6Could you hold on a few minutes__________I check this with my boss?
A.forB.sinceC.duringD.while
參考答案：D
參考解析：
這里需要一個(gè)表示“在什么時(shí)候”的詞。C、D兩項(xiàng)均有此意，但durin9是介詞，后面不能跟句子。D項(xiàng)是正確的。句意為：“您先別掛電話好嗎?我去問一下我的老板。”

A.he WOrries aboutB.he WOrried abOutC.did he worry aboutD.does he worry about

A.has not studied psychologyB.had studied psychologyC.did study psychologyD.studied psychology
參考答案：B
參考解析：
在wish之后的賓語從句中，如果表示對(duì)過去發(fā)生的事情的一種愿望，則從句用過去完成 時(shí)態(tài)，這是虛擬語氣的用法。
9A teacher__________ do every exercise but a student
A.may not ; mustB.neednt ; mustC.cant ; shouldD.mustnt; should
參考答案：B
參考解析：
needn’t表示“不必”，而mustn’t表示“禁止，不許”。結(jié)合句意，此題應(yīng)選B項(xiàng)。
10The president__________Mr. Baker medical adviser.
A.promisedB.praisedC.imaginedD.appointed
參考答案：D
參考解析：
appoint sb.(position)意為“任命某人為……(職位)”，符合句意。
11Eat as many vegetables as possible,for they are rich__________iron.\
A.ofB.inC.withD.for
參考答案：B
參考解析：

12We couldnt eat in a restaurant because__________of us had__________ money on us.
A.all; noB.any; noC.none; anyD.no one; any
參考答案：C
參考解析：
從前半句提供的信息來看，后半句應(yīng)該是一個(gè)完全否定句，而A項(xiàng)中由all引導(dǎo)的句子是不完全否定的句子，即“不全都……”，應(yīng)予以排除。
13It is a small country，yet has a lot of__________resources.
A.potentialB.unknownC.secretD.unlimited
參考答案：A
參考解析：
potential“潛在的”;unknown“不可知的”;secret“秘密的”;unlimited“無限制的”。根據(jù)題干，可知A項(xiàng)是正確的。句意為：“這個(gè)國家很小，但它潛在的能源卻很豐富。”
14He__________a great deal in the old days.
A.was sufferedB.had been sufferedC.sufferedD.had suffered
參考答案：C
參考解析：
句中的'時(shí)間狀語in the old days為過去的時(shí)間，因此本句用一般過去時(shí)。
15The differences between Chinese anal western society can __________misunderstandings.
A.courseB.causesC.createD.rise
參考答案：C
參考解析：
course“課程，過程”;cause“引起，造成”;create“引起，產(chǎn)生”;rise“上升，起立”。8、C兩項(xiàng)都有“引起”的意思，但B項(xiàng)不是動(dòng)詞原形，不能跟在can后。所以，C項(xiàng)是正確的。句意為：“中國和西方(在文化和風(fēng)俗上)的不同會(huì)引起誤解。”
16Wood furniture does not depreciate in value
A.if they are handled properly and protected properlyB.unless handling and protecting properlyC.if properly handled and protectedD.unless for all its handling and protection
參考答案：C
參考解析：
if意為“如果”，而unless意為“除非”，相當(dāng)于if...not。根據(jù)句意可知，應(yīng)選擇if引導(dǎo)的條件狀語從句。當(dāng)if引導(dǎo)的從句與主句的主語相同時(shí)，可以用“if+分詞”結(jié)構(gòu)。
17What\we must do now__________make a careful investigation on the circumstances.
A.areB.isC.is toD.were to
參考答案：C
參考解析：
本句的主語是What we must do now，這是一個(gè)表示單數(shù)的主語從句，而空格后是一個(gè)動(dòng)詞短語，因此選擇C項(xiàng)，即動(dòng)詞不定式作表語。
18The letters PTO__________parent-teacher organization.
A.stand forB.call forC.head forD.care for參考答案：A
參考解析：
stand for意為“代表，表示”，是一個(gè)固定搭配。
19__________round the city,we were impressed by the citys new look.
A.TakenB.TakingC.To be takenD.Being taken
參考答案：A
參考解析：
此題考查分詞的用法。句子的主語是we，所給動(dòng)詞是take“帶領(lǐng)，帶著”，而且主句的時(shí)態(tài)是一般過去時(shí)，因此空格處應(yīng)選過去分詞taken，表被動(dòng)、完成。
20It is no use__________ that you didnt know the truth.
A.pretendB.to be pretendingC.pretendingD.Pretended
參考答案：C
參考解析：
“It is no use/good+動(dòng)名詞短語”是一個(gè)固定的句型，It是形式主語，真正的主語是動(dòng)名詞短語，意為“……是沒有用/好處的”。

