In case you missed it, a video last week showed a miniature horse eating a bowl of carrots --- from a
high chair. A high chair. Yes, really.
It might seem ___36___, but it might also be the logical extension of the growing ___37___ of treating animals as human and treating pets as children. Examples of this attitude are ___38___, and range from the innocent to the near-crazy. Some people even ___39___ their pets for Halloween or create social media accounts for them.

Too ”and “My Child has Four Paws”?
No. ___41___ animals aren't people. And pets aren't children.
There seems to be confusion about the ___42___between pets and children. People ___43___ the language of parenthood when talking to their “fur kid ”or “baby”. Of course, it' s one thing to use such language lightly, as an innocent expression of love or a（an） ___44___ of the great joy and deep bonds that pets, like children, can create. It 's quite another to use this language ___45___.
Words ___46___. Using inaccurate labels for things doesn't just blur（模糊） the very real lines between pets and people; it can lead to dangerous delusions（错觉）. What if a woman ___47___ having a baby won ' t be much different from being a “dad”to a dog?
“Pet parents”point out that they do everything ___48___ parents do - feed, bathe, clean up, care for

___50___ and morality to cats and dogs, yet that 's the most important job of a parent. Having a child means preparing another mind and soul for adulthood and ___51___. Having a pet means keeping an animal obedient and dependent so it never
___52___ the way a child eventually will.
Pets and children serve different roles, ___53___ different places in the lives of humans. ___ 54___ these fundamental differences benefits neither creatures nor people. We call “pets”___55___ loving them any less. So stopping calling your pets your “children ”.

Anony miz ing job applicati ons to elim in ate (消除) discrim in ati on is not easy.
“ Ifyou ' vegot the grades, the skills and the determ in ati on, this gover nment will en sure you can succeed, 'declared the British prime minister, on October 26th, as he introduced plans to tackle discrim in ati on in the workplace. Ten big employers in the public and private sectors —in cludi ng the civil service, HSBC and Deloitte —have agreed to start recruiting (招募) on a “ nameind ” basis in Britain; others may also follow suit. In such schemes, those drawing up shortlists of applicants cannot see their n ames, with the aim of reduci ng racial and sexual bias. But do they work?
Several countries have experimented with name-blind applications. In 2010 Germany' s
An ti-Discrim in ati on Age ncy, an advisory body, spon sored a volun tary scheme to get bus in esses to try it. I n France a law passed in 2006 made the anony miz ing of applica nts ' CVs compulsory for firms of over 50 employees. But the government was slow in laying down the conditions for how the law would operate, and only started perform ing it last year.
In Swede n and the Netherla nds there have bee n some trials. Discrim in ati on aga inst job applica nts based on their names is well documented, particularly among ethnic minorities. An experiment in Germany found that can didates with Germa n-sounding n ames were 14% more likely to be called for an in terview than can didates with Turkish on es. A review of various studies, by the In stitute for Study of Labour (IZA), a Germa n outfit, found that anony mized job applicati ons boost the cha nces of eth nic min ority can didates being in vited to an in terview. A Swede n study found that it led to more eth nic- min ority people
being hired.
However, the results from other trials are less clear. A second Swedish experiment found that only wome n, n ot immigra nts, were boosted by anonym ous recruitme nt. Accord ing to the IZA, experime nts in the Netherla nds showed no in crease in the likelihood of eth ni c-mi nority can didates being offered a job if
their CVs were see n anonym ously, suggesti ng that discrim in ati on had slid in at the in terview stage. En suri ng that a can didate is completely anonym ous is also tricky.
A 2012 French study found that foreig n-bor n can didates and those from poor districts were less likely to be called for in terview whe n applicati ons were anony mized. Its authors suggested that recruiters may
have used other indicators, such as knowledge of Arabic, to identify race. In places suffering from religious tension, such as Northern Irela nd, the n ame of a school can reveal a can didate ' s faith, while a few
miss ing on a CV may suggest mater nity leave （产假），and thus that the can didate is female. Going
n ame-bli nd whe n shortlisti ng can didates may be a sen sible start, but it is likely to be just a small step towards ending hiri ng bias.
58. What can lear n from the passage?
A. In France, the government started the anonymized recruitment in 2006.
B. I n Germa ny, cha nces of eth ni c-mi nority n ame-bli nd can didates being in terviewed are slighter.
C. In the Netherlands, the anonymous recruitment is more of a trick than an effective practice.
D. I n Swede n, not only wome n but also immigra nts may well enjoy a higher recruitme nt rate.
59. What does the underlined phrase drawing up ”n paragraph 2 mean?
A. writi ng out
B. tak ing in
C. making up
D. pick ing out
60. By writi ng the passage, the author tries to ____ .
A. i nform readers of the idea of anony miz ing job applicati ons
B. explain how anony mizati on in recruitme nt is operated
C. discuss whether anony mizatio n in job applicati ons works
D. promote the strategies of n ame-bli nd recruitme nt

