(A)
Directions:
After
reading
the
passage
below,
fill
in
the
blanks
to
make
the
passage
coherent
and
grammatically
correct.
For
the
blanks
with
a
given
word,
fill
in
each
blank
with
the
proper
form
of
the
given
word;
for
the
other
blanks,
use
one
word
that
best
fits
each
blank.
It’s
far
from
ideal
to
travel
during
a
pandemic.
Doctors
aren’t
going
to
give
you
the
green
light
to
do
it,
and
___1___
is
the
U.S.
State
Department
or
the
U.S.
Centers
for
Disease
Control
and
Prevention.
But
if
you’ve
really
got
to
go
somewhere
now
——
to
check
in
on
distant
family
or
to
attend
an
important
event,
there
are
ways
to
decrease
your
risks
___2___
taking
a
trip.
So
whether
you’re
setting
off
by
plane
or
car,
here’s
what
you
should
focus
on,
and
a
few
things
you
don’t
need
to
worry
about
as
much.
If
your
trip
is
essential
and
if
you’re
committed
to
social
distancing
and
mask-wearing,
it’s
possible
to
reduce
(but
not
eliminate)
COVID-19
risks.
One
of
the
easiest
ways
to
keep
your
distance
from
fellow,
potentially
___3___(infect)
humans
is
to
avoid
public
transportation.
___4___
(drive)
directly
to
your
destination,
with
minimal
stops.
If
you
must
fly,
do
it
safely.
Flying,
as
with
any
activity
that
brings
you
close
to
other
people,
does
carry
more
risk
than
driving
in
a
car.
While
everyone
aboard
a
plane
should
wear
a
mask,
your
energies
are
better
spent
___5___
(stay)
six
feet
apart
from
others
when
queueing
in
airport
lines
than
stressing
out
because
you
are
stuck
in
the
middle
seat.
“Choose
a
window
seat
as
far
from
the
restroom
as
possible,”
says
Dr.
Farley
Cleghorn,
the
global
health
practice
head
at
Palladium,
an
international
impact
consultancy
firm.
“Keep
the
overhead
vent
open
and
toward
your
face
——
continuous
airflow
creates
a
small,
invisible
‘wall’
that
___6___
block
out
(at
least
slightly)
the
exhaled
air
from
other
passengers,”
he
says.
Clean
your
hands
after
you’ve
settled
into
your
seat,
and
again
before
and
after
you
touch
your
face,
such
as
when
you
remove
your
mask
to
eat.
___7___
airlines’
promise
to
enhance
cleaning
these
days,
recent
investigations
suggest
that
cleaners
are
still
rushed
and
undersupplied.
So
you’d
better
treat
every
surface
you
touch
___8___
it
were
radioactive,
and
wipe
it
with
a
disinfecting
wipe
before
plopping
down.
(B)
Directions:
After
reading
the
passage
below,
fill
in
the
blanks
to
make
the
passage
coherent
and
grammatically
correct.
For
the
blanks
with
a
given
word,
fill
in
each
blank
with
the
proper
form
of
the
given
word;
for
the
other
blanks,
use
one
word
that
best
fits
each
blank.
Bigger
isn’t
always
better.
People
who
are
doubtful
about
this
argument
just
need
to
look
at
smartphones
and
personal
computers,
which
have
served
as
the
technological
driving
force
___9___
the
social
development
of
the
past
century.
It
is
the
continual
shrinkage
of
components
that
have
caused
the
explosion
of
computing
power
and
enabled
these
gadgets
to
be
accessible
to
people
across
the
world.
Inspired
by
this,
researchers
and
scientists
have
been
working
on
areas
____10____
making
things
small
may
mean
big
results.
And
this
year,
the
Nobel
Prize
has
broken
the
tradition
of
celebrating
big
by
presenting
the
biggest
prizes
to
discoveries
on
the
smallest
scales.
The
Nobel
Prize
in
Physiology
or
Medicine
was
awarded
to
a
cellular-level
experiment.
The
committee
gave
the
award
to
Yoshinori
Ohsumi
of
the
Tokyo
Institute
of
Technology,
for
his
research
on
“autophagy”,
___11___
“self-eating”
process
seen
in
cells.
What’s
more,
in
recognition
of
their
working
on
the
strange
properties
of
matter
in
extreme
states
and
____12____
(take)
their
research
all
the
way
down
to
an
atomic
scale,
the
Nobel
Prize
for
physics
was
awarded
to
three
British-born
scientists
who
currently
work
in
the
U.S.
Another
exceptional
new
field
is
____13____
of
nano-technology.
The
Nobel
Prize
in
Chemistry
was
awarded
to
a
scientist
who
managed
to
build
the
world’s
tiniest
machines
out
of
molecules.
Small___14___
the
subjects
are,
the
benefits
of
the
scientists’
research
are
set
to
be
huge.
More
importantly,
their
invention
may
even
eventually
be
turned
into
products
that
benefit
mankind.
The
ground-breaking
discoveries
in
physics,
“have
started
a
firestorm
of
research,
and
it
will
only
be
less
than
a
generation
___15___
their
research
leads
to
advances
as
unimaginable
to
us
now
as
lasers
and
computer
chips
were
a
hundred
years
ago,

H.
Greene,

of

Putting

an

might

if

and

"I
was
____17____
by
the
beauty
of
hanfu
in
costume
dramas
at
the
very
beginning.
They
looked
fairy-like,
and
I
really
liked
it,"
she
said.
"Fascinated
by
this
special
garment,
many
young
Chinese
like
me
become
more
interested
in
traditional
Chinese
culture,
customs
and
music."
In
2018,
the
number
of
hanfu
fans
reached
2.04
million,
up
72.9
percent
year
on
year,
according
to
a
report
on
China's
hanfu
industry
released
by
iiMedia
Research,
a
Chinese
consulting

A
few
years
earlier,
whenever
Chen
put
on
hanfu
and
walked
on
the
street,
passers-by
gave
her
weird
looks.
Now
things
are

Hanfu

and
more

____18____
in
the
daily
life
of
China.
If
you

the

and

in

such
as
Hangzhou
or
Kunming,
you
may
___19___
upon
an
individual
dressed
in
the
sweeping
ropes,
crossed
collars
and
wide
sleeves
of
hanfu.
Dressed
in
this
way,
they
aim
to
keep
the
apparel
and
the
rich
culture
behind
it
___20___.
Liu
Dan
43,
put
on
his
first
hanfu
suit
and
stepped
out
onto
the
street
in
2006
when
he
returned
from
overseas
to
Kunming,
the
capital
city
of
Southwest
China's
Yunnan
province.
He
said
the
hanfu____21____
started
in
the
early
2000s
on
online
forums
and
websites,
but
now
the
fashion
has
jumped
out
of
the
screen
and
onto
the
streets.
In
2007,
Liu,
with
an
educational
background
in
software
engineering,

the
Yunnan
Hanfu
Association.
The
number
of
hanfu
___23___
in
the
association
has
grown
from
fewer
than
10
to
more
than
10,000.
Each
weekend,
they
meet
up
for
themed
activities.
Amid
the
COVID-19
epidemic,
Liu
has
moved
these
cultural
activities
online.
Many

