I never fully understood that stereotype until two months ago,when I left Canada for a 4-month period in a lab in France. On my first day,Pierre, a Ph.D. student,tapped me on my shoulder and asked："Coffee？" I nodded and followed him to the common room, where other grad students were filing in. I sat there,cautiously sipping the bitter liquid and trying hard not to reveal my uncultured tastes, while lab chatter filled the air.Coffee breaks are a ceremonial part of lab culture here. The chatter sometimes turns to serious scientific topics. But mostly,the meet-ups offer a chance to wind down, to share stories about life inside and outside the lab and to sympathize with people who understand what you're going through.The lighthearted atmosphere and sense of community is a welcome contrast to my life in Canada,where I spent most of my workdays in isolation. I went into the lab each morning with set goals for my day. At lunch,I'd keep my eyes glued to my computer while I fed forkfuls of salad into my mouth,trying to power through my to-do list. For 9 months, I struggled to figure out why I couldn't exactly copy the results of another study. I didn't want to trouble my advisor too much. I was also hesitant to ask my labmates for help.How much we were missing! Researchers need community because good ideas don't just come from reading literature and thinking deep thoughts. It's helpful to bounce ideas off others, and, to have a venue to share the day-to-day ups and downs of life.Would coffee breaks have solved all my problems Probably not. But I think sharing ideas with my peers would have helped solve my research dilemma. My time in France has taught me that it's important to create space for organic conversations about lab life. A scientist's life can feel isolating,but it's not necessarily so when you're connected to a supportive community.4.How did the author feel when he drank coffee for the first time in France？______A. A little nervous.B. Very happy.C. Somewhat excited.D. Quite curious.5.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about______A. Cultural ceremonies in France.B. Various topics of the chatter.C. The benefits of coffee breaks.D. Lab culture in French style.6.What was the author's life like back in Canada？______A. Comfortable and fulfilled.B. Busy and lonely.C. Tense but satisfactory.D. Boring but healthy.7.Why does the author write this passage？______A. To introduce the coffee break in Europe.B. To explain the difference between cultures.C. To recall his personal experience in France.D. To convey the importance of a supportive circle.CA robot with a sense of touch may one day feel pain,both its own physical pain and sympathy for the pain of its human companions. Such touchy-feely robots are still far off, but advances in robotic touch-sensing are bringing that possibility closer to reality.Sensors set in soft,artificial skin that can detect both a gentle touch and a painful strike have been hooked up to a robot that can then signal emotions, Asada reported February 15 at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. This artificial "pain nervous system," as Asada calls it, may be a small building block for a machine that could ultimately experience pain. Such a feeling might also allow a robot to "sympathize" with a human companion's suffering.Asada, an engineer at Osaka University, and his colleagues have designed touch sensors that reliably pick up a range of touches. In a robot system named Affetto, an realistic looking child'shead, these touch and pain signals can be converted to emotional facial expressions.A touch-sensitive, soft material, as opposed to a rigid metal surface,allows richer interactions between a machine and the world, says neuroscientist Kingson Man of the University of Southern California. Artificial skin "allows the possibility of engagement in truly intelligent ways".Such a system, Asada says, might ultimately lead to robots that can recognize the pain of others, a valuable skill for robots designed to help care for people in need, the elderly, for instance. But there is an important distinction between a robot that responds in a predictable way to a painful strike and a robot that's able to compute an internal feeling accurately,says Damasio,a neuroscientist also at the University of Southern California. A robot with sensors that can detect touch and pain is "along the lines of having a robot, for example, that smiles when you talk to it," Damasio says. "It's a device for communication of the machine to a human." While that's an interesting development,"it's not the same thing" as a robot designed to compute some sort of internal experience, he says.8.What do we know about the "pain nervous system"？______A. It is named Affetto by scientists.B. It is a set of complicated sensors.C. It is able to signal different emotions.D. It combines sensors and artificial skin.9.What does the underlined word "converted" in Paragraph 3 probably mean______A. Delivered.B. Translated.C. Attached.D. Adapted.10.What does Damasio consider as an interesting development？______A. Robots can smile when talked to.B. Robots can talk to human beings.C. Robots can compute internal feelingsD. Robots can detect pains and respond accordingly.11.What can be the best title of the text______A. Machines Become EmotionalB. Robots Inch to Feeling PainC. Human Feelings Can Be FeltD. New Devices Touch Your HeartDOn a scale of 0 to 10.