20、modern psychology, defined psychology as “the science of mental life” and this definition provides a good starting point for our understanding even today. We all have a mental life and therefore have some idea about what this means, even though it can be studied in rats or monkeys as well as in peop
21、le and the concept remains difficult to understand.Like most psychologists, William James was particularly interested in human psychology, which he thought consisted of certain basic elements: thoughts and feelings, a physical world which exists in time and space, and a way of knowing about these th
22、ings. For each of us, this knowledge is primarily personal and private. It comes from our own thoughts, feelings and experience of the world, and may or may not be influenced by scientific facts about things. For this reason, it is easy for us to make judgments about psycho1ogical matters using our
23、own experience as a standard. We behave as amateur psychologists when we offer opinions on complex psychological phenomena. However, problems arise when two people understand these things differently. Formal psychology attempts to provide methods for deciding which explanations are most likely to be
24、 correct, or for determining the circumstances under which each applies. The work of psychologists helps us distinguish between inside information, which is subjective, and may be prejudiced and unreliable, and the facts: between our predictions and what is “true” in scientific terms.Psychology, as
25、defined by William James, is about the mind or brain, but although psychologists do study the brain, we do not understand nearly enough about its workings to he able to comprehend the part that it plays in the experience and expression of our hopes, fears, and wishes, or in our behavior during exper
26、iences as varied as giving birth or watching a football match. Indeed, it is rarely possible to study the brain directly. So, psychologists have discovered more by studying our behavior, and by using their observations to obtain hypotheses (假设) about what is going on inside us._.36. The first paragr
27、aph is mainly about _.A. the founder of modem psychology B. the definition of psychologyC. the complexity of psychology D. the influence of psychology37. From Paragraph 2, we can know that problems arise because _.A. of the difference between inside information and the factsB. of different thoughts
28、and feelings about psychologyC. people usually make judgments based on their own ideasD. amateur psychologists cannot use scientific terms38. According to the passage, psychologists study the brain mainly _.A. in a direct way B. with their own experienceC. by observing how it works D. by watching pe
29、oples behavior39. Which of the following can be the first sentence in the fourth paragraph?A. Psychology is also about the ways people use their mental abilities to operate in the world around them.B. William James is considered to be the greatest psychologist in the 1890s.C. Psychology suggests tha
30、t living beings adapt to a changing environment so that they can survive.D. It is important for psychologists, as well as ordinary people, to be, aware of the reasons.BCDABItem 1: JK Rowling, the Harry Potter author, has signed a publishing deal with Little Brown, to release her first ever novel for
31、 adults. The deal means that Rowlings long-standing relationship with Bloomsbury, the London-based publisher that launched the Harry Potter books, has come to an end, at least in terms of new works by the author. Rowling, who is worth an estimated 530 million, said that the new novel will be nothing
32、 like the Harry Potter series, which sold over 30 million copies in the UK alone. She said that with the move from childrens to adult fiction, a move to a new publisher seemed like a logical step. MoreItem 2: Chinas hurdler Liu Xiang was disqualified Thursday at the Stockholm indoor athletics tourna
33、ment due to false start, giving his rival Dayron Robles of Cuba an easy win of 7.66 seconds. Liu was not willing to explain the reason of his false start, but he told Xinhua that it was not related to his foot injury. Another Cuban Orlando Ortega followed in 7.68 seconds and Balazs Baji of Hungary s
34、tood third in 7.70 seconds. Last Saturday, Liu won the mens 60m hurdle final in 7.41 seconds at the Birmingham indoor tournament, setting a new Asian record. He said Wednesday that he hoped to have an even better performance than he did in Birmingham at the Stockholm indoor tournament. MoreItem 3: F
35、ormer NBA star and current Bobcats owner Michael Jordan filed suit in a Chinese court against Qiaodan Sports Company Limited, a sportswear and footwear manufacturer, for the use of his name without permission. Jordan says This complaint is not about money, its about principle and protecting my name.