Alibaba
and
livestreaming
platform
Huya
both

hanfu

and

Experts
believe
the
resurgence
of
hanfu,
like
traditional

and

is
part
of
a

deservedly
Management
books
have
a
____26____
poor
reputation.
Too
often
they
are
written
by
people
who
confuse
insight
with
technical
terms,
the
types
who
love
to
call
a
spade
a
"manual
horticultural
utensil".
At
the
other
end
of
the
___27___
are
thick
books
containing
a
wealth
of
conventional
wisdom
and
clichés(陈词滥调).
So
it
was
a
joy
to
read
"It
Doesn't
Have
to
be
Crazy
at
Work",
by
Jason
Fried
and
David
Heinemeier
Hansson,
who
run
a
software
company
in
Chicago
called
Basecamp.
The
authors
argue
that
it
is
perfectly
possible
to
run
a
business
with
consistently
growing
profits
(as
they
do)
without
requiring
employees
to
work
madly
long
hours.
Sleep-___28___
managers
are
likely
to
be
counter-productively
impatient.
Basecamp
employees
have
a
40-hour
week,
except
in
the
summer
when
the
company
runs
a
four-day,
32-hour
week.
They
also
get
three
weeks'
holiday
every
year
and
a
monthly
massage
at
a
spa.
Meetings
are
avoided,
especially
those
____29____
lots
of
people.
The
firm
encourages
JOMO,
the
"joy
of
missing
out",
so
employees
can
concentrate
on
their
own
work
projects.
Another
way
to
reduce
stress
is
to
avoid
turning
deadlines
into
"dreadlines"—unrealistic
targets
for
project
____30____
accompanied
by
ever-changing
requirements.
"Goals
are
____31____,"
the
authors
write.
In
their
telling,
made-up
numbers
function
as
a
source
of
unnecessary
stress
until
they
are
either
achieved
or
abandoned.
Nor
should
workers
___32___
that
their
colleagues
deal
with
a
problem
straight
away.
In
almost
every
situation,
the
expectation
of
an
immediate
response
is
unrealistic.
Allowing
workers
more
time
means
they
can
come
up
with
a
more
____33____
and
helpful
decision.
The
overall
aim
of
the
firm
should
be
stated
in
___34___
terms.
Too
many
businesses
talk
about
"changing
the
world"
and
becoming
a
"disrupter".
Such
aims
are
far
too
grand
and
put
everyone
under
too
much
pressure.
A
relaxed
working
philosophy
in
the
office
might
work
better
in
the
long
run
than
the
hard-charging
____35____
that,
at
the
moment,
is
all
too
common.

courses
provide
kids
with
more
focused
___40___
and
course
options
than
they
can
get
in
a
typical
school.
Not
everyone
gives
cyber
schools
a
passing
grade,
however.
Some
educators
argue
that
online
learning
makes
it
hard
for
students
to
make
friends.
Many
parents
also
feel
that
cyber
schools
put
___41___
time
demands
on
them
because
they
have
to
oversee
their
kids’
daily
work.
Technology
can
benefit
education,
but
it
shouldn’t
___42___
education.
Students
who
go
to
virtual
schools
will
miss
many
of
the
benefits
of
being
in
a
real
school.
If
kids
attend
school
online,
they
will
miss
out
on
important
social
___43___.
Payton
Mcdonough,
13,
a
seventh
grader
from
Glencoe,
Ill.,
agrees.
“I
don’t
know
how
I
could
sit
at
a
computer
all
day
without
___44___
interacting
with
my
peers
and
teachers,”
he
says.
In
addition,
virtual
schools
don’t
have
enough
structure.
Students
who
take
online
courses
can
set
their
own
schedules,
which
will
cause
problems
for
students
who
have
trouble
staying
___45___.
Furthermore,
online
schooling
puts
stress
on
parents
because
they
have
to
___46___
what
their
kids
do
at
home.
Many
parents
have
full–time
jobs.
How
are
they
going
to
run
their
children’s
education,
___47___
in
their
jobs,
and
take
care
of
their
other
responsibilities
at
home?
Virtual
schools
will
make
it
harder
for
students
to
learn
and
will
put
too
much
pressure
on
parents.
Virtual
learning
does
not
need
to
replace
classroom
learning
___48___
but
it
can
help
students
work
at
their
own
pace.
If
students
struggle
with
subjects,
they
can
take
those
courses
online
and
spend
more
time
on
them.
Virtual
schools
can
also
offer
students
much
more
___49___
schedules.
Students
often
handle
extracurricular
activities,
sports,
and
schoolwork,
and
cyber
schools
could
help
them
manage
everything.
Finally,
attending
virtual
school
can
prepare
students
for
college
and
for
work
after
___50___.

Section
B
Directions:
Read
the
following
three
passages.
Each
passage
is
followed
by
several
questions
or
unfinished
statements.
For
each
of
them
there
are
four
choices
marked
A,
B,
C
and
D.
Choose
the
one
that
fits
best
according
to
the
information
given
in
the
passage
you
have
just
read.
(A)
The
January
fashion
show,
called
Future
Fashion,
exemplified
how
far
green
design
has
come.
Organized
by
the
New
York-based
nonprofit
Earth
Pledge,
the
show
inspired
many
top
designers
to
work
with
sustainable
fabrics
for
the
first
time.
Several
have
since
made
pledges
to
include
organic
fabrics
in
their
lines.
The
designers
who
undertake
green
fashion
still
face
many
challenges.
Scott
Hahn,
a
cofounder
with
Gregory
of
Rogan
and
Loomstate,
which
uses
all-organic
cotton,
says
high-quality
sustainable
materials
can
still
be
tough
to
find.
“Most
designers
with
existing
labels
are
finding
there
aren’t
comparable
materials
that
can
just
replace
what
you’re
doing
and
what
your
customers
are
used
to,”
he
says.
For
example,
organic
cotton
and
non-organic
cotton
are
virtually
indistinguishable
once
woven
into
a
dress.
But
some
popular
synthetics,
like
stretch
nylon,
still
have
few
eco-friendly
equivalents.
Those
who
do
make
the
switch
are
finding
they
have
more
support.
Last
year
the
influential
trade
show
Designers
&
Agents
stopped
charging
its
participation
fee
for
young
green
entrepreneurs
who
attend
its
two
springtime
shows
in
Los
Angeles
and
New
York
and
gave
special
recognition
to
designers
whose
collections
are
at
least
25%
sustainable.
It
now
counts
more
than
50
green
designers,
up
from
fewer
than
a
dozen
two
years
ago.
This
week
Wal-Mart
is
set
to
announce
a
major
initiative
aimed
at
helping
cotton
farmers
go
organic:
it
will
buy
transitional
cotton
at
higher
prices,
thus
helping
to
expand
the
supply
of
a
key
sustainable
material.
“Main-stream
is
about
to
occur,”
says
Hahn.
Some
analysts
are
less
sure.
Among
consumers,
only
18%
are
even
aware
that
eco-fashion
exists,
up
from
6%
four
years
ago.
Natalie
Hormilla,
a
fashion
writer,
is
an
example
of
the
unconverted
consumer.
When
asked
if
she
owned
any
sustainable
clothes,
she
replied,
“Not
that
I’m
aware
of.”
Like
most
consumers,
she
finds
little
time
to
shop,
and
when
she
does,
she’s
on
the
hunt
for
“cute
stuff
that
isn’t
too
expensive.”
By
her
own
admission,
green
just
isn’t
yet
on
her
mind.
But
thanks
to
the
combined
efforts
of
designers,
retailers
and
suppliers—one
day
it
will
be.
51.
What
is
said
about
Future
Fashion?
A.
It
inspired
leading
designers
to
start
going
green.
B.
It
showed
that
designers
using
organic
fabrics
would
go
far.
C.
It
served
as
an
example
of
how
fashion
shows
should
be
organized.
D.
It
convinced
the
public
that
fashionable
clothes
should
be
made
durable.
52.
According
to
Scott
Hahn,
one
big
challenge
to
designers
who
will
go
organic
is
that
________.
A.
much
more
time
is
needed
to
finish
a
dress
using
sustainable
materials
B.
they
have
to
create
new
brands
for
clothes
made
of
organic
materials
C.
customers
have
difficulty
telling
organic
from
non-organic
materials
D.
quality
organic
replacements
for
synthetics
are
not
readily
available
53.
We
learn
from
Paragraph
3
that
designers
who
undertake
green
fashion
________.
A.
can
attend
various
trade
shows
for
free
B.
are
readily
recognized
by
the
fashion
world
C.
can
buy
organic
cotton
at
favorable
prices
D.
are
gaining
more
and
more
support
54.
What
is
Natalie
Hormilla’s
attitude
toward
eco-fashion?
A.
She
doesn’t
seem
to
care
about
it.
B.
She
doesn’t
think
it
is
sustainable.
C.
She
is
doubtful
of
its
practical
value.
D.
She
is
opposed
to
the
idea
very
much.
(B)
What
limits
you
from
hiking
more
often?
Many
complain
that
they
don’t
have
a
suitable
partner
to
go
with.
If
not
having
a
suitable
hiking
partner
is
keeping
you
out
of
the
woods,
why
not
take
a
look
at
the
great
hiking
clubs
across
Canada?

