Modern media is awash in advertising clutter(杂乱), and who’s to blame? Modern audiences that hate conventional full-length and full-size ads.
Today’s consumers don’t like to pay for content, which ought to create a rich environment for advertisers. Yet these same consumers are prone to click or turn away when a conventional ad appears. The result is ad clutter.
YouTube ___1___a combination of full-length ads, skippable ads, lower-screen banners and display ads on the page alongside each video. Newspapers that once considered the front page important now ___2___run ads there.
Advertisers integrate plugs(推销) into content to frustrate digital video recorders, which allow viewers to watch programs on a delay and skip regular commercials. If you watch regional telecasts of baseball games, the commercial clutter is so ___3___. Ads are visible on the stadium wall behind the home-plate umpire(裁判). On-screen graphics include sponsor logos. And everything is a paid plug--“This call to the coach’s zone is brought to you by Verizon.”
According to the showbiz paper Variety, several streaming services are about to introduce a new twist: commercials that start running whenever a viewer pauses a program. Hulu intends to launch such ads this year. AT&T’s DirecTV and U-verse units will ___4___use similar technology to trigger full-motion commercials whenever a viewer tries to take a break.
There’s a lot at stake. According to Variety, National Football League(NFL) TV broadcasts generate an estimated $4.35 billion in ad revenue during the 17-week regular season. NFL ___5___are now loaded with mini commercials that pop up when there is a brief pause in the action, often in “double boxes” that show a view of the field in one frame and a(n)___6___in the other.
Interestingly with no “screen” to work with, radio is one medium that has tried for some time to buck the trend. Many commercial stations trade clutter for clusters--that is, a solid block of commercials running five minutes or more, followed by lengthy commercial-free ___7___of time.
But wherever a screen is involved, or a printed page, ad clutter is ___8___everywhere. Programmers and advertisers can’t really be expected to limit this; it’s a fact of business. Consumers, on the other hand, can opt for commercial-free content--if they’re willing to pay for it.
But getting limitless content without paying while also being ___9___heavy advertising intrusions is impossible. As media environment is permanently cluttered, audiences should be ___10___with what they wish for.
III. Reading Comprehension
Section A(15分)

I brought the article to class, where we discussed the benefits of examining the internal structure of flowers, relationships, current events, and short stories.

Section B (22分)
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
The World Is Our Classroom
Tonight, our family was going out to play under the full moon.
We first started going on full moon walks for ourselves, because my husband Todd and I, loved them and we needed these little doses of moonlight to stay happy and to function in society. But after we became parents, we did this for our children. We wanted Sierra and Bryce to see that there is much magic in the natural world and that most of it is accessible to anyone. We also wanted to show them that it was not necessary to travel far from home to have an adventure, learn, and experience something new. Nearly every month, our family went into the night to “play” by the full moon.
Once we arrived at our location that evening, Sierra and I stood holding hands, waiting to cheer the full moon in its rising. A thin sliver of the apricot (杏黄色) moon poked above the shape of the Blue Mountain Ridge. Everyone stood up and witnessed its rising. More of the moon came out until it turned into a brilliant orange sphere. Todd explained to Sierra and Bryce that the moon makes no light of its own, but simply acts like a mirror, reflecting the sunlight back to us long after the sun has sunk below the horizon.
“Does the moon’s face change?” Bryce asked. I told him that the moon rotates with the earth, but it does not spin on its axis like the earth does. The same side of the moon is always facing earth. We never see the other side, the far side of the moon. Sierra remarked that the moon looked larger and closer when it was rising. I explained that it is an optical illusion (视错觉) because it is so close to the horizon that the moon tricks our eyes into comparing it with nearby objects to create the impression of increased size.
Much of the knowledge that Todd and I shared with the kids had been learned from our past life experiences. If we did not possess the knowledge to explain and educate, we looked it up, either beforehand to enhance the experience, or afterwards, together, after we wondered and came up with a list of questions.
Sometimes all it takes is going outdoors and gazing up at the heavens.
26. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Going on a hike through the forest.
