The philspher, Martin Buber, is mst knwn fr his wrk n “I-Thu/Yu” relatinships in which peple are pen, direct, mutually interested in each ther. In cntrast, “I-It” relatinships are thse in which we use the ther, like an bject, t slve ur prblems and fulfill ur needs and purpses.
It is nt ur fault that many f ur relatinships are r becme “It” relatinships because mst f what we feel, think and d is mtivated by uncnscius memries f hw t survive the envirnment int which we were brn. Thus, ne f the reasns we use ther peple t help us feel better abut urselves and cpe in the wrld is that using peple was nce necessary and it wrked. When we were small and helpless, “It” came and fed us, and held us, and set us n ur way. We didn’t have t reciprcate and care fr “It”. Even when the care and attentin f “It” was minimal r unpredictable, if we gt ut f childhd alive, smewhere alng the way “It” was invlved.
Freud called this stage f early life “primary narcissism”, which is ur instinct (本能) fr self-preservatin and is a nrmal part f ur develpment. While mst f us grw ut f it，we still hld a survival fear, which mtivates us t escape danger and t stay alive, and we all need this fear in healthy measure.
The prblem is that t many f us, t much f the time, are in a cnstant state f threat—and we ften dn’t knw it. We imagine peple are talking abut us behind ur backs, that we have cancer, that we are inadequate, and vulnerable t mre than ur share f bad luck. As ur brains have grwn in size and cmplexity, s has ur ability t scare urselves.
This causes many prblems. Fr example, ur stress levels increase, ur digestin is impaired and ur thinking becmes restricted. Our threat respnse stps any bdily functin, feeling, thught and behavir that might “waste” energy and detract frm fighting r escaping danger. Thus, when in threat, ur emtinal, cgnitive and behaviral range is significantly reduced.
And in this reduced state, ne f ur slutins is t find smene wh can save and cmfrt us. Instead f enabling us t be pen, direct and mutual, fear and anxiety lead us twards cnversatins and chices in ur relatins with thers that are rientated twards surviving—nt thriving (茁壮成长). Threat-mtivated relatinships are characterized by need, dependency, cntrl, demand, dishnesty, and self-interest.
We cannt frm the “I-Thu” relatinships that Buber speaks f until we have learned t ntice, cmfrt, and understand the emtins and patterns f ur threat brain. When in threat, we tend t use ther peple as bjects wh can save and prtect us, r wh we can blame fr ur prblems.
27. What des the underlined wrd “reciprcate” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Return the favur.B. Ask fr sme advice.
C. Cnvey an aplgy.D. Make sme cmments.
28. What can we learn abut “primary narcissism”?
A. It leads t ur survival fear.B. It is nrmal and usually temprary.
C. It impacts ur grwth negatively.D. It lays the fundatin fr Freud’s thery.
29. Which f the fllwing culd be an example f “I-It” relatinships?
A. Cmfrting an upset friend.B. Feeling srry fr yur mistakes.
C. Trying hard t be independent.D. Asking thers t take n yur task.
30. What wuld be the best title fr this passage?
A. Hw We Can Frm the “I-Thu” Relatinships
B. Hw We Can Get Out f the “I-It” Relatinships
C. Why We Treat Others as Objects Rather Than Individuals
D. What Helps Us Survive and Thrive in Early Stages f Life
【答案】27. A 28. B 29. D 30. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。 文章说明 了“I-It”关系，即我们利用对方来帮助解决我们的问题，并分析其形成的原因。
【27题详解】
词句猜测题。划线词前一句提到“When we were small and helpless, “It” came and fed us, and held us, and set us n ur way.” 作者认为在我们的童年成长过程中，“it”会来帮助我们，带我们走上正轨；划线词后提到“care fr(关心，照顾)”；and是并列连词，“reciprcate ”应该和“care fr”语义并列。由此可以猜测，“reciprcate”意思为“Return the favur（回报这份帮助，报答这份恩情。）”故选A。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。文章第三段中提到“Freud called this stage f early life “primary narcissism”, which is ur instinct (本能) fr self-preservatin and is a nrmal part f ur develpment.（弗洛伊德称之为生命早期阶段的“原始自恋”，这是我们的本能自我保护，是我们发展的正常的一部分。）”。根据“this stage f early life”可知， primary narcissism是指生命早期阶段存在的，是暂时性的；根据“a nrmal part f ur develpment”可知，primary narcissism是正常的。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。文章第二段中提到“ne f the reasns we use ther peple t help us feel better abut urselves and cpe in the wrld is that using peple was nce necessary and it wrked. When we were small and helpless, “It” came and fed us, and held us, and set us n ur way.”