(C)
By
now
you’ve
probably
heard
about
the
“you’re
not
special”
speech,
when
English
teacher
David
McCullough
told
graduating
seniors
at
Wellesley
High
School:
“Do
not
get
the
idea
you’re
anything
special,
because
you’re
not.”
Mothers
and
fathers
present
at
the
ceremony
—
and
a
whole
lot
of
other
parents
across
the
Internet
—
took
issue
with
McCullough’s
ego-puncturing
words.
But
lost
in
the
uproar
was
something
we
really
should
be
taking
to
heart:
our
young
people
actually
have
no
idea
whether
they’re
particularly
talented
or
accomplished
or
not.
In
our
eagerness
to
elevate
their
self-esteem,
we
forgot
to
teach
them
how
to
realistically
assess
their
own
abilities,
a
crucial
requirement
for
getting
better
at
anything
from
math
to
music
to
sports.
In
fact,
it’s
not
just
privileged
high-school
students:
we
all
tend
to
view
ourselves
as
above
average.
Such
inflated
self-judgments
have
been
found
in
study
after
study,
and
it’s
often
exactly
when
we’re
least
competent
at
a
given
task
that
we
rate
our
performance
most
generously.
In
a
2006
study
published
in
the
journal
Medical
Education,
for
example,
medical
students
who
scored
the
lowest
on
an
essay
test
were
the
most
charitable
in
their
self-evaluations,
while
high-scoring
students
judged
themselves
much
more
strictly.
Poor
students,
the
authors
note,
“lack
insight”
into
their
own
inadequacy.
Why
should
this
be?
Another
study,
led
by
Cornell
University
psychologist
David
Dunning,
offers
an
enlightening
explanation.
People
who
are
incompetent,
he
writes
with
coauthor
Justin
Kruger,
suffer
from
a
“dual
burden”:
they’re
not
good
at
what
they
do,
and
their
very
incapability
prevents
them
from
recognizing
how
bad
they
are.
In
Dunning
and
Kruger’s
study,
subjects
scoring
at
the
bottom
of
the
heap
on
tests
of
logic,
grammar
and
humor
“extremely
overestimated”
their
talents.
What
these
individuals
lacked
(in
addition
to
clear
logic,
proper
grammar
and
a
sense
of
humor)
was
“metacognitive
skill”:
the
capacity
to
monitor
how
well
they’re
performing.
In
the
absence
of
that
capacity,
the
subjects
arrived
at
an
overly
hopeful
view
of
their
own
abilities.
There’s
a
paradox
here,
the
authors
note:
“The
skills
that
lead
to
competence
in
a
particular
domain
are
often
the
very
same
skills
necessary
to
evaluate
competence
in
that
domain.”
In
other
words,
to
get
better
at
judging
how
well
we’re
doing
at
an
activity,
we
have
to
get
better
at
the
activity
itself.
There
are
a
couple
of
ways
out
of
this
double
bind.
First,
we
can
learn
to
make
honest
comparisons
with
others.
Train
yourself
to
recognize
excellence,
even
when
you
yourself
don’t
possess
it,
and
compare
what
you
can
do
against
what
truly
excellent
individuals
are
able
to
accomplish.
Second,
seek
out
feedback
that
is
frequent,
accurate
and
specific.
Find
a
critic
who
will
tell
you
not
only
how
poorly
you’re
doing,
but
just
what
it
is
that
you’re
doing
wrong.
As
Dunning
and
Kruger
note,
success
indicates
to
us
that
everything
went
right,
but
failure
is
more
ambiguous:
any
number
of
things
could
have
gone
wrong.
Use
this
external
feedback
to
figure
out
exactly
where
and
when
you
screwed
up.
If
we
adopt
these
strategies
—
and
most
importantly,
teach
them
to
our
children
—
they
won’t
need
parents,
or
a
commencement
(毕业典礼)
speaker,
to
tell
them
that
they’re
special.
They’ll
already
know
that
they
are,
or
have
a
plan
to
get
that
way.

Honorary
degrees
are
often
conferred
on
non-academic
leaders
in
the
arts,
business,
and
politics.
Harvard’s
list
in
recent
years
has
included
Kofi
fi
Annan,
Bill
Gates,
Meryl
Streep,
and
David
Souter.
But
Oprah’s
particular
brand
of
celebrity
is
not
a
good
fit
for
the
values
of
a
university
whose
motto,
Veritas,
means
truth.
Oprah’s
passionate
advocacy
extends,
unfortunately,
to
a
hearty
embrace
of
fake
science.
Most
notoriously,
Oprah’s
validation
of
Jenny
McCarthy’s
claim
that
vaccines
cause
autism
has
no
doubt
contributed
to
much
harm
through
the
foolish
avoidance
of
vaccines.
Famous
people
are
entitled
to
a
few
failings,
like
the
rest
of
us.
And
the
choice
of
commencement
speakers
often
reflects
a
balance
of
institutional
priorities
and
aspirations.
Judging
from
our
conversations
with
many
students,
Oprah
was
a
widely
popular
choice.
But
this
vote
of
confidence
in
Oprah
sends
a
troubling
message
at
precisely
the
time
when
American
universities
need
to
do
more
to
advance
the
cause
of
reason.
As
former
Dean
of
Harvard
College,
Harry
Lewis,
noted
in
a
blog
post
about
his
objections.
“It
seems
very
odd
for
Harvard
to
honor
such
a
high
profile
popularizer
of
the
irrational…
at
a
time
when
political
and
religious
nonsense
so
jeopardize
the
rule
of
reason
in
this
allegedly
enlightened
democracy
and
around
the
world.”
As
America’s
oldest
and
most
visible
university,
Harvard
has
a
special
opportunity
to
convey
its
respect
for
science
not
only
through
its
research
and
teaching
programs
but
also
in
its
public
affirmation
of
evidence-based
inquiry.
Unfortunately,
many
American
universities
seem
awfully
busy
protecting
their
brand
name
and
not
nearly
busy
enough
protecting
the
pursuit
of
knowledge.
A
recent
article
in
The
Harvard
Crimson
noted
the
shocking
growth
of
Harvard’s
public
relations
arm
in
the
last
five
years
and
it
questioned
whether
a
focus
on
risk
management
and
avoiding
controversy
was
really
the
best
outward-looking
face
of
this
great
institution.
As
American
research
universities
begin
to
resemble
profit
centers
and
entertainment
complexes,
it’s
easy
to
lose
sight
of
their
primary
mission:
to
produce
and
spread
knowledge.
This
mission
depends
on
traditions
of
rational
discourse
and
vigorous
defense
of
the
scientific
method.
Oprah
Winfrey’s
honorary
doctorate
was
a
step
in
the
wrong
direction.
63.
What

young
mother.
D.
She
achieved
her
fame

fake
science.
64.
Why
does
the
author
think
it
inappropriate
for

the
study
of
law.

was
known
as
a
supporter
of
fake
science.
C.
She
was
an

65.
What
is
the

inadequate
respect

fall
short
of
expectations
in
teaching
and
research.
C.
They
all
attach
too
much
importance
to
public
relations.
D.
They
are
tolerant
of
political
and
religious
nonsense.
66.
What
does
the
author
think
a
prestigious
university
like
Harvard
should
focus
on?
A.
Cultivation
of
student
creativity.
B.
Defense
of
the
scientific
method.
C.
Liberation
of
the
human