IV. Reading Comprehension ( 60 points)
Directions:There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by fourquestions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Chooseone best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
根據(jù)下面內(nèi)容，回答題：
Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it is painful? This might be called lazi-ness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labour through your work you may say that youre "hot". Thats true.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. Forsome people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No,one has discovered why this is so ,but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自語)as: "Get up,John! Youll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at histemperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wivesreahze what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
You cant change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit canhelp, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe youre sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late any-way. Counteract(對(duì)抗)your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. Ifyour energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise beforeyour usual hour. This wont change your cycle, but youll get up steam(鼓起干勁) and work better atyour low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit onthe edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the trouble some search forclean clothes by laying them out the night before. When ever possible, do routine work in the after-noon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.
36Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?
A.Unawareness of energy cycles.B.Familiar monologues.C.A change in a family members energy cycle.D.Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family member.
參考答案：A
參考解析：
文中第二段最后一句表明，了解能量周期可以結(jié)束家庭成員之間的爭吵。
37If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning,he should__________.
A.change his energy cycleB.overcome his lazinessC.get up earlier than usualD.go to bed earlier
參考答案：C
參考解析：
文中第三段談到了對(duì)抗能量周期的方法，故答案是C項(xiàng)。
38You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will
A.help to keep your energy for the days workB.help you to control your temper early in the dayC.enable you to concentrate on your routine workD.keep your energy cycle under control all day
參考答案：A
參考解析：
在文中第四段第一句“Get off to aslow start which saves your energy.”后，接著就寫到了具體的例子，因此答案選A項(xiàng)。
39Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save ones e,nnergy.B.Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.C.Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.D.Children have energy cycles, too.參考答案：B
參考解析：
根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，可知Dr.Kleitman只是證實(shí)了每個(gè)人都有自己的能量周期，但他并未講出為什么人們會(huì)在一天的不同時(shí)間里處于巔峰狀態(tài)。因此答案為B項(xiàng)。

Alaska, which was called Russian America before it was sold to the United States of America,
joined the union as the forty-ninth state in 1959.
Alaska is now the largest of all the 50 states of the United States.
It was in 1867 that President A. Johnsons Secretary of State ( 國務(wù)卿 ), Seward bought Alaskafrom the Russians at a cost of 7.2 million. The buying of the huge northern land mass seemed at firstsomething foolishly done. Not only was Alaska difficult to reach, but it was also hard to live in, and itappeared to have no importance in time of war. Besides, there are volcanoes there as Alaska lies onthe Pacific "ring of fire" (火山帶). In Alaska large treeless areas are covered with snow all theyear. For these reasons the buying of Alaska was called "Sewards Fooly" at that time.
However, in 1596 gold was found in Alaska,and people poured into the land quickly. Since thenother important natural resources were discovered, including oil. Soon people changed their thinkingabout "Sewards Fooly". But most people visit Alaska in order to see the endless beauty of naturethat the northern land discloses to them. For instance ,there are about 11,000 islands in Alaska. Andin a certain area of Alaska the sun does not set for 52 days every year.

