Walsh was hired by Chrysler in Detroit. “That was the best decision I ever made, because if I’d gone to GM, I could have been lost in a big hurry,” Walsh said. The engineer proved his ability while making $485 a month. “I was the youngest chief engineer at Chrysler at that time,” Walsh recalled.Walsh was approached by the manager in 1976 to design a vehicle unlike any other. Walsh’s team didn’t waste time. “We designed a prototype (原型) by cutting down the big vans,” Walsh explained. But the plans Walsh led would sit on a shelf collecting dust. “We kept proving that it was workable through the prototypes,” Walsh said. Then eight years later, Chrysler’s new CEO Lee Iacocca greenlighted the project. “He thought it was a product that needed to be on the market,” Walsh said. “It was decided to produce it in 1984.” With its extra cargo (货物) space and roominess for passengers, the Chrysler minivan was an instant hit. “It became the cash cow of Chrysler Corporation,” Walsh said.After 32 years in Chrysler, Walsh retired in 1988 just four years after the first minivan was produced. “The world’s best minivans and that is true,” Walsh said. “It was a landmark vehicle.” 2024 marks the 40th anniversary of the minivan, proving good ideas get good gas mileage. The 93-year-old doesn’t take credit for the minivan. To this day Walsh sings high praise for his talentedteam.Admirably, the retired engineer helped introduce a new way of driving. “I enjoyed every minute of those jobs. That is all I have got to say,” Walsh said. “I enjoyed every minute of my career. I am very fortunate to be there at the beginning.”4．What can we infer about Walsh from paragraph 2?A．He once had the idea of working for GM.B．He wasn’t valued in the company initially.C．He joined Chrysler to design the minivan.D．He learnt engineering because he was poor. 5．What was the attitude of the CEOs before Lee Iacocca to Walsh’s prototype?A．Unclear.B．Approving.C．Tolerant.D．Dismissive. 6．Which best describes Walsh as a team leader?A．Strict.B．Modest.C．Ambitious.D．Humorous. 7．What can we learn from Walsh’s story?A．A winner is one with a great effort of will.B．Gaining success helps you become an expert.C．Your success comes from loving what you do.D．Success means getting personal desires satisfied.Can happiness be obtained — by learning about it in school? The University of Bristol’s Science of Happiness course, which launched in 2018, is helping answer that question. Not your typical college class, the innovative course features absolutely no tests or work. Instead it focuses on teaching students what the latest studies in psychology suggest really makes people happy. Now, the research team behind that class has released a new study reporting it really is possible to learn how to be happy.Thanks to their course, researchers had already established that teaching students about the latest scientific studies focusing on happiness results in a notable improvement in well-being. During this latest project, they took things a step further. Their work shows that increases in well-being among students are ultimately short-lived — unless individuals practice what’s been taught during the course for ages.“It’s like going to the gym — we can’t expect to do one class and be fit forever. Just as with physical health, we have to continuously work on our mental health, otherwise the improvementsare temporary,” explains senior study author Professor Bruce Hood. Students who took the happiness course reported a 10 to 15 percent improvement in well-being. However, only those who continued practicing what they learned during the course reported sustained improved well-being upon being surveyed again two years later. This project is the first ever to track the well-being of students who had taken a happiness course long after the class ended.“To gain more information about happiness, we’ll continue studying. What we teach is related to positive psychology interventions (干预) that take your attention away from yourself, by helping others, being with friends, or thankfulness,” Prof. Hood said. “This is the opposite of the current principle, but countless studies have shown that getting out of our own heads helps get us away from negative thinking.”Prof. Hood recently turned the course into a new book, released earlier this month. The Science of Happiness: Seven Lessons for Living Well details an evidence-informed roadmap to better well-being.8．What do we know about Science of Happiness course?A．It’s an analysis of students’ exams.B．It’s a research platform for the team.C．It’s the team’s theoretical foundation.D．It’s the collection of research processes. 9．Why does Prof. Hood mention “the gym” in paragraph 3?A．To offer a solution.B．To make a prediction.C．To illustrate an idea.D．To raise a question.10．Which of the following belongs to the current principle?A．Talking to strangers.B．Giving gifts to others.C．Spending money on oneself.D．