8、y 2012, two hunters in eastern Russia discovered a limp bundle of fur lying in the snow.

28、and we have no plans. Before we fall into our routine and watch a movie, I try to talk my husband into playing a card game. Unconvinced, he continues tapping away on his phone. But just before disappearing into the social media rabbit hole, he has an idea. He looks over me and suggests, “Why dont we
29、 try calling one of our friends?”I look at him with raised brows, as if his suggestion is somewhat ridiculous and perhaps even socially unacceptable. You cant just call someone out of the blue nowright? But then I think again and realize that at one point in time, in the not so distant past, this wa
30、s the norm. I spent my early teenage years connecting with friends through a phone that was connected to a wall. It wasnt “smart”, but it allowed me to keep in touch with the latest gossip and news. We would chat for hours, sometimes while I hid under my blanket in order to avoid the chance of being
31、 caught by my parents. I could even memorize the phone numbers of loved ones then. While I did own an address bookand there was always the White Pages, where you could look people up by their namesI had the contact details of special friends, first loves and family members committed to memory. I gue
32、ss these days, they would be on my “Favorites” list in my smartphone. Today, many of my “favorite” people are followed from a distance through social media, and even they very rarelyif everwould get an actual call from me. The birth announcement by my oldest friend is received through catching a wel
33、l-defined bump into a photo that I scroll past. The news of a divorce from a couple whom I had considered my second parents when I was in middle school arrives after a photo of a woman led me on a quest for more gossip. Bits of such information, a collection of wonderful, exciting, shocking and also
34、 boring news, may have been a part of my digital feed for years. The idea of actually picking up the phone to reconnect with a long-lost friend is an intimidating oneeven seeing the name of an old friend pop up in an incoming call can feel a little afraid. I ask my husband, “Who would we call?” Afte
35、r tossing around a few names, we agree on some potential candidatespeople whose lives have taken them in different directions, but with whom we still share deep friendships. 35. How does the author feel about her husbands suggestion at first? A. Excited. B. Motivated. C. Nervous. D. Surprised.36. Wi

In the following days, the couple may _.A. share more of their private information with othersB. contact more long-lost friends through s
37、ocial mediaC. have more personal communications with their friends D. add more friends names to the contact lists in their phones CMathew White, an environmental psychologist, is on a mission to give Mother Nature the respect he thinks she deserves when it comes to human health. For decades, scienti
38、sts and health-care professionals have recognized that exposure to green spaces, such as public parks or forests, is linked with lower risks of all sorts of illnesses common in the world. Experimental work has demonstrated various physiological responses that occur when people spend time in natural
39、environments: blood pressure drops, heart rate decreases, immune function improves, and the nervous system directs the body to rest and digest.As humans increasingly populate urbanized areas, they are spending less and less time in natural environments. But before doctors can start advising their pa
40、tients to head to the nearest park, there is an important outstanding question, says White: How much time in nature do you need to generate these apparent benefits? Most of the research that has linked health outcomes with exposure to the natural world didnt use frequency or duration of park visits,
41、 but rather the amount of green space within a certain distance of a persons home, White says. But “its not so much where you live; its whether you use it or not.”So he collected data to estimate what dose（剂量） of nature was needed to show benefits to a persons health. Whites group found the answer h
42、e was after: Spending at least two hours in nature per week was strongly correlated with self-reports of being in good health or having high wellbeing. “I was very surprised, to be honest,” says White, who had been expecting a much longer time. “We had no idea that such a clear threshold of time per
43、 week would emerge from the data.” He was further surprised to learn that it didnt seem to matter how many trips to a park people took, so long as they got in their two hours per week. It could be a long visit one day, a couple of hour-long trips, three visits of 40 minutes, or four half-hour excurs
44、ions. He and his colleagues speculate that, if natures apparent health benefits are a result of being able to de-stress, then whatever pattern of green space exposure fits ones schedule is probably the best way to achieve that goal. Health-care recommendations for people to spend time in nature are
45、probably years away, but the movement has begun. Several organizations around the world are working to promote awareness of natures contribution to health. Some researchers have used the term “a dose of nature” to evaluate the amount of exposure needed to gain benefits. “That was kind of the deliber
46、ate medicalization of the language around nature and health,” says White. 38. Whites research focused on_. A. required amount of green spaceB. benefits from the exposure to natureC. necessary time length of nature visits D. physical responses to outdoor activities 39. What does the underlined phrase
47、 “threshold of time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Maximum time. B. Minimum time. C. Adequate time. D. Average time. 40. From the last paragraph, we can infer that White_. A. is confident about his mission B. is willing to cooperate with othersC. has persuaded others to accept his ideaD. has adopt
48、ed the term for his research result 41. Whats the best title for the passage?A. Respect for Nature B. Nature as MedicineC. Present from NatureD. Mission in Nature DOnce I told someone I wanted to get a masters degree of fine arts in creative writing and they told me it was the second-to-worst post-g
49、raduation plan theyd ever heard from a student. Arts degrees especially fine arts degrees, which usually come in the form of music, studio art, creative writing and theater have been, over the years, labeled useless. Its true that for the most part, STEM degrees lead to higher paying jobs than liber
50、al and fine arts degrees, and its understandable why young people care about a higher starting salary and financial security. Student loan debt is playing a role in the physical and mental stress of young people.And while STEM majors usually have starting salaries that are $20,000 higher than those
51、of liberal arts majors, by the time people reach the age of 40, the salaries between those who majored in the liberal arts and those who majored in STEM are virtually the same. For example, women who major in STEM earned nearly 50% more than social science and history majors at ages 23-25, but only
52、10% more by ages 38-40, a New York Times analysis reported. So even in terms of salary, which doesnt solely determine whether or not a degree is useful, liberal arts degrees arent all that far behind STEM.It seems too that since people nowadays are going to have to work longer, its more important th
53、an ever that we actually like and care about what were doing. Pursuing something enjoyable, or else a passion, is continuously found to be a key factor in maintaining healthy relationships, mental health, physical health and energy. In other words, not useless.Art is also a method of communication.
54、It allows people from different backgrounds, from different walks of life to communicate with each other. In a world where borders and division seem to be all over the place, we need art more than ever. We need liberal arts majors. And more than anything, we need to be able to pursue what we love wi
55、th confidence, and we need to not get caught up in the “usefulness” of what we love. And just because someones primary job isnt in their field of study a writer who teaches high school for example doesnt make the degree useless. It just means that their way of finding a stable income is different. T
56、he same goes for artists who have to work multiple jobs to support themselves. They might have to find other means of supporting themselves and their artistry. It might be copy editing or it might be tutoring. So I am going to graduate school, and I am going to graduate school for writing. I might b

