A. A travel diary. B. A life descriptin.

I used t believe that nly wrds culd catch the essence f the human sul. The literary wrks cntained such distinct stries that they shaped the way we saw the wrld. Wrds were what cmpsed the questins we sught t uncver and the answers t thse questins themselves. Wrds were everything.
That belief changed.
In an rdinary math class, my teacher psed a simple questin: What’s 0.99 runded t the nearest whle number? Easy. When runded t the nearest whle number, 0.99=1. Smehw, I thught even thugh 0.99 is nly 0.01 away frm 1, there’s still a 0.01 difference. That means even if tw things are nly a little different, they are still different, s desn’t that make them cmpletely different?
My teacher answered my questin by presenting anther equatin (等式): 1= 0.9, which culd als be expressed as 1= repeating itself withut ever ending.
There was smething mysterius but fascinating abut the equatin. The left side was unchangeable, bjective: it cntained a number that ended. On the right was smething endless, number repeating itself limitless times. Yet, smehw, these tw ppsed things were cnnected by an equal sign.
Lying in bed, I thught abut hw much the equatin paralleled ur existence. The left side f the equatin represents that smetimes life itself is s unchangeable and s clear. The cncrete, whle number f the day when yu were brn and the day when yu wuld die. But then there is that gap in between life and death. The right side means a time and space full f limitless pssibilities, and endless pprtunities int the pen future.
S that’s what life is. Objective but imaginative. Unchangeable but limitless. Life is an equatin with tw sides that balances itsef ut. Still, we can’t ever truly seem t put the perfect wrds t it. S pssibly numbers can express ideas as eually well as wrds can. Fr nw, let’s leave it at that: 1= and live a life like it.

Researchers have develped a material made f cllagen prtein（胶原蛋白）frm pig's skin, which resembles the human crnea（眼角膜）and restred visin t 20 peple. The prmising result f the trial brings hpe t peple suffering frm crneal blindness.
An estimated 12.7 millin peple arund the wrld are blind due t their crneas being damaged r diseased. Their nly way f regaining visin is t receive a transplanted crnea frm a human dnr. But just ne in 70 patients receives a crnea transplant. Furthermre, mst f them live in lw and middle-incme cuntries in which access t treatments is very limited.
T avid the abve disadvantages f traditinal crnea treatment, the researchers used cllagen prtein frm pig's skin. "It is pssible t develp a bimaterial that meets all the criteria fr being used as human implants（移植物）, which can be mass-prduced and reach mre peple with visin prblems, "said Prfessr Neil Lagali. While dnated crneas must be used within tw weeks, the biengineered crneas can be stred fr up t tw years befre use. The pig skin used is a byprduct f the fd industry, making it easy t access.
The researchers have als develped a new surgical methd fr treating the disease. N stitches（缝针）are needed with this new methd. In a pilt study, 14 f the 20 participants were blind befre the peratin. After tw years, all f the patients regained their sight. Three f the Indian participants wh had been blind had perfect visin after the peratin.
The researchers als want t study whether the technlgy can be used t treat mre eye diseases, and whether the implant can be adapted t the individual fr even greater effectiveness.

Studies have shwn the mere expsure effect, als referred t as the familiarity principle, inspires ur decisins. It is a helpful psychlgical mechanism that helps us sustain ur energy and fcus ur attentin n ther things. Getting used t new things takes effrt and it can be exhausting. S unless we have a terrible experience, we are likely t buy frm cmpanies we’ve gt used t. That is why cmpanies spend s much mney n advertising and marketing and why insurance cmpanies penly charge existing custmers mre than new nes.
It’s nt the case that we nly desire things we already knw. Sme studies suggest when invited t share ur preferences, we smetimes see less familiar ptins as mre desirable. But when acting n that preference, we fall back t what we knw. This might explain why smetimes the things we want and the things we d dn’t quite match up. We might even return t cmpanies that treated us prly in the past r stay in bad relatinships.
It’s easy t paint the familiarity principle as an enemy r smething t battle as if it is smething that hlds us back frm living ur dreams. But this attitude might be verwhelming because it tends t encurage us tward big-picture thinking. Where we imagine that change requires a substantial dramatic swing that we dn’t feel ready fr. Sme articles suggest the slutin t familiarity frustratin is cmplete expsure t nvelty. While this can appear effective in the shrt run, we may nly end up replacing ne prblem with anther. It als risks verwhelm and burnut.
S what if we can wrk with the familiarity principle instead? Familiarity is smething we can learn t play with and enjy. It is a setting fr creativity and a pathway t expansin. We can braden the zne f familiarity bit by bit. If we think f familiarity as smething that can expand, we can cnsider changing the cnditins in and arund ur lives t make mre space fr ur preferences t take rt and grw gently. Frm here, we will start t make decisins, drawing frm an ever-deepening pl f valuable ptins.
12．What allws insurance cmpanies t charge ld custmers mre?
A. The imprved service.B. The advertising cst.
C. The familiarity principle.D. The law f the market.
13．What can be learned frm paragraph 2?
A. Our preferences affect ur decisins.
B. Familiarity tends t generate disrespect.
C. The familiarity principle is a duble-edged swrd.
D. There can be a mismatch between desires and actins.
14．What is the authr’s attitude twards the slutin in sme articles?
A. Disapprving.B. Tlerant.C. Objective.D. Reserved.
15．Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Step Out Of Yur Familiarity Zne
B. Spare A Thught Fr Yur Preference
C. Gently Expand Yur Familiarity Zne
D. Give Pririty T The Mere Expsure Effect

14．答案：A

It is a helpful psychlgical mechanism that helps us sustain ur energy and fcus ur attentin n ther things. Getting used t new things takes effrt and it can be exhausting.(研究表明，单纯的暴露效应，也被称为熟悉原则，会激发我们的决定。这是一种有益的心理机制，可以帮助我们保持精力充沛，并将注意力集中在其他事情上。习惯新事物需要努力，而且可能会让人筋疲力尽。)”以及最后一段“We can braden the zne f familiarity bit by bit.

Frm here, we will start t make decisins, drawing frm an ever-deepening pl f valuable ptins.(我们可以一点一点地扩大熟悉的范围。如果我们认为熟悉是一种可以扩展的东西，我们可以考虑改变我们生活中的环境，为我们的喜好提供更多的空间，让它生根发芽。从这里开始，我们将从越来越多的有价值的选择中做出决定。)”可知，文章主要讨论了熟悉性原则对我们决策的影响，以及如何利用这一原则进行创新和拓展。文章强调了我们可以逐步扩大熟悉的范围，通过改变生活中的条件，为我们的偏好提供更多的空间，使其能够生根并温和地成长。因此，选项C“Gently Expand Yur Familiarity Zne”最能概括文章的主题，即鼓励读者在保持熟悉感的同时，逐渐扩展自己的舒适区。故选C。