Section
C
Directions:
Read
the
following
passage.
Fill
in
each
blank
with
a
proper
sentence
given
in
the
box.
Each
sentence
can
be
used
only
once.
Note
that
there

sentences

Intelligence
was
believed
to
be
a
fixed
entity,
some
faculty
of
the
mind
that
we
all
possess
and
which
determines
in
some
way
the
extent
of
our
achievements.
Today,
we
are
beginning
to
think
differently.
In
the
last
few
years,
research
has
thrown
doubt
on
the
view
that
innate
intelligence
can
ever
be
measured
and
on
the
very
nature
of
intelligence
itself.
___67___Children
with
poor
home
backgrounds
not
only
do
less
well
in
their
school
work
and
intelligence
tests
but
their
performance
tends
to
deteriorate
gradually
compared
with
that
of
their
more
fortunate
classmates.
There
are
evidences
that
support
the
view
that
we
have
to
distinguish
between
genetic
intelligence
and
observed
intelligence.
Any
deficiency
in
the
appropriate
genes
will
restrict
development
no
matter
how
stimulating
the
environment
is.
We
cannot
observe
and
measure
innate
intelligence,
whereas
we
can
observe
and
measure
the
effects
of
the
interaction
of
whatever
is
inherited
with
whatever
stimulation
has
been
received
from
the
environment.
Researchers
have
been
investigating
what
happens
in
this
interaction.
___68___Firstly,
the
greater
part
of
the
development
of
observed
intelligence
occurs
in
the
earliest
years
of
life.
It
is
estimated
that
50
percent
of
measurable
intelligence
at
age
17
is
already
predictable
by
the
age
of
four.
Secondly,
the
most
important
factors
in
the
environment
are
language
and
psychological
aspects
of
the
parent-child
relationship.
These
research
findings
have
led
to
a
revision
in
our
understanding
of
the
nature
of
intelligence.
Instead
of
it
being
some
largely
inherited
fixed
power
of
the
mind,
we
now
see
it
as
a
set
of
developed
skills
with
which
a
person
copes
with
any
environment.
___69___
The
modern
ideas
concerning
the
nature
of
intelligence
are
bound
to
have
some
effect
on
our
school
system.
In
one
respect
a
change
is
already
occurring.
With
the
move
toward
comprehensive
education
and
the
development
of
unstreamed
classes,
fewer
children
will
be
given
the
label
“low
IQ”.
___70___
A.
These
skills
have
to
be
learned
and,
indeed,
one
of
them
is
learning
how
to
learn.
B.
Two
major
findings
have
emerged
from
these
researches.
C.
Intelligence
tests
could
be
used
for
streaming
children
according
to
ability
at
an
early
age.
D.
There
is
considerable
evidence
now
which
shows
the
great
influence
of
environment
both
on
achievement
and
intelligence.
E.
Intelligence
is
most
widely
studied
in
humans,
but
has
also
been
observed
in
non-human
animals
and
in
plants.
F.
The
idea
that
we
can
teach
children
to
be
intelligent
in
the
same
way
that
we
can
teach
them
reading
or
arithmetic
is
accepted
by
more
and
more
people.

But
if
you’ve
really
got
to
go
somewhere
now
——
to

on
distant

or
to
attend
an
important

there
are
ways
to
decrease
your
risks
___2___
taking
a
trip.
So
whether
you’re
setting
off
by
plane
or
car,
here’s
what
you
should
focus
on,
and
a
few
things
you
don’t
need
to
worry
about
as
much.
If
your
trip
is
essential
and
if
you’re
committed
to
social
distancing
and
mask-wearing,
it’s
possible
to
reduce
(but
not
eliminate)
COVID-19
risks.
One
of
the
easiest
ways
to
keep
your
distance
from
fellow,
potentially
___3___(infect)
humans
is
to
avoid
public
transportation.
___4___
(drive)
directly
to
your
destination,
with
minimal
stops.
If
you
must
fly,
do
it
safely.
Flying,
as
with
any
activity
that
brings
you
close
to
other
people,
does
carry
more
risk
than
driving
in
a
car.
While
everyone
aboard
a
plane
should
wear
a
mask,
your
energies
are
better
spent
___5___
(stay)
six
feet
apart
from
others
when
queueing
in
airport
lines
than
stressing
out
because
you
are
stuck
in
the
middle
seat.
“Choose
a
window
seat
as

restroom
as
possible,”
says
Dr.
Farley
Cleghorn,
the
global

at
Palladium,
an
international

“Keep
the
overhead
vent
open

a
small,
invisible

that
___6___
block
out
(at

slightly)
the

from
other

he
says.
Clean
your
hands
after
you’ve
settled
into
your

and
again
before
and
after
you
touch
your

such
as
when
you
remove
your

【解析】
这是一篇说明文。在疾病大流行期间旅行绝非理想之举，但如果你现在真的必须去某个地方，比如看望远方的家人或参加一个重要活动，文章提出了一些方法可以降低旅行时被感染的风险。
【1题详解】
考查副词。句意：医生不会同意你这样做，美国国务院和美国疾病控制和预防中心也不会同意。此处表示“……也不”可用副词neither或nor，表示前面否定的情况也同样属于后者。故填neither/nor。
【2题详解】
考查状语从句。句意：但如果你现在真的必须去某个地方，比如看望远方的家人或参加一个重要活动，这里有一些方法可以降低你旅行时的风险。此处引导时间状语从句，表示“当……时”应用when引导。故填when。
【3题详解】
考查形容词。句意：与潜在感染者保持距离的最简单方法之一就是避免乘坐公共交通工具。修饰后文名词humans，表示“受感染的”应用形容词infected。故填infected。
【4题详解】
考查祈使句。句意：直接开车到你的目的地，少停几次车。此处为肯定祈使句，句首动词用原形，单词首字母要大写。故填Drive。
【5题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：虽然在飞机上每个人都应该戴口罩，但在机场排队时，最好把精力花在与别人保持六英尺的距离上，不要因为坐在中间的座位而紧张。结合句意表示“花费……做某事”可知短语为spend
time
（in）doing
sth.。故填staying。
【6题详解】
考查情态动词。句意：他说：“保持头顶上的通风口朝向你的脸——持续的气流会形成一堵小小的、看不见的“墙”，可以阻挡（至少轻微地）其他乘客呼出的空气。”后文block为动词原形，可推知应填情态动词，且表示“可以，能够”应用can。故填can。
【7题详解】
考查介词。句意：尽管航空公司承诺加强清洁工作，但最近的调查显示，清洁工仍然很匆忙，供应不足。此处表示“尽管”应用介词despite，句首单词首字母要大写。故填Despite。
【8题详解】
考查连词以及虚拟语气。句意：所以你最好像对待放射性物质一样对待你接触的每一个表面，并用消毒抹布擦拭，然后再将其擦拭干净。此处引导虚拟语气，从句表示与现在事实相反，谓语动词用一般过去时，表示“好像”应用as
if引导方式状语从句。故填as
if。

the
social
development
of
the
past
century.
It
is
the
continual
shrinkage

that
have
caused
the
explosion
of
computing
power
and
enabled
these

Inspired
by
this,
researchers
and
scientists
have
been
working
on
areas
____10____
making
things
small
may
mean
big
results.
And
this
year,
the
Nobel
Prize
has
broken
the
tradition
of
celebrating
big
by
presenting
the
biggest
prizes
to
discoveries
on
the
smallest
scales.
The
Nobel
Prize
in
Physiology
or
Medicine
was
awarded
to
a
cellular-level
experiment.
The
committee
gave
the
award
to
Yoshinori
Ohsumi

of
Technology,
for
his
research
on

What’s
more,
in
recognition
of
their

strange
properties
of
matter
in

their

scale,
the
Nobel
Prize
for
physics
was
awarded
to
three
British-born
scientists
who
currently
work
in
the
U.S.
Another
exceptional
new
field
is

nano-technology.
The
Nobel
Prize
in
Chemistry
was
awarded
to
a
scientist
who
managed
to
build
the
world’s
tiniest
machines
out
of
molecules.
Small___14___
the
subjects
are,
the
benefits
of
the
scientists’
research
are
set
to
be
huge.
More
importantly,
their
invention
may
even
eventually
be
turned
into
products
that
benefit
mankind.
The
ground-breaking
discoveries
in
physics,
“have
started
a

