第二部分閱读理解(共两节,满分60分)

第一节(共15小题;每小题3分,满分45分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

A

You can choose from a range of optional courses to take alongside compulsory courses for your degree program, which can complement what you are studying or be completely different.

Key points to consider

Remember to explore all the options—you can look at courses related to your degree or something completely different!

Look through how the course is structured, e.g. lectures,workshops, tutorials, lab sessions.

Check how the course is assessed, e.g. coursework and/or exams.

Check for timetable clashes(please note, you cannot take optional courses which clash with your compulsory classes).

If you have a meeting with your Personal Tutor(PT)or Student support Team, they can discuss your final choices—you should be prepared to have at least 3 different course options to discuss with your School.

Your school will be able to tell you whether your course choices are available and whether .

Know your credits on your program and find other courses

You will first need to know what degree program you are on(ie. Law and French)and check how many credits you have available for optional courses. Once you know how many credits you can use, start researching the course options available using this Hub, DPRS and Path.

DRPS(Degree Regulations and Programs of Study)

This is a helpful tool and an alternative way of viewing the same information that is shown on Path. DRPS is the University’s complete database of programs and course information available and updated each year. Not all courses are available to all students.

PATH

Path is the University’s visual course selection and program builder tool.

Path uses information from the DRPS, allowing you to review student feedback about courses and to consider your degree pathway, review your outside course choices and generate a DRAFT timetable(please note that this does not confirm your timetable, it is a simulation tool only).

Lastly, do remember that your school will be able to tell you whether your course choices are available and whether they will fit in with your program’s timetable.

Imagine it’s pouring d own outside and you’re curled up with a cup of hot chocolate, a soft blanket and your favorite book. How do you feel? People from Denmark would describe this cozy scene as“hygge”, and it can boost happiness.

Hygge(pronounced“hoo-ga”)is a Danish word, which translates as cosiness, warmth and comfort. Meik Wiking, who wrote The Little Book of Hygge, describes it as an atmosphere—a feeling of being safe and at home—and an experience, where we take time out to enjoy simple pleasures with loved ones. It is a way of life in Denmark.“There are no expectations other than being in the moment,”explains Danish education expert Iben Sandahl.

Everybody benefits from taking time out from their daily routine—school, homework and after-school activities—to snuggle, relax and recharge. Hygge also encourages people to appreciate small pleasures, like the first bite of a delicious pastry or sharing a new song you love with a friend. These pleasures are simple and inexpensive but they have been shown to bring joy and happiness. Helen Russell, a British author who lives in Denmark, says,“An important part of wellbeing is the strength of our relationships, and hygge encourages more quality time with loved ones.”

The senses are a great place to start. Hygge could mean the sight of pretty fairy lights; the sound of an open fire crackling; the touch of a fluffy blanket; the taste of warming hot chocolate; or the smell of bread baking in the oven. Creating a“hyggekrog”, which means a nook or a cubbyhole perfect for snuggling, is also helpful. Think of it as a cozy den, with pillows and blankets. Sandahl suggests inviting your parents and siblings to play a game, turning the living room floor into a disco or baking a cake. She says,“Put on some music you love and do not think that the cake should be perfect. Enjoy the process, set the table, light a candle and invite everyone to a hygge moment when the cake is made.”

24. What is the function of paragraph 1?

A. To give the definition of“hygee”.

B. To provide background information.

C. To describe the feeling of“hygee”.

D. To introduce the topic.

25. If you choose the lifestyle of“hygee”, what benefits can you get?

a. It can make you feel relaxed, warm and comfortable.

b. It contributes positively to parent-child relationships.

c. It helps you to enjoy something comfortable and luxurious.

d. It turns out to be an economical option for you.

A. abc

B. bcd

C. abd

D. ab

26. Which of the following statement is not TRUE according to the passage?

A. To fully benefit from“hygee”, you have to plan in advance and put in a lot of efforts.

B. It is from Denmark that the word“hygee”originates.

C. Helen Russell thinks highly of“hygee”due to its positive effects on personal relationships.

D. Environment matters in creating“hygee”.

27. Which of the title can best summarize the whole passage?

A. What is Hygge

B. Positive Lifestyle Popular in Denmark

C. Get Cosy and Embrace Hygge

D. Striking Positive Effects of Hygee

C

Cultural relics(文物)are part of a precious heritage with great historical, artistic and scientific value, but after years of burial, many cultural relics have been damaged and are in danger of disappearing.

