Self-driving cars have been backed by the hope that they will save lives by getting involved in fewer crashes with fewer injuries and deaths than human-driven cars. But so far, most comparisons between human-driven cars and automated vehicles have been unfair.
Crash statistics for human-driven cars are gathered from all sorts of driving situations, and on all types of roads. However, most of the data on self-driving cars’ safety have been recorded often in good weather and on highways, where the most important tasks are staying in the car’s own lane and not getting too close to the vehicle ahead. Automated cars are good at those tasks, but so are humans.
It is true that self-driving cars don’t get tired, angry, frustrated or drunk. But neither can they yet react to uncertain situations with the same skill or in anticipation of an attentive human driver, nor do they possess the foresight to avoid potential perils. They largely drive from moment to moment, rather than think ahead to possible events literally down the road.
To a self-driving car, a bus full of people might appear quite similar to an uninhabited cornfield. Indeed, deciding what action to take in an emergency is difficult for humans, but drivers will sacrifice themselves for the greater good of others. An automated system’s limited understanding of the world means it will almost never evaluate a situation in the same way as a human would do. And machines can’t be programed in advance to handle every imaginable set of events.
Some people may argue that the promise of simply reducing the number of injuries and deaths is enough to support driverless cars. But experience from aviation(航空) shows that as new automated systems are introduced, there is often an increase in the rate of disasters.
Therefore comparisons between humans and automated vehicles have to be performed carefully. To fairly evaluate how well driverless cars fulfill their promise of improved safety, it’s important to ensure the data presented actually provide a true comparison. After all, choosing to replace humans with automation has more effects than simply one-for-one exchanging.
4. What makes the comparisons between self-driving cars and human-driven cars unfair?
A. Statistics are collected differently. B. Machines can make decisions faster.
C. Self-driving cars never get tired. D. Self-driving cars know the world better.
5. In which aspect can self-driving cars beat human drivers?
A. Climbing steep slopes. B. Evaluating the cost of loss.
C. Driving steadily. D. Making complex decisions.
6. Why does the author write this text?
A. To support human-driven cars.
B. To stress the importance of reducing car accidents.
C. To show his doubts about self-driving cars.
D. To call for exact evaluation of self-driving cars.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是议论文。文章对比了人类驾驶和自动驾驶汽车,并要求准确评估自动驾驶汽车。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Crash statistics for human-driven cars are gathered from all sorts of driving situations, and on all types of roads. However, most of the data on self-driving cars’ safety have been recorded often in good weather and on highways, where the most important tasks are staying in the car’s own lane and not getting too close to the vehicle ahead. Automated cars are good at those tasks, but so are humans.”(人类驾驶汽车的碰撞统计数据是从各种驾驶情况和各种道路上收集的。然而,大多数关于自动驾驶汽车安全性的数据通常都是在天气好的情况下和高速公路上记录的,在那里最重要的任务是保持在自己的车道上,不要太靠近前面的车辆。自动化汽车擅长这些任务,但人类也是如此)可知,人类驾驶汽车和自动驾驶汽车之间的大多数比较都是不公平的,这是因为统计数据的收集方式不同。故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“It is true that self-driving cars don’t get tired, angry, frustrated or drunk.”(的确,自动驾驶汽车不会感到疲劳、愤怒、沮丧或醉酒)和第五段“Some people may argue that the promise of simply reducing the number of injuries and deaths is enough to support driverless cars.”(一些人可能会认为,仅仅减少伤亡人数的承诺就足以支持无人驾驶汽车)可知,在驾驶的稳定性方面,自动驾驶汽车会打败人工驾驶。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Therefore comparisons between humans and automated vehicles have to be performed carefully. To fairly evaluate how well driverless cars fulfill their promise of improved safety, it’s important to ensure the data presented actually provide a true comparison. After all, choosing to replace humans with automation has more effects than simply one-for-one exchanging.”(因此,必须仔细比较人类和自动车辆。为了公平地评估无人驾驶汽车在多大程度上实现了其提高安全性的承诺,重要的是确保所提供的数据能够提供真实的对比。毕竟,选择用自动化代替人类比简单的一对一交换具有更大的影响)可知,这篇文章的写作目的是要求准确评估自动驾驶汽车。故选D。
C
Most of us marry creativity to our concept of self either we're "creative" or we aren't, without much of a middle ground. "I'm just not a creative person!" a frustrated student might say in art class, while another might blame her talent at painting for her difficulties in math, giving a comment such as, "I'm very right-brained."
