（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
Walking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path. I changed my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasn’t covered by water or mud. As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked! Yet I did nothing for the attack. It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected. I was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five times. I backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me. Had I been hurt, I wouldn’t have found it amusing. And I was laughing. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!
Having stopped, laughing, I took a step forward. My attacker rushed me again. He charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain. For a second time, I took a step backwards while my attacker paused. I wasn’t sure what to do. After all, it’s just not every day that one is attacked by a butterfly. I stepped back to look the situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. That’s when I discovered why my attacker was charging at me only moments earlier. He had a mate and she was dying.
Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mate’s sake, even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life. His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mate’s safety seemed admirable. I couldn’t do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool. He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed.
Since then, I’ve always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge barriers facing me.
21. Why did the writer change his direction while walking down a path
A. To get close to a butterfly. B. To look the bad situation over.
C. To escape a sudden attack. D. To avoid getting his shoes dirty.
22. What did the man find funny
A. Making the attacker pause. B. Being attacked by a butterfly.
C. Stepping on a butterfly. D. Discovering the energetic butterfly.
23. From this experience the man learned ________.
A. what he should do when faced with trouble B. people should show sympathy to the weak
C. how he should deal with attacks D. people should protect butterflies
B
Post-1990 graduates are likely to become a generation without property ownership due to more emphasis on personal value, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences published in a report on Wednesday. Around 30 percent of the post-90s graduates surveyed live in a property of below 20 square meters one year after graduation. Half of the surveyed said they are unwilling to degrade their living conditions by incurring housing debts.
The report, Society Blue Paper: China Social Situation Analysis and Prediction, surveyed 4,110 students born after 1990 in 12 universities across the country. Of the interviewed, 2,730 of them are currently still students at school and 1,380 are graduates. The survey reveals that in a year after graduation, more than 70 percent of graduates rent houses or live in dormitories provided by their employers. About 20 percent live at home of their parents or relatives and less than 5 percent live in the houses of their own.
“The report shows most post-90s graduates have to obtain a house on their own,” said Tian Feng, deputy director of the research lab for teenagers and social problems attached to CASS. It is still a rigid (刚性的) demand for post-90s to have their own house. Only one third of respondents agree to lower their current living conditions to save money to purchase a house, and about 55 percent choose not to buy a house if the investment means a heavy debt burden. More than half of the graduates believe that property investment is the best way to maintain the value of money for the time being. However, if the graduates had a sum of money for a down payment on a home, most said they would rather use the money on entrepreneurship (创业) or other business endeavors which they say provide a sense of achievement.
Tian said that on the one hand, the post-1990 generation recognizes traditional Chinese values which regard property as a necessity to build a family, but on the other hand, they prefer a high-quality and free-style of life instead of living under the economic restrictions caused by heavy house loans.
24. What does the underlined word “incurring” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Bearing. B. Leaving. C. Clearing. D. Canceling.
25. According to the passage, at most how many graduates interviewed have their own houses
A. 55. B. 68. C. 136 . D. 205.
26. What can we infer from the last paragraph about the post-1990 generation
A. They treat property as a preference to build a house.
B. They prefer a high-quality and free-style life.
C. They have mixed feelings about property ownership.
D. They lack a sense of responsibility.
27. Which of the following is the best title of the passage
A. Property—a Necessity to Build a Family
B. Post-1990 Generation Less Likely to Own Property
C. Housing Debts—a Nightmare of Post-90s
D. Property Investment to Maintain the Value of Money
C
It’s common knowledge that the woman in Leonardo da Vinci’s most famous painting seems to look back at observers, following them with her eyes no matter where they stand in the room. But this common knowledge turns out wrong.
A new study finds that the woman in the painting is actually looking out at an angle that’s 15. 4 degrees off to the observer’s right—well outside of the range that people normally believe when they think someone is looking right at them. In other words, said the study author, Horstmann, “She’s not looking at you.” This is somewhat ironic (讽刺的), because the entire phenomenon of a person’s gaze (凝视) in a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer is called the “Mona Lisa effect”. That effect is absolutely real, Horstmann said. If a person is illustrated or photographed looking straight ahead, even people viewing the portrait from an angle will feel they are being looked at. As long as the angle of the person’s gaze is no more than about 5 degrees off to either side, the Mona Lisa effect occurs.
This is important for human interaction with on-screen characters. If you want someone off to the right side of a room to feel that a person on-screen is looking at him or her, you don’t cut the gaze of the character to that side—surprisingly, doing so would make an observer feel like the character isn’t looking at anyone in the room at all. Instead, you keep the gaze straight ahead.
Horstmann and his co-author were studying this effect for its application in the creation of artificial-intelligence avatars (虚拟头像) when Horstmann took a long look at the “Mona Lisa” and realized she wasn’t looking at him.
To make sure it wasn’t just him, the researchers asked 24 people to view images of the “Mona Lisa” on a computer screen. They set a ruler between the viewer and the screen and asked the participants to note which number on the ruler intersected (和…相交) Mona Lisa’s gaze. To calculate the angle of Mona Lisa’s gaze as she looked at the viewer, they moved the ruler farther from or closer to the screen during the study. Consistently, as the researchers found, participants judged that the woman in the “Mona Lisa” portrait was not looking straight at them, but slightly off to their right.