说明“I-It”关系是指我们利用他人来帮助我们。当我们弱小无助的时候，“它”会帮助我们，带我们走上正确的道路；文章第六段中提到“in this reduced state, ne f ur slutins is t find smene wh can save and cmfrt us.（在这种状态下，我们的解决办法之一就是找一个能拯救和安慰我们的人。）”。由此可知，“I-It”关系是指利用他人来帮助我们。由此可以推断，“Asking thers t take n yur task.（要求别人承担你的任务）”是“I-It”关系的例子。故选D。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段提到““I-It” relatinships are thse in which we use the ther, like an bject, t slve ur prblems and fulfill ur needs and purpses. ”说明“I-It”关系是指我们利用对方，（把对方）就像当作是一个物体，来解决我们的问题，满足我们的需求和目的；文章第二段提到“It is nt ur fault that many f ur relatinships are r becme “It” relatinships”，说明成为“It”关系并不是我们的错；第四段提到“The prblem is that t many f us, t much f the time, are in a cnstant state f threat（问题是，我们中的太多人，在太多的时间里，处于一种持续的威胁之中）”是分析“It”关系形成的原因；文章最后一段提到“When in threat, we tend t use ther peple as bjects wh can save and prtect us, r wh we can blame fr ur prblems.（当我们受到威胁时，我们倾向于把别人当作可以拯救和保护我们的东西，或者把我们的问题归咎于他们。）”由此可知，文章是说明什么是“I-It关系”，并分析其形成的原因。文章的标题应该是“Why We Treat Others as Objects Rather Than Individuals（为什么我们把别人当作物体而不是个人）。故选C。
D
Mve Over, Selfish Gene
Evlutin traditinally has a prblem with nice peple. If nly the fittest individuals survive, then thse wh are nice t thers at their wn expense will surely be weeded ut. Yet cperatin is widespread in nature, frm plants alerting each ther t danger t dlphins cperating t rund up fish.
A decades-ld idea called kin selectin can explain sme f this: if rganisms (生物) have enugh DNA in cmmn, then they can further their wn selfish genes by helping ne anther. Bees and ants have a system f reprductin which leaves clny members s clsely related that they act almst as a single super-rganism. And amng any sexually reprducing species, parental care helps individuals pass n their genes.
But kin selectin cannt explain why humans are s nice t strangers. One idea is that we have evlved t be super-cperative because, ver time, mre cperative grups have utcmpeted less cperative nes. But there generally isn’t enugh genetic variatin between grups t allw natural selectin t favr mre cperative nes.
Sme researchers think the slutin lies in an idea called cultural grup selectin. Frget shared genes, they argue. Selectin can favr cperative grups if the peple within them share enugh culture. The idea is cntrversial because t wrk it requires that grups remain culturally distinct. As critics pint ut, peple tend t migrate (迁移) between grups, which shuld hmgenize (使同质化) ideas and custms. Thse wh back the cncept cunter that grups have ways t maintain their distinct culture, including a prcess called nrm (准则) enfrcement. Put simply, if smene migrates int a new cultural grup, they are pressured int fllwing the lcal rules because failing t d s leads t punishment.
Earlier this year, Mathew and Handley at Arizna State University published a study testing the idea. They sampled 759 peple frm fur ethnic grups in Kenya wh cmpete intensively fr land, water and livestck. The pair estimated that genetic differences between individuals frm different grups was generally less than 15%. Cultural practices and beliefs varied much mre, by 10% t 20%. Peple cperated mst with members f their wn grup, as cultural grup selectin predicts, and t a lesser extent with members f ther grups whse nrms mst clsely matched their wn. That makes sense if culture rather than genetics is what matters. “I think this is ne f the mst explicit tests f cultural grup selectin thery s far,” says Mathew.
Nt everyne is persuaded. Krasnw at Harvard University sees n theretical flaw with the idea, but says that sme f his research undermines it. He has fund that peple dn’t just enfrce the rules within their grup, but als punish peple frm ther grups wh fail t fllw their wn grup’s nrms. Mathew cunters that it is reasnable t enfrce the nrms n utsiders as a step twards incrprating (使并入) them int yur cultural grup. “This is ften hw empires expand,” she says.

The Changing Landscape f the Music Business
The music industry is in the prcess f a great change. In the past decades, artists made mney thrugh physical sales f recrds, CDs, and cassettes. While in recent years, dwnlading sngs frm services such as Amazn r iTunes has becme the mst cmmn way fr peple t purchase music, and the whle idea f buying music t wn may be falling.

