19、roject planning.D.Committing themselves to becoming an expert.Sitting in the garden for my friends birthday.I felt a buzz(振动)in my pocket.My heart raced when I saw the email senders name.The email started off:“Dear Mr Green,thank you for your interest”and“the review process took longer than expected
20、.”It ended with“We are sorry to inform you”and my vision blurred(模糊).The positionmeasuring soil quality in the Sahara Desert as part of an undergraduate research programme had felt like the answer I had spent years looking for.I had put so much time and emotional energy into applying,and I thought t
21、he rejection meant the end of the road for my science career.So I was shocked when,not long after the email,Professor Mary Devon,who was running the programme,invited me to observe the work being done in her lab.I jumped at the chance,and a few weeks later I was equally shockedand overjoyedwhen she
22、invited me to talk with her about potential projects I could pursue in her lab.What she proposed didnt seem as exciting as the original project I had applied to,but I was going to give it my all.I found myself working with a robotics professor on techniques for collecting data from the desert remote
23、ly.That project,which I could complete from my sofa instead of in the burning heat of the desert,not only survived the lockdown but worked where traditional methods didnt.In the end,I had a new scientific interest to pursue.When I applied to graduate school,I found three programmes promising to allo
24、w me to follow my desired research direction.And I applied with the same anxious excitement as before.When I was rejected from one that had seemed like a perfect fit,it was undoubtedly difficult.But this time I had the perspective(视角)to keep it from sending me into panic.It helped that in the end I
25、was accepted into one of the other programmes I was also excited about.Rather than setting plans in stone,Ive learned that sometimes I need to take the opportunities that are offered,even if they dont sound perfect at the time,and make the most of them.24.How did the author feel upon seeing the emai

28、diverse fields have agreed that short-termism is now a significant problem in industrialised societies.The inability to engage with longer-term causes and consequences leads to some of the worlds most serious problems:climate change,biodiversity collapse,and more.The historian Francis Cole argues th
29、at the West has entered a period where“only the present exists,a present characterised at once by the cruelty of the instant and by the boredom of an unending now”.It has been proved that people have a bias(偏向)towards the present,focusing on loud attractions in the moment at the expense of the healt
30、h,well-being and financial stability of their future selves or community.In business,this bias surfaces as short-sighted decisions.And on slow-burning problems like climate change,it translates into the unwillingness to make small sacrifices(牺牲)today that could make a major difference tomorrow.Inste
31、ad,all that matters is next quarters profit,or satisfying some other near-term desires.These biased perspectives cannot be blamed on one single cause.It is fair to say,though,that our psychological biases play a major role.Peoples hesitancy to delay satisfaction is the most obvious example,but there
32、 are others.One of them is about how the most accessible information in the present affects decisions about the future.For instance,you might hear someone say:“Its cold this winter,so I neednt worry about global warming.”Another is that loud and urgent matters are given too much importance,making pe
33、ople ignore longer-term trends that arguably matter more.This is when a pop star draws far more attention than,say,gradual biodiversity decline.As a psychologist once joked,if aliens(外星人)wanted to weaken humanity,they wouldnt send ships;they would invent climate change.Indeed,when it comes to enviro
34、nmental transformations,we can develop a form of collective“poor memory”,and each new generation can believe the state of affairs they encounter is nothing out of the ordinary.Older people today,for example,can remember a time with insect-covered car windscreens after long drives.Children,on the oth
35、er hand,have no idea that insect population has dropped dramatically.28.The author quotes Francis Cole mainly to _.A.draw a comparison B.introduce a topic C.evaluate a statement D.highlight a problem 29.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Climate change has been forgotten.B.Lessons of his
36、tory are highly valued.C.The human mind is bad at noting slow change.第5页/共17页 D.Humans are unwilling to admit their shortcomings.30.What does the author intend to tell us?A.Far-sighted thinking matters to humans.B.Humans tend to make long-term sacrifices.C.Current policies facilitate future decision
37、-making.D.Bias towards the present helps reduce near-term desires.What is life?Like most great questions,this one is easy to ask but difficult to answer.The reason is simple:we know of just one type of life and its challenging to do science with a sample size of one.The field of artificial life-call
38、ed ALife for short is the systematic attempt to spell out lifes fundamental principles.Many of these practitioners,so-called ALifers,think that somehow making life is the surest way to really understand what life is.So far no one has convincingly made artificial life.This track record makes ALife a
39、ripe target for criticism,such as declarations of the fields doubtful scientific value.Alan Smith,a complexity scientist,is tired of such complaints.Asking about“the point”of ALife might be,well,missing the point entirely,he says.“The existence of a living system is not about the use of anything.”Al
40、an says.“Some people ask me,So whats the worth of artificial life?Do you ever think,What is the worth of your grandmother?”As much as many ALifers hate emphasizing their researchs applications,the attempts to create artificial life could have practical payoffs.Artificial intelligence may be consider
41、ed ALifes cousin in that researchers in both fields are enamored by a concept called open-ended evolution(演化).This is the capacity for a system to create essentially endless complexity,to be a sort of“novelty generator”.The only system known to exhibit this is Earths biosphere.If the field of ALife
42、manages to reproduce lifes endless“creativity”in some virtual model,those same principles could give rise to truly inventive machines.Compared with the developments of Al,advances in ALife are harder to recognize.One reason is that ALife is a field in which the central concept life itself is undefin
43、ed.The lack of agreement among ALifers doesnt help either.The result is a diverse line of projects that each advance along their unique paths.For better or worse,ALife mirrors the very subject it studies.Its muddled(混乱的)progression is a striking parallel(平行线)to the evolutionary struggles that have s
44、haped Earth biosphere.Undefined and uncontrolled,ALife drives its followers to repurpose old ideas and generated novelty.It may be,of course,that these characteristics arent in any way surprising or singular.They may apply universally to all acts of evolution.Ultimately ALife may be nothing special.
45、But even this dismissal suggests something：perhaps,just like life itself throughout the universe,the rise of ALife will prove unavoidable.31.Regarding Alan Smiths defence of ALife,the author is .A.supportive B.puzzled C.unconcerned D.doubtful 32.What does the word“enamored”underlined in Paragraph 3
46、most probably mean?A.Shocked.B.Protected.C.Attracted.D.Challenged.33.What can we learn from this passage?A.ALife holds the key to human future.B.ALife and AI share a common feature.C.AI mirrors the developments of ALife.D.AI speeds up the process of human evolution.34.Which would be the best title f
47、or the passage?A.Life Is Undefined.Can AI Be a Way Out?第6页/共17页 B.Life Evolves.Can AI Help ALife Evolve,Too?C.Life Is Undefined.Can ALife Be Defined One Day?D.Life Evolves.Can Attempts to Create ALife Evolve,Too?第二节第二节(共共 10 分分)根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该

49、education,theyre often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings._36_ Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities,on average,scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities._37_ The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is
50、surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success.Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.Rankings,however,are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education.Administrators often dont view teach
