37、singly concerned with centering childrens needs above all else, mothers and fathers have become skillful at talking about their kids feelings while masking their own. But new research suggests that parents who hide their negative emotions are doing their children, and themselves harm.A study publish
38、ed this month says that when parents put on a fauxhappy(假开心) face for their kids, they do damage to their own sense of wellbeing and authenticity.“For the average parent the findings suggest when they attempt to hide their negative emotion expression and overexpress their positive emotions with thei
39、r children, it actually comes at a cost: doing so may lead parents to feel worse themselves,” researcher Dr Emily Impett, says.It makes sense that parents often fall back on amping up(扩大) the positivity for the sake of their childrenthere are a lot of things in the world we want to protect our kids
40、from. But children are often smarter than we expect and are quite in tune with what the people closest to themtheir parentsare feeling.There was a time about a year or so ago, for example, when I received some bad news over the phone; I was home with my fouryearold and so I did my best to put on a b
41、rave face. She knew immediately something was wrong though, and was confused.When I finally let a few tears out and explained that Mom heard something sad about a friend, she was, of course, just fine. My daughter patted my shoulder, gave me a hug, and went back to playing. She felt better that she
42、was able to help me, and the moment made a lot more sense to her emotionally than a smiling mom holding back sobs. I was glad that I could feel sad momentarily and not have to work hard to hide that.Relaying positive feelings to your children when you dont feel them is a move the researchers called
43、high costthat it may seem like the most beneficial to your child at the time but that parents should find other ways of communicating emotions that “allow them to feel true to themselves”But this is also about children seeing the world in a more honest way. While we will want to protect our children
44、 from things that arent ageappropriate or harmful, its better to raise a generation of kids who understand that moms and dads are people too.()58. What is the typical behavior of parents when they bring up their children?A. Allowing their children chances to do things themselves.B. Expressing their
45、dissatisfaction with their children.C. Hiding their true emotions from their children.D. Sharing their favorite food with their children.()59.

The author mentioned the example of her daughter to illustrate _A. children are not so clever as parents thinkB. children can often understand parents true feelingsC. its meaningful for parents to always look positiveD. its necessary to expose children to harmful things()6

We can conclude from the passage that _A. protecting children from ageinappropriate things is importantB. it makes sense for children to know their parents negative feelingsC. children will admire their parents more because of being protectedD. separation from negative feelings helps children see
48、 the world honestlyCThe defeat of Lee Sedol, the worlds strongest Go(围棋) player, by a Google artificial intelligence (AI) program, looks like another milestone towards a world where computers can do almost anything a human can. It is not. There are uncountable things that only a human can do, and th
49、at no computer seems close to. The problem is that the purely human things are not economically useful to anyone. The things that computers can be taught to do are by contrast economically fantastic. But even the most powerful programs are not human, just as a shovel(铲车). They have no feelings. What
50、 they have is power, but this power is growing at a rate that should frighten us all.It might be less frightening if computers were truly intelligent, but even the most powerful networks are less human than monstrous Martians(火星人). Their power will be used to make money for the firms that finance th
51、eir development, and then for others quick and clever enough to take advantage of the new world. It is far more likely that they will increase inequality and still further remove the middle classes as we move towards an hourglass(以金钱来衡量的) society in which everyone is either very rich or very poor an
52、d likely indebted.One of the ill effects of the spread of more intelligent computer networks is, at the same time, the spread of what might be called artificial_stupidity. If AI is employed largely to replace unskilled labour, it is most productive when labour is kept unskilled or redefined that way
53、. So much of the work in service industries is now simplified until it might be automated(自动化). And robots will never need pensions. AI is slowly reducing skilled work, like some forms of medical diagnosis(诊断), at the same time, as older doctors complain that the traditional human skills of diagnosi
54、s are falling out of medical training. The belief that everything worthwhile can be measured and then managed is far more damaging to humanity than the threat of artificial intelligence on its own.But no victory in complicated Go games can bring us closer to truly humanlike computers.()62. By mentio
55、ning the defeat of Lee Sedol, the author intends to tell us that _A. computers can completely replace humans in everythingB. humans are of no practical economic values to the societyC. the power of computers is growing at a frightening rateD. AI programs can not compare with humans economically()63.
