Parents ften think that their kids shuld be gd at studies and d well in sprts. That’s usually the case because parents feel that culd get their children admissin t tp clleges. Hwever, Melissa and Mark Wimmer think differently.
Their 14-year-ld sn, Mike, is a prdigy. He is a member f Mensa, which is the wrld’s tp IQ club. He cmpleted his high schl, assciate’s and bachelr’s degrees all in three years. That’s nt all. He als ran tw tech cmpanies, funded a third ne that wrks twards cntrlling the ppulatin f linfish, an invasive （入侵的） species.
But the parents are prud that they were able t help Mike with his scial skills alng with his intellectual skills. Melissa tld CNBC that peple expected “Yung Sheldn” befre they met her sn. Yung Sheldn is a televisin shw abut a child talent wh is an indr man and lacks scial skills. “But nce they talk t Mike, they understand that he’s just a nrmal 14-year-ld that happens t be able t d amazing things,” said Melissa.
Mark and Melissa gt t knw abut their child’s intelligence when he entered preschl. A child psychlgist tld them that their sn wuld need a different curse t supprt his fast-track develpment. Many parents aren’t cmfrtable with putting their children with 18-year-lds, but Mike’s parents saw the value in letting their child g thrugh it. “I wanted him t be scial and be able t deal with all the different persnalities in the classrms with lder children,” said Melissa.
The parents shared that they were able t d this by letting Mike find his wn vice and put it t use. “We let him rder fd when he’s 3 r 4 frm the waiter r waitress and intrduce himself t peple. Thse kinds f things are dne t encurage him t engage with everyne else and be mre cmfrtable talking t thers utside f ur envirnment,” said Melissa.
Thanks t his parents, Mike has learned t get alng with yung and ld alike.

Upskilling is the future—but it must wrk fr everyne
Autmatin and jb replacement will be ne f the mst significant challenges fr the glbal ecnmy f the cming decades. A 2017 Mckinsey reprt established that 375 millin wrkers will need t switch ccupatinal categries by 2030. The Wrld Ecnmic Frum suggests that by 2022, autmatin will replace 75 millin jbs glbally—but create 133 millin new nes.
Research int the likelihd that a jb will be impacted by digitizatin has largely fcused n the “autmatability” f the rle and the fllwing ecnmic reginal and plitical effects f this. What this research desn’t take int accunt is smething mre imprtant fr the millins f taxi drivers and retail wrkers acrss the glbe: their likelihd f being able t change t anther jb that isn’t autmatable. Recent research suggests that the answer t this may be that the skills that enable wrkers t mve up the ladder t mre cmplex rles within their current areas might be less imprtant than brader skills that will enable wrkers t change acrss divisins.
In July, Amazn annunced that it wuld spend $70millin retraining arund 30% f its 300,00US wrkfrce. While praisewrthy, it will be interesting t see the utcme. In the UK, the Natinal Retraining Scheme has largely been led by emplyers, meaning that thse n zer-hurs cntracts and part-time wrkers—ften lw-skilled—will miss ut. Gvernance will be a crucial element f ensuring that such schemes fcus n individuals and life-lng learning, rather than upskilling wrkers int rles that will sn als face autmatin.
Accrding t the Mckinsey reprt, “grwing awareness f the scale f the task ahead has yet t translate int actin. Public spending n labur-frce training and supprt has fallen fr years in mst member cuntries f the Organisatin fr Ecnmic C-Operatin and Develpment,” which impacts mre than just the lw-skilled and prly cmpensated.
The glbal impact f autmatin is als put int relief by research demnstrating that, between 1988 and 2015, incme inequality increased thrughut the wrld. Billins f peple d nt have the essentials f life as defined by the UN Sustainable Develpment gals.
Alngside climate change, autmatin is arguably tech’s biggest challenge. As with glbalizatin, gvernments and emplyers—and us wrkers—ignre its ptential cnsequences at risk t urselves.
28. It can be knwn frm Paragraph 2 that .
A. recent research has fund ways t face autmatin
B. brad skills are f great significance in changing jbs
C. reginal ecnmy can affect the autmatability f a jb
D. it is even harder fr wrkers t mve up the scial ladder
29. What is the authr’s attitude twards retraining prgrams?
A. Supprtive. B. Critical. C. Skeptical. D. Sympathetic.
30. Accrding t the authr, what is ne cnsequence f autmatin?
A. Less spending n training. B. A slwdwn f glbalizatin.
C. Scial unrest and instability. D. An increase in incme inequality.
31. The passage is written t _____________ .
A. argue the urgency f creating new jbs
B. cmpare glbalizatin with autmatin
C. analyze the autmatability f certain jbs
D. stress the imprtance f upskilling wrkers
D
In the 1770s, an English dctr called Edward Jenner gave his gardener’s sn cwpx （牛痘） and then deliberately infected him with smallpx （天花） t test his assumptin that peple wh were frequently expsed t cwpx, a similar but less severe virus, wuld avid catching smallpx. It wrked and cwpx as the vaccine （疫苗） was highly effective. “Vaccinatin”, frm the Latin wrd fr cw, sn became cmmnplace.