“Inspired by the 2016 TV documentary Masters in Forbidden City, I felt like going on a mission to bring these cultural relics back to life,”said Wu Hui, 23.“That’s why I chose cultural relic restoration in college and work as a rookie(新手)restorer at the Sanxingdui Ruins site in Sichuan.”

Over 1,000 artifacts(器物)including bronzeware and face masks have been found in Sanxingdui. To help people better understand the restoration process, Sanxingdui opened China’s first publicly viewable relic restoration hall on Sept 28. With special instruments like electron microscopes(電子显微镜)and X-ray colorimeters(色度计),restorers detect and analyze the composition of cultural relics and make scientific repair plans in this relic hospital.

“Wu restores pottery, jades, bronzes and ivory works in the hall. In recent months, Wu and her coworkers have cleaned more than 180 pieces of ivory from 3,000 years ago. They wash the ivory carefully with purified water, using small bamboo knives to scrape off(刮掉)the dirt little by little, then collect the peeled-off pieces in case they need to glue them back together later.“Rotten ivory works will collapse with little strength, so we need to be especially cautious,”Wu said.“A good restorer also needs to be bold. For example, when we restore bronze works, we use surgical(外科的)knives and hammers. We have to be bold enough to make moves.”

As for Xie Li, 29, another restorer who has been engaged in the relic restoration in Sanxingdui for over seven years, repairing ivory works requires patience and archaeological(考古学的)knowledge. Since ivory loses water quickly after being unearthed, and is easy to crack and weather, Xie needs to wrap them up with a new biomimetic polymer(仿生高分子)bandage piece by piece. Xie also needs to cast them in plaster(石膏)after cleaning them in a special room.“Those bandages help to keep the moisture(水分)inside,prevent oxidation(氧化)and maintain their shapes. It’s like putting a mask on the ivory,”Xie said.

Restoration is a quiet and long process. However, it brings backstage heroes like Xie and Wu a great sense of accomplishment.“I felt happy to gradually see the beautiful textures on the ivory works. It’s like opening magical boxes-you never know what you’ll get before restoring it,”Wu said.

28. What information can we get from para 3?

A.Sanxingdui opened the first viewable relic restoration hall in the world.

B.The majority of the artifacts found in Sanxingdui are bronzeware and face masks.

C. If you go to Sanxingdui in October, you can have a close look at the restoration process.

D. Not all artifacts are in need of special instruments to get repaired.

29. Which of the following word can replace the underlined“weather”in para 5?

A. wear

B. forecast

C. withstand

D. climate

30. What words can be used to describe Wu Hui?

A. knowledgeable and determined

B. aggressive and skillful

C. kind and strong-willed

D. brave and cautious

31. What can be concluded from the restoration process of artifacts?

A. If not dealt with caution, artifacts will encounter catastrophic damage.

B. Electron microscopes and X-ray colorimeters have played the biggest role in the process.

C. Restorers need to use masks to prevent ivory from oxidation.

D. A good restorer can be either careful or bold in the restoration process.

D

Artificial intelligence is more present in our lives than ever: it predicts what we want to say in emails, helps us navigate and improves our weather reports. But the technology isn’t always beneficial. The data sets used to build AI often aren’t representative of the diversity of the population, so it can result in discriminatory practices or biases(偏見).

One example is face-recognition technology. This is used to access our mobile phones, bank accounts and apartment buildings, and is increasingly employed by police forces. But it can have problems accurately identifying women and Black people.

For three such programs released by major tech companies, the error rate was only 1 percent for light-skinned men, but 19 percent for dark-skinned men and up to a surprising 35 percent for dark-skinned women. Biases in face-recognition technologies have led to wrongful arrests.

Last week at UNESCO, 193 countries reached a groundbreaking agreement on how AI should be designed and used by governments and MIC tech companies. UNESCO’Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence took two years to put together and involved thousands of online consultations with people from a diverse range of social groups. It aims to fundamentally shift the balance of power between ordinary people and the businesses and governments developing AI.

Countries have agreed to implement this recommendation by using laws to regulate the design and deployment of AI. This means they must use affirmative action to make sure women and minority groups are fairly represented on AI design teams. Such action could take the form of quota systems that ensure these teams are diverse.

