Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals’ brains.They found out that animals that lived in a challenging environment were more “perspicacious” —they were better at solving problems and learning new things.1.According to the first paragraph,________.A.the function of our brain is like that of the muscleB.until now it’s impossible to explain the brain’s mysteryC.many people believe one’s intelligence is natur ally determinedD.one’s brain grows stronger as the age increases2.Training muscles is compared to________.A.using the brainB.connecting things in your brainC.lifting weightsD.doing research about the brain3.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The complex st ructure of the brain.B.How changes in the muscles affect the brain.C.The importance of the brain.D.How the brain becomes stronger by learning new things.4.What does the underlined word “perspicacious” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Strong. B.Smart.C.Popular. D.Active.B(2014·贵阳市高三适应性监测二)Much meaning can be conveyed clearly with our eyes,so it is often said that eyes can speak.Do you have such kind of experience?In a bus you may look at a stranger,but not too long.And if he is sensing that he is being stared at,he may feel uncomfortable.It’s the same in daily life.If you are looked at for more than necessary,you will look at yourself up and down,to see if there is anything wrong with you If nothing goes wrong,you will feel angry toward other’s stare at you that way.Eyes do speak,right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive.But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex.If a man glances at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn away his gaze,his intentions are obvious,that is,he wishes to attract her attention,to make her understand that he is admiring her.However,the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time,in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the other is speaking,to tell him that he is attentive.If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking,as if he tries to dominate (支配) you,you will feel embarrassed.A poor liar (说谎者) usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim,since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication.Quite the contrary.In fact,continuous eye contact is confined (局限于) to lovers only,who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time,to show affection that words cannot express.Evidently,eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.5.What does the second paragraph suggest?A.Looking at a stranger continuously is necessary.B.Looking at a stranger continuously is not polite.C.Something happens in our eyes.D.Strangers should avoid eye contact.6.The underlined word “gaze” in the third paragraph probably me ans________. A.attraction B.attentionC.head D.eyes7.Continuous eye contact is proper between________.A.lovers B.strangersC.victims D.liars8.What would be discussed in the following?A.The importance of eye contact.B.Eye contact should be continuous.C.Enjoying yourself in conversation.D.Eye contact in related occasions.Ⅴ.短文改错(2013·陕西省咸阳市四校高三抽样检测)Last Thursday,we had a class meeting to discuss where to go for us spring outing.We came up with several choices such as going the boating,climbing a mountain,and go to an am usement park.Finally,we decide to go mountain climbing.The next day,we set off in the earlier morning.While climbing the mountain,we enjoyed the warm sunshine or a beautiful view.Therefore,when we reached the top,we shocked to see litter here and there,such as bottles and banana peels.Then we started to pick out the litter.Afterwards,we put the rubbish into the nearby recycling bin.We were tired and happy.课时作业(三十七)Ⅰ.语音知识1.D 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.BⅡ.单词拼写1.differ 2.exactly 3.breakthrough 4.accumulated 5.media 6.bothered 7.undertake 8.resistⅢ.单项填空1.解析:考查交际用语。

Unit 2 CloningⅠ.阅读理解A[2020·郑州高三第一次质量预测]My son Sam is 16 and autistic (自闭症的). There's a lot going on in that beautiful and brilliant mind of his, but even on a good day he can be easily at a loss. Throw in some diagnosed anxiety, an inability to read social cues (提示) and an unexpected change to his daily routine, and you have the way to deal with a very public breakdown (精神崩溃).It was Sam's very first day at high school. We'd set up a plan for how he'd get home: I'd pick him up outside the shop near his school at 3:30 p.m. and I believed this was a perfect plan. Unknown to me, very bad weather was on its way and I was unable to warn him to take shelter.With the combination of his dead phone battery and my dead car battery, I was running late and unable to communicate that to him. As a result, he was left alone and extremely frightened. He became very upset outside the shop, exactly where I'd told him to wait.This was when a beautiful older Vietnamese lady not only went to check_on him, but took him inside her shop, calmed him down, got my phone number from him and called me.Five years later he continued to go into her shop every afternoon, bought a drink, had a chat and she sent him home with enough bread and rolls to feed a small nation.Sam will graduate this year, and I'm increasingly feeling the need to drop by the shop to let this wonderful lady know that she has saved Sam, and that she has saved me. I'm not sure if I can communicate all of this, but at least I will get to thank her.There are people I will not get to thank, though — the many kind strangers who have been there for Sam. And believe me, if you're wondering if this world is a complete mess right now, I'm here to say that it is not.So I guess this is a love letter to those of you who have helped a stranger outof the goodness of your heart. Please know you are appreciated, and that your beautiful heart and kindness are appreciated, and perhaps unknowingly, you have made a great difference in someone's life.1.What can we learn about Sam from the first paragraph?A.He is rather slow with his studies.B.He can deal with sudden changes well.C.He has difficulty in dealing with things.D.He tries hard to learn how to read social cues.2.The underlined part “check on〞 in Paragraph 4 probably mea ns “________〞.A.discover B.visitC.recognize D.examine3.What happened to Sam after his first day at high school?A.He could get on well with his classmates.B.He made good friends with the nice lady.C.He brought the lady some food to thank her.D.He became willing to communicate with others.4.