B. Going outdoors to watch full moon.
C. Visiting a museum to learn about space.
D. Traveling far from home to have an adventure.
27. Which of the following statements is true about the children on the family outing?
A. It was a rare chance for them to play under the full moon.
B. They felt forced to watch the moon coming out with their parents.
C. They remained curious and kept digging deeper about the moon.
D. They knew the answers to all the questions put up by their parents.
28. What can we learn from paragraph 5?
A. The author and her husband did not make much effort to teach their children.
B. The author left some questions for the children to get them thinking after each trip.
C. The author and her husband gained all the knowledge from their past experiences.
D. The author and her husband sometimes looked up information in advance to better educate their children.
29. Choose the best sentence to complete the last paragraph.
A. As we stared up at the sky, a brilliant shooting star raced across the sky.
B. Families have to spend a ton of money on entertainment in order to have fun and learn.
C. Opportunities to seek magical experiences and learning is right in your neighborhood.
D. The wonder state often occurs when you don’t quite understand what or why something is.
(B)
Using only a computer and a webcam, interactive animations allow learners to animate their world using Scratch and their own movements. We use a tool called video sensing that uses motion picked up from the webcam to start and engage with digital animations on the screen. The result is something not quite real life but fully immersive and imaginative.
Materials
For this activity, you will need a computer with a webcam and Scratch. That’s it! Consider how your environment or props could enhance your video sensing experience.
Tip: Consistent lighting is very helpful when making more complex video sensing projects.
Set-up Your Scratch Environment
Click the Add an Extension button at the bottom left-hand corner.
Choose Video Sensing to add video blocks.
Go back to the Scratch editor. Now there are additional video sensing blocks and the webcam is turned on.
Test Your Set-up
Make your first video sensing project with just two blocks. Start with the when video motion block to start your animation. The number inside this block can be between 1 and 100. A value of 1 is very sensitive to movement and a value of 100 is not very sensitive.
When movement is detected through the webcam, what happens next is up to you. Choose a sound, movement, or other reaction to create an interactive story.
Video Transparency
You may notice that when the video camera in Scratch turns on, your video will look faded. To add more saturation to your video, change the value from 50 to 100.
Once your environment is set-up, you’re ready to start interacting directly with your Scratch sprites (动画卡通人物)!Projects can be as varied as your learners＇ interests, support them in finding a project that’s meaningful to them. As one example, learners can use video sensing in Scratch to bring a book to life!
30. If Tom wants to make a personalized and complex video sensing project, he should take into account the following factors EXCEPT ______.
A. environment or props
B. consistent lighting
C. multiple sprites
D. his own interest
31. Which of the following statements about video sensing is true?
A. The When Video Motion block starts when it senses motion.
B. It is a tool to capture motion from the webcam.
C. Learners can use it to create animations based on their own movements.
D. With the When Video Motion block, users can adjust video transparency.
32. Which title best describes the project mentioned in the passage?
A. Digital Bling (闪亮的衣物)
B. Two Frame Animation
C. Scribbling (涂鸦)Machines
D. Animate Your World
(C)
The Happiness Myth
Happiness is not natural. It is a mere human construct. A state of contentment (let alone happiness) is discouraged by our genetic design because it would lower our guard against possible threats to our survival.
Chasing happiness is like chasing an elusive (难寻踪迹的) ghost, but the positive thinking industry claims to know its secrets. Self-help was popularized by Norman Vincent Peale, a colorful American pastor (牧师). He invented “positive thinking”, a concept now deeply embedded in our culture and steadily growing in influence. The global personal development industry was valued at $38. 28 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow at a rate of 5. 1%.
Popular films and books are full of supposedly inspirational statements about how all you need to do is believe in yourself and then you’ll be able to achieve anything in life. This is simply, and obviously, not true. I don’t think there is a need to explain that many obstacles and misfortunes in life are inevitable, or unmanageable. Our ancestors knew this, and many philosophical and religious traditions are based on the acceptance that being alive is a very challenging task, which comes with significant amounts of suffering. It goes without saying that we should do all we can to maximize our sense of wellbeing and minimize our suffering (as the “utilitarian” philosophers explain), but the end result cannot be a state of sustained bliss (极乐). We are not designed that way.
The self-help genre is not a homogeneous (同种类的) beast, however. It is, in fact, ironic how self-help books on happiness and those on how to make it big in life are put together in the same bookshop shelves, given that many of the former tell us that caring too much about the latter is the main obstacle to happiness.