根據(jù)下面內(nèi)容，回答題：
Many people want to know how to analyze problems they meet. There are six stages in analyzing a problem.
First the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sams bicycle is broken,and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the thinker must define the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must find thereason why it does not work. For instance, he must determine if the problem is with the gears, thebrakes, or the frame. He must make his problem more specfic.
Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possi-ble solutions. For instance, suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is some-thing wrong with the gear wheels. At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read aboutgears. He can talk to his friends at the bike shop.
After studying the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution.Take Sam as an illustration. His suggestions might be:put oil on the gear wheels;buy new gearwheels and replace the old ones;tighten or loosen the gear wheels.
Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the final ideacomes very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a newway. Sam, for example, suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum between the gear wheels.He immediately realizes the solution to his problem:he must clean the gear wheels.
Finally the solution is tested. Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle
works perfectly. In short, he has solved the problem.
52In analyzing a problem we should do all the following except __________ .
A.recognize and define the problemB.look for information to make the problem clearerC.have suggestions for a possible solutionD.find a solution by trial or mistake
參考答案：D
參考解析：
A項(xiàng)在第二段能夠找到;8項(xiàng)在第四段能夠找到;C項(xiàng)在倒數(shù)第二段能夠找到。D項(xiàng)文中沒有提到，故符合題意。

A.illustrate the ways to repair his bicycleB.discuss the problems of this bicycleC.tell us how to solve a problemD.show us how simple it is to repair a bicycle
參考答案：C
參考解析：

Post1990 graduates are likely to become a generation without property ownership due to more emphasis on personal value，the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences published in a report on Wednesday.
Around 30 percent of the post90s graduates surveyed live in a property of below 20 square meters one year after graduation.Half of the surveyed said they are unwilling to degrade their living conditions by incurring housing debts.
The report，Society Blue Paper: China Social Situation Analysis and Prediction，surveyed 4,110 students born after 1990 in 12 universities across the country.Of the interviewed,2,730 of them are currently still students at school and 1,380 are graduates.
The survey reveals that in a year after graduation，more than 70 percent of graduates rent houses or live in dormitories provided by their employers.About 20 percent live at home of their parents or relatives and less than 5 percent live in the houses of their own.
“ The report shows most post90s graduates have to purchase a house on their own，” said Tian Feng，deputy director of the research lab for teenagers and social problems affiliated(隸屬的)to CASS.It is still a rigid(一成不變的)demand for the post90s to have their own houses.Only one third of respondents agree to lower their current living conditions to save money to purchase a house，and about 55 percent choose not to buy a house if the investment means a heavy debt burden.
More than half of the graduates believe that property investment is the best way to maintain the value of money for the time being.However，if the graduates had a sum of money for a down payment on a home，most said they would rather use the money on entrepreneurship(創(chuàng)業(yè))or other business endeavors which they say provide a sense of achievement.
Tian said that on the one hand，the post1990 generation recognize traditional Chinese values which regard property as a necessity to build a family but on the other hand，they prefer a highquality and freestyle life instead of living under the economic restrictions imposed by heavy house loans.
24.Which of the following is NOT about post1990 graduates’ property ownership?
A.They put more stress on personal value.
B.They are unwilling to lower their current living conditions.
C.They want to invest on other things providing a sense of achievement.
D.They needn’t purchase a house on their own.
25.What does the underlined word “incurring” probably mean?
A.Bearing. B.Leaving.C.Clearing. D.Removing.
26.According to the passage，at most how many graduates interviewed have their own houses?
A.206. B.137.C.69. D.55.
27.What can we infer from the last paragraph about the post1990 generation?
A.They treat property as a preference to build a house.
B.They prefer a highquality and freestyle life.
C.They have mixed feelings about property ownership.
D.They lack a sense of responsibility.