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A.To express her thanks to kind people.B.To remind us all to help autistic people.C.To show how difficult life is for autistic people.D.To tell us how to make a difference in others' lives.B[2020·辽宁五校协作体高三上学期联考]While the start of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some elementary school students in Auckland, New Zealand. They became the world's first kids to be “taugh t〞 by a digital teacher. Before you start imagining a humanlike robot walking around the classroom, Will is just an avatar (化身) that appears on the students' desktops, or smartphone screens, when ordered to come.The autonomous animation (动画制作) platform has been modeled after the human brain and nervous system, allowing it to show humanlike behavior. The digital teacher is assigned to teach “Be sustainable with energy〞— a free program for Aucklandelementary schools.Just like the humans it replaced, Will is able to instantly react to the students' responses to the topic. Thanks to a webcam and microphone, the avatar not only responds to questions the kids may have, but also picks up nonverbal cues (暗示). For instance, if a student smiles at Will, he resp onds by smiling back. This twoway interaction not only helps attract the students' attention, but also allows the program's developers to monitor their involvement, and make changes if needed.Nikhil Ravishankar believes that Willlike avatars could be a novel way to catch the attention of the next generation. He says, “I have a lot of hope in this technology as a means to deliver costeffective, rich, educational experience in the future.〞The program, in place since August 2018, has been a great success thus far. Ravishankar says, “What was fascinating to me was the reaction of the children to Will. The way they look at the world is so creative and different, and Will really captures their attention.〞 However, regardless of how popular it becomes, Will is unlikely to replace human educators any time soon.5.What was special for some elementary school students in Auckland?A.A digital teacher taught them.B.They first saw something digital.C.This was the start of a new school year.D.They could get close to smartphone screens.6.What is the benefit of this twoway interaction?A.It can smile back.B.It can use a microphone.C.It can talk any topic for free.D.It can change if necessary.7.What's the author's attitude to Will's replacing human educators soon?A.Optimistic. B.Doubtful.C.Unclear. D.Disapproving.8.What might be the best title for the passage?A.New Hightech Contributes to EducationB.The World's First Digital Teacher Appears in theClassroomC.The World's First Digital Teacher, a Help to StudentsD.New Zealand Will Replace Teachers in the ClassroomⅡ.七选五[2020·惠州市高三第一次调研]How to Cultivate Confidence?When faced with a big challenge where potential failure seems to appear at every corner, maybe you'll hear this advice: Be more confident. __1__ Take the belief that you are precious and capable, also known as selfesteem. Confidence turns thoughts into action. It comes from the genes you are born with, the way people get used to treating you as well as the choices you make. While it isn't possible to completely separate these three factors, the personal choices we make obviously play a major role in confidence development. As a result, by keeping certain practical tips in mind, we do actually have the power to cultivate our own confidence.__2__ If you're looking for a longterm change, consider the way you think about your abilities and talents. Do you think they are fixed at birth, or that they can be developed? These beliefs matter because they can influence how you act in the face of setbacks. If you have a fixed mindset, meaning that your talents are locked in the place, you might give up, assuming you've discovered something you're not good at. But if you have a growth mindset, and think your abilities can improve, a challenge will become an opportunity to learn and grow. Neuroscience (神经科学) supports the latter. The connections in your brain do get stronger and grow with study and practice. __3__Practicing failure is a must. Failure happens. __4__ J.K. Rowling was rejected by twelve different publishers before one picked up HarryPotter. The Wright brothers built on history's failing attempts at flight before designing a successful airplane. Studies show that those who fail regularly and keep trying anyway are better equipped to respond to challenges in constructive ways. __5__ So, think of a challenge you want to take on, realize it's not going to be easy, accept that you'll make mistakes, and be kind to yourself when you do. You'll feel the excitement, knowing that whatever the result, you'll have gained greater knowledge and understanding.A.But what is confidence?B.So can confidence be easily cultivated?C.Everyone is possible to encounter failure.D Being a talented person is quite necessary.E.They learn to try different strategies and persevere.F.Believing in your abilities to improve is the first step.G.It also turns out that people with a growth mindset are better at dealing with challenges.Ⅲ.语法填空[2020·唐山质量检测]None of the major traditional museums seemed to see it as a threat when the Museum of Ice Cream opened in New York in 2016.