【35题详解】
根据后文“While this is great fr fans, wh nw have access t millins f sngs at the flick f a tuchscreen, it has shattered the traditinal mdel f hw an artist manages his r her career.（虽然这对歌迷来说是件好事，他们现在只需轻触触摸屏就可以访问数百万首歌曲，但它打破了艺术家管理自己职业生涯的传统模式。）”可猜测，划线句可描写这些应用程序的功能特点是如何打破艺术家管理自己职业生涯的传统模式的。G选项“These apps are available either as free versins r as mnthly subscriptin services.”（这些应用程序要么提供免费版本，要么提供月度订阅服务。）符合题意，且选项中的these apps呼应上文的Internet apps。故选G项。
【36题详解】
根据前文“The main prblem facing many musicians is that payments-per-stream f a sng are much lwer than what an artist wuld receive frm a dwnlad.（许多音乐家面临的主要问题是，每流歌曲的付费远远低于艺术家从下载中获得的费用。）”以及下文“In Nvember f 2014, award-winning musician Taylr Swift pulled her entire music catalg frm Sptify, a ppular streaming app, claiming that their business mdel suggests that music des nt hld much wrth.”（2014年11月，获奖音乐家泰勒·斯威夫特(Taylr Swift)从流行流媒体应用Sptify下架了她的全部音乐目录，声称Sptify的商业模式表明音乐没有多少价值。）可猜测，有些音乐家已经针对这个问题采取行动。C选项“Sme big-name artists have called attentin t the issue.”（一些大牌艺术家已经引起了人们对这个问题的关注。）符合题意，下文提到的Taylr Swift就是big-name artists中的一个。故选C项。
【37题详解】

根据下文“Artists must develp an image that appeals t their fans in rder t remain unique and authentic, r they risk striking the wrng chrd, which culd leave them struggling t sustain careers in this new business landscape.（为了保持独特和真实，艺术家们必须塑造出能吸引粉丝的形象，否则他们就有可能引起错误的共鸣，这可能会让他们在新的商业环境下难以维持职业生涯。）”可知，保持良好形象很重要也很困难。E选项“Maintaining a fine image while wrking n a career is certainly tricky.”（在事业上保持良好的形象当然是很棘手的。）符合题意，故选E项。
第三部分：书面表达（共两节，32分）
第一节 阅读表达（共4小题；第1、2题各2分，第3题3分，第4题5分，共12分）
阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。
Quiet the Cmplainer
Fr years, Jane Bth’s mther made lengthy airing f cmplaints. It gt s bad that Jane felt it was ruining the quality f their time tgether, s she finally spke up and helped her mther realize hw ften she cmplained. It turned ut that Jane’s interventin nt nly helped her mther-it als helped their relatinship.
Yu may nt be as direct as Jane was t her mther, but there are ther ways t get a cnstant cmplainer t end. T be effective, it helps t crrect misbeliefs abut cmplaining in the first place. In fact, even the kindest mst cnsiderate peple cmplain. And cmplaining desn’t always have a negative impact. Smetimes, cmplaining can change an unfavrable situatin int a mre desirable ne. Other times, it can fster new relatinships with peple we dn’t knw well.
The prblems start when cmplaining becmes the default mde（默认模式）“When we have a need t be heard, we repeat urselves,” says Dian Killian, a life cach, “the satisfactin fr frequent cmplainers cmes frm attentin, s they are never satisfied with any suggestin t address the prblems that they highlight reslutin isn’t their aim.”
S, hw d yu quiet a cnstant cmplainer, fr the sake f yur health and his？
Change the subject. Sme cmplainers will switch gears if yu shift the cnversatin in a directin that interests them.
Summarize the cmplaint. If yur cmplainer keeps repeating himself, he may stp if yu demnstrate that yu’re listening.
Challenge the persn t act. When a cnstant cmplainer tells yu abut his latest prblem, ask nicely what he’s dne t imprve it.
Be hnest. When yu have things t d, tell the cmplainer that yu must cut the cnversatin shrt-especially if it’s smene wh’s cmplained t yu many times befre.
When smene stresses yu ut with lts f negativity, it’s imprtant t talk abut the prblem. Otherwise, if yu bttle up yur feelings and cntinue listening t repeated cmplaints, yu may grw annyed r start aviding the persn.
Remember: Quieting a cnstant cmplainer can be beneficial t bth f yu.
40. What did Jane Bth d t stp her mther cmplaining?
_______________________________________________________________
41. Accrding t Paragraph 2, what are the misbeliefs abut cmplaining?
_______________________________________________________________
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Cmplaining frequently is a way that peple ask fr suggestins fr their prblems.
_______________________________________________________________
43. Yur friend has been cnstantly cmplaining abut almst everything in life. What wuld yu d t help him?（abut 40 wrds）
_______________________________________________________________
【答案】40. Jane Bth spke up t her mther and helped her realize hw ften she cmplained t stp her frm making lengthy cmplaints .
41. The misbeliefs abut cmplaining are that nly negative peple cmplain and that cmplaining always has a negative impact.
42. Cmplaining frequently is a way that peple ask fr suggestins fr their prblems.
43. I wuld first listen t my friend's cmplaints and shw empathy, but then I wuld try t shift the cnversatin in a directin that interests them and challenge them t take actin n their prblems.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何安静一个经常抱怨的人，并纠正了人们对抱怨的误解。抱怨并不总是负面的，有时可以改变不利情况，甚至是建立新关系，但经常抱怨会使情况更加糟糕，因为这些人从得到关注中获得满足感，解决问题并不是他们的目标。对于与经常抱怨的人交往，可以通过转移话题，重申抱怨的内容，鼓励他采取行动，并诚实地告诉他必须结束对话来处理好关系。
【40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段中“It gt s bad that Jane felt it was ruining the quality f their time tgether, s she finally spke up and helped her mther realize hw ften she cmplained. It turned ut that Jane’s interventin nt nly helped her mther-it als helped their relatinship.(事情变得如此糟糕，简觉得这破坏了他们相处质量，所以她终于说了出来，帮助她母亲意识到她经常抱怨。事实证明，简的干预不仅帮助了她的母亲，也帮助了他们的关系。)”可知，Jane Bth向母亲直言不讳说出了母亲经常抱怨，破坏了他们相处的质量，由此母亲意识到自己的抱怨。故答案为Jane Bth spke up t her mther and helped her realize hw ften she cmplained t stp her frm making lengthy cmplaints .
