Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Scientists recently examined studies on dog intelligence and compared them with research into the minds of other intelligent animals. The researchers found that dogs are among the more intelligent carnivores(食肉动物),social hunters and domestic animals, but that their intelligence does not 26 other intelligent animals in any of those categories. Though a significant body of research has examined dog cognition 27 , the authors of this new study found little to warrant the 28 of work that has been devoted to the topic.Stephen Lea, lead author of the new study, argues that many researchers seem to have designed their studies to 29 how clever dogs are, rather than simply to study dogs' brains. Lea and a colleague examined more than 300 studies of dog cognition, comparing the studies' results with those from research into other animals. The researchers made specific comparisons between the different species in different categories of intelligence. These comparisons 30 that dogs are intelligent, but their intelligence is not as 31 as some researchers might have believed.In many areas, though, comparisons were not possible. For example, the researchers noted that both dogs and cats are known to be able to recognize and 32 human voices. But the investigators could not find any data to indicate which species can remember a greater number of 33 human voices, so it was impossible to compare the two on that front. However, not all researchers agree 34 with the findings of this study. Zachary Silver, an American researcher, believes the authors of the new study 35 the idea that an excessive amount of research has been devoted to dogs, as the field of dog cognition is young, and there is much to be learned about how dogs think.Section BDirections; In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attachedto it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.The lifesaving power of gratitudeA)Gratitude may be more beneficial than we commonly suppose. One recent study asked participants to write a note of thanks to someone and then estimate how surprised and happy the recipient would feel-an impact that they consistently underestimated. Another study assessed the health benefits of writing thank-you notes. The researchers found that writing as few as three weekly thank-you notes over the course of three weeks improved life satisfaction, increased happy feelings and reduced symptoms of depression.B)While this research into gratitude is relatively new, the principles involved are anything but. Students of mine in a political philosophy course at Indiana University are reading Daniel Defoe's 300-year-old Robinson Crusoe, often regarded as the first novel published in English. Left alone on an unknown island with no apparent prospect of rescue or escape, Crusoe has much to lament (悲叹). But instead of giving in to despair, he makes a list of things for which he is grateful, including the fact that he is the sole survivor from the shipwreck(海难)and has been able to salvage many useful items from the wreckage.C)Defoe's masterpiece, which is often ranked as one of the world's greatest novels, provides a portrait of gratitude in action that is as timely and relevant today as it has ever been. It is also one with which contemporary psychology and medicine are just beginning to catch up. Simply put, for most of us, it is far more helpful to focus on the things in life for which we can express gratitude than those that incline us toward resentment and lamentation.D)When we focus on the things we regret, such as failed relationships, family disputes, and setbacks in career and finance, we tend to become more regretful. Conversely, when we focus on the things we are grateful for, a greater sense of happiness tends to spread through our lives. And while no one would argue for cultivating a false sense of blessedness, there is mounting evidence that counting our blessings is one of the best habits we can develop to promote mental and physical health.E) Gratitude has long enjoyed a privileged position in many of the world's cultural traditions. For example, some ancient Western philosophers counsel gratitude that is both enduring and complete, and some Eastern thinkers portray it as not merely an attitude but a virtue to be put into practice.F)Recent scientific studies support these ancient teachings. Individuals who regularly engage in gratitude exercises, such as counting their blessings or expressing gratitude to others, exhibit increased satisfaction with relationships and fewer symptoms of physical illness. And the benefits are not only psychological and physical. They may also be moral—those who practice gratitude also view their lives less materialistically and suffer from less envy.G) There are multiple explanations for such benefits of gratefulness. One is the fact that expressing gratitude encourages others to continue being generous, thus promoting a virtuous cycle of goodnessin relationships. Similarly, grateful people may be more likely to reciprocate(回报) with acts of kindness of their own. Broadly speaking, a community in which people feel grateful to one another is likely to be a more pleasant place to live than one characterized by mutual suspicion and resentment. The beneficial effects of gratitude may extend even further. For example, when many people feel good about what someone else has done for them, they experience a sense of being lifted up, with a corresponding enhancement of their regard for humanity. Some are inspired to attempt to become better people themselves, doing more to help bring out the best in others and bringing more goodness into the world around them.H) Gratitude also tends to strengthen a sense of connection with others. When people want to do good things that inspire gratitude, the level of dedication in relationships tends to grow and relationships seem to last longer. And when people feel more connected, they are more likely to choose to spend their time with one another and demonstrate their feelings of affection in daily acts.I ) Of course, acts of kindness can also foster discomfort. For example, if people feel they are not worthy of kindness or suspect that some ulterior (别有用心的)motive lies behind it, the benefits of gratitude will not be realized. Likewise, receiving