But I also believe in the philosophy that we are not defined (定義) by what happens to us, but by what we do when things happen to us. Some friends th

11、ink we have had far more than our share of bad things occur, but I dont think bad things are shared.

12、hings that are quite unexpected, sometimes positive, sometimes not. So as I considered the question of “What motivates me?” and sought an answer, it struck me that I simply refuse to be defeated.

18、 won a silver medal in a mens luge (無舵雪橇) singles event at 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, South Korea equaling the best finish ever for any member of the US Olympic luge team. In the luge, competitors lie flat, feet first, on a small sled (雪橇). They can travel around an icy track at speeds up to

19、140 kilometers an hour. The riders control the sleds speed by changing the position of their feet or by moving their shoulders.So why did the US luge team win a medal at the Pyeongchang Olympics? Most credit must go to Chris Mazdzer himself. The American said his win was a product of 16 years of pre

20、paration and intense training. But another reason for Mazdzers success could have been the 3-D printing technology, which his team used to make its equipment.The term 3-D is short for three dimensional, meaning an object with length, width and height. In 3-D printing, 3-D models are first created as

21、 files, or documents, on a computer. The printer then uses a substance (物質(zhì)) like plastic or metal to create physical objects. The process involves making one layer of material at a time until the objects reach full form.The US luge team worked with an American company called Stratasys on the designi

22、ng and manufacturing process for the sleds. First, the company made a scan, or image, of the body of every member of the luge team. Then, 3-D printing technology was used to create tools for making molds (模子) in the shape of Olympians on top of a sled. The process of designing and tooling sled parts

23、 is highly complex and can take several weeks. Officials from the US luge team say 3-D printing can greatly simplify the process, speeding up the production of parts.Jon Owen, says the use of 3-D printing has made the team more competitive. It helps the team “continuously adjust designs and run the

24、sleds on the track much faster than traditional processes,” he said. He added that the technology also provides a way to perfectly fit each rider to the sled, while cutting production time and costs.8. According to the author, what mainly contributed to Mazdzers winning the medal?A. His own great ef

25、forts.B. His using a new technique.C. The cooperation with his luge team.D. The US Olympic luge teams encouragement.9. To make the sleds for the team, what did the company have to do? A. To create tools for making sled parts.B. To take some photos of the members first.C. To create molds according to

26、 the members bodies.D. To ask the Olympians to be present for several weeks.10. From the last paragraph we learn that 3-D printing most probably _.A. saves plenty of competitors training timeB. helps competitors achieve their full potentialC. requires great skills of riders to fit the trackD. allows

27、 riders to change their sleds continuously11. What is the text mainly about? A. How 3-D printing usually works.B. How we take advantage of 3-D printing.C. How the US luge team performed this year.D. How 3-D printing helped Team US go for gold.DThe Dunning-Kruger effect is a type of cognitive bias (偏

28、見) in which people believe that they are smarter and more capable than they really are. Essentially, low ability people do not possess the skills needed to recognize their own incompetence. The combination of poor self-awareness and low cognitive ability leads them to overestimate their own capabili

29、ties. This phenomenon is something you have likely experienced in real life, perhaps at a holiday family gathering. Throughout the course of the meal, a member of your extended family begins spouting off on a topic, boldly announcing that he is correct and that everyone elses opinion is stupid, unin

30、formed, and just plain wrong. It may be plainly evident to everyone that this person has no idea what he is talking about, but he talks continuously, blithely oblivious (忘乎所以) to his own ignorance.The effect is named after researchers David Dunning and Justin Kruger, two social psychologists. They f

31、ound incompetent people are not only poor performers, they are also unable to accurately assess and recognize the quality of their own work. These low performers were also unable to recognize the skill and competence levels of other people, which is part of the reason why they consistently view them

32、selves as better, more capable, and more knowledgeable than others.This is the reason why students who earn failing scores on exams sometimes feel that they deserved a much higher score. They overestimate their own knowledge and ability and are incapable of seeing the poorness of their performance.“