well.Then,suddenly,the interviewer asks an unexpected question,“Which is more important,law or love?”Job applicants in the West increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this.And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.Employers want people skilled,enthusiastic and devoted.So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are.In response,employers are increasingly using questions which try and show the applicant's true personality.The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called the Keirsey Personality Sorter.It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems,rather than what they know.This is often called an aptitude test(能力倾向测验).According to Mark Baldwin many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult.When a Chinese person fills out an aptitude test he or she will think there is a right answer and they may fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.This is sometimes called the prisoner's dilemma.Applicants are trying to actcleverly in their own interest.But they fail because they don't understand what the interviewer is looking for.Remember that in an aptitude test,the correct answer is always the honest answer.16.The writer wrote the passage to ________.A.give a piece of advice for job intervieweesB.tell you how to meet a job interviewerC.describe the aptitude testD.advice you how to find a job17.Why do the interviewers ask such questions?A.They want to discover what the interviewees know.B.They are curious about the answers.C.They try to discover the ability of the interviewees' solving problems.D.They just ask questions without thinking much.18.According to the writer,in an aptitude test,Chinese job applicants should ________.A.not tell the truthB.learn to tell what they really thinkC.be more enthusiasticD.try to find out what the examiner really wants to know19.From the passage we know that ________.A.job applicants are always asked such questionsB.more Chinese applicants fail to find a jobC.applicants should not act as reasonably as a prisonerD.the aptitude test is becoming popular worldwideBImagine it's 2035.You have a good job,a big family and you're about 40 years old.Welcome to your future life.Getting ready for work,you pause in front of the mirror.“Turn red,” you say.Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red.Tiny preprogrammed electronics are rearranged in your shirt to change its color.Looking into the mirror,you find it hard to believe that you are 40.You look much younger.With amazing advances in medicine,people in your generation may live to be 150 years old.You're not even middleaged.As you go into the kitchen and prepare

well.Then,suddenly,the interviewer asks an unexpected question,“Which is more important,law or love?”Job applicants in the West increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this.And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.Employers want people skilled,enthusiastic and devoted.So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are.In response,employers are increasingly using questions which try and show the applicant's true personality.The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called the Keirsey Personality Sorter.It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems,rather than what they know.This is often called an aptitude test(能力倾向测验).According to Mark Baldwin many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult.When a Chinese person fills out an aptitude test he or she will think there is a right answer and they may fail because they try to guess what theexaminer wants to see.This is sometimes called the prisoner's dilemma.Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest.But they fail because they don't understand what the interviewer is looking for.Remember that in an aptitude test,the correct answer is always the honest answer.16.The writer wrote the passage to ________.A.give a piece of advice for job intervieweesB.tell you how to meet a job interviewerC.describe the aptitude testD.advice you how to find a job17.Why do the interviewers ask such questions?A.They want to discover what the interviewees know.B.They are curious about the answers.C.They try to discover the ability of the interviewees' solving problems.D.They just ask questions without thinking much.18.According to the writer,in an aptitude test,Chinese job applicants should ________.A.not tell the truthB.learn to tell what they really thinkC.be more enthusiasticD.try to find out what the examiner really wants to know19.From the passage we know that ________.A.job applicants are always asked such questionsB.more Chinese applicants fail to find a jobC.applicants should not act as reasonably as a prisonerD.the aptitude test is becoming popular worldwideBImagine it's 2035.You have a good job,a big family and you're about 40 years old.Welcome to your future life.Getting ready for work,you pause in front of the mirror.“Turn red,” you say.Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red.Tiny preprogrammed electronics are rearranged in your shirt to change its color.Looking into the mirror,you find it hard to believe that you are 40.You look much younger.With amazing advances in medicine,people in your generation may live to be 150 years old.You're not even middleaged.As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal(谷类食物) into a bowl,you hear: “To lose weight,you shouldn't eat that,” from your shoes.They read the tiny electronic code on the cereal box to find out the nutrition