a kindness can give rise to a sense of indebtedness, leaving beneficiaries feeling that they must now pay back whatever good they have received. Gratitude can flourish only if people are secure enough in themselves and sufficiently trusting to allow it to do so. Another obstacle to gratitude is often called a sense of entitlement. Instead of experiencing a benefaction(善行)as a good turn, people sometimes regard it as a mere payment of what they are owed, for which no one deserves any moral credit.J) There are a number of practical steps anyone can take to promote a sense of gratitude. One is simply spending time on a regular basis thinking about someone who has made a difference, or perhaps writing a thank-you note or expressing such gratitude in person. Others are found in ancient religious disciplines, such as reflecting on benefactions received from another person or actually praying for the health and happiness of a benefactor. In addition to benefactions received, it is also possible to focus on opportunities to do good oneself, whether those acted on in the past or hoped for in the future. Some people are most grateful not for what others have done for them but for chances they enjoyed to help others. In regularly reflecting on the things in his life he is grateful for, Defoe's Crusoe believes that he becomes a far better person than he would have been had he remained in the society from which he originally set out on his voyage.K)Reflecting on generosity and gratitude, the great basketball coach John Wooden once offered two counsels to his players and students. First, he said, "It is impossible to have a perfect day unless you have done something for someone who will never be able to repay you.” In saying this, Wooden sought to promote purely generous acts, as opposed to those performed with an expectation of reward. Second, he said, "Give thanks for your blessings every day."L) Some faith traditions incorporate such practices into the rhythm of daily life. For example, adherents of some religions offer prayers of thanksgiving every morning before rising and every night before lying down to sleep. Others offer thanks throughout the day, such as before meals. Other less frequent special events, such as births, deaths and marriages, may also be heralded byM)When Defoe depicted Robinson Crusoe making thanksgiving a daily part of his island life, he was anticipating findings in social science and medicine that would not appear for hundreds of years. Yet he was also reflecting the wisdom of religious and philosophical traditions that extend back thousands of years. Gratitude is one of the healthiest and most nourishing of all states of mind, and those who adopt it as a habit are enriching not only their own lives but also the lives of those around them.36. It does us far more good to focus on things we can be grateful for than what makes us sad and resentful.37.The beneficial impacts of gratitude can extend from individuals to their community and to the wider society.38. The participants in a recent study repeatedly underestimated the positive effect on those who received thank-you notes.39. Good deeds can sometimes make people feel uncomfortable.40.People who regularly express gratitude can benefit in moral terms.41. A basketball coach advocated performing generous acts without expecting anything in return.42.More and more evidence shows it makes us mentally and physically healthier to routinely count our blessings.43. Of all states of mind, feeling grateful is considered one of the most healthy and beneficial.44.The principles underlying the research into gratitude are nothing new at all.45. Gratitude is likely to enhance one's sense of being connected with other people.Section CDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C)and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Technology is never a neutral tool for achieving human ends. Technological innovations reshape people as they use these innovations to control their environment. Artificial intelligence, for example, is altering humanity.While the term AI conjures up anxieties about killer robots or catastrophic levels of unemployment, there are other, deeper implications. As AI increasingly shapes the human experience, how does this change what it means to be human? Central to the problem is a person's capacity to make choices, particularly judgments that have moral implications.Aristotle argued that the capacity for making practical judgments depends on regularly making them—on habit and practice. We see the emergence of machines as substitute judges in a variety of everyday contexts as a potential threat to people learning how to effectively exercise judgmentIn the workplace, managers routinely make decisions about who to hire or fire and which loan to approve, to name a few. These are areas where algorithmic(算法的)prescription is replacing human judgment, and so people who might have had the chance to develop practical judgment in these areas no longer will.Recommendation engines, which are increasingly prevalent intermediaries in people's consumption of culture, may serve to constrain choice and minimize luck. By presenting consumers with algorithmically selected choices of what to watch, read, stream and visit next, companies are replacing human taste with machine taste. In one sense, this is helpful. After all, machines can survey a wider range of choices than any individual is likely to have the time or energy to do on their own.At the same time, though, this selection is optimizing for what people are likely to prefer based on what they've preferred in the past. We think there is some risk that people's options will be constrained by their past in a new and unanticipated way.As machine learning algorithms improve and as they train on more extensive data sets, larger parts of everyday life are likely to become utterly predictable. The predictions are going to get better and better, and they will ultimately make common experiences more efficient and pleasant.Algorithms could soon—if they don't already—have a better idea about which show you'd like to watch next and which job candidate you should hire than you do. One day, humans may even find a way for machines to make these decisions without some of the biases that humans typically display.But to