，I'd say my happiness ranks at about 6. I'm glad to know I'm a 6，because, as a famous management saying puts it,"You can't manage what you don't measure." If youwant to improve an aspect of your life, you need to be able to assess progress toward your goal - and that means measuring it.The goal of this column is to help you manage and improve your happiness. A number of people have asked me whether quantitative happiness measures are really accurate and reliable - and it's a reasonable question. So let's take a look behind the curtain. But not just for intellectual curiosity；as you will see,understanding the measurement of happiness can itself make you better at improving your own well-being - and avoid some critical errors.The best method scientists have to understand with confidence how something affects something else is a randomized, controlled trial. Think of the tests currently under way to find a vaccine for COVID-19. They take a long time because the drug companies with trial vaccines are conducting experiments that randomly assign people to a treatment group they get the vaccine）and a control group（they get a placebo），and then waiting to seif the drug is effective and safe by comparing the two groups after enough time has passed.In the research on happiness,this usually isn't possible. Want to know if people are truly happiest in Denmark, as some studies suggest,and test it with a randomized experiment？You would need to randomly take two groups out of their homes,move one group to Copenhagen, and the other to,say,Dayton,Ohio- but make sure they think it might be Copenhagen and never get the truth. Follow up a few years later to see who is happiest. Obviously, that's ridiculous. So with randomized controlled trials largely not available to them, happiness researchers instead rely on self-reported happiness surveys, where large groups of people anonymously report their levels of life satisfaction. Then, the researchers use fairly complex statistical techniques to mimic（模拟）a controlled experiment in order to show how different aspects of people's lives affect - or at least are associated with - their happiness.12.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 1 probably refer to？______A. An aspect of life.B. One's goal.C. Happiness.D. Progress.13.Why is the test of COVID-19 vaccine mentioned in Paragraph 3______A. To introduce a latest medical breakthrough.B. To show the difficulty in finding the vaccine.C. To illustrate the process of randomized experiments.D. To prove the impossibility of randomized researches on happiness14.Why is it hard to conduct research on happiness with randomized experiments？______A. The experiment takes a long time.B. It is difficult to analyze the data collected.C. It is impossible to carry out the process strictly.D. The subjects are unwilling to share their feelings15.Where is this text taken from？______A. A magazine.B. A diary.C. A science report.D. A textbook.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Open a book by any philosopher and you'll probably read that a meaningful life has to involve achieving something difficult. That's because many philosophers are perfectionists when it comes to the meaning of life. It's not just philosophers,either. Perfectionism is one of the main reasons people tend to believe their lives are meaningless. （1）______ .If they aren't doing something absolutely amazing,then life has no meaning.（2）______ .So the conclusion is obvious：most lives are meaningless. Right？Not really. Dig a little deeper,and perfectionism falls apart. Actually you don't need to be a perfectionist about the meaning of life. Life would be fantastic if everything was perfect. But something doesn't need to be perfect to be fantastic.（3）______ .For one,it's pretty inconsistently applied most of the time.People who are perfectionists about the meaning of life often don't apply it to other areas of their lives.（4）______ .For example,perfectionists don't think they're a failure if they don't get a hundred percent on every test. So isn't it also absurd to apply that kind of standard to the meaning of lifeIt doesn't end there. The demands that perfectionists place on themselves and others are actually really unrealistic. And that means they can only lead to disappointment.（5）______ .It would be similarly odd to call one of your friends a huge failure because he can't achieve as much in a day as Superman. But that's exactly the logic perfectionism applies when it claims that our lives have to be extraordinary in some way to have meaning.A. They see life as all-or-nothing.B. We don't expect a dog to drive a car.C. This leads to lots of double standards.D. You're unlikely to be satisfied with any result.E. And there are actually a few problems with perfectionism.F. However, most of us aren't an Einstein or a Mother Teresa.G. They'd probably dismiss the ideas like that as absurd, in fact.16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G19. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G20. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G三、完形填空（本大题共20小题，共30.0分）Sophie,13，won the 2019 New Zealand's "Think kind" competition for student "I（1）______ a beach clean-up,because it really（2）______ me that marine（海洋的）life is hurt by thoughtless decisions of humans."Sophie saw（3）______ on the sea floor while snorkeling（徒手潜泳）."It was the first time I'd seen marine life （4）______ among plastics."It was the trigger of her act."We weren't taking enough （5）______ .Everyone needs to do their （6）______ ，otherwise we're going to （7）______ our planet."Sophie turned to media to get her （8）______ out and ask for volunteers at the clean-up.