33、In many cases, the incompetent are often blessed with an inappropriate confidence, encouraged by something that feels to them like knowledge.” Dunning and his colleagues have also performed experiments where they ask respondents if they are familiar with terms related to subjects including politics,

34、 biology, physics, and geography. Along with genuine concepts, they added completely made-up terms. In one such study, approximately 90 percent of respondents claimed that they had at least some knowledge of the made-up terms. So what can you do to gain a more realistic assessment of your own abilit

35、ies? Instead of assuming you know all there is to know about a subject, keep digging deeper. Once you gain greater knowledge of a topic, the more likely you are to recognize how much there is still to learn. Another effective strategy involves asking others for constructive criticism. While it can s

36、ometimes be difficult to hear, such feedback can provide valuable insights into how others perceive your abilities. Even as you learn more and get feedback, it can be easy to only pay attention to things that confirm what you think you already know. In order to minimize this confirmation bias, keep

37、challenging your beliefs and expectations and seek out information that challenges your ideas.12. What can we learn about the Dunning-Kruger effect from the first paragraph?A. The Dunning-Kruger effect is rare for us to confirm.B. Incompetent people can be blind to their own ignorance.C. Ignorance l

38、eads people to underestimate their own abilities.D. Poor self-awareness and low cognitive ability have a close connection.13. According to the Dunning-Kruger effect, what do incompetent people tend to do?A. Underestimate their own skill levels.B. Feel more realistic about their competence.C. Recogni

39、ze their own mistakes and lack of skills.D. Fail to recognize the genuine skill of other people.14. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. The meaningless terms may cause respondents to feel ashamed.B. The participants pretended to know what they actually didnt know.C. The aim of the experiments w

40、as to assess how smart the participants were. D. Most of the respondents claimed they were unfamiliar with the make-up terms.15. Which is the way to overcome the Dunning-Kruger Effect?A. Ask people for helpful feedbacks. B. Minimize the bias and challenges.C. Assume that you know everything. D. Gain

41、 confidence and trust yourself. 第二節(jié) (共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。When to Say “No” to Antibiotics (抗生素)Although they know that antibiotics kill only bacteria but not viruses and the obvious risk of antibiotic overuse to personal health, many doctors still use antibiotic

42、s when the drugs are not necessary. 16 In some serious cases, the patients with them failed to respond to any medical treatment and died within days. Therefore, several medical organizations have tried to correct antibiotic misuse by explaining when the drugs are not needed. Ear DiseasesEaraches acc

43、ount for over half of ear related diseases for children. Most earaches gradually heal with no antibiotic in days, especially in children two and older. 17 In severe cases or when children under two years old experience moderate to severe pain, antibiotics might be required.Eye DiseasesDoctors often

44、use antibiotic eye drops after treating related diseases. Macular Degeneration, for example, is an eye disease generally treated with injections or laser operation. But those drops are rarely needed after such procedures and can even damage patients eyes.Lung DiseasesFor older patients, particularly

45、 those who live in long-term care centers, doctors need to use antibiotics when a routine test finds bacteria in lung. 18 Throat Diseases 19 Therefore, antibiotics shouldnt be widely used in treatments for such diseases. Only less than one third of strep throats are bacterial. If you suspect bacteri

46、al throat, get tested to find out for sure. Another report, conducted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, also indicates that antibiotic misuse affects at least two million people annually, killing more than 23,000. 20 Therefore, health experts urge all doctors in practice to fol

47、low the above instructions. A. Most throat diseases are caused by viruses.B. Just wait two days to see if symptoms disappear.C. But if the result proves normal, the drugs wont help. D. In this case, antibiotics are the most effective for the old.E. Most doctors already know it, so they say no to ant

48、ibiotics.F. Under such circumstances, limiting antibiotic misuse is a must.G. This may develop the “superbugs”, which cant be easily controlled. 第二部分英語知識運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分） 第一節(jié) 完形填空（共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。Just several days ago, a violent storm hit our c
