The covering veil of a Chinese bride is a piece of square-shaped red color silk which is usually decorated with designed peony or phoenix patterns. The meaning behind this tradition is that people believe a red covering veil can drive away the misfortune and also covers the nervous flushing face of the bride.
During the traditional Chinese wedding ceremony, the bride is handed by her groom. Her head should be covered by a red veil which is falling down to her shoulder for the whole ceremony. The covering veil is not taken off until all the relatives and friends have left. It is the g room who can take off her covering veil. Traditionally, the groom should take off her veil using a small steelyard (杆秤). Imagine the special and sweet moment when the groom takes the veil off and sees a blushing and excited face with the faint candle-light while they sit on the edge of the new bed. The bride’s covering veil is connected with the special occasion where the lovers are eager for their life.
In ancient China, the covering veil or gaitou was just a method to keep warm. It later turned into an accessory (配饰) for maids serving the emperor’s palace. Starting from the Yuan Dynasty, the bride covers her entire head with a piece of red cloth or gaitou to prevent herself from being seen by others on the wedding day, including the groom. This veil is only to be lifted up by the g room on the wedding night. For most of them in old China, it would be the first time they saw each other. The reason why the arm of the steelyard is used to lift the veil is that the Chinese character for this device also has the meaning of “satisfied” and thus, by using this device, the groom expresses that he would be completely satisfied with the look of the bride.
24．What is the meaning of the red covering veil in the wedding ceremony according to the custom
A．Getting rid of bad luck.
B．Attracting people’s curiosity about the bride.
C．Representing the bride’s loyalty to her family.
D．Adding a romantic atmosphere to the wedding.
25．What can we know about the traditional Chinese wedding ceremony according to the passage
A．The steelyard is used to measure the weight of the veil.
B．The bride’s red veil is removed by the groom using a steelyard.
C．In ancient China, the groom could see the bride’s face before the wedding.
D．Relatives and friends are present when the groom removes the bride’s veil.
26．Why would a steelyard be used to lift up the covering veil
A．It was deeply rooted in the palace. B．It reflected the groom’s expectation.
C．It stood for good luck and sweet life. D．It could be easily found in old times.
27．What could be the best title for the passage
A．Wedding Ceremonies in China’s History.
B．Things Used for a Traditional Chinese Wedding.
C．Wearing a Covering Veil on a Chinese Wedding.
D．Customs of Traditional Chinese Wedding Ceremonies.
As the new year approaches, crowds around the world may expect colorful fireworks to light up the sky with bright flashes and loud booms. However, the attraction of fireworks could fade away with the growing use of drones (无人机) for light shows.
Ollie Howitt, a leader of one of the world’s leading drone light show companies, which used a team of 300 drones to put on a display for London’s new year celebration last year, said that demand for drone shows had increased greatly. “We do believe these shows will gain wider popularity, instead of just being a short-lived kind of fashion. Drones are reusable and leave no harmful waste after use. In that sense, they become a good and eco-friendly choice,” she explained.
But not everyone agrees. A spokesperson from the British Fireworks Association warned that drones could also cause environmental problems. “Suggestions are that drones have less impact on the environment, but we have serious concerns about electrical demand and use of lithium batteries (锂电池) which are known not to be all that green,” they said.
An RSPCA spokesperson also mentioned that while drones were a possible idea to try to reduce the impact of displays on animals, there were problems. Drones are not without their own negative issues such as scaring horses or crashing into birds, and may bother animals and members of the public. Therefore, it’s important to carefully consider their possible effects and take proper measures to reduce the chance of accidents.
Some express the opinion that fireworks and drones don’t exclude each other. The sight, sound and gunpowder smell of fireworks will always provide its own unique thrill.
“We find fireworks work really well when teamed up with drones. But we don’t really see it as a one-replacing-the-other at all. We feel as if it’s just another tool for how you enliven the sky and what you want to do with the show you’re putting on,” said Howitt, noting that while fireworks give a loud, emotive and big performance, drones offer the chance to tell stories in the sky by using a series of images.