So why do people repeat the belief that her eyes seem to follow the viewer Horstmann isn’t sure. It’s possible, he said, that people have the desire to be looked at, so they think the woman is looking straight at them. Or maybe the people who first coined the term “Mona Lisa effect” just thought it was a cool name.
28. It is generally believed that the woman in the painting “Mona Lisa” _________.
A. attracts the viewers to look back B. seems mysterious because of her eyes
C. fixes her eyes on the back of the viewer D. looks at the viewers wherever they stand
29. What gaze range in a painting will cause the Mona Lisa effect
A. B. C. D.
30. The experiment involving 24 people was conducted to _________.
A. confirm Horstmann’s belief
B. create artificial-intelligence avatars
C. calculate the angle of Mona Lisa’s gaze
D. explain how the Mona Lisa effect can be applied
31. What can we learn from the passage
A. Horstmann thinks it’s cool to coin the term “Mona Lisa effect”.
B. The Mona Lisa effect contributes to the creation of artificial intelligence.
C. Feeling being gazed at by Mona Lisa may be caused by the desire for attention.
D. The position of the ruler in the experiment will influence the viewers’ judgement.
D
At five o’clock, people leave their office. The length of the workday, for many workers, is defined by time. They leave when the clock tells them they’re done.
These days, the time is everywhere: not just on clocks or watches, but on cell-phones and computers. That may be a bad thing, particularly at work. New research shows that clock-based work schedules block creativity.
Clock-timers organize their day by blocks of minutes and hours. For example: a meeting from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m., research from 10 a.m. to noon, etc. On the other hand, task-timers have a list of things they want to accomplish. They work down the list, each task starts when the previous task is completed. It is said that all of us employ a mix of both these types of planning.
What, then, are the effects of thinking about time in these different ways Does one make us more productive Better at the tasks at hand Happier In experiments conducted by Tamar and Anne, they had participants organize different activities—from project planning, holiday shopping, to yoga—by time or to-do list to measure how they performed under “clock time” vs. “task time”. They found clock-timers to be more efficient but less happy because they feel little control over their lives. Task-timers are happier and more creative, but less productive. They tend to enjoy the moment when something good is happening, and seize opportunities that come up.
The researchers argue that task-based organizing tends to be undervalued and under-supported in the business culture. Smart companies, they believe, will try to bake more task-based planning into their strategies. This might be a small change to the way we view work and the office, but the researchers argue that it challenges a widespread characteristic of the economy: work organized by clock time. While most people will still probably need, and be, to some extent, clock-timers, task-based timing should be used when performing a job that requires more creativity. It’ll make the tasks easier, and the task-doers will be happier.
32. What does the author think of time displayed everywhere？
A. It makes everybody time-conscious. B. It clearly indicates the fast pace of modern life.
C. It is a convenience for work and life. D. It may have a negative effect on creative work.
33. How do people usually go about their work according to the author
A. They accomplish their tasks one by one.
B. They combine clock-based and task-based planning.
C. They set a time limit for each specific task.
D. They give priority to the most urgent task on hand.
34. What did the researchers find in their experiments about clock-timers
A. They tend to be more productive. B. They have more control over their lives.
C They always get their work done in time. D. They seize opportunities as they come up.
35. What do the researchers say about today’s business culture
A. It does not support the strategies adopted by smart companies.
B. It places more emphasis on workers’ lives than on work efficiency.
C. It does not attach enough importance to task-based practice.
D. It aims to bring employees’ potential and creativity into full play.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
To control the nation’s growing problem with food wastage, the South Korean government has started a unique campaign— “Pay as You Trash”. 36 One is through an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) card—when users tap this card over a specially designed food waste bin, the lid will open. The waste is automatically weighed and recorded in the user’s account. The user needs to settle this bill every month.
The second billing method is through pre paid garbage bags. 37 For instance, in Seoul, a 10 liter garbage bag costs around one dollar. 38 Residents throw food waste directly into bins and pay for it by purchasing bar code stickers attached to the bin.
Nearly every residential area in the nation is equipped with one of these three payment systems. Even before the pay by weight system was introduced, South Koreans were still being charged for food waste. The cost was simply divided equally among the residents of each apartment block. The new system is not only fair, but is also designed to make consumers really feel the price of food waste. 39
Thanks to the initiative, some housewives in Seoul are now adopting creative methods to avoid food waste. 40
They make sure to squeeze all the liquid out of leftover food before throwing it away.
The food waste will go into the dustbin.
There’s also a bar code management system in place.
They began to realize that saving food is of importance.
These specially designed bags are priced based on volume.
The more food they throw out, the more they end up paying.
Three methods are in place to charge citizens for the food thrown away.
G. While preparing vegetables, they try to use as many the eatable parts as possible.

Capturing the Lines of Love
I’ve never been the kind of person to say, “it’s the thought that counts” when it comes to gifts. That was until a couple of weeks ago, when my kids gave me a present that blew me away.
For years now, I’ve been wanting to sell our home, the place where my husband and I 41 our kids. But to me, this house is much more than just a 42 .