the extent that unpredictability is part of how people understand themselves and part of what people like about themselves, humanity is in the process of losing something significant. As they become more and more predictable, the creatures inhabiting the increasingly AI-mediated world will become less and less like us.46.What do we learn about the deeper implications of AI?A) It is causing catastrophic levels of unemployment.B) It is doing physical harm to human operators.C)It is altering moral judgments.D) It is reshaping humanity.47. What is the consequence of algorithmic prescription replacing human judgment?A) People lose the chance to cultivate the ability to make practical judgments.B) People are prevented from participating in making major decisions in the workplace.C)Managers no longer have the chance to decide which loan to approve.D) Managers do not need to take the trouble to determine who to hire or fire.48.What may result from increasing application of recommendation engines in our consumption ofculture?A)Consumers will have much limited choice. C) It will be easier to decide on what to enjoy.B)Consumers will actually enjoy better luck. D) Humans will develop tastes similar to machines'.49. What is likely to happen to larger parts of our daily life as machine learning algorithms improve?A) They will turn out to be more pleasant. C)They can be completely anticipated.B) They will repeat our past experience. D)They may become better and better.50. Why does the author say the creatures living in the more and more AI-mediated world will become increasingly unlike us?A) They will have lost the most significant human element of being intelligent.B) They will no longer possess the human characteristic of being unpredictable.C) They will not be able to understand themselves as we can do today.D) They will be deprived of what their predecessors were proud of about themselves.Passage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.Phonics, which involves sounding out words syllable(音节)by syllable, is the best way to teach children to read. But in many classrooms, this can be a dirty word. So much so that some teachers have had to sneak phonics teaching materials into the classroom. Most American children are taught to read in a way that study after study has found to be wrong.The consequences of this are striking. Less than half of all American adults were proficient readers in2017. American fourth graders rank 15th on the Progress in International Literacy Study, an international exam.America is stuck in a debate about teaching children to read that has been going on for decades. Some advocate teaching symbol-sound relationships (the sound k can be spelled as c, k, ck, or ch), known as phonics. Others support an immersive approach (using pictures of a cat to learn the word cat), known as "whole language". Most teachers today, almost three out of four according to a survey by the EdWeek Research Centre in 2019, use a mix called "balanced literacy". This combination of methods is ineffective. "You can't sprinkle in a little phonics," says Tenette Smith, executive director of elementary education and reading at Mississippi's education department. "It has to be systematic and explicitly taught."Mississippi, often behind in social policy, has set an example here. In a state once notorious for its low reading scores, the Mississippi state legislature passed new literacy standards in 2013. Since then Mississippi has seen remarkable gains. Its fourth graders have moved from 49th (out of 50 states) to 29th on the National Assessment of Educational Progress, a nationwide exam. In 2019 it was the only state to improve its scores. For the first time since measurement began, Mississippi's pupils are now average readers, a remarkable achievement in such a poor state.Mississippi's success is attributed to implementing reading methods supported by a body of researchknown as the science of reading. In 1997 Congress requested the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development and the Department of Education to convene a National Reading Panel to end the "reading wars" and synthesize the evidence. The panel found that phonics, along with explicit instruction in phonemic (音位的)awareness, fluency and comprehension, worked best.Yet over two decades on,"balanced literacy" is still being taught in classrooms. But advances in statistics and brain imaging have disproved the whole-language method. To the teacher who is a proficient reader, literacy seems like a natural process that requires educated guessing, rather than the deliberate process emphasized by phonics. Teachers can imagine that they learned to read through osmosis(潜移默化)when they were children. Without proper training, they bring this to classrooms.51. What do we learn about phonics in many American classrooms?A)It is ill reputed.B)It is mostly misapplied.C) It is arbitrarily excluded.D) It is misrepresented.52. What has America been witnessing for decades?A) An obsession with innovating teaching methodologies of reading.B)An enduring debate over the approach to teaching children to read.C)An increasing concern with many children's inadequacy in literacy.D) An ever-forceful advocacy of a combined method for teaching reading.53.Why does Tenette Smith think a combination of teaching methods is ineffective?A)Elementary school children will be frustrated when taught with several methods combined.B)Phonics has to be systematically applied and clearly taught to achieve the desired effect.C)Sprinkling in a little phonics deters the progress of even adequately motivated children.D) Balanced literacy fails to sustain children's interest in developing a good reading habit.54. What does the author say Mississippi's success is attributed to?A)Convening a National Reading Panel to synthesize research evidence.B)Placing sufficient emphasis upon both fluency and comprehension.C)Adopting scientifically grounded approaches to teaching reading.D)Obtaining support from Congress to upgrade teaching methods.55. What have advances in statistics and brain imaging proved ineffective?A)The teaching of symbol-sound relationships. C)Efforts to end the reading wars.B)Explicit instruction in phonemic awareness. D)The immersive approach.Part IV (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.

