28、out Alberta Clippers coming out of Canada. I knew all about themhow an entire air mass was streaming along at over sixty miles an hour.That morning, the Weather Briefer informed me that an Alberta Clipper was going over Chicago about,the time I got to the airport. Chicago was some 400 miles from my
29、destinationnot a factor, or so I thought. That was the first hint I missed.The controller called and asked if I wanted to adjust my flight plan. I did the check and everything was in the green. So I told him no. Twenty minutes later the controller called again asking whether I wanted to adjust my fl
30、ight plan. I checked everything. All was fine. I ignored that hint. I was fooled by the smooth air and limited experience with a rapidly moving air mass that was not changing violently. The Alberta Clipper was clipping along.The first blast of turbulence （气流）struck my plane. I got slammed into the r
31、oof, and then slammed sideways hitting the window with such force up my nose that I started bleeding.After a 2-hour flight of 100 miles, I realized fuel was now an issue. So was landing. I called Flight Following. We figured out the airport I could land.The engine stopped. So did my heart. There is
32、no quiet as quietly stunning as this one at such an altitude. I had run out of fuel in the left tank, and only a little in my right tank. The engine quit fbr a second time. I declared an emergency. I was told that I might get another few minutes of fuel if I gently banked the airplane. Luckily, it w
33、orked. Then, the engine quit for the last time. I was a glider now. I made a long lazy spiral descent. Down I went. I stopped at the very end of the runway.I made so many mistakes, missed so many clues, and showed my ignorance so much that I beat myself up over and over again in my mind. I learned t

37、ade a landing.A. dcbeaB. dceba37. The passage describes .A. a rewarding trainingC. a painful explorationThere is certainly evidence that actors experience a blending of their real self with their assumed characters. For instance, Benedict Cumberbatch said, My mum says Im much more impatient with her
38、 when Im filming Sherlock.,Mark Seton, a researcher at the University of Sydney, has even coined the term post-dramatic stress disorder, to describe the lasting effects experienced by actors who lose themselves in a role. “Actors may often prolong habits of the characters they have embodied, he writ
39、es.A recent finding doesnt involve acting, and it indicates that merely spending some time thinking about another person seemed to rub off on the volunteers5 sense of self led by Meghan Meyer at Princeton University. Across several studies, these researchers asked volunteers to first rate their own
40、personalities, memories or physical attributes, and then to perform the same task from the perspective of another person. For instance, they might score the emotionality of various personal memories, and then rate how a friend or relative would have experienced those same events.After taking the per
41、spective of another, the volunteers scored themselves once again: the consistent finding was that their self-knowledge was now changedtheir self-scores had shifted to become more similar to those theyd given for someone else. For instance, if they had initially said the trait term confident was only
42、 moderately related to themselves and then rated the term as being strongly related to a friends personality, when they came to rescore themselves, they now tended to see themselves as more confident. Remarkably, this morphing of the self with another was still apparent even if a 24-hour gap was lef
43、t between taking someone elses perspective and re-rating oneself.By simply thinking about another person, we may adapt our self to take the shape of that person/9 said Meyer and her colleagues. That our sense of self should have this quality might be a little discouraging, especially for anyone who
44、has struggled to establish a firm sense of identity. Yet there is an optimistic message here, too. The challenge of improving ourselves一or at least seeing ourselves in a more positive lightmight be a little easier than we thought. By roleplaying or acting out the kind of person we would like to beco
45、me, or merely by thinking about and spending time with people who embody the kind of attributes we would like to see in ourselves, we can find that our sense of self changes in desirable ways.“As each of us chooses who to befriend, who to model, and who to ignore/9 write Meyer and her colleagues, “w
46、e must make these decisions aware of how they shape not only the fabric of our social networks, but even our sense of who we are.38. The first two paragraphs mainly .A. state that acting requires skillsB. explain the stress that an actor facesC. show that a role leaves a mark on the actorD. stress t
47、he importance of devoting oneself to a role39. What does the underlined phrase rub off on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Influence.B. Strengthen.C. Confuse.D. Determine.40. According to the study, taking the perspective of another person .A. brings changes to ones self-knowledgeB. motivates one to
48、 better understand himselfC. helps people deal with their identity problemsD. produces temporary effects on ones character41. What is the significance of the study?A. It offers instructions on making friends.B. It proposes a means to improve ourselves.C. It gives advice on adjusting ones emotions.D.
