2018-2019学年When you’re making a split-second decision, waiting a fraction of a second to decide can make a world of difference.Scientists at Columbia University and the University of Pittsburgh found that when making choices between a right and wrong answer, people’s accuracy in making the right decision increased dramatically when they gave themselves a small amount of time. __1___ It’s all about giving our attention enough time to sort out the relevant information from the distracters, says one of the study's co-authors, Vincent Ferrera, an associate professor of (神经科学)at Columbia University Medical Center. “The little extra time to sort out the irrelevant information makes the decision-making more efficient," he says.____2___. They were told which set was their target, and then asked to indicate which direction the .target dots were moving when the distracting set was introduced 一the distracting set either moved in the same direction or the opposite direction of the target dots. The participants performed this task under different conditions: in some experiments they aimed for accuracy, in others, for speed.Ferrera and his colleagues found that when the participants had a little more 1 as 50 milliseconds to make their decision, their accuracy improved. The reason? ___3___. "If you takeattention offline, you go from almost perfect accuracy to almost chance accuracy," he says.That doesn’t mean taking longer to decide necessarily leads to a better choice. With more time, there's more chance for distracting and even misleading information to filter into the process, confusing the situation. Ferrera's findings suggest that simply accumulating more and more information isn't always helpful. "What we're saying is that before you start gathering evidence, take a short moment to determine whether that evidence is really relevant to the decision you are making,” he says."___4___"答案:ACEB。

"Dad, why did The Wild Robot have to be so sad?" He tearfully asked me.The story is set on a remote island, where a robot named Roz learns to survive and communicate with the island's creatures, and becomes part of the community. For my son, it was the first book he discovered on his own; the first to impact him with the mix of tragedy (悲剧) and joy.When I finished the book, I knew why Henry loved it. In our book club discussion, he described how Brown's pictures and words had made the story feel real. When talking about its final scenes, where Roz leaves to find repairs for her injured body, Henry cried again. His previous reading experiences had cheerful, "happily-ever-after" endings, but this book introduced him to the beauty of complex emotions. I tried to explain low sadness can enhance the meaning of happy moments, but failed to fully convince him.Once our discussion ended, Henry requested to buy The Wild Robot Escapes and instantly fell in love with it. He read the first two books repeatedly, so you can imagine his excitement when we finally got a copy of The Wild Robot Protects.We both agree il is worth the wait. Roz leaves the island again to stop an underwater threat: "the poison tide. " Brown expertly balances between breathtaking adventure and unsettling ideas-not just happiness and sadness, but also, given the climate-change undercurrents, hope and despair.And, here's something special about Roz: her physical clumsiness and confusion about life, conveyed through her expressive eyes' and downturned mouth. Her story reflects the challenges of surviving in a strange place, much like a child's journey. Readers love Roz. They learn from her. Even better, they learn alongside her. Roz gave Henry the power to push through the first book's sad parts, getting him ready to appreciate that, sometimes, sadness isn't a bad thing to feel.24. What drove the author to read The Wild Robot?A. Its tragic ending.B. Henry's tearful recommendation.C. Its attractive cover.D. Henry's emotional response to it.25. What is one theme of The Wild Robot Protects?A. Family and community.B. Concerns of global issues.C. Exploration of the ocean.D. Man-robot relationship.26. What makes Roz in the trilogy special?A. Her childlike expressions.B. Her robotic power.C. Her struggling experiences.D. Her adventurous spirit.27. Which message does this text seem to communicate?A. Misfortune inspires great literary works.B. Robot stories work like magic on children.C. Book discussions help kids survive tragedies.D. Reading literature facilitates personal growth.CWhen adult humans meet a baby, many can't help speaking in a higher-pitched (更高音的), sing-songy voice. This shift, known as parentese, is not unique to humans it has also been observed in animals like monkeys and gorillas. Now, scientists are adding one more species to that list: bottlenose dolphins.Dolphins are intelligent animals that live and hunt in groups. They communicate in a unique way: every individual produces its own signature sound that acts much like an ID card, usually by its first birthday. But how does each come up with its distinctive whistle? For babies, it might have something to do with listening to Mum. To solve this mystery, researchers examined the sounds mother dolphins, make.Scientists studied 34 years' worth of recordings of sounds made by 19 female bottlenose dolphins. When the mother dolphins were near their young, they continued to make their signature sound, but at a higher frequency. They also used a wider range of frequencies than they did when their babies were not nearby.This discovery suggests that using these modifications mother dolphins assist their young in learning how to produce these calls themselves. Since dolphin babies often spend some years with their mothers before living on their own, it makes sense that this adaptation would help them learn to communicate. At the very least, the higher-pitched whistle likely gets the babies' attention. "It's important for a baby to know, "Oh, Mum's talking to me now, " says marine biologist June Mann.This kind of research could help us understand how language developed in humans. "It is absolutely essential to have basic knowledge about other species and how they communicate, " says Mann. "I would be really interested to see whether dolphins also change their sounds when interacting with babies of others, which is what happens in humans. "28. What do the underlined words "this mystery" refer to in paragraph 2?A. Why dolphins live and play in groups.B. How dolphins develop their unique sounds.C. What aspects of intelligence dolphins possess.D. Whether dolphins can use parentese like humans.29. How did the researchers carry out their study of dolphins?A. By analyzing mother dolphins' sound features.B. By recording parent-child interaction frequency.C. By measuring the distance between parent and child.D. By examining the speech organs of mother dolphins.30. What is a suggested reason why dolphin mothers use parentese with their young?A. To help them learn to talk.B. To teach them bunting skills.C. To express worry and care.D. To distract their attention.31. What is the purpose of the text?A. To compare the parentese of humans and dolphins.B. To illustrate the development of dolphin intelligence.C. To share new findings about dolphin communication.D. To highlight the value of studying dolphins' language.DThere's a classic short story in which a young man travels years ahead and meets his future self. Narratives like this have always been related to science fiction. But what if you could meet your future self?I'm a psychologist and professor. My research over the past 15 years isn't far from this theme. I've largely focused on how people think about and relate to their future selves, and explored the reasons why we have such a hard time making long-terra decisions. In my research, I've learnt thatwe often imagine our future selves like strangers, which can impede us in making long-term choices. One way to bridge the emotional gap is to think of future selves in more concrete and vivid ways, like writing letters to and from one's future self, which can strengthen the connection between current and future selves.Admittedly, having people engage in an imagined conversation is a far cry from actually meeting one's future self. But it's believed that far richer interactions may happen in the near future through artificial intelligence (AT). It wouldn't be predicting exactly what choices you'd make. It'd be more about showing your potential, based on the lives of people similar to you: not just one possible life for you, but rather, the most possible life path for you. Such interactions could offer valuable insights into our potential future selves.So, to return to my original question: if you could time-travel to meet your future self, what aspects of your life world you want to know more about? I realized, through thorough reflections, that the most powerful questions would be ones that helped me make better choices today -- questions exploring personal growth, regrets and unfulfilled actions.Actually, you don't need to wait for time travel or advanced AI for answers that you can act on. Through my research, I've learnt that simply taking a bit of time to picture this meeting can help you make better choices now. All you need is a little imagination, and the willingness to put yourself in the shoes of a person you currently treat as a stranger.32. Why is it difficult for people to make long-term decisions according to the author?A. Technology for time travel is not available.B. Strangers cannot help with decision-making.C. Writing letters to one's future self is impractical.D. People find it hard to connect with their distant selves.33. What does the underlined phrase "a far cry from" mean in paragraph 3?A. contradictory toB. very different fromC. not as convenient asD. less popular than34. Which question would the author most likely ask his future self?A. Why hasn't my hard work ever paid off?B. What can AI do to help people become better persons?C. If given the chance, what would you have done differently?D. How can I succeed without going through all the difficulties in life?35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Time travel: What if you met your future self?B. My research: How do people view their future selves?C. Emotional gap: Why can't we talk with our future selves?D. Artificial intelligence: Is it possible to meet your future self?第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