2023年12月CET6大学英语六级考试真题及答案解析【官方完整版】Part I 写作Writing (30 minutes)Directions: Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on innovation. Your essay should include the importance of innovation and measures to be taken to encourage innovation.You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.【参照范文】It is universally acknowledged that innovation refers to being creative, unique and different. In fact, today it is impossibly difficult for us to image a 21st century without innovation.We should place a high value on innovation firstly because innovative spirit can enable an individual to ameliorate himself, so he can be equipped with capacity to see what others cannot see, be qualified for future career promotion, and be ready for meeting the forthcoming challenges. What’s more, we ought to attach importance to the role played by innovation in economic advancement. Put it another way, in this ever-changing world, innovation to economic growth is what water is to fish. To sum up, if innovation misses our attention in any possible way, we will suffer a great loss beyond imagination.In order to encourage innovation, it is wise for us to take some feasible measures. For example, mass media should greatly publicize the significance of creative spirit and encouragethe public to cultivate awareness of innovation. Besides, those who manage to innovate should be awarded generous prize. Though there is a long way ahead to go, I am firmly certain that the shared efforts will be paid off.【参照译文】众所周知创新意味着有发明力，独一无二和不一样。

faced with too many choices.”You can make comments,cite examples or use your personal experiences to develop your essay.You should write at least 150words but no more than200words.People are now increasingly aware of the challenges in making a decision when faced with too many choices.Especially for students,they often have many different choices before them,and it is indeed a major challenge to make the right choice.For one thing,for most of us,sometimes you can make decisions in an instant,but at other times the choice feels overwhelming.Students may feel anxious when confronted with too many choices and the anxiety may cause a fear of making the wrong choice and later suffering the consequences.This may cause you to hesitate,ruminate, or fail to make any decision at all.For another,some students,It is easy for them to blindly follow others to make choices without considering whether this choice suits them.As far as I’m concerned,If you are struggling to decide what to do,keep your long-term goals in mind.Start journaling your ideas,and document your fears,hopes or expectations so that you have a clear idea of where you are now,and where you want to get to.Keep your goals in mind and explore your options objectively to ensure that you can make the choice that's right for you.第三套数字鸿沟Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to write an essay that begins with the sentence"People are now increasingly aware of the'digital gap'or challenges the elderly face in a digital world."You can make comments,give explanations or cite examples to develop your essay.You should write at least150 words but no more than200words.People are now increasingly aware of the“digital gap”or challenges the elderly face in a digital world.Digitalization has become a prominent feature of current social changes in our country.Moreover,a worrisome point is that a fair number of the elderly still face the problem of"digital siege",which should attract increasing attention nowadays.Personally speaking,there are two reason accounting for this phenomenon.First and foremost,digital technology is rapidly updated and iterated in a short time so that it is difficult for most elderly people to keep their pace with the trend due to physical and intellectual limitations.In addition,the majority of digital technologies are based on the market needs of young people.Only the aged learn the cumbersome intelligent operation can they be able to apply the technologies,which virtually raises the technical threshold of the old people's digital life.According to statistics,our country is officially entering a moderately aged society.Therefore,we should spare no efforts to help the aged overcome the challenges and enjoy the benefits brought by the digitalization.听力本次听力共有一套第一套1.A)In a restaurant.2.D)She is a partial vegetarian.3.B)Changing one's eating habit.4.A)They enjoy perfect health.5.D)The man had an attitude problem.6.C)They use

英语六级阅读理解专练题(一)In the United States, where“casualness”is considereda great virtue, people often sit with feet on chairs oreven desks. They sometimes sit with their backsides( buttocks) on tables and desks as a way ofexpressing their individuality or career attitude.They feel comfortable crossing their legs and sittingwith one ankle on the other knee . Poor posture —slumping oneself over while sitting in a chair and placing feet on whatever object is around — isa common U. S. behavior. It is designed to show that the perso n is casual, honest, sincere,and“ just one of the folks ”. In the United States, even millionaires, corporation presidents,government leaders, and movie stars try to pretend they are ordinary people by using“the U.S. slouch ”and“ the feet-on-the -furniture”maneuver.Unfortunately, other countries interpret this behavior as being sloppy and as reflecting ageneral lack of alertness, interest, and respect. People from the United States do not usuallyrealize that what they regard as casualness is viewed very differently and very negatively bymany people around the world.People in many cultures are expected to sit erect. Such cultures include many countriesin LatinAmerica, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. In the United States, slouching is acceptable and isa positive sign of being casual and friendly. In the United States, crossing legs is a sign of goodetiquette . Many cultures say thatcrossing legs is okay, but placing the ankle on the kneewhilecrossing one’s legs is totally unacceptable .One reason for not putting the ankle on the knee is that when you do so, one foot or the soleof the shoe is usually pointing at someone . This is a very severe insult in many countriesaround the world, especially Muslim countries. Under few circumstances should you point yourfoot at anyone , because the foot is cons idered the least sacred part of the body in manysocieties. In some countries such as Nepal, pointing the foot at a cow is an outrage , becausethe cow is a sacred animal. In Buddhist countries, pointing the foot at statue of the Buddha isa severe offense. Moving objects with the feet is very rude in Thailand, Nepal, and Taiwan. InBangladesh, you should not touch books with a foot or shoe; if you do, you must make anelaborate apology.As you can tell, posture is a very strong messenger. It conveys much about a particu larperson. Posture ( in many cultures) says something about the person’s honesty, alertness,intelligence, religiousness, respect, and overall decency — or the opposite of all of these !Posture tells people whether they want to get to know a stranger, and it also tells what to thinkabout the people already known.阅读自测Translate the sentences into English with the words in parentheses :1. 这座纪念碑是为内战中牺牲的烈士们而建立的。

Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.The Future of Work.A) The nature of work is changing rapidly. Technological advancements, globalization, and demographic shifts are all contributing to a transformation in the way we work. In the past, most people worked in traditional jobs with a clear set of tasks and a predictable career path. Today, however, the job market is becoming more fluid and complex, with new types of jobs emerging and old ones disappearing.B) One of the most significant trends in the future of work is the increasing importance of digital skills. As technology continues to evolve, more and more jobs will require a basic level of digital literacy. Thisincludes skills such as using computers, the Internet, and software applications. In addition, specialized digital skills such as data analysis, programming, and artificial intelligence will be in high demand.C) Another trend is the rise of the gig economy. The gig economy refers to a labor market characterized by short-term contracts or freelance work. Workers in the gig economy often have more flexibility and autonomy than traditional employees, but they also face greater uncertainty and instability. Platforms such as Uber, Airbnb, and Upwork have made it easier for people to find gig work, and the gig economy is expected to continue to grow in the future.D) The future of work will also see a greater emphasis on soft skills. Soft skills are non-technical skills such as communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and leadership. These skills are becoming increasingly important as automation and artificial intelligence take over many routine tasks. Employers are looking for workers who can think critically, adapt to change, and work well with others.E) Remote work is another trend that is likely to continue in the future. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of remote work, and many companies have realized that it can be a more efficient and cost-effective way of working. Remote work allows employees to work from anywhere, which can improve work-life balance and reduce commuting time. However, it also requires workers to be self-motivated and disciplined.F) The future of work will also bring new challenges and opportunities for workers. On the one hand, workers will need to constantly update their skills and knowledge to keep up with the changing demands of the job market. On the other hand, new technologies and business models will create new opportunities for entrepreneurship and innovation.G) Education and training will play a crucial role in preparing workers for the future of work. Traditional education systems may not be able to keep up with the rapid pace of change, so alternative forms of education such as online courses, boot camps, and micro-credentials will become more important. Workers will also need to take responsibility for their own learning and development, continuously seeking out new skills and knowledge.H) In conclusion, the future of work is likely to be very differentfrom what we are used to. It will require workers to be adaptable, flexible, and constantly learning. Employers will need to invest in training and development to ensure that their workers have the skills they need to succeed. And policymakers will need to create policies that support the transition to a new world of work.34. The job market is becoming more fluid and complex due to various factors.35. Digital skills will be increasingly important in the future of work.36. The gig economy offers more flexibility but also brings greater uncertainty.37. Soft skills are becoming more important as automation takes over routine tasks.38. Remote work has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic.39. Workers will face both challenges and opportunities in the futureof work.40. Alternative forms of education will be more important for preparing workers for the future.41. Workers need to be adaptable and constantly learning in the future of work.42. Employers should invest in training and development for their workers.43. Policymakers should create policies to support the transition to a new world of work.Section C.Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage One.Questions 44 to 48 are based on the following passage.The concept of sustainable development has gained increasing attention in recent years. Sustainable development refers to the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It emphasizes the importance of balancing economic, social, and environmental considerations.One of the key aspects of sustainable development is environmental protection. As the global population grows and economic activities expand, the pressure on the environment is increasing. Issues such as climate change, pollution, and resource depletion are becoming more serious. To achieve sustainable development, it is necessary to take measures toprotect the environment, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions, conserving natural resources, and promoting renewable energy.Another important aspect of sustainable development is social equity. This means ensuring that the benefits of development are shared fairly among all members of society. In many developing countries, there are large disparities in income, education, and access to basic services. To promote social equity, it is necessary to invest in education, healthcare, and infrastructure, and to create job opportunities for the poor and disadvantaged.Economic development is also an essential part of sustainable development. A strong economy is needed to provide the resources and infrastructure necessary for environmental protection and social equity. However, economic development should not come at the expense of the environment or social well-being. Instead, it should be based onsustainable business practices and innovation.In conclusion, sustainable development is a complex and challenging concept that requires the cooperation and efforts of all sectors of society. Governments, businesses, and individuals all have a role to play in promoting sustainable development. By working together, we can create a more sustainable future for ourselves and future generations.44. What is the main idea of the passage?A) The importance of environmental protection.B) The concept and key aspects of sustainable development.C) The challenges of social equity.D) The role of economic development in sustainable development.45. According to the passage, which of the following is a key aspect of sustainable development?A) Population growth.B) Economic expansion.C) Environmental protection.D) Technological innovation.46. What does