AClimbing Without RopesThe popular image of the mountain climber is of a person carefully climbing a steep cliff with a network of safety ropes, but it is not the only kind. Many climbers now enjoy bouldering. It’s more accessible and better for the environment.What is bouldering?Bouldering is a sport that involves climbing on, over, and around boulders up to approximatelytwenty feet above the ground. Participants employ no safety ropes.Why boulder?•improve your climbing skills by focusing on basics•places to climb, such as climbing walls at gyms and parks, easy to find•less time commitment to bouldering than to mountain climbing•intellectual and physical enjoyment as one solves problems Bouldering Termscrimp: a very small handholdfoothold: a place where one may place a foot to aid in climbing boulderjug: a very large handhold that is easy to use problem: The path up a boulder is referred to as the “problem” that one must solve. The “solution” is the sequence of moves one makes up and over a boulder.Here is an example of a climber addressing a bouldering problem.Figure 1: The climber has two routes she could take, one to the left and one to the right. The left one appears easier because it has a jug within easy reach, but look what happens if she chooses that direction. She gets stuck on the rock and has to go back down. Sometimes that is even more difficult than going up.Figure 2: The climber takes the one to the right this time. Using a foothold and placing her right hand in a crimp, she is able to lift herself up and locate other handholds. After only a few moves, she is able to throw her leg over thetop of the boulder and pull herself up.21. Why does bouldering become popular?A. It challenges the limits.B. It costs less.C. It builds minds and bodies.D. It is a team game.22. According to the example, the right route is .A. a shortcutB. a dead endC. tough but to the topD. lined with jugs23. The passage is likely to appear in .A. a book reviewB. a science reportC. a newspaper advertisementD. a sports magazineBOne of the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are.When we see something we don’t like, we wish it could be different. We cry out for something better. That may be human nature, or perhaps it’s something ingrained（根深蒂固）in our culture. The root of the unhappiness isn’t necessarily that we want things to be different. However, it’s that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place. We’ve judged it as bad, rather than saying, “it’s not bad or good, and it just is it.”In one of my books, I said “You should expect people to mess up and expect things to go differently than you planned.” Some readers said it’s too sorrowful to expect things to go wrong. However, it’s only negative if you see it as negative and judge it as bad. Instead, you could accept it as the way the world works and try to understand whythat is.This can be applied to whatever you do: how other people act at work, how politics works and how depressing the news media can be. Acce pt these things as they are, and try to understand why they’re that way. It will save you a lot of sadness, because you’ll no longer say, “Oh. I wish bad things didn’t happen!”Does it mean you can never change things? Not at all. But change things not bec ause you can’t accept things as they are, but because you enjoy the process of changing, learning and growing.Can we make this world a better place? You can say that you’ll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a person, to make a difference in this world. That’s the correct path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path. Therefore, when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference, try a different approach: accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting results.24. The author believes that we feel unhappy maybe because .A. it is our natural emotion in the lifeB. culture asks us to be different from othersC. everyone has their own opinions on thingsD. we dislike something in the beginning25. What does the underlined word“It” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Acting well at work and in politics.B. Feeling depressed for the news media.C. Accepting and understanding what has happened.D. Saying something negative when bad things come.26. What are you advised to do according to the last paragraph?A. Help others make a difference.B. Enjoy what you have to do in the work.C. Judge yourself and make a wish for you.D. Try a new way when making the world better.27. What is the main theme of the passage?A. Expecting things to be different gives us hope.B. Accepting can make our life happier and better.C. Traditional culture becomes root of unhappiness.D. Judging good or bad is important for our world.CWhy do you go to the library? For books, yes－but you like booksbecause they tell stories. You hope to get lost in a story or be transportedinto someone else’s life. At one type o f library, you can do just that－eventhough there’s not a single book.At a Human Library, instead of books, you can “borrow” people. Individuals volunteer as human “books” and participants in the event can “read”the book－meaning they would have a one-on-one conversation with the volunteer and share in a dialogue about that i ndividual’s experience. “Books” are volunteers from all wa lks of life who have experienced discrimination based on race, religion, class, gender identity, age, lifestyle choices, disability and other aspects of their life.For a certain amount of time, you can ask them questions and listen to their stories, which are as fascinating and as attractive as any you can find