Lately, I was deeply touched with two movies about faithful dogs：A Dog's Purpose an d A Dog's Way Home. A dog's life cycled and cycled only to meet his first owner while the other covered 400 miles of toil and hunger all the way back to her home. I had a faithful dog too when I was a little girl, but it was a different story.When my dad first took him home in a cardboard box, he was so quiet that I even doubted whether there was really a dog in it. When I peeped through two small holes on the side, I just saw a patch of grey fur. My dad assured me that it was just a small dog before I dared to open the box. There he was! What a lovely grey dog! He was slim and looked smart. I was on my knees as I cheerfully observed him. However, he tried to avoid eye contact with me, apparently a little scared with everything strange around.I wanted to pet his head but he only turned his head away.When he became familiar with me, I called him Billy and he was really delighted, zagging his tail. Every time I left for school, he saw me off. When I came back, he ways waited on my way home and greeted me with his licks and brushed his head against legs. When Billy was in the kitchen with my father, lying on a small heap of firewood side the furnace （灶）,he could always know which piece of firewood my dad would pick and raised his paw in time. It always surprised me how intelligent and considerate Billy I imagined him turning into a small boy carrying my schoolbag for me and talking my dad. With Billy brightening every day of my childhood, I was more than happy.Paragraph 1：But one day, Billy was seriouslyill..Paragraph 2：A few years later, I went to a dog's shelter to try myluck. ... .. .. 第二节读后续写（范文略）一、评分原则1.本题总分为25分，按七个档次进行评分。

He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn ’t take my eyesoff the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note — “Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery ” — and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically （魔术般的）appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted in on the back porch （门廊）. Every so often my son ’s friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.1. Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer to __________. A. show his magical power B. pay for the delivery C. satisfy his curiosity D. please his mother2. What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy ’s house? A. He wanted to have tea there. B. He was a respectable person. C. He was treated as a family member. D. He was fully trusted by the family member.3. Why does home milk delivery no longer exist? A. nobody wants to be a milkman now. B. It has been driven out of the market. C. It ’s service is getting worse. D. It is forbidden by law.4. Why did the author bring back home an old milk box? A. He missed the good old days. B. He wanted to tell interesting stories. C. He needed it for his milk bottles. D. He planted flowers in it. Part 1单词拼写（周一、周二完成）1.

One way in which adults can develop their interest in a new subject is to search the Internet. A potentially much richer way is to wander through a learning environment, such as a science museum, _____31 _____out in a systematic way to introduce visitors to particular subjects. With the help of audiovisual aids, computer-_____32_____ instruction and other devices, a museum can bring a subject alive in ways that compare _____33_____ with a television programme, or a book. The kind of help that museums can give to adults can equally well be given to children, and to teachers whose pupils have come to the museum for specific _____34_____ .At a time when the demand for public accountability has never been greater, it is worth remembering that many museums receive substantial grants towards what is supposed to be stimulating educational _____35_____ for the general public.Museums accepting these grants, yet offering little more than the_____ 36_____ public lecture, or very minimal help to schoolteacher arriving at the museum with their pupils, therefore risk having such financial support severely cut back, or even _____37_____.Why is this done? The idea is that museums should not simply be aiming to be popular and entertaining, they should also be truly _____38_____ learning environments. Given that this is their aim, they should not just spread facts and theories. They should show the visitor exactly what to do with the information provided. Isolated pieces of information, _____39_____ as they may be. do not encourage museum visitors to use their intelligence. For example, if told that some fleas can jump 130 times their own height, visitors simply have no idea of how to apply this _____40_____ unless they are clearly pointed in the right direction.