"It explains the wonders of the universe, " said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong last week.Hawking, 64, is probably the world's most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He is an expert on black holes. He has put his whole life into digging into the beginning (and the end )of the universe."My goal is simple, " Hawking once said. "It is to completely understand the universe, why it is and why it is there at all."Hawking has a bad illness that stops him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking.Now he sits on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves two fingers to control the computer's mouse. He selects his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer (音响合成器)."I have had the disease for most of my life, " Hawking once said. "Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work."Although Hawking is such a disabled man, he made great achievements. He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years.

"If you carry on, one day something good will happen." So I think my mother is the most beautiful mother in the world. Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio, then work my way up to a sports announcer. I drove a car to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station. But I was turned down every time.In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn't risk hiring an inexperienced person. "Go out in the countryside and find a small station that'll give you a chance, " she said. I went back home to Dixon, illinois. While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete (运动员)to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied (申请). The job sounded just right for me. But I wasn't hired.My disappintment must have shown. "Everthing happens for the best." Mom reminded me.Dad offered me the car to hunt a job. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, lowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer. As I left his office, I was frustrated (挫折). I asked aloud, "How can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he can't get a job in a radio station? "I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, "What was that you sald about sports? Do you know anything about football? " Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an imaginary game.On my way home, I thought of my mother's words "If you carry on, one day something good will happen."14 A.received B.refysed C.slowed down D.shutwhat does the underlined word "turned down" mean in Chinese?(1)A.B.C.D.Why couldn't the writer find a job at big radio stations?Because he was too young.Because he wasn't a local athlete.Because he didn't get college education.Because he hadn't got enough experience.(2)A.cbda B.cbad C.bcda D.bcadWhich of the following is the correct order of events?a.

When Lina was awoken by the sound of thunder, she was alone on the island. The air was cool and bullfrogs croaked. It was that brief moment when the summer sun had set but the stars hadn't yet appeared. Lina rubbed her eyes and looked around. "Hello?” she called. "Celia? Marie?" There was no response. The moon was rising now, shedding light on the island. They had always called it “Forgotten Island” because no one but they seemed to remember its existence. It wasn't on any of the maps they could find, and even the forest rangers didn't know about it. Lina loved that the island, hidden in a heavily-wooded side stream of the river, was a secret between the three friends - her, Celia, and Marie. But now Lina was here alone, and it was night. Worse still, it was her own fault. "Come on, Lina, let Marie row the boat, "Celia had said. Marie was two years older than Lina, but she was a hopeless rower. That's why Lina refused and rowed the boat to the island. The argument that followed the refusal took the usual form. Celia took Marie's side, as she always did. Lina had exploded and yelled at them to just leave. So they got back in the boat and left. A bolt of lightning crossed the darkened sky, accompanied by a deafening thunder clap. The storm was here. As the first cold raindrop slid down her neck, Lina's mind returned to her current problem. She was stuck here by herself. She just hoped she didn't become as forgotten as the island. The thought of it sent a chill ( 寒意 ) down her back. Suddenly, Lina spotted something in the water. It was a boat, and inside it were Marie, Celia, and Marie's dad, who was steering through the fast flowing waters. As the boat approached, they saw Lina waving and the worried expressions on their faces turned to relief. In her excitement Lina jumped into the river. Only once she was in the icy water did she remember how fast the water was moving. Luckily a strong arm reached into the water and pulled her out. She smiled weakly at Marie's dad and, without a word, hugged Celia and Marie. They didn't seem to mind becoming wet.
