江西专升本英语模拟试题及答案(2023.01.05)

　　英语是江西专升本必考公共基础课，下面来看英语阅读理解模拟试题及答案。

　　阅读理解：

　　Sometimes people give us nicknames(绰号) in order to make fun of us, which can really hurt.

　　Four Eyes, Metal Mouth, Dumbo, Slow Poke and Grater Face. We've all heard kids calling nasty(令人厌恶的) nicknames like these. Maybe you've ever used similar nicknames on other kids, or had one yourself.

　　A playground bruise or wound usually disappears after a couple of days, but the pain and anger coming from being called a cruel nickname can last much longer than that. If you've ever laughed at another kid by making up or using a tease nickname, or if you've ever received one, you know that names like Fatso(胖子), Smelly and Short Stuff can be very hurtful. Plus, they have a habit of sticking to us like glue!

　　People use negative nicknames as a way of keeping someone out of a group, of gaining power over someone, or of making themselves feel more important. You may know a kid in your class who always makes nicknames for the other kids. This student likes to feel cool by acting like the official “nickname makers”. This can give a student a feeling of power, but that power comes at the cost of making other kids feel bad. Kids who give others hurtful nicknames are often trying to cover up the fact that they really feel bad about themselves.

　　Like other kinds of insults(侮辱), a cruel nickname can be used to make a kid feel being left out or angry. Sometimes they're even nastier than most ways of being mean, because they can be so hard to shake off.