social equity mean in the context of sustainable development?A) Ensuring equal distribution of wealth.B) Providing the same education for everyone.C) Sharing the benefits of development fairly among all members of society.D) Creating more job opportunities for the rich.47. What is the relationship between economic development and sustainable development?A) Economic development is not important for sustainable development.B) Economic development should be sacrificed for environmental protection.C) Economic development is an essential part of sustainable development, but it should be based on sustainable practices.D) Sustainable development has nothing to do with economic development.48. Who should play a role in promoting sustainable development according to the passage?A) Only governments.B) Only businesses.C) Only individuals.D) Governments, businesses, and individuals.Passage Two.Questions 49 to 55 are based on the following passage.In today's digital age, privacy has become a major concern. With the increasing use of technology and the Internet, our personal information is being collected, stored, and shared more than ever before. This has led to a growing awareness of the importance of protecting our privacy.One of the main threats to privacy is the collection and use of personal data by companies. Many companies collect vast amounts of data about their customers, including their names, addresses, phone numbers, and purchasing habits. This data can be used for a variety of purposes, such as marketing, advertising, and improving customer service. However, if this data falls into the wrong hands, it can be used for malicious purposes, such as identity theft and fraud.Another threat to privacy is the use of surveillance technologies. Governments and law enforcement agencies are increasingly usingsurveillance cameras, GPS tracking devices, and other technologies to monitor people's activities. While these technologies can be used for legitimate purposes, such as preventing crime and ensuring public safety, they can also be abused and used to invade people's privacy.。

Questions 26 to 35 are based on the following passage.Unthinkable as it may be, humanity, every last person, could someday be wiped from the face of the Earth. We’ve learned to worry about asteroids (小行星) and super volcanoes, but the more likely 26 , according to Nick Bostrom, a professor of philosophy at Oxford, is that we humans will destroy ourselves.Professor Bostrom, who directs Oxford’s Future of Humanity Institute, has argued over the course of several papers that human 27 risks are poorly understood and, worse sill, 28 underestimated by society. Some of these existential risks are fairly well known, especially the natural ones. But others are 29 or even exotic. Most worrying to Bostrom is the subset of existential risks that 30 from human technology, a subset that he expects to grow in number and potency over the next century.Despite his concerns about the risks 31 to humans by technological progress, Bostrom is no luddite(科技进步反对者). In fact, he is a longtime 32 of transhumanism—the effort to improve the human condition, and even human nature itself, through technological means. In the long run he sees technology as a bridge, a bridge we humans must cross with great care, in order to reach new and better modes of being. In his work, Bostrom uses the tools of philosophy and mathematics, in 33 , probability theory, to try and determine how we as a 34 might achieve this safe passage. What follows is my conversation with Bostrom about some of the most interesting and worrying existential risks that humanity might 35 in the decades and centuries to come, and about what we can do to make sure we outlast them.Section BDirections:In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it.

Yet on theground, the Bay Area has changed greatly since Tony Bennett left his heart here. Silicon Valley and the tech industry have led the region into a period of unprecedented wealth and innovation. But existing political and land limits have caused an alarming housing crisis and astronomical rise in social and economic difference.B) While the residents of most cities display pride and support for their home industries, drastic marketdistortions in the San Francisco Bay Area have created a boiling resentment in the region towards the tech industry. A vocal minority is even calling on officials to punish those who are benefitting from the economic and housing boom. If this boom and its consequences are not resolved, a drastic increase in social and economic difference may have a profound impact on the region for generations.A history and analysis of this transformation may hold invaluable insights about the opportunities.Perils of tech cities are currently being cultivated across the US, and indeed around the world.C) According to a recent study, San Francisco ranks first in California for economic difference. Theaverage income of the top 1% of households in the city averages $3.6 million. This is 44 times the average income of those at the bottom, which stands at $81,094. The top 1% of the San Francisco peninsula’s share of total income now extends to 30.8% of the region’s income. This was a dramatic jump from 1989, where it stood at 15.8%.D) The region’s economy h as been fundamentally transformed by the technology industry springingfrom Silicon Valley. Policies pushed by Mayor Ed Lee provided tax breaks for tech companies to set up shop along the city’s long-neglected Mid-Market area. The city is now home to Twitter, Uber, Airbnb, Pinterest, Dropbox and others. In short, the Bay Area has become a global magnet for those with specialized skills, which has in turn helped fuel economic enthusiasm, and this economic growth has reduced unemployment to 3.4%, an admirable feat.E) In spite of all that, the strength of recent job growth, combined with policies that have traditionallylimited housing development in the city and throughout the peninsula, did not help ease the affordability crisis. In 2015 alone, the Bay Area added 64,000 in jobs. In the same year, only 5,000 new homes were built.F) With the average house in the city costing over $1.25 million and average flat prices over $1.11million, the minimum qualifying income to purchase a house has increased to $254,000. Considering that the average household income in the city currently stands at around $80,000, it is not an exaggeration to say that the dream of home ownership is now beyond the grasp of the vast majority of today’s people who rent.G) For generations, the stability and prosperity of the American middle class has been anchored by homeownership. Studies have consistently shown that the value of land has overtaken overall income growth, thus providing a huge advantage to property owners as a vehicle of wealth building. When home prices soar above the reach of most households, the gap between the rich and the poor dramatically increases.H) If