human brain has two sides,and each side has different work to do.The left side of the brain controls language and number it analyses and reasons. The right side controls our imagination;it controls our understanding of music and our sense of rhythm.It is the right side of our brain which makes daydreams.Great artists and great scientists are similar:they both use the two sides of their brain.It is well-known that Albert Einstein as a great scientist also enjoyed art,playing the violin and sailing.Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis reason and language.He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking.He got ideas by using his imagination.He then used the left side of brain to use analysis.number and reason and then he used language to explain it.Usual education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our nguage, number,analysis and reasons are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming.In fact,all of us need both sides of our brain.We need to use or imaginations to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy feeling and creative experiences.And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to live in this world.It is true that some people find it easier to use one side of the brain rather than the otherbut all of us can use both sides and all of us benefit by using all the powers we have. Nietzsche,the well-known philosopher,said that we add to our knowledge by making conscious the unconscious.66.According to the passage, of our brain controls our understanding of music.A.the left sideB.the right sideC.both sideD.neither side67.Albert Einstein's example is used to support the idea that .A.all scientific discoveries are based on imagination.B.people should do nothing but daydreaming two sides of brain is importantD.scientists are good at imagining what may happen68.It is implied in the passage that school education .A.suggests using both sides at the brainB.finds it very important to have daydreamsC.claims that analysis and reason are of no valueD.fails to develop the sight side of the brain69.What did Nietzsche soy about adding to the knowledge we have?A.Learning happens when we are not conscious.B.Learning happens when we make unconscious decisions.C.Learning happens when we become aware of things inside us.D.Learning happens when we think about things logically.70.The author's attitude toward using two sides of the brain is .A.positiveB.neutralC.illogicalD.criticalPassage ThreeFor many people today,reading is no longer relaxation.To keep up their work they must read letters,reports,trade publications,interoffice communications,not to mention newspapers and magazines:a never-ending flood of words.In getting a job or advancing one,the ability to read and comprehend quickly can mean the difference between success and failure Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are poor readers.Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early age,and never get over them The main problem lies in language itself-words.Single words have little meaning until they are combined into phrases,sentences and paragraphs. Unfortunately,however,the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He reads one word at a time,often regressing to reread words or passages.Regression or looking back over what you have just read,is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which slows down the speed of reading is vocalization-sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits.some reading clinics use a device called accelerator (加速器)which moves a bar down the page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate than the reader finds comfortable,in order to "stretch"him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast making word by word reading,regression and vocalization virtually impossible.At first,comprehension is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas, you will not only read faster but your comprehension will improved.Many people have found their reading skills improved a lot after some training.71.According to the passage,today many people no longer read for .A.newsB.their workrmationD.entertainment72.Most people can't read and comprehend quickly mainly because .A.they don't read groups of wordsB.they don't like to be trained in reading skillsC.they don't realize they have pour reading habitsD.they don't understand words when out together73.The following are all bad reading habits EXCEPT .A.regressionB.reading for ideas onlyC.vocalizationD.word by word reading74.How does an accelerator help people to read?A.It helps people read at a comfortable speed.B.It makes people stretch their eyes when reading.C.It forces people to overcome bad reading habitsD.It lets people look back over what they have just read.75.What does "At first,comprehension is sacrificed for speed."mean?A.The reader reads fast,but he understands everything he reads.B.The reader reads slowly,and he understands everything he reads.C.The reader reads fast without understanding everything he reads.D.The reader reads slowly,but he doesn't understand everything he reads.Passage FourWhen the dog named Juddy spotted the first sheen in her life she did what cones naturally.The four-year-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and being a city animal,lost both her sheep and her sense of direction.Then she ran along the edge of cliff (悬崖)and fell 100 feet bouncing off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden panicked and celled the coastguard of Cornwall who turned up in seconds.Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.Three days later,a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall.Mr.Holden returned home fromhis holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead.He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the neat two weeks,the Holdens were heartbroken.Then,one day,the phone rang and Steve Tregear,the coastguard of Cornwall,asked Holder if he would like his dog bark.A birdwatcher.armed with a telescope found the pet sitting desperately on a rock While he sounded the alarm,the student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.The dog had initially been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的)but had survived by drinking water from a fresh scream at the base of the cliff.She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge."The dog was very thin and hungry"Steve Tregear said,"it was a very dog.She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water",he added.It was,.as Mr.Holden admitted,“a minor miracle(奇迹)”76.The dog Judy fell down the cliff