The inevitable clash between mandatory (强制的) optimism and the realities of our existence comes with a heavy psychological price. It could be argued that positive psychology blames those who are suffering for their suffering, as it is based on the false idea that unhappiness is entirely avoidable. It follows therefore that an unhappy person must be inadequate and incompetent. Positive psychology encourages people who are struggling with a particular goal to persevere in the face of unfavorable odds, which is much more punishing psychologically in the long run than accepting defeat. I believe that coming to terms with life as it is, and not as the happiness industry tells us it could be, will make us happier, and we will feel more at peace with ourselves and with the world. Unfortunately, the devil always has the best tunes.
33. What is author’s main purpose in writing the first three paragraphs?
A. To analyze how personal development industry works.
B. To explain how unrealistic it is to pursue happiness in life.
C. To contrast modern people’s view of life with our ancestors’.
D. To review how the concept of happiness has changed over years.
34. It seems ironic to the author that putting self-help books on happiness and those on how to “make it big” together because .
A. they came from different publishers
B. they offer completely opposite values
C. their target readers belong to different age groups
D. they are the best-selling and slowest-selling books on the market
35. According to the article, which of the following quotes would the author most strongly disagree with?
A. Happiness is a choice, and so is suffering.
B. Happiness is ideal. It is the work of the imagination.
C. Happiness is a by-product. You cannot pursue it by itself.
D. The search for happiness is one of the chief sources of unhappiness.
36. What does the underlined sentence “the devil always has the best tunes” mean?
A. The core idea of the happiness industry is a beautiful lie.
B. The happiness industry has negative effects on the society.
C. Suffering contributes more to a meaningful life than happiness.
D. The one-sided interpretation of life proved more attractive to the public.
Section C
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Why Does Food Taste Bad on Airplanes?
How many times have you complained about airline food being bland (淡而无味) and tasteless? How many times have you stopped from ordering any food at all during a flight because we find it unappetizing? Sadly, we might have just been proven to simply be too critical. According to popularly accepted studies, the reason for the ‘bad food’ might just be a change in our ability to perceive taste.
The Fraunhofer Institute, a research organization based in Germany, conducted a study on why a dish that would be perfectly acceptable in a fine dining restaurant would seem bland while in the air. ___37___What is happening, then?
To maintain the pressure inside the cabin, airlines must closely regulate the air inside. This involves changing the composition of air that we breathe. The air inside airplane cabins is 15 percent drier than the air we breathe when we’re on the ground. ___38___ Scent actually starts to deteriorate the moment you step on a plane. The situation worsens once the airplane begins to climb, which makes passengers more dehydrated (脱水)and dry-mouthed. No one can deny that a glass of lemonade goes great with a meal on a sunny day, but it feels more acidic when you take a sip ten kilometers above the ground.
Although the cabin is pressurized to mimic the air pressure you would feel on the ground, it’s still less than the pressure we would normally experience at sea level. In this situation, our bodily fluids (体液) will move upwards and the nasal cavities (鼻腔) swell. The swelling messes with our taste buds, making the food taste unappealing. ___39___ Research has also shown that the lower temperature and air pressure on an airplane both make it harder to detect odorants, which are airborne molecules that stimulate the nose’s sensory cells and play an important role in the tasting process.
___40___ These collectively produce a rather constant ‘noise’ that can be as loud as 85 decibels (分贝), which is equivalent to city traffic. It might seem like a weird reason for food to taste bland, but researchers have found that loud noises inhibit our ability to appreciate sweet flavors.
A. Essentially, it’s harder to smell on an airplane, so it’s also harder to taste.
B. You might know how dining in such conditions feel, since we’ve all fought colds or flu in the past.
C. In an environment like this, your powers of taste and smell begin to drift away.
D. Since sweet and salty foods suffer the most, airlines have begun to add more salt and spice to give their food some added vigor.
E. In a mock aircraft cabin, researchers tried out ingredients at both sea level and in a pressurized condition and the differences in taste were startling.
F. Flight noises include vibrations from the air striking the hull (机身), as well as the roaring of the engines and winds.

I. Grammar
(A)
Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.
Wikipedia has come a long way since it started in 2001. With around 70, 000 volunteers editing in over 100 languages, it is by far the world’s ____41____(popular)reference site. However, its future is uncertain.