If a charity receives a high ranking, it must be effective at meeting its mission. Therefore, we pick some international charities that rank A+ in terms of financial health, accountability, and transparency.International Children’s FundThe mission of the International Children’s Fund (ICF) is to come to the aid of needy children worldwide since 1987. This charity distributes life-saving food, clothing, and medicineand it supports the construction of orphanages, schools, churches and vocational training centers across the African continent. ICF uses an impressive 99.7 percent of its funding for projects.Direct ReliefWith a history of over 7 decades, Direct Relief (DR) is a humanitarian organization with a mission to improve the health and lives of people affected by poverty and emergencies. DR’s assistance programs focus on emergency preparedness and disaster relief, disease prevention and treatment of the most vulnerable populations. DR uses a 99.4 percent of its funding for programs.MAP InternationalSince its foundation in 1954, MAP has served millions of people. Its mission is to provide medicines and health supplies to those in need around the world so they might experience life to the fullest. At present, MAP is responding to recent emergencies that include areas hit by earthquakes or hurricanes, as well as helping refugees. Contributions go a long way here; a $25 donation provides $1,500 of medicine. A notable 99 percent of its funding is used for aid programs.Books for AfricaBooks for Africa organization collects, sorts, ships and distributes books that are donated by publishers, schools, libraries, organizations, and individuals. V olunteers choose books that are age and subject appropriate. Enough books for entire classes are sent. To date, 41 million books have been distributed to once-empty libraries and rural schools in every African country. This organization, founded 35 years ago, also uses 99 percent of its funding for its missions. 21．What does MAP focus on?A．Building schools.B．Improving people’s fitness.C．Preventing natural disasters.D．Supplying studying materials.22．Which charity has the longest history?A．Direct Relief.B．Books for Africa.C．MAP International.D．International Children’s Fund.23．What do the listed charities have in common?A．The people who founded them.B．The region they offer help to.C．The organization that sponsors them.D．The reputation they enjoy worldwide.Chinese ink paintings once were on the edge of being forgotten-at least according to a paper of Li Xiaoshan, a postgraduate art student.At the time, many Chinese painting professionals passed away without finding younger artists to fill their shoes. Young artists were left on their own to find breakthroughs and define themselves as artists. While extremely exaggerated (夸张), Li’s comment sent shock waves through the Chinese painting community. Since then, many experimental painters have taken to their studios in China, creating many astonishing and inspirational ink paintings using new methods and concepts, marking an important step for the development of contemporary Chinese paintings.Shao Ge is a representative of this new form. Born to an ordinary family in Beijing in 1962, Shao was keen on traditional Chinese paintings. As a child, he spent much of his time staring at the ink masterpieces in the Palace Museum. There was an elder neighbor, who was good at Chinese painting and calligraphy. In his spare time, the kind elder talked about traditional Chinese culture to young Shao. Some years later, Shao decided to study painting after graduating from high school. After graduating in the Beijing Arts and Crafts School in 1978, Shao was sent to work at a small crafts factory. Before long, the factory went bankrupt. Shao later passed an exam and became a painter for RongBao Zhai, a famous Chinese art gallery established in 1672.This career jump allowed Shao to springboard into a lifetime of ink paintings.“At first, I just drew everything-landscapes, figures, flowers, birds, and fish,” Shao said. “But I soon found sticking to traditional thoughts and skills of Chinese paintings would be a brake on my development as a professional painter. For this reason, I decided to innovate my own style.”24．What do the underlined words “fill their shoes” mean in Paragraph 2?A．Calm them down.B．Ask them for help.C．Focus on themselves.D．Take over their roles.25．What does Paragraph 3 mainly introduce about Shao Ge?A．His journey to art.B．His family background.C．His neighbor’s influence.D．His passion for learning.26．What will be probably talked about in the next paragraph?A．People’s view of Shao’s painting.B．Shao’s impact on Chinese painting.C．The development of traditional painting.D．Shao’s successful experiment in painting.27．In which column of a newspaper can this text probably be found?A．Fashion.B．Feature.C．Education.D．Literature.Some Italian architects have completed the first 3D-printed home made from clay recently. It is called TECLA, which comes from “technology” and “clay”.Its founder, Mario Cucinella, points out that building homes from earth is not new. Adobe-made from a mix of earth, water and organic material-is one of the world’s earliest construction materials, known for its firmness, and bio-degradability. He hopes that its design can become a practical option to house people who lack adequate housing due to financial issues.Over the past few years, many 3D-printed homes and communities have been conceptualized, promising low construction costs. But while previous structures were built using concrete or plastic, TECLA was mainly built from soil at the site mixed with water and fibers from rice husks. Cucinella believes this approach can be adopted in different parts of the world, using whatever local materials are available, and could be particularly helpful in remote areas, where industrial construction materials are harder to come by.Printing with clay has its drawbacks. It’s a much slower process than quick-drying concrete 3D-printed homes and all-clay skyscrapers are not likely in the future. However, the use of available soil and the program’s ease of construction mean that TECLA could be well-suited toprovide housing in many different countries. It is estimated that by 2030, 3 billion people will require access to accessible and affordable residences. “You can build this kind of house in many more places when you are not dependent on some specific product,” Cucinella explained.TECLA has drawn wide attention. “I’m not in the position to say this will be the future of all houses on the planet, “Russo, another 3D-printing architect said. However, he added, “I think this revolution of 3D printing is to give people a degree of freedom in how to do things, without being connected to a big, professional industry.”28．