of the previous year. This time it included one of the most divisive presidential campaigns. Even now it is over, the possibility of argument has not disappeared. Here we have some tips for you to survive this Thanksgiving.

●Cover up any signal of union

It might be fine to have your Hillary bumper sticker in New York, but it isn't going to go down well in Wyoming, where 70% voted Trump. Similarly, your "I love Trump" T-shirt will probably not be popular in California, where 62% voted Hillary.【1】．

●Practice your facial expression beforehand

They say a picture tells 1,000 words. Your face is the same. 【2】You need to invest some energy in making sure your true feelings are completely buried. Ten minutes in front of the mirror should be enough to perfect your neutral face. 【3】Well, we suggest closing them. Easy.

●Have a list of neutral topics for the dinner table

The weather is A favorite subject of the British. It is inoffensive, bland and can provide a good half-hour's chat, if done well. Everyone has an opinion on whether or not it is colder/hotter/wetter/windier than last year/10 years ago/when they were little. You can involve the whole family.【4】With Clinton and Trump supporters largely split on whether climate change exists, it could inadvertently lead to politics. So it's maybe trickier for Americans than the weather-worn Brits. 【5】After all, the rivalry between your American football team of choice and your cousin's may have a long and vitriolic history, but it is likely to be less poisonous than the current differences in your politics.

A. Sports may not be a neutral subject.

B. Biting your lip is simply not enough this holiday season.

C. There are hundreds of outstanding topics for Thanksgiving.

D. There is one slight downfall to this particular favorite.

E. Are you one of those people whose eyes always tell the truth?

F. So we advise leaving the T-shirt at home, and covering up the stickers.

G. It would be fine, if people of different opinions would not spend Thanksgiving together.

练习册系列答案

While on the road, the car constantly monitors the driver’s mood with pulse and sweat sensors on the joystick(操纵杆). Cameras focused on the eyes keep watch for any sigh of drowsiness. If a driver appears to be losing his or her cool, Pod will display warnings, play soft music and blow cold air at the face. Drivers are shaken awake with loud music and a shaking chair.

To improve driving skills, pod compares acceleration, braking and steering with the best performance recorded by professionals. It uses this comparison to score drivers, offer advice and rank all Pod owners. Toyota claims that the car will eventually be able to learn its owner’s likes and dislikes by monitoring passenger conversations. If the car hears a favorite song being discussed, it will download the track from the Internet and play it without being asked. It will also recommend restaurants that might suit the driver’s taste and take photographs of passengers when they sound particularly happy.

In keep with the moodiness that is the car’s main selling point, Pod expresses a form of road anger. If a driver brakes or swerves(转向) suddenly, the LED panel shows an angry red and the tail rises at the back.

Anger is one of the car’s ten “emotional states”. Another is sadness --- a blue front with tear-shaped lights seemingly dropping from headlights --- which appears after a flat tire or when gas is low.

“We wanted to show that the cars can be cheerful and entertaining,” said Yasunori Sakamoto, part of the Toyota design team. Mr Sakamoto said Toyota has no plans to put Pod on the market. Sad, really.

【1】The underlined word “drowsiness” in Paragraph 2 means _________.

A. fear B. boredom

C. excitement D. sleepiness

【2】According to the text, Pod can ___________.

A. rank the restaurant nearby B. test the driver’s driving skills

C. have a conversation with drivers D. recommend a song to passenger

【3】If the new concept vehicle is running out of gas, __________.

A. the Led panel turns red

B. the tail rises at the back of the car

C. the front light turn blue and look like tears

D. the car stops and shake with loud music

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards Pod?

A. Supportive. B. Doubtful.

C. Pessimistic. D. Tolerant.

【题目】We all know the hard work that filmmakers and actors put in to provide us with entertainment, but it seems that even regular moviegoers like us have a big impact on how a movie turns out too. For decades now, film studios have used so-called test screenings (试映) to get feedback from members of the public before a movie comes out.

While test audience members are usually asked to fill in a questionnaire after a screening, telling the film studio what they liked and didn’t like, media giant Disney has come up with a more high-tech solution.

According to a paper published this summer by the company’s researchers, Disney is measuring test audiences’ reactions (反应) by using special cameras placed inside cinemas. Pairing the cameras with custom (定制的) software, the company can track what each audience member is feeling at any point in the movie, from anger to joy. This works by mapping 68 different points on each audience member’s face. The cameras can see in the dark, and the software can figure out a person’s mood based on the slightest of facial expressions.

It is hoped that this new method will allow more detailed feedback from test audiences. Rather than relying on audience members to recall their feelings after the movie’s over, it can accurately read their reactions in real-time.

Test screenings are highly valued in the movie industry, and several well- known movies have been greatly altered following feedback. Viewers of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982) would have left the cinema feeling a whole lot differently if it weren’t for its test audience’s feedback.