28．What does Howitt think a drone display in paragraph 2
A．It’s definitely an upward trend. B．It’ll get us to reflect on energy crisis.
C．It’s nothing but a short-term phenomenon. D．It’ll excite the public curiosity about science.
29．Which of the following is not the problem of using drones for light shows compared with fireworks
A．Using high electricity. B．Causing trouble to the public.
C．Worsening environmental problems. D．Bothering animals like horses and birds.
30．Which of the following may Howitt suggest according to the last paragraph
A．Promoting the production of drones. B．Diversifying the functions of drones.
C．Limiting the displays of fireworks. D．Staging drone shows as another choice.
31．In which part of a website can we read this text
A．Health. B．Business. C．Environment. D．Advertisement.
As psychologists (心理学家) have long recognised, we humans cope with negative things by employing psychological defences. These often take the form of self-serving biases (偏见), that is, we tend to owe other people’s successes to good luck, while seeing our own good results as a sign of born talent. Another example is the ’better-than-average’ effect, in which case we think we’re better than most others at various skills from driving to maths.
Getting defensive when we’re criticised, or when we make a mistake, is yet another of these self-protective mechanisms (机制). As the politicians so often say: “mistakes were made, but not by me”.
So, when you give someone negative feedback (反馈) or you criticise them or their beliefs, you are — perhaps unconsciously — threatening their psychological defences. By forcing them to recognise how they’ve mistaken, you’re likely to trigger extremely uncomfortable social emotions, such as a shame, guilt or embarrassment, or scary thoughts of rejection or loss of status. A way for people to avoid these uncomfortable feelings and thoughts is to get defensive, to deny they did anything wrong, or to engage in the mental gymnastics needed to save face.
Support for the social and moral aspects of defensiveness comes from a study by psychologists at Australia’s University of Flinders in 2020. The researchers showed that volunteers’ defensiveness (about past mistakes or possible moral guilt) was strengthened if they’d just had an experience of being socially rejected — thus making them more mentally weak. Contrarily, the volunteers acted less defensively if they’d had an earlier opportunity to demonstrate their moral values, which would have made them feel more secure about their moral standing.
One practical point from all this is that when you’re giving negative feedback, it pays to consider the effect it may have on the other person’s self-confidence. Therefore, focus your criticism on what they did wrong, not on their personality or character. You can also take some of the sting out by concentrating on how their mistake can be fixed or how they can improve next time, that way they’re less likely to take things so personally.
32．Which of the following is an example of “using psychological defences”
A．A teacher praises students’ progress to encourage them to keep learning.
B．When seeing a classmate win a competition, someone says he is just fortunate.
C．People usually feel confident and proud when they show their driving skills.
D．A student credits their excellent grade to hard work after studying for weeks.
33．What does the underlined word “trigger” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Control. B．Hide. C．Cause. D．Reduce.
34．What does the passage suggest doing when giving criticism
A．Ignoring the ways to fix the mistakes made.
B．Concentrating on the person’s character flaws directly.
C．Pointing out only the mistakes without any suggestions.
D．Focusing on how to correct the mistakes.
35．What is the text mainly about
A．Psychological Defences and How to Deal with Them.
B．The “Better-than-average” Effect in Daily Life.
C．Negative Feedback and Its Harm to People.
D．The Importance of Self-confidence in Society.

Bridging the Digital Divide for the Elderly
Last Saturday witnessed our school volunteer club organizing an activity at Guangming Community Center, aiming at helping the elderly bridge the digital divide.
The activity began with one volunteer sharing basic digital skills, ranging from making video calls, to using mobile payments and booking medical appointments online. Then Volunteers were divided into groups to provide individual guidance for the elderly. Through step-by-step instructions, even those without using any smart phone experience gradually gained confidence.
This activity was highly spoken of, because not only did it enable the seniors to embrace the digital life but it also created a chance for us students to learn to care for the senior citizens and build a future where technology unites, not divides.
