UNIT 1 Growing up
阅读理解
A
（2025·太原三模）Walking into the on-campus barbershop， the student customers will be greeted by Alexander Garcia with clippers in hand， a barber chair， a full professional clipping set， and customers chatting about Ozzy’s latest DJ set in the background.
Garcia started cutting hair during his junior year of high school.He spent his time learning from barber videos by 360 Jeezy on YouTube about different hair styles.That learning took trial and error， and he spent his time practicing on his younger cousin， but he never intended it to be a business.
He came into college as an Electrical and Computer Engineering major and spent his time in the students’ associations， working as a part-time DJ.His journey of cutting hair on campus began in the second year， with mainly roommates and close friends coming in for a cut and a chat， but his hobby fully developed into CutzbyOzzy earlier this year.Barbers in the city are expensive， he noticed， especially for college students， which pushed him to expand his hobby to a private business.
Garcia is busy， with appointments made usually a week in advance.Customers can pay $18 for a full haircut and $5 for a line-up.His business grows mostly through the word-of-mouth of his customers， who are mainly first-years.“Seeing that most of the customers are freshmen， I like to give them advice， try to explain my own experience and promote student organizations because I feel that enhances my experience，” he said.“I lead them through things I encounter on the way — internships （实习）， scholarships， job opportunities， and questions.”
To Garcia， it’s about creating the feel of walking into an actual barbershop； it’s about offering instructions and friendship to his customers.He’s found over time that these students start breaking out of their shells and coming to him with their problems.
“I can just never stay put，” he said.“I always like to try different things in different fields.Apart from being an engineer， the barbershop is truly my life.”
1.What inspired Garcia to start his barbershop business？（ ）
A.His hobby as a part-time DJ. B.The real demand from his friends.
C.The high cost of haircut in the city. D.His barbering experience in high school.
2.What helps Garcia’s business grow？（ ）
A.Discounts for the freshmen. B.Recommendation by customers.
C.Advertisements via social media. D.Partnership with local barbershops.
3.How does Garcia distinguish from other barbers in the city？（ ）
A.He keeps his barbershop better-equipped.
B.He provides a wider selection of hairstyles.
C.He shares more practical guidance for students.
D.He introduces more job opportunities to graduates.
4.Which of the following can best describe Garcia？（ ）
A.Ambitious and adventurous. B.Multitalented and supportive.
C.Knowledgeable and intelligent. D.Business-minded and fame-seeking.

（2025·重庆三模）“A fish out of water.” “A bike without a chain.” There are many metaphors for culture shock， all of which attempt to describe the unique experience of being far from one’s home country and culture.
Scientists have studied culture shock for over a century.Rather than focus on the purely negative aspects， psychologists describe it as a process of stress and adjustment.The first stage is the honeymoon phase， when we are filled with excitement about being in another country.Eventually， as daily challenges arise， we enter a state of crisis and anxiety， harboring unfriendly feelings about the host culture.The longer we are immersed in the culture， we adjust and recover from those negative feelings.Finally， after some time we adjust even more and fully accept the new culture.
One of the factors that determines how we react to cultural stress is our personality.Not surprisingly， extraverts （外向者） tend to have an easier time adjusting to new cultures.That is because being in a new country means meeting many new people and spending a lot of time around them， and extraverts thrive in these situations.But introverts simply prefer to be alone after spending time in groups， and only have limited energy to spend in social settings.
Cultural intelligence， or CQ， also plays its part.Cultural intelligence is defined as the capability of an individual to function effectively in situations characterized by cultural diversity.It has to do with our interest in interacting with people from culturally diverse backgrounds， and our ability to adapt to new cultural context.It is argued that the higher our CQ， the lesser the effect of culture shock on our ability to cope in new situations.
Many effective coping strategies are interpersonal.A recent study found that relating to others with empathy is significantly associated with lower stress levels abroad.The more we are able to take on other people’s points of view， the more positive our interpersonal relationships and thus our adaptation to the stress of culture shock.
5.What is the function of the first paragraph？（ ）
A.Explaining the quotes. B.Raising an argument.
C.Introducing the topic. D.Presenting an example.
6.How will a person feel the moment he arrives in a foreign country？（ ）
A.Anxious. B.Thrilled.
C.Shocked. D.Grateful.
7.Who will most probably be affected by the cultural shock？（ ）
A.An active boy interested in anything new.
B.A shy boy unwilling to socialize with strangers.
C.A quiet girl open to diverse cultural backgrounds.
D.A communicative girl fluent in the local language.
8.What is important for dealing with the cultural shock？（ ）
A.Lowering the stress level.
B.Developing self-awareness.
C.Analyzing the cause of discomfort.
D.Understanding others with sympathy.