When her five daughters were young, Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity(團(tuán)結(jié)). To show this, she held up one chopstick, representing one person. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.
Helene Ann and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didnt have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Dannys mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However, Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.
Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elizabeth explains, “Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business.”
Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996, with three generations of Ans working together. Now the Ans corporation makes more than $20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success.
28. Helene tied several chopsticks together to show ________.
A. the strength of family unity

30. What can we infer about the Ann daughters?

31. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

Across Britain，burnt toast will be served to mothers in bed this morning as older sons and daughters rush to deliver their supermarket bunches of flowers. But，according to a new study，we should be placing a higher value on motherhood all year.
Mothers have long known that their home workload was just as heavy as paid work.Now，the new study has shown that if they were paid for their parental labours，they would earn as much as ￡172，000 a year.
The study looked at the range of jobs mothers do，as well as the hours they are working，to determine the figure.This would make their yearly income ￡30，000 more than the Prime Minister earns.
By analysing the numbers，it found the average mother works 119 hours a week，40 of which would usually be paid at a standard rate and 79 hours as overtime.After questioning 1，000 mothers with children under 18，it found that, on most days，Mums started their routine work at 7 am and finished at around 11 pm.
To calculate just how much mothers would earn from that labour，it suggested some of the roles that Mums could take on，including housekeeper，parttime lawyer，personal trainer and entertainer.Being a parttime lawyer，at ￡48.98 an hour，would prove to be the most profitable of the “Mum jobs”，with psychologist(心理學(xué)家) a close second.
It also asked mothers about the challenges they face，with 80 per cent making emotional(情感的) demand as the hardest thing about motherhood.
Over a third of Mums felt they needed more training and around half said they missed going out with friends.
The study shows mothers matter all year long and not just on Mothers Day.The emotional，physical and mental energy mothers devote to their children can be neverending，but children are also sources of great joy and happiness.Investing(投入) in time for parenting and raising relationships is money well spent.
32.How much would a mother earn a year if working as the Prime Minister?
A.￡30，000. B.￡142，000.
C.￡172，000. D.￡202，000.
33.The biggest challenge for most mothers is from ________.
A.emotional demand B.low pay for work
C.heavy workload D.lack of training
34.What is stressed in the last paragraph?
A.Mothers importance shows in family all year long.
B.The sacrifices mothers make are huge but worthwhile.
C.Mothers devotion to children can hardly be calculated.
D.Investing time in parenting would bring a financial return.
35.What can we conclude from the study?
A.Mothers working hours should be largely reduced.
B.Mothers should balance their time for work and rest.
C.Mothers labour is of a higher value than it is realized.
D.Mothers should be freed from housework for social life.

Do’s and Don’ts of Donating
Giving up your unused or unwanted stuff is a great way to make space in your home for the items that you do enjoy on a regular basis.36.________ Here are some do’s and don’ts of donating your belongings.
Do Prep Your Clothes
You’ve thoroughly cleaned out your closets and drawers，and have a mountain of clothing waiting to be donated.Before you bag up these pieces，inspect each one to ensure that they’re in good condition.Make sure all buttons are accounted for，and that you can’t see any stains.37________
Don’t Donate Damaged Items
The number one rule of donating your stuff is to make sure that it’s in good，useable condition.Don’t pass along clothes or furniture with rips(裂口)or stains，chipped dishes，books that are missing pages，or games with lost pieces.38.________ Find a local company that will recycle these items instead.
Do Donate More Than Just Clothes
39________ Stuffed animals，flamed pictures，unused candles，small power tools，sports equipment，ornaments，baskets，blenders，dishes，glassware，utensils，silverware，pots and pans，curtains，blankets，toasters，mixers，pillows，towels，bed sheets，bikes，and exercise equipment are much sought after donations.
40________
With a little common sense it’s easy to figure out items that are ideal for donation.But unfortunately some people will throw away the contents of their home without a second thought.As a gentle reminder，it’s never a good idea to donate car parts，flammable products，construction materials，weapons，or explosives.
A.Nobody wants to inherit your damaged belongings.
B.Food donations are always in need.
C.Don’t Even Think of Donating These Items
D.Not sure where to start?
E.Don’t Donate Large Appliances
F.Clothes aren’t the only household items that can be donated.
G.Wash the items to make them fresh and ready for their new owner.