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.At a time when scientists know more than they ever have before about the inner lives of animals and when concerns about animal rights become large—many experts think that zoos need a major change if they're going to last.To some leaders in the field, the Philadelphia Zoo is the best model out there, but on the other side of the country; a _____41_____ vision of the future is playing out. At Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo, the elephant exhibit, where countless children have watched elephants play, now sits _____42_____ . The zoo, long _____43_____ as a world leader in innovative design, built a $3 million state-of-the-art facility for the species in the 1980s. But in recent years, animal-rights advocates had criticized the exhibit as inhumane for being too small and not _____44_____ the elephants' natural living area. Under pressure from activists following the death of an elephant in 2014, and thanks to new guidelines from the nation's main zoo organization, Woodland Park officials decided to _____45_____ one of its most popular exhibits and place the elephants elsewhere.Nearly two centuries after the first modern zoo opened in London's Regent's Park, the very concept of a place where families can visit and observe animals is being _____46_____ like never before. Across the US and around the world, zoos are finding that balancing the demands of entertainment, education and conservation is increasingly _____47_____. Ethical(伦理的）concerns have been coupled with _____48_____ fears—both for people and for animals—following an incident in May when officials at the Cincinnati Zoo shot and killed a 17-year-old gorilla named Haram be to protect a child who'd fallen into the exhibit. More _____49_____, there's a greater sensitivity to the environmental implications of zoos.Ask a dozen zoo directors why these places should exist today and you'll get a different answer every time. Education, conservation and science all _____50_____. But the _____51_____ answer -cultivating sympathy for animals—is becoming harder to do while providing humane care to these animals.Study after study has shown that many animal species are far smarter and more _____52_____ than previously understood, giving new insights into how they may suffer from anxiety and depression when they are removed from _____53_____. That has forced a difficult existential question: If we acknowledge that creatures suffer when they're trapped, should they be kept in zoos? Not even those who have _____54_____ the cause for more humane exhibits have an answer. "Even the best zoos today are based on captivity and coercion(囚禁与胁迫)”，says Jon Coe, the legendary zoo designer "To me. that's the _____55_____ fault.”41.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)A 27-year-old graphic designer from Oxfordshire in England completed a record-breaking journey across Australia yesterday. It was a 5,800 kilometre journey—and he travelled the whole distance on a skateboard. David Cornthwaite, who started skateboarding less than two years ago, decided on his journey after waking up one morning and realising he hated his job. 'I thought the only thing keeping me going is the skate to and from work. I was looking for something new/ he said. "I saw a Lonely Planet guide to Australia. There was a map on the back. Perth was on one side and Brisbane on the other and I thought, 'that'll do”.He decided to prepare by skateboarding from John O'Groats to Lands End: the two points further apart on the British mainland. That 1,442 kilometre journey, which he finished in June, took just over a month, during which an infected blister (水泡)swelled to the 'size of a tennis ball’. Crossing Australia on a skateboard brough unique challenges. The wind caused by huge road trains, the lorries that thunder across the Outback, was so powerful that he was sometimes blown off his board. Multiple blisters and aching ankles, toes and feet, have kept him in almost constant pain for the last six weeks. ,I feel like an old man. I'm not sure that anyone has ever had this many blisters/ he said. Temperatures of 40cC and above mean that he has used more than a dozen tubes of factor 30 sunscreen. 'There have been moments where I thought "this is ridiculous. I have to rest”，but I never considered giving up.’Skating an average of 50 kilometres a day and hitting speeds of up to 50kph on downhill runs, he left Perth. Western Australia, and skated across the fearsome Nullarbor Plain into South Australia. After reaching Adelaide he made his way to Melbourne and from there to Sydney A support team of seven people trailed from all the way in a four-wheel drive vehicle, which included camping equipment for night shops. The journey has smashed the previous record for a long-distance skateboard, set by an American, Jack Smith, who covered 4,800 kilometres across the US in 2003. David Comthwaite was less than three kilometres from the end of his epic journey when he hit a hole and was thrown off his skateboard, suffering cuts and bruises to his shoulders, knees, hips and elbows. ‘I was only going to 40km at the time, so although it wasn't pretty; it could have been a lot worse,’ he said.56. Why did David Comthwaite decide to skateboard across Australia?A. He wanted to break a world record.B. He was an experienced skateboarderC. He wanted to try something different.D. He was given a guidebook about Australia.51. What made David fall of his skateboard several times in Australia?A. The injuries on his feet.B. The thunderstorms in the Outback.C. The trains that race across the Outback.D. The wind created by huge lorries going past.58. Which of the following statements is true of David while he was on the journey?A. He slept in a tent during the journey.B. He skated at an average speed of 50 kph.C. He thought of giving up the journey halfway.D. He was sunburned due to the misuse of sunscreen.