of
research,
and
it
will
only
be

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了更大的并不一定是好的，正是因为这一点，科学家们才开始探索一些虽然小但更好的领域，小事情也能创造大不同。
【9题详解】
考查介词。句意：对这一论点持怀疑态度的人只需看看智能手机和个人电脑，它们已成为上个世纪社会发展背后的技术推动力。由句意可知，手机和个人电脑是上世纪社会发展背后的推动力，此处表达“……背后”，需要填入介词“behind(在……后)”，故填behind。
【10题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：受此启发，研究人员和科学家们一直致力于将事情做得更小可能意味着更大的结果的领域。分析句子可知这是一个定语从句，先行词为areas，表示地点，从句成分完整，应使用关系副词where引导从句，作从句的地点状语，故填where。
【11题详解】
考查冠词。句意：该委员会将该奖项授予了东京工业大学的大隅吉典(Yoshinori
Ohsumi)，以表彰他在细胞“自噬”，一种“自我吞噬”过程方面的研究。分析句子可知此处表示泛指，self为辅音音素开头，所以使用不定冠词a修饰，表示“一种”，故填ａ。
【12题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：更重要的是，为了表彰他们对极端状态下物质的奇特性质所做的研究，并将他们的研究一直推进到原子尺度，诺贝尔物理学奖被授予了三位目前在美国工作的英国出生的科学家。and并列连接working和taking，作介词of的宾语，此处为动名词的复合结构。故填taking。
【13题详解】
考查代词。句意：另一个特殊的新领域是纳米技术。短语that
of
+名词，表示“那一类”，符合句意，故填that。
【14题详解】
考查状语从句。句意：尽管研究对象很小，但科学家们的研究成果却是巨大的。分析句子结构可知，句型为as/thoug引导的让步状语从句倒装句：形容词+as/though
+主语+谓语，表示“尽管??，还是……”。故填as/though。
【15题详解】
考查时间状语从句。句意：物理学中的突破性发现“掀起了一场研究热潮，他们的研究只需不到一代人的时间，就可以像100年前的激光和计算机芯片那样，取得我们现在无法想象的进步，”分析句子可知这是一个时间状语从句，结合句意可知“不久后……就……”It
+
will
be
+
时间段
+
before等表示“要过多久才......”使用before引导从句，故填before。

deservedly
Management
books
have
a
____26____
poor
reputation.
Too
often
they
are
written
by
people
who
confuse
insight
with
technical
terms,
the
types
who
love
to
call
a
spade
a
"manual
horticultural
utensil".
At
the
other
end
of
the
___27___
are
thick
books
containing
a
wealth
of
conventional
wisdom
and
clichés(陈词滥调).
So
it
was
a
joy
to
read
"It
Doesn't
Have
to
be
Crazy
at
Work",
by
Jason
Fried
and
David
Heinemeier
Hansson,
who
run
a
software
company
in
Chicago
called
Basecamp.
The
authors
argue
that
it
is
perfectly
possible
to
run
a
business
with
consistently
growing
profits
(as
they
do)
without
requiring
employees
to
work
madly
long
hours.
Sleep-___28___
managers
are
likely
to
be
counter-productively
impatient.
Basecamp
employees
have
a
40-hour
week,
except
in
the
summer
when
the
company
runs
a
four-day,
32-hour
week.
They
also
get
three
weeks'
holiday
every
year
and
a
monthly
massage
at
a
spa.
Meetings
are
avoided,
especially
those
____29____
lots
of
people.
The
firm
encourages
JOMO,
the
"joy
of
missing
out",
so
employees
can
concentrate
on
their
own
work
projects.
Another
way
to
reduce
stress
is
to
avoid
turning
deadlines
into
"dreadlines"—unrealistic
targets
for
project
____30____
accompanied
by
ever-changing
requirements.
"Goals
are
____31____,"
the
authors
write.
In
their
telling,
made-up
numbers
function
as
a
source
of
unnecessary
stress
until
they
are
either
achieved
or
abandoned.
Nor
should
workers
___32___
that
their
colleagues
deal
with
a
problem
straight
away.
In
almost
every
situation,
the
expectation
of
an
immediate
response
is
unrealistic.
Allowing
workers
more
time
means
they
can
come
up
with
a
more
____33____
and
helpful
decision.
The
overall
aim
of
the
firm
should
be
stated
in
___34___
terms.
Too
many
businesses
talk
about
"changing
the
world"
and
becoming
a
"disrupter".
Such
aims
are
far
too
grand
and
put
everyone
under
too
much
pressure.
A
relaxed
working
philosophy
in
the
office
might
work
better
in
the
long
run
than
the
hard-charging

that,
at

本文是说明文。Basecamp是美国最佳小企业之一，该集团是私人企业，它的一些做法从长远来看说明，办公室里放松的氛围可能比目前过于常见的强硬方式更有效。
【26题详解】
考查副词。句意：管理学书籍活该口碑差。根据下文“
Too
often
they
are
written
by
people
who
confuse
insight
with
technical
terms,
the
types
who
love
to
call
a
spade
a
"manual
horticultural
utensil"”可知，副词修饰形容词。副词deservely修饰poor做状语。故选ABC。
【27题详解】
考查名词。句意：与之形成对比的是那些包含大量“打破固有模式”和陈词滥调。冠词后加名词做主语，名词scale“范围，规模”符合句意。故选D。
【28题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：睡眠不足的管理者很可能会产生相反的不耐烦。形容词修饰名词。
根据“The
authors
argue
that
it
is
perfectly
possible
to
run
a
business
with
consistently
growing
profits
(as
they
do)
without
requiring
employees
to
work
madly
long
hours.”可知，与之对应的是睡眠不足的管理者。deprived是过去分词转化的形容词，表示“被剥夺的”。故选AC。
【29题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：可以避免会议，特别是那些涉及很多人的会议。根据“lots
of
people.
”可知，可以避免会议，特别是那些涉及很多人的会议。现在分词做定语修饰those，表示主动，involving“涉及”。故选BD。
【30题详解】
考查名词。句意：另一种减少压力的方法是避免将截止日期变成“恐惧线”——即与不断变化的需求相伴的项目完成的不切实际的目标。根据“unrealistic
targets
for
project”可知。伴的项目完成。名词做宾语。completions“完成”，故选CD。
【31题详解】
考查形容词。句意：“目标是虚假的，”作者写道。be动词后用形容词。fake“虚假的”符合句意。故选AD。
【32题详解】
考查动词。句意：员工不应要求同事立即处理一个问题。根据“
their
colleagues
deal
with
a
problem
straight
away.”可知，员工不应要求同事立即处理一个问题。情态动词should后用动词原形。demand“要求”。故选C。
【33题详解】
考查形容词。句意：给工人更多的时间意味着他们可以做出更明智和更有用的决定。根据“
helpful
decision.”可知，给工人更多的时间意味着他们可以做出更明智和更有用的决定。形容词修饰名词decision做定语。informed“有见识的”，故选A。
【34题详解】
考查形容词。句意：公司的总体目标应该用谦虚的语言表述。根据上文“给工人更多的时间意味着他们可以做出更明智和更有用的决定”可知，公司的总体目标应该用谦虚的语言表述。形容词修饰名词terms。modest“谦虚的”，故选AB。
【35题详解】
考查名词。句意：从长远来看，办公室里放松的氛围可能比目前过于常见的强硬方式更有效。形容词后用名词。approach
“方法”符合句意，故选BC。