Dear Jim，
So glad that you are interested in my new flat. Now I would like tell you something about it. Locating in the north of the city, this ResidentialCenter is small with only six building.

The sitting room is the part that I like best, because it is brightly with a lovely balcony, which I can enjoy the beautiful garden below.

參考范文：
Dear teacher,
How are you going recently ? I miss you very much.
I was your student for four years and I really learned much from you. You taught us how to be real and honest people, for which I was grateful. From the bottom of my heart, I will say “thank you” to you and our school.
I am getting along well with my friends and studies at university. In my spare time, I take part in some clubs, which I think is important for my improvement. If time is enough, I often go to the library for further study. As a result, I made rapid progress.
Thank you again, my dear teacher. If I have time, I will go back to see you. Also I will study harder to repay you and our school.
Yours
Faithfully

When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother’s Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, And at restaurants did not take her seriously ,did not give her good
service ,pretended not to
Understand her ,or even acted as if they did not hear her .
My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she . I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票經(jīng)紀(jì)人).I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing, “This is Mrs.Tan..”
And my mother was standing beside me ,whispering loudly, “Why he don’t send me cheek already two week lone.”
And then , in perfect English I said : “I’m getting rather concerned .You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.”
Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately , I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”
The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs.Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.

B
When something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say，”Well,it’s so-and-so’s fault.”or “I know I’m late，but it’s not my fault；the car broke down.”It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation，you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However,you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success. Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on the person. You should accept that the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success. 46. According to the passage, winners .
A. deal with problems rather than blame others
B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
C. have responsible and able colleagues
D. blame themselves rather that others
答案：A

Good evening.You are listening to Pop World of BCD International.I’m Susan Welch.Since many people want to listen to and understand pop songs,radio producers at BCD International have made hundreds of programs over the years.The History of Pop or The Road to Music brings you the language of pop music and information about the period and the artists.If you want to hear from the artists themselves,there’s a new series called About the Big Hits.This is based on interviews with popular singers and song writers.They talk to us about the meanings and ideas behind songs.
If you want to understand the words to the big music hits,Pop Words is the program for you.After all it’s hard enough for native English speakers to understand most pop songs.So,if English isn’t your first language,you shouldn’t be surprised if the words to many songs leave you in the dark.

Mark Twain,as you know,was famous in his days as a public speaker.In his public speeches,he always liked to tell funny stories and he also liked to play jokes on his friends. One day,one of his friends lost his money and asked him to buy a ticket for him.“I don’t have enough money to pay for your ticket and mine,”Mark Twain said.The friend didn’t know what to do. “We can do this,”Mark Twain said.“We can get on the train and when the conductor comes to check the tickets,you can hide under my seat.”
Later,however,when the conductor came to check the tickets,Mark Twain gave him two tickets—one for himself and the other for his friend.Then he explained in a loud voice.“My friend here is a very strange man.When he travels on the train,he does not like to sit on the seat.He enjoys lying under the seat on the floor.”O(jiān)f course everyone in the train lookedat the poor friend under the seat and laughed at him loudly.

Sitting in the garden for my friend’s birthday. I felt a buzz (振動(dòng)) in my pocket. My heart raced when I saw the email sender’s name. The email started off: “Dear Mr Green, thank you for your interest” and “the review process took longer than expected.” It ended with “We are sorry to inform you…”and my vision blurred (模糊). The position—measuring soil quality in the Sahara Desert as part of an undergraduate research programme — had felt like the answer I had spent years looking for.
I had put so much time and emotional energy into applying, and I thought the rejection meant the end of the road for my science career.
So I was shocked when, not long after the email, Professor Mary Devon, who was running the programme, invited me to observe the work being done in her lab. I jumped at the chance, and a few weeks later I was equally shocked—and overjoyed—when she invited me to talk with her about potential projects I could pursue in her lab. What she proposed didn’t seem as exciting as the original project I had applied to, but I was going to give it my all.
I found myself working with a robotics professor on techniques for collecting data from the desert remotely. That project, which I could complete from my sofa instead of in the burning heat of the desert, not only survived the lockdown but worked where traditional methods didn’t. In the end, I had a new scientific interest to pursue.
When I applied to graduate school, I found three programmes promising to allow me to follow my desired research direction. And I applied with the same anxious excitement as before. When I was rejected from one that had seemed like a perfect fit, it was undoubtedly difficult. But this time I had the perspective (視角) to keep it from sending me into panic. It helped that in the end I was accepted into one of the other programmes I was also excited about.
Rather than setting plans in stone, I’ve learned that sometimes I need to take the opportunities that are offered, even if they don’t sound perfect at the time, and make the most of them.
24. How did the author feel upon seeing the email sender’s name?