contributing factors leading to housing becoming less than affordable are not resolved overmultiple generation s, a small elite control a vast share of the country’s total wealth. The result? A society where the threat of class warfare would loom large. A society’s level of happiness is tied less to measures of quantitative wealth and more to measures of qualitative wealth. This means that how a person judges their security in comparison to their neighbors’ has more of an impact on their happiness than their objective standard of living. At the same time, when a system no longer provides opportunities for the majority to participate in wealth building, it not only robs those who are excluded from opportunities, but also deprives them of their dignity.I) San Francisco and the Bay Area have long been committed to values which embrace inclusion andrejection of mainstream culture. To see these values coming apart so publicly adds insult to injury fora region once defined by its progressive social fabric. In the face of resentment, it is human to wantrevenge. But deteriorating policies such as heavily taxing technology companies or real estate developers are not likely to shift the balance.J) The housing crisis is caused by two primary factors: the growing desirability of the Bay Area as a place to live due to its excellent economy, and our limited housing stock. Although the city is experiencing an unprecedented boom in new housing, more units are sorely needed. Protection policies were originally designed to suppress bad development and boost historic preservation in our urban areas. Now too many developers are experiencing excessive delays. Meanwhile, there are the land limitations of the Bay Area to consider. The region is surrounded by water and mountains. Local governments need to aid development as well. This means increasing housing density throughout theregion and building upwards while streamlining the approval process.K) Real estate alone will not solve the problem, of course. Transportation, too, needs to be updated and infrastructure extended to link distant regions to Silicon Valley and the city. We need to build an effective high-speed commuting system linking the high-priced and crowed Bay Area with the low-priced and low-density Central Valley. This would dramatically reduce travel times. And based on the operating speeds of hovering trains used in countries such as Japan or Spain, high-speed rail could shorten the time to travel between San Francisco and California’s capitol, Sacramento, or from Stockton to San Jose, to under 30 minutes. This system would bring once distant regions within reasonable commute to heavy job centers. The city also needs to update existing transportation routes combined with smart home-building policies that dramatically increase housing density in areas surrounding high-speed rail stations. By doing so, we will be able to build affordable housing within acceptable commuting distances for a significant bulk of the workforce.L) Our threatening housing crisis forces the difficult question of what type of society we would like to be. Will it be one where elites command the vast bulk of wealth and regional culture is defined by a aggressive business world? We were recently treated to a taste of the latter, when local tech employee Justin Keller wrote an open letter to the city complaining about having to see homeless people on his way to work.M) It doesn’t have to be this way. But solutions need to be implemented now, before angry crowds grow from a nuisance to serious concern. It may take less than you might think. And in fact, the solutions to our housing crisis are already fairly clear. We need to increase the density of housing units. We need to use existing technology to shorten travel times and break the land limits. There is a way to solve complex social and economic problems without abandoning social responsibility. This is the Bay Area’s opportunity to prove that it can innovate more than just technology.36. T he higher rate of employment, combined with limited housing supply, did not make it any easier tobuy a house.37. O ne way to deal with the housing crisis is for the government to simplify the approval procedures forhousing projects.38. R esidents of the San Francisco Bay Area strongly resent the tech industry because of the economicinequality it has contributed to.39. T he fast rise in the prices of land and houses increases the economic inequality among people.40. S an Francisco city government offered tax benefits to attract tech companies to establish operationsin a less developed area.41. I nnovative solutions to social and economic problems should be introduced before it is too late.42. W hen people compare their own living standard with others’, it has a greater impact on their sense ofcontentment.43. S an Francisco has been found to have the biggest income gap in California between the rich and thepoor.44. I mproved transport networks connecting the city to distant outlying areas will also help solve thehousing crisis.45. A verage incomes in the Bay Area make it virtually impossible for most tenant families to buy ahome.Section CDirections:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Youshould decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with asingle line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.The suggestion that people should aim for dietary diversity by trying to eat a variety of foods has been a basic public health recommendation for decades in the United States everywhere. Now, however, experts are warning that aiming for a diverse diet may actually lead to just eating more calories, and, thus, to obesity. One issue is that people may not interpret "variety" the way nutritionists intend. This problem is highlighted by new research conducted by the American Heart Association. Researchers reviewed all the evidence published related to dietary diversity and saw a correlation between dietary diversity and a greater intake of both healthy and unhealthy foods. This had implications for obesity, as researchers found a greater prevalence of obesity amongst people with a greater dietary diversity.One author of the new study explained that their findings contradict standard dietary advice, as most dietary guidelines around the world include a statement of eating a variety of foods. But this advice does not seem to be supported by science, possibly because there is little agreement about the meaning of “dietary diversity,” which is not clearly and consistently defined. Some experts measure dietary diversity by counting the number of food groups eaten, while others look at the distribution of calories across individual foods, and still others measure how different foods eaten are from each other.Although the findings of this new study contradict standard dietary advice, they do not come as a surprise to all of the researchers involved. Dr. Rao, one of the study authors, noted that