(B)Often enough the craft worker's place of employment in ancient Greece was set in rural isolation. Potter, for instance, found it convenient to locate their workshops near their source of clay, regardless of its relation to the center of settlement. At Corinth and Athens, however, two of the best-known potters' quarters were situated on the cities’ outskirts, and potters and makers of terra-cotta figurines (陶制俑)were also established well within the city of Athens itself Athenian black-figure and red-figure decoration, which emphasized human figures rather than animal images, was adopted between 630 and 530 B.C.: its distinctive color was the result of the skillful adjustments of the kiln’s (窑) temperature during an extended three-stage period. Whether it was the potters or the vase-painters who initiated changes in firing is unclear; the functions of making and decorating were usually divided between them, but neither group can have been so specialized that they did not share in the concerns of the other.The broad use of terra-cotta was such that workers in clay could generally afford to limit . themselves to either decorated ware and housewares like cooking pots and storage jars or building materials. Some sixth-and fifth-century B.C. Athenian pottery establishments are known to have concentrated on a limited range of fine ware, but a rural pottery establishment on the island of Thasos produced many types of pottery and roof tiles too, presumably to meet local demand. Molds were used to create particular effects for some products or to facilitate mass production. There were also a number of poor-quality figurines and painted pots produced in quantity by easy, inexpensive means, as numerous featureless statuettes and unattractive cases testify.60. The passage mainly discusses ancient Greek pottery and its__________.A. unusual materialsB. production techniquesC. similarity to other craftsD. resemblance to earlier pottery61 . Which of the following advantage did terra-cotta have?A. It had a lasting shine on the surface.B. It could be used for many purposes.C. It did not break during the firing process.D. It was less expensive than other available materials.62. Which of the following statements is true of ancient Greek potters and vase painters?A. They seldom produced inferior ware.B. They stuck to their way of producing pieces.C. It is almost impossible to draw a clear line between them.D. It is hard to explain why they didn't make any human images’(C)How does one protect elephants from ivory poachers (象牙偷猎者)in an African reserve the size of a small country? This task typically falls to park rangers who may spend weeks patrolling the bush on foot sometimes lacking basic devices such as radios, tents or even socks. They are largely losing to poachers.To stop the losses, conservationists are increasingly turning to technology. The latest tools include real-time tracking collars, developed by the Kenya-based nonprofit Save the Elephants and currently being used on more than 325 animals in 10 countries--- The organization's researchers wrote algorithms (算法)that use signals from the collars to automatically detect when an animal stops moving (indicating it may be dead), slows down (suggesting it may be injured) or heads toward a danger zone, such as an area known for poaching. Unlike traditional tracking collars, many of which send geographical coordinates infrequently or store them onboard for later retrieval, these devices' real-time feeds enable rangers to react quickly. In several cases, they have led to arrests.The amount of data produced by the new collars quickly became overwhelming, however. So Save the Elephants partnered with Vulcan- a company created by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen—which engineered an open-source tracking application for iOS and the Web called the Domain Awareness System. The DAS app sends alerts when a potential problem arises—if field sensors pick up on human intruders, for example. It also integrates a wealth of other information, including the positions of nearby rangers, vehicles and aircraft, as well as detected gunshots, camera trap feeds, arrest and crime-scene records, weather, and more.Some of the technologies used in the collars—GPS, onboard data storage, phone or satellite receivers—are found in everyday devices, including smartphones. Yet in this case these tools are being applied in an exceptional way, according to Jake Wall, geospatial science adviser for Save the Elephants. It is the first time all the data that DAS uses have been presented in one neat feed and map, he says.An early version of the program is being tested at four sites in Africa, with a 10-site expansion planned for September. At Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya, DAS is already seen as a game changer after its launch less than a year ago, says Batian Craig, director of 51 Degrees, a private company that oversees security operations at Lewa.63. The latest tracking collars are different from traditional ones in that __________.A. they can send signals immediatelyB. they withdraw information at any timeC. they can store more information onboardD. they send geographical coordinates infrequently64. Why did Save the Elephants partner with Vulcan?A. It has met with financial problems.B. It hopes to make a big profit in the future.C. It doesn't know how to advance its collar.D. It can't handle the collected data very well.65. What does Batian Craig say about DAS?A. It will make a big difference.B. It was launched in September.C. It will have a new version soon.D. It needs to be tested at more sites.66. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. How Elephants LiveB. Find My ElephantC. Elephant-Friendly AreasD. Elephants VS PoachersSection CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Ancient China's Terracotta Army （兵马俑）One of the greatest archaeological（考古的）finds of all time is the Terracotta Army of ancient China.