Unit 2 Cloning课时作业Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2024·潍坊市高三一模)Blind Dates at Alchemy in the DarkSoup on my nose,a nearly spilt glass of wine and chocolate down my white blouse,as blind dates suggest,this was a really messy one.I had never made so much noise with plates and glasses,nor had I dined with a never-before-met companion.This blind date was quite different: we could see nothing.“Put your left hand on my shoulder,and then we'll take small steps forward,” said Michael,the visually impaired waiter,in an East London accent.We three felt our way carefully bumping past heavy curtains before being arranged at the dining table,where we would eat and drink three completely secret and unseen courses.Welcome to Alchemy in the Dark,Hong Kong's first restaurant in total darkness.Upon arrival,diners briefly tell the chef about their allergies(过敏性反应),lock away their mobile phones and enter the windowless restaurant,which can seat 25 customers.When the meal is over,the contents of the delicious menu are shown — often to the diners' surprise.“This is definitely duck,” my companion said,while eating chicken.“This soup,” I declared,“is carrot and coriander.” Even the too-close smell did not reveal the real tomato and cumin flavors.Dining in the dark changes everything: the sense of smell is heightened,manners go out of the window — using your hands to feel around the plates becomes normal — and there is a strange thrill in being able to ignore your facial expressions.Best of all?You don't have to spend hours beforehand wondering what to wear.Alchemy in the Dark is at 16 Arbuthnot Road,Central,tel: 6821 2801 and is open Monday to Saturday,from 7 pm to 11 pm.Reservations are required.A three-course meal with wine pairing costs HK$700 per person.5% of all profits go to The Hong Kong Society for the Blind.【语篇解读】本文为一篇记叙文。

Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.Northern European are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain.This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason: sun!The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries. Italy's 30,000 hotels are booked solid every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks and roadsides. Spain's long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourists visit yearly, or_one_tourist_for_every_person_living_in_Spain.But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it's getting worse. The French can't figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St Tropez. And in many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution.None of this, however, is spoiling anyone's fun. The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists. Obviously, they don't go there for clean water and solitude. They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don't even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it's still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.11. The writer seems to imply that Europeans travel mostly for the reason that________.A.they want to see historic remains or religious spotsB.they are interested in different cultural traditions and social customsC.they would like to take pictures in front of famous sitesD.they wish to escape from the cold, dark and rainy days back at home12. In Paragraph 2,cities like London,Copenhagen,and Amsterdam are mentioned________.A.to show that they are not good cities in terms of geography and climateB.to tell us how wealthy their residents areC.to suggest that these cities lack places of historic interest and scenic beautyD.to prove that they have got more tourism than they can handle13. According to the passage, which of the following countries attracts more tourists than the others?A.Italy. B.Spain.C.Greece. D.France.14. The underlined part in Paragraph 3 means ________.A.all the 37 million people living in Spain are touristsB.every year almost as many tourists visit Spain as there are people living in that countryC.every person living in Spain has to take care of a touristD.every Spanish is visited by a tourist every year15.According to the passage, which of the following factors might spoil the tourists' fun at Mediterranean resorts and beaches?A.Polluted water. B.Crowded buses.C.Traffic jams. D.Rainy weather.BIf you were walking around a supermarket and saw a woman with a shaved head, a ring through her nose, a tattoo design on her arm and she has a small child in her shopping trolley,_what would your opinion be? Do you think this kind of body decoration is attractive or ugly? Different people have different ideas. The following are some examples of body decoration from around the world.In many parts of Africa, it is thought that an attractive girl should have really shiny skin.On Bali, a little island in Indonesia, they believe that a beautiful woman or handsome man must have perfectly straight, flat teeth. The Balinese believe that teeth with pointed edges make you look like an ugly wild animal. So when a girl or boy becomes a teenager, he or she is taken to a special person in their village who will file off teeth points to make them smooth and flat. There is no anesthetic (麻药) and this tooth filing is really painful. It is a kind of test. If you can stand it without screaming or crying too much, then you are thought ready to become an adult.In Myanmar, there is a small group of people who are called the “Papaung”. They believe that a woman can only be really beautiful if she has a long neck. I mean a very long neck. Now you might think that you are either born with a long or short neck and that there's nothing whatever you can do about it. But you would be wrong! At around the age of 5, a Papaung girl has heavy metal rings fitted around her neck, tightly between the chin and shoulders. Each year more rings are added and very, very slowly their weight pushes the shoulders down, in this way making the neck look longer. A Papaung woman will wear her neck rings all her life, never once taking them off.So now I'm sure you will all agree that different people have different ideas about what is beautiful.16.What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 1?A.Women's design. B.Beautiful body decoration.C.Attractive decoration. D.Body decoration.17.What does the underlined word “trolley”mean?A.Handbag. B.Luggage.C.Shopping cart. D.Basket.18.On Bali, it is believed that ________.A.a person with sharp teeth looks uglyB.a person with straight, flat teeth looks uglyC.a teenager's teeth points must be filed off with anestheticD.no one will scream or cry when having his/her teeth points filed off19.Which of the following is NOT true?A.Most African people think that a girl with shiny skin is beautiful.B.Many people think that a woman with a ring through nose is neither attractive nor ugly.C.It is thought that a beautiful woman should have straight, flat teeth on Bali.D.Some people think it beautiful that a woman has a long neck in Myanmar.20.What is the best title of the passage?A.Who is a beautiful woman?B.What is beautiful?C.Different ideas about decorationD.Body decorationⅢ.