reasons,from differences in labour costs and rents to taxes.Rising to the challenge is a new paper in The Economic Journal by Giacomo Calzolari,Andrea Ichino,Francesco Manaresi and Viki Nellas,economists at the European University Institute,Bologna University and the Italian central bank.They looked at pharmacies(药房)and specifically at customers who may be particularly easy to rip off:new parents.Using data for 2007 to 2010 covering about a fifth of pharmacies in Italy,the researchers measured the way in which prices of hygiene products for babies changed as the number of babies varied.They took advantage of a peculiar law from the 1960s,according to which regions with at most 7,500 people are allowed just one pharmacy (supposedly to keep the quality of services high).They compared prices in places with populations just below this threshold,and just above.The products studied included some 3,000 varieties of shampoos,bath foams,baby wipes,creams and so on.Many are also used by adults on themselves.Some people,for example,prefer sun﹣cream labeled "for children" because of its high level of protection.When raising prices for these products,even a pharmacist with a monopoly(垄断)must consider the risk that adult users will switch to products that are not aimed at children.But a rise in the number of babies,and hence buyers who are parents,could tip thescales towards price increases.By contrast,the pharmacist should already be charging as much as parents are willing to pay for products without adult users,such as nappies.The scholars found that pharmacists raised prices when there were more new parents﹣﹣﹣﹣but only in regions with a single pharmacy,and not for nappies.In monopoly areas a doubling of the number of babies from one month to the next (not unusual in a small population)coincided with a 5% increase in the price of the basket of baby﹣hygiene products.The study is timely.Italy's government has started to loosen some of the many restrictions that stop competition in the pharmacy sector (though not yet the one that the researchers relied on).But such regulations are plentiful in many other lines of business,and not just in Italy.The consumers who pay the price are often those who find it hardest to travel to shop around﹣﹣﹣﹣for example,people with crying babies on their hands.(1)What's the purpose of the studyA.To review the function of the special law for pharmacies.B.To make clear the relation between competition and prices.C.To collect the information on pharmacy business in Italy.D.To gather the data on hygiene products for babies in Italy.(2)"tip the scales" in Paragraph 3 means "".A.Push the moveB.Keep the levelC.Control the riseD.Break the balance(3)The government's new measures will greatly benefit.A.pharmacy ownersB.local merchantsC.new parentsD.adult users29.(8分)Listen carefully to the footsteps in the family home,especially if it has wooden floors,and you can probably work out who it is that is walking about.The features most commonly used to identify people are faces,voices,finger prints and retinal scans.But their"behavioural biometrics",such as the way they walk,are also giveaways.Researchers have,for several years,used video cameras and computers to analyse people's gaits,and are now quite good at it.But translating such knowledge into a practical identification system can be tricky﹣﹣﹣﹣especially if that system is supposed to be hidden.Cameras are often visible,are hard to set up,require good lighting and may have their view blocked by other people.So a team led by Krikor Ozanyan of the University of Manchester,in England and Patricia Scully of the National University of Ireland,in Galway have been looking for a better way to recognize gait.Their answer:pressure﹣sensitive mats.In themselves,such mats are nothing new.They have been part of security systems for donkeys' years.But Dr.Ozanyan And Dr.Scully use a complex version that can record the amount of pressure applied in different places as someone walks across it.These measurements form a pattern unique to the walker.Dr.Ozanyan and Dr.Scully therefore turned,as is now common for anything to do with pattern recognition,to an Artificial Intelligence system that uses machine learning to recognize such patterns.It seems to work.In a study published earlier this year the two researchers tested their system on a database of footsteps trodden by 127 different people.They found that its error rate in identifying who was who was a mere %.And Dr.Scully says that even without a database of footsteps to work with the system can determine someone's sex﹣﹣﹣women and men,with wide and narrow pelvises(骨盆)respectively,walk in different ways,﹣﹣﹣﹣and guess,with reasonable accuracy,a subject's age.A mat﹣based gait﹣recognition system has the advantage that it would work in any lighting conditions﹣﹣﹣﹣even pitch﹣darkness.And though it might fail to identify someone if,say,she was wearing stilettos and had been entered into the database while wearing trainers,it would be very hard to fool it by imitating the gait of an individual who was allowed admission to a particular place.The latest phase of Dr.Ozanyan's and Dr.Scully's project is a redesign of the mat.The old mats contained individual pressure sensors.The new ones contain optical fibres(光纤).Light﹣emitting diodes(二极管)distributed along two neighbouring edges of a mat transmit light into the fibres.Sensors on the opposite edges(and thus the opposite ends of the optical fibres)measure how much of that light is received.Any pressure applied to part of themat causes a distortion(变形)in the fibres and a consequent change in the amount of light transmitted.Both the location and amount of change can be plotted and analyzed by the machine﹣learning system.Dr.Ozanyan says that the team have built a demonstration fibre﹣optic mat,two meters long and a metre wide,using materials that cost £100($130).They are now talking to companies about commercializing it.One application might be in health care,particularly for the elderly.A fibre﹣optic mat installed in a nursing home or an old person's own residence could monitor changes in an individual's gait that warn certain illnesses.That would provide early warning of someone being at greater risk of falling over,say,or of their cognition becoming damaged.Gait analysis might also be used ass a security measure in the workplace,monitoring access to restricted areas,such as parts of military bases,server farms or laboratories dealing with harmful materials.In these cases,employees would need to agree to their gaits being scanned,just as they would agree to the scanning of their faces or retinas for optical security systems.Perhaps the most fascinating use of gait﹣recognition mats,though,would be in public places,such as airports.For that to work,the footsteps of those to be recognized would need to have been stored in a database,which would be harder to arrange than the collection of mugshots and fingerprints that existing airport security systems rely on.Some people,however,might volunteer for it.Many aircrew or pre﹣registered frequent flyers would welcome anything that speeded up one of the most tiresome parts of modern travel.(1)Camera﹣based gait recognition fails to come into wide use,because.a.it's not easy to find the camerasb.finger print recognition is still popularc.sometimes the cameras can be coveredd.it's a waste of money to fix the equipmente.good lighting conditions can't be guaranteedf.it's difficult to set up the system.A.acfB.bdeC.cdfD.cef(2)Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 6﹣8A.The new mats function greatly with individual pressure sensors built in.B.The new mats