After becoming emperor of the state of Qin at the age of 13. he conquered six other states over the next 25 years, and became the first emperor of a united China.In Qin's time, the ancient Chinese believed that their "afterlife" was very similar to the life on earth. Consequently, when they died and were buried, objects which would be useful to them in the next life were buried with them. __________ 68__________ In addition, the emperor ordered an army to be built so that his palace would be protected.__________69__________ In ancient China, however, they used a completely different method.A huge production line was established to make the tens of thousands of individual human and animal statues which Emperor Qin demanded. All the different pails of the body such as legs, arms, and heads were made separately and then assembled. The same process was also used for other pieces such as ears, beards, and armour. When the whole figure was completed, it was baked in an oven.The terracotta figures are life-like and life-sized. Each one has a different facial expression and hairstyle, as well as uniforms which indicate their job and rank. Among the figures there are ordinary soldiers, archers, and officers, together with horses. They were discovered arranged in military formation ready to protect the emperor in the afterlife.In 1987, the tomb and army of Emperor Qin were declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO. __________70__________ The Terracotta Army clearly deserves this honour, as nearly two million people from all over the world visit it each year.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.Common Characteristics of FolktalesMost of us know some very old folktales. People shared these stories orally for years before writing them down. Since people told stories instead of writing them, the stories changed in between places and with each storyteller. Each new storyteller made changes to the stories based on his own traditions and culture. For example, many cultures have stories like the raven tale about how people got light. In these tales, though, the main character is another type of animal.Next the characters in folktales are similar They are usually ordinary characters who do extraordinary things. They usually have only one or two strong characteristics. For instance, thechief in the Raven story is selfish and not very smart. But Raven is very generous—he wants to help people. And he's very clever as he finds a way to get the light . In addition, often the characters in folktales are not people but animals with human qualities. They talk, make plans, and have strong emotions. Small animals such as the popular spider and turtle play this role in West African stories. In summary, the characters of folktales are simple but often clever in achieving their goals. Finally, the plot, or what happens in the folktale, is usually exciting. Most folktales begin with an expression like “a long time ago" and then move very quickly into the story, which starts with a problem. For instance, a strong, bad character often gives a weaker character a task and promises something if he completes the task. The weaker character often uses clever tricks, special skills, or magic to complete the task. In the end of a folktale, the good characters usually win and the bad characters lose. In conclusion, the plot of a folktale is interesting.So, in summary, we know that the tradition of folktales is very old. They are told all over the world, but they share several of the same features, as said above.V. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72.专家认为，野火突然増多有好几个原因。

Its huge canvas（画布）encompasses（包含）not just Napoleon's wars against the Russian and Austro-Hungarian empires from 1805 to 1812，but a cast whose actions and emotions span the breath of human consciousness.As a literary critic has noted,Tolstoy is the supreme novelist ofhuman conflicts.His epic（史诗）is a（n）（5）______ examination of how people respond to the pressure of both wars and ordinary life.So large is Tolstoy's world,Ms.Li reckoned,that there could be no better companion for people （6）______ in isolation.She thought of virtual book club to sustain readersthrough the lockdown.Participants around the globe would plough through this booktogether and share their thoughts on social media.It would be an anchor in （7）______ times.To their amazement,when it began in mid-March 3，000 people on six continents signed up.Other book clubs have（8）______ up to discuss great literature during the pandemic.But Tolstoy's novel reflects the atmosphere of life in quarantine better.Its（9）______structure,shifting between battlefields and the salons of Russian high society,mirrors the disorienting split in readers' own attention - between their own personal,stilled states and the calamity（灾祸）（10）______ outside.