36、 The Chinese company has registered and uses the name Qiaodan. Jordan has been known in China since he gained widespread popularity in the mid-1980s. MoreItem 4: A commuter train crashed at a busy central station in Buenos Aires on Wednesday, killing 49 passengers and injuring more than 600 people,
37、the deadliest in a series of train accidents in Argentina over the past years. The train crashed at about 8:30 a.m. at its final stop at the Once Station, not far from downtown Buenos Aires. The train was carrying more than 800 passengers and traveling at an estimated 16 miles per hour when it enter

If this happens often you probably have a pretty capable working memory and a sharper brain, new research suggests.This mind wandering, it seems, actually gives your working memory a
41、 workout. Working memory is the mental work space that allows the brain to juggle multiple thoughts at the same time. The more working memory a person has, the more daydreaming they can do without forgetting the task at hand.Researchers studied groups of people from the University of WisconsinMadiso
42、n community, ranging in age from 18 to 65. The volunteers were asked to perform simple tasks, like pressing a button every time they took a breath or clicking in response to a letter popping up on a computer screen; these tasks were so easy that their minds were likely to wander, the researchers fig
43、ured.The researchers checked in periodically, asking the participants if their minds were on task or wandering. When the task was over, they measured each participants working memory capacity by having them remember letters while doing math questions. Though all participants performed well on the ta
44、sk, the researchers noticed that the individuals who indicated their minds had wandered more than others also scored higher on the working memory test.“What this study seems to suggest is that, when circumstances for the task arent very difficult, people who have additional working memory resources
45、allocate them to think about things other than what theyre doing，” said Jonathan Smallwood, a study researcher of the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitve and Brain Science.When our minds run out of working memory, these offtopic thoughts can take the main stage without us consciously meaning the
46、m to; for instance, arriving at home with no memory of the actual trip, or suddenly realizing that theyve turned several pages in a book without understanding any of the words.“Its almost like your attention was so absorbed in the mind wandering that there wasnt any left over to remember your goal t
47、o read，” study researcher Daniel Levinson, said in a statement.People with overall higher working memory were better able to stay focused when the task at hand required it. Those who had low working memory often had their thoughts drift away from the task, and did less well at it.The findings add to
48、 past research suggesting these mind drifts can be positive moments. For instance, daydreaming has often been associated with creativityresearchers think that our most creative and inventive moments come when daydreaming. Its likely that the most intelligent among us also have high levels of working
49、 memory, Levinson noted.43. The word “juggle” in the second paragraph can be replaced by “_”A. handle B. search C. understand D. distribute44. What can be concluded from Jonathan Smallwoods words?A. People who often have daydreams probably own a pretty capable working memory.B. On the working memory
50、 test, people with wandering minds will get high score.C. Absorbed in the mind wandering, your attention left no space for your goal.D. Dealing with some easy jobs, people with higher working memory will daydream.45. What is the best title of the passage?A. Mind drifts are always positive. B. Daydre
51、aming is good for the mind.C. Creative moments come with working memory.D. The more daydreaming, the more effectively one works.ADBDDo you remember the good old days? Innocent times spent sharing documents and executable files without a care in the world. Okay, every month or so you might encounter
52、a boot sector virus but they were easy to deal with even if the anti-virus software didnt pick them up. But those long lazy summers disappeared too fast. Macro viruses made Information Technology (IT) administrators grow up fast as they realized there was a type of virus which could spread very quic
53、kly throughout an organization. It wasnt unusual to find hundreds of computers within personal company infected by viruses transmitted via email attachments. The IT staff were amongst the fittest departments in your company, running from Personal Computer (PC) to the next cleaning them up. There had
54、 to be a better way. Companies now realize that viruses arent urban myths, and can have a serious impact on their operations. They invest in anti-virus software on the desktops, servers and email gateways and even put in place procedures to ensure their anti-virus is up-to-date with the very latest
55、detection routines. It sounds like companies have put in place adequate defenses to protect against viruses. But have they? Anti-virus software detects most of the viruses your users are likely to encounter often without the user even knowing. However, the software must be updated regularly, prefera
56、bly daily in any large company. Even then, a very new virus can infect your users. With the rapid transmission of files through networks and the Internet, a virus can spread a considerable distance before it can be identified and protected against. Fortunately, only a few viruses ever do this but th
57、e likes of Melissa and the Love Bug can inflict serious damage before their progress is stopped. Whilst employees become suddenly aware during the ensuing media excitement, they soon forget about the virus threat as the stories disappear from the news headlines. This is the danger. Complacency can s
58、et in when there is no perceived action on the virus front with no global crisis, and the importance of being vigilant about viruses recedes in your users minds. They forget what the big deal was in the first place after all, anti-virus software deals with the viruses, doesnt it? And isnt it the IT
59、departments job to look after this sort of thing? Before you know it your users are opening unsolicited attachments once more, downloading unauthorized software, and putting your companys data and credibility at risk. All because the users think that they are working in a safe environment. Employees
60、 see anti-virus software, firewalls and IT departments as guarantees that their computers will work and be safe. Of course, there arent any guarantees. Anti-virus software plays one, albeit important, part in the defense of your company from malicious attack but the security of your computer system
61、is only as strong as the weakest link. And that, more often than not, is the human factor. No employer wants to come across as a killjoy or an ogre. Most will willingly accept that the happiest employees are those who feel that they are respected and trusted by their employer. Many companies accept
62、that employees will send and receive a certain amount of personal email and make the odd personal telephone call. However, the worry comes when employees start risking company security in pursuit of personal amusement. Funny screensavers and games downloaded from the Internet can seem harmless enoug