beforehand.(3)What does "it" refer to in Paragraph 5A.The mat﹣based gait﹣recognition systemB.The gait stored in the databaseC.The advantage of working in any light condition.D.The admission to a particular place.(4)What's the best title of the passageA.Listen to your footstepsB.Applaud pattern recognitionC.Love the way you walkD.Better the mats you step on30.(12分)"With depressingly few exceptions,performances are dull and lack vitality…After years of trying to convince myself otherwise,I now feel sure that ballet is dying."﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣Jennifer Homans,Apollo's Angels Is ballet dead Has the art form evolved to depression Jennifer Homans's conclusion to her fascinating history of ballet,Apollo's Angels,is worrying.It appears that ballet's pulse continues to beat strongly,however,especially with a Tchaikovsky defibrillator attached.So why are some dance commentators arguing that ballet is dying And do they have a point"Ballet is dead"﹣﹣﹣﹣"Ballet is dying" ﹣﹣﹣all ring tones of Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophical claim:"God is dead." Headline grabbling,certainly.Yet can ballet be defined in such black and white terms Surely it is more abstract,filled with shades of popular grey.①.To start with,how do you define ballet What is ballet today Consider popular modernclassics like Twyla Tharp's In the Upper Room,where dancers wear pointy shoes and sneakers,combining contemporary and classical vocabulary together.Or closer to home,there is Graeme Murphy's Swan Lake,which layers elements of Petipa's choreography(编舞)with a contemporary theme and aesthetic.Many contemporary choreographers all embrace classical form and principles,then manipulate(操纵)the rules.②.The line between contemporary dance and ballet is vague.In an interview with The Telegraph (2015),British choreographer Mattew Bourne acknowledges that this "cross﹣fertilisation" between contemporary dance and ballet continues to grow,as evidenced by the rise in new commissions from contemporary choreographers at the Royal Ballet and English National Ballet.Referring to Homans's book,Bourne believes what has changed is that "the dance forms are coming closer together".Not dying,but merging.Reinventing.This has been the case amongst Australasian ballet companies for many years now.③.Homans writes that ballet's decline began after the passing of Ashton and Balanchine.Something ahs changed,certainly.A stylisic transition﹣﹣﹣﹣from neo﹣classical to contemporary ballet﹣﹣﹣﹣has occurred.④.Our art form's evolution has always been with extinction.Prominent dance critic with The New York Times,Alastair Macaulay,says:"ballet has died again and again over the centuries," and yet,"phoenix﹣like,rose again from its ashes".History shows there were periods where ballet hibernated and lacked popularity.This coincided with the art form's changing forums.So here is the irony:what sells best,still,are reproductions of Petipa's classics.A season without a Tchaikovsky score is a financial risk.And without Nutcracker(《桃夹子》),half the ballet companies in North America would not exist.Admittedly,as a dancer,my favourite roles﹣﹣﹣Albrecht,Prince Siegfried and Romeo﹣﹣﹣﹣were from the classical canon;I am a traditionalist at heart (who loves to be challenged by good contemporary ballets).A part of the charm behind classical repertoire,for me,was in reproducing the glories of past greats.Classical ballet's framework supports the modern process of bench﹣marking.Perhaps Jennifer Homans's thoughts are not completely unfounded.Perhaps ballet is dying for some.Ballet's evolution has been delayed by its audiences.And as Homans suggests in her epilogue,perhaps also by its creatives.Now here is a bold prediction.In line with the Royal Ballet's programming in Brisbane this year﹣﹣﹣﹣of Christopher Wheeldon's The Winter's Tale,and Wayne MacGregor's Woolf Works﹣﹣﹣﹣over the next 20 years,ballet's reliance on Petipa will decrease.Contemporary ballets and merge﹣styled ballets will produce their box﹣office influence ever more.WhyIt is simple:our audiences will be ready for ballet to change again.(1)Why does the writer cite Jennifer Homans's words at the beginning of the passage A.To support the writer's viewpoint.B.To introduce the topic of the passage.C.To highlight the theme of the passageD.To provide the background knowledge.(2)The sentence ‘Is this not ballet" should be put in.A.①B.②C.③D.④(3)Which of the following statements is a fact about balletA."Surely it is more abstract,filled with shades of popular grey." ()B."The line between contemporary dance and ballet is vague." ()C."Our art form's evolution has always been with extinction." ()D."What sells best,still,are reproductions of Petipa's classics." ().(4)According to Matthew Bourne,.A.the dance forms remain unchangedB.contemporary dance has reinvented classic balletC.ballet is experiencing growth and will continue to developD.a new form of ballet is widely accepted among Australians(5)The writer takes himself as an example in Paragraph 8 in order to show.A.classics should be promotedB.classics are still of great significanceC.classical ballet's framework is out of dateD.contemporary ballets attract more audiences(6)What may be the audiences' attitude to the change of balletA.Supportive.B.Arbitrary.C.Critical.D.Concerned第四部分任务型阅读(满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词.注意:请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上.每个空格只填1个单词.31.(10分)Anyone who's ever made room for a big milestone of adult life﹣﹣﹣﹣a job,a marriage,a move﹣﹣﹣﹣has likely shoved a friendship to the side.After all,there is no contract locking us to the other person,as in marriage,and there are no blood bonds,as in family.We choose our friends,and our friends choose us.That's a really distinctive attribute of friendships.But modern life can become so busy that people forget to keep choosing each other.That's when friendships fade,and there's reason to believe it's happening more than ever.Loneliness is on the rise,and feeling lonely has been found to increase a person's risk of dying early by 26%﹣﹣﹣﹣and to be even worse for the body than obesity and air pollution.Loneliness damages health in many ways,particularly because it removes the safety net of social support."When we perceive our world as threatening,that can be associated with an increase in heart rate and blood pressure."The solution is simple:friendship.It helps protect the brain and body from stress,anxiety and depression."Being around trusted others,in essence,signals safety and security," says Holt﹣Lunstad.A study last year found that friendships are especially beneficial later in life.Having supportive friends in old age is a stronger predictor of well﹣being than family ties﹣﹣﹣﹣suggesting that the friends you pick may be at least as important as the family you're born into.Easy as the fix may sound,it can be difficult to keep and make friends as an adult.But research suggests that you only need between four and five close pals.If you've ever had a good one,you know hat you're looking for."The expectations of friends,once you have a mature understanding of friendship,don't really change across the life course," Rawlins says."People want their close friends to be someone they can talk to and someone they can depend upon."If you're trying to fill a dried﹣up friendship pool,start by looking inward.Think back to how you met some of your very favorite friends.V olunteering on a political campaign or in a favorite spin class Playing in a band "Friendships are always about something," says Rawlins.Common passions help people bond at a personal level,and they bridge people of different ages and life experiences.Whatever you're into,someone else is too.Let your passion guide you toward people.Volunteer,for example,take a new course or join a committee at your community centers.If you like yoga,start going to classes regularly.Fellow dog lovers tend to gather at dog runs.Using apps and social media﹣﹣﹣﹣like Facebook to find a local book club﹣﹣﹣﹣is also a good way to find easy﹣going folks.Once you meet a potential future friend,then comes the scary part:inviting them to do something."You do have to put yourself out there," says Janice McCabe,associate professor of sociology at Dartmouth College and a friendship researcher."There's a chance that the person will say no.But there's also the chance they'll say yes,and something really great could happen."The process takes time,and you may experience false starts.Not everyone will want to put in the effort necessary to be a good friend.It's never too late to start being a better pal.The work you put into friendships﹣﹣﹣﹣both new and old ﹣﹣﹣will be well worth it for your health and happiness.Outline Supporting detailsProblems●Making friends (1)people of negative feelings,especially benefiting the old.However,quick﹣paced life robs people of the time to。