in a book. Many of the stories have to do with some kind of stereotype. You can speak with a refugee（难民）, a soldier suffering from PTSD, a homeless person or a woman living with HIV. The Human Library encourages people to challenge their own long-held beliefs－to truly get to know, and learn from someone they might otherwise make a quick judgment about.According to its website, the Human Library is “a place where difficult questions are expected, app reciated and answered” It provides the opportunity for the community to share and understand the experiences of others in their community.The Human Library Organization came to be in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2000. Ronni Abergel, his brother Dany, and some colleagues hosted a four-day event during a major Northern European festival, hoping to raise awareness about violence among youth. After the success of this event, Abergel founded the Human Library Organization, which has been growing ever since.Though there are a few permanent human libraries, most aren’t places at all, but events. Though many do take place at physical libraries, you don’t need a library card－anyone can come and be part of the experience. There have been human library events all over the globe, in universities and in pubs, from Chicago to Tunis to Edinburgh to San Antonio.The stories these “books” tell range from fascinating to heartbreaking and everything in between. And that’s the very point of the organization－to prove that no person can be summed up in just one word. It seeks to show people that you truly can’t judge a book by its cover－or by its title or label.28. What are the “books” in human libraries?A. Long-held beliefs attracting individuals.B. Inspiring stones motivating people in trouble.C. Events in which people can talk to volunteers.D. Unfairly-treated people sharing their experiences.29. In human libraries, the readers are likely to .A. deepen their understanding of peopleB. enrich their own personal experiencesC. hear the stories from all over the worldD. make quick judgments about the “books”30. The event in Copenhagen is significant because it .A. aimed to help the young suffering from violenceB. attempted to replace traditional physical librariesC. laid a foundation for the Human Library OrganizationD. led to a pleasing development for the community with racism31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Foundation of a New LibraryB. Sharing of Inspiring StoriesC. “Borrow” People Instead of BooksD. Never Judge a Book by its CoverDThere may come a day when human use robotic parts to enhance our abilities. But long before then, a seemingly opposite thing may take place, with robots being equipped with human tissue or other living cells to make them more lifelike.These “biohybrid” robots could be given muscle cells to help them perform tiny movement. And on a microscopic scale, tiny robots could be combined with bacteria to carry them through the body for precise medical procedures.In a new review of studies, an international group of scientists and engineers described the state of biohybrid robotics - a field that is entering a “deep revolution in both the design principles and constitutive elements（构成要件）” of robots. The review was published in the journal Science Robotics.“In this field, we utilize the functions of living cells in artificial robots to make them perform better, ’’ said leadauthor Leonardo Ricotti of the BioRobotics Institute in Pisa, Italy.Scientist have created robbots of all shapes and sizes with increasing complexity in recent decades. Some robots function well in factories. Robots smaller than a millimeter are being developed to be placed in the body to kill cancer cells or heal wounds.But what’s lacking among all these fascinating robots is the range of fine movement and energy efficiency found in living organisms（生物体）.That’s why it’s necessary to combine elements of living organisms with robots, said Ricotti.If robot movement and efficiency are improved, scientists could use them to explore the human body, monitor environments too small for current robots, or manufacture products with greater precision, the authors wrote in the review.There are limits to what these biohybrid robots can achieve, though, Ricotti said. Living cells need to be nourished（滋养）, which means that, for now, these robots tend to be short-lived. Also, biohybrid robots can operate only in the temperature range suitable for life.Despite these challenges, Ricotti and his colleagues said, the field of biohybrid robots is rapidly developing from the “art of the possible” to the “reliable manufacturing”.32. What can we learn about “biohybrid” robots from the passage?A. They could be combined with human body.B. They could move in a much more precise way than ordinary robots.C. They are robots specially designed for disabled people.D. They could help to improve the function of human tissue.33. The underlined word “utilize” in the fourth paragraph probably means “”.A. run intoB. take charge ofC. put up withD. make use of34. What factors limit biohybrid robots at present?①Cells can’t stay alive for a long time in robots.②They can’t be completely controlled by human.③They can’t be used in extreme heat or cold.A. ①②B. ②③C. ①③D. ①②③35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Great progress has been made in the field of biohybrid robots.B. Biohybrid robots are developing slowly due to their limitations.C. There is a long way to go to turn biohybrid robots into reality.D. The idea of creating “biohybrid robots” has met some challenges.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
