“She’s awfully cute.” That’s what Marty Ginsburg thught when he met his fellw Crnell student Ruth Bader in 1950. Sn he nticed smething else. “He thught she was awfully smart,” says their sn James Ginsburg. “Mm said Dad was the nly by wh dated her,” James says, “wh cared that she had a brain.”
That brain, f curse, wuld take her all the way t the Supreme Curt. But while the wrld knws abut Ruth Bader Ginsburg — the secnd wman t be appinted as U.S. Supreme Curt justice — the stry f the grand lve affair between Ruth and Marty hasn’t been publicly tld until nw.
As Ruth became an expert in gender-discriminatin law, she and Marty were a living example f what equality f the sexes was all abut. “I did the cking, and she did the thinking,” Marty ften jked. But, as Ruth saw it, “Withut him, I wuld nt have gained a seat n the Supreme Curt.”
The tests t the cuple’s lve came early and ften. When they were still in law schl, Marty gt cancer. While he underwent radiatin, Ruth rganized his friends t take class ntes. “He’d get up arund midnight and then eat whatever fd I had cked fr him,” Ruth said. Marty survived.
After Ruth was appinted t the U.S. Curt f Appeals in 1980, Marty fllwed her t D.C. “He was always trying t get her t leave the ffice and cme hme fr dinner,” says NPR legal crrespndent Nina Ttenberg. And when she gt the nminatin (提名) as a Justice, Marty tk her shpping t pick ut suits fr her cnfirmatin hearings. He als jined the curt’s “spuses (配偶) club”, because he wanted t ck when they all gt tgether.
Their lve tk n a new meaning in 2010, after a tumr (肿瘤) was fund in Marty and Ruth became his caretaker again, staying up with him thrugh the night. In his final days Marty left his wife a nte: “Yu are the nly persn I have lved in my life and I have admired yu since the day we first met at Crnell 56 years ag.” He died 10 days later. The next day Ruth returned t wrk n the bench. Asked why, she had a simple answer: “Marty wuld have wanted it that way.”
24. In Ruth’s eyes what makes Marty different frm the ther men dating her?
A. He culd d cking fr her.
B. He was fascinated by her wisdm.
C. He helped her prmte sexual equality.
D. He came frm the same university as she did.

C.wrk lng hurs D. mve n withut him
27. What culd be the best title f the passage?