labour costs and rents to taxes.Rising to the challenge is a new paper in The Economic Journal by Giacomo Calzolari,Andrea Ichino,Francesco Manaresi and Viki Nellas,economists at the European University Institute,Bologna University and the Italian central bank.They looked atpharmacies(药房)and specifically at customers who may be particularly easy to rip off:new parents.Using data for 2007 to 2010 covering about a fifth of pharmacies in Italy,the researchers measured the way in which prices of hygiene products for babies changed as the number of babies varied.They took advantage of a peculiar law from the 1960s,according to which regions with at most 7,500 people are allowed just one pharmacy (supposedly to keep the quality of services high).They compared prices in places with populations justresearchers relied on).But such regulations are plentiful in many other lines of business,and not just in Italy.The consumers who pay the price are often those who find it hardest to travel to shop around﹣﹣﹣﹣for example,people with crying babies on their hands.(1)What's the purpose of the study?A.To review the function of the special law for pharmacies.B.To make clear the relation between competition and prices.C.To collect the information on pharmacy business in Italy.D.To gather the data on hygiene products for babies in Italy.(2)"tip the scales" in Paragraph 3 means "".A.Push the moveB.Keep the levelC.Control the riseD.Break the balance(3)The government's new measures will greatly benefit.In themselves,such mats are nothing new.They have been part of security systems for donkeys' years.But Dr.Ozanyan And Dr.Scully use a complex version that can record the amount of pressure applied in different places as someone walks across it.These measurements form a pattern unique to the walker.Dr.Ozanyan and Dr.Scully therefore turned,as is now common for anything to do with pattern recognition,to an Artificial Intelligence system that uses machine learning to recognize such patterns.It seems to work.In a study published earlier this year the two researchers tested theirsystem on a database of footsteps trodden by 127 different people.They found that its error rate in identifying who was who was a mere 0.7%.And Dr.Scully says that even without a database of footsteps to work with the system can determine someone's sex﹣﹣﹣women and men,with wide and narrow pelvises(骨盆)respectively,walk in different ways,﹣﹣﹣﹣and guess,with reasonable accuracy, a subject's age.A mat﹣based gait﹣recognition system has the advantage that it would work in any lighting conditions﹣﹣﹣﹣even pitch﹣darkness.And though it might fail to identifywould provide early warning of someone being at greater risk of falling over,say,or of their cognition becoming damaged.Gait analysis might also be used ass a security measure in the workplace,monitoring access to restricted areas,such as parts of military bases,server farms or laboratories dealing with harmful materials.In these cases,employees would need to agree to their gaits being scanned,just as they would agree to the scanning of their faces or retinas for optical security systems.Perhaps the most fascinating use of gait﹣recognition mats,though,would be in public places,such as airports.For that to work,the footsteps of those to be recognized would need to have been stored in a database,which would be harder to arrange than the collection of mugshots and fingerprints that existing airport security systems rely on.Some people,however,might volunteer for it.Many aircrew or pre﹣registered frequent flyers would welcome anything that speeded up one of the most tiresome parts of modern travel.(1)Camera﹣based gait recognition fails to come into wide use,because.A.The mat﹣based gait﹣recognition systemB.The gait stored in the databaseC.The advantage of working in any light condition.D.The admission to a particular place.(4)What's the best title of the passage?A.Listen to your footstepsB.Applaud pattern

Ballet and English National Ballet.Referring to Homans's book,Bourne believes what has changed is that "the dance forms are coming closer together".Not dying,but merging.Reinventing.This has been the case amongst Australasian ballet companies for many years now.③.Homans writes that ballet's decline began after the passing of Ashton and Balanchine.Something ahs changed,certainly.A stylisic transition﹣﹣﹣﹣from neo﹣classical to contemporary ballet﹣﹣﹣﹣has occurred.④.Our art form's evolution has always been with extinction.Prominent dance critic with The New York Times,Alastair Macaulay,says:"ballet has died again and again over the centuries," and yet,"phoenix﹣like,rose again from its ashes".History shows there were periods where ballet hibernated and lacked popularity.This coincided with the art form's changing forums.So here is the irony:what sells best,still,are reproductions of Petipa's classics.AIt is simple:our audiences will be ready for ballet to change

move﹣﹣﹣﹣has likely shoved a friendship to the side.After all,there is no contract locking us to the other person,as in marriage,and there are no blood bonds,as infamily.We choose our friends,and our friends choose us.That's a really distinctive attribute of friendships.But modern life can become so busy that people forget to keep choosing each other.That's when friendships fade,and there's reason to believe it's happening more than ever.Loneliness is on the rise,and feeling lonely has been found to increase a person's risk of dying early by 26%﹣﹣﹣﹣and to be even worse for the body than obesity

people.Volunteer,for example,take a new course or join a committee at your community centers.If you like yoga,start going to classes regularly.Fellow dog lovers tend to gather at dog runs.Using apps and social media﹣﹣﹣﹣like Facebook to find a local book club﹣﹣﹣﹣is also a good way to find easy﹣going folks.Once you meet a potential future friend,then comes the scary part:inviting them to do something."You do have to put yourself out there," says Janice McCabe,associate professor of sociology at Dartmouth College and a friendship researcher."There's a chance that the person will say