One of the biggest threats it faces is the rise of smartphones ____42____the dominant personal computing device. Wikipedia has always depended on contributors (撰稿人) who hunch over keyboards____43____(search) for references, discussing changes and writing articles with a special code. It’s simply too hard to use complex code on a tiny screen. The pool of potential Wikipedia editors____44____dry up as the number of mobile users keeps growing. The nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation, ____45____oversees(监督) Wikipedia’s operations, ____46____(look) for solutions for a while. For instance, the development of touch-screen tools allows editors to sift through (筛选)information and share content from their phones.
The tension runs through the community. Last year, the foundation took unprecedented steps of forcing the installation of new software on the German-language Wikipedia. The German editors____47____(show) their independence by resisting an earlier update to the site’s user interface(界面). ____48____the wishes of these experienced editors, the foundation installed a new method for viewing multimedia content and then set up a “superprotect” feature ____49____(prevent) stubborn administrators from changing it back.
Could the pressure from mobile users, and the internal tension, tear Wikipedia apart? A world without it seems unimaginable, but consider the fate of other online communities. Blogging, celebrated a decade ago as pioneering an exciting new form of personal writing, has decreased significantly in the social-media age.
These are challenges, but they can still_____50_____(solve). There is no other significant alternative to Wikipedia, and good will toward the project could hardly be higher. In an age of internet giants, the selflessness of websites is worth saving.

How Room Designs Affect Our Work and Feeling
Architects have long had the feeling that the place we live in can affect our thoughts, feeling and behaviour. But now scientists ____51____(give) this feeling an empirical (实证的) basis. They are discovering how ____52____(design) spaces that promote creativity, keep people focused, and lead to relaxation.
Researches show aspects of the physical environment ____53____influence creativity. In 2012, Joan Meyers-Levy reported that the height of a room’s ceiling affects how people think. Her research indicates that higher ceilings encourage people to think more freely, ____54____ (lead) them to make more abstract connections. Low ceilings, on the other hand, may inspire a more detailed outlook. Besides ceiling height, the view____55____(afford) by a building may influence an occupant’s ability to concentrate.
____56____(Use) nature to improve focus of attention ought to pay off academically, and it seems to, according to a study. Students in classrooms with unblocked views of at least 50 feet outside the window had higher scores on tests of vocabulary, language arts and maths than students____57____classrooms primarily overlooked roads and parking lots.
Recent study on room lighting design suggests that dim light helps people loosen up. ____58____that is true generally, keeping the light low during dinner or at parties could increase relaxation.
So far public buildings____59____(focus) on by scientists. “We have a very limited number of studies, so we are almost looking at the problem through a staw(吸管), ”architect David says. “How do you take answers to very specific questions and make broad use of them? That is ____60____we are all struggling with.”
II. Summary writing
61. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
What Causes Déja Vu?
It’s a frightening feeling: You walk into a place you know you’ve never been before but are overwhelmed by a sense of familiarity-a memory you can’t quite reach. Has this all happened before? Most people experience ‘this sensation, known as déjà vu, at some point in their lives. It’s a hard feeling to study, though, because it tends to arise spontaneously and be shaken off easily.
Déjà vu means “already seen” in French, a term possibly coined by French philosopher Émile Boirac. In a 2009 study, Cognitive psychologist Anne Cleary of Colorado State University and her colleagues found that viewing these sneakily similar scenes was more likely to cause feelings of déjà vu than viewing dissimilar scenes-suggesting that perhaps there is some environmental trigger for the brain to call out, “Hey, I recognize that!” even when it’s never seen the scene before.
While Cleary’s research shows that a slight familiarity can result in déjà vu, Akira Robert O’Connor, a cognitive psychologist at the University of St. Andrews says, in spontaneous déjà vu cases, it’s quite possible that the familiarity feeling is random. Supporting this random-misfire hypothesis is the fact that young people actually experience more déjà vu than older people. Younger brains are a little more excitable, more likely to fire more quickly rather than holding back, O’Connor says.