(2021·上海市市辖区·月考试卷)When I re-entered the full-time workforce a few years ago after a decade of lonely self-employment,there was one thing I was looking forward to the most：the opportunity to have work friends once again.It wasn't until I entered the corporate world that I realized,for me at least,being friends with colleagues didn't emerge as a（n）（1）______ at all.This is surprising when you consider the prevailing emphasis by scholars and trainers and managers on the importance of cultivating close （2）______ relationships at work.So much research has explored the way in which collegial（同事的）ties can help overcome a range of workplace issues （3）______ productivity and the quality of work output such as team-based conflict,jealousy,undermining anger,and more.Perhaps my expectations of lunches,water-cooler gossip and caring,deep-and-meaningful conversations were a（4）______ of the last time I was in that kind of office environment.Whereas now,as I near the end of my fourth decade,I realize work can be fully functional and entirely fulfilling without （5）______ to be best mates with the people sitting next to you.In an academic analysis just published in the profoundly-respected Journal of Management,researchers have looked at the concept of "indifferent relationships," a simple term that summarizes the fact that relationships at work can （6）______ benon-interpersonal,inconsequential,unimportant and even,dare I say it,disposable or substitutable.Indifferent relationships are neither positive nor negative.The limited research conducted thus far indicates they're especially（7）______ among those who value independence over cooperation,and harmony over confrontation.Indifference is also the（8）______ option among those who are socially lazy.Maintaining relationships over the long term takes effort,which,for some of us,is much too （9）______ .As noted above,indifferent relationships may not always be the most（10）______ approach in resolving some of the issues that pop up at work.But there are nevertheless several apparently proven benefits.One of those is（11）______ .Less time chatting and socializing means more time working and churning（产出）.The other is（12）______ .As human beings,we're programmed to compare ourselves to each other in what is an anxiety - causing phenomenon.Apparently,we look down on acquaintances （泛泛之交）more so than friends.Since the former is very common among those （13）______ to indifferent relationships,their predominance can promote individuals' sense ofself-worth.Ego aside,a third advantage is that the emotional（14）______ of indifferent relationships hasbeen found to enhance critical evaluation,to strengthen one's focus on task resolution,and to gain greater access to valuable information.None of that might be as（15）______ as after-work socializing but,hey,I'll take it anyway.3.

The author came to the valley to fish as well as to make peace with his worried mind.B. The deafening sound of the waterfall made the author and his dog quite scared.C. The author's parents advised him to discover nature in the depths of the valley.D. The valley environment is said to have a healing power upon one's heart.19.Which of the following is the best word to fill in the blank in the 3rd paragraph？______A. rushingB. shakingC. transformingD. encouraging20.Which of the following statements is true about the author______A. His occupation as a cameraman added to his inner frustration.B. He got to make friends with his mother's friend because of fly-fishing.C. In his spare time,he often walked through the vegetation along the paths.D. Finally he was cured by his childhood experience with sand sharks and puffer fish.21.Which of the following best serves as the title for the passage？______A. My Job in Photography Led Me to a Valley.B. A River Heals the Scar Left by a Camera.C. The Call of Naturalists Pushed Me to Explore.D. The Fishing Rod Links Nature With My Heart.(2021·上海市市辖区·月考试卷)EHudly wireless Price：＄349Staying focused on the road while glancing at your smart-phone or sat nav for directions can be a distraction.That's why Hudly has created its transparent heads-up display to keep your journey information right in your sight-line.Paired wirelessly with your smart-phone,this6.2-inch display allows you to view the road and its vibrant directions simultaneously.Also equipped with light sensors,this heads-up display will automatically adapt its visibility to suit your environment.Roav VIVAPrice：＄130Bring Alexa along for the ride with this plug-in speaker from Anker.Paired with yoursmart-phone,VIVA can make calls,stream music and provide audio navigation with simple voice commands.Plugged straight into your vehicle's power outlet,this travel-size companion comes equipped with two USB ports so you and your passengers can charge smart devices on the go.ZUS Smart Tire Safety