【41题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第二段中“In fact, even the kindest mst cnsiderate peple cmplain. And cmplaining desn’t always have a negative impact. Smetimes, cmplaining can change an unfavrable situatin int a mre desirable ne. (事实上，即使是最善良最体贴的人也会抱怨。抱怨并不总是有负面影响。有时候，抱怨可以把一个不利的情况变成一个更可取的情况。)”可知，人们对抱怨的误解在于只有消极的人才会抱怨，抱怨总是有消极的影响。故答案为The misbeliefs abut cmplaining are that nly negative peple cmplain and that cmplaining always has a negative impact.
【42题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段中“the satisfactin fr frequent cmplainers cmes frm attentin, s they are never satisfied with any suggestin t address the prblems that they highlight reslutin isn’t their aim.(经常抱怨的人的满足感来自于被关注，所以他们对任何解决问题的建议都不满意，他们强调解决问题不是他们的目标。)”可知，就经常抱怨的人来说，强调解决问题的任何建议都不是他们所追求的目标，而经常抱怨的人的满足来自于被关注，让抱怨的人所说的话得到关注是寻求解决问题的一种方式。故题干中的原句“Cmplaining frequently is a way that peple ask fr suggestins fr their prblems.(经常抱怨是人们寻求建议解决问题的一种方式。)”表述与原文不符，原文表达的信息是经常抱怨的人不是为了寻求建议解决问题，而是为了得到关注。故答案为Cmplaining frequently is a way that peple ask fr suggestins fr their prblems.
【43题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第五段“Change the subject.(改变话题。)”第六段“Summarize the cmplaint.(总结投诉。)”第七段“Challenge the persn t act.(挑战那个人去行动。)”第八段“Be hnest.(要诚实。)”第九段“it’s imprtant t talk abut the prblem.(谈论这个问题是很重要的。)”以及最后一段“Remember: Quieting a cnstant cmplainer can be beneficial t bth f yu.(记住：让老是抱怨的人安静下来对你们俩都有好处。)”可以根据文章中给出的方法来劝导朋友，言之有理即可。此处给出参考答案即我会先倾听朋友的抱怨，表现出同情，然后试着把谈话转移到他们感兴趣的方向，并挑战他们采取行动解决他们的问题。故答案为I wuld first listen t my friend's cmplaints and shw empathy, but then I wuld try t shift the cnversatin in a directin that interests them and challenge them t take actin n their prblems.

The philspher, Martin Buber, is mst knwn fr his wrk n “I-Thu/Yu” relatinships in which peple are pen, direct, mutually interested in each ther. In cntrast, “I-It” relatinships are thse in which we use the ther, like an bject, t slve ur prblems and fulfill ur needs and purpses.
It is nt ur fault that many f ur relatinships are r becme “It” relatinships because mst f what we feel, think and d is mtivated by uncnscius memries f hw t survive the envirnment int which we were brn. Thus, ne f the reasns we use ther peple t help us feel better abut urselves and cpe in the wrld is that using peple was nce necessary and it wrked. When we were small and helpless, “It” came and fed us, and held us, and set us n ur way. We didn’t have t reciprcate and care fr “It”. Even when the care and attentin f “It” was minimal r unpredictable, if we gt ut f childhd alive, smewhere alng the way “It” was invlved.
Freud called this stage f early life “primary narcissism”, which is ur instinct (本能) fr self-preservatin and is a nrmal part f ur develpment. While mst f us grw ut f it，we still hld a survival fear, which mtivates us t escape danger and t stay alive, and we all need this fear in healthy measure.
The prblem is that t many f us, t much f the time, are in a cnstant state f threat—and we ften dn’t knw it. We imagine peple are talking abut us behind ur backs, that we have cancer, that we are inadequate, and vulnerable t mre than ur share f bad luck. As ur brains have grwn in size and cmplexity, s has ur ability t scare urselves.
This causes many prblems. Fr example, ur stress levels increase, ur digestin is impaired and ur thinking becmes restricted. Our threat respnse stps any bdily functin, feeling, thught and behavir that might “waste” energy and detract frm fighting r escaping danger. Thus, when in threat, ur emtinal, cgnitive and behaviral range is significantly reduced.