One evening in February 2020, a student named Paula Ceely brught her car t a stp n a remte rad in Wales. She gt ut t pen a metal gate that blcked her path. That’s when she heard the whistle sunded by the driver f a train. Her Renault Cli was parked acrss a railway line. Secnds later, she watched the train drag her car almst a kilmetre dwn the railway tracks.
Ceely’s near miss made the news because she blamed it n her GPS device (导航仪). She had never driven the rute befre. It was dark and raining heavily. Ceely was relying n her GPS, but it made n mentin f the crssing. “I put my cmplete trust in the device and it led me right int the path f a speeding train,” she tld the BBC.
Wh is t blame here? Rick Stevensn, wh tells Ceely’s stry in his bk When Machines Fail Us, pints the finger at the limitatins f technlgy. We put ur faith in digital devices, he says, but ur digital helpers are t ften nt up t the jb. They are filled with small prblems. And it’s nt just GPS devices: Stevensn takes us n a tur f digital disasters invlving everything frm mbile phnes t wireless keybards.
The prblem with his argument in the bk is that it’s nt clear why he nly fcuses n digital technlgy, while there may be a number f ther pssible causes. A map-maker might have left the crssing ff a paper map. Maybe we shuld blame Ceely fr nt paying attentin. Perhaps the railway authrities are at fault fr pr signaling system. Or maybe smene has studied the relative dangers and wrked ut that there really is smething specific wrng with the GPS equipment. But Stevensn desn’t say.
It’s a prblem that runs thrugh the bk. In a sectin n cars, Stevensn gives an accunt f the advanced techniques that criminals use t defeat cmputer-based lcking systems fr cars. He ffers tw independent sets f figures n car theft; bth shw a small rise in sme parts f the cuntry. He says that nce again nt all new lcks have prved reliable. Perhaps, but maybe it’s als due t the shrtage f plicemen n the streets. Or changing scial circumstances. Or sme cmbinatin f these factrs .
The game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and cmplex. It is shaped by ecnmics and psychlgy and the cultures we live in. Smewhere in the mix f thse frces there may be a way fr a wiser use f technlgy.
If there is such a way, it shuld invlve mre than just an awareness f the shrtcmings f ur machines. After all, we have lived with them fr thusands f years. They have prbably been fling us fr just as lng.
28. What did Paula Ceely think was the cause f her accident?
A. She was nt familiar with the rad.
B. It was dark and raining heavily then.
C. The railway wrkers failed t give the signal.
D. Her GPS device didn’t tell her abut the crssing.
29. Which f the fllwing wuld Rick Stevensn mst prbably agree with?
A. Mdern technlgy is what we can’t live withut.
B. Digital technlgy ften falls shrt f ur expectatin.
C. Digital devices are mre reliable than they used t be.
D. GPS errr is nt the nly cause fr Ceely’s accident.
30. In the writer’s pinin, Stevensn’s argument is ________.
A. ne-sided B. reasnable C. puzzlingD. well-based
31. What is the real cncern f the writer f this article?
A. The majr causes f traffic accidents and car thefts.
B. The relatinship between humans and technlgy.
C. The shrtcmings f digital devices we use.
D. The human unawareness f technical prblems.
D
Mre than half f the state’s public schl students are in districts ffering remte learning, but state Superintendent (主管) f Public Institutin, Chris Reykdal acknwledged t state lawmakers that distance learning is nt wrking fr a lt f kids. He is als wrried abut the mental health impacts f distance learning n kids.
“They’re failing a lt. And it turns ut, in the beginning, we thught it was abut devices and cnnectivity. They’re failing because they’re nt engaged,” Reykdal said.
Reykdal’s assessment cmes at a critical time, with an increasing number f calls frm parents pushing fr schl districts t bring students back fr face-t-face learning. They say their children are lsing mtivatin, falling behind academically.
State fficials have been in the prcess f cnsidering revising the guidance t encurage in-persn learning, because research has s far shwn that schls d nt appear t encurage cmmunity spread f crnavirus.
Lawmakers als heard frm several schl district superintendents. One f them, Art Jarvis f the Peninsula Schl District, eched what Reykdal said abut students struggling with remte learning. “We’re seeing mre evidence that scial-emtinal issues ranging frm disengagement with the schls t suicidal tendencies that cme with it need t be addressed.” Jarvis said.
He urged lawmakers t preserve educatin funding even thugh statewide public schl enrllment (入学) has drpped 37 percent this schl year, which wuld mean a cut f abut $500 millin in state funding. The Peninsula district is prviding in-persn learning fr students in kindergarten and first grade, but he said it’s expensive t staff that.
“In spite f lst enrllment in kindergarten and first grade, we had t add 11 teaching psitins fr K-1 in the Peninsula Schl District at a cst f ver $1 millin. And the added teachers are necessary t keep student grups small t allw fr physical distancing.” Jarvis said.
32. What mainly leads t students’ pr academic perfrmance in distance learning?
A. Devices and cnnectivity.B. Disengagement with schls.
C. Pr mental health.D. Lack f learning materials.
33. Which f the fllwing is TRUE accrding t the passage?
A. Students are unwilling t g back t schl.
B. Lawmakers are in favr f prviding distance learning.
C. Parents are lking frward t kids’ returning t schl.
D. State fficials frbid in-persn learning fr students’ health.
34. What des the underlined wrd “it” in Paragraph 5 refer t?
A. Remte learning. B. In-persn learning.
C. Assessment. D. Evidence.
35. What Jarvis said in the last paragraph is intended t ________.
A. encurage mre kids t enrll in schl
B. call n parents t dnate mney t schls

Three Ways t Prtect Yurself Frm Tday’s Unreal News
Nwadays with s much news available, many peple cnsume media in an autmatic, uncnscius (无意识的) state — similar t knwing yu drve hme but nt being able t recall the trip. 36 . These strategies can help yu becme wiser news cnsumers in three simple steps.
Seek ut yur wn news
Like mst peple, yu prbably get a fair amunt f yur news frm scial media. Yu shuld change that. Their gal is t maximize the time yu spend n their sites and apps, getting advertising incme. That means instead f presenting yu with the mst imprtant news f the day, scial media feed yu what will hld yur attentin. 37 . These rganizatins actually prduce news, usually in the spirit f serving the public interest.
Use basic mathematics
Untrustwrthy news ften use sme data t make unreal claims. 38 . Fr example, a widely spread rumur (谣言) falsely claimed 10,150 Americans were killed by illegal immigrants（移民）in 2019. On the surface, it’s hard t knw whether it is true, but ne way t start is t think abut finding ut hw many ttal murders there were in the US in 2019.
39
Humans are biased (片面的) t believe what’s in frnt f their eyes. Vide cntent is cnsidered mre trustwrthy — even thugh sme vides can be very misleading. 40 . Seeing and hearing shuld nt necessarily be believing. Treat vide cntent with just as much dubt as news text, checking any facts with news frm a trusted surce.
A. Watch ut fr biases
B. Believe vide cntent
C. Yu’ll see a mre cmplete range f infrmatin
D. Think carefully abut hw yu determine smething is true
E. Instead, regularly visit trusted news apps and news websites directly
F. Simple mathematical calculatins can help yu better spt false data
G. Hwever, yu can develp habits t cntrl yur news intake mre cnsciusly