63、h but they could easily be harboring a dangerous virus. Software downloaded from the net is often unlicensed and unsupported, and may cause conflicts with existing software in use at your company. Unlicensed, pirated software is an ideal vector for a computer virus. Virus writers and hackers often u
64、se such software as the ideal kick-start for their virus distribution. It is vitally important that employees be educated about the virus threat but this cannot be a one-off event. The potential threat should always be in the back of an employees mind and precautionary measures should be taken as a
65、matter of course. There is no harm in reminding people about what could happen if they let their guard down. In the end, education is the key to a virus-free environment and this is a continual process. It may not be the most exciting thing on the agenda but it works. The lesson is simple. You can h
66、ave the best software in the world protecting your companys defenses; you can even be the biggest IT company in the world; but without your users practicing safe computing they will always be the weakest link. 46. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage? A. Employees welc
67、ome the free software available on the Internet and they download a lot of it. B. Employees should be constantly warned about virus threats to ensure the normal functioning of the companys computer system. C. Employees like to take advantage of the facilities in their companies to handle their perso
68、nal matters. D. Employees take anti-virus software, firewalls and IT staff as guarantees for the normal functioning of their PCs.47.Those long lazy summers in paragraph 2 refers to _. A. the time when people were not too much bothered by computer viruses B. the time when people used free documents a
69、nd executable files C. the time when people could take a long nap after lunch D. the time when people frequently encountered different boot sector viruses48. It can be concluded that _. A. computer virus threats have never been given enough attention B. computer viruses can be avoided for good with
70、good anti-virus software C. computer virus threats have always been in the mind of computer users D. computer viruses can never be avoided even when IT staff regularly update software49. Employers are likely to do all of the following except that _. A. they criticize their employees for what they do
71、nt do well B. they allow their employees to make some personal telephone calls C. they do what they can to make their employees feel respected and trusted D. they allow their employees to send and receive some personal email50. The best way to minimize the negative influence that computer viruses ma
72、y bring is _. A. to get the best, up-to-date software B. to have the best IT department C. to educate computer users D. to download free software BADAC四任务型阅读Disability aids are vital to those who suffer problems with executing work with two hands. These are people who have been disabled due to some
73、major sickness or some other problems. In order to help them carry on their work in the normal way, disability aids are manufactured. This helps them make their life a lot easier than what it would have been without these aids. The kind of disability aids that an individual might require depends on
74、the person only. It is the problem that a person faces that decides the aids that he/she will use for carrying out their respective jobs. The following is the list of a few disability aids that come of significant use.The first and foremost aid is the stocking aid, aiding the individuals suffering f
75、rom the problem of bending down to reach the foot and wear their own socks. These stocking aids have a gutter(槽) that is made up of plastic material. These gutters are shaped in a certain way along with the attachment of cotton tapes in it. The sock is then put over the gutter. The foot is placed in
76、side the gutter. The cotton tapes help in pulling the socks up the leg and subsequently the sock. In this manner, the sock is worn by a person who has problems wearing it by bending ones back and reaching the foot.There are openers that help the people who have problems with their hands or wrists to
77、 open bottles of ketchup, jam and other such bottles and jars that necessitates the use of hands and fingers. The third type of disability aids that comes to our minds are lifts. Now what are lifts? Lifts are certain machines that help in lifting people from specific areas, such as a bathtub or a se
78、t of stairs. These lifts are of varied types and come for numerous applications. It is for the individual to decide the type that he/she requires to use.For people, who have problems in balancing their upper bodies in a stable manner, there is something known as grab rails. These grab rails are inst
79、alled for those who have mobility problems in their upper bodies. These rails come in varieties of shapes, sizes and angles. These grab rails are available to home users as well, in their different variations. One can purchase and fix one to their homes according to ones specificities. These grab ra
80、ils require the act of screwing and drilling in order to fix them to their appropriate place. The prices of these rails also vary according to the variation of their shapes and sizes. A portable book holder is a much sought-after disability aid. It can be used by anybody for that matter, not just th
81、e disabled. These portable book holders are light-weight and can be easily moved about. These holders relieve the strains on ones hands, necks and shoulders that might occur due to the handling of a book. The holders are provided with extended legs that help in placing the reading material at suitab
82、le distance.Thus with the help of these disability aids, the old and disabled people can make their lives much more convenient and comfortable that would otherwise have been a cumbersome and complex one.Disability AidsThemeDisability aids are important to people with disabilities (71) from some majo

87、 of the brain drain since 1978 across the country. There has been a reversal of the brain drain since 1978 across the country. Between 1978 and 2022, about 7,000 overseas Chinese returned to Shanghai after completing their studies abroad. They accounted for about 25% of all returnees nationwide. The
88、 year 2022 has witnessed a boom. The number of returnees came up to 15,000. By the end of 2022, a further 22,000 will have returned to this city.The reversal of the brain drain mainly arises from three facts. Firstly, our government values overseas Chinese scholars highly, encourages them to return
89、home to start their own careers and has worked out a series of preferential policies. In Shanghai, the famous international city, they can enjoy a modern lifestyle. Secondly, Chinas economy has been developing at a high speed, which provides them with a vast space of development. Many returnees have
90、 achieved outstanding success in scientific research or in high-level management. They are playing a more and more important role. Thirdly, the current global financial crisis leaves many overseas out of work or at the edge of being laid off. They feel more secure at home because the economy is more stable.I hope that more overseas Chinese can head home. There is a bright future ahead of them.
