13、 and called me unannounced.It was thrilling, this unscheduled, spontaneous conversation without a purpose or the weight of a formal (12) _. It felt like wheeling over to someone in the office to hear a joke.I was reminded of that larger orbit of friendships outside the inner core of those we still s

14、ee in person, usually because we live with them. Think about all those relationships once sustained by serendipity and proximity, now starved by a year of social distancing. In what may be the worlds largest sociological experiment, many of us have had to rely almost completely on technology to tend

15、 these connections. We now have a whole new cadre of Appointment Friendships. And even with (13) _ scheduling, its not really enough.

With video, that uncanny valley of almost being t

18、here tends to make you long for the real thing. The UNLV researchers also reported that social media posting, (18) _ and sharing was the “modality most strongly associated with stress. “ No one is less surprised about all this than Sherry Turkle, a clinical psychologist at M.I.T. Shes been studying

19、how technology affects our capacity for empathy and connection since the first Apple computer showed up with a smiley face, reporting her findings in two seminal books “Reclaiming Conversation” and “Alone Together.” When I spoke to her a few weeks ago, shed just published her memoir, “The Empathy Di

30、ed statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read(A)Why make a film about Ned Kelly? More ingenious crime than those committed by the reckless Australian bandit are reported

31、very day. What is there in Ned Kelly to justify dragging the mesmeric Mick Jagger so far into the Australian bush and away from his natural haunts? The answer is that the film makers know we always fall for a bandit, and Jagger is set to do for bold Ned Kelly what Brando once did for the arrogant Em

32、iliano Zapata.The bandit inhabits a special realm of legend where his deeds are embroidered by others; where his death rather than his life is considered beyond belief; where the men who bring him to“justice” are afflicted with doubts about their role.The bandits had a role to play as definite as th

33、at of the authorities who condemned them. These were men in conflict with authority, and, in the absence of strong law or the idea of loyal opposition, they took to the hills. Even there, however, many of them obeyed certain unwritten rules.There robbers, who claimed to be something more than mere t

34、hieves, had in common, firstly, a sense of loyalty and identity with the peasants they came from. They didnt steal the peasants harvest; they did steal the lords.And certain characteristics seem to apply to “social bandits” whether they were in Sicily or Peru. They were generally young men under the

35、 age of marriage, predictably the best age for dissidence. Some were simply the surplus male population who had to look for another source of income; others were runway serfs or ex-soldiers; a minority, though the most interesting, were outstanding men who were unwilling to accept the meek and passi

36、ve role of peasant.They usually operated in bands between ten and twenty strong and relied for survival on difficult terrain and bad transport. And bandits proposed best where authority was merely local over the next hill and they were free. Unlike the general run of peasantry they had a taste for f

37、lamboyant dress and gesture; but they usually shared the peasants religious beliefs and superstitions.The first sign of a man caught up in the Robin Hood syndrome was when he started out, forced into outlawry as a victim of injustice; and when he then set out to “right wrongs”, first his own and the

38、n other peoples. The classic bandit then “take from the rich and gives to the poor” in conformity with his own sense of social justice; he never kills except in self-defense or justifiable place; his people admire and help to protect him; he dies through the treason of one of them; he behaves as of

39、invisible and invulnerable; he is a “loyalist”, never the enemy of the king but only of the local oppressors.None of the bandits lived up fully to this image of the “noble robber” and for many the claim of larger motives was often a delusion.Yet amazingly, many of these violent men did behave at lea

40、st half the time in accordance with this idealist pattern. Pancho Villa in Mexico and Salvatore Giuliano in Italy began their careers harshly victimized. Many of their charitable acts later became legends. The bandit in the real world is rooted in peasant society and when its simple agricultural sys

41、tem is left behind so is he. But the tales and legends, the books and films continue to appear for an audience that is neither peasant nor bandit. In some ways the characters and deeds of the great bandits could so readily be the stuff of grand opera Don Jose on “Carmen” is based on the Andalusian b

42、andit El Empranillo. But they are perhaps more at home in folk songs, in popular tales and the ritual dramas of films. When we sit in the darkness of the cinema to watch the bold deeds of Ned Kelly we are caught up in admiration for their strong individuality, their simple gesture of protest, their