A .£185.4. B .£217.8. C .£267.8 D .£235.4.That competition keeps prices down is well known. But it is hard to measure by just how much, because prices vary for all sorts of reasons, from differences in labour costs and rents to taxes. Rising to the challenge is a new paper in The Economic Journal by Giacomo Calzolari, Andrea Ichino, Francesco Manaresi and Viki Nellas, economists at the European University Institute, Bologna University and the Italian central bank. They looked at pharmacies(药房) and specifically at customers who may be particularly easy to rip off: new parents.Using data for 2007 to 2010 covering about a fifth of pharmacies in Italy, the researchers measured the way in which prices of hygiene products for babies changed as the number of babies varied. They took advantage of a peculiar law from the 1960s, according to which regions with at most 7,500 people are allowed just one pharmacy (supposedly to keep the quality of services high). They compared prices in places with populations just below this threshold, and just above.The products studied included some 3,000 varieties of shampoos, bath foams, baby wipes, creams and so on. Many are also used by adults on themselves. Some people, for example, prefer sun-cream labeled “for children” because of its high level of protection. When rai sing prices for these products, even a pharmacist with a monopoly(垄断) must consider the risk that adult users will switch to products that are not aimed at children. But a rise in the number of babies, and hence buyers who are parents, could tip the scales towards price increases. By contrast, the pharmacist should already be charging as much as parents are willing to pay for products without adult users, such as nappies.The scholars found that pharmacists raised prices when there were more newparents----but only in regions with a single pharmacy, and not for nappies. In monopoly areas a doubling of the number of babies from one month to the next (not unusual in a small population) coincided with a 5% increase in the price of the basket of baby-hygiene products.试卷第7页,总16页The study is timely. Italy’s government has started to loosen some of the many restrictions that stop competition in the pharmacy sector (though not yet the one that the researchers relied on). But such regulations are plentiful in many other lines of business, and not just in Italy. The consumers who pay the price are often those who find it hardest to travel to shop around----for example, people with crying babies on their hands. 38.What’s the purpose of the study?A .To review the function of the special law for pharmacies.B .To make clear the relation between competition and prices.C .To collect the information on pharmacy business in Italy.D .To gather the data on hygiene products for babies in Italy. 39.“tip the scales” in Paragraph 3 means “_____”. A .Push the move B .Keep the level C .Control the riseD .Break the balance40.The government’s new measures will greatly benefit _____. A .pharmacy owners B .local merchants C .new parents D .adult usersListen carefully to the footsteps in the family home, especially if it has wooden floors, and you can probably work out who it is that is walking about. The features most commonly used to identify people are faces, voices, finger prints and retinal scans. But their “behavioural biometrics”, such as the way they walk, are also giveaways.Researchers have, for several years, used video cameras and computers to analyse people’s gaits, and are now quite good at it. But translating such knowledge into a practical identification system can be tricky----especially if that system is supposed to be hidden. Cameras are often visible, are hard to set up, requi5re good lighting and may have their view blocked by other people. So a team led by Krikor Ozanyan of the University of Manchester, in England and Patricia Scully of the National University of Ireland, in Galway have been looking for a better way to recognize gait. Their answer: pressure-sensitive mats.In themselves, such mats are nothing new. They have been part of security systems for donkeys’ years. But Dr. Ozanyan And Dr. Scully use a complex version that can record the amount of pressure applied in different places as someone walks across it. These measurements form a pattern unique to the walker. Dr. Ozanyan and Dr. Scully therefore turned, as is now试卷第8页,总16页common for anything to do with pattern recognition, to an Artificial Intelligence system that uses machine learning to recognize such patterns.It seems to work. In a study published earlier this year the two researchers tested their system on a database of footsteps trodden by 127 different people. They found that its error rate in identifying who was who was a mere 0.7%. And Dr. Scully says that even without a database of footsteps to work with the system can determine someone’s sex ---women and men, with wide and narrow pelvises(骨盆) respectively, walk in different ways,---- and guess, with reasonable accuracy, a subject’s age.A mat-based gait-recognition system has the advantage that it would work in any lighting conditions----even pitch-darkness. And though it might fail to identify someone if, say, she was wearing stilettos and had been entered into the database while wearing trainers, it would be very hard to fool it by imitating the gait of an individual who was allowed admission to a particular place.The latest phase of Dr. Ozanyan’s and Dr. Scully’s project is a redesign of the mat. The old mats contained individual pressure sensors. The new ones contain optical fibres(光纤). Light-emitting diodes(二极管) distributed along two neighbouring edges of a mat transmit light into the fibres. Sensors on the opposite edges( and thus the opposite ends of the optical fibres) measure how much of that light is received. Any pressure applied to part of the mat causes a distortion(变形) in the fibres and a consequent change in the amount of light transmitted. Both the location and amount of change can be plotted and analyzed by the machine-learning system.Dr. Ozanyan says that the team have built a demonstration fibre-optic mat, two meters long and a metre wide, using materials that cost £100($130). They are now talking to companies about commercializing it. One application might be in health care, particularly for the elderly. A fibre-optic mat installed in a nursing home or an old person’s own residence could monitor changes in an individual’s gait that warn certain illnesses. That would provide early warning of someone being at greater risk of falling over, say, or of their cognition becoming damaged.Gait analysis might also be used ass a security measure in the workplace, monitoring access to restricted areas, such as parts of military bases, server farms or laboratories dealing with harmful materials. In these cases, employees would need to agree to their gaits being scanned, just as they would agree to the scanning of their faces or retinas for optical security试卷第9页,总16页systems.Perhaps the most fascinating use of gait-recognition mats, though, would be in public places, such as airports. For that to work, the footsteps of those to be recognized would need to have been stored in a database, which would be harder to arrange than the collection of mugshots and fingerprints that existing airport security systems rely on. Some people, however, might volunteer for it. Many aircrew or pre-registered frequent flyers would welcome anything that speeded up one of the most tiresome parts of modern travel.41.Camera-based gait recognition fails to come into wide use, because _____. a. it’s not easy to find the cameras b. finger print recognition is still popular c. sometimes the cameras can be covered d. it’s a waste of money to fix the equipment e. good lighting conditions can’t be guaranteed f. it’s difficult to set up the system. A .acf B .bde C .cdfD .cef42.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 6-8? A .The new mats function greatly with individual pressure sensors built in. B .The new mats will be likely to work better with enough pressure. C .The elderly are cured of their diseases with the monitor of the fibre-optic. D .Restricted areas are accessible to those with their gaits scanned beforehand. 43.What does “it” refer to in Paragraph 5? A .The mat-based gait-recognition systemB .The gait stored in the databaseC .The advantage of working in any light condition.D .The admission to a particular place. 44.What’s the best title of the passage? A .Listen to your footsteps B .Applaud pattern recognition C .Love the way you walk D .Better the mats you step on“With depressingly few exceptions, performances are dull and lack vitality… After years of trying to convince myself otherwise, I now feel sure that ballet is dying.”