The animal cried for hours as the farmer tried to find out what to do. Finally, he decided it just wasn’t worth saving because the animal was too old and the well needed to be covered up anyway.He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They each held a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first the donkey cried loudly when he realized what was happening. Then, a few shovelfuls later, he quieted down completely. The farmer looked down into the well, and was greatly surprised by what he saw. With every shovelful of dirt at his back, the donkey wouldshake it off and take a step up on the new layer of dirt.As the farmer’s neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, to the great surprise of everyone, the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and walked off fast.Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The good way of getting out of the well is to stop crying, and not to let the dirt bury you, but to shake it off and take a step up. Each one of our troubles is a stepping stone.

Please gather for funeral service in the meeting room.”While there was some sadness among the employees at the unexpected news of the death of their co-worker, they were curious to know who was stopping them from succeeding. Moreover, most of them were now interested in the possibility of moving up and succeeding in the company.Many employees were shocked to find all their co-workers still present and very much alive when they entered the meeting room.“If it wasn't him or her, then who? Who was holding us back from succeeding? Who has passed away?”they all thought.The employees went to the coffin(棺材) one by one, and each was at a loss when they saw what was inside. They could not make sense of what they were seeing.There was only a mirror in the coffin. So, when each employee looked in to see who were“holding them back from success,”they saw themselves. Besides, there was a sign next to the mirror that read:You are the only person who can limit your growth.You are the only person who is capable of creating your success. It is not the situations and people that change your life, the way you face different situations and people in life makes the difference. Your life will change when you overstep your limiting beliefs and realize you are in control of your life.You now know who has been preventing you from reaching your full potential(潜力).