25. After talking with Professor Devon, the author decided to ________.
A. criticise the review process B. stay longer in the Sahara Desert
C. apply to the original project again D. put his heart and soul into the lab work
26. According to the author, the project with the robotics professor was ________.
A. demanding B. inspiring C. misleading D. amusing
27. What can we learn from this passage?
A. An invitation is a reputation. B. An innovation is a resolution.
C. A rejection can be a redirection. D. A reflection can be a restriction.
In recent years, researchers from diverse fields have agreed that short-termism is now a significant problem in industrialised societies. The inability to engage with longer-term causes and consequences leads to some of the world’s most serious problems: climate change, biodiversity collapse, and more. The historian Francis Cole argues that the West has entered a period where “only the present exists, a present characterised at once by the cruelty of the instant and by the boredom of an unending now”.
It has been proved that people have a bias (偏向) towards the present, focusing on loud attractions in the moment at the expense of the health, well-being and financial stability of their future selves or community. In business, this bias surfaces as short-sighted decisions. And on slow-burning problems like climate change, it translates into the unwillingness to make small sacrifices (犧牲) today that could make a major difference tomorrow. Instead, all that matters is next quarter’s profit, or satisfying some other near-term desires.
These biased perspectives cannot be blamed on one single cause. It is fair to say, though, that our psychological biases play a major role. People’s hesitancy to delay satisfaction is the most obvious example, but there are others.One of them is about how the most accessible information in the present affects decisions about the future. For instance, you might hear someone say: “It’s cold this winter, so I needn’t worry about global warming.”Another is that loud and urgent matters are given too much importance, making people ignore longer-term trends that arguably matter more. This is when a pop star draws far more attention than, say, gradual biodiversity decline.
As a psychologist once joked, if aliens (外星人) wanted to weaken humanity, they wouldn’t send ships; they would invent climate change. Indeed, when it comes to environmental transformations, we can develop a form of collective “poor memory”, and each new generation can believe the state of affairs they encounter is nothing out of the ordinary. Older people today, for example, can remember a time with insect-covered car windscreens after long drives. Children, on the other hand, have no idea that insect population has dropped dramatically.
28. The author quotes Francis Cole mainly to ________.
A. draw a comparison
B. introduce a topic
C. evaluate a statement
D. highlight a problem
29. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A#FormatImgID_2# Climate change has been forgotten.
B. Lessons of history are highly valued.
C. The human mind is bad at noting slow change.
D. Humans are unwilling to admit their shortcomings.
30. What does the author intend to tell us?
A. Far-sighted thinking matters to humans.
B. Humans tend to make long-term sacrifices.
C. Current policies facilitate future decision-making.
D. Bias towards the present helps reduce near-term desires.
What is life? Like most great questions, this one is easy to ask but difficult to answer. The reason is simple: we know of just one type of life and it’s challenging to do science with a sample size of one. The field of artificial life-called ALife for short — is the systematic attempt to spell out life’s fundamental principles. Many of these practitioners, so-called ALifers, think that somehow making life is the surest way to really understand what life is.
So far no one has convincingly made artificial life. This track record makes ALife a ripe target for criticism, such as declarations of the field’s doubtful scientific value. Alan Smith, a complexity scientist, is tired of such complaints. Asking about “the point” of ALife might be, well, missing the point entirely, he says. “The existence of a living system is not about the use of anything.” Alan says. “Some people ask me, ‘So what’s the worth of artificial life?’ Do you ever think, ‘What is the worth of your grandmother?’”
As much as many ALifers hate emphasizing their research’s applications, the attempts to create artificial life could have practical payoffs. Artificial intelligence may be considered ALife’s cousin in that researchers in both fields are enamored by a concept called open-ended evolution (演化). This is the capacity for a system to create essentially endless complexity, to be a sort of “novelty generator”. The only system known to exhibit this is Earth’s biosphere. If the field of ALife manages to reproduce life’s endless “creativity” in some virtual model, those same principles could give rise to truly inventive machines.
Compared with the developments of Al, advances in ALife are harder to recognize. One reason is that ALife is a field in which the central concept — life itself — is undefined. The lack of agreement among ALifers doesn’t help either. The result is a diverse line of projects that each advance along their unique paths. For better or worse, ALife mirrors the very subject it studies. Its muddled (混亂的) progression is a striking parallel (平行線) to the evolutionary struggles that have shaped Earth biosphere.
Undefined and uncontrolled#FormatImgID_3# ALife drives its followers to repurpose old ideas and generated novelty. It may be, of course, that these characteristics aren’t in any way surprising or singular. They may apply universally to all acts of evolution. Ultimately ALife may be nothing special. But even this dismissal suggests something：perhaps, just like life itself throughout the universe, the rise of ALife will prove unavoidable.
31. Regarding Alan Smith’s defence of ALife, the author is .
A. supportive B. puzzled C. unconcerned D. doubtful
32. What does the word “enamored” underlined in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A#FormatImgID_4# Shocked. B. Protected. C. Attracted. D. Challenged.
33. What can we learn from this passage?
A. ALife holds the key to human future. B. ALife and AI share a common feature.
C. AI mirrors the developments of ALife. D. AI speeds up the process of human evolution.
34. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Life Is Undefined. Can AI Be a Way Out?
B. Life Evolves. Can AI Help ALife Evolve, Too?
C. Life Is Undefined. Can ALife Be Defined One Day?
D. Life Evolves. Can Attempts to Create ALife Evolve, Too?