Challenge trials are frms f research where, rather than relying n data frm natural infectins, we intentinally expse smene t a disease in rder t test the effectiveness f a vaccine r treatment. Things have changed a lt since Jenner’s time, f curse, when it was nt uncmmn fr dctrs t cnduct this kind f research. Even s, there’s the cntinuus sense that there’s smething immral abut making smene ill n purpse.
But this shuldn’t blind us t the extrardinary pwer f challenge trials. They culd becme increasingly imprtant weapns in the medical research, in a situatin where vaccine technlgy is advancing and the threat f diseases jumping frm animals int human beings is increasing.
Much has been dne t reduce the risks f challenge trials. Like respiratry syncytial virus (RSV), researchers have invlved adults wh are at a lw risk f severe illness. These acts have already cut dwn a massive range f vaccine candidates. With their help, the wrld will sn have the first vaccines against RSV, which kills tens f thusands f newbrn babies each year. But nt all diseases are like these nes. We dn’t always knw the dangers vlunteers might face; we dn’t always have treatments ready. What then?
We culd, f curse, just avid these questins entirely, and rely n ther types f research. But that desn’t always wrk: smetimes, animal testing is tricky and uninfrmative, because the disease desn’t develp in the same way as it wuld in humans. In cntrast, challenge trials can be deeply infrmative within weeks, with far fewer vlunteers. And the benefits can be surprisingly high. Take the latest pandemic. At the end f last year, as the number f deaths is estimated t have reached abut 17. 8 millin, it’s als estimated that 20 millin had been saved by vaccines. In the years t cme, they will hpefully save millins mre.
In rder t make sure we are as prtected as pssible frm current and future threats, we shuld try t get rid f the misbelief in challenge trials, making them a mre familiar part f ur tl kits. Perhaps the greatest reward f all wuld be t make sure participants’ effrts are wrthwhile: by designing trials t be fair and effective and applying them when and where they might make a real difference. In shrt, by helping them t save thusands, if nt millins f lives.
32. The authr tells the stry f Edward Jenner mainly t______.
A. give a definitin f challenge trials
B. intrduce the tpic f challenge trials
C. highlight the effectiveness f his vaccine
D. explain the rigin f the wrd “vaccinatin”
33. What can we infer frm the passage?
A. The issues behind challenge trials can be slved.
B. The dangers f challenge trials utweigh the benefits they bring.
C. Challenge trials can benefit numerus lives in spite f their risks.
D. Challenge trials can set back the develpment f vaccine technlgies.
34. What des the authr intend t tell us?
A. Peple shuld still be careful abut challenge trials.
B. A mre pen attitude shuld be taken twards challenge trials.
C. Challenge trials guarantee participants prtectin against threats.
D. Mre vlunteers invlved can imprve the accuracy f challenge trials.
35. Which wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A. Shuld we use challenge trials t find cures?
B. Can challenge trials be a blck t medical prgress?
C. Can challenge trials be the end f infectius diseases?
D. Shuld we replace animal testing with challenge trials?

Many f us set gals, but smetimes we fail t achieve them. There are many causes why we dn’t manage t realize ur gals. 36 There is a way, thugh, t help address this prblem: set reminders. Peple emply a psychlgical strategy called cgnitive （认知的） fflading, where we use a physical actin t reduce demands n ur brain. Specifically, we may utsurce ur intentins frm being stred in ur brains t reminders utside ur head. 37
Understanding the benefits f cgnitive fflading can imprve ur ability t remember and fllw thrugh with ur intentins. The biggest benefit is simply that it imprves memry perfrmance. It increases the prbability that we will wrk twards the gals we need t reach. 38 “The mre we fflad unimprtant infrmatin, such as items n a shpping list, the mre we can use ur brain fr thse mre significant cgnitive tasks, such as creativity,” said Sam Gilbert, prfessr at the University Cllege Lndn.
39 Still, there are ptential negative parts fr it. We are mre likely t frget what we ffladed if we n lnger access ur strage, such as when ur smartphne dies. We als tend t fflad the imprtant things we mst want t remember. In a surprise test where their reminders were wiped clean, the participants were mre likely t frget the imprtant items and recall the unimprtant nes, that is, the mre imprtant the intentin we want t remember, the mre likely we are t fflad it—and t frget it.
We’d better tend t create reminders when we think we need them, but nt necessarily when we d need them. 40 “If ur understanding f ur memry ability is wrng, this suggests that we will either veruse r underuse reminders,” Gilbert said. “We can learn by nticing the times that we have frgtten t d smething and culd have used reminders t help. ”
A. Cgnitive fflading has nticeable benefits.
B. One cmmn reasn is that we simply frget them.
C. Besides, it can free up ur limited cgnitive resurces.
D. A gd example can be dcuments n ur smartphne calendars.
E. The prcess f cgnitive fflading helps us identify false infrmatin.
F. Our beliefs abut hw gd ur memry is directly influence whether we set them.
G. Other experts say it’s t sn t understand hw cgnitive fflading affects ur brains.