Walking in nature with friends. 11．What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To assess a new way to study happiness.B．To show a new study result on happiness.C．To comment on a book about happiness.D．To stress the need of gaining happiness.Researchers from North Carolina State University argue that the addition of a fourth (white-colored) traffic signal would bring different traffic effects.“Our work introduced the idea of a fourth traffic signal called a ‘white phase’, which taps into the computing power of autonomous vehicles (A Vs) in order to expedite traffic at crossroads,”says Prof. Ali Hajbabaie, corresponding author of the paper. “Our research found that the more A Vs there are on the road, the more efficiently the traffic moves. You’ll see less congestion (堵塞). To be clear, this improves travel time, fuel efficiency and safety for all of the cars.”The white phase concept takes advantage of A Vs’ ability to communicate wirelessly with each other and the computers in control of traffic signals. When enough A Vs approach a crossroad, this would activate the new traffic light — the white light. While red lights mean stop, and green lights mean go, white lights will tell human drivers to simply follow the car in front of them. In other words, the white light serves as a signal. During the time, A Vs are coordinating (协调) their movement to facilitate efficient traffic flow through the crossroad. When too many vehicles approaching the crossroad are driven by human drivers instead of A Vs, the signal will return to the traditional green yellow red mode.“If at some point in the future we see almost universal adoption of A Vs, our models suggest that delays at crossroads would decrease by more than 25%,” Hajbabaie says.Study authors acknowledge governments probably won’t adopt the new concept anytime soon. “Still, we’re now taking steps to ensure that future pilot projects will be both safe and effective. We’re currently setting up a physical testbed that will allow us to experiment with this concept in the physical world — not just in a computer model,” Hajbabaie concludes. “However, the vehicles we’re using in the testbed are small enough to hold in our hands. This will help us identify challenges without the expense — and safety risk — involved with using real vehicles.”12．What does the underlined word “expedite” in paragraph 2mean?A．Work out.B．Speed up.C．Put off.D．Hold back. 13．What does paragraph 3 focus on?A．How the white phrase works.B．When the traditional signals return.C．What the white phrase brings vehicles.D．Why traffic efficiency is improved. 14．What does Hajbabaie expect of the white phrase?A．It’ll become more mature.B．It’ll reach consumers very soon.C．It’ll reduce experimental costs.D．It’ll be tested in a computer model. 15．What’s the best title for the text?A．Using White Phrase Indicates Advanced TrafficB．Fourth Traffic Signal Is Invented to Guide A VsC．Traffic Congestion Makes White Phase HappenD．Adding 4th Traffic Signal Can Ease CongestionWe often hear very bad statistics about the destruction of the Amazon. 16 One Amazonian Indian tribe (部落) every year has disappeared since 1900. Unless something is done to prevent it, the Amazon will be totally destroyed in fifty years’ time.17 Although it is being destroyed by big farmers and logging (伐木) companies, the biggest cause of its destruction is the cutting down of trees by thousands of small-scale farmers.18 They cut down trees of the rainforest to grow crops to make money. The soil of the Amazon is perfect for plants as long as there are trees. It is the trees that recycle the nutrients that make the Amazon suitable for growing food. When the farmers cut down the trees, the soil can only support crops for one or two years. 19Logging is the second biggest cause of the destruction of the rainforest. A lot of the trees are taken for firewood, charcoal, or for making furniture. Not only are these trees destroyed, but the trees around them are also destroyed to make way for the roads and tracks needed to take the wood away. Large areas of forest have also been cut down to free land for cattle farming. 20 And the ranchers (牧场主) move on. More trees will be sure to disappear because of their cattle.Most of the rainforest lies within Brazil. Fortunately, it is beginning to bring more laws to protect its rainforest.A．Again the land cannot support them for long.B．So they have to move on, and cut down more trees.C．The problem involves organizations and governments.D．The trees are often considered important to big farmers.E．Poverty forces people to leave the cities and look for land.F．An area of rainforest, the size of Belgium, is cut down annually.G．The true key factors causing damage to the rainforest is not as you imagine.二、完形填空A 6-year-old girl named Quinn Hill is being honored for what she did for her mom.Quinn’s mom, Jennifer, said that earlier this year, she was 21 .