UNESCO now expects two things to happen. Firstly, governments and companies will voluntarily begin to make their AI systems comply with the principles laid out in the recommendation. Secondly, governments will begin to legislate(立法)using the recommendation as a manual. Countries will be obliged to report on the progress of their legislation and UNESCO will monitor this.

With this agreement, we are confident of putting AI to work where it can have the most impact on the world’s greatest challenges.

32. What is the disadvantage of artificial intelligence?

A. It has limited applications in real life.

B. It contributes to unfairness in gender and human races.

C. It might impair people’s privacy.

D.Ithasproblemsinaccuratelyidentifyingcriminals.

33. The figures listed in para 3 shows that.

A. AI companies need to collect more samples to develop face-recognition technologies

B. less black people are fond of using the AI technology

C. wrong arrests are partly due to the inaccuracy of face-recognition technologies

D. the diversity of the population is worth considering when companies develop AI technology

34. What of the following words has similar meaning to the underlined word“groundbreaking”?

A. Pioneering.B. Significant.

C. Constructive.D. Newfound.

35. What measures can those countries signing the agreement take to meet the requirement?

A. To consult people of various cultural backgrounds.

B. To regulate and design their AI systems guided by the recommendation of UNESCO.

C. To set laws to punish those who fail to meet the standards of AI technology.

D. To shift the balance of power between ordinary people and the AI companies.

第二節(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

While we can’t fight every battle and stay young forever, we can take some simple steps to age gracefully and remain healthy and happy. These 6 essential life changes can help you.

1. Learn to Cook

Everyone should learn how to cook. Not only are homemade dishes usually much healthier, but they are often cheaper too. Whether you make simple dishes or replicate your favorite take-away recipes, building a cooking repertoire is very important. 36 . A large part of overall health is diet, so learning how to cook early on is key.

2. Eat and Drink Wisely

37 . For example, make sure to balance food groups and mind your portion sizes. If you wake up in the morning and your stomach is full, you probably ate too much at dinner. Also, drink enough water.

3. 38

In order to make sure you move in the right direction, set goals and make plans to steer your course. For example, you may have a goal of buying a house and then create a savings plan which can help you achieve your dream. While it can be daunting, setting goals for the future actually helps you make plans and execute them in the present. 39

4. Read Widely and Often

Whethernovels, shortstories,blogpostsorotherwritten content, reading widely and often is truly a life-changing habit you should pick up in your 20s. For example, according to a Business Insider article, most successful peo- ple—including Elon Musk and Bill Gates—“credit reading, in some capacity, as a factor in their success.”To keep movingforwardandgrowingintellectually,read.

5. Develop a Growth Mindset

The growth mindset and the fixed mindset are two modes of thought which people develop, as theorized by Carol Dweck, a Harvard professor, and researcher. A fixed mindset believes that abilities are innate and therefore unchangeable. 40 Developing a growth mindset in your 20s can help you continue to see failures in your 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s not as roadblocks, but rather, detours to success.

A. Meanwhile, a growth mindset believes skills can be learned, and failures are learning opportunities.

B. That way, when the future comes, you’re all set.

C. Set Goals and Make Plans

D. The ability to cultivate a growth mindset can keep people moving forward and motivated.

E. Perhaps equally as important as what you eat is how much you eat(and drink)

F. Start setting your timetable

G. You can save money and know what ingredients are going into your body

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

DOGS fed once a day are less likely to be 61(diag-nose)with age-related conditions than those fed more often, according to an 62(analyze)of surveys completed by 24,000 people with pet dogs.“63(base)on this study, we are not recommending that people make a change in the way 64 they are feeding their dogs.”says Matt Kaeberlein at the University of Washington in Seattle, who helped establish the Dog Aging Project to study the genetic and 65(environment)causes of ageing in these and other animals, including people. Any dog owner in the US can take part by filling 66 a survey once a year. According to researchers, in most cases, dogs that 67(feed)once per day were 68(significant)less likely to have had such a diagnosis. The advice currently 69(give)by many organizations is to feed dogs twice a day. If further studies confirm that once-a-day feeding is 70(healthy)regardless of how much dogs eat overall, it might lead to a change in advice, says Kaeberlein.