Read
the
following
three
passages.
Each
passage
is
followed
by
several
questions
or
unfinished
statements.
For
each
of
them
there
are
four
choices
marked
A,
B,
C
and
D.
Choose
the
one
that
fits
best
according
to
the
information
given
in
the
passage
you
have
just
read.
(A)
The
January
fashion
show,
called
Future
Fashion,
exemplified
how
far
green
design
has
come.
Organized
by
the
New
York-based
nonprofit
Earth
Pledge,
the
show
inspired
many
top
designers
to
work
with
sustainable
fabrics
for
the
first
time.
Several
have
since
made
pledges
to
include
organic
fabrics
in
their
lines.
The
designers
who
undertake
green
fashion
still
face
many
challenges.
Scott
Hahn,
a
cofounder
with
Gregory
of
Rogan
and
Loomstate,
which
uses
all-organic
cotton,
says
high-quality
sustainable
materials
can
still
be
tough
to
find.
“Most
designers
with
existing
labels
are
finding
there
aren’t
comparable
materials
that
can
just
replace
what
you’re
doing
and
what
your
customers
are
used
to,”
he
says.
For
example,
organic
cotton
and
non-organic
cotton
are
virtually
indistinguishable
once
woven
into
a
dress.
But
some
popular
synthetics,
like
stretch
nylon,
still
have
few
eco-friendly
equivalents.
Those
who
do
make
the
switch
are
finding
they
have
more
support.
Last
year
the
influential
trade
show
Designers
&
Agents
stopped
charging
its
participation
fee
for
young
green
entrepreneurs
who
attend
its
two
springtime
shows
in
Los
Angeles
and
New
York
and
gave
special
recognition
to
designers
whose
collections
are
at
least
25%
sustainable.
It
now
counts
more
than
50
green
designers,
up
from
fewer
than
a
dozen
two
years
ago.
This
week
Wal-Mart
is
set
to
announce
a
major
initiative
aimed
at
helping
cotton
farmers
go
organic:
it
will
buy
transitional
cotton
at
higher
prices,
thus
helping
to
expand
the
supply
of
a
key
sustainable
material.
“Main-stream
is
about
to
occur,”
says
Hahn.
Some
analysts
are
less
sure.
Among
consumers,
only
18%
are
even
aware
that
eco-fashion
exists,
up
from
6%
four
years
ago.
Natalie
Hormilla,
a
fashion
writer,
is
an
example
of
the
unconverted
consumer.
When
asked
if
she
owned
any
sustainable
clothes,
she
replied,
“Not
that
I’m
aware
of.”
Like
most
consumers,
she
finds
little
time
to
shop,
and
when
she
does,
she’s
on
the
hunt
for
“cute
stuff
that
isn’t
too
expensive.”
By
her
own
admission,
green
just
isn’t
yet
on
her
mind.
But
thanks
to
the
combined
efforts
of
designers,
retailers
and
suppliers—one
day
it
will
be.
51.
What
is
said
about
Future
Fashion?
A.
It
inspired
leading
designers
to
start
going
green.
B.
It
showed
that
designers
using
organic
fabrics
would
go
far.
C.
It
served
as
an
example
of
how
fashion
shows
should
be
organized.
D.
It
convinced
the
public
that
fashionable
clothes
should
be
made
durable.
52.
According
to
Scott
Hahn,
one
big
challenge
to
designers
who
will
go
organic
is
that
________.
A.
much
more
time
is
needed
to
finish
a
dress
using
sustainable
materials
B.
they
have
to
create
new
brands
for
clothes
made
of
organic
materials
C.
customers
have
difficulty
telling
organic
from
non-organic
materials
D.
quality
organic
replacements
for
synthetics
are
not
readily
available
53.
We
learn
from
Paragraph
3
that
designers
who
undertake
green
fashion
________.
A.
can
attend
various
trade
shows
for
free
B.

world
C.

organic
cotton
at
favorable
prices
D.
are
gaining
more
and
more
support
54.
What
is
Natalie
Hormilla’s
attitude
toward
eco-fashion?
A.
She
doesn’t
seem
to
care
about
it.
B.
She
doesn’t
think
it
is
sustainable.
C.
She
is

Fashion
的时尚展览，证明了环保设计的到来。展览由纽约的Earth
Pledge组织，作者也介绍了走环保时尚的设计师仍面临很多困难，但是他们也得到了很多支持。总有一天，绿色时尚会成为主流。
【51题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Organized
by
the
New

nonprofit
Earth

the

inspired
many
top
designers
to
work
with
sustainable
fabrics
for

Pledge来组织，激发了许多顶级设计师首次使用可持续面料。从那以后，有几家公司承诺在他们的产品系列中使用有机面料。)”可知A项内容“Future
Fashion
激励了很多顶级设计师开始走绿色环保路线”正确，故选A项。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The
designers
who
undertake
green
fashion
still
face
many
challenges.
Scott
Hahn,
a
cofounder
with
Gregory
of
Rogan
and
Loomstate,
which

all-organic
cotton,
says
high-quality
sustainable
materials
can
still
be

to
find.(从事绿色时尚的设计师们仍然面临着许多挑战。Scott
Hahn与格雷戈里共同创立了Rogan
and
Loomstate公司，该公司使用的是全有机棉花。Hahn表示，高质量的可持续材料仍然很难找到。)”以及Hahn说的话“Most
designers
with
existing
labels
are
finding
there
aren’t
comparable
materials
that
can
just
replace
what
you’re
doing
and
what
your
customers
are
used
to.(大多数现有品牌的设计师都发现，没有可比的材料可以取代你正在做的和你的顾客已经习惯了的东西)”可知根据Scott
Hahn的说法，那些想要走有机路线的设计师面临的一大挑战是没有相似的纤维材料来取代现有的和消费者已经习惯使用的材料，即高质量的有机合成材料替代品并不容易获得。故选D项。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Those
who
do
make
the
switch
are
finding
they
have
more
support.(那些做出改变的人发现他们得到了更多的支持。)可知走环保路线的设计师得到了越来越多的支持，故选D项。

Hormilla的描述为“unconverted
consumer
(想法未改变的消费者)，当她被问到是否拥有sustainable
clothes时的回答“Not
that
I’m
aware
of.(据我所知没有。)以及作者还补充说“By
her
own
admission,
green
just
isn’t
yet
on
her
mind.(据她自己承认，她还没有环保这个概念。)可知Natalie
Hormilla对环保时尚不关心，不在乎
。故选A项。

(C)
By
now
you’ve
probably
heard
about
the
“you’re
not
special”
speech,
when
English
teacher
David
McCullough
told
graduating
seniors
at
Wellesley
High
School:
“Do
not
get
the
idea
you’re
anything
special,
because
you’re
not.”
Mothers
and
fathers
present
at
the
ceremony
—
and
a
whole
lot
of
other
parents
across
the
Internet
—
took
issue
with
McCullough’s
ego-puncturing
words.
But
lost
in
the
uproar
was
something
we
really
should
be
taking
to
heart:
our
young
people
actually
have
no
idea
whether
they’re
particularly
talented
or
accomplished
or
not.
In
our
eagerness
to
elevate
their
self-esteem,
we
forgot
to
teach
them
how
to
realistically
assess
their
own
abilities,
a
crucial
requirement
for
getting
better
at
anything
from
math
to
music
to
sports.
In
fact,
it’s
not
just
privileged
high-school
students:
we
all
tend
to
view
ourselves
as
above
average.
Such
inflated
self-judgments
have
been
found
in
study
after
study,
and
it’s
often
exactly
when
we’re
least
competent
at
a
given
task
that
we
rate
our
performance
most
generously.
In
a
2006
study
published
in
the
journal
Medical
Education,
for
example,
medical
students
who
scored
the
lowest
on
an
essay
test
were
the
most
charitable
in
their
self-evaluations,
while
high-scoring
students
judged
themselves
much
more
strictly.
Poor
students,
the
authors
note,
“lack
insight”
into
their
own
inadequacy.
Why
should
this
be?
Another
study,
led
by
Cornell
University
psychologist
David
Dunning,
offers
an
enlightening
explanation.
People
who
are
incompetent,
he
writes
with
coauthor
Justin
Kruger,
suffer
from
a
“dual
burden”:
they’re
not
good
at
what
they
do,
and
their
very
incapability
prevents
them
from
recognizing
how
bad
they
are.
In
Dunning
and
Kruger’s
study,
subjects
scoring
at
the
bottom
of
the
heap
on
tests
of
logic,
grammar
and
humor
“extremely
overestimated”
their
talents.
What
these
individuals
lacked
(in
addition
to
clear
logic,
proper
grammar
and
a
sense
of
humor)
was
“metacognitive
skill”:
the
capacity
to
monitor
how
well
they’re
performing.
In
the
absence
of
that
capacity,
the
subjects
arrived
at
an
overly
hopeful
view
of
their
own
abilities.
There’s
a
paradox
here,
the
authors
note:
“The
skills
that
lead
to
competence
in
a
particular
domain
are
often
the
very
same
skills
necessary
to
evaluate
competence
in
that
domain.”
In
other
words,
to
get
better
at
judging
how
well
we’re
doing
at
an
activity,
we
have
to
get
better
at
the
activity
itself.
There
are
a
couple
of
ways
out
of
this
double
bind.
First,
we
can
learn
to
make
honest
comparisons
with
others.
Train
yourself
to
recognize
excellence,
even
when
you
yourself
don’t
possess
it,
and
compare
what
you
can
do
against
what
truly
excellent
individuals
are
able
to
accomplish.
Second,
seek
out
feedback
that
is
frequent,
accurate
and
specific.
Find
a
critic
who
will
tell
you
not
only
how
poorly
you’re
doing,
but
just
what
it
is
that
you’re
doing
wrong.
As
Dunning
and
Kruger
note,
success
indicates
to
us
that
everything
went
right,
but
failure
is
more
ambiguous:
any
number
of
things
could
have
gone
wrong.
Use
this
external
feedback
to
figure
out
exactly
where
and
when
you
screwed
up.
If
we
adopt
these
strategies
—
and
most
importantly,
teach
them
to
our
children
—
they
won’t
need
parents,
or
a
commencement
(毕业典礼)
speaker,
to
tell
them
that
they’re
special.
They’ll
already
know
that
they
are,
or
have
a
plan
to
get
that
way.