Passage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:There are a few things you should keep in mind when you talk to your professors(大学老师), especially if you ask for a particular favor.Call them by the right title. A “Doctor”is someone with a Ph. D.:not all professors have a Ph. D.“Professor”is usually acceptable, unless you have been told otherwise. I prefer to be called by my first name, and I make that point clear on the first day of my class. If you are totally unsure,a"Mr."or“Ms.”is usually fine. Do not use “Mrs” unless the professor herself uses it; it is time to recognize that not all adult women are or want to be married.Be prepared to do the work. If you have missed an assignment or a test or are falling behind in your reading, and you are seeking help to catch up or a special dispensation(豁免) to make up the assignment, you had better be prepared to do the work- and generally under more difficult conditions.get the impression that a lot of students imagine I might just say“don't worry about it, I'll give you the points.”This,of course, is not going to happen.Prepare for disappointment. So often a professor will not or cannot help you. Your professor probably spent hours writing his or her syllabus(课程大纲), and probably spent another hour explaining it to you at the beginning of the class, so he or she has invested a lot in the rules. They especially hate it when you do not do an assignment and then ask for a way to make it up. Your only choice might be to shift into damage control, see what you can do, and ask honestly if you should continue in the class.As a general rule, professors respect true interest. They will go out of their way to help if they feel that you are honestly interested in doing well.11. Which title is usually acceptable for a student to call a teacher at a university?A. Doctor. C. Mr. or Mrs.B. Professor. D. First name.12. As a university student who has missed a test, you had better.A. ask for a particular favor C. get prepared to work harderB. ask for an easy makeup test D. seek help from your professor13. Professors hate it when students do not do an assignment and then ask for a way to make it up, for they have already .A. explained the syllabus C. finished writing their syllabusB. invested much in the rules D. prepared to disappoint their students14. What will professors do when they feel that you are really interested in doing well?A. Offer you help as much as possible.C. Ask you to get prepared for the workB. Require you to catch up with othersD. Give you the points you want to have.15. What can you infer from the passage?A. We can often use"Mrs." for women professors.B. The author is likely to give the points as the students wish.C. You should drop out of the class when you fail to do an assignment.D. Students should follow some advice when dealing with their professors. Passage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:Imagine there is a small fire in your kitchen. Your fire alarm goes off, warning everyone nearby about the danger. Someone calls 911. You try to put the fire out yourself-maybe you even have a fire extinguisher(灭火器) in the kitchen. If that does not work, you know how to safely leave. By the time you get outside,a fire truck is already pulling up. Firefighters use the hydrant(消防栓) in front of your house to extinguish the fire before any of your neighbors' homes are ever at risk of catching fire.We need to prepare to fight disease outbreaks just as we prepare to fight fires. If a fire is left to burn out of control, it becomes a threat not only to one home but to an entire community. The same is true for infectious(传染的) diseases, except on a much bigger scale. As we know all too well from Covid-19, an outbreak in one town can quickly spread across an entire country and then around the world.When the World Health Organization first described Covid-19 as a pandemic just over three years ago, it marked a collective failure to prepare for pandemics, despite many warnings. And I worry that we are making the same mistakes again. The world has not done as much to get ready for the next pandemic as I had hoped. But it is not too late to stop history from repeating itself. The world needs a well-funded system that is ready to act immediately when danger appears. We need a fire department for pandemics. I am optimistic about a network called the Global Health Emergency Corps(全球卫生应急联盟) that the WHO and its partners are building. This network of the world's top health emergency leaders will work together to get ready for the next pandemic. Just as firefighters run drills to practice responding to a fire, the Emergency Corps plans to run drills to practice for outbreaks. The exercises will make sure that everyone- governments, health care providers, emergency health workers-knows what to do when a potential outbreak appears.16. What is the relationship between pandemics and fires according to the author?A. Pandemics are not as dangerous as fires.B. Fires are easier to control than pandemics.C. Both can quickly spread across an entire country.D. Both pose a threat to a community if left uncontrolled.17. As for pandemics, the author is worried that _A. they are not dangerous than firesB. firefighters are not trained to respond to themC. the world is not doing enough to prepare for themD. the Global Health Emergency Corps will not be successful18. What is the Global Health Emergency Corps?A. An organization that provides funding for medical research.B. A program to train firefighters to respond to health emergenciesC. A new technology launched by WHO to extinguish fire s more efficientlyD. A network of top health emergency leaders preparing for the next pandemic.19. What is the purpose of running drill for outbreaks?A. To ensure everyone knows what to do.B. To ask people to take health measures.C. To find an effective cure for pandemics.D. To test fire extinguishers in case of a fire.20. What is the main idea of the passage?A. We should always have a fire extinguish er in our kitchen.B. Covid- 19 was not described as a pandemic over three years ago.C. The world needs to prepare for pandemics as we prepare for fires.D. Firefighters should work together with health care providers during pandemics. Format IIDirections: In the following passage, some sentences have been removed.

But my whole experience with the language was in the classroom. All of that changed, however,during my last summer of high school. As a17-year-old girl, l flew across the country by myself for the first time! I headed for Quebec to live in the province with a French-speaking host family, who didn't speak any English. And I would learn French at a local school.On the first day of school, all of us students were given а test to determine(lĩE) our language level. We were required to speak only French all summer.I made every effort to communicate in a second language by making new friends, seeing movies and even ordering food from restaurants in French. Though I couldn't understand most of it at the very beginning,the whole experience was exciting and refreshing.On weekends, my classmates and I took trips to different places around the province.On one trip, we went whale watching on the St. Lawrence River. Even though it was raining, we could see huge whales swimming around our boat. The most memorable part of our trip was a visit to historic Quebec City. I walked along the stone streets, took pictures of the European-style buildings, and learned some stories there.Finally my efforts paid off. At the end of the summer, I was able to communicate pretty well. I couldn't wait to go back to school and talk with my French teacher.Being fully immersed in a French-speaking environment was a valuable learning experience. And it could be the main reason for my improvement in French.46.When did the writer fly alone for the first time?A.At age 10B. At age 20C. At age 17D.

