You must have heard of many great writers around the world, like William Shakespeare and Charles Dickens. But do you know the writer Victor Hugo in France Victor Hugo is known as the Shakespeare of France, whose works are popular with readers around the world.
Hugo is perhaps best known for his novels Les Misérables and Notre-Dame de Paris. Notre- Dame de Paris has been made into countless films, musicals, and stage (舞台) plays.

He was among the most important cultural pioneers of his time and now continues to be the one in the modern world.
Hugo passed away at the age of 83 in 1885. Because of his importance to French culture and society, Victor Hugo was given high honor (荣誉) by the French government after his death. This year marks the 139th year of his death. Let us remember Victor Hugo as a great writer and try reading his famous works.

Earlier, only face-to-face communication was possible, but with the development of technology, we now have the phone, email, video calls and so on. It has become easier and much cheaper to communicate or have a conversation. We can easily communicate with our loved ones, whether they're close or far away.
Face-to-face communication includes direct personal interaction ( 互 动). Both parties can see each other's body language and facial expressions, and understand them easily, leading to more
effective communication. A study has shown that in our day-to-day life when we interact with someone face to face, we have a nonverbal ( 非言语的) communication of about 93%. In addition, face-to-face communication is more effective in building trust and making deeper connections.
But considering the long distance (距离) and time cost, face-to-face communication may not be
the best choice. So there, telephone, email, etc. are preferred. Without telephone conversation, some work may be difficult to get done in time. The conversation varies depending on what relationship you have with the caller. For example, it will be informal (非正式的) if you talk to your close friends or relatives. But if you are having a professional telephone conversation, then it will be formal. You must have a lot of practice and confidence to interact with the caller.
Telephone conversations have no nonverbal cues ( 暗 示 ), but they offer the convenience of communicating from a distance and at any time. Also, as they cannot see each other, both parties can speak without being under pressure.
So, which do you prefer
28. According Paragraph 1, what makes communication easier and cheaper
A. The growth of population.
B. The improvement of education. C. The development of technology.
29. What are the advantages of face-to-face communication
① Building trust. ② Making deeper connections.
③ Interacting directly. ④ Communicating from a distance.
A.①②④ B.①②③ C.②③④
30. What does the underlined word "varies" mean in Paragraph 3
A.变化 B.支持 C.模仿
31. What's the best title of the text
A. The Power of Face-to-face Communication B. The Strength of Telephone Communication
C. Communication Choices: Face to face vs. Telephone 第二节(共 4 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 8 分)
