He gave up his job as an accountant to work full time on this land, creating a forest reha
20、bilitation (修复) project.“People thought I was mad, but Ive watched this whole paradise disappear, to the point where seeing a wild animal alive and free is a luxury. So I said to myself, I have to do something to save the species,” Omar explains.Across Ecuador, deforestation has been increasing. In
21、2008, scientists warned that Ecuador had the highest deforestation rate in South America.Omar Tellos project, Jardin Botanico Las Orquidias, focuses on planning, implementing and evaluating strategies, guidelines and actions to consolidate a culture of respect for the natural environment, contributi
22、ng to the protection of the environment through scientific research for the Amazonian flora and fauna (动植物).Over these 40 years, Omar has gleaned (四处搜集) rare seeds and cuttings from the Amazon basin and repopulated these species within his project. The wildlife has slowly been attracted into the are

Snakes, birds, insects, bees and even the endangered “glass frog”, which was thought to be on the brink of extinction, have been spotted in his forest.The rescue center of the Amazonian flora and fauna is now a benchmark for research on ecosystem restoration. Omar Tello has also become recognized
24、 as an expert in the field of long-term forest restoration. His work now is to work with educational institutions, community centers and local farmers to give other landowners the power to do the same as him.The wife of Omar states that “(although people) come from far away to see and learn about th

28、ands make light work.D. He who laughs last laughs best.CA competition making up Versailles literature was launched on Sina Weibo recently. So what is Versailles literature?Actually, the term has nothing to do with the French palace nor with literature. It came from The Rose of Versailles, a Japanese
29、 manga series about aristocratic（贵族化的）life at the palace of Versailles in France in the late 18th century, and was coined by a Chinese influencer earlier this year. Known as humblebragging, it is a boast（吹牛）disguised as a complaint. “I have too many houses. How can I decide which one to decorate?” a
30、nd “I thought I lost weight this morning. So disappointed when I realized it was because I took off the huge diamond ring my boyfriend gave me last night” are some examples of Versailles literature. The intention is to show off - usually things of materialistic values, yet one ought to pretend thats
31、 not the point.As the 19th century English author Jane Austen famously wrote, “Nothing is more deceitful（欺诈的）than the appearance of humility（谦逊）.” The psychology behind humblebragging is to be recognized for ones successes and be liked by others at the same time, according to scholars. In her articl
32、e titled Why do people hate humblebragging? published in Psychology Today, psychologist Dr. Susan Krauss Whitbourne at the University of Massachusetts Amherst noted that humblebragging is a “strategy in pursuit of respect” because it draws attention to ones accomplishments in a circuitous way. Howev
33、er, studies on social media users show that humblebragging as a self-promotion strategy does not work. In the essay Humblebragging: A distinct and ineffective self-presentation strategy, the University of North Carolina researcher Ovul Sezer and Harvard University scholars Francesca Gino and Michael
34、 Norton concluded from their research that humblebraggers are perceived more negatively than straight braggers due to the formers insincerity. “The critical factor differentiating the two groups of people is sincerity. People dont like braggers, but they at least see them as more sincere than humble
35、braggers,” said Francesca Gino.So, how can we annoy humblebraggers back? “Just pretend you dont get whatever it is they try to show off,” a netizen advised. “And respond with genuine sympathy for their complaints.”28. Which of the following statements is typical of “Versailles literature”?A. You kno
36、w who my father is? My father is Li Gang.B. Got five offers to date. Im at a loss which to choose.C. Its a headache how to make my son tidy up his room regularly.D. Im fed up with living in the countryside with no shopping malls around.29. What is the psychology behind humblebragging?A. To win other
37、s sympathy. B. To earn others admiration.C. To show his/her sincerity. D. To mask his/her complaint.30. What does the underlined world “circuitous” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Roundabout. B. Straightforward. C. Ambiguous. D. Double-edged.31. What cant be inferred from the passage?A. Braggers are
38、 relatively more sincere than humblebraggers.B. Humblebragging is an artificial appearance of being humble.C. To respond with real sympathy will discourage humblebraggers.D. If you want to be perceived positively, avoid using Versailles literature.DPeople with genetic syndromes(综合症) sometimes havete
39、lltale(泄露秘密的) facial features, but using them to make a quick and cheap diagnosis can be tricky given there are hundreds of possible conditions they may have. A new neural network that analyzes photographs of faces can help doctors narrow down the possibilities.Yaron Gurovich at biotechnology firm F