MonitorPrice：＄159.98Keeping your tires at the correct pressure is of vital importance to not only staying safe on the roads,but to maintain low fuel consumption.With the ZUS smart safety monitors by Nonda,you receive real-time alerts if your tires are leaking air or in need of a refill.Taking only minutes to install,these high-tech dust caps simply screw on each tire and give you feedback on how each tire is performing,recording a detailed history of pressure changes over time.GOFARPrice：＄149Open a window into your vehicle's health with GOFAR.By simply plugging the GUFAR adapter into your ear's computer,receive real-time information about any mechanical problems or performance information sent straight to your smart-phone.In the same way a Formula Idriver monitors their fuel efficiency on the track,the GOFAR Ray keeps you up to date on how you consume fuel with the simple dashboard light array（排列）.If you're hitting the gas too hard,the GOFAR Ray will illuminate red to let you know you're wasting fuel and green when you're driving optimally（最佳地）.Automatic connected car assistantPrice：from ＄99.99If you want to get to know your car inside out,then the Automatic connected car assistant is the perfect addition to your vehicle.By simply plugging the compact diagnostic device into the vehicle,a whole host of information about your car is available at your ing the Automatic app,this driving assistant can give detailed diagnostics about maintenance issues and performance alongside crash alerts,your vehicle's real-time location and roadside assistance.Jabra FreewayPrice：＄99.99If your car isn't Bluetooth connected,then Jabra Freeway is a great gadget to listen tohigh-quality sound and answer and make calls at the touch of a button or through voice activation.With three built-in speakers,Freeway offers impressive surround sound.However,if you prefer your vehicle's speakers,the built-in FM transmitter will connect your smart-phone straight to the car's internal sound system.Equipped with a motion sensor,Freeway will always sense when you get into the car and automatically connect to your smart-phone.22.Mary,a green-hand driver,wants to know the overall health of her second-hand car and toensure road safety and timely help if anything happens.What's the best product for her？______A.

"There has been a kind of revival or a rethinking about what role guilt can serve"，says Amrisha Vaish,a psychology researcher at the University of Virginia,adding that this revival is part of a larger recognition that emotions aren't binary - feelings that may be advantageous in one context may be harmful in another.Jealousy and anger,for example,may have evolved to alert us to important inequalities.Too much happiness can be destructive. And guilt,by prompting us to think more deeply about our own goodness,can encourage humans to make up for errors and fix relationships.Guilt,in other words,can help hold a cooperative species together.It is a kind of social glue.Viewed in this light,guilt is an opportunity.Work by Tina Malti,a psychology professor at the University of Toronto,suggests that guilt may compensate for an emotional deficiency.In a number of studies,Malti and others have shown that guilt and sympathy may represent different pathways to cooperation and sharing.Some kids who are low in sympathy may make up for that shortfall by experiencing more guilt,which can control their disgusting behaviors.And vice versa：high sympathy can substitute for low guilt.In a 2014 study,for example,Malti looked at 244 ing caregiver assessments and the children's self-observations,she rated each child's overall sympathy level and his or her tendency to feel negative emotions after moral wrongdoings.Then the kids were handed chocolate coins,and given a chance to share them with an anonymous child.For thelow-sympathy kids,how much they shared appeared to turn on how likely they were to feel guilty.The ones more likely to feel guilty tended to share more,even though they hadn't magically become more sympathetic to the other children."That's good news," Malti says. "We can be prosocial because we caused harm and we feel regret."25.The underlined word "appease" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to " ______ ".A. contentB. disappointC. amuseD. distract26.The writer mentions the comparison of guilt to " a jacket stuffed with stones" to showpeople's ______ .A. general impression of guilt being overestimatedB. incorrect idea about the nature and function of guiltC. out-of date belief of guilt being their primary burdenD. long-held prejudice against those who often feel guilty27.What can be inferred from the chocolate coin experiment______A. It's necessary to ensure kids feel guilty about their wrongdoings.B. Regretful kids need to be given a chance to correct their behaviors.C. Feeling guilty has the power to make kids become more sympatheticD. The highest guilt could possibly be found in kids with the lowest sympathy.28.Which of the following is the best title for the passage？