A
The movie Home Coming took the lead in the box office during the National Day holiday in 2022.

It tells a story that happened in North Africa. After a war breaks out there, two Chinese diplomats(外交官) are ordered to help evacuate the overseas Chinese. After completing the first task successfully, they learn that another group of Chinese citizens(公民) are still in great danger. Realizing that these people will die if they don’t give a hand, the two men travel through the war area. They risk their lives to help over 100 Chinese citizens go to a safe place. The movie not only shows how the two diplomats protect the people with courage, but also shows their deep love for the country and people.
Home Coming reminds many people of a similar real event which truly happened in Libya in 2011. Chinese Embassy(大使馆) helped the evacuation of more than 30,000 Chinese citizens. Behind this event were many efforts of Chinese diplomats. After watching the film, a man recalled his personal experience. “We are the lucky ones because we have a strong country and are well protected,” he said.
Home Coming is a success partly because of the growing national pride and confidence Chinese people have in our country. A comment reads, “Chinese passport might not get you anywhere you want, but it can always bring you back home.”
(C)1. What does the underlined word “evacuate” in the second paragraph mean?
A. 躲藏 B. 逃避 C. 撤离 D. 评价

答案： 1.C 2.B 3.D

B
In the park, you see a group of people, all looking up at the sky. Without thinking about it, you look upwards, too. Why? In the concert, someone begins to clap and suddenly the whole room joins in. You do, too. Why?
Sometimes we feel we are acting correctly when we do the same as others. The more people follow an idea, the better or truer we think the idea is. It’s the social proof(社会认同感) that works.

The scientist Asch did an experiment(实验). It shows how social proof can influence us. In a room, a man is shown Line 1, and next to it are three lines (A, B, C). A is longer, C is shorter and B is as long as Line 1. He must tell which of the three lines is as long as Line 1.
When the man is alone, he gives the correct answer B. Then, five other men enter the room and each of them gives the answer C as they were told to. Now the man changes his answer and gives the answer C. Asch got the same result many times among different subjects(实验对象).
Why do we act like this? Well, in the past, following others was a way to keep away from danger. Suppose(假设) that 5000 years ago you were hunting with friends. Suddenly, they all ran away. What would you have done? Would you have stayed? No, you would have run, too. We are descendants(后代) of those who copied others’ action. It is so deeply planted in our mind that we still use it now.
The advertising industry, for example, often makes use of it. So be careful whenever a company says its product(产品) is “the most popular”.
(B)4. At the beginning of the passage, the writer leads in the topic by ______.
A. telling a story B. giving examples
C. answering questions D. showing a map
(B)5. According to Paragraph 3, the experiment by Asch shows ______.
A. following others is always right
B. social proof may change people’s ideas
C. it’s difficult to do the experiment
D. people can study better if they are alone
(C)6. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 4 refers to “______”.
A. running with others
B. hunting with friends
C. copying others’ action
D. doing something different
(D)7. The following sentence would best be placed at the beginning of ______.
Social proof has special power.
A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3
C. Paragraph 4 D. Paragraph 5
(D)8. According to the passage, we can infer that ______.
A. it’s important to run with others anytime
B. products in the advertisement are the best
C. we mustn’t copy others’ action to keep safe
D. we need to think twice before following others