Dr. Pillay, a tech entrepreneur and an assistant professor at Harvard University, has been challenging these ideas. He believes that the key to unlocking your creative potential is to ignore the traditional advice that urges you to "believe in yourself." In fact, you should do the opposite: Believe you are someone else.
Dr. Pillay points to a 2016 study demonstrating the impact of stereotypes on one's behavior; The authors. educational psychologists Denis Dumas and Kevin Dunbar, divided their college student subjects into three groups, instructing the members of one to think of themselves as "romantic poets" and the members of another to imagine they were "serious librarians" (the third group was the control). The researchers then presented all the participants with ten ordinary objects, including a fork, a carrot, and a pair of pants, and asked them to come up with as many different uses as possible for each one. Those who were asked to imagine themselves as romantic poets came up with the widest range of ideas, whereas those in the serious-librarian group had the fewest. Meanwhile, the researchers found only small differences in students' creativity levels across academic majors.
These results suggest that creativity is not a fixed individual characteristic but a "malleable product of context and perspective, as long as he or she feels like a creative person. Dr. Pillay argues that, besides identifying yourself as creative, taking the bold, creative step of imagining you are somebody else is even more powerful. So, wish you were more creative? Just pretend!
7. According to the passage, who is more likely to unlock his creative potential?
A. An art major who always believes in himself.
B. A math major who has excellent academic performance
C. A physics major who likes to imagine himself as a poet.
D. A history major who works as a librarian on weekends.
8. What does the Study conducted by Denis Dumas and Kevin Dunbar focus on?
A. The creativity of the college students.
B. The stereotypes of the college students.
C. The impact of stereotypes on one's behavior
D. The influence of creativity on one's behavior.
9. The underlined word in the last paragraph probably means__________?
A. stable B. sustainable C. predicable D. changeable
10. Dr Pillay may agree with the statement that__________.
A. there is no doubt that we are either creative or not
B a student who doesn't do well in art class is not creative
C. right brain determines whether a person is creative or not
D. if we pretend to be creative, then we might be really creative
【答案】7. C 8. C 9. D 10. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了释放自己的创造力的最好方法就是把自己想象成另一个人,假装自己有创造力,你可能就会真的具有创造力。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“He believes that the key to unlocking your creative potential is to ignore the traditional advice that urges you to "believe in yourself." In fact, you should do the opposite: Believe you are someone else.”(认为,释放你的创造力的关键是忽视那些促使你“相信自己”的传统建议。事实上应该反其道而行之:相信自己是另一个人)可知,把自己想象成另一个人才能释放创造力,因此,一个喜欢把自己想象成诗人的物理专业学生更有可能释放他的创造力,故选C。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Dr. Pillay points to a 2016 study demonstrating the impact of stereotypes on one's behavior; The authors. educational psychologists Denis Dumas and Kevin Dunbar, divided their college student subjects into three groups”(皮莱博士指出,2016年的一项研究显示了刻板印象对一个人行为的影响。教育心理学家丹尼斯·杜马斯和凯文·邓巴将他们的大学生分为三组)可知,丹尼斯·杜马斯和凯文·邓巴的研究的重点是刻板印象对一个人行为的影响,故选C。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“These results suggest that creativity is not a fixed individual characteristic”可知,这些结果表明,创造力不是一个固定的个人特征,but表明画线词词义与fixed(固定的)相反,即:可改变的,故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dr. Pillay argues that, besides identifying yourself as creative, taking the bold, creative step of imagining you are somebody else is even more powerful. So, wish you were more creative? Just pretend!”(皮莱博士认为,除了认为自己是有创造力的人之外,大胆地、创造性地把自己想象成另一个人的想法更为有力。那么,希望你更有创造力?假装一下!)可知,皮莱博士会同意:如果我们假装有创造力,那么我们可能真的有创造力,故选D。
二、七选五(2*5=10分)
How would you feel if you had to give up your smartphone for nine days? In 2014, and again in 2018,philosophy professor and writer Ron Srigley offered extra credit to those who would give him custody of their phones for nine days and write about the experience.