In March, 2022, COVID-19 started suddenly in my city. It was so serious that the whole city was locked down. At the very beginning of the lockdown, some old people, especially those living alone, had difficulty getting vegetables.One day, in the community WeChat group, an old man said that he was short of vegetables so I had an idea of setting up a food bank in the community, and my neighbors were also ready to offer help.To keep social distancing, I used a large box as the food bank, and put it in the public area. Neighbors could give away and get some food there. The large box was quickly filled with vegetables, rice and snacks.One evening, I saw a bag of vegetables with a note saying “These are fresh vegetables. Please take them home if you need.”In the WeChat group, an old lady who got the vegetables said, “I was so moved by the good-will, but I only took three tomatoes, because I wanted to leave the rest for those people really in need.”There were many similar stories in my city during the lockdown. Although COVID-19 keeps us apart, we can get through the hard times as long as we pull together.51. When did COVID-19 start suddenly in the city?C. In May, 2022D. In March, 2021A. In March, 2022B.

But IT managers can also specialize in other areas. Some managers may also be responsible for keeping their company’s Internet safety. They protect both their company and their online customers from thieves.Other managers focus more on the business rather than the technical part of computing. They become project managers, helping companies reach as many online customers as possible.Some companies also look for IT managers who can act as trainers. These trainers help a company’s computer technicians keep up-to-date on computer skills.Most companies require their IT managers to have both a bachelor’s(学士)degree and experience in the computer field. Often, companies hire IT managers out of their existing staff of computer technicians.Since IT managers are extremely important to companies’ success, it’s no surprise that they receive such high salaries - around US $56,000 a year to start with. And, in such a fast-changing field, managers’ salaries usually increase after only a few years.The world will be watching to see just how quickly e-commerce(电子商务)replaces the old ways of doing business. And as computers change the way the world does business, IT managers will be in the middle of it all. Few companies can survive without them.56.Besides being the leader of computer technicians, IT managers are also expected to be _______. A.specialists in online safety B. skilled IT workers C. training assistants D. salesmen57.The word “reach” (Line 2, Para. 2) probably means _______.A.understandingB. getting in touch withC. knowingD. arriving at58.According to the passage, companies often look for IT managers _______.A.within the companyB. among the employed staffC. from abroadD. from outside the company59.Why do employers pay high salaries to IT managers? _______.

Parents complained that children did not show them proper respect and obedience while children complained that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many critics argue that it is built into the fabric(结构) of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own life style. In more traditional societies when children grow up they are expected to live in the same area as their parents to marry people that their parents know and approve of and often to continue the family occupation. In our society young people often travel great distances for their educations move out of the family home at an early age. marry or live with people whom their parents have never met and close occupations different from those of their parents.In our upwardly mobile society parents often expect their children to do better than they did: to find better jobs to make more money and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often however the ambitions that parents have for their children are another cause of the division between them. Often they discover that they have very little in common with each other.Finally the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture elderly people are valued for their wisdom but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become obsolete overnight. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds separated by different skills and abilities.No doubt the generation gap will continue to be a feature of American life for some time to come. Its causes are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society and in the rapid pace at which society changes. 71.The main idea of the first paragraph is that _______.A.the generation gap suddenly appearedB.the generation gap is a feature of American lifeC.how people can reduce the generation gapD.many critics argue over the nature of the generation gap72. The word "around" in paragraph 1 means _______.A.on all sides B.in every direction C.near D.in existence73. In American society,young people often______.A.rely on their parents to make a lifeB.stay with their parents in order to get an opportunity for higher educationC.seek the best advice from their parentsD.have very little in common with their parents74.Which one is NOT the cause of the generation gap?A.Young people like to choose their own life styles.B.American society is changing very fast.C.Parents place high hopes on their children.D.Modern education makes them think differently.75. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the reading passage? A.Parents should be more tolerable towards their children.B.The younger generation should value the older generation for their wisdom.C.The generation gap is partly created by the older generation.D. The generation gapshould be avoidable in American society.第Ⅰ卷Part III Translation (每小题 6 分,共 30 分)Direction: There are 10 statements in this section. Please translate sentences 66-75.