It was founded in the late 9th century and it served as a capital seven times, most recently in 1912. Thanks to its long run as a capital in different eras, the city is home to numerous historical museums and important monuments. Visit Fez to learn more about Morocco’s history, check out its unique architecture, and experience its energetic culture.MarrakeshMarrakesh was founded in the late 11th century and it served as the capital for four different dynasties. It is now considered the No.1 tourist destination in Morocco, with visitors from all over the world coming to see its luxury imperial palaces, splendid gardens, and ancient markets and try some of the best food in this part of the world.MeknesMeknes was Morocco’s capital between 1672 and 1727. Even this short period was enough to leave a lasting mark on the city in the form of old imperial palaces, castles, and gates. The city also has plenty of other fascinating things to check out, like the Museum of Moroccan Art, several old mosques (清真寺), old markets, and nearby Roman Ruins.RabatRabat is the current capital of the country. It was founded by the Almohad dynasty in the 12th century with this purpose, although it took until 1955 for the city to claim this status officially. There are numerous historical tourist attractions to check out in Rabat, including the Mausoleum of Mohamed V, the unfinished Hassan Tower, and the Chellah Roman Ruins. Being situated at the seaside also means that you will be able to have other activities besides sightseeing.1．What is Fez famous for?A．Its luxury palaces.B．Its numerous art museums.C．Its Roman Ruins.D．Its long term as a capital.2．What can you see in both Marrakesh and Meknes?A．Old markets.B．Imperial castles.C．Ancient mosques.D．A Splendid gardens3．When was the current capital confirmed?A．In the 12th century.B．In the 17th century.C．In the 19th century.D．In the 20th century.It was a dream born in fire. Andrea Peterson was five when she and her mother were trapped on the ledge (窗台) of a burning building.“Throw the kid down!” said one of the firemen below, and little Andrea leaped into lifesaving arms and a life-long ambition: She wanted to fight fires like her rescuers did.She told that to the men who had saved her, and they laughed good-naturedly the way grown-ups do when a kid says they want to be an astronaut or a sports star. But this was back in a time when little girls weren’t even allowed to fantasize about such grand goals.“You’ll be a good mommy,” the firemen told her, “you’ll be a good teacher, maybe you’ll be a nurse, but you can never be a fireman.”And then, as it tends to do, life sidelined her dreams. She was studying for a degree in aviation (航空) technology — the only female in her class — and that’s where she met her husband, Dennis.Later, Dennis was diagnosed with cancer, and Peterson spent 31 years caring for him. At 61, she went on an ambulance ride-along. It turned out to be a life-and-death situation, and Peterson felt that long-ago childhood calling.

Yet in the U.S., many worry that this request comes across as rude. But there may be good reason for you to ban shoes indoors.A 2018 survey showed that a significant 87% of Americans report taking off their shoes while at home. 31% say they will “always” remove their shoes inside their house, while 26% say they do so “most of the time.”But when it comes to asking guests to do the same, the prevalence is much lower. Around 50% of Americans admit that they never ask guests to take off their shoes. And out of those who specifically say they always take off their own shoes at home, only 25 % said they expect that the same from their visitors.Maybe you think it’s rude to do so. Or maybe you see it as an inconvenience. Regardless of the reason for your hesitation, experts say you really should be making sure people leave their footwear at the front door. A no shoe policy can help maintain cleanliness and hygiene (卫生).According to Godoy, a cleaning expert, banning outdoor footwear can “significantly reduce” the amount of dirt being tracked indoors.Wearing shoes indoors can introduce bacteria and other stuff to your floors, which can build up over time and turn into a real problem. In fact, a major study from microbiologist Charles Gerba found that harmful bacteria such as coliform and E. coli can be detected on theoutside of 96% of shoes. These contaminants (污染物) can then be spread throughout the home when people walk around indoors with their shoes on.“Removing shoes at the door can help prevent the spread of these contaminants and promote a cleaner, healthier living environment,” says Zeeshan Afzal, a medical doctor. 8．What can be learned about the 2018 survey?A．26% of those surveyed ask guests to take off their shoes.B．31% of those surveyed take off their shoes when visiting friends.C．More than half of those surveyed tend to take off shoes at home.D．Most of those surveyed realize the benefits of taking off shoes at home.9．What does the underlined word “prevalence” probably mean?A．Popularity.B．Suggestion.C．Introduction.D．Similarity. 10．Which is the purpose of removing shoes indoors?A．