“What they wrote was remarkable, and remarkably consistent,” Srigley wrote. At first, all the students felt disoriented and frustrated. ____11____
They paid more attention to the people around them.
For one thing, they observed, for the first time, how much other people were using their phones, for example in the middle of a face-to-face conversation.
“____12____, but yet again, I find myself guilty of this sometimes because it is the norm,” one student wrote. Another noted that as she walked by other people, they tended to pull out their phones “right before I could gain eye contact with them”.
They had better face-to-face conversations with family.
Two of the students were accustomed to using their phones to constantly message with their family members throughout the day, and they felt deprived of this contact. But when the students spent in-person time with their parents, ____13____.
They were more afraid.
Some of the students reported that they were fearful of having no phones, wondering what they would do if they were kidnapped or attacked or had to call an ambulance for some reason. Srigley noted, “What’s revealing is that these students perceived the world to be a very dangerous place. ____14____. The city in which these students lived has one of the lowest crime rates in the world and almost no violent crime of any kind, yet they experienced a pervasive, undefined fear.”
“Without cellphones, life would be simple and real, ____15____.” That’s probably truer for all of us than we would like to admit.
A. This action is very rude and unacceptable
B. their conversations were constantly interrupted
C. but we got things done quicker without the cell
D. Cellphones were seen as necessary to combat that danger

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,如果可以在视频通话中触碰亲人会是什么样的感受?这听起来或许很不可思议,但科学家通过柔软的皮肤拉伸装置正将其变为现实。
【36题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:最近澳大利亚新南威尔士大学的研究人员发明了一种柔软的皮肤拉伸装置,这是一种可以重现触觉的设备。此处的时间状语Recently 强调时间长度而非时间点,所以用现在完成时(而不用一般过去时),主语researchers是名词复数,助动词用have。故填have invented。
【37题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:它通过力、振动或者运动来达到类似于真实世界中的感觉。分析句子可知,空处引导宾语从句,引导词在从句中作主语,表示“在真实世界中的感觉”,指物,应用what引导。故填what。
【38题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:你戴上配有柔软皮肤拉伸装置的触觉手套,你的朋友也戴着带有集成3D力传感器的手套。动词integrate和名词sensors之间是动宾关系,应用过去分词作定语。故填integrated。
【39题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意:当你的朋友捡起一个物体时,这个物体就会压在你朋友的手指上。object物体,可数名词,此处泛指“一个物体”,应用不定冠词,且object发音是以元音音素开头。故填an。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意同上。修饰动词press,应用副词形式。故填physically。
【41题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:这些3D力信号可以发送到你的手套上,因此你的设备也将产生相同的3D力,让你能体验到和你的朋友一样的触感。动词send和主语The force signals之间是被动关系,应用被动语态,情态动词can后接动词原形。故填be sent。
【42题详解】
考查现在分词。句意同上。此处表示一种自然而然的结果,应用现在分词作结果状语。故填making。
43题详解】
考查介词。句意:触觉设备可以让用户感受到虚拟世界或远距离的物体。at a distance在远处,固定短语。故填at。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:疫情期间,人们依靠视频电话与挚爱的人保持联系,在这些时候,触觉设备就格外有用。空处应填形容词作表语,beneficial有益的,形容词。故填beneficial。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:医生无需触摸,通过手术工具就能感受到病人的器官组织。根据上文提到的触觉设备的作用可知,医生无需触摸,通过手术工具就能感受到病人的器官组织,without没有,不借用,介词,符合语境。故填without。

53. She works as a consumer ____________ (拥护者,支持者). (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】advocate
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:她是一名消费者维权者。根据汉语提示,空处填名词advocate,空前有冠词a,所以填名词单数,名词短语a consumer advocate在整个句中作宾语。故填advocate。

Last Sunday, my friend, Alun, asked me to help with our group who entertained at the local hospitals. Due to my unfinished homework, I was unwilling to go. But finally I persuaded to help him, which proved the extremely meaningful experience. I went to a local hospital with Alun on that evening. When guiding into the hospital, I was surprised to see so many patients there. Some patients were in wheelchairs, while other were with their arms in bandages. Alun said they suffered seriously pains and were a bit down these days. Besides, our performance lifted their spirits and moved all the people present, each of them cheered for us. Seeing their happy faces, I think joining Alun’s group was worthwhile.
