16、and D. Choose the best answer and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneWhat did you study at university? If it was something along the lines of law or business, you might want to look away now. Thats because according to new research, which has found a link between our university subjects
17、 and our personalities, you have selfish, uncooperative tendencies and are not very in touch with your feelings. On the plus side, youre probably the life and soul of a party, the findings suggest.Researchers analyzed data from more than 13,000 university students who were involved in 12 separate st
18、udies. From this, they discovered a correlation between the “Big Five” major personality traits and the subjects they were enrolled on.For example, those studying law, economics, political science and medicine tended to be much more outgoing than those taking other subjects, the study found. But whe
19、n it came to “agreeableness”the tendency towards being helpful, generous and consideratethe lawyers scored particularly low, as did business and economics students.Arts and humanities students， as well as those studying psychology and politics scored highly for openness, meaning they were curious, i
20、maginative and in touch with their inner feelings, while economists, engineers, lawyers and scientists scored comparatively low. However, the arts and humanities students also tended to be less conscientious and more nervous, typically exhibiting signs of anxiety and moodiness. Psychology students w
21、ere not far behind arts and humanities students for these traits.Study author Anna Vedel， from the University of Aarhus in Denmark, said she was surprised by the results. “The effect sizes show that the differences found are not trivial, far from,”she said. “On the more humorous side they do confirm
22、 our more or less prejudicial stereotypes of the disturbed psychologist, the withdrawn natural scientist， the cynical economist.”And she said that the findings could help those school pupils who currently have no idea what to study at university, as well as helping academics to plan their lectures.“
23、Im not arguing that these results should play a major role in either guidance or selection, but it might provide some inspiration for students that are in doubt about study choices and want to make a choice based on more than abilities, for example,” said Dr Vedel. “Or teachers might better understa
24、nd their student population.”21.The first paragraph implies that law or business students may.A.be amused by the researchB.be interested in the researchC.dislike the researchD.enjoy the research22.According to the research, law students scored particularly low in the trait of.A.generosityB.opennessC
25、.anxietyD. selfishness23.The word “conscientious” (Para.4) probably means “”.A.moodyB.sensitiveC.curiousD.careful24.Anna Vedel stated that the research.A.confirmed the link between personality and professionB.showed that the differences were far from significantC.was not reliable because of its prej
26、udicial observationD.did not have enough samples to support its findings25.According to Anna Vedel, the research may help.A.students make wise choices in finding jobsB.teachers understand their students betterC.students make presentations more academicallyD.school pupils go to better universitiesPas
27、sage TwoAlphaGos victory over Go（围棋） champion Lee Sedol reportedly shocked artificial intelligence experts, who thought such an event was 10 to 15 years away. But if the timing was a surprise, the outcome was not. On the contrary, it was inevitable and entirely foreseeable.Playing complex games is p
28、recisely what computers do supremely well. Just as they beat the world champions at checkers(跳棋)and then chess, they were destined to beat the champion at Go. Yet I dont believe, as some do, that human defeats like this one presage an era of mass unemployment in which awesomely able computers leave
29、most of us with nothing to do. Advancing technology will profoundly change the nature of highvalue human skills and that is threatening, but we arent doomed.The skills of deep human interaction, the abilities to manage the exchanges that occur only between people, will only become more valuable. Thr
30、ee of these skills stand out: The first, the foundation of the rest, is empathy, which is more than just feeling someone elses pain. Its the ability to perceive what another person is thinking or feeling, and to respond in an appropriate way.The second is creative problemsolving in groups. Research
31、on group effectiveness shows that the key isnt team cohesion or motivation or even the smartest members IQ; rather, its the social sensitivity of the members, their ability to read one another and keep anyone from dominating.The third critical ability, somewhat surprisingly, is storytelling, which h
32、as not traditionally been valued by organizations. Charts, graphs and data analysis will continue to be important, but thats exactly what technology does so well. To change peoples minds or inspire them to act, tell them a story.These skills, though basic to our humanity, are fundamentally different