-----Jennifer Homans, Apollo’s Angels试卷第10页,总16页……线…………○…………线…………○……Is ballet dead? Has the art form evolved to depression? Jennifer Homans’s conclusion to her fascinating history of ballet, Apollo’s Angels, is worrying.It appears th at ballet’s pulse continues to beat strongly, however, especially with a Tchaikovsky defibrillator attached. So why are some dance commentators arguing that ballet is dying? And do they have a point?“Ballet is dead”----“Ballet is dying” ---all ring tones of Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophical claim: “God is dead.” Headline grabbling, certainly. Yet can ballet be defined in such black and white terms? Surely it is more abstract, filled with shades of popular grey. ①To start with, how do you define ballet? What is ballet today? Consider popular modern classics like Twyla Tharp’s In the Upper Room , where dancers wear pointy shoes and sneakers, combining contemporary and classical vocabulary together. Or closer to home, there is Graeme Murphy’s Swan Lake , wh ich layers elements of Petipa’s choreography(编舞) with a contemporary theme and aesthetic. Many contemporary choreographers all embrace classical form and principles, then manipulate(操纵) the rules. ② .The line between contemporary dance and ballet is vague. In an interview with The Telegraph (2015), British choreographer Mattew Bourne acknowledges that this“cross -fertilisation” between contemporary dance and ballet continues to grow, as evidenced by the rise in new commissions from contemporary choreographers at the Royal Ballet and English National Ballet. Referring to Homans’s book, Bourne believes what has changed is that “the dance forms are coming closer together”. Not dying, but merging. Reinventing. This has been the case amongst Australasian ballet companies for many years now. ③ .Homans writes that ballet’s decline began after the passing of Ashton and Balanchine. Something ahs changed, certainly. A stylisic transition----from neo-classical to contemporary ballet----has occurred. ④Our art form’s evolution has always been with extinction. Prominent dance critic with TheNew York Times, Alastair Macaulay, says: “ballet has died again and again over the centuries,” and yet, “phoenix-like, rose again from its ashes”. History shows there were pe riods where ballet hibernated and lacked popularity. This coincided with the art form’s changing forums.So here is the irony: what sells best, still, are reproductions of Petipa’s classics. A season without a Tchaikovsky score is a financial risk. And without Nutcracker(《胡桃夹子》), half the ballet companies in North America would not exist. Admittedly, as a dancer, my favourite roles---Albrecht, Prince Siegfried and Romeo----were from the classical canon; I am a traditionalist at heart (who loves to be challenged by good contemporary ballets). A part of the charm behind classical repertoire, for me, was in reproducing the glories of past greats. Classical ballet’s framework supports the modern process of bench-marking.Perhaps Jennifer Homans’s thoughts are not completely unfounded. Perhaps ballet is dying for some. Ballet’s evolution has been delayed by its audiences. And as Homans suggests in her epilogue, perhaps also by its creatives.Now here is a bold prediction. In line with the Royal Ballet’s prog ramming in Brisbane this year----of Christopher Wheeldon’s The Winter’s Tale, and Wayne MacGregor’s Woolf Works----over the next 20 years, ballet’s reliance on Petipa will decrease. Contemporary ballets and merge-styled ballets will produce their box-office influence ever more.Why?It is simple: our audiences will be ready for ballet to change again.45.Why does the writer cite Jennifer Homans’s words at the beginning of the passage? A.To support the writer’s viewpoint.B.To introduce the topic of the passage. C.To highlight the theme of the passage D.To provide the background knowledge. 46.The sentence ‘Is this not ballet?” should be put in ______.A.①B.②C.③D.④47.Which of the following statements is a fact about ballet?A.“Surely it is more abstract, filled with shades of popular grey.” (Para.3)B.“The line between contemporary dance and ballet is vague.” (Para.5)C.“Our art form’s evolution has always been with extinction.” (Para.7)D.“What sells best, still, are reproductions of Petipa’s classics.” (Para.8).48.According to Matthew Bourne, _____.B.contemporary dance has reinvented classic balletC.ballet is experiencing growth and will continue to developD.a new form of ballet is widely accepted among Australians49.The writer takes himself as an example in Paragraph 8 in order to show _____.

Headline grabbling,certainly.Yet can ballet be defined in such black and white terms?Surely it is more abstract,filled with shades of popular grey.①.To start with,how do you define ballet?What is ballet today?Consider popular modern classics like Twyla Tharp's In the Upper Room,where dancers wear pointy shoes and sneakers,combining contemporary and classical vocabulary together.Or closer to home,there is Graeme Murphy's Swan Lake,which layers elements of Petipa's choreography(编舞)with a contemporary theme and aesthetic.Many contemporary choreographers all embrace),,.④.,like,roseThisRomeocontemporary ballets).A part of the charm behind classical repertoire,for me,was in reproducing the glories of past greats.Classical ballet's framework supports the modern process of bench﹣marking.Perhaps Jennifer Homans's thoughts are not completely unfounded.Perhaps ballet is dying for some.Ballet's evolution has been delayed by its audiences.And as Homans suggests in her epilogue,perhaps also by its creatives.Now here is a bold prediction.In line with the Royal Ballet's programming in Brisbane this year﹣﹣﹣﹣of Christopher Wheeldon's The Winter's Tale,and Wayne MacGregor's Woolf Works﹣﹣﹣﹣over the next 20 years,ballet's reliance on Petipa will decrease.Contemporary ballets and merge﹣styled ballets will produce their box﹣office influence ever more.Why?It is simple:our audiences will be ready for ballet to change again.(1)Why does the writer cite Jennifer Homans's words at the beginning of the passage?A.To support the writer's

charging as much as parents are willing to pay for products without adult users,such as nappies.The scholars found that pharmacists raised prices when there were more new parents﹣﹣﹣﹣but only in regions with a single pharmacy,and not for nappies.In monopoly areas a doubling of the number of babies from one month to the next (not unusual in a small population)coincided with a 5% increase in

2019-2020学年江苏省盐城中学高三英语第二次联考试卷及答案

2019-2020学年江苏省盐城中学高三英语第二次联考试卷及答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ABook reading is certainly one of the most absorbing habits. For young adults who love to read, finding some good books to read is very essential. Writing a book review can help you to improve your language and writing skills.The Book ThiefListed onThe New York Times Children’s Best Seller List for over 100 weeks, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak is the story of a young girl in the Nazi camps set during World War II. So, if you love history and wish to learn how the life was during Adolf Hitler’s time, read this historic book.The Diary of Young GirlEven Anne Frank can not have imagined that her personal diary written during World War II would become such a popular book. It’s a must read that describes the situation of a family in the evils of wars through the eyes of a teenager.Animal FarmAnimal Farm is one of the most popular books by George Orwell. It is just a reflection of the Stalin and World War II period that has been so creatively presented in this book. It is an interesting example of how literature can be used to present conditions common in the society.Adventures of Huckleberry FinnMark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is one of