Well prepared, I had ev

27、erything in my favour fuel for five hours, charts in order, my flight plan on my lap, and a beautiful clear sky.I was wrong.I had heard about Alberta Clippers coming out of Canada. I knew all about them how an entire air mass was streaming along at over sixty miles an hour.That morning, the Weather

28、Briefer informed me that an Alberta Clipper was going over Chicago about the time I got to the airport. Chicago was some 400 miles from my destination not a factor, or so I thought. That was the first hint I missed.The controller called and asked if I wanted to adjust my flight plan. I did the check

29、 and everything was in the green. So I told him no. Twenty minutes later the controller called again asking whether I wanted to adjust my flight plan. I checked everything. All was fine. I ignored that hint. I was fooled by the smooth air and limited experience with a rapidly moving air mass that wa

30、s not changing violently. The Alberta Clipper was clipping along.The first blast of turbulence （氣流） struck my plane. I got slammed into the roof, and then slammed sideways hitting the window with such force up my nose that I started bleeding.After a 2-hour flight of 100 miles, I realized fuel was no

31、w an issue. So was landing. I called Flight Following. We figured out the airport I could land.The engine stopped. So did my heart. There is no quiet as quietly stunning as this one at such an altitude. I had run out of fuel in the left tank, and only a little in my right tank. The engine quit for a

32、 second time. I declared an emergency. I was told that I might get another few minutes of fuel if I gently banked the airplane. Luckily, it worked. Then, the engine quit for the last time. I was a glider now. I made a long lazy spiral descent. Down I went. I stopped at the very end of the runway.I m

33、ade so many mistakes, missed so many clues, and showed my ignorance so much that I beat myself up over and over again in my mind. I learned textbook descriptions of Alberta Clippers and real-life experience with one are totally different. I will never forget the sound of that silence.I flew home the

34、 next day. Older. Wiser. Humbler.

I slightly banked my airplane and made a landing.B. dcebaD. cdbaeB. a narrow escapeD. a serious accidentA. dcbeaC. cdabe37 . The passage describesA . a rewarding trainingC. a painful explorationThere is certainly evidence that

37、actors experience a blending of their real self withtheir assumed characters. For instance, Benedict Cumberbatch said,“ My mum says I'm muchmore impatient with her when I'm filming Sherlock.”Mark Seton, a researcher at the University of Sydney, has even coined the term“posdramatic stress dis

38、order " to describe the lasting effects experienced by actors who lose themselves in a role." Actors may often prolong habits of the characters they have embodied,he writes.A recent finding doesn't involve acting, and it indicates that merely spending some time thinking about another p

39、erson seemed to rub off on the volunteers ' sense of self led by Meghan Meyer at Princeton University. Across several studies, these researchers asked volunteers to first rate their own personalities, memories or physical attributes, and then to perform the same task from the perspective of anot

40、her person. For instance, they might scorethe emotionality of various personal memories, and then rate how a friend or relative wouldhave experienced those same events.After taking the perspective of another, the volunteers scored themselves once again: theconsistent finding was that their self-know

41、ledge was now changed their self-scores hadshifted to become more similar to those they'd given for someone else. For instance, if theyhad initially said the trait term“ confident ” was only moderately related to themselves andthen rated the term as being strongly related to a friend's perso

42、nality, when they came torescore themselves, they now tended to see themselves as more confident. Remarkably, thismorphing of the self with another was still apparent even if a 24-hour gap was left between taking someone else's perspective and re-rating oneself.“ By simplythinking about another

43、person, we may adapt our self to take the shape ofthat person ” said Meyer and her colleagues. That our sense of self should have this qualitymight be a little discouraging, especially for anyone who has struggled to establish a firmsense of identity. Yet there is an optimistic message here, too. Th

44、e challenge of improvingourselves or at least seeing ourselves in a more positive light might be a little easier thanwe thought. By roleplaying or acting out the kind of person we would like to become, ormerely by thinking about and spending time with people who embody the kind of attributeswe would

45、 like to see in ourselves, we can find that our sense of self changes in desirableways.“ As each of us chooses who to befriend, who to model, and who to ignore” write Meyerand her colleagues, “ we must make these decisions aware of how they shape not only the fabric of our social networks, but even

46、our sense of who we are.”38 The first two paragraphs mainly .A state that acting requires skillsB explain the stress that an actor facesC show that a role leaves a mark on the actorD stress the importance of devoting oneself to a role39 What does the underlined phrase“ rub off on ” in Paragraph 3 pr

47、obably mean?A Influence.B Strengthen.C Confuse.D Determine.40 According to the study, taking the perspective of another person .A brings changes to one's self-knowledgeB motivates one to better understand himselfC helps people deal with their identity problemsD produces temporary effects on one&

48、#39;s character41 What is the significance of the study?A It offers instructions on making friends.B It proposes a means to improve ourselves.C It gives advice on adjusting one's emotions.D It presents a way to deal with stress disorder.In college, I was taught an elegant theory of chemical comb

49、ination based on excess electrons going into holes in the orbital shell of a neighbouring atom. But what about diatomic compounds like oxygen gas? Don't ask; students aren't ready to know. In physics, in biology, in any other science classes, students frequently get that answer too.It s time

50、 to trust students to handle doubt and diversity in science. Actually, students are starting to act. They have shamed their seniors into including more diverse contributors as faculty members and role models. Young scholars rudely ask their superiors why they fail to address the extinction crises cl

51、arified by their research. The inherited authoritarian political structures of science education are becoming lame but still remain largely unchanged from the old school days.A narrow, rigid education does not prepare anyone for the complexities of scientific research, applications and policy. If we

52、 discourage students from inquiring into the real nature of scientific truths, or exploring how society shapes the questions that researchers ask how can we prepare them to maintain public trust in science in our -truth ” world?“Dipvoesrstity and doubt produce creativity: we must make room for them,

53、 and stop guiding future scientists into narrow specialties that value technique over thought.In science, even foundational building blocks can be questioned. The unifying patternsof the periodic table are now questioned under closer examination. Some scientists nowwonder whe ther the concept of bio

54、logical“ species ” contributes more confusion than insight,and whether it should therefore be abandoned. However, such a decision would affect conservation policy, in which identification of endangered species is crucial so it is not just an issue for basic science.Science students generally remain

55、unaware that concepts such as elements and speciesare contested or are even contestable. In school, college and beyond, curricula highlight the technical and hide the reflective. Public arguments among scientists often presume that every problem has just one solution.Nonetheless, uncertain advice on

56、 complex issues should be a warning that, from a future perspective, today's total scientific consensus on some policy issue might have been the result of stubbornness, a conflict of interest or worse. Just as a healthy democracy accommodates dissent and dissonance, the collective consciousness

57、of science would do well to embrace doubt and diversity. This could start with teaching science as a great, flawed, ongoing human achievement, rather than as a collection of cut-and-dried eternal （永久的） truths.I recall a legendary chemistry professor who was not skilful at getting classroom demonstrations to work but discussing what went wrong helped his students to thrive. A mathematician friend let pupils discuss every statement in the textbook until all were satisfied. They did very well in exams, and taught themselves
