第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

Are you interested in robot-science? What do you think robots are capable of? Let’s have a review of world-leading technology gathered at the World Robot Conference (WRC) 2022.

Technology in agriculture

A fruit-picking robot attracted visitors’ attention. With the help of various sensors and an AI system, the robot can collect fruit according to its ripeness, quality and size. The robot first locates the fruit and then uses sensors to decide whether it is ripe, with a robotic arm picking the fruit gently. The fruit is then categorized, ending up in a basket according to its size. It is said that more robotic technology will be used in agriculture in the future, including robots for daily inspection and weeding.

Robots fighting Covid-19

Medical staff conducting nucleic acid tests often find their work toilsome, especially under the summer heat. A nucleic acid test robot developed by Tsinghua University and a Chinese biotech company was presented at the WRC． It looks like a vending machine, but the robot can collect throat swabs, process samples, as well as produce and upload the results within 45 minutes. The whole process will not require the involvement of humans or laboratories.

Inventions of the youth

Those visiting the exhibit also witnessed the intelligence of a new generation. Wang Zirun, a junior student at the school, designed a three-dimensional parking facility model. Since there are usually too few parking spaces in older residential areas, Wang’s work aims to fit more cars into current parking spots. The facility works like a sky wheel with six parking spots. When cars need to be picked up, the facility rotates steadily, placing the car on the ground.

21．Where is the text probably taken from?

A．A travel brochure.

B．A technology textbook.

C．A science magazine.

D．A product advertisement.

22．Why is the parking facility designed like a sky wheel?

A．To save building materials.

B．To prevent cars from being stolen.

C．To increase ground parking spaces.

D．To make the most of limited space.

23．What can we infer from the text?

A．Both the fruit-picking robot and the nucleic acid test robot can save manpower.

B．The WRC is intended to inspire the intelligence of a young generation.

C．All the inventions mentioned have been put into practical use.

D．Human can be replaced by the robot in the future.

Amy, a day old, was abandoned at a police station in Seoul. Her birth parents couldn’t afford to give Amy the appropriate healthcare then. She spent her first three months in an orphanage before she was adopted. “I always thought, why should I be more thankful to my adoptive parents than the next person?” she says.

In 2011, Amy reconnected with her birth mother in South Korea, her adoptive mum by her side. “My Korean mother took my American mother’s hands in hers and said with tears, ‘Thank you.’ After that, my whole world changed,” Amy says. At the time, she was working in the e-commerce sector and struggling with anxiety, depression and an eating disorder. Reconnecting with her birth family, however made her feel like the luckiest person in the world and she wanted to actively share her good fortune. That year, she quit her job and co-founded the Global Gratitude Alliance, which partners with grassroots organizations to create community-led solutions or social and economic change.

Since then, a reflexive sense of thankfulness has become Amy’s frame of reference for work, relationships and daily life in general. She tried to rethink her world view, appreciate the little things and make connections with others. For Amy, the attitude shift helped her overcome health issues —— she didn’t need the drugs any more after she returned from Korea.

Those positive effects inspired Amy to share the experience with others. Through a partnership with a home for orphaned children in Nepal, the Global Gratitude Alliance provided teachers with workshops that concluded with a ceremony of giving thanks. The participants used those techniques to help their students and community after the destructive earthquake of 2015. Children from the school recently visited a local seniors’ home to build relationships with the residents there. “Gratitude creates a cycle of giving and receiving,” Amy says.

24．What can we know from the passage?

A．Amy was raised by an American couple.

B．Amy received proper treatment as an infant.

C．Amy was more thankful to her birth mother.

D．Amy was orphaned three months after her birth.

25．What played a key role in Amy’s change?

A．Her job quitting B．The reunion with her birth mother.

C．The struggle against her disease. D．The connections with volunteers.

26．What can we know about members of the Global Gratitude Alliance?

A．They hosted ceremonies in workshops.

B．They sought partners for orphaned children.

C．They built relations with adoptive parents.

D．They contributed to post-disaster service.

27．What is the text mainly about?

A．Good fortune inspires people a lot. B．Reflection helps build frame of life.

C．Family reunion gets positive effects D．Gratitude needs to be widely spread.

C

Mass communication is a very broad field which includes advertising, mass promotion, political campaigns, public relations, mass education and even the way you interact with other people. It covers just about everything you do in your daily life. Some characteristics of mass communication are: communication, information overload, group effort and feedback. There are some more that are less often mentioned but are just as important as the ones that have been listed above.

The most basic feature of communication is interaction. Interaction takes the form of communication where you can interpret what someone is trying to say. For example, when a person says "How are you?" and you respond in a loud voice or in a concerned manner, it's considered interaction.

Another characteristic of mass communication that you'll come across is a large number of receivers. When communicating with a group of people, it is important to keep in mind that each receiver will bring different characteristics to the table when communicating. Different receivers will take up different topics and bring a different set of characteristics to the table. In some cases, you will need to communicate with many different types of receiver in order for your communication ideas to be fully expressed and taken into full effect. You should therefore consider the characteristics of your receivers when planning your communication strategies.

 New media is also impacting communication. Each type of new medium has diverse different ways in which it can deliver messages. You can make use of several types of communication in many cases and reach a wide range of target audiences. For example, you can use the Internet in order to communicate with your audience. As a result, the amount of information also in turn becomes too much for the human mind to process in a timely and effective manner. This overload is not only unsound, but it also tends to make people impatient, which finally takes the form of arguments and other types of exchanges that are based on facts, assumptions or personal experiences. However, although you may have to deal with some constraints, the Internet is still a very