49、 It presents a way to deal with stress disorder.DIn college, I was taught an elegant theory of chemical combination based on excess electrons going into holes in the orbital shell of a neighbouring atom. But what about diatomic compounds like oxygen gas? Dont ask; students arent ready to know. In ph
50、ysics, in biology, in any other science classes, students frequently get that answer too.Ifs time to trust students to handle doubt and diversity in science. Actually, students are starting to act. They have shamed their seniors into including more diverse contributors as faculty members and role mo
51、dels. Young scholars rudely ask their superiors why they fail to address the extinction crises clarified by their research. The inherited authoritarian political structures of science education are becoming lame一but still remain largely unchanged from the old school days.A narrow, rigid education do
52、es not prepare anyone fbr the complexities of scientific research, applications and policy. If we discourage students from inquiring into the real nature of scientific truths, or exploring how society shapes the questions that researchers ask, how can we prepare them to maintain public trust in scie
53、nce in our post-truth” world? Diversity and doubt produce creativity; we must make room for them, and stop guiding future scientists into narrow specialties that value technique over thought.In science, even foundational building blocks can be questioned. The unifying patterns of the periodic table
54、are now questioned under closer examination. Some scientists now wonder whether the concept of biological species contributes more confusion than insight, and whether it should therefore be abandoned. However, such a decision would affect conservation policy, in which identification of endangered sp
55、ecies is crucial一so it is not just an issue for basic science.Science students generally remain unaware that concepts such as elements and species are contested or are even contestable. In school, college and beyond, curricula highlight the technical and hide the reflective. Public arguments among s
56、cientists often presume that every problem has just one solution.Nonetheless, uncertain advice on complex issues should be a warning that, from a future perspective, todays total scientific consensus on some policy issue might have been the result of stubbornness, a conflict of interest or worse. Ju
57、st as a healthy democracy accommodates dissent and dissonance, the collective consciousness of science would do well to embrace doubt and diversity. This could start with teaching science as a great, flawed, ongoing human achievement, rather than as a collection of cut-and-dried eternal （永久的）truths.
58、I recall a legendaiy chemistry professor who was not skilful at getting classroom demonstrations to work一but discussing what went wrong helped his students to thrive. A mathematician friend let pupils discuss every statement in the textbook until all were satisfied. They did v河 well in exams, and ta
59、ught themselves when he was absent. Treating people at all levels as committed thinkers, whose asking teaches us all, is the key to tackling the challenges to science in the post-trust age.42. The problem of current science training is that .A. students cannot become specialistsB. it goes against es
60、tablished science educationC. students lose trust in their teachers and professorsD. it fails to provide students with what they need in future43. The periodic table is mentioned to prove that .A. even the widely accepted can be challengedB. students are generally ignorant of scienceC. most previous
61、 researches are out of date *D. science has been developing with time44. It can be learnt from the passage that .A. students may be more innovative if they are allowed to doubtB. science students do not contest elements or speciesC. students should not trust established scienceD. diversity prevents
62、progress in science45. Which of the following statements best represents the writer 5s opinion?A. Our curricula highlight the technical and hide the reflective.B. Science should be a collection of cut-and-dried eternal truths.C. Teachers should treat people at all levels as committed thinkers.D. The

You can have alcohol in your life without it being a problem, or your alcohol use may become problematic. 47Theres one important thing to remember about survey research
66、ust because two things happen together, its not necessarily true that one causes the other. 48 For all we know, it could be that people who are already more depressed choose to spend more time on social media.49 If you think that we shouldnt paint social media with one broad brush, youre on the righ
67、t track. On the one hand, participants often described social media as a valuable way to cope with stress. On the other hand, cyberbullying via social media was also a common experience for participants. Some also said that constantly checking their own social media profile was stressful.Ifs certain
68、ly possible that experiences like cyberbullying, comparing yourself to idealized images, and constantly monitoring your profile, are bad fbr your mood. Its also true for many that social media offer community support and positive messages. Given the inconclusive research, its safe to say that at lea