And in this reduced state, ne f ur slutins is t find smene wh can save and cmfrt us. Instead f enabling us t be pen, direct and mutual, fear and anxiety lead us twards cnversatins and chices in ur relatins with thers that are rientated twards surviving—nt thriving (茁壮成长). Threat-mtivated relatinships are characterized by need, dependency, cntrl, demand, dishnesty, and self-interest.
We cannt frm the “I-Thu” relatinships that Buber speaks f until we have learned t ntice, cmfrt, and understand the emtins and patterns f ur threat brain. When in threat, we tend t use ther peple as bjects wh can save and prtect us, r wh we can blame fr ur prblems.
27. What des the underlined wrd “reciprcate” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Return the favur.B. Ask fr sme advice.
C. Cnvey an aplgy.D. Make sme cmments.
28. What can we learn abut “primary narcissism”?
A. It leads t ur survival fear.B. It is nrmal and usually temprary.
C. It impacts ur grwth negatively.D. It lays the fundatin fr Freud’s thery.
29. Which f the fllwing culd be an example f “I-It” relatinships?
A. Cmfrting an upset friend.B. Feeling srry fr yur mistakes.
C. Trying hard t be independent.D. Asking thers t take n yur task.
30. What wuld be the best title fr this passage?
A. Hw We Can Frm the “I-Thu” Relatinships
B. Hw We Can Get Out f the “I-It” Relatinships
C. Why We Treat Others as Objects Rather Than Individuals
D. What Helps Us Survive and Thrive in Early Stages f Life
【答案】27. A 28. B 29. D 30. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。 文章说明 了“I-It”关系，即我们利用对方来帮助解决我们的问题，并分析其形成的原因。
【27题详解】
词句猜测题。划线词前一句提到“When we were small and helpless, “It” came and fed us, and held us, and set us n ur way.” 作者认为在我们的童年成长过程中，“it”会来帮助我们，带我们走上正轨；划线词后提到“care fr(关心，照顾)”；and是并列连词，“reciprcate ”应该和“care fr”语义并列。由此可以猜测，“reciprcate”意思为“Return the favur（回报这份帮助，报答这份恩情。）”故选A。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。文章第三段中提到“Freud called this stage f early life “primary narcissism”, which is ur instinct (本能) fr self-preservatin and is a nrmal part f ur develpment.（弗洛伊德称之为生命早期阶段的“原始自恋”，这是我们的本能自我保护，是我们发展的正常的一部分。）”。根据“this stage f early life”可知， primary narcissism是指生命早期阶段存在的，是暂时性的；根据“a nrmal part f ur develpment”可知，primary narcissism是正常的。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。文章第二段中提到“ne f the reasns we use ther peple t help us feel better abut urselves and cpe in the wrld is that using peple was nce necessary and it wrked. When we were small and helpless, “It” came and fed us, and held us, and set us n ur way.”说明“I-It”关系是指我们利用他人来帮助我们。当我们弱小无助的时候，“它”会帮助我们，带我们走上正确的道路；文章第六段中提到“in this reduced state, ne f ur slutins is t find smene wh can save and cmfrt us.（在这种状态下，我们的解决办法之一就是找一个能拯救和安慰我们的人。）”。由此可知，“I-It”关系是指利用他人来帮助我们。由此可以推断，“Asking thers t take n yur task.（要求别人承担你的任务）”是“I-It”关系的例子。故选D。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段提到““I-It” relatinships are thse in which we use the ther, like an bject, t slve ur prblems and fulfill ur needs and purpses. ”说明“I-It”关系是指我们利用对方，（把对方）就像当作是一个物体，来解决我们的问题，满足我们的需求和目的；文章第二段提到“It is nt ur fault that many f ur relatinships are r becme “It” relatinships”，说明成为“It”关系并不是我们的错；第四段提到“The prblem is that t many f us, t much f the time, are in a cnstant state f threat（问题是，我们中的太多人，在太多的时间里，处于一种持续的威胁之中）”是分析“It”关系形成的原因；文章最后一段提到“When in threat, we tend t use ther peple as bjects wh can save and prtect us, r wh we can blame fr ur prblems.（当我们受到威胁时，我们倾向于把别人当作可以拯救和保护我们的东西，或者把我们的问题归咎于他们。）”由此可知，文章是说明什么是“I-It关系”，并分析其形成的原因。文章的标题应该是“Why We Treat Others as Objects Rather Than Individuals（为什么我们把别人当作物体而不是个人）。故选C。
D
Mve Over, Selfish Gene
Evlutin traditinally has a prblem with nice peple. If nly the fittest individuals survive, then thse wh are nice t thers at their wn expense will surely be weeded ut. Yet cperatin is widespread in nature, frm plants alerting each ther t danger t dlphins cperating t rund up fish.
A decades-ld idea called kin selectin can explain sme f this: if rganisms (生物) have enugh DNA in cmmn, then they can further their wn selfish genes by helping ne anther. Bees and ants have a system f reprductin which leaves clny members s clsely related that they act almst as a single super-rganism. And amng any sexually reprducing species, parental care helps individuals pass n their genes.