after 20 years of experience in the field of obesity, he has observed that people who have a regimented lifestyle and diet tend to be thinner and healthier than people with a wide variety of consumption. This anecdotal evidence matches the conclusions of the study, which found no evidence that dietary diversity promotes healthy body weight or optimal eating patterns, and limited evidence shows that eating a variety of foods is actually associated with consuming more calories, poor eating patterns and weight gain. Further, there is some evidence that a grea ter variety of food options in a single meal may delay people’s feeling of fullness and actually increase how much they eat.Based on their findings, the researchers endorse a diet consisting of a limited number of healthy foods such as vegetables, fruits, grains, and poultry. They also recommend that people simultaneously endeavor to restrict consumption of sweets, sugar and red meat. The researchers stress, however, that their dietary recommendations do not imply dietary diversity is never positive, and that, in the past, diversity in diets of whole, unprocessed food may have actually been very beneficial.46. What has been a standard piece of dietary advice for decades?A. People should diversify what they eat.B. People should have a well-balanced diet.C. People should cultivate a healthy eating habit.D. People should limit calorie intake to avoid obesity.47. What did the new research by the American Heart Association find?A. Unhealthy food makes people gain weight more easily.B. Dietary diversity is positively related to good health.C. People seeking dietary diversity tend to eat more.D. Big eaters are more likely to become overweight.48. What could help to explain the contradiction between the new findings and the common public healthrecommendation?A. There is little consensus on the definition of dietary diversity.B. The methods researchers use to measure nutrition vary greatly.C. Conventional wisdom about diet is seldom supported by science.D. Most dietary guidelines around the world contradict one another.49. What did Dr. Rao find after 20 years of research on obesity?A. There is no clear definition of optimal eating patterns.B. Diversified food intake may not contribute to health.C. Eating patterns and weight gain go hand in hand.D. Dietary diversity promotes healthy body weight.50. What does the passage say about people who eat a great variety of food?A. They are more likely to eat foods beneficial to their health.B. They don’t have any problems getting sufficient nutrition.C. They don’t feel they have had enough until they overeat.D. They tend to consume more sweets, sugar and red meat.Passage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.The ability to make inferences from same and different, once thought to be unique to humans, is viewed as a cornerstone of abstract intelligent thought. A new study, however, has shown that what psychologists call same-different discrimination is present in creatures generally seen as unintelligent: newborn ducklings (小鸭).The study, published Thursday in Science, challenges our idea of what it means to have a birdbrain, said Edward Wasserman, an experimental psychologist at the University of Iowa who wrote an independent review of the study.“In fact, birds are extremely in telligent and our problem pretty much lies in figuring out how to get them to ‘talk’ to us, or tell us how smart they really are,” he said.Antone Martinho and Alex Kacelnik, co-authors of the new paper, devised a clever experiment to better test bird intelligence.First, they took 1-day-old ducklings and exposed them to a pair of moving objects. The two objects were either the same or different in shape or color. Then they exposed each duckling to two entirely new pairs of moving objects.The researchers found that about 70 percent of the ducklings preferred to move toward the pair of objects that had the same shape or color relationship as the first objects they saw. A duckling that was first shown two green spheres, in other words, was more likely to move toward a pair of blue spheres than a mismatched pair of orange and purple spheres.Ducklings go through a rapid learning process called imprinting shortly after birth—it’s what allows them to identify and follow their mothers.These findings suggest that ducklings use abstract relationships between sensory inputs like color, shape, sounds and odor to recognize their mothers, said Dr. Kacelnik.By studying imprinting, the authors of this study have shown for the first time that an animal can learn relationships between concepts without training, said Jeffrey Katz, an experimental psychologist at Auburn University who was not involved in the study.Previous studies have suggested that other animals, including pigeons, dolphins, honeybees and some primates (灵长类动物), can discern same from different, but only after extensive training.Adding ducklings to the list—particularly untrained newborn ducklings—suggests that the ability to compare abstract concepts “is far more necessary to a wider variety of animals’ sur vival than we previously thought,” Dr Martinho said. He believes the ability is so crucial because it helps animals consider context when identifying objects in their environment.It’s clear from this study and others like it that “animals process and appr eciate far more of the intricacies in their world than we’ve ever understood,” Dr. Wasserman said. “We are in a revolutionary phase in terms of our ability to understand the minds of other animals.”51. In what way were humans thought to be unique?A. Being capable of same-different discrimination.B. Being able to distinguish abstract from concrete.C. Being a major source of animal intelligence.D. Being the cornerstone of the creative world.52. What do we learn from the study published in Science?A. Our understanding of the bird world was biased.B. Our communication with birds was far from adequate.C. Our knowledge about bird psychology needs updating.D. Our conception of birds’ intelligence was wrong.53. What did the researchers discover about most ducklings from their experiment?A. They could associate shape with color.B. They could tell whether the objects were the same.C. They preferred colored objects to colorless ones.D. They reacted quickly to moving objects.54. What was novel about the experiment in the study reported in Science?A. The ducklings were compared with other animals.B. It was conducted by experimental psychologists.C. The animals used received no training.D. It used a number of colors and shapes.55. What do we learn from Dr. Wasserman’s comment on the study of animal minds at the end of the passage?A. Research methods are being updated.B. It is getting more and more intricate.C. It is attracting more public attention.D. Remarkable progress is being made.Part IV T ranslation (30 minutes) Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2.张骞(Zhang Qian)是中国第一个伟大的探险家。