What’s the purpose of TECLA?A．To make 3D-printed homes firmer.B．To assist in solving housing issues.C．To provide alternatives for house buyers.D．To help the poor through financial difficulty.29．What can we learn about the construction of TECLA?A．It’s quite expensive.B．It takes a shorter time.C．It’s a demanding process.D．It’s flexible in material selection.30．What is Russo’s attitude to TECLA?A．Favorable.B．Critical.C．Doubtful.D．Tolerant. 31．What’s the text mainly about?A．A design that can replace the previous patterns.B．A technology that takes the lead in architecture.C．A structure where tradition meets new technology.D．A trend where technology is coupled with architecture.In 2007 a team led by Stefan Rahmstorf compared actual observations with predictions made by theoretical models for three key climate indicators: carbon dioxide, global temperature and sea-level rise. While the predictions got CO2 levels right, they were low for real temperature and sea-level rise.Climate scientists have a surprising habit: They often underestimate the climate threat. Thearticles reporting the underestimates have been widely cited, so one might think that scientists have taken corrective steps. But recent studies of Arctic warming suggest that the problem may not have gone away. As polar ice melts because of global warming, the Arctic Ocean absorbs more heat, which causes the Arctic to warm even more. It should surprise no one that the area is warming fast. Yet scientists have been caught off-guard by just how fast the region is heating up.In 2013, a paper was published pointing out that these underestimates represent subconscious bias (偏向) caused by defensiveness. Scientists tended toward lower and misleading prediction because they did not want to be accused of making dramatic and overstressed claims. Even now scientists continue to be accused of overestimating climate risks by worrying figures which get much media attention, thus biasing their models to be unrealistically conservative.If scientists have underestimated Arctic warming, they have likely minimized amounts of permafrost (永久冻土) melting and methane (甲烷) release as well. And that could be truly dire because the permafrost holds about 1.5 billion tons of organic carbon, twice as much as now in the atmosphere. Were that carbon to be rapidly released, it could cause a picture: a runaway greenhouse effect. Whatever the cause, it’s time that scientists looked seriously at whether their measuring models continue to underestimate critical aspects of the climate problem. Low estimates can create the false impression that we have more time to fix the problem than we actually do.32．Why is Rahmstorf’s research in Paragraph 1 mentioned?A．To highlight the urgency in global warming.B．To show the inaccuracy of climate predictions.C．To state the importance of precise measurement.D．To express the difficulty in making right policies.33．Why do climate scientists always underestimate climate threats?A．They are misled by the statistics.B．Their reports have been widely cited.C．They want to avoid blame for causing anxiety.D．They aim to defend themselves from fake information.34．What does the underlined word “dire” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Disastrous.B．Confusing.C．Impressive.D．Discouraging.35．What’s the best title of this text?A．The Arctic Ocean Is Calling for HelpB．Climate Scientists Are Under FireC．The Warming Pace Is UnderestimatedD．Climate Predictions Prove Correct三、七选五Push yourselves beyond the limitsLimits are blocks between you and your success. You will face great resistance when attempting to break through the limits. It could be fear, lack of confidence, physical disabilities, and mental block. If you desire a life of success, you must face the resistance and push yourself beyond the limits. 36 Here are tips for you to succeed.37 Don’t wait for external motivation to make the first move. Discover your inner motivation! It could be a motivational video, articles, TED Talks, or quotes. Ensure it is something that fills you with passion and drive to get things done. Inspiration can push you forward.Take on a little more than you think you can. Pushing past your limits means taking on newer, harder challenges. If you’re not challenging yourself to do bigger and better things regularly, you’re only working within what you already can do. 38Work on your goals a little each day. Chances are great that you need to build your empire brick by brick. That takes time and regular effort. 39 That is, there is not a day that you don’t work on your big goals, at least a little bit. It can be fifteen minutes dedicated to doing one small thing that will get you closer to that big thing you want to accomplish.Find someone who supports you and encourages you to keep going. 40 Having someone to support you can balance out the impact of any negative thinking that may limit you. It could be a life coach, friend, parent, or your wife or husband. They can help you make the push you need to get out of your comfort zone.A．Inspire yourself.B．Rome wasn’t built in a day.C．Discover where your passion lies.D．A bit of assistance means much in facing resistance.E．One good way is to adopt the approach of “No Zero Days”.F．Failure to do so will make your goals and dreams unrealizable.G．That’s a way to stay exactly where you are and make little or no progress.四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