(D)
It’s
possible
to
admire
Oprah
Winfrey
and
still
wish
Harvard
hadn’t
awarded
her
an
honorary
doctor
of
law
degree
and
the
commencement
speaker
spot
at
yesterday’s
graduation.
There’s
no
question
Oprah’s
achievements
place
her
in
the
temple
of
American
success
stories.
Talent,
charm,
and
an
exceptional
work
ethic
have
rarely
hurled
anyone
as
far
as
they
have
this
former
abused
teenage
mother
from
rural
Mississippi
who
became
one
of
the
world’s
most
successful
entertainment
icons
and
the
first
African-American
female
billionaire.
Honorary
degrees
are
often
conferred
on
non-academic
leaders
in
the
arts,
business,
and
politics.
Harvard’s
list
in
recent
years
has
included
Kofi
fi
Annan,
Bill
Gates,
Meryl
Streep,
and
David
Souter.
But
Oprah’s
particular
brand
of
celebrity
is
not
a
good
fit
for
the
values
of
a
university
whose
motto,
Veritas,
means
truth.
Oprah’s
passionate
advocacy
extends,
unfortunately,
to
a
hearty
embrace
of
fake
science.
Most
notoriously,
Oprah’s
validation
of
Jenny
McCarthy’s
claim
that
vaccines
cause
autism
has
no
doubt
contributed
to
much
harm
through
the
foolish
avoidance
of
vaccines.
Famous
people
are
entitled
to
a
few
failings,
like
the
rest
of
us.
And
the
choice
of
commencement
speakers
often
reflects
a
balance
of
institutional
priorities
and
aspirations.
Judging
from
our
conversations
with
many
students,
Oprah
was
a
widely
popular
choice.
But
this
vote
of
confidence
in
Oprah
sends
a
troubling
message
at
precisely
the
time
when
American
universities
need
to
do
more
to
advance
the
cause
of
reason.
As
former
Dean
of
Harvard
College,
Harry
Lewis,
noted
in
a
blog
post
about
his
objections.
“It
seems
very
odd
for
Harvard
to
honor
such
a
high
profile
popularizer
of
the
irrational…
at
a
time
when
political
and
religious
nonsense
so
jeopardize
the
rule
of
reason
in
this
allegedly
enlightened
democracy
and
around
the
world.”
As
America’s
oldest
and
most
visible
university,
Harvard
has
a
special
opportunity
to
convey
its
respect
for
science
not
only
through
its
research
and
teaching
programs
but
also
in
its
public
affirmation
of
evidence-based
inquiry.
Unfortunately,
many
American
universities
seem
awfully
busy
protecting
their
brand
name
and
not
nearly
busy
enough
protecting
the
pursuit
of
knowledge.
A
recent
article
in
The
Harvard
Crimson
noted
the
shocking
growth
of
Harvard’s
public
relations
arm
in
the
last
five
years
and
it
questioned
whether
a
focus
on
risk
management
and
avoiding
controversy
was
really
the
best
outward-looking
face
of
this
great
institution.
As
American
research
universities
begin
to
resemble
profit
centers
and
entertainment
complexes,
it’s
easy
to
lose
sight
of
their
primary
mission:
to
produce
and
spread
knowledge.
This
mission
depends
on
traditions
of
rational
discourse
and
vigorous
defense
of
the
scientific
method.
Oprah
Winfrey’s
honorary
doctorate
was
a
step
in
the
wrong
direction.
63.
What
do
we
learn
about
Oprah
Winfrey
from
the
passage?
A.
She
was
a
distinguished
graduate
of
Harvard
School
of
Law.
B.
She
worked
her
way
to
success
in
the
entertainment
industry.
C
She
used
to
abuse
her
children
when
she
was
a
young
mother.
D.
She
achieved
her
fame
through
persistent
advocacy
of
fake
science.
64.
Why
does
the
author
think
it
inappropriate
for
Harvard
to
confer
an
honorary
degree
on
Oprah
Winfrey?
A
She
did
not
specialize
in
the
study
of
law.
B.
She
was
known
as
a
supporter
of
fake
science.
C.
She
was
an
icon
of
the
entertainment
industry
D.
She
had
not
distinguished
herself
academically.

What
is
the

A.
They
show
inadequate
respect
for
evidence-based
inquiry.
B.
They
fall
short
of
expectations
in
teaching
and
research.
C.
They
all
attach
too
much
importance
to
public

D.
They
are
tolerant
of
political

66.
What
does
the

Read
the

passage.
Fill
in

blank
with
a
proper
sentence
given

box.
Each
sentence
can
be
used
only
once.
Note
that

Intelligence
was
believed
to
be
a
fixed
entity,
some
faculty
of
the
mind
that
we
all
possess
and
which
determines
in
some
way
the
extent
of
our
achievements.
Today,
we
are
beginning
to
think
differently.
In
the
last
few
years,
research
has
thrown
doubt
on
the
view
that
innate
intelligence
can
ever
be
measured
and
on
the
very
nature
of
intelligence
itself.
___67___Children
with
poor
home
backgrounds
not
only
do
less
well
in
their
school
work
and
intelligence
tests
but
their
performance
tends
to
deteriorate
gradually
compared
with
that
of
their
more
fortunate
classmates.
There
are
evidences
that
support
the
view
that
we
have
to
distinguish
between
genetic
intelligence
and
observed
intelligence.
Any
deficiency
in
the
appropriate
genes
will
restrict
development
no
matter
how
stimulating
the
environment
is.
We
cannot
observe
and
measure
innate
intelligence,
whereas
we
can
observe
and
measure
the
effects
of
the
interaction
of
whatever
is
inherited
with
whatever
stimulation
has
been
received
from
the
environment.
Researchers
have
been
investigating
what
happens
in
this
interaction.
___68___Firstly,
the
greater
part
of
the
development
of
observed
intelligence
occurs
in
the
earliest
years
of
life.
It
is
estimated
that
50
percent
of
measurable
intelligence
at
age
17
is
already
predictable
by
the
age
of
four.
Secondly,
the
most
important
factors
in
the
environment
are
language
and
psychological
aspects
of
the
parent-child
relationship.
These
research
findings
have
led
to
a
revision
in
our
understanding
of
the
nature
of
intelligence.
Instead
of
it
being
some
largely
inherited
fixed
power
of
the
mind,
we
now
see
it
as
a
set
of
developed
skills
with
which
a
person
copes
with
any
environment.
___69___
The
modern
ideas
concerning
the
nature
of
intelligence
are
bound
to
have
some
effect
on
our
school
system.
In
one
respect
a
change
is
already
occurring.
With
the
move
toward
comprehensive
education
and
the
development
of
unstreamed
classes,
fewer
children
will
be
given
the
label
“low
IQ”.
___70___
A.
These
skills
have
to
be
learned
and,
indeed,
one
of
them
is
learning
how
to
learn.
B.
Two
major
findings
have
emerged
from
these
researches.
C.
Intelligence
tests
could
be
used
for
streaming
children
according
to
ability
at
an
early
age.
D.
There
is
considerable
evidence
now
which
shows
the
great
influence
of
environment
both
on
achievement
and
intelligence.
E.
Intelligence
is
most
widely
studied
in
humans,
but
has
also
been
observed
in
non-human
animals
and
in
plants.
F.
The
idea
that
we
can
teach
children
to
be
intelligent
in
the
same
way
that
we
can
teach
them
reading
or
arithmetic
is
accepted
by
more
and
more
people.