读写任务阅读下面的短文,然后依照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Unit 2 Cloning———————————◄课时跟踪·一练而就►———————————Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2022届湖南省长郡中学高三开学考试)Many people trying to sell homes find that an increase in home prices has turned the market in their favor. But sellers can still get the short end of the deal if they aren't careful. Here are a few tips for you:Don't test your luck. Of course you think anyone who moves into your lovely home should be willing to pay top dollars, especially if you've recently invested in some improvements. But listing a home at a price that's too high above the market price could turn away some buyers.Buyers noticing that the home still hasn't sold may begin to assume there's something wrong with the house and use that as a reasonable excuse for offering a lower price. And if a home hasn't received any offers after two weeks, it might be time to reset the price.A price that's too low can bring about an undesired outcome. Listing your home at or slightly below the market price can have the effect of drawing in a large group of buyers and increase the chances that a home will receive multiple offers. But setting the price too low comes with several risks. One possibility is that buyers will get skeptical of the home that is listed for $15,000 to $20,000 less than similar homes in the area, especially if it's not properly marketed. Once again, people might assume there is something wrong with the home and may not bother to look at it.Spy on the competition. Going to other people's open houses can give you a better sense of how your home compares to others on the market. Check out the decoration in their kitchens, the size of their backyards and use the information to figure out where your home should fit in the range of the price. But don't set your pricing just on what you see elsewhere.【语篇解读】本文讲述了把房子卖出好价钱的考前须知。

Unit 2 CloningⅠ.阅读理解A(2021·潍坊4月模拟)Every evening Sylvie left her grandmother's house at 530 to bring their cow home. The old animal spent her days out in the open country eating sweet grass. When the cow heard Sylvie's voice calling her, she would hide among the bushes, unwilling to go home.This evening it had taken Sylvie longer than usual to find her cow. The child hurried the cow through the dark forest, following a narrow path that led to her grandmother's home.“Hello, little girl,” a young man called out cheerfully. “I've been hunting for birds, but I've lost my way.” The young man explained he was a scientist, who searched for birds. “Do you put them in a cage?” Sylvie asked. “No,” he answered, “I shoot them and deal with them with special chemicals to preserve them.”“I saw a white heron (苍鹭) not far from here two days ago. It's a very rare bird. Have you seen it, too?” he asked Sylvie. Sylvie's heart began to beat fast. She knew that strange white bird! The young man was staring at Sylvie. “I would give $10 to the person who showed me where the white heron is.”Sylvie had a plan that she would get the $ 10 for her grandmother and make the young man happy. Her plan was to climb to the top of a tall pine tree to see where the white heron had hidden its nest.The pine tree seemed to grow taller, the higher that Sylvie climbed. Suddenly a bird with broad white wings flew past Sylvie and landed on a pine branch below her. The white heron sat on its nest in a nearby tree. Sylvie gave a long sigh. She knew the wild bird's secret now. Slowly she began her dangerous trip down the ancient pine tree.About an hour later Sylvie returned. Both her grandmother and the young man stood up as she came into the kitchen. The splendid moment to speak about her secret had come. But Sylvie was silent. She could not tell the heron's secret and give its life away.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了小女孩Sylvie最终因为她的仁慈而没有把白苍鹭的栖息地告知年轻的科学家的故事。

Some parents can understand that wish, but it must first be recognized that the copy would be a new baby and not the lost child. Here lies the_difficulty,_for the sad parents are seeking not a new baby but a return of the dead one. Since the original would be fondly remembered as having particular talents and interests, would not the parents expect the copy to be the same? It is possible, however, that the copy would develop quite differently. Is it fair to the new child to be placed in a family with such unnatural expectations?Copying is also suggested as a means by which parents can have the child of their dreams. Couples might choose to have a copy of a film star, baseball player or scientist, depending on their interests. But because personality is only partly the result of genetic inheritance, conflicts would be sure to arise if the cloned child failed to develop the same interests as the original. What if the copy of Einstein shows no interest in science? Or the baseball playerturns to acting? Success_also_depends_on_fortune. What if the child does not live up to the hopes and dreams of their parents simply because of bad luck?Every child should be wanted for itself, as a person. In making a copy of oneself or some famous person, a parent is purposely specifying the way he or she wishes that child to develop. In recent years, particularly in the U.S., much importance has been placed on the right of individuals to reproduce in ways that they wish.