40、DNA in Boston and his team built a neural network to look at the gestalt - or overall impression - of faces and return a list of the 10 genetic syndromes a person is most likely to have.They trained the neural network, called DeepGestalt, on 17,000 images correctly labelled to match more than 200 ge
41、neticsyndromes. The team then asked the AI to identify potential genetic disorders from a further 502 photos of people with such conditions. It included the correct answer 91 per cent of the time.Gurovich and his team also tested the neural networks ability to distinguish between the different genet
42、icmutations(变异) that can lead to the same syndrome. They used photographs of people with Noonan syndrome, which can result from mutations in any one of five genes. DeepGestalt correctly identified the genetic source of the physical appearance 64 per cent of the time. Its clearly not perfect, but its
43、 still much better than humans are at trying to do this.As the system makes its assessments, the facial regions that were most helpful in the determination are highlighted and made available for doctors to view. This helps them to understand the relationships between genetic make-up and physical app
44、earance.The fact that the diagnosis is based on a simple photograph raises questions about privacy. If faces can reveal details about genetics, then employers and insurance providers could, in principle, secretly use such techniques to discriminate against people who have a high probability of havin
45、g certain disorders. However, Gurovich says the tool will only be available for use by clinicians(临床医生). Clinically, this technology can help narrow down the search space of diagnosis and then confirm through checking genetic markers. Besides, it could perhaps add means of finding other people with
46、the disease and, in turn, help find new treatments or cures.32. Whats the best title of this text?A. Tricky facial featuresB. Faces let AI spot genetic disorders C. Facial features give you away to doctors D. DeepGestalt: a magic cure for genetic syndromes33. What can we know about DeepGestalt?A. It
47、 can be trained to correctly label the images of people.B. It can correctly identify geneticmutations 91% of the time.C. It was built to look at faces and identify genetic disorders.D. It is much better than humans at trying to identify physical appearance.34. Why are certain facial regions highligh
48、ted in the assessment process?A. To help confirm the diagnosis.B. To make the system more understandable.C. To help the system quickly recognize people.D. To help identify a condition and make a diagnosis.35. Whats the authors attitude towards the technology?A. Positive. B. Neutral. C. Indifferent.
49、D. Critical.第二节(共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Youre faced with a lot of decisions in everyday work. There are multiple tasks calling for your focus, and you are burning daylight or even burn out trying to decide what comes first. 36If youre going to think smarter ab
50、out how you prioritize (排序) tasks, you have to invest a little time away from your to-do list. Heres the thing: what you work on confirms your values. You may think its no big thing to work overtime for a little while, but something will be sacrificed with this decision. If youre a parent, you might
51、 spend less time with your kids. Similarly, if you choose not to work much or effectively, youre deciding that your values lie outside your career. 37Write all the tasks down and create four boxes containing all of things you care about. This could be: helps the community, helps one-to-one relations
52、hips, makes money, and things you find personally fulfilling. Then place them in the boxes and see how many of the boxes each one takes up. Anything that fills just one box has to be reconsidered. Anything that fills nothing should not be considered at all. 38From here, the rest of the prioritizatio
53、n gets a little easier. You now have a better idea where the efforts are really paying off. You also know when you are wasting your own time.In order to figure out a plan for yourself, the first thing you should be doing is gathering all of your tasks, large and small. 39 Other people are counting o
54、n you or your future self will depend on them somehow. These are actually easier to prioritize. Then break down large tasks into smaller pieces. That helps put things in order. Part of the reason we do the small things first is that being productive feels good. Acknowledging accomplishments makes yo
55、u more likely to keep going and pushes you through the more complicated tasks.40 Notice when your energy levels are high and when they are weak. Be aware when youre more productive for social activities and when youre better off. The more you study yourself, the easier planning becomes.Now that you
56、have your priorities in order, go ahead and you will boost your productivity.A.You can also prioritize based on energy levels.B.The good news is that some tasks can keep you motivated.C.So how can you figure out whats most important to work on first?D.This activity allows you to see where you really
57、 want to invest your energy.E.If you want to make a new list, you need to turn to your colleagues for help.F.There are some tasks that are pretty straightforward and you need to do the thing.G.Where you invest your time is not just about what you value but also what you dont value.36._ 37_ 38._ 39._