Older people may also be less adept (擅长的)fact-checkers when false feelings of familiarity arise, says Chris Moulin, a cognitive neuropsychologist at the Grenoble Alpes University. Older adults still recognize such false familiarity. “It’s not perhaps that older adults are not generating false familiarity, ” Moulin says. “It’s just that they don’t have, anymore, that certainty that what they’re experiencing is false. ”
This is a normal part of aging, not the conflation (合并)of déjà vu with reality that people with dementia (老年痴呆症)may experience. So enjoy the feeling of having felt it all before while it lasts, Generation Z.

Modern media is awash in advertising clutter(杂乱), and who’s to blame? Modern audiences that hate conventional full-length and full-size ads.
Today’s consumers don’t like to pay for content, which ought to create a rich environment for advertisers. Yet these same consumers are prone to click or turn away when a conventional ad appears. The result is ad clutter.
YouTube ___1___a combination of full-length ads, skippable ads, lower-screen banners and display ads on the page alongside each video. Newspapers that once considered the front page important now ___2___run ads there.
Advertisers integrate plugs(推销) into content to frustrate digital video recorders, which allow viewers to watch programs on a delay and skip regular commercials. If you watch regional telecasts of baseball games, the commercial clutter is so ___3___. Ads are visible on the stadium wall behind the home-plate umpire(裁判). On-screen graphics include sponsor logos. And everything is a paid plug--“This call to the coach’s zone is brought to you by Verizon.”
According to the showbiz paper Variety, several streaming services are about to introduce a new twist: commercials that start running whenever a viewer pauses a program. Hulu intends to launch such ads this year. AT&T’s DirecTV and U-verse units will ___4___use similar technology to trigger full-motion commercials whenever a viewer tries to take a break.

Interestingly with no “screen” to work with, radio is one medium that has tried for some time to buck the trend. Many commercial stations trade clutter for clusters--that is, a solid block of commercials running five minutes or more, followed by lengthy commercial-free ___7___of time.
But wherever a screen is involved, or a printed page, ad clutter is ___8___everywhere. Programmers and advertisers can’t really be expected to limit this; it’s a fact of business. Consumers, on the other hand, can opt for commercial-free content--if they’re willing to pay for it.
But getting limitless content without paying while also being ___9___heavy advertising intrusions is impossible. As media environment is permanently cluttered, audiences should be ___10___with what they wish for.

Section B (22分)
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
The World Is Our Classroom
Tonight, our family was going out to play under the full moon.
We first started going on full moon walks for ourselves, because my husband Todd and I, loved them and we needed these little doses of moonlight to stay happy and to function in society. But after we became parents, we did this for our children. We wanted Sierra and Bryce to see that there is much magic in the natural world and that most of it is accessible to anyone. We also wanted to show them that it was not necessary to travel far from home to have an adventure, learn, and experience something new. Nearly every month, our family went into the night to “play” by the full moon.
Once we arrived at our location that evening, Sierra and I stood holding hands, waiting to cheer the full moon in its rising. A thin sliver of the apricot (杏黄色) moon poked above the shape of the Blue Mountain Ridge. Everyone stood up and witnessed its rising. More of the moon came out until it turned into a brilliant orange sphere. Todd explained to Sierra and Bryce that the moon makes no light of its own, but simply acts like a mirror, reflecting the sunlight back to us long after the sun has sunk below the horizon.
“Does the moon’s face change?” Bryce asked. I told him that the moon rotates with the earth, but it does not spin on its axis like the earth does. The same side of the moon is always facing earth. We never see the other side, the far side of the moon. Sierra remarked that the moon looked larger and closer when it was rising. I explained that it is an optical illusion (视错觉) because it is so close to the horizon that the moon tricks our eyes into comparing it with nearby objects to create the impression of increased size.
Much of the knowledge that Todd and I shared with the kids had been learned from our past life experiences. If we did not possess the knowledge to explain and educate, we looked it up, either beforehand to enhance the experience, or afterwards, together, after we wondered and came up with a list of questions.
Sometimes all it takes is going outdoors and gazing up at the heavens.
26. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Going on a hike through the forest.
