Think about what you’ve learned from a particular rumor experience, and let it help you make sure it never happens again. Here are a few tips that will help you.
1
The more private information that you make public, the more ammunition(把柄) rumors will have, so be careful who you confide in(向……吐露).
Try to understand where it’s coming from, and why.
Is the rumor meant to hurt you, or is it just a case of misinformation or exaggeration? It’s important to get this information before you react to the rumor. 2 Resist the urge to dish it out.
Have you heard the saying "Someone can dish it out, but he or she can’t take it"? 3 If you spread gossip and rumors about others, you might become a person who deserves a taste of his or her own medicine.
Resist the urge to take revenge.
If you’ve been the victim of gossip and rumors and you know who started spreading them, you might want to go "an eye for an eye". 4 And taking revenge in this way might make you feel good for a short time. But in the end, it will just keep the cycle of rumors going. 5
A. Be cautious about making friends. B. Be careful about your private information. C. Try to persuade more people to be on your side. D. So if you can, figure out how the rumor occurs. E. In other words, don’t be the person to spread rumors.
F. It’s tending to make up lies or expose information that hurts others. G. And make you as much of a bully(恃强凌弱者) as any other rumor starter.

【文章大意】本文为说明文,讲述的是如何正确应对谣言。
1.B 【解析】根据下文的"The more private information that you make public, the more
ammunition(把柄) rumors will have, so be careful who you confide in(向……吐露)"可知,本段主要讲的是"对你自己的隐私要小心谨慎",故选B项。B项中的"private information"也与文中的"private information"相匹配。
2.D 【解析】根据本段的小标题"Try to understand where it’s coming from, and why"及空前
的内容可知,对谣言作出反应前,弄清楚谣言很重要。所以如果你能的话,要弄清楚谣言的来源和起因,故D项符合语境。
4.F 【解析】根据下文的"taking revenge in this way"可知,空处的内容应是报复的方法,
故F项符合语境。
5.G 【解析】根据上文的内容可知,如果以散布谣言的方式报复别人的话,你可能会在短
期内感觉良好,但是最后,这只会使得谣言继续被散布,故G项承接上文,进一步说明了这种报复方式的消极后果。 II.语法填空
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。 In the summer of 2015, I was in Finland for an internship. Although I 1 (read) that Finnish people are reserved and like to stay within their space, I had not expected it to be this:
At a bus stop: You are alone in the shade of 2 stop and that is your space. No one will come 3 (bother) you. Inside a bus: You enter a bus and see that all the window seats 4 (occupy). The bus is "full". You have to stand. Respect that space! This is rather extreme, but you really get anxious as to 5 you should sit.
You are scared to shout to the driver to stop the bus: I was running 6 all my strength to catch the bus and signaled the driver to stop. I entered the bus and all eyes were 7 (seeming) turned to me. I had never felt so 8 (guilt) at anything. In most 9 (case), when a Finn wants to leave his apartment but his neighbor is in the hallway, he’ll just slip away, 10 (pretend) not to see the neighbor.
【文章大意】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章,讲述了作者在芬兰所受到的文化冲击。

1.had read
【解析】考查时态。尽管我(之前)读到过芬兰人很保守,他们喜欢待在自己的空间里,但我没想过会是这样。此处陈述的是发生在2015年夏天作者去芬兰之前的事,表示过去的过去,所以用过去完成时。 2.the
【解析】考查冠词。此处特指前面提到的bus stop,故用定冠词the。 3.to bother
【解析】考查非谓语动词。没有人会过来打扰你。分析句子结构可知,此处应用不定式作目的状语。 4.are occupied
【解析】考查时态和语态。所有靠窗座位都被占了。此处描述的是芬兰平时的情况,再结合前后句的时态可知,此处应用一般现在时;且occupy"使用,占用"与seats是被动关系,故用被动语态。 5.where
6.with
【解析】考查介词。我用尽全身力气跑着赶公交车。with"使用",with all one’s strength"用尽全力"。 7.seemingly
【解析】考查副词。我上了公交车,似乎所有的目光都转到我身上了。空处修饰谓语动词,应用副词seemingly。 8.guilty
【解析】考查形容词。作者从来没有感到如此内疚过。feel是系动词,其后应接形容词作表语,故填guilty。 9.cases
【解析】考查名词复数。case作"具体情况"讲时是可数名词,空前有修饰词most,故用case的复数形式。 10.pretending