33、 from the skills that have been the basis of economic progress for most of human history, such as logic， knowledge and analysis, which we learned from textbooks and in classrooms. By contrast, the skills of deep human interaction address the often irrational reality of how human beings behave, and w
34、e find them not in textbooks but inside ourselves. As computers master ever more complexity, thats where well find the source of our continued value.26.According to the author, AlphaGos victory.A.could have happened earlierB.came as a pleasant surpriseC.was an expected resultD.was more a matter of l
35、uck27.The word “presage” (Para. 2) is closest in meaning to “”.A.surviveB.sufferC.inventD.predict28.What is the authors attitude towards the human future in face of technology?A.Unclear.B.Confused.C.Worried.D.Optimistic.29.Which of the following is the most fundamental to human interaction?A.Social
36、sensitivity of group members to understand each other.B.Strong ability to share peoples feelings and respond.C.Team spirit to make sure that everyone is involved.D.Inspirational storytelling to motivate people to act.30.According to the author, the skills of deep human interaction.A.are the source o
37、f true human values in the futureB.can work with knowledge to make the world betterC.are similar to the skills of human logic and analysisD.can be learned from textbooks and in classroomsPassage ThreeLast year, I went WWOOFing (Willing Workers on Organic Farms) at a beautiful organic farm in La Runi
38、on. With WWOOFing, volunteers exchange their time and work for food and accommodation. I slept in a cabin in the woods with hedgehogs （刺猬）digging about in the bushes, all different coloured birds singing in the morning and endless rows of palm trees offering shade from the sun.For me, one of the bes
39、t ways to get to know a new place is to work with the land, live with the locals and share meals together. This is why I absolutely love WWOOFing. It has got to be one of the best ways to travel. It is a mutually beneficial exchange where everyone involved prioritises people and environment above pr
40、ofit. You get the time and space to deepen a connection with local communities and nature.There is a lot to learn and each farm has its own unique way of doing things, depending on the environment, climate and soil. At the farm in La Runion we planted palm trees to harvest the core of the trunk whic
41、h can be eaten in salads. Before staying with the farm I had only eaten heart of palm from cans which were nothing in comparison to the real thing, fresh from the ground. When potting up the very beginnings of the palm trees, I felt grateful to be a part of the start of the trees cycle. I was filled
42、 with awe that something so small could grow into something so big and strong.We also did lots of weeding, which helped me to get to know all kinds of different plants, to be able to identify which ones we could use as herbs/medicine/in salads and which were seen as uneatable. I also got to harvest
43、pineapples and guava fruit (番石榴)to make jams which will be sold at the local market.Of course, not everyone is able to travel far away into the field. The great thing about the skillshare philosophy behind WWOOFing is that its something we can all do from our own backyard. The focus shifts from mone
44、y to how we can best support each other in our communities. A fair exchange can make a big difference in the world.31.WWOOFing enables volunteers to.A.get food and shelter for their workB.travel around La Runion for freeC.tell the differences between various birdsD.have close contact with wild anima
45、ls32.The author found his farm life in La Runion quite.A.awfulB.rewardingC.comfortableD.difficult33.The author did all of the following on the organic farm EXCEPT.A.removing weedsB.planting palm treesC.harvesting fruitsD.collecting vegetables34.The philosophy of WWOOFing is to.A.improve local enviro
46、nmentB.make locals live betterC.unite different communitiesD.advocate a fair exchange35.This passage is mainly about.A.the development of WWOOFingB.a local WWOOFing communityC.a charming WWOOFing experienceD.the system of WWOOFingPassage FourExperts say distracted walking is a growing problem, as pe
47、ople of all ages become more dependent on electronic devices for personal and professional matters. They also note pedestrian deaths have been rising in recent years. In 2023， 11% of all US deaths involved pedestrians, but that number rose to 15% in 2023.The rise in deaths coincides with states intr
48、oducing bills that target pedestrians. Some states, such as Hawaii, Arkansas, Illinois, Nevada and New York, continue to introduce legislation every year.The measure recently introduced by New Jersey assembly woman Pamela Lampitt would ban walking while texting and prohibit pedestrians on public roads from using electronic communication devices unless