B. Going outdoors to watch full moon.
C. Visiting a museum to learn about space.
D. Traveling far from home to have an adventure.
27. Which of the following statements is true about the children on the family outing?
A. It was a rare chance for them to play under the full moon.
B. They felt forced to watch the moon coming out with their parents.
C. They remained curious and kept digging deeper about the moon.
D. They knew the answers to all the questions put up by their parents.
28. What can we learn from paragraph 5?
A. The author and her husband did not make much effort to teach their children.
B. The author left some questions for the children to get them thinking after each trip.
C. The author and her husband gained all the knowledge from their past experiences.
D. The author and her husband sometimes looked up information in advance to better educate their children.
29. Choose the best sentence to complete the last paragraph.
A. As we stared up at the sky, a brilliant shooting star raced across the sky.
B. Families have to spend a ton of money on entertainment in order to have fun and learn.
C. Opportunities to seek magical experiences and learning is right in your neighborhood.
D. The wonder state often occurs when you don’t quite understand what or why something is.
(B)
Using only a computer and a webcam, interactive animations allow learners to animate their world using Scratch and their own movements. We use a tool called video sensing that uses motion picked up from the webcam to start and engage with digital animations on the screen. The result is something not quite real life but fully immersive and imaginative.
Materials
For this activity, you will need a computer with a webcam and Scratch. That’s it! Consider how your environment or props could enhance your video sensing experience.
Tip: Consistent lighting is very helpful when making more complex video sensing projects.
Set-up Your Scratch Environment
Click the Add an Extension button at the bottom left-hand corner.
Choose Video Sensing to add video blocks.
Go back to the Scratch editor. Now there are additional video sensing blocks and the webcam is turned on.
Test Your Set-up
Make your first video sensing project with just two blocks. Start with the when video motion block to start your animation. The number inside this block can be between 1 and 100. A value of 1 is very sensitive to movement and a value of 100 is not very sensitive.
When movement is detected through the webcam, what happens next is up to you. Choose a sound, movement, or other reaction to create an interactive story.
Video Transparency
You may notice that when the video camera in Scratch turns on, your video will look faded. To add more saturation to your video, change the value from 50 to 100.
Once your environment is set-up, you’re ready to start interacting directly with your Scratch sprites (动画卡通人物)!Projects can be as varied as your learners＇ interests, support them in finding a project that’s meaningful to them. As one example, learners can use video sensing in Scratch to bring a book to life!
30. If Tom wants to make a personalized and complex video sensing project, he should take into account the following factors EXCEPT ______.
A. environment or props
B. consistent lighting
C. multiple sprites
D. his own interest
31. Which of the following statements about video sensing is true?
A. The When Video Motion block starts when it senses motion.
B. It is a tool to capture motion from the webcam.
C. Learners can use it to create animations based on their own movements.
D. With the When Video Motion block, users can adjust video transparency.
32. Which title best describes the project mentioned in the passage?
A. Digital Bling (闪亮的衣物)
B. Two Frame Animation
C. Scribbling (涂鸦)Machines
D. Animate Your World
(C)
The Happiness Myth
Happiness is not natural. It is a mere human construct. A state of contentment (let alone happiness) is discouraged by our genetic design because it would lower our guard against possible threats to our survival.
Chasing happiness is like chasing an elusive (难寻踪迹的) ghost, but the positive thinking industry claims to know its secrets. Self-help was popularized by Norman Vincent Peale, a colorful American pastor (牧师). He invented “positive thinking”, a concept now deeply embedded in our culture and steadily growing in influence. The global personal development industry was valued at $38. 28 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow at a rate of 5. 1%.
Popular films and books are full of supposedly inspirational statements about how all you need to do is believe in yourself and then you’ll be able to achieve anything in life. This is simply, and obviously, not true. I don’t think there is a need to explain that many obstacles and misfortunes in life are inevitable, or unmanageable. Our ancestors knew this, and many philosophical and religious traditions are based on the acceptance that being alive is a very challenging task, which comes with significant amounts of suffering. It goes without saying that we should do all we can to maximize our sense of wellbeing and minimize our suffering (as the “utilitarian” philosophers explain), but the end result cannot be a state of sustained bliss (极乐). We are not designed that way.
The self-help genre is not a homogeneous (同种类的) beast, however. It is, in fact, ironic how self-help books on happiness and those on how to make it big in life are put together in the same bookshop shelves, given that many of the former tell us that caring too much about the latter is the main obstacle to happiness.