这是一篇说明文。人们曾经一度相信，智力是一个孩子天生所具有的，我们可以根据孩子的智力水平判断他/她在将来是否会取得成功。然而科学研究对内在智力可以衡量这一观点以及智力的实质本身都表示怀疑。目前大量的证据表明环境对成就和智力有巨大的影响，它不是很大程度上遗传的大脑的固定能力，我们现在把它看做一系列发展起来的可以应付任何环境的技能。我们能够像教孩子阅读或算术一样教孩子变聪明的观念被越来越多的人所接受。

thrown
doubt
on
the
view
that
innate
intelligence
can
ever
be
measured
and
on
the
very
nature
of
intelligence
itself.（在过去的几年里，科学研究对内在智力可以衡量这一观点以及智力的实质本身都表示怀疑。）”和空后“Children
with
poor
home
backgrounds
not
only
do
less
well
in
their
school
work
and
intelligence
tests
but
their
performance
tends
to
deteriorate
gradually
compared
with
that
of
their
more
fortunate
classmates.（家境贫寒的孩子不仅在学业和智力测试上表现较差，而且与那些比较幸运的同学相比，他们的表现往往会逐渐恶化。）”可知，D项（现在有相当多的证据表明环境对成就和智力都有很大的影响。）能够承接上文并且与下文连接通顺，空后是在为选项D举例子，家庭贫困是环境因素之一。故选D项。
【68题详解】
考查段首句。根据空后“Firstly,
the
greater
part
of
the
development
of
observed
intelligence
occurs
in
the
earliest
years
of
life.
It
is
estimated
that
50
percent
of
measurable
intelligence
at
age
17
is
already
predictable
by
the
age
of
four.
Secondly,
the
most
important
factors
in
the
environment
are
language
and
psychological
aspects
of
the
parent-child
relationship.（首先，观察到的智力发展的大部分发生在生命的最初几年。据估计，17岁时可测智力的50%在4岁时就已经可以预测了。其次，环境中最重要的因素是亲子关系的语言和心理方面。）”可知，B项（从这些研究中有两个主要的发现。）能够与下文连接通顺。选项B中的two与后面的firstly和secondly相对应。故选B项。
【69题详解】
考查段尾句。根据空前“Instead
of
it
being
some
largely
inherited
fixed
power
of
the
mind,
we
now
see
it
as
a
set
of
developed
skills
with
which
a
person
copes
with
any
environment.（与其说它是某种很大程度上继承下来的思维定势，不如说我们现在把它看作是一套成熟的技能，一个人可以用它来应对任何环境。）”可知，A项（必须学习这些技能，事实上，其中之一就是学习如何学习。）能够承接上文。选项A中的skills与前一句的skills是同词复现。故选A项。
【70题详解】
考查段尾句。根据空前“With
the
move
toward
comprehensive
education
and
the
development
of
unstreamed
classes,
fewer
children
will
be
given
the
label
“low
IQ”（随着综合教育的发展和不再按智力分班，越来越少的孩子会被贴上“低智商”的标签）”可知，F项（我们可以像教孩子阅读或算术那样教他们聪明的想法被越来越多的人接受了。）能够承接上文。选项F中的“we
can
teach
children
to
be
intelligent”与前一句中的“fewer
children
will
be
given
the
label
low
IQ”是同义的。故选F项。
【点睛】六选四的解题技巧之一是根据上下文词汇来锁定线索。即：要关注空白前后的名词和动词，然后在选项中查找它们的近义词、反义词、同义词、同类词等，看是否有同词复现。其次是一些专有名词，数词、代词、时间、年代、地点/名称等。第2小题：选项B中的two与后面的firstly和secondly相对应；第3小题：选项A中的skills与前一句的skills是同词复现；第4小题：选项F中的“we
can
teach
children
to
be
intelligent”与前一句中的“fewer
children
will
be
given
the
label
low
IQ”是同义的。

much
appreciate
your/you
sparing
no

为动名词的复合结构。“不遗余力地做某事”可以用“spare
no
effort/make
every

to
do

…
from…“保护……不受……”。再根据其它汉语提示，故翻译为：We
much
appreciate
your/you

every

to
protect
the
Shanghai

from

work
as
an

which
made
him
stand

in
the

for
the

【解析】
【详解】考查动词、短语、定语从句和非谓语动词。分析句子，该句应使用一般过去时，表示“熟练掌握”应用短语（have）
a
good
command
of，在句中做主语，以动词have位于句首需用其动名词形式；表示“胜任”动词为qualify，应用其过去式在句中作谓语；表示“使某人……”用动词短语make
sb.
do，make用其过去式；表示“激烈的职业竞争”短语为the
fierce
competition
for
the
job/position，作“竞争”讲不可数；表示“在……脱颖而出”应用短语stand
out
in...；该句可使用关系词which引导定语从句，先行词为having
a
good
command
of
English。故翻译为(Having)
a
good

of
English
qualified
him
as
an
interpreter/to
work
as
an
interpreter,
which
made
him
stand
out

由于难以抵挡巨大的同辈压力，许多高中生被迫去家教中心补习，以免掉队。(in
case)
（汉译英）
【答案】Being
unable
to
resist/Because
it
is
hard
to
resist
the
enormous
peer
pressure,
many
high
school
students
are
forced
to
go
to

in
case
they
are
left
behind.
【解析】
【详解】考查目的状语从句，时间状语从句，非谓语动词和固定句型。根据汉语提示可知，本句陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时。“由于难以抵挡巨大的同辈压力”可以作为原因状语从句，也可用非谓语动词作原因状语。“抵抗巨大的同辈压力”表达为
resist
the
enormous
peer
pressure，状语从句里可涉及一个固定句型It
is
+
adj.
to
do
sth.“做某事是......”；非谓语动词作状语时，涉及短语be
unable
to
do
sth.“不能做某事”，它和逻辑主语“高中生”之间是主动关系，故用现在分词。“许多高中生”表达为many
high
school
students，该词作为主句主语；“被迫做某事”表达为be
forced
to
do
sth.，该词作为主句谓语动词，因主语是复数，故be动词用are；
“去家教中心”表达为go
to
tutorial
centers。in
case意为“以免”，引导目的状语从句，“掉队”表达为leave
behind，作从句谓语，和主语“高中生”之间是被动关系，故用一般现在时的被动语态。再结合其他汉语提示，故本句译为：Being
unable
to
resist/Because
it
is
hard
to
resist
the
enormous
peer
pressure,
many
high
school
students
are
forced
to
go
to
tutorial
centers
in
case
they
are

sb.
to
do
sth./
recommend
that
sb.

do
sth.;
“开私家车”表达为drive
one’s
own

“搭乘公共交通”表达为take

some
degree。结合其他汉语提示，故翻译为：The