56、 We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the power of computers will _A. improve the quality of human lifeB. promote equality at work placesC. make contributions to human developmentD. widen the gap between the rich and the poor()64. What does the underlined part “artificial stupidity” in Paragraph 3 mea
57、n?A. Unskilled workers become stupid. B. AI discourages skilled work.C. Computers dont need pensions. D. AI is ruining medical training.()65. What is the authors attitude towards the future of artificial intelligence?A. Optimistic. B. Supportive. C. Sceptical. D. Cautious.DThey dont quite know how t
58、o cope with all the dam trouble theyve got down in Hampden, Maine. And according to town manager Leslie Stanley, it doesnt look as if things will improve any in the immediate future. “Weve got a real annoying problem on our hands,” he says.The annoyance began in late May. About three miles outside o
59、f town a group of beavers(河狸) built a dam near the mouth of a culvert(涵洞) that carries a stream under Canaan Road. Some 50 feet of roadway and several hundred feet of land on each side of the culvert were flooded. Stanley sent a road crew out to level the dam. The beavers rebuilt it. The crew tore i
60、t apart again. In fact, they tore it apart for ten morningsand for ten straight nights the beavers rebuilt it.On the eleventh day, the foreman tossed(扔) the problem back to the town manager. He, in turn, tossed it on to the local game warden(狩猎监督官). The warden, absorbed in beaver knowledge, moved qu
61、ietly and carefully out one night and placed a petrolsoaked bag over the dam.(Any beaver expert will tell you the creatures just cant tolerate petrol smell)In the morning the bag was found artistically woven(编织) into the dam.The warden set out three steel traps that night. In the morning one was emp
62、ty. The other two had been stolen by the beavers and used to strengthen the dam. The warden, cursing the state law against hunting beavers with firearms, got his traps back and set them out again and again. And every night the beavers stole them.Town manager Stanley enlisted additional troops. He te
63、lephoned his police chief. Those beavers were breaking a state law against blocking up a natural watercourse. “Why arent you out there to uphold the law?” Stanley asked. “Youre the police chief. So remove them. Arrest them. Do something.”Three mornings later, the police chief proudly announced the e
64、nd of the dam. At 2:00 AM., he said, he and a licensed dynamiter(炸药使用者) had blown it to small pieces. Stanley said hed believe it when he saw it.They drove out to the culvert and found a new dam already halfbuilt. They also found the highway choked with mud and remains thrown up by the dynamite.Stan
65、ley said maybe they should call in the Army Corps of Engineers. But the police chiefs faith in explosives was unshaken. He launched an allout campaign, but the beavers always managed to have the holes plugged by the time the fire department appeared on the scene for its morning mopup.In time, the be
66、avers tired of this nonsense and moved their dam “inside” the culvertwhere it couldnt be blown up without destroying the road too.Stanley and his general staff held a council of war and agreed that fresh strategy was called for. Then they came up with an inspired idea. If we remove every branch of t
67、he dam by hand, well force the beavers to go in search of new building material to replace what weve taken. Then we can place box traps along their runways and seized them.The plan was completely approved. Moreover it worked. On July 30, town manager Stanley was able to announce that the beaver grou