______A. Guilt vs SympathyB. Good News for Guilty PeopleC. Don't feel Guilty About Your GuiltD. What Lies Underneath Your Guilt(2021·上海市市辖区·月考试卷)AI In the Future Workplace Artificial Intelligence is making its way into business.As our special report this week explains,firms of all types are exploiting AI to forecast demand,hire workers and deal with customers.In 2017 companies spent around ＄22 billion on AI-related mergers and acquisitions,about 26 times more than in 2015.The McKinsey Global Institute,a think-tank within a consultancy,claims that just applying AI to marketing,sales and supply chains could create economic value,including profits and efficiencies,of ＄2.7 billion over the next 20 years. （1）______ .Such forecasts fuel anxiety as well as hope.Start with the benefits.AI ought to improve productivity.Humanyze collects data from employees' calendars and e-mails to workout,say,whether office layouts favor teamwork. （2）______ .Employees will gain,too.Thanks to the progress in computer vision.AI can check that workers are wearing safety equipment and that no one has been harmed on the factory floor.Some will appreciate more feedback on their work and welcome a sense of how to do better.Yet AI's benefits will come with many potential drawbacks.Algorithms（计算程序）may not be free of the prejudices of their programmers.（3）______ .The length of a commute（通勤）may predict whether an employee will quit a job,but this focus may harm poorer applicants.Older staff might work more slowly than younger ones and could risk losing their positions if all AI looks for is efficiency.（4）______ .If your skills are in demand,you are more likely to be able to resist than if you are easy to replace.Paid-by-the-hour workers in low-wage industries such as retailing will be especially subject to harm.That could fuel protest of labor unions seeking to representemployees' interests and to set regulations.Even then,the choice in some jobs will be between being replaced by a robot or being treated like one.29.

There are now well over 1,000 colleges and universities that don’t require SAT or ACT scores in deciding whom to admit, a number that is growing every year. 61 new study finds that scores on these tests are of little value in predicting students’ performance in college, and 62 (raise) the question: Should those tests be required at all?When a college considers test-optional admissions policies, the first 63 (react) people feel is that the college will admit less 64 (qualify) students. Actually, more students from diverse backgrounds 65 (admit) to colleges abolishing test scores and students graduate at a higher rate. 66 , some researchers question the impact the policies have had 67 schools. They argue that 68 the study is showing can’t prove test scores can be an obstacle for students. But two years’ worth of data clearly indicate that students who go into university with high test scores perform no better than 69 (they) fellow students. So the70 (add) value of test scores in predicting performance is minimal.If a college wants to do a better job serving traditionally under-served populations, test optional policies can provide a very useful tool. 第二节(共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分)61.

He opened the packs containing the robots, nervously staring at the mess of parts. A dozen primary-age children gathered around the table, 3 eagerly. Almost double the number of adults crowded around them, watching.Glancing around the library at the many parents and carers accompanying the robot builders, Max knew he had to face this 4 .“Okay, team,” he started 5 , adopting the tone he'd used to brief his unit during his firefighting days. “We're going to build these robots one step at a time.”The children nodded, their hands busy with screws and plastic limbs. Max wandered from table to table, 6 words of encouragement, and slowly but surely, piecing together the instructions in his mind.An hour passed, and the room was filled with the sound of chatter and clinking parts. As the final minutes of Robot Club ticked away, Max stood back and 7 the room. Robots of all shapes and sizes stood on the tables. The children were excited, 8 their creations to anyone who would look.As they began to leave, many children stopped to thank Max. Each “thank you” and “see you next week” chipped away at the sense of 9 he had felt since retiring.

Its power lies in the ability to transform ordinary experiences by capturing（捕捉）a moment or emotion. 7 (write) poetry is a privilege and struggle, in part because we need to create in 8 (we) a new way of observing the world, capturing microscopic moments as materials for our work.