But kin selectin cannt explain why humans are s nice t strangers. One idea is that we have evlved t be super-cperative because, ver time, mre cperative grups have utcmpeted less cperative nes. But there generally isn’t enugh genetic variatin between grups t allw natural selectin t favr mre cperative nes.
Sme researchers think the slutin lies in an idea called cultural grup selectin. Frget shared genes, they argue. Selectin can favr cperative grups if the peple within them share enugh culture. The idea is cntrversial because t wrk it requires that grups remain culturally distinct. As critics pint ut, peple tend t migrate (迁移) between grups, which shuld hmgenize (使同质化) ideas and custms. Thse wh back the cncept cunter that grups have ways t maintain their distinct culture, including a prcess called nrm (准则) enfrcement. Put simply, if smene migrates int a new cultural grup, they are pressured int fllwing the lcal rules because failing t d s leads t punishment.
Earlier this year, Mathew and Handley at Arizna State University published a study testing the idea. They sampled 759 peple frm fur ethnic grups in Kenya wh cmpete intensively fr land, water and livestck. The pair estimated that genetic differences between individuals frm different grups was generally less than 15%. Cultural practices and beliefs varied much mre, by 10% t 20%. Peple cperated mst with members f their wn grup, as cultural grup selectin predicts, and t a lesser extent with members f ther grups whse nrms mst clsely matched their wn. That makes sense if culture rather than genetics is what matters. “I think this is ne f the mst explicit tests f cultural grup selectin thery s far,” says Mathew.
Nt everyne is persuaded. Krasnw at Harvard University sees n theretical flaw with the idea, but says that sme f his research undermines it. He has fund that peple dn’t just enfrce the rules within their grup, but als punish peple frm ther grups wh fail t fllw their wn grup’s nrms. Mathew cunters that it is reasnable t enfrce the nrms n utsiders as a step twards incrprating (使并入) them int yur cultural grup. “This is ften hw empires expand,” she says.
31. The example f bees and ants is used t ________.
A. highlight the significant rle f reprductin
B. demnstrate the efficiency f a super-rganism
C. reveal why parents care abut their selfish genes
D. explain the cause f rganisms helping ne anther

B. genetic variatins in the same cultural grup are small
C. cultural differences are weakened with peple migrating

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要通过提出疑问和探索答案来阐述文化在选择合作者时起着更重要的作用的观点。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“A decades-ld idea called kin selectin can explain sme f this: if rganisms (生物) have enugh DNA in cmmn, then they can further their wn selfish genes by helping ne anther.”（一个几十年前被称为“亲缘选择”的想法可以部分解释这一现象:如果生物体有足够多的共同DNA，那么它们可以通过帮助彼此来进一步发展自己自私的基因。）可推断，蜜蜂和蚂蚁的例子被用来解释生物体互相帮助的原因。故选D项。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The idea is cntrversial because t wrk it requires that grups remain culturally distinct.”（这个想法是有争议的，因为它要求各个群体保持文化差异。）可知，文化群体选择的理念能够发挥作用的前提是文化的特殊性能够通过一定的方法得以保留。故选D项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But kin selectin cannt explain why humans are s nice t strangers.”（但是亲缘选择不能解释为什么人类对陌生人如此友好。）第四段“Sme researchers think the slutin lies in an idea called cultural grup selectin.”（一些研究人员认为解决办法在于一种叫做文化群体选择的想法。）以及最后一段“Nt everyne is persuaded.”（并不是每个人都被说服了。）可推断，文章主要通过提出疑问和探索答案来发展的。故选C项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“That makes sense if culture rather than genetics is what matters. “I think this is ne f the mst explicit tests f cultural grup selectin thery s far,” says Mathew.”（如果重要的是文化而不是基因，那就说得通了。“我认为这是迄今为止对文化群体选择理论最明确的测试之一，”马修说。）可知，文化在选择合作者时起着更重要的作用。故选A项。

The Changing Landscape f the Music Business
The music industry is in the prcess f a great change. In the past decades, artists made mney thrugh physical sales f recrds, CDs, and cassettes. While in recent years, dwnlading sngs frm services such as Amazn r iTunes has becme the mst cmmn way fr peple t purchase music, and the whle idea f buying music t wn may be falling. T take its place are Internet apps that stream music directly t listeners n their smartphnes, tablets, r cmputers.____35____While this is great fr fans, wh nw have access t millins f sngs at the flick f a tuchscreen, it has shattered the traditinal mdel f hw an artist manages his r her career.
With music lvers increasingly mving away frm making ne-time purchases twards an all-yu-can-listen-t service, what is a hard-wrking artist t d? The main prblem facing many musicians is that payments-per-stream f a sng are much lwer than what an artist wuld receive frm a dwnlad. ____36____In Nvember f 2014, award-winning musician Taylr Swift pulled her entire music catalg frm Sptify, a ppular streaming app, claiming that their business mdel suggests that music des nt hld much wrth.