the great American novels in history, and is certainly a great pick for young adults. Young Huck Finn and his mischief along with the color1 ful description of people around theMississippi Rivermake this novel a great book to read.1.Which book describes the author’s own experiences according to this passage?A.The Book ThiefB.The Diary of Young GirlC.Animal FarmD.Adventures of Huckleberry Finn2.What do the first three books have in common?A.All of them are about wars.B.All of them are about farms.C.All of them are intended for history lovers.D.All of them were written during World War II.3.The purpose of this passage is to _________.A.instruct youngsters how to improve skillsB.tell youngsters some wonderful reading habitsC.introduce several good books to youngstersD.give youngsters advice on writing a book reviewBPlanned missions to the moon need to hurry up to avoid hitting one of the busiest periods for extreme space weather, according to scientists conducting the most in-depth ever research on solar storm timing.Scientists at theUniversityofReadingstudied 150 years of space weather data to look into patterns in the timing of the most extreme events,which can be extremely dangerous to astronauts and satellites. This new research on space weather timing allows predictions to be made for extreme space weather. Therefore, it could be used to plan the timing of activities, which could be affected by extreme space weather, for example, major space missions.The researchers found for the first time that extreme space weather events are more likely to occur early in or late solar cycles-such as the one just starting. The findings may have influences on the NASA-led Artemis mission. It plans to make humans return to the moon in 2024, but can be put off to the late 2020s.Professor Mathew Owens, a space physicist at theUniversityofReading, said, “Until now, the most extreme space weather events were thought to berandomin their timing. Though there is no set pattern of the events, this research suggests they are more predictable.”In the new study, the scientists used a new method applying statistical modelling to storm timing for the first time. Previous research generally focused on how big extreme space weather events can be, based on observations of previous events. Predicting their timing is far more difficult because extreme events are rare, so there is ly little historic data to identify patterns. The findings suggest that any major planned space missions , which is beyond the next five years, will have to consider the higher probability of extreme space weather late in the present solar cycle between 2026 and 2030.4. What can we learn about the study from the first two paragraphs?A. It has lasted just 150 years.B. It doesn't refer to space weather data.C. It shows space weather has no effect on astronauts.D. It makes it possible to predict extreme space weather.5. Why might the NASA-led Artemis mission be put off?A. To research solar cycles.B. To avoid effects of space weather.C. To meet the needs of the astronauts.D. To make humans return to Earth in 2024.6. What does the underlined word “random“ in paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Irregular.B. Easy.C. Limited.D. Changeless.7. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The study is useful for future space missions.B. The planned space missions should be put off.C. Extreme space weather will happen before 2026.D. Previous observations make no difference to the study.COne day when I was 5, my mother criticized me for not finishing my rice and I got angry. I wanted to play outside and not to be made to finish eating my old rice. In my angry motion to open the screen door (纱门) with my foot, I kicked back about a 12-inch part of the lower left hand corner of the new screen door. But I had no regret, for I was happy to be playing in the backyard with my toys.Today, I know if my child had done what I did, I would have criticized my child, and told him about how expensive this new screen door was, and I would have delivered a spanking (打屁股) for it. But my parents never said a word. They left the corner of the screen door pushed out, creating an opening, a crack in the defense against unwanted insects.For years, every time I saw that corner of the screen, it would remind me of my mistake from time to time. For years, I knew that everyone in my family would see that hole and remember who did it. For years, every time I saw a fly buzzing in the kitchen, I would wonder if it came in through the hole that I had created with my angry foot. I would wonder if my family members were thinking the same thing, silently blaming me every time a flying insectentered our home, making life more terrible for us all. My parents taught me a valuable lesson, one that a spanking or stern (严厉的) words perhaps could not deliver. Their silent punishment for what I had done delivered a hundred stern messages to me. Aboveall, it has helped me become a more patient person and not burst out so easily.8. When the author damaged the door, his parents _______.A. scolded him for what he had doneB. left the door unrepairedC. told him how expensive it wasD. gave him a spanking9. How did the author feel every time he saw the damaged door?A. He felt ashamed of his uncontrolled anger at that time.B. He found that his family members no longer liked him.C. He found it destroyed the happy atmosphere at his home.D. He felt he had to work hard to make up for (弥补) the damage.10. The experience may cause the author _______.A. to hide his anger away from othersB. not to go against his parents’ willC. to have a better control of himselfD. not to make mistakes in the future11. What of the following is the main idea of this passage?A. Adults should ignore their children’s bad behavior.B. Parents shouldn’t educate their children.C. What is the best way to become a more patient person?D. Silent punishment may have a better effect on educating people.DAfter finishing his dinner, Lin Xu opened a WeChat mini-programcalled "Clear Plate" on his phone and took a picture of the empty plates. He was then awarded 157 credit points after the image was uploaded and recognized by artificial intelligence. The credit points can be used to buy gifts, such as books, cellphones and red wine, or to purchase charity meals donated to children in poor rural areas.The "Clear Plate" mini-program has become popular among young Chinese. Similar campaigns like an "empty plate challenge" are alsoon the horizonin many Chinese universities."Technological innovation is a good way to reduce food waste," said Liu Jichen. Founder of the start-up that developed the app. The idea popped up at a dinner in 2017, when Liu found that the restaurant owner would give diners who polished off their food a card and offer small gifts after a certain number of cards had been collected. "Everyone who values food is bound to enjoy a sense of gain at a lower cost," Liu mentioned this case, noting that such an idea could potentially be realized online.He formeda team to work on the project. Yet it was quite a challenge for the AI system to assess whether the uploaded photos showed empty plates. To make the AI system smarter,Liu and his team, assisted by more than 1, 000 others, spent half a year collecting over100,000 samples from canteens and restaurants across the country and analyzed the data. Dozens of enterprises, institutions and restaurants have contacted the start-up to cooperate on the project. Through the digitalized, visualized mini-program, people can clearly see the good results of saving food, which will effectively reduce food waste. "We hope our efforts can start a new trend among the younger generation, encouraging them to develop the habit of thrift(节约)," Liu said.12. What does the underlined phrase "on the horizon" in paragraph 2 mean?A. Likely to decrease.B. Likely to succeed.C. Likely to change.D. Likely to appear.13. What caused Liu Jichen to develop the "Clear Plate" app?A. Food waste afterdinner.B. The idea of the restaurant owner.C. Small gifts sent by his friends.D. Charity meals donated to children.14. What was difficult for the project Liu's team worked on?A. Making the AI system smarter.B. Assessing the uploaded photos.C. Collecting samples from canteens and restaurants.D. Encouraging people to develop the habit of thrift.15. What is the text mainly about?A. AI programs becoming popular.B. AI programs appearing in many Chinese universities.C. AI programs encouraging diners toclear their plates.D. AI programs collecting pictures of clearing diners' plates.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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。

