16、D. Choose the best answer and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneWhat did you study at university? If it was something along the lines of law or business, you might want to look away now. Thats because according to new research, which has found a link between our university subjects and

17、 our personalities, you have selfish, uncooperative tendencies and are not very in touch with your feelings. On the plus side, youre probably the life and soul of a party, the findings suggest.Researchers analyzed data from more than 13,000 university students who were involved in 12 separate studie

18、s. From this, they discovered a correlation between the “Big Five” major personality traits and the subjects they were enrolled on.For example, those studying law, economics, political science and medicine tended to be much more outgoing than those taking other subjects, the study found. But when it

19、 came to “agreeableness”the tendency towards being helpful, generous and consideratethe lawyers scored particularly low, as did business and economics students.Arts and humanities students， as well as those studying psychology and politics scored highly for openness, meaning they were curious, imagi

20、native and in touch with their inner feelings, while economists, engineers, lawyers and scientists scored comparatively low. However, the arts and humanities students also tended to be less conscientious and more nervous, typically exhibiting signs of anxiety and moodiness. Psychology students were

21、not far behind arts and humanities students for these traits.Study author Anna Vedel， from the University of Aarhus in Denmark, said she was surprised by the results. “The effect sizes show that the differences found are not trivial, far from,”she said. “On the more humorous side they do confirm our

22、 more or less prejudicial stereotypes of the disturbed psychologist, the withdrawn natural scientist， the cynical economist.”And she said that the findings could help those school pupils who currently have no idea what to study at university, as well as helping academics to plan their lectures.“Im n

23、ot arguing that these results should play a major role in either guidance or selection, but it might provide some inspiration for students that are in doubt about study choices and want to make a choice based on more than abilities, for example,” said Dr Vedel. “Or teachers might better understand t

24、heir student population.”21.The first paragraph implies that law or business students may.A.be amused by the researchB.be interested in the researchC.dislike the researchD.enjoy the research22.According to the research, law students scored particularly low in the trait of.A.generosityB.opennessC.anx

25、ietyD. selfishness23.The word “conscientious” (Para.4) probably means “”.A.moodyB.sensitiveC.curiousD.careful24.Anna Vedel stated that the research.A.confirmed the link between personality and professionB.showed that the differences were far from significantC.was not reliable because of its prejudic

26、ial observationD.did not have enough samples to support its findings25.According to Anna Vedel, the research may help.A.students make wise choices in finding jobsB.teachers understand their students betterC.students make presentations more academicallyD.school pupils go to better universitiesPassage

27、 TwoAlphaGos victory over Go（圍棋） champion Lee Sedol reportedly shocked artificial intelligence experts, who thought such an event was 10 to 15 years away. But if the timing was a surprise, the outcome was not. On the contrary, it was inevitable and entirely foreseeable.Playing complex games is preci

28、sely what computers do supremely well. Just as they beat the world champions at checkers(跳棋)and then chess, they were destined to beat the champion at Go. Yet I dont believe, as some do, that human defeats like this one presage an era of mass unemployment in which awesomely able computers leave most

29、 of us with nothing to do. Advancing technology will profoundly change the nature of highvalue human skills and that is threatening, but we arent doomed.The skills of deep human interaction, the abilities to manage the exchanges that occur only between people, will only become more valuable. Three o

30、f these skills stand out: The first, the foundation of the rest, is empathy, which is more than just feeling someone elses pain. Its the ability to perceive what another person is thinking or feeling, and to respond in an appropriate way.The second is creative problemsolving in groups. Research on g

31、roup effectiveness shows that the key isnt team cohesion or motivation or even the smartest members IQ; rather, its the social sensitivity of the members, their ability to read one another and keep anyone from dominating.The third critical ability, somewhat surprisingly, is storytelling, which has n

32、ot traditionally been valued by organizations. Charts, graphs and data analysis will continue to be important, but thats exactly what technology does so well. To change peoples minds or inspire them to act, tell them a story.These skills, though basic to our humanity, are fundamentally different fro

33、m the skills that have been the basis of economic progress for most of human history, such as logic， knowledge and analysis, which we learned from textbooks and in classrooms. By contrast, the skills of deep human interaction address the often irrational reality of how human beings behave, and we fi

34、nd them not in textbooks but inside ourselves. As computers master ever more complexity, thats where well find the source of our continued value.26.According to the author, AlphaGos victory.A.could have happened earlierB.came as a pleasant surpriseC.was an expected resultD.was more a matter of luck2

35、7.The word “presage” (Para. 2) is closest in meaning to “”.A.surviveB.sufferC.inventD.predict28.What is the authors attitude towards the human future in face of technology?A.Unclear.B.Confused.C.Worried.D.Optimistic.29.Which of the following is the most fundamental to human interaction?A.Social sens

36、itivity of group members to understand each other.B.Strong ability to share peoples feelings and respond.C.Team spirit to make sure that everyone is involved.D.Inspirational storytelling to motivate people to act.30.According to the author, the skills of deep human interaction.A.are the source of tr

37、ue human values in the futureB.can work with knowledge to make the world betterC.are similar to the skills of human logic and analysisD.can be learned from textbooks and in classroomsPassage ThreeLast year, I went WWOOFing (Willing Workers on Organic Farms) at a beautiful organic farm in La Runion.

