12、headmaster and two other teachers, has been put on the schools Face book page and shared more than 9,000 times with more than 7,000 likes.The letter reads, “Next week you will sit your SATs tests for maths, reading, spelling, grammar and punctuation. We know how hard you have worked, but there is so

The people who create these tests and score them do not know each of you in the way that we do and certainty not in the way your families do.”The letter goes on to say that the tes

But how far can you trust them?Barnaby Bicken had an unpleasant experience. “I took some friends to a restaurant in Manchester that had excellent reviews on a food website. However, the service was awful an
19、d we were ignored most of the time. Later, I wrote a review on the same site only to be told that the review site owner would not accept any bad reviews only the good ones.”So, how can you get a useful review? Web expert Hilary Saunders has a few top tips. “If there are only a few reviews of a place
20、, there is a good chance they have been planted by friends or enemies. If there are many reviews, start by dropping the most extreme comments. Also, watch out for similarities in style between reviews from people with different user names, particularly if those reviews were placed about the same tim
21、e. The best thing is to look for reviewers who show some relevant knowledge of the product they are reviewing.”Some companies seem to be contributing to the problem. A publishing house offered gift vouchers (购物礼券) to anyone who would give their textbook a five-star review. But not all online compani

These findings, published in the journal Behavioural Proc
26、esses, mark the first example of so-called rapid facial mimicry occurring between play partners of different species, and indicate the existence of a universal language of play. Though the purpose behind play remains unclear, scientists believe the behavior arises to help animals improve hunting and
27、 social skills, relieve stress or develop relationship with each other, study author Elisabetta Palagi says, an animal behaviorist at the University of Pisa in Italy.Learning more about the contexts in which different animals play aroundespecially across branches of the tree of lifecould tell resear
28、chers a lot about plays origins and evolution. But apart from a handful of studies featuring humans and their pets, scientists havent had many chances to analyze examples of interspecies play. In 2018, when someone sent Palagi a YouTube video featuring a dog and a horse playing together, she took th
29、e chance to research further. The two species, she noted early on, were especially good research objects of interspecies friendship, because they had both been shown to recognize facial expressions in other animals. Putting together a team of research students, Palagi began to collect and analyze hu
30、ndreds of other videos with dogs and horses partnering in play. Only 20 videos ended up meeting the teams requirements: showing animals freely playing on their own, without human interference, for at least30 seconds. Several common themes quickly arose. When playing, dogs and horses often mirrored e
31、ach others moves, jumping and pushing at each other. They also rolled on their backs and showed their throats and stomachsa strong sign that they were at ease and even communicating their friendly intentions. Despite millions of years of evolution between them, the two species had found common groun
32、d for the only purpose of fun, said Palagi.The two animals also frequently copied each others facial expressions, both using the relaxed, open mouthsbehayior that had never been noted between a pair of animals of different species. Horses and dogs may look and behave in extremely different ways, say
33、s Barbara Smuts, a behavioral ecologist at the University of Michigan who wasnt involved in the study. But fun is perhaps a language that doesnt need to be taught. Two very dissimilar animals, Smuts says, can still discuss how to play in a way thats comfortable for both.28What do scientists find abo

37、r folding.Researchers from Washington State University (WSU), US, have used origami to possibly solve the problem of storing and moving fuel to rocket engines, a key challenge in space travel, according to Newswise. Theyve developed a foldable plastic fuel “bladder (囊状物)” resistant to super cold tem
38、peratures, which could be used to store and pump fuel in spacecrafts of the future. Their findings have recently been published in the journal Cryogenics.“Folks have been trying to make bags for rocket fuel for a long time,” said Jake Leachman, one of the lead researchers. “We currently dont do larg
39、e, long-duration trips because we cant store fuel long enough in space.”Meanwhile, NASA is also looking to paper folding to help observe distant planets. The agency is currently developing Starshade, a foldable, sunflower-shaped piece of hardware that would help block starlight and enable telescopes
40、 to view distant objects more clearly in space.“A huge part of my job is looking at something on paper and asking, Can we fly this?” Manan Arya, a technologist in California, said. “Once I realized this is how you fold spacecraft structures, I became interested in origami. I realized I was good at i
41、t and enjoyed it. Now, I fold constantly. ”Using origami for space purposes isnt new, however. Solar arrays (太阳能阵列), experimental wings for space shuttle programs and an inflatable (可充气的) satellite were also inspired by origami in both past and present space projects.“With most origami, the magic co
42、mes from the folding,” Robert Salazar, who helped design the Starshade and now works on the Transformers project, said in a statement. “There are so many patterns to still be explored.”32. How could the “bladder” help in future missions?A. To protect spacecrafts from extreme weather.B. To be used to
43、 store and supply fuel in spacecrafts.C. To help rocket engines cut energy consumption.D. To be used to improve energy efficiency.33. What can we know about NASAs Starshade?A. It can be used to get telescopes closer to stars.B. It can enlarge the view of telescopes in space.C. It can absorb a stars
44、light before it enters telescopes.D. It can help telescopes get clearer pictures of objects in space.34. What is this text?A. A travel journal. B. A digest. C. A science report. D.

46、vironment of fast and frequent change.Every profession will require adaptability and flexibility. Say you are an accountant. Your IQ gets you through the examinations. Your EQ helps your connect with an interviewer, land a job, and develop relationships with clients and colleagues. _37_ All three qu
47、otients are somewhat complementary(互补的), since they all help you solve problems and therefore adapt. An ideal candidate possesses all three, but not everyone does. _38_ While there is no definite method of measuring adaptability like an IQ test, companies are changing their recruitment (招聘) processe
48、s to help identify people who may be high in it.Natalie Fratto suggests three ways AQ might show in potential candidates: if they can picture possible versions of the future by asking what if questions; if they can unlearn information to challenge conventional wisdom; and if they enjoy exploration o

Second, ask uncomfortable questions to develop courage and normalize fear. Third, be curious about things that fascinate you by having more conversations rather than Go
50、ogling the ready answer.Over the next three years, 120 million people may need to be reskilled because of automation, according to a 2019 IBM study. We may not all be comfortable with the pace of change-but we can prepare. _40_A. AQ is now increasingly being sought at the hiring level.B. One good th
51、ing about AQ is that experts say you can work to develop it.C. The ability to learn, change, grow, experiment will be the key.D. This is because an algorithm(算法)can do these tasks faster and more accurately than a human.E. But today, as technology redefines how we work, the skills we need to improve
52、 in the job market are developing too.F. Having IQ but no EQ would leave you struggling to embrace new ways of working using your existing skills.G. Then, when systems change or aspects of work are automated, you will need AQ to accommodate this innovation and adapt to new ways of performing your ro