The inevitable clash between mandatory (强制的) optimism and the realities of our existence comes with a heavy psychological price. It could be argued that positive psychology blames those who are suffering for their suffering, as it is based on the false idea that unhappiness is entirely avoidable. It follows therefore that an unhappy person must be inadequate and incompetent. Positive psychology encourages people who are struggling with a particular goal to persevere in the face of unfavorable odds, which is much more punishing psychologically in the long run than accepting defeat. I believe that coming to terms with life as it is, and not as the happiness industry tells us it could be, will make us happier, and we will feel more at peace with ourselves and with the world. Unfortunately, the devil always has the best tunes.
33. What is author’s main purpose in writing the first three paragraphs?
A. To analyze how personal development industry works.
B. To explain how unrealistic it is to pursue happiness in life.
C. To contrast modern people’s view of life with our ancestors’.
D. To review how the concept of happiness has changed over years.
34. It seems ironic to the author that putting self-help books on happiness and those on how to “make it big” together because .
A. they came from different publishers
B. they offer completely opposite values
C. their target readers belong to different age groups
D. they are the best-selling and slowest-selling books on the market
35. According to the article, which of the following quotes would the author most strongly disagree with?
A. Happiness is a choice, and so is suffering.
B. Happiness is ideal. It is the work of the imagination.
C. Happiness is a by-product. You cannot pursue it by itself.
D. The search for happiness is one of the chief sources of unhappiness.
36. What does the underlined sentence “the devil always has the best tunes” mean?
A. The core idea of the happiness industry is a beautiful lie.
B. The happiness industry has negative effects on the society.
C. Suffering contributes more to a meaningful life than happiness.
D. The one-sided interpretation of life proved more attractive to the public.
Section C
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Why Does Food Taste Bad on Airplanes?
How many times have you complained about airline food being bland (淡而无味) and tasteless? How many times have you stopped from ordering any food at all during a flight because we find it unappetizing? Sadly, we might have just been proven to simply be too critical. According to popularly accepted studies, the reason for the ‘bad food’ might just be a change in our ability to perceive taste.
The Fraunhofer Institute, a research organization based in Germany, conducted a study on why a dish that would be perfectly acceptable in a fine dining restaurant would seem bland while in the air. ___37___What is happening, then?
To maintain the pressure inside the cabin, airlines must closely regulate the air inside. This involves changing the composition of air that we breathe. The air inside airplane cabins is 15 percent drier than the air we breathe when we’re on the ground. ___38___ Scent actually starts to deteriorate the moment you step on a plane. The situation worsens once the airplane begins to climb, which makes passengers more dehydrated (脱水)and dry-mouthed. No one can deny that a glass of lemonade goes great with a meal on a sunny day, but it feels more acidic when you take a sip ten kilometers above the ground.
Although the cabin is pressurized to mimic the air pressure you would feel on the ground, it’s still less than the pressure we would normally experience at sea level. In this situation, our bodily fluids (体液) will move upwards and the nasal cavities (鼻腔) swell. The swelling messes with our taste buds, making the food taste unappealing. ___39___ Research has also shown that the lower temperature and air pressure on an airplane both make it harder to detect odorants, which are airborne molecules that stimulate the nose’s sensory cells and play an important role in the tasting process.
___40___ These collectively produce a rather constant ‘noise’ that can be as loud as 85 decibels (分贝), which is equivalent to city traffic. It might seem like a weird reason for food to taste bland, but researchers have found that loud noises inhibit our ability to appreciate sweet flavors.
A. Essentially, it’s harder to smell on an airplane, so it’s also harder to taste.
B. You might know how dining in such conditions feel, since we’ve all fought colds or flu in the past.
C. In an environment like this, your powers of taste and smell begin to drift away.
D. Since sweet and salty foods suffer the most, airlines have begun to add more salt and spice to give their food some added vigor.
E. In a mock aircraft cabin, researchers tried out ingredients at both sea level and in a pressurized condition and the differences in taste were startling.
F. Flight noises include vibrations from the air striking the hull (机身), as well as the roaring of the engines and winds.

Wikipedia has come a long way since it started in 2001. With around 70, 000 volunteers editing in over 100 languages, it is by far the world’s ____41____(popular)reference site. However, its future is uncertain.
