24、reless MotherCWhen Im surfing the Web, I want to be attracted by articles on Europes political history, but I end up reading trivia (琐事) such as a menu from a Michelin restaurant. Why am I not curious about the things I want to be curious about? Curiosity feels as if its outside your control, but if
25、 you understand what causes curiosity, you might be able to direct it a little bit better.Humans will give up the known benefit to explore the unknown. In one experiment, subjects were asked tochoose one of four photos, each carrying some chance of paying a cash prize. Photos appeared again and agai
26、n, so subjects learned to pick the best-paying. But when a novel photo appeared, they chose it quite more often. This preference for novelty is the reason why producers regularly change product packaging and advertising.Were super curious when we sense that the environment offers new information to
27、add to what we already know. Note that your brain calculates what you might learn in the short-termyour long-term interests are ignored. That s why a cardiac surgeon (心脏外科医生) who is excited about her job will find a conference presentation on the operation boring if her brain decides that the talk w
28、ont add to her knowledge. However, when her friend persuades her to attend a lecture on arts, her brain may calculate that this will be a rich source of informationand she finds herself interested.Why not just search for topics you truly want to learn about at present? That sounds logical, but a sea
29、rch for a topic like universe will lead to thousands of results. And there is no way of knowing which offers the just-right match to your present knowledge that will maintain (维持) your curiosity. Youll probably end up like the surgeon at the boring conference talk.Albert Einstein advised a young stu
30、dent to never lose a holy curiosity. But the challenge is changing its focus from something short-lived to something more lasting.28. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. It seems difficult to control our curiosity.B. Its no hard task to fully understand curiosity.C. Trivia can always attract
31、 everyones attention.D. Europes political history is too boring to focus on.29. Why does the cardiac surgeon find attending the art lecture interesting?A. She is tired of her present job.B. She often attends art exhibition.C. She finds it can expand her knowledge.D. She considers it does good to her
32、 work.30. What can we learn from this text?A. Subjects were more likely to choose repeated photos.B. Well-matched results offer no way to maintain our curiosity.C. Einstein suggested it was challenging to awaken the short-term curiosity.D. Keeping our curiosity focused on the long-term interests is
33、quite an effort.第二节 (共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选入能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余项。Which came first, the chicken or the egg? 31Philosophers used it as an excuse to argue about cause and effect. Whats more, its what is known as a paradoxa situation or statement that appears to present contrary facts
34、, both of which can logically be true.Some might say the chicken came first, since you cant have an egg without a chicken to lay it. But others might argue the egg came first, since all chickens begin life inside of an egg. A paradox, right? 32“Itspretty easy to understand,” said Jasmina Wiemann, a
35、scientist at Yale University. “The egg is much older, evolutionarily(进化地) , than the chicken.”Chickens, as we all know, probably became domesticated (驯养) about 10,000 years ago. 33Theseanimals are known as jungle fowl or Gallus. 34Dinosaurs, birds, reptiles and even mammals that lay eggs evolved abo
36、ut 300 million years ago, Wiemann said. This pushes the origins of the egg back even further.By the way, if you thought it strange to see mammals are put into a group with egg-laying animals, you should know that egg-laying is part of our evolutionary history. And female humans today still produce e
37、ggs through a process called ovulation. The soft eggs without shell stay inside of humans. 35A. Eggs existed even long before this.B. This question has its roots in ancient Greece.C. The answer remains mysterious even if you ask a specialist.D. Eatable eggs came into being hundreds of millions of ye
38、ars ago.E. The answer is rather simple if you talk to an ancient expert about it.F. But the animals that they developed from date back to 21 million years ago.G. Even stranger, some mammals still reproduce by laying eggs that survive outside the body.第三部分 英语知识运用 (共两节,满分 50 分)第一节 完形填空 (共 20 小题;每小题 1.

91、ght be able to direct it a little bit better.Humans will give up the known benefit to explore the unknown.

However, when her
94、friend persuades her to attend a lecture on arts, her brain may calculate that this will be a rich source of informationand she finds herself interested.Why not just search for topics you truly want to learn about at present?

99、们对未知事物有好奇心,但这种好奇心一般是短期的,要想维持长时间的好奇心还需要付出努力。21.【解析】主旨题。根据作者自身的例子,本来想浏览政治性新闻,最后注意力放到了一些琐碎的事情上, 加上“Curiosity feels as if its outside your control,”这句话可知,第一段主要讲述了控制我们的好奇心似乎是 一件很困难的事情。故选择 A 选项。21. 【解析】细节题。根据第三段的定位句“However, when her friend persuades her to attend a lecture on arts, her brain may calculat

102、th of which can logically be true.Some might say the chicken came first, since you cant have an egg without a chicken to lay it.

104、300 million years ago, Wiemann said. This pushes the origins of the egg back even further.By the way, if you thought it strange to see mammals are put into a group with egg-laying animals, you should know that egg-laying is part of our evolutionary history. And female humans today still produce eggs