68、p had been trapped and removed to a remote wilderness area. And there was great joy in Hampdenuntil the middle of October, that is, when a group of young beavers was spotted swimming in the same waters from which its elders had recently been taken away.But to make a long story short, the strategy th
69、at worked with the older beavers worked with the young ones too.()66. What was the annoying problem for the authorities in Hampden, Maine?A. They failed to destroy the dam repeatedly built by the beavers.B. They didnt know who to send to deal with the dam trouble.C. The beavers were building dams in
70、 every corner of the town.D. The political situation in the town was becoming much worse.()67. What did the local game warden do?A. He made steel traps to strengthen the dam.B. He set out to hunt the beavers with firearms.C. He learned a lot about the construction of the dam.D. He used petrolsoaked
71、bags to drive the beavers away.()68. Which is the correct order of the following events? The land on both sides of the culvert was flooded. The local leaders worked out a strategy. The game warden set out steel traps. The beavers rebuilt their dam inside the culvert. The police chief used explosives
72、 to destroy the dam.A. B. C. D. ()69. The underlined word “uphold” in Paragraph 6 probably means _A. revise B. resist C. violate D. defend()70. What can we learn about the beavers from the passage?A. The beavers seem to be stubborn about building dams.B. The beavers are allowed to be killed when cau
73、sing trouble.C. The beavers cant adapt themselves to living in wilderness.D. The beavers finally returned to the culvert with their young.第卷(非选择题共35分)第四部分:任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填1个单词。Deep reading, as opposed to superficial (shallow) reading we do on t
74、he Web, is an endangered practice, one we ought to take steps to preserve as we would a historic building or a significant work of art.Recent research has illustrated that deep reading, characterized as a unique experience different in kind from the mere understanding of words, is slow, immersive(沉浸
75、的), rich in sensory detail and emotional and moral complexity. Although deep reading does not, strictly speaking, require a conventional book, the limits of the printed page are uniquely helpful to the deep reading experience. A books lack of hyperlinks(超链接), for example, frees the reader from makin
76、g decisionsshould I click on this link or notallowing her to remain fully absorbed in the story.That immersion is supported by the way the brain handles language rich in detail, indirect reference and figures of speech: by creating a mental representation that draws on the same brain regions that wo
77、uld be active if the scene were unfolding in real life. The emotional situations and moral dilemmas that are the material of literature are also vigorous(有活力的) exercise for the brain, driving us inside the heads of fictional characters and even, studies suggest, increasing our reallife capacity(能力)
78、for recognition.None of this is likely to happen when were browsing through a website. Although we call the activity by the same name, the deep reading of books and the informationdriven reading we do on the Web are very different, both in the experience they produce and in the capacity they develop
79、. A growing body of evidence suggests that online reading may be less satisfying, even for the “digital natives” to whom it is so familiar. Researchers reported that 39% of children and teens read daily using electronic devices, but only 28% read printed materials every day. Those who only read onsc