____37____They claim that it ffers smaller artists a chance fr their music t get heard by a wider audience. Brian Message, manager f the band Radihead, has cme ut in supprt f streaming services. He sees them as a way fr musicians and fans t interact.
Regardless f what artists may think abut this change in the music industry, there’s n arguing that they need t adapt in rder t make mney.____38____
Crprate spnsrship can be a risky ptin fr musicians. A band can make much mney by agreeing t prmte a prduct r license its music fr use in advertisements, but there are many ways that this can backfire. When bands wrk with businesses, they may lse the image they have wrked t create.____39____Artists must develp an image that appeals t their fans in rder t remain unique and authentic, r they risk striking .the wrng chrd, which culd leave them struggling t sustain careers in this new business landscape.
A. Others have welcmed the idea f streaming music.
B. Hwever, thse frms f media are quickly fading away.
C. Sme big-name artists have called attentin t the issue.
D. The rules culd be different fr smaller bands just starting ut.
E. Maintaining a fine image while wrking n a career is certainly tricky.
F. One majr shift is the grwth in partnership between artists and businesses.

根据后文“While this is great fr fans, wh nw have access t millins f sngs at the flick f a tuchscreen, it has shattered the traditinal mdel f hw an artist manages his r her career.（虽然这对歌迷来说是件好事，他们现在只需轻触触摸屏就可以访问数百万首歌曲，但它打破了艺术家管理自己职业生涯的传统模式。）”可猜测，划线句可描写这些应用程序的功能特点是如何打破艺术家管理自己职业生涯的传统模式的。G选项“These apps are available either as free versins r as mnthly subscriptin services.”（这些应用程序要么提供免费版本，要么提供月度订阅服务。）符合题意，且选项中的these apps呼应上文的Internet apps。故选G项。
【36题详解】
根据前文“The main prblem facing many musicians is that payments-per-stream f a sng are much lwer than what an artist wuld receive frm a dwnlad.（许多音乐家面临的主要问题是，每流歌曲的付费远远低于艺术家从下载中获得的费用。）”以及下文“In Nvember f 2014, award-winning musician Taylr Swift pulled her entire music catalg frm Sptify, a ppular streaming app, claiming that their business mdel suggests that music des nt hld much wrth.”（2014年11月，获奖音乐家泰勒·斯威夫特(Taylr Swift)从流行流媒体应用Sptify下架了她的全部音乐目录，声称Sptify的商业模式表明音乐没有多少价值。）可猜测，有些音乐家已经针对这个问题采取行动。C选项“Sme big-name artists have called attentin t the issue.”（一些大牌艺术家已经引起了人们对这个问题的关注。）符合题意，下文提到的Taylr Swift就是big-name artists中的一个。故选C项。
【37题详解】
根据下文“They claim that it ffers smaller artists a chance fr their music t get heard by a wider audience.（他们声称这为小艺术家提供了一个机会，让他们的音乐被更广泛的观众听到。）”可知，也有其他人赞同流媒体的发展。A选项“Others have welcmed the idea f streaming music.”（其他人则对流媒体音乐的想法表示欢迎。）符合题意，故选A项。
【38题详解】
根据上文“Regardless f what artists may think abut this change in the music industry, there’s n arguing that they need t adapt in rder t make mney.（不管艺术家们对音乐行业的这种变化有什么看法，毫无疑问，为了赚钱，他们需要适应。）”以及下文“Crprate spnsrship can be a risky ptin fr musicians.（对音乐家来说，企业赞助可能是一个冒险的选择。）”可知，这个变化与音乐家和企业赞助有关系。F选项“One majr shift is the grwth in partnership between artists and businesses.”（一个主要的变化是艺术家和企业之间的合作关系的增长。）符合题意，故选F项。
【39题详解】
根据下文“Artists must develp an image that appeals t their fans in rder t remain unique and authentic, r they risk striking the wrng chrd, which culd leave them struggling t sustain careers in this new business landscape.（为了保持独特和真实，艺术家们必须塑造出能吸引粉丝的形象，否则他们就有可能引起错误的共鸣，这可能会让他们在新的商业环境下难以维持职业生涯。）”可知，保持良好形象很重要也很困难。E选项“Maintaining a fine image while wrking n a career is certainly tricky.”（在事业上保持良好的形象当然是很棘手的。）符合题意，故选E项。

Quiet the Cmplainer
Fr years, Jane Bth’s mther made lengthy airing f cmplaints. It gt s bad that Jane felt it was ruining the quality f their time tgether, s she finally spke up and helped her mther realize hw ften she cmplained. It turned ut that Jane’s interventin nt nly helped her mther-it als helped their relatinship.
Yu may nt be as direct as Jane was t her mther, but there are ther ways t get a cnstant cmplainer t end. T be effective, it helps t crrect misbeliefs abut cmplaining in the first place. In fact, even the kindest mst cnsiderate peple cmplain. And cmplaining desn’t always have a negative impact. Smetimes, cmplaining can change an unfavrable situatin int a mre desirable ne. Other times, it can fster new relatinships with peple we dn’t knw well.