Rising to the challenge is a new paper in The Economic Journal by Giacomo Calzolari, Andrea Ichino, Francesco Manaresi and Viki Nellas, economists at the European University Institute,Bologna University and the Italian central bank. They looked at pharmacies(药房) and specifically at customers who may be particularly easy to rip off: new parents.Using data for 2007 to 2010 covering about a fifth of pharmacies in Italy,the researchers measured the way in which prices of hygiene products for babies changed as the number of babies varied. They took advantage of a peculiar law from the 1960s, according to which regions with at most 7,500 people are allowed just one pharmacy (supposedly to keep the quality of services high). They compared prices in places with populations just below this threshold, and just above.The products studied included some 3,000 varieties of shampoos, bath foams,baby wipes,creams and so on.Many are also used by adults on themselves. Some people, for example, prefer sun﹣cream labeled "for children" because of its high level of protection. When raising prices for these products,even a pharmacist with a monopoly(垄断) must consider the risk that adult users will switch to products that are not aimed at children. But a rise in the number of babies, and hence buyers who are parents, could tip the scales towards price increases. By contrast, the pharmacist should already be charging as much as parents are willing to pay for products without adult users, such as nappies. The scholars found that pharmacists raised prices when there were more new parents﹣﹣﹣﹣but only in regions with a single pharmacy, and not for nappies. In monopoly areas a doubling of the number of babies from one month to the next (not unusual in a small population) coincided with a 5% increase in the price of the basket of baby﹣hygiene products.The study is timely. Italy's government has started to loosen some of the many restrictions that stop competition in the pharmacy sector (though not yet the one that the researchers relied on). But such regulations are plentiful in many other lines of business, and not just in Italy. The consumers who pay the price are often those who find it hardest to travel to shop around﹣﹣﹣﹣for example, people with crying babies on their hands.(1)What's the purpose of the studyA.

The features most commonly used to identify people are faces, voices,finger prints and retinal scans. But their "behavioural biometrics", such as the way they walk, are also giveaways.Researchers have, for several years, used video cameras and computers to analyse people's gaits, and are now quite good at it. But translating such knowledge into a practical identification system can be tricky﹣﹣﹣﹣especially if that system is supposed to be hidden. Cameras are often visible, are hard to set up, require good lighting and may have their view blocked by other people. So a team led by Krikor Ozanyan of the University of Manchester, in England and Patricia Scully of the National University of Ireland, in Galway have been looking for a better way to recognize gait. Their answer: pressure ﹣sensitive mats.In themselves, such mats are nothing new. They have been part of security systems for donkeys' years. But Dr. Ozanyan And Dr. Scully use a complex version that can record the amount of pressure applied in different places as someone walks across it.These measurements form a pattern unique to the walker. Dr. Ozanyan and Dr. Scully therefore turned, as is now common for anything to do with pattern recognition, to an Artificial Intelligence system that uses machine learning to recognize such patterns.It seems to work.In a study published earlier this year the two researchers tested their system on a database of footsteps trodden by 127 different people. They found that its error rate in identifying who was who was a mere %. And Dr. Scully says that even without a database of footsteps to work with the system can determine someone's sex﹣﹣﹣women and men, with wide and narrow pelvises(骨盆) respectively, walk in different ways,﹣﹣﹣﹣ and guess,with reasonable accuracy, a subject's age.A mat﹣based gait﹣recognition system has the advantage that it would work in any lighting conditions﹣﹣﹣﹣even pitch﹣darkness. And though it might fail to identify someone if, say, she was wearing stilettos and had been entered into the database while wearing trainers, it would be very hard to fool it by imitating the gait of an individual who was allowed admission to a particular place.The latest phase of Dr. Ozanyan's and Dr. Scully's project is a redesign of the mat. The old mats contained individual pressure sensors. The new ones contain optical fibres(光纤). Light﹣emitting diodes(二极管) distributed along two neighbouring edges of a mat transmit light into the fibres. Sensors on the opposite edges( and thus the opposite ends of the optical fibres) measure how much of that light is received. Any pressure applied to part of the mat causes a distortion(变形) in the fibres and a consequent change in the amount of light transmitted. Both the location and amount of change can be plotted and analyzed by the machine﹣learning system.Dr. Ozanyan says that the team have built a demonstration fibre﹣opticmat,two meters long and a metre wide,using materials that cost £100($130). They are now talking to companies about commercializing it. One application might be in health care, particularly for the elderly. A fibre ﹣optic mat installed in a nursing home or an old person's own residence could monitor changes in an individual's gait that warn certain illnesses. That would provide early warning of someone being at greater risk of falling over, say,or of their cognition becoming damaged.Gait analysis might also be used ass a security measure in the workplace,monitoring access to restricted areas, such as parts of military bases, server farms or laboratories dealing with harmful materials. In these cases, employees would need to agree to their gaits being scanned, just as they would agree to the scanning of their faces or retinas for optical security systems. Perhaps the most fascinating use of gait﹣recognition mats, though,would be in public places, such as airports. For that to work, the footsteps of those to be recognized would need to have been stored in a database, which would be harder to arrange than the collection of mugshots and fingerprints that existing airport security systems rely on. Some people, however, might volunteer for it. Many aircrew or pre﹣registered frequent flyers would welcome anything that speeded up one of the most tiresome parts of modern travel.(1)Camera﹣based gait recognition fails to come into wide use,because .a. it's not easy to find the camerasb. finger print recognition is still popularc. sometimes the cameras can be coveredd. it's a waste of money to fix the equipmente. good lighting conditions can't be guaranteedf. it's difficult to set up the system.A. acfB. bdeC. cdfD. cef(2)Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 6﹣8A.