38、With WWOOFing, volunteers exchange their time and work for food and accommodation. I slept in a cabin in the woods with hedgehogs （刺猬）digging about in the bushes, all different coloured birds singing in the morning and endless rows of palm trees offering shade from the sun.For me, one of the best wa

39、ys to get to know a new place is to work with the land, live with the locals and share meals together. This is why I absolutely love WWOOFing. It has got to be one of the best ways to travel. It is a mutually beneficial exchange where everyone involved prioritises people and environment above profit

40、. You get the time and space to deepen a connection with local communities and nature.There is a lot to learn and each farm has its own unique way of doing things, depending on the environment, climate and soil. At the farm in La Runion we planted palm trees to harvest the core of the trunk which ca

41、n be eaten in salads. Before staying with the farm I had only eaten heart of palm from cans which were nothing in comparison to the real thing, fresh from the ground. When potting up the very beginnings of the palm trees, I felt grateful to be a part of the start of the trees cycle. I was filled wit

42、h awe that something so small could grow into something so big and strong.We also did lots of weeding, which helped me to get to know all kinds of different plants, to be able to identify which ones we could use as herbs/medicine/in salads and which were seen as uneatable. I also got to harvest pine

43、apples and guava fruit (番石榴)to make jams which will be sold at the local market.Of course, not everyone is able to travel far away into the field. The great thing about the skillshare philosophy behind WWOOFing is that its something we can all do from our own backyard. The focus shifts from money to

44、 how we can best support each other in our communities. A fair exchange can make a big difference in the world.31.WWOOFing enables volunteers to.A.get food and shelter for their workB.travel around La Runion for freeC.tell the differences between various birdsD.have close contact with wild animals32

45、.The author found his farm life in La Runion quite.A.awfulB.rewardingC.comfortableD.difficult33.The author did all of the following on the organic farm EXCEPT.A.removing weedsB.planting palm treesC.harvesting fruitsD.collecting vegetables34.The philosophy of WWOOFing is to.A.improve local environmen

46、tB.make locals live betterC.unite different communitiesD.advocate a fair exchange35.This passage is mainly about.A.the development of WWOOFingB.a local WWOOFing communityC.a charming WWOOFing experienceD.the system of WWOOFingPassage FourExperts say distracted walking is a growing problem, as people

47、 of all ages become more dependent on electronic devices for personal and professional matters. They also note pedestrian deaths have been rising in recent years. In ， 11% of all US deaths involved pedestrians, but that number rose to 15% in .The rise in deaths coincides with states introducing bill

48、s that target pedestrians. Some states, such as Hawaii, Arkansas, Illinois, Nevada and New York, continue to introduce legislation every year.The measure recently introduced by New Jersey assembly woman Pamela Lampitt would ban walking while texting and prohibit pedestrians on public roads from usin

49、g electronic communication devices unless they are handsfree. Violators would face fines of up to $50， 15day imprisonment or both, which is the same penalty as jaywalking (亂穿馬路). Half of the fine would be allocated to safety education about the dangers of walking while texting, said Lampitt.Some see

50、 the proposal as an unnecessary government overreach, while others say they understand Lampitts reasoning. But most agree that people need to be made aware of the issue. “Distracted pedestrians, like distracted drivers, present a potential danger to themselves and drivers on the road,” Lampitt said.

51、 “An individual crossing the road distracted by their smartphone presents just as much danger to motorists as someone jaywalking and should be held, at minimum, to the same penalty.”The main question raised about the measure, though, is whether it can be enforced consistently by police officers who

52、usually have more pressing matters to deal with. Some feel that rather than imposing a new law， the state should focus on distractedwalking education. Lampitt said the measure was needed to stop and penalize “risky behavior”. She cited a National Safety Council report that showed distractedwalking i

53、ncidents involving cellphones accounted for an estimated 11,101 injuries from to .The study found a majority of those injured were female and most were 40 or younger. Talking on the phone was the most prevalent activity at the time of injury, while texting accounted for 12%. Nearly 80% of the injuri

54、es occurred as the result of a fall, while 9% occurred from the pedestrian striking a motionless object.36.This passage is mainly concerned with.A.the difficulty in enforcing road regulationsB.rising deaths caused by distracted walking C.the dangers of jaywalking on busy streetsD.distracted walking

55、involving smartphones37.The states introducing bills that target pedestrians.A.have benefited from the bills B.find it hard to carry them outC.have been promoting the legislation D.will have fewer deaths of pedestrians38.According to the measure proposed by Lampitt, walking while texting would.A.bec

56、ome illegalB.involve safety educationC.be blamed publiclyD.incur a fine of over $5039.Lampitt reasons that distracted pedestrians are as dangerous as.A.motorists B.speeding driversC.jaywalkersD.drunk drivers40.Which of the following would the author of the passage most probably agree with?A.Males ar

57、e more vulnerable to distractedwalking injuries.B.Police officers are unhappy with the proposed law.C.Safety education is more important than penalty.D.Rising distractedwalking incidents call for real attention.Section BDirections: In this section, you are required to read one quoted blog and the co

58、mments on it. The blog and comments are followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers A， B， C and D. Choose the best answer and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.The saying “Clothes Make the Man” dates back some 400 years and it refers to the fact that when peop

59、le see a welldressed person, they assume that person is a professional, capable，and (especially in the old days) rich. Therefore, you had to dress like how you wanted to be perceived, what you wanted to eventually achieve. Fast forward 400 years, lots of folks still think the same way. But does it r

60、eally make a difference?I happen to be one of those who do not put faith in the old saying. I suppose I might be in the minority but I am a member of an elite club with the likes of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates in my camp.Perception is not reality; perception is halfway to discovering reality.