43、passion for justice and their confidence that they cannot be beaten. This sustains us nearly as much as it did the almost hopeless people from whom they sprang.36. Which of the following words is NOT intended to suggest approval of bandits?A. Bold (Para. 1).B. Claimed (Para. 4).C. Legend (Para. 2).D

44、. Loyalty (Para. 4).37. Of the following reasons which is the LEAST likely one for becoming bandits?A. They liked theatrical clothes and behavior.B. They wanted to help the poor country folk.C. They were unwilling to accept injustice.D. They had very few careers open to them.38. “began their careers

45、 harshly victimized” (Par. 9) means that they _.A. had received excessive ill-treatmentB. were severely punished for their crimesC. took to violence through a sense of injusticeD. were misunderstood by their parents and friends39. What has made bandits suitable as film heroes is that they_.A. are su

46、re they are invincibleB. possess a theatrical qualityC. retain the virtues of a peasant societyD. protest against injustice and inequality(B)Literary Festivals across the WoldLondon Book FairTime: held annually in April for three daysPlace: London, U.K.The London Book Fair is a part of the London Bo

S. has experienced a shortage of registered nurses. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that while the number of nurses will

57、 increase by 19 percent by 2022, demand will grow faster than supply, and that there will be over one million unfilled nursing jobs by then.So whats the solution? Robots.Japan is ahead of the curve when it comes to this trend. Toyohashi University of Technology has developed Terapio, a robotic medic

58、al cart that can make hospital rounds, deliver medications and other items, and retrieve records. It follows a specific individual, such as a doctor or nurse, who can use it to record and access patient data. This type of robot will likely be one of the first to be implemented in hospitals because i

59、t has fairly minimal patient contact.Robots capable of social engagement help with loneliness as well as cognitive functioning, but the robot itself doesnt have to engage directlyit can serve as an intermediary for human communication. Telepresence robots such as MantaroBot, Vgo, and Giraff can be c

60、ontrolled through a computer, smartphone, or tablet, allowing family members or doctors to remotely monitor patients or Skype them, often via a screen where the robots face would be. If you cant get to the nursing home to visit grandma, you can use a telepresence robot to hang out with her. A 2016 s

61、tudy found that users had a consistently positive attitude about the Giraff robots ability to enhance communication and decrease feelings of loneliness.A robots appearance affects its ability to successfully interact with humans, which is why the RIKEN-TRI Collaboration Center for Human-Interactive

62、Robot Research decided to develop a robotic nurse that looks like a huge teddy bear. RIBA (Robot for Interactive Body Assistance), also known as Robear, can help patients into and out of wheelchairs and beds with its strong arms.Its important to note that robotic nurses dont decide courses of treatm

63、ent or make diagnoses (though robot doctors and surgeons may not be far off). Instead, they perform routine and laborious tasks, freeing nurses up to attend to patients with immediate needs. This is one industry where it seems the integration of robots will lead to collaboration, not replacement.43.

64、 What does the author say about Japan?A) It delivers the best medications for the elderly.B) It takes the lead in providing robotic care.C) It provides retraining for registered nurses.D) It sets the trend in future robotics technology.44.

71、different university laboratories have developed tests that will reveal the entirety of a babys genetic code using just a blood sample from the mother plus a drop of saliva(唾液)from the father. Prenatal(出生前的) whole-genome sequencing will provide volumes of information beyond the currently available t

72、ests exclusively for genetic disorders such as Downs syndrome or Tay-Saches disease. The three billion units of code furnished in the new tests will also dwarf(使相形见的) the relative trickle(零散) of information provided by consumer gene-testing services such as 23andMie, which currently look only at per

73、haps about one million locations in the genome. (48) _ Without careful planning, the new prenatal genetics might rob. a child of the chance to make decisions best left until adulthood- whether or not to learn, for instance, if a mutation(突变) predicts the inevitability of Huntingtons disease 20 years

74、 hence. (49) _ Similar laissez faire(放任) action to prenatal whole-genome testing could portend(预示) tragedy. Ultimately certain agency will need to develop a comprehensive policy on prenatal whole genome testing. Bioethics scholars wrote an analysis last summer that calls on the medical community to

75、develop a guide to the most relevant genomic data for future parents. (50) _ Without access to a much higher level of refined expertise, the secrets of our offsprings genetic code will continue to remain an unnerving cipher - or worse.IV Summary Writing Directions: Read the following passage.
