Stand in front of a mirror and look at it. How much do you really know about the person in it
It's not an easy job to know ourselves. To help students do this important task, schools across China are providing more classes and activities on self---knowledge.
Liu Yue;a teacher from a Middle School,has recently given her students a useful tool.“It's called the Johari Window, developed by two US psychologists," said Liu. “It has four areas about one's self: open area , hidden area, blind spot and unknown area. Using this tool, students did a good job seeing themselves through a new lens(透镜)."
"I really want to know more about my blind spot," said Yang Manfei. "So I did a survey with my friends." The results showed that she easily gets anxious and impatient because of procrastination(拖延). “ That's a bad habit I've never realized!" Yang said.
"I find the unknown area most amazing," said Sun Boyin. “It means everyone has lots of potential . " When Sun entered middle school, he was not good at math. “But I set a goal and did lots of math exercises.Now I'm much better at math.The unknown part of my math ability is getting clearer!" Sun said.
When it came to the hidden area, most students kept silent. “I'm scared to show my secrets deep down," said Li Yixuan. “Then one classmate stood up and said his favorite cartoon is Tom and Jerry. I thought: Am I brave enough to show my childish hobby Perhaps not. I want my classmates to see me as a mature(成熟的) person, not a silly kid.But then I realized that I don't find that classmate silly. I think he has the courage to be himself.'
24. What is the area that both you and people around you know about
A. Open area. B. Blind spot. C. Unknown area. D. Hidden area.
25. How did Yang Manfei feel before knowing the result of her survey

D. He collected advice about it from others.
26.What does Li Yixuan say about the hidden area

Do you have full confidence in your memory There has been a discussion about whether it is shi or si in the sentence “Thus when Heaven is about to confer a great office on any man..." (“故天将降大任于是/斯人也"). Most people chose si as what they learned at school. However, People's Education Press, a leading publisher of Chinese textbooks,claimed on Oct 26 that all its textbooks say shi.
Supporters of si feel shocked and say they've experienced the “Mandela Effect" - the situation in which a large number of people believe that an event occurred when it didn't.Many people believed that former South African president Nelson Mandel died in the1980s in prison. However, Mandela was alive and well, eventually passing away in 2013.US researcher Fiona Broome set up a website to explain her observation of this phenomenon first, coining the term.
Some often joke that our memories have been changed by a strange force. In fact,psychologists have looked into the reasons for the Mandela Effect, as reported on the US-based website Verywell Mind. For example, your mind may fill in gaps missing in your memory to make more sense of it, which is called confabulation(虚构症). However, try not to feel bad - this is not lying, but rather remembering details that never happened.
The Internet may be another reason why we have Mandela Effect events, as the news we read can be false from the beginning. In 2018, Science journal published a study of over100,000 news stories discussed across Twitter. It showed that false news can spread faster and reach more people than the truth. As a powerful way to spread information, the Internet might be the main reason for falsehoods to enter our minds.
What's the author's purpose of telling the saying "Thus when Heaven is …"
A. To show our memories can be wrong.
B. To provide solutions to the discussion.
C. To raise readers' interest in the discussion.
D. To introduce the topic of the Mandela Effect
Which can replace the underlined word coining in Paragraph 3
Creating B.Misunderstanding. C. Forgetting. D. Changing.
30. What is the “Mandela Effect" about
A. Attitudes to a particular event.
B. A kind of psychological effect.
C. The benefit of good memory.
D. The effect of Mandela's death.
31.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. False news travels much faster than true stories.
B. The Internet can also cause Mandela Effect events.
C. It is harder than ever to read false news at present.
D. The Internet can make false information avoidable.
D
In English it's common to say, “I know this town like the back of my hand!" While we may know our towns really well, how well do we actually know our hands Maybe not quite as well as we think, said a scientific study.
Matthew Longo and his team from University College London studied the left hands of100 people. With their hands placed palms down under a board, Longo's team gave the instruction to point to their knuckles(关节) and fingertips with a marker. How did they do Not that well.
"People think their hand is wider than it actually is," said Longo. He said they also seemed to think their fingers were shorter than their true lengths. People were most accurate(准确的) when finding their thumbs, but became less accurate with each finger, up to their pinkies(小指).
“It is connected to our sense of position," explained Longo. Humans know where different parts of our bodies are, even if we can't see them. “It tells us whether a joint(关节) is straight or not," said Longo. “We also need to know the distances between our joints," he went on. Our brains know the sizes and shapes of our bodies from the maps they make for themselves. “This experiment tried to find those maps," he said.
Maybe maps don't need to be perfect. But why aren't our brains more accurate Longo said our brains “see" areas based on our sense of touch, with the stronger the sense of touch in a specific body part, the bigger that body part seems. An example is our lips. As they have more nerves(神经) than our noses, our brain's map shows our lips are bigger. The same thing can happen with body parts that have a lot of nerves. If you've ever had something stuck in your teeth, it probably felt huge! That's because our tongues also have lots of nerves.
What did Matthew Longo and his team find from their study
Their left hands are much wider than their right hands.
B. The length of all fingers can be marked accurately.
C. People don't know their hands as well as they think.
D. People did best pointing at the position of knuckles.
Why do our lips seem bigger than our noses
Our lips have a more important function than our noses.
B. There are more nerves in our noses than in our lips.
C. Our mental map must prefer the lip to the nose.
D. Our sense of touch in our lips is much stronger.
What conclusion can we draw about the experiment
People don't care about something around us at all.
B. Our hometown is to us what hands are to our body.
C. Our bodies can be different from how we imagine them.
D.People lose their sense of position if they can't see.
35.Which is the best title for the text
A. Protect Our Bodies B. Explore Our Bodies
C. The Back of Our Hand D. Perfect Parts of Our Bodies