SAN FRANCISCO---When you pull the headset over your eyes and the game begins, you are tran sported to a tiny room with white walls. Your task is to break out of the room, but you cannot use your han ds. There is no joystick or game pad. You must use your thoughts.
You turn toward a ball on the floor, and your brain sends a comma nd to pick it up. With ano ther thought, you send the ball crash ing into a mirror, break ing the glass and reveali ng a few nu mbers on a wall. You men tally type those nu mbers into a large keypad by the door. And you are out.
Designed by Neurable, a small startup founded by Ramses Alcaide, an electrical engineer and neuroscientist （神经科学家）,the game offers what you might call a computer mouse for the mind, a way of selecting items in a virtual world with your thoughts.
Combining a headset with virtual reality goggles and sensors that can read your brain waves, this prototype （样机）is a few years from the market. And it is limited in what it can do. You cannot select an object with your mind uni ess you first look in its direct ion, n arrow ing the nu mber of items you may be con sideri ng.
But it works. I recently played the game, which has the working title Awakening , when Alcaide and
two Neurable employees passed through San Fran cisco, and a few hun dred others tried it this month at the Siggraph computer graphics conference in Los An geles.
The prototype is among the earliest fruits of a widespread effort to embrace technology that was once science
fiction---and in some ways still is. Driven by recent investments from the US government and by the herd mentality （从众心理）in the tech world, a number of startups and bigger companies like Facebook are work ing on ways to men tally con trol mach in es. They are also look ing for smoother ways to use virtual reality tech no logy. The in creased in terest in n eurotech no logy is partly a result of an effort the
gover nment adm ini stratio n started in 2013. The in itiative helped create sig ni fica nt gover nment financing for brain-i nterface compa nies and related work in academy.
The Neurable prototype shows what is possible today. Using electroencephalography, or EEG---a means of measuri ng electrical brain activity that has bee n around for a decade---the compa ny can provide simple ways of men tally in teract ing with a game. Some compa nies hope to go much further and want to build ways of perform ing n early any comput ing task with the mi nd. Imagi ne a brain in terface for rapidly typing on a smartpho ne.
At Neurable, which is based in Bost on, Alcaide and the member of his team are push ing the limits of EEG headsets. Although sen sors can read electrical brain activity from outside the skull, it is very difficult to separate the signal from the noise. Using computer algorithms （算法）based on research that Alcaide originally published as a doctoral student at the University of Michigan, Neurable works to read activity with a speed and accuracy that is not usually possible. The algorithms lear n from your behavior. Before playing the game, you train them to recognize when you are focusing your attention on an object. A pulse of light bounces around the virtual room, and each time it hits a small colored ball in front of you, you think about the ball. At that mome nt, whe n you focus on the light and it stimulates your brain, the system reads the electrical spikes of your brain activity.
“ Once we un dersta nd them, we can use them. expects.
61. Which of the followi ng is TRUE about the desig n of the game?
A. You can break the glass with a simple click of the mouse.
B. You can select as many items around you as you like.
C. The game has boosted the gover nment revenues since its release.
D. The game can ' t work without sen sors and virtual reality tech no logy.
62. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6?
A. What was a fan tasy is coming true with tech no logy.
B. Whatever efforts you make might not fruit success.
C. Scie nee fiction leads to the developme nt of the prototype.
D. The tech no logy beh ind the prototype enjoys wide popularity.
63. What can we lear n from the last paragraph?
A. It ' s not un com mon that we usually have differe nt voices in mind.
B. There ' s still a long way to go before the game is fully matured.
C. The Alcaide team focuses on limiti ng the usage of headsets.
D. It ' s impossfbteAlcaide to read activities fast and accurately.
64. What might be the best title of the passage?
A. A game con trolled with mind
B. A mach ine leadi ng to the future
C. Neurable: ki ng of tomorrow
D. Neurology: a cutt in g-edge zone
D
Miss Martha, aged 40, kept a little bakery on the corner.
Two or three times a week a customer came in in whom she began to take an interest. He spoke En glish with a strong Germa n acce nt. His clothes were worn and darned in places, and wrin kled and baggy in others. But he looked n eat, and had very good mann ers.