Dear fellow students，
With the approach of the end of July， our school has decided to hold
an adult ceremony for all second-year students.This is a significant milestone in our lives， marking the transition from childhood to adulthood.
Integrity and virtue are the values that we must uphold as adults.We
must be responsible for our actions， and always obey the law.It is also
important to be careful when we make decisions about taking out loans or
making other financial commitments.We must strive to be mature and
steady in all aspects of our lives， and devote ourselves to achieving our
goals.
I hope that this ceremony will inspire us to continue working towards
a bright future.Let us embrace this new chapter in our lives with
enthusiasm and determination.
Thank you.

（2025·太原三模）Walking into the on-campus barbershop， the
student customers will be greeted by Alexander Garcia with clippers in
hand， a barber chair， a full professional clipping set， and customers
chatting about Ozzy’s latest DJ set in the background.
Garcia started cutting hair during his junior year of high school.He
spent his time learning from barber videos by 360 Jeezy on YouTube about
different hair styles.That learning took trial and error， and he spent his
time practicing on his younger cousin， but he never intended it to be a
business.
He came into college as an Electrical and Computer Engineering
major and spent his time in the students’ associations， working as a
part-time DJ. His journey of cutting hair on campus began in the second
year， with mainly roommates and close friends coming in for a cut and a
chat， but his hobby fully developed into CutzbyOzzy earlier this
year.Barbers in the city are expensive， he noticed， especially for
college students， which pushed him to expand his hobby to a private
business.
Garcia is busy， with appointments made usually a week in
advance.Customers can pay $18 for a full haircut and $5 for a line-up.His
business grows mostly through the word-of-mouth of his customers， who
are mainly first-years.“Seeing that most of the customers are freshmen，
I like to give them advice， try to explain my own experience and promote
student organizations because I feel that enhances my experience，” he
said.“I lead them through things I encounter on the way — internships
（实习）， scholarships， job opportunities， and questions.”
To Garcia， it’s about creating the feel of walking into an actual
barbershop； it’s about offering instructions and friendship to his
customers.He’s found over time that these students start breaking out of
their shells and coming to him with their problems.
“I can just never stay put，” he said.“I always like to try different
things in different fields.Apart from being an engineer， the barbershop is
truly my life.”

（2025·重庆三模）“A fish out of water.” “A bike without a
chain.” There are many metaphors for culture shock， all of which
attempt to describe the unique experience of being far from one’s home
country and culture.
Scientists have studied culture shock for over a century.Rather than
focus on the purely negative aspects， psychologists describe it as a
process of stress and adjustment.The first stage is the honeymoon phase，
when we are filled with excitement about being in another
country.Eventually， as daily challenges arise， we enter a state of crisis
and anxiety， harboring unfriendly feelings about the host culture.The
longer we are immersed in the culture， we adjust and recover from those
negative feelings.Finally， after some time we adjust even more and fully
accept the new culture.
One of the factors that determines how we react to cultural stress is
our personality.Not surprisingly， extraverts （外向者） tend to have an
easier time adjusting to new cultures.That is because being in a new
country means meeting many new people and spending a lot of time
around them， and extraverts thrive in these situations.But introverts
simply prefer to be alone after spending time in groups， and only have
limited energy to spend in social settings.
Cultural intelligence， or CQ， also plays its part.Cultural
intelligence is defined as the capability of an individual to function
effectively in situations characterized by cultural diversity.It has to do
with our interest in interacting with people from culturally diverse
backgrounds， and our ability to adapt to new cultural context.It is argued
that the higher our CQ， the lesser the effect of culture shock on our
ability to cope in new situations.
Many effective coping strategies are interpersonal.A recent study
found that relating to others with empathy is significantly associated with
lower stress levels abroad.The more we are able to take on other
people’s points of view， the more positive our interpersonal
relationships and thus our adaptation to the stress of culture shock.