80、reen were three times less likely to say they enjoy reading very much and tell which book they like best. The study also found that young people who read daily only onscreen were nearly twice less likely to be aboveaverage readers than those who read daily in print or both in print and onscreen.All
81、in all, the disappearance of deep reading would harm the intellectual and emotional development of generations growing up online, as well as the preservation of a critical part of our culture: the novels, poems and other kinds of literature that can be appreciated only by readers whose brains have b

91、。37.B 解析:A项意为“预见”;B项意为“揭露;显示”;C项意为“争辩”;D项意为“承诺”。这句话的大意是,直到看到妈妈的信,“我”才知道妈妈是一个吸毒的人。这里的reveal是指这封信“揭示了”这个事实,即B项正确。38.B 解析:track down意为“追踪;找到”,符合语境,句意:“我”的姐姐在Facebook上找到了(联系上了)“我”。knock down意为“撞倒;击倒”;roll down意为“滚下”;turn down意为“拒绝”。39.C 解析:A项意为“谈判;商议”;B项意为“抱怨”;C项意为“通信”;D项意为“搜查”。句意:“我们”在Facebook上遇到后,相互保持

99、er than we expect and are quite in tune with what the people closest to themtheir parentsare feeling.”,再结合六七两段中作者和女儿的故事可知,孩子通常是可以理解父母亲的感情的,所以选B。61.B 解析:文章大意题。文章开头就提出父母对孩子掩饰消极情绪是不好的的论点;接下来讲了掩饰消极情绪对孩子也不好,还会让父母感觉更糟;最后两段大意是,应该让孩子了解父母的真实情绪。由此可知,B项说法正确。C【文章大意】 文章以一位围棋高手被电脑智能程序击败的故事展开讨论。作者认为,电脑智能程序有很多缺点,如增

101、s we move towards an hourglass society in which everyone is either very rich or very poor and likely indebted.”可直接得到答案。64.B 解析:词义猜测题。根据最后一段话中的“AI is slowly reducing skilled work, like.”这句话可知,由于人工智能程序的使用,需要技巧的工作在逐渐减少。因此B项正确。65.C 解析:作者态度题。文章从第二段开始,主要讲的是AI的负面影响,如增加不公平、加大贫富悬殊、减少有技能工人的工作等。另外,最后一段也是更明显的提示
102、:But no victory in complicated Go games can bring us closer to truly humanlike computers。因此C项正确。D【文章大意】 文章讲述一个有趣的故事:在一个叫Hampden的地方,一群河狸在涵洞口筑起堤坝,导致河水泛滥。镇长派筑路队去铲平堤坝,但很快河狸又把堤坝建起来了。狩猎监督官又用汽油浸泡的袋子去熏河狸,结果河狸把这个袋子一并筑到堤坝里去了。狩猎监督官又用捕兽夹去捕,而结果连捕兽夹都被河狸偷走用来加固他们筑的堤坝了。后来军队用炸药也没用。最后,镇长决定手动移走堤坝的分支。最后这个方案奏效了。66.A 解析:细
103、节理解题。通读全文可知,本文主要讲述的是一群河狸一次又一次在涵洞口筑堤坝,而狩猎监督官却费尽周折也处理不了的事情。因此选A。67.D 解析:细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“The warden, absorbed in beaver knowledge, moved quietly and carefully out one night and placed a petrolsoaked bag over the dam.”可知,狩猎监督官是拿汽油袋子去熏河狸,因为河狸不喜欢汽油味。68.B 解析:细节理解题。通读全文内容可知,B项的顺序是正确的。69.D 解析:词义猜测题。本题选项中几个词的
104、大意是:A项意为“修正“;B项意为“抵抗”;C项意为“违反”; D项意为“保卫”。划线单词前面一句话的意思是:镇长打电话给警察局长,告诉他那些河狸违背州法律。所以警察局长的回复的意思应该是:那你们为什么不去保护法律呢?因此选D项,即划线单词意思是“保护”。70.A 解析:推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,这群河狸一次次地建堤坝,无论人们怎么破坏它们建的堤坝,他们都重新建造堤坝。因此A项与原文内容相符。任务型阅读71. disappear 72. deserves/needs/requires/wants 73.

124、ht, everyone. Thank you for coming in today. As you all know, were here to celebrate the career of Maurice Jones. Mr. Jones joined the company three decades ago. He worked in the mail room after he finished high school, and he got promoted to office manager after a few months because he was so well
125、organized. He stayed in that position for a year and a half, at which point he demanded that the company pay for him to get his degree while he continued to work. This had never happened here at Bradley & Cooper before, but Mr. Jones drives a hard bargain, as you all know so well! Mr. Jones took nig
126、ht classes so he could remain on the team fulltime, and his hard work and devotion to learning made him a perfect candidate for a management position. Mr. Jones continued to move up the ladder here, becoming the vice president of operations just five years ago. Mr. Jones will most definitely be miss
127、ed. We will all remember his warm smile and strong will to succeed. I think everyone could learn a thing or two from Mr. Jones, including me. Ive been with this company from the very beginningalmost 40 yearsand I can tell you that this is one special man right here. Congratulations for making it all the way to retirement! Lets give Mr. Jones the microphone now so he can say a few words.