It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. ____35____
When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings. ____36____
Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. ____37____ The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.
Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注冊(cè)) or funding. ____38____ Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result? Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates.
____39____ Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.
What should students and their families do? They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower.
A. Higher education has achieved its true potential.
B. Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion.
C. Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.
D. However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching.
E. Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.
F. They’re even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.
G. In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.

Habit formation is the process by which behaviours become automatic. People develop countless habits as they explore the world, whether they are aware of them or not. Understanding how habits take shape may be helpful in changing bad habits.
Habits are built through learning and repetition. A person is thought to develop a habit in the course of pursuing goals by beginning to associate certain cues(刺激) with behavioural responses that help meet the goal. Over time, thoughts of the behaviour and ultimately the behaviour itself are likely to be triggered(觸發(fā)) by these cues.
A “habit loop(環(huán))” is a way of describing several related elements that produce habits. These elements are called the cue, the routine, and the reward. For example, stress could serve as a cue that one responds to by eating, which produces the reward﹣the reduction of stress. While a routine involves repeated behaviour, it’s not necessarily performed in response to a deep﹣rooted urge, as a habit is.
Old habits can be difficult to shake, and healthy habits are often harder to develop. But through repetition, it’s possible to form new habits. The amount of time needed to build a habit will depend on multiple factors, including the individual and the intended behaviour. While you are able to pickup a new habit in a few weeks, it takes many months to build a healthy habit. Take some time to think about what leads to bad habits and re﹣evaluate what you get out of them (or don’t). Consider and keep in mind why you want to make a change, including how the change reflects your values.
40. How are habits built?
________________________________________________________________
41. In what way is a routine different from a habit?