To keep out bnetern B．To protect C．To meet hosts’ need D．To remove communicate11．What is the best title of the passage?A．Taking off Shoes Indoors Convenient?B．Taking off Shoes Indoors a Custom?C．Taking off Shoes Indoors a Must?D．Taking off Shoes Indoors Fashlonnble?A study conducted by Cornell University examined how the use of AI in conversations impacts the way people express themselves and view each other.The researchers have found people have more efficient conversations, use more positive language and perceive each other more positively when using an Al-enabled chat tool.However, the group also found that when participants think their partner is using more AI-suggested responses, they consider that partner as less cooperative.“I was surprised to find people tend to evaluate you more negatively simply because they suspect you’ re using AI to help compose text, regardless of whether you actually are,” said Jess Hohenstein, the lead researcher. “This illustrates the continuous overall doubt that people seem to have around AI.”For their first experiment, participants were asked to talk about a policy issue and assigned to one of three conditions: both participants can use smart replies; only oneparticipant can use smart replies; or neither participant can use smart replies. Researchers found that using smart replies increased communication efficiency, positive emotional language and positive evaluations by communication partners. On average, smart replies accounted for 14.3% of sent messages.But participants who their partners suspected of responding with smart replies were evaluated more negatively than those who were thought to have typed their own responses, consistent with common assumptions about the negative implications of AI.“While Al might be able to help you write,” Hohenstein said, “it’s altering your language in ways you might not expect, especially by making you sound more positive. This suggests that by using text-generating Al, you’re giving up some of your own personal voice.”Malte Jung, an associate professor, said, “What we observe in this study is the impact that Al has on social dynamics and some of the unintended consequences that could result from integrating AI in social contexts. This suggests that whoever controls the algorithm(算法) may have influence on people’s interactions, language and insights into each other.”12．What is the text mainly about?A．Methods of using AI in conversations.B．Efficiency of using AI in conversations.C．Convenience of using AI in conversations.D．Impacts of using AI in conversations.13．How do the researchers draw their conclusion?A．By analyzing figures.B．By making use of AI.C．By making experiments.D．By completing questionnaires. 14．Which statement does Hohenstein agree with?A．Al always expresses in ways you expect.B．Algorithm will never influence people’s insights.C．Trust can be affected by using AI in conversation.D．You will regain your voice by using AI in conversation.15．How will a person feel about suspecting his partner’s using smart replies? A．Nervous.B．Uncomfortable.C．Excited.D．Puzzled.二、七选五We are now having face-to-face chats with friends instead of talking online. But have you ever been in a conversation that you wish you could run away from? ____16____A research team surveyed 806 participants about a recent conversation they had with someone close to them. The participants were asked about the actual length and their expected length of the conversation, and how long they thought the other person wanted to talk for.According to the team’s paper published in the journal PNAS, about one-third of the conversation length was unwanted. ____17____ On average, they continued talking for 3.87 minutes before they sensed that the other speaker, too, wished to end it. Situations are similar when it comes to strangers. Only about 1.6 percent of the conversations ended when both parties wanted them to.The paper pointed out that when they talk to strangers, what makes people “mask their desires” may be their politeness. When talking to close friends and family, it may be their kindness as ending the chat too soon may hurt the other’s feelings.____18____ Saying you only have a certain amount of time to talk at the start of the chat is a good place to start. “Remember conversations don’t end because people don’t know when the other person wants to go,” Adam Mastroianni who led the study told the Inverse website. ____19____ For example, clearly communicate that you had a nice time and would like to talk again.However, in some ways, this may not be a bad thing. ____20____ Conversation is a good way to make these connections happen.A．After all, people need social connections.B．It’s difficult to run away from a conversation.C．So what is the best way to end a conversation?D．Scientists have proved that you might not be alone.E．And some participants felt trapped in the conversation.F．You should make your partner feel good about the end of the chat.G．Also, more participants believed they wanted to end the conversation first.三、完形填空Something interesting happened at my home recently.