Reading Comprehension (30%)Passage 1There is little doubt that house cats first developed naturally from ancient wild cats. The closest relative is the African wild cat which still lives in Africa today. This is understandablebecause the first house cats came from Africa.Cats first started to live around people in Egypt about 6,000-7,000 years ago. From Egypt, cats started to move around the world. This is about the same time that Egyptians began storing grain in buildings. Scientists used to believe that people tamed cats to catch mice and protect the grain. However, cats don’t like to be told what to do! Now, scientists believe that cats followed the mice and learned to accept people. Finally, some of the cats began to grow comfortable around people. These were smaller cats that needed protection. As these cats and people got used to each other, then they moved in together. Around 5,000 years ago, cats started to live with people.Soon cats were in Greece, then the Middle East and China. They moved along Egyptian business roads keeping away mice and keeping people around them. After the Romans came to Egypt, they also accepted the cats and brought them to Europe. These cats likely bred(繁殖)with other cats to form the many kinds of house cats we have today.Cats are relatively recent house animals. House cats still have a lot in common with their wild relatives. Cats sleep a lot to save energy just like wild cats. They will often get food at night as well. House cats are generally peaceful and friendly, but be careful! If a cat feels it is in danger, it will fight back-just like a wild cat!36.Where did the first house cats come from? ____. 2.B. Africa.C. Europe.D. America.37.When did cats start to live with people? ____. 2A.About 4,000 years ago.B.About 5,000 years ago.C.About 6,000 years ago.D.About 7,000 years ago.38.According to the text, which of the following is TRUE? ____. 3A.Cats started to move around the world from China.B.Cats get good at night to save energy like wild cats.C.Cats have a little in common with their wild relatives.D.Cats were accepted and brought to Europe by Romans.39.What does the underlined word “tamed” mean in Chinese? ____. 3A.驱散B. 捕捉C. 驯化D. 引进40.What does the text mainly talk about? ____. 3A. The development of house cats.B. Different cats in different countries.C. The relationship between cats and people.D. The differences between house cats and wild cats.Passage 2How green are you? Do you know how to be green?We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you.ReduceReduce means “use less”. Don’t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution andwaste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary-or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.ReuseReuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup or a paper bag. It’s better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.RecycleRecycle means “change things into something else”. Though it takes energy to change something into something else, it’s better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighborhood and take part in recycling programs. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.So please remember these three words: reduce, reuse and recycle.41.What is the passage about? ____. 2A.How to produce things.B.How to burn things.C.How to help others.D.How to be green.42.Which of the following is right? ____.2A.Don’t waste things.B.Always throw away old thing.C.Always buy new things.D.Buy too many things from abroad.43.Why is it better to use a china cup and a lunch box? ____.2A.You can burn them.B.You can use them again.C.You can throw them away.D.You can change them into something else.44.To protect the environment, we should remember these three words: ____.2A.waste, reuse and recycleB.repair, burn and recycleC.reduce, reuse and recycleD.reduce, waste and recycle45.The passage may come from ____.3A. a menuB. a dictionaryC. a storybookD. a magazinePassage 3Thomas Edison lit up the world with his invention of the electric light. Without him, the world might still be in the dark. However, the electric light was not his only invention. He also invented the motion picture camera and over 1,200 other things. About every two weeks he created somethingnew.Thomas Edison was born in 1847. He attended school for only three months. His mother taught him at home, but Thomas was mostly self-educated.