【答案】1. our→his
2. persuaded前加was
3. the→an
4. guiding→guided
5. on删除
6. other→others
7. seriously→serious
8. Besides→However

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者接受好朋友的邀请,加入了去医院表演的队伍。他们的表演让医院的病人们重新振作了起来。看到病人们高兴的样子,作者认为这次经历很有意义。
【详解】1. 考查代词。句意:上周日,我的朋友艾伦请我去帮助他的团队在当地的医院表演。由后文可知作者的朋友Alun是男的,结合句意Alun请作者来帮“他”的团队,所以要将代词our改为his。故our改为his。
2. 考查语态。句意:但最后我被说服去帮他,最终证明了这是一次非常有意义的经历。由句意可知,此处指代作者被朋友说服去帮忙,主语I和谓语动词persuade之间是被动关系,由前后文可知时态为一般过去时,所以要用一般过去时的被动,即persuaded前加was。故persuaded前加was。
3. 考查冠词。句意:但最后我被说服去帮他,最终证明了这是一次非常有意义的经历。由句意可知,此处experience是可数名词,表示“经历”,在文中第一次出现,表泛指,extremely发音时以元音音素开头,所以要将定冠词the改为不定冠词an。故the改为an。
4. 考查固定短语句意:那天晚上我和艾伦一起去了一家当地医院。当evening前有that、this、next、every等限定词时,其前不用介词。故删除on。
5. 考查非谓语。句意:当被领进进医院时,我惊讶地看到那里有那么多病人。分析句子结构,此处是状语从句的省略,guide和逻辑主语I之间是被动关系,所以要将guiding改为过去分词guided,表被动,完整的句子是:When I was guided into the hospital, I was surprised to see so many patients there。故guiding改为guided。
6. 考查固定结构。句意:一些病人坐在轮椅上,而另一些人的手臂上缠着绷带。some…others…是固定结构,表示“一些……,另一些……”,所以要将other改为others,指代其他病人。故other改为others。
7. 考查形容词。句意:艾伦说他们遭受了严重的病痛,这几天情绪有点低落。分析句子结构,pains前的词作定语,修饰名词pains,所以要将副词seriously改为形容词serious。故seriously改为serious。
8. 考查副词。句意:然而,我们的表演鼓舞了他们的精神,感动了在场的所有人,每个人都为我们欢呼。前文句意强调病人们最近情绪低落,后文强调大家为我们的表演欢呼,前后感情色彩呈转折关系,所以要将Besides改为However。故Besides改为However。
9. 考查定语从句。句意:然而,我们的表演鼓舞了他们的精神,感动了在场的所有人,每个人都为我们欢呼。分析句子结构,此处考查“of+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句,修饰people,所以代词them要改为whom,each of whom引导该非限制性定语从句。故them改为whom。
10. 考查时态。句意:看到他们快乐的脸,我认为加入艾伦的小组是值得的。由前文可知,通篇时态都是一般过去时,所以think也要用一般过去时,即thought。故think改为thought。