It appears that ballet's pulse continues to beat strongly, however,especially with a Tchaikovsky defibrillator attached. So why are some dancecommentators arguing that ballet is dying And do they have a point "Ballet is dead"﹣﹣﹣﹣"Ballet is dying" ﹣﹣﹣all ring tones of Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophical claim: "God is dead." Headline grabbling,certainly. Yet can ballet be defined in such black and white terms Surely it is more abstract, filled with shades of popular grey.①.To start with, how do you define ballet What is ballet today Consider popular modern classics like Twyla Tharp's In the Upper Room, where dancers wear pointy shoes and sneakers, combining contemporary and classical vocabulary together. Or closer to home, there is Graeme Murphy's Swan Lake, which layers elements of Petipa's choreography(编舞)with a contemporary theme and aesthetic. Many contemporary choreographers all embrace classical form and principles, then manipulate(操纵) the rules.②.The line between contemporary dance and ballet is vague. In an interview with The Telegraph (2015), British choreographer Mattew Bourne acknowledges that this "cross﹣fertilisation" between contemporary dance and ballet continues to grow,as evidenced by the rise in new commissions from contemporary choreographers at the Royal Ballet and English National Ballet. Referring to Homans's book, Bourne believes what has changed is that "the dance forms are coming closer together". Not dying, but merging. Reinventing. This has been the case amongst Australasian ballet companies for many years now.③. Homans writes that ballet's decline began after the passing of Ashton and Balanchine. Something ahs changed, certainly. A stylisic transition﹣﹣﹣﹣from neo﹣classical to contemporary ballet﹣﹣﹣﹣has occurred.④. Our art form's evolution has always been with extinction. Prominent dance critic with The New York Times, Alastair Macaulay, says: "ballet has died again and again over the centuries," and yet, "phoenix﹣like, rose again from its ashes". History shows there were periods where ballet hibernated and lacked popularity. This coincided with the art form's changing forums. So here is the irony: what sells best, still, are reproductions of Petipa's classics. A season without a Tchaikovsky score is a financial risk. Andwithout Nutcracker(《桃夹子》), half the ballet companies in North America would not exist. Admittedly, as a dancer, my favourite roles﹣﹣﹣Albrecht, Prince Siegfried and Romeo﹣﹣﹣﹣were from the classical canon; I am a traditionalist at heart (who loves to be challenged by good contemporary ballets). A part of the charm behind classical repertoire, for me, was in reproducing the glories of past greats. Classical ballet's framework supports the modern process of bench ﹣marking.Perhaps Jennifer Homans's thoughts are not completely unfounded. Perhaps ballet is dying for some.Ballet's evolution has been delayed by its audiences. And as Homans suggests in her epilogue, perhaps also by its creatives. Now here is a bold prediction. In line with the Royal Ballet's programming in Brisbane this year﹣﹣﹣﹣of Christopher Wheeldon's The Winter's Tale, and Wayne MacGregor's Woolf Works﹣﹣﹣﹣over the next 20 years, ballet's reliance on Petipa will decrease. Contemporary ballets and merge﹣styled ballets will produce their box﹣office influence ever more.WhyIt is simple: our audiences will be ready for ballet to change again.(1)Why does the writer cite Jennifer Homans's words at the beginning of the passageA.

Concerned第四部分任务型阅读(满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词.注意:请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上.每个空格只填1个单词.31.(10分)Anyone who's ever made room for a big milestone of adult life ﹣﹣﹣﹣a job, a marriage, a move﹣﹣﹣﹣has likely shoved a friendship to the side. After all, there is no contract locking us to the other person, as inmarriage, and there are no blood bonds, as in family. We choose our friends,and our friends choose us. That's a really distinctive attribute of friendships. But modern life can become so busy that people forget to keep choosing each other. That's when friendships fade, and there's reason to believe it's happening more than ever. Loneliness is on the rise, and feeling lonely has been found to increase a person's risk of dying early by 26%﹣﹣﹣﹣and to be even worse for the body than obesity and air pollution. Loneliness damages health in many ways,particularly because it removes the safety net of social support. "When we perceive our world as threatening, that can be associated with an increase in heart rate and blood pressure."The solution is simple: friendship. It helps protect the brain and body from stress, anxiety and depression. "Being around trusted others, in essence,signals safety and security," says Holt﹣Lunstad. A study last year found that friendships are especially beneficial later in life. Having supportive friends in old age is a stronger predictor of well﹣being than family ties ﹣﹣﹣﹣suggesting that the friends you pick may be at least as important as the family you're born into.Easy as the fix may sound, it can be difficult to keep and make friends as an adult. But research suggests that you only need between four and five close pals. If you've ever had a good one, you know hat you're looking for. "The expectations of friends, once you have a mature understanding of friendship,don't really change across the life course," Rawlins says. "People want their close friends to be someone they can talk to and someone they can depend upon."If you're trying to fill a dried﹣up friendship pool, start by looking inward. Think back to how you met some of your very favorite friends. Volunteering on a political campaign or in a favorite spin class Playing in a band "Friendships are always about something," says Rawlins. Common passions help people bond at a personal level,and they bridge people of different ages and life experiences.Whatever you're into, someone else is too. Let your passion guide youtoward people. Volunteer, for example, take a new course or join a committee at your community centers.If you like yoga,start going to classes regularly. Fellow dog lovers tend to gather at dog runs. Using apps and social media﹣﹣﹣﹣like Facebook to find a local book club﹣﹣﹣﹣is also a good way to find easy﹣going folks.Once you meet a potential future friend, then comes the scary part:inviting them to do something. "You do have to put yourself out there," says Janice McCabe, associate professor of sociology at Dartmouth College and a friendship researcher. "There's a chance that the person will say no. But there's also the chance they'll say yes, and something really great could happen."The process takes time, and you may experience false starts. Not everyone will want to put in the effort necessary to be a good friend. It's never too late to start being a better pal. The work you put into friendships﹣﹣﹣﹣both new and old ﹣﹣﹣ will be well worth it for your health and happiness.Outline Supporting detailsProblems●Making friends (1) people of negative feelings,especially benefiting the old.
