12、 Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1My neighbor Orlando is a paramedic (急救医土). He and his wife are some of the nicest people I have ever met. Afew years back we started this sort of favor war”, where one of us would
13、do something for the other, such as shoveling (铲)their driveway or helping them build a shed, and next time the other would try to top it with another favor.Yesterday morning there was maybe 2 or 3 feet of snow on the ground and I remembered he shoveled my driveway for me last snowfall. So I took ou
14、t my shovel and took care of both our sidewalks and driveways because it was my turn to do a favor back. It took a while but I finished and got into my car for work. What I didnt realize was that Orlando had to work that day too.Fast forward to this morning I got a knock on my door. It was him. He i
15、mmediately shook my hand and informed me that because I shoveled his driveway and sidewalk for him, he was able to get to work earlier. As soon as he started his shift, a call came through that a young boy was in a medical emergency. Luckily he and his partner were only about 2 minutes away, but the
16、 next closest ambulance was in 10 minutes. This kid did not have 10 minutes. He barely had 2 minutes. Because my neighbor got to work sooner, the young boy got to live his life.This isnt a humble brag (吹牛).This is to inform others that even the smallest favors can have the biggest impacts. Itwasnt t
17、oo much of trouble to shovel his driveway for him, but because I did, the young kid got to see his family again, go backto school again, talk to his friends again and live his life.1、What can we know about the writer and Orlando?A. They once had a conflict.B. They signed a favorable agreement.C , Th
18、ey favor shoveling snow together.D. They are always ready to help each other.2、Who saved the boy before it was too late?B. The boys parents.D. Orlando and his partner.B. No favor is too small.D. Don9t lose heart in an emergency.Text 2A. The writer.C. Orlando and his wife.3、What does the writer inten
19、d to tell us?A. Never ask for trouble.C. One cannot always be lucky.As self-driving cars come closer to being common on American roads, much of the rhetoric (浮夸之词)promotingthem has to do with safety. About 40, 000 people die on US roads every year, and driver errors are linked to more than 90percent
20、 of crashes. But many of the biggest supporters of autonomous (自动的)vehicles arent car companies looking to improve the safety of their existing products. Huge support for self-driving technologies is coming from Silicon Valley great companies like Google and Apple.Those of us who have studied the re
21、lationship between technology and society tend to look more carefully at the reasons behind any technological push. In this case, its clear that in addition to solving safety concerns, Silicon Valley firms have a strong incentive (动机)to create a new place for increasing the use of their digital devi
22、ces. Every minute people spend on their mobile phones provides dataand often moneyto tech companies.At present, digital devices and driving are in conflict:There are serious, often fatal consequences when drivers use smartphones to talk or to text. Regulators (管理者)and safety supporters look to solve
23、 dial conflict by banning phone use while driving, as has happened in almost every state. But the tech companies are taking a different approach. The obvious answer for Silicon Valley is to create an automobile in which continuous cellphone use no longer causes a threat to anyone.In recent years, th
24、e amount of time adults spend on their mobile devices has grown rapidly. At the moment, its around four hours a day for the average adult in the US. However, that rapid growth is likely to slow down as people run out of time thats available for them up to use their devices, unless, of course, theres
25、 a new block of time that suddenly opens up. The average American now spends about 48 minutes in a car every day,a sizeable opportunity for increased cellphone use.So as the public conversation around autonomous cars pays attention to the safety advantages, dont forget the tech industrys powerful de
26、sire for more profits, which goes well beyond simply saving us from ourselves.1、Who are responsible for most traffic accidents in America?A. Car companies.B. Drivers.C. Tech companies.D. Self-driving cars.2、What pushes Silicon Valley to promote self-driving technologies?A. To make more money.B , To
27、reduce traffic accidents.C. To limit the use of digital devices.D. To support car companies.3、What does the underlined phrase6a new block of timepossibly refer to?A. The working time.B. Peoples spare time.C. The time spent in the car.D. The time spent on mobile devices.4、What can we know from the pa
28、ssage?A. We should teach people to strictly obey traffic rules.B , The writer calls on us to look at autonomous cars wisely.C. Car companies are the leading promoters of self-driving cars.D. No solution to the conflict between mobile phone use and driving has been found yet.Text 3By trying to tickle
29、(挠痒痒)rats and recording how their nerve cells respond, Shimpei Ishiyama and his adviser are discovering a mystery that has puzzled thinkers since Aristotle expected that humans, given their thin skin and unique ability to laugh, were the only ticklish animals.It turns out that Aristotle was wrong. I
30、n their study published on Thursday, Ishiyama and his adviser Michael Brecht found that rats squeaked and jumped with pleasure when tickled on their backs and bellies. These signs of joy changed according to their moods. And for the first time, they discovered a special group of nerve cells. These n
31、erve cells made this feeling so powerful that it causes an individual being tickled to lose control.To make sure that he had indeed found a place in the brain where tickling was processed, Ishiyama then stimulated(刺激) that area with electrical currents. The rats began to jump like rabbits and sing l
32、ike birds.“Its truly ground-breaking/9 said Jeffrey Burgdorf, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University who reviewed the paper.“It takes the study of emotion to a new level.”Burgdorf has played a central role in our understanding of animal tickling. He was part of a team that first noticed, in the
33、 late 1990s, that rats made special noises when they were experiencing social pleasure. Others had already noted that rats repeatedly made short and high sounds during meals. But the lab where Burgdorf worked noticed that they emitted similar sounds while playing. And so one day, the senior scientis
34、t in the lab said, Lets go and tickle some rats. They quickly found that those cries of pleasure doubled.“The authors have been very adventurous,said Daniel OConnor, a neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins University who studies touch. To him, that finding was very surprising.“Why does the world literally
35、 feel different when you are stressed out?” he said. “This is the first step towards answering that question. It gives us a way to approach it with experimental rigor(严谨)1 What contributed to humans being ticklish according to Aristotle?A. Their special skin. B. Their social pleasure.C. Their nervou
36、s system. D. Their willingness to touch.2、Why did the researchers make use of electrical currents?A. To discover the special group of nerve cells.B , To experiment on different animals.C. To follow the process of tickling.D. To prove their finding.3、Which of the following statements will Jeffrey Bur
37、gdorf agree with?A. The research process is full of risks.B. The finding of the study is surprising and unbelievable.C. The new discovery is beneficial for the study of emotion.D. The finding of the study actually contradicts modern science.4、The underlined word “squeak” in Paragraph 2 may be explai