“In one cut of the film that was tested, E.T. died instead of going home in his spaceship. You won’t be surprised to hear that the test audience in question didn’t warm to this ending at all,” wrote media website Den of Geek.

But for those of us who are concerned about privacy, the cameras won’t be installed in public cinemas. After all, unless you’re part of a test audience, being in front of the cam era is best left to the movie stars.

【1】What is the main advantage that the cameras have over questionnaires?

A. They protect the audience’s privacy better.

B. They allow the audience to recall their feelings more easily.

C. They are able to record the audience’s mood accurately on the spot.

D. They can help audience members adjust their mood with custom software.

【2】With the example of E.T. the extra-Terrestrial (1982), the author intends to .

A. show the significance of test screenings

B. emphasize the importance of altering a movie

C. show what kind of endings are better received by viewers

D. explain what kind of feedback could be accepted in test screenings

【3】What does the underlined word “alter” mean?

A. prefer B. change

C. predict D. adopt

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards the cameras Disney researchers are using?

A. Positive B. Indifferent

C. Negative D. Neutral

In the village where I grew up, everyone knew an old man, who lived a simply life and spent all his time painting. The villagers used to admiring his works and he often gave his paintings to his friends. Whenever he was offered money, he would not take them. He said he painted for a pleasure. He once gave one of his paintings to my father, whom actually wasn’t interested in art. Years later I found it in our old house. By that time the old man has died and people started to recognize his paintings as great works of art, which was worth lots of money. An art gallery made me an offer of $5,000 for this painting and I nearly sold it, so then I decided not to. It always reminds me my childhood and of the old man who didn’t really want to make money by paint.

【题目】Octopuses (章鱼) are sea animals famous for their rounded bodies, bulging eyes, and eight long arms. They live in all the world’s oceans but there are especially more octopuses in warm, tropical (热带的) waters. Octopuses, like their cousin, the squid (乌贼), are often considered “monsters of the deep”, though some species, or types, occupy relatively shallow waters.

Most octopuses stay along the ocean’s floor, although some species are pelagic, which means they live near the water’s surface. Other octopus species live in deep, dark waters, rising from below at dawn and dusk to search for food. Crabs and shrimps rank among their favorite foods, though some can attack larger prey (猎物), like sharks. Octopuses typically drop down on their prey from above and, using powerful suctions that line their arms, pull the animals into their mouths. The octopus performs its famous backward swim by blowing up water through a muscular tube on the body called a siphon. Octopuses also crawl (爬) along the ocean’s floor, putting their arms into small openings to search for food Seals, whales, and large fish prey on octopuses.

If threatened, octopuses shoot an inky liquid that darkens the water, confusing the other animals. The octopus can also change to gray, brown, pink, blue, or green to mix with its surroundings. Octopuses may also change color as a way to communicate with other octopuses. Octopuses are solitary creatures that live alone in dens (巢穴) built from rocks, which the octopus moves into place using its powerful arms. Octopuses sometimes even fashion a rock “door” for their dens that pull closed when the octopus is safely inside.

【1】【1】In which place can we find more Octopuses?

A. The ocean near Hainan. B. The river near Canada.

C. The Arctic Ocean. D. The South Pole.

【2】【2】What is a way for Octopuses to communicate with each other?

A. Using special signals. B. Making special sounds.

C. Living together in a group. D. Changing their own colors.

【3】【3】What do we know about Octopuses?

A. They just stay in deep ocean.

B. They eat food by using their teeth.

C. They don’t like hunting large animals.

D. They shoot an inky liquid to avoid dangers.

【题目】I was walking with a friend yesterday 【1】 I found a cellphone in a pile of snow. I picked 【2】 up and it still worked! I started looking through the name list and dialing numbers to see whether I could figure out whose phone it was. 【3】 (luck), only one person answered and she didn't recognize the number.

Since that lady didn't know whose phone it was, my friend suggested that we go back to 【4】 house that we found the cellphone in front of. I knocked on the door and two collegeage persons answered. They 【5】 (lose) their phones, but as I told them the story and mentioned some 【6】 on the name list, the young man said that he also had those names and it 【7】 be the phone of their friends. I really didn't have anything to say, because in my mind I was just doing the right thing. I 【8】 (immediate) tried to find the owner, because that is exactly 【9】 I would want someone to do if either I or any of my family members lost phones. The purpose of helping others is not for return. 【10】 (help) others is more than enough for me and it is the most endless joy of life.

My friend Tony and I always walk home together after school. Last Friday on our way to home, we heard a loud shout behind us. When we looked around to see what had happened, we found a woman lied on the ground, bleeding. We soon realized that she had knocked down by the car in front of him. We hurried to help her, and a man came over and tried to prevent us from getting closer to the wounded woman. We got very angrily with the man. How could he stopped us from helping a dying woman? The man asked us to turn around and we were surprised to see a man who were carrying a video camera on his shoulders. In fact, they were just shooting a film!

How an interesting experience!