Unluckily, his first work experience did not end well. They fired him, then he accidentally set fire to the floor of the train. Then Edison worked for five years as a telegraph operator, but he continued to spend much of this time in experimenting his first patent (专利权) in 1868 for a vote recorder run by electricity.Thomas Edison was totally deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other, but he thought of his deafness as a blessing in many ways. It kept conversations short, so that he could have more time for work. He always worked 16 out of every 24 hours. Sometimes his wife had to remind him to sleep and eat.Thomas Edison died at the age of 84. He left a great many inventions that greatly improved the quality of life all over the world.46.

My parents call me “little monkey”, and if you’ve ever seen a monkey, then you can probably imagine how thin I am. But the bad thing is that my friends are larger than I am! I think when I wear tight shirts and jeans it makes them look fat. I like wearing tight clothes, but I don’t want to insult them (as it makes them look fat). What should I do?BenDear Ben,I have written the column for several years, and I’d like to tell you the most important thing is to feel comfortable with yourself and how you look. There is no need to change yourself for your friends because real friends will understand that you were born this way and you are who you are. Even though you feel that your looking skinny will make them “look fat”, it is not true.

Creating a set bedtime routine can improve this relaxation effect. Reading, listening to music, spending time with a pet, writing a diary or doing anything else can relax you.Expect a good night’s sleep. Instead of worrying that you won’t sleep, remind yourself that you can. Say “Tonight, I will sleep well” several times during the day.

2023年湖北普通专升本大学英语真题试题及答案题目一:阅读理解Passage 1:Computers are increasingly being used to make important decisions, such as granting credit and making hiring decisions. Many people believe that such decisions should be made by humans, not by computers. They argue that computers lack the human ability to consider the context and nuances of each situation.However, proponents of computer decision-making contend that computers are less likely to be influenced by personal biases and emotions, leading to fairer outcomes. Humans are prone to making decisions based on their emotions and prejudices, while computers can follow strict algorithms and use objective criteria.Furthermore, computers can process vast amounts of data within seconds, which humans cannot do. This enables them to analyze complex information and identify patterns that might not be apparent to humans. In addition, computer systems can be continuously updated with new information, which ensures that decisions are based on the most relevant and up-to-date data available.In conclusion, while it is true that computers lack certain human qualities, such as empathy and the ability to consider context, they offer numerous advantages in decision-making. Their ability to be unbiased, process large amounts of data, andprovide objective criteria make them valuable tools in various fields.Questions:1.What is the main argument of those who believedecisions should be made by humans?2.According to the passage, why are computers lesslikely to be influenced by personal biases and emotions?3.Why are computers able to analyze complexinformation and identify patterns that might not beapparent to humans?Answer:1.The main argument of those who believe decisionsshould be made by humans is that computers lack thehuman ability to consider the context and nuances of each situation.puters are less likely to be influenced bypersonal biases and emotions because they follow strictalgorithms and use objective criteria.puters are able to analyze complex informationand identify patterns that might not be apparent to humans because they can process vast amounts of data withinseconds.题目二:词汇选择Choose the correct word to complete each sentence.1.The new museum has a __________ collection of modern art.(A)diverse(B)discrete(C)conventional(D)coherent2.We need to find a __________ to this problem before it gets worse.(A)sustenance(B)successor(C)solution(D)sequence3.She is known for her __________ and dedication to her work.(A)rhetoric(B)resilience(C)reverence(D)remorse4.The company’s profits have __________ significantlyover the past year.(A)debated(B)diminished(C)diverged(D)distinguishedAnswer:(A)diverse(C)solution(B)resilience(B)diminished题目三:写作 PracticeWrite a short composition (approximately 200 words) on the following topic:The Importance of Critical Thinking in the Digital AgeIn today’s digital age, critical thinking skills are more important than ever.