But one thing I am sure of is this I would rather be a writer working two jobs to pay my bills than be no writer at all. 42. A New York Times analysis report is mentioned in Paragraph 3 to _. A. analyse the potential
58、value of different majorsB. put forward the opinion on majors by example C. prove the argument against arts degrees wrong D. demonstrate the link between majors and incomes 43. Why does the author think learning arts is useful?A. Following ones dream of arts keeps one in good condition. B. Doing wha
59、t one loves builds up ones self-confidence in arts. C. Mastering arts improves ones understanding of different jobs. D. Developing a love for arts helps one maintain passion for work. 44. The author thinks that doing multiple jobs is _. A. unavoidable B. common C. traditional D. acceptable45. What c
60、an we infer from the passage? A. Students learning arts are more concerned about the value of life. B. People tend to place income in the first place when choosing majors. C.

This phenomenon is known as the Dunning-Kruger effect, which refers to the finding that
62、people who are relatively unskilled or unknowledgeable in a particular subject sometimes have the tendency to overestimate their knowledge and abilities. In a set of studies, researchers Justin Kruger and David Dunning asked participants to complete tests of their skills in a particular domain. Then
63、, participants were asked to guess how well they had done on the test. 46 This effect was most pronounced among participants with the lowest scores on the test. David Dunning explains that “the knowledge and intelligence that are required to be good at a task are often the same qualities needed to r
64、ecognize that one is not good at that task.” In other words, if someone knows very little about a particular topic, they may not even know enough about the topic to realize that their knowledge is limited. Importantly, someone may be highly skilled in one area, but be influenced by the Dunning-Kruge
65、r effect in another domain. 47 If people who know very little about a topic think theyre experts, what do experts think of themselves? Interestingly, Dunning and Kruger found that although experts typically guessed their performance was above average, they didnt realize quite how well they had done.
66、 They often make a different mistake: 48 What can people do to overcome the effect? Dunning and Kruger once had some of the participants take a logic test and then complete a short training session on logical reasoning. After the training, the participants were asked to assess how theyd done on the
67、previous test. 49 Afterward, the participants who scored in the bottom 25 percent lowered their estimate of how well they thought they had done on the initial test. In other words, one way to overcome the effect may be to learn more about a topic. The Dunning-Kruger effect suggests that we may not a
68、lways know as much as we think we do. 50 However, by challenging ourselves to learn more and by reading about opposing views, we can work to overcome the effect. A. Researchers found that the training made a difference. B. They assume that everyone else is knowledgeable, too. C. This happens when pe
69、ople dont know much about a topic. D. All of them had a more accurate view of their performance.E. They found that participants tended to overestimate their abilities. F. This means that everyone can potentially be affected by the Dunning-Kruger effect.G. In some domains, we may not know enough abou

80、st station was set up at my suggestion in our community. One day on my way home, I noticed several deliverymen crowding at the entrance to our community. At the sight of the workers who were sweating over the work, I suddenly came up with an idea. I decided to do something for them. I went to the ma
81、nagement department of our community and suggested setting up a rest station for those deliverymen. The manager listened carefully and thought highly of my suggestion. The next day, a poster was put up on the bulletin board in our community to call on people to donate. Many neighbors expressed their
82、 support and contributed some money. Some food and snacks were prepared soon. On Friday afternoon, I returned home after school as usual. To my delight, a rest station had been set up. Several deliverymen and one cleaner were having a rest at the station. Some were drinking water, while others were having fruits. Seeing the bright smiles on their faces, I felt a sense of achievement. What a meaningful experience! A small act of kindness can make a big difference.