1. He always bought two loaves of stale bread. Fresh bread was five cents a loaf. Stale ones were two for five. Never did he call for anything but stale bread.
Once Miss Martha saw a red and brow n sta in on his fin gers. She was sure the n that he was an artist and very poor. No doubt he lived in a attic painting pictures and ate stale bread.
Often whe n Miss Martha sat dow n to her chops and light rolls and jam and tea she would sigh, and wish that the gen tle-ma nn ered artist might share her tasty meal in stead of eat ing his dry bread.
In order to test her theory as to his occupati on, she brought from her room one day a painting that she had bought at a sale, and set it aga inst the shelves behi nd the bread coun ter.
Two days afterward the customer came in.
"Two loafs of stale bread, if you please.
"A fine picture, madam," he said while she was wrapp ing up the bread.
"Yes?" says Miss Martha "I do admire art.You think it is a good picture?"
"Der balanee," said the customer, is not in good drawing. Then he took his bread, and hurried out.
How and kin dly his eyes shone beh ind his spectacles! To be able to judge perspective at a gla nee -and to live on stale bread! But genius ofte n has to struggle before it is recog ni zed. She thought he bega n to look thinner. 2. Her heart ached to add something good to eat to his meagre purchase, but her courage failed at the act. She did not dare affront him. She knew the pride of artists.
Miss Martha took to wearing her blue-dotted silk waist behind the counter. In the back room she cooked a mysterious compo und of quince seeds and borax.
One day the customer came in as usual, and called for his stale loaves. 3. While Miss Martha was reaching for them, a fire-engine came lumbering past. He hurried to the door to look, as any one will. Sudde nly in spired, Miss Martha seized the opport uni ty. With a bread knife Miss Martha made a deep slash in each of the stale loaves, inserted a generous quantity of butter, and pressed the loaves tight again.
When the customer tur ned once more she was tying the paper around them.
When he had gone, after an unu sually pleasa nt little chat, Miss Martha smiled to herself. For a long time that day her mind dwelt on the subject. She imagined the scene when he should discover her little decepti on.
He would prepare for his luncheon of dry bread and water. He would slice into a loaf -- ah!
Miss Martha blushed. Would he thi nk of the ha nd that placed it there as he ate? Would he?
The front door bell jan gled viciously. Somebody was coming in, making a great deal of no ise.
Martha hurried to the front. Two men were there. One was a young man smoking a pipe -- a man she had n ever see n before. 4. The other was her artist.
His face was very red, his hat was on the back of his head, his hair was wildly rumpled. He cli nched his two fists and shook them ferociously at Miss Martha. At Miss Martha.
"Dummkopf!" he shouted with extreme loudness; and then "Tausendonfer!" or something like it in Germa n.
Miss Martha lea ned weakly aga inst the shelves and laid one hand on her blue-dotted silk waist. The young man took the other by the collar.
"Come on," he said, "you've said eno ugh." He dragged the angry one out at the door to the sidewalk, and the n came back.
"Guess you ought to be told, ma'am," he said, "what the row is about. That's Blumberger. He's an architectural draftsman. I work in the same office with him.
"He's bee n work ing hard for three mon ths draw ing a pla n for a new city hall. It was a prize competition. He finished inking the lines yesterday. You know, a draftsman always makes his drawing in pencil first. When it's done he rubs out the pen cil lines with han dfuls of stale bread crumbs. That's better than In dia rubber.
"Blumberger's bee n buying the bread here. Well, to-day -- well, you know, ma'am, that butter isn't -well, Blumberger's pla n isn't good for anything now except to cut up into railroad san dwiches."
Miss Martha went into the back room. She took off the blue-dotted silk waist and put on the old brown serge she used to wear. Then she poured the quince seed and borax mixture out of the window into the ash can.
65. Why did the customer always buy two loaves of stale bread?
A. Because he was to poor to afford better on es.
B. Because the bread was more delicious and to his taste.
C. Because the bread had a special usage for his work.
D. Because he wan ted to create cha nces to see Miss Martha.
66. Which of the followi ng can best describe Miss Martha?
A. Sympathetic, dreamy and decisive
B. Discipli ned, ambitious and gen erous s fine appreciation for art.
s affectio n for the customer. s strong sense of cere mony.
s con fide nee in her bak ing skills 68. Which of the followi ng sentences best forwards the plot?

