When I was nine years old，I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish.” I remember being even more upset then because “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?
As I got a little older, I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids（眼睑）and the sun hurts their eyes...The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.
When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like salespeople.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.
24. Why was the author upset in the fishing trips when he was nine?
A. He could not catch a fish. B. His father was not patient with him.
C. His father did not teach him fishing. D. He could not influence a fish as his father did.
25. What did the author’s father really mean?
A. To read about fish. B. To learn fishing only by oneself.
C. To understand what fish think. D. To study fishing in many ways.
26. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found______.
A. in deep water on sunny days B. in deep water on cloudy days
C. in shallow water under sunlight D. in shallow water under waterside trees
27. This passage most likely comes from______.
A. a fishing guide B. a popular sales book
C. a novel on childhood D. a millionaire’s biography
C
Ever wonder how your brain works when making decisions bigger than medium spicy salad, like buying a car or accepting a job offer? Researchers from the University of Dundee in Scotland conducted a study that clarifies why you may want to have a small bite before making that big decision.
Benjamin Vincent from the University of Dundee’s Psychology department and his co-author Jordan Skyrnka tested 50 people two times: once when they followed their normal eating patterns and once when they did not eat anything during the day. Using three different types of rewards（food, money, and song downloads）, the team discovered when presented with the choice of receiving the reward now vs. double the award at some point in the future，participants would usually volunteer to wait for 35 days to earn a larger bounty, but when they were hungry, they said they would only wait three days.
“We wanted to know whether being in a state of hunger had a specific effect on how you make decisions only relating to food or if it had broader effects, and this research suggests decisionmaking gets more present-focused when people are hungry,” Vincent said in a story about the study on the university’s website. “You would predict that hunger would impact people’s preferences relating to food, but it is not yet clear why people get more present-focused for completely unrelated rewards. Hunger is so common that it is important to understand the non-obvious ways in which our preferences and decisions may be affected by it,” he said.
In an earlier study of the subject by a team at Cambridge University in England, the researchers noted that serotonin（血清素）plays a major role in the decision-making process. “Since the raw material for making serotonin—an amino acid called tryptophan—only comes from diet, levels of the chemical decline between meals,” reports a piece in the Telegraph about the study.
“This can lead to aggressiveness and impulsiveness（冲动）,” say the team.
28. How did Benjamin Vincent and Jordan Skyrnka carry out their research?
A. By analyzing reasons. B. By making comparison.
C. By giving examples. D. By filling questionnaires.
29. The underlined word “bounty” in Paragraph 2 can be best replaced by
A. bonus B. salary C. income D. fortune
30. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. What should be eaten to avoid aggressiveness.
B. How can we get enough serotonin from our diet.
C. What other factors will influence one’s decision-making.
D. How does a chemical function in the course of making a decision.
31. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Get Enough Serotonin from Your Diet B. Being Hungry Makes a Wrong Decision
C. Having a Small Bite Makes a Wise Man D. Decision-making with Larger Rewards
D
An artificial intelligence that navigates its environment much like mammals could help solve a mystery about our own internal GPS.
Equipped with virtual versions of specialized brain nerve cells called grid（网格）cells，the AI could easily solve and plan new routes through virtual mazes（迷宫）. That performance，described online May 9 in Nature, suggests the grid cells in animal brains play a key role in path planning.
“This is a big step forward in understanding our own navigational neural circuit,”says Ingmar Kanitscheider, a computational neuroscientist. The University of Texas at Austin is not involved in the work. The discovery that rats track their location with the help of grid cells earned a Norwegian research team the 2014 Nobel Prize in physiology to medicine. Neuroscientists suspected these cells, which have also been found in humans，might help not only give mammals an internal coordinate（协同）system, but also plan direct paths between points.
To test that idea, neuroscientist Caswell Barry at University College London, along with colleagues at Google DeepMind, created an AI that contained virtual nerve cells, or neurons, whose activity resembled that of real grid cells. The researchers trained this AI to navigate virtual mazes by giving the system reward signals when it reached its destination.
The AI bested a human expert player at solving the virtual mazes, and proved savvier than other artificial neural networks in planning ways through mazes larger than those traversed（横穿的）during its training. When a door opened to provide a shortcut through the maze, the new AI took the more direct route. By contrast, AI systems without artificial grid cells ignored the open door and took the long way around.
These findings support the idea that grid cells do more than help mammals orient themselves in time and space; they also help animals plan the most straightforward direction to destinations. AI also appears to be “a very powerful tool” for testing other neuroscience theories，Barry says. He and his colleagues suggest that virtual experiments on artificial neural networks that imitate different regions of the brain may eventually replace some animal testing.
But there are limitations to using AI to study the brain. Because the system is meant to learn on its own, researchers can’t tell why the system made a specific decision, says neuroscientist Francesco Savelli at Johns Hopkings University, whose commentary also appears online May 9 in Nature.
32. What’s the function of the virtual grid cells?
A. Helping animals adapt to the environment.
B. Controlling the growth of nerve cells.
C. Assisting the AI in finding a way-out.
D. Promoting the cooperation between AI robots.
33. The underlined word “sawier” in Paragraph 5 most probably means______.
A. slower B. nearer C. earlier D. wiser
34. We can infer from Paragraph 6 that______.
A. animals axe as intelligent as humans
B. animal testing on the brain will be reduced in future
C. humans will be equipped with the virtual grid cells
D. grid cells are more important than other nerve cells
35. What is Francesco Savelli unclear about?
A. How the Al system works.
B. What AI can learn on its own.
C. How effective reward signals will work on a robot.
D. The relationship between different areas of the brain.

经告诉我的话，而我也开始明白自己要像消费者一样去思考。
24. A 【解析】细节理解题根据第一段中的“But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything.” 可知，作者觉得难过的是，父亲能钓到很多鱼，而他却什么也钓不到。故选A。
25. D【解析】逻辑推理题。根据第二段中的“The more I understood fish，the more I became effective at finding and catching them.（我对鱼了解得越多，就越能有效地找到并捕获它们。）”可知，此处父亲的意思是要我去了解钓鱼的方法。故选D。
26. D【解析】逻辑推理题。根据第二段中的“I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer.（我了解到鱼是冷血动物，因此对水温很敏感。这就是为什么鱼喜欢浅水而不喜欢深水的原因，因为浅水比较温暖。可知，更容易在浅水里发现鱼；又依据“Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids（眼睑）and the sun hurts their eyes. . .（然而，鱼没有眼睑，阳光伤害它们的眼睛……）”所以至又要待在不刺眼
的地方。分析选项，只有D项符合，故选D。

Here are some Internet safety tips to help you avoid getting into trouble online and offline.
First of all, be careful of what you download. Some programs or apps are designed to steal your personal information, so don’t download apps that look suspicious or come from a site you don’t trust. Second, choose strong passwords. Passwords are one of the biggest weak spots in the whole Internet security structure. However, people always choose easy ones to remember, which are also easy for others to guess. Select a strong password that is unique and complex so that it is harder for criminals to work out. What’s more, make online purchases from secure sites. Any time you make a purchase online, you need to provide credit card or bank account information. You should only supply this information to sites that provide secure connections. AdditionaIly, be careful of what you post. Any comment or image you post online may stay online forever because removing the original does not remove any copies that other people made. There is no way for you to “take back” a remark you wish you hadn’t made. Don’t put anything online that you wouldn’t want someone to see. Finally, keep your antivirus program up-to-date. Be sure to keep your operating system and applications updated. They can provide an important security protection.
Keep these basic safety tips in mind and you’ll avoid many of the unpleasant surprises that hide online because of carelessness.