The prblems start when cmplaining becmes the default mde（默认模式）“When we have a need t be heard, we repeat urselves,” says Dian Killian, a life cach, “the satisfactin fr frequent cmplainers cmes frm attentin, s they are never satisfied with any suggestin t address the prblems that they highlight reslutin isn’t their aim.”
S, hw d yu quiet a cnstant cmplainer, fr the sake f yur health and his？
Change the subject. Sme cmplainers will switch gears if yu shift the cnversatin in a directin that interests them.
Summarize the cmplaint. If yur cmplainer keeps repeating himself, he may stp if yu demnstrate that yu’re listening.
Challenge the persn t act. When a cnstant cmplainer tells yu abut his latest prblem, ask nicely what he’s dne t imprve it.
Be hnest. When yu have things t d, tell the cmplainer that yu must cut the cnversatin shrt-especially if it’s smene wh’s cmplained t yu many times befre.
When smene stresses yu ut with lts f negativity, it’s imprtant t talk abut the prblem. Otherwise, if yu bttle up yur feelings and cntinue listening t repeated cmplaints, yu may grw annyed r start aviding the persn.
Remember: Quieting a cnstant cmplainer can be beneficial t bth f yu.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何安静一个经常抱怨的人，并纠正了人们对抱怨的误解。抱怨并不总是负面的，有时可以改变不利情况，甚至是建立新关系，但经常抱怨会使情况更加糟糕，因为这些人从得到关注中获得满足感，解决问题并不是他们的目标。对于与经常抱怨的人交往，可以通过转移话题，重申抱怨的内容，鼓励他采取行动，并诚实地告诉他必须结束对话来处理好关系。
【40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段中“It gt s bad that Jane felt it was ruining the quality f their time tgether, s she finally spke up and helped her mther realize hw ften she cmplained. It turned ut that Jane’s interventin nt nly helped her mther-it als helped their relatinship.(事情变得如此糟糕，简觉得这破坏了他们相处质量，所以她终于说了出来，帮助她母亲意识到她经常抱怨。事实证明，简的干预不仅帮助了她的母亲，也帮助了他们的关系。)”可知，Jane Bth向母亲直言不讳说出了母亲经常抱怨，破坏了他们相处的质量，由此母亲意识到自己的抱怨。故答案为Jane Bth spke up t her mther and helped her realize hw ften she cmplained t stp her frm making lengthy cmplaints .
【41题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第二段中“In fact, even the kindest mst cnsiderate peple cmplain. And cmplaining desn’t always have a negative impact. Smetimes, cmplaining can change an unfavrable situatin int a mre desirable ne. (事实上，即使是最善良最体贴的人也会抱怨。抱怨并不总是有负面影响。有时候，抱怨可以把一个不利的情况变成一个更可取的情况。)”可知，人们对抱怨的误解在于只有消极的人才会抱怨，抱怨总是有消极的影响。故答案为The misbeliefs abut cmplaining are that nly negative peple cmplain and that cmplaining always has a negative impact.
【42题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段中“the satisfactin fr frequent cmplainers cmes frm attentin, s they are never satisfied with any suggestin t address the prblems that they highlight reslutin isn’t their aim.(经常抱怨的人的满足感来自于被关注，所以他们对任何解决问题的建议都不满意，他们强调解决问题不是他们的目标。)”可知，就经常抱怨的人来说，强调解决问题的任何建议都不是他们所追求的目标，而经常抱怨的人的满足来自于被关注，让抱怨的人所说的话得到关注是寻求解决问题的一种方式。故题干中的原句“Cmplaining frequently is a way that peple ask fr suggestins fr their prblems.(经常抱怨是人们寻求建议解决问题的一种方式。)”表述与原文不符，原文表达的信息是经常抱怨的人不是为了寻求建议解决问题，而是为了得到关注。故答案为Cmplaining frequently is a way that peple ask fr suggestins fr their prblems.
【43题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第五段“Change the subject.(改变话题。)”第六段“Summarize the cmplaint.(总结投诉。)”第七段“Challenge the persn t act.(挑战那个人去行动。)”第八段“Be hnest.(要诚实。)”第九段“it’s imprtant t talk abut the prblem.(谈论这个问题是很重要的。)”以及最后一段“Remember: Quieting a cnstant cmplainer can be beneficial t bth f yu.(记住：让老是抱怨的人安静下来对你们俩都有好处。)”可以根据文章中给出的方法来劝导朋友，言之有理即可。此处给出参考答案即我会先倾听朋友的抱怨，表现出同情，然后试着把谈话转移到他们感兴趣的方向，并挑战他们采取行动解决他们的问题。故答案为I wuld first listen t my friend's cmplaints and shw empathy, but then I wuld try t shift the cnversatin in a directin that interests them and challenge them t take actin n their prblems.