One of the biggest threats it faces is the rise of smartphones ____42____the dominant personal computing device. Wikipedia has always depended on contributors (撰稿人) who hunch over keyboards____43____(search) for references, discussing changes and writing articles with a special code. It’s simply too hard to use complex code on a tiny screen. The pool of potential Wikipedia editors____44____dry up as the number of mobile users keeps growing. The nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation, ____45____oversees(监督) Wikipedia’s operations, ____46____(look) for solutions for a while. For instance, the development of touch-screen tools allows editors to sift through (筛选)information and share content from their phones.
The tension runs through the community. Last year, the foundation took unprecedented steps of forcing the installation of new software on the German-language Wikipedia. The German editors____47____(show) their independence by resisting an earlier update to the site’s user interface(界面). ____48____the wishes of these experienced editors, the foundation installed a new method for viewing multimedia content and then set up a “superprotect” feature ____49____(prevent) stubborn administrators from changing it back.
Could the pressure from mobile users, and the internal tension, tear Wikipedia apart? A world without it seems unimaginable, but consider the fate of other online communities. Blogging, celebrated a decade ago as pioneering an exciting new form of personal writing, has decreased significantly in the social-media age.
These are challenges, but they can still_____50_____(solve). There is no other significant alternative to Wikipedia, and good will toward the project could hardly be higher. In an age of internet giants, the selflessness of websites is worth saving.

How Room Designs Affect Our Work and Feeling
Architects have long had the feeling that the place we live in can affect our thoughts, feeling and behaviour. But now scientists ____51____(give) this feeling an empirical (实证的) basis. They are discovering how ____52____(design) spaces that promote creativity, keep people focused, and lead to relaxation.
Researches show aspects of the physical environment ____53____influence creativity. In 2012, Joan Meyers-Levy reported that the height of a room’s ceiling affects how people think.

Low ceilings, on the other hand, may inspire a more detailed outlook. Besides ceiling height, the view____55____(afford) by a building may influence an occupant’s ability to concentrate.
____56____(Use) nature to improve focus of attention ought to pay off academically, and it seems to, according to a study. Students in classrooms with unblocked views of at least 50 feet outside the window had higher scores on tests of vocabulary, language arts and maths than students____57____classrooms primarily overlooked roads and parking lots.
Recent study on room lighting design suggests that dim light helps people loosen up. ____58____that is true generally, keeping the light low during dinner or at parties could increase relaxation.
So far public buildings____59____(focus) on by scientists. “We have a very limited number of studies, so we are almost looking at the problem through a staw(吸管), ”architect David says. “How do you take answers to very specific questions and make broad use of them?

II. Summary writing
61. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
What Causes Déja Vu?
It’s a frightening feeling: You walk into a place you know you’ve never been before but are overwhelmed by a sense of familiarity-a memory you can’t quite reach. Has this all happened before? Most people experience ‘this sensation, known as déjà vu, at some point in their lives. It’s a hard feeling to study, though, because it tends to arise spontaneously and be shaken off easily.
Déjà vu means “already seen” in French, a term possibly coined by French philosopher Émile Boirac. In a 2009 study, Cognitive psychologist Anne Cleary of Colorado State University and her colleagues found that viewing these sneakily similar scenes was more likely to cause feelings of déjà vu than viewing dissimilar scenes-suggesting that perhaps there is some environmental trigger for the brain to call out, “Hey, I recognize that!” even when it’s never seen the scene before.
While Cleary’s research shows that a slight familiarity can result in déjà vu, Akira Robert O’Connor, a cognitive psychologist at the University of St. Andrews says, in spontaneous déjà vu cases, it’s quite possible that the familiarity feeling is random. Supporting this random-misfire hypothesis is the fact that young people actually experience more déjà vu than older people. Younger brains are a little more excitable, more likely to fire more quickly rather than holding back, O’Connor says.
Older people may also be less adept (擅长的)fact-checkers when false feelings of familiarity arise, says Chris Moulin, a cognitive neuropsychologist at the Grenoble Alpes University. Older adults still recognize such false familiarity. “It’s not perhaps that older adults are not generating false familiarity, ” Moulin says. “It’s just that they don’t have, anymore, that certainty that what they’re experiencing is false. ”
This is a normal part of aging, not the conflation (合并)of déjà vu with reality that people with dementia (老年痴呆症)may experience. So enjoy the feeling of having felt it all before while it lasts, Generation Z.