A livi ng wall or a gree n wall is a garde n that grows vertically rather tha n horiz on tally and can exist
in side or outside the home. Any well-lit place in side your home makes a suitable en viro nmen t. I ndoor herb garde ns are grow ing in popularity and thrive well in sunny kitche ns. Any outside wall does as well. Gree n or living walls are beneficial to us in so many ways. I will discuss below, in simple terms, how these vertical garde ns can protect your home and environment, save you en ergy and ben efit your health.
Polluta nts exist all around us both outdoors and in doors. Toxic fumes （有毒气体）go into the air we breathe through our air systems and can cause what we com monly call
“ Sick Buildi ng Syn
drome
living walls can significantly clear up the toxins. While all plants absorb pollutants, there are certain plants that do so with much more efficiency. Even one plant can remove toxins from your home or building. However, the more pla nts are added, the more tox ins are absorbed.
C. Proud, sen sitive and con

D. Practical, depe ndable and dilige nt

The plantings prevent dramatic temperature variation, which then prevents the building from corrosi on（腐蚀）that results from expa nding and con tract ing duri ng extreme temperatures. These pla nts act
as a n atural in sulati on, keep ing air in side the build ings cooler in the summer mon ths and warmer duri ng the wi nter
mon ths. The manner in which these vertical garde ns are con structed allows the buildi ng to breathe and protects the walls from wind, harmful UV rays and corrosive rai n. Besides, livi ng walls and gree n roofs help to provide a n atural
environment for birds and butterflies.
Simply put, the pla nts on the build in g's exterior keep the buildi ng protected from the heat of the sun, thus keep ing
the buildi ng itself cooler so that less en ergy is employed whe n you are cooli ng the buildi ng. Interior green walls also
greatly help to reduce energy use by helping to keep the interior cool. With each additional plant, energy consumption is
reduced. Therefore, a room with hundreds of plants can see a temperature reduct ion of as much as 7 °C . This is in deed
sig ni fica nt! During the cold win ter mon ths these green walls have the opposite effect and act as insulation from bitter
temperatures. The additional layer preve nts heat from escap ing, thus help ing you to con sume less gas or or oil.
Plants offer instant stress relief by softening the environment around us. They reduce noise and polluti on. Garde ns
have an in sta nt calmi ng effect. In workplaces pla nts have bee n exploited to in crease productivity, in the home they in
crease peace. They ease stress and tired ness, and offer rich oxyge n. Garde ns are strategically placed in hospitals for
their calmi ng ben efits, which can lead to a patie nt's shorte ned stay. Try doubli ng the health ben efits by build ing an
eatable livi ng wall in your kitche n. Absolutely, these gree ns will relax you and purify the air you breathe.
With so many ben efits, why not build your own livi ng wall?

81. One possible version
A research, which involves thousands of subjects aged 10-90, reveals that people reach different capacity peaks at different ages with teenagers blessed with good memories and the elderly possessing a large vocabulary. (32 words)
The remarkable findings of the research are extremely beneficial. To begin with, clearly understanding their own strengths, people of different ages can develop their potential to the fullest. For instance, middle-aged adults have the greatest capacity to stay focused and work out arithematic problems. Furthermore, the findings will boost confidence of the aged, who find their ability in vocabulary reaching a new high.
As a teenager, I shall make the most of my memory peak to gain an edge over others. Skills like critical thinking and analysis can only develop on the basis of factual knowledge. Therefore, I 'll spare no efforxt pt o see myself to books and memorize as much as possible. Hopefully, my memory peak will lay a solid foundation for my overall growth. (123 words)