is more important,law or love?”Job applicants in the West increasingly find themselves asked strange q uestions like this.And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.Employers want people skilled,enthusiastic and devoted.So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are.In response,employers are increasingly using questions which try and show the applicant's true personality.The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called the Keirsey Personality Sorter.It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems,rather than what they know.This is often called an aptitude test(能力倾向测验).According to Mark Baldwin many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult.When a Chinese person fills out an aptitude test he or she will think there is a right answer and they may fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.This is sometimes called the prisoner's dilemma.Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest.But they fail because they don't understand what the interviewer is looking for.Remember that in an aptitude test,the correct answer is always the honest answer.16.The writer wrote the passage to ________.A.give a piece of advice for job intervieweesB.tell you how to meet a job interviewerC.describe the aptitude testD.advice you how to find a job17.Why do the interviewers ask such questions?A.They want to discover what the interviewees know.B.They are curious about the answers.C.They try to discover the ability of the interviewees' solving problems.D.They just ask questions without thinking much.18.According to the writer,in an aptitude test,Chinese job applicants should ________.A.not tell the truthB.learn to tell what they really thinkC.be more enthusiasticD.try to find ou t what the examiner really wants to know19.From the passage we know that ________.A.job applicants are always asked such questionsB.more Chinese applicants fail to find a jobC.applicants should not act as reasonably as a prisonerD.the aptitude test is becoming popular worldwideBImagine it's 2035.You have a good job,a big family and you're about 40 years old.Welcome to your future life.Getting ready for work,you pause in front of the mirror.“Tur n red,” you say.Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red.Tiny preprogrammed electronics are rearranged in your shirt to change its color.Looking into the mirror,you find it hard to believe that you are 40.You look much younger.With amazing advances in medicine,people in your generation may live to be 150 years old.You're not even middleaged.As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal(谷类食物) into a bowl,you hear: “To lose weight,you shouldn't eat that,” from your shoes.They read the tiny electronic code on the cereal box to find out the nutrition detai ls.You decide to listen to your shoes.“Kitchen,what can I have for breakfast?” A list of possible foods appear on the counter as kitchen checks its food supplies.“Ready for your trip to space.” You ask your son and daughter.Before the 21stcentury only specially trained astronaut s went into space—and very few of them.Today anyone can go to space for day trips or longer vacation.Your best friend even works in space.Handing your children three strawberries each,you add,“The doctor said you need these for space travel.” Thanks to medical advice,vaccination shots(疫苗注射) are a thing of the past.Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines.With the berries in their mouths,the kids head for the front door.It's time for you to go to work.Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors.“My office.Autopilot.” You command. Your car drives itself down the road and moves smoothly into traffic on the highway.You sit back and unroll your enew spaper.The latest news downloads and fills the viewer.Looking through the pages,you watch the news as video films rather than read it.20.What changes the color of your shirt?A.The mirror.B.The shirt itself.C.The counter.D.The medicine.21.How do the shoes know that you shouldn't eat breakfast cereal?A.By pouring breakfast cereal into a bowl.B.By listening to the doctor's advice.C.By testing the food supplies in the kitchen.D.By checking the nutrition details of the food.22.How is the text organized?A.In order of time.B.In order of character.C.In order of preference.D.In order of importance.Ⅲ.短文填词Mr Smith offers us some advice on how to write a good composition, which 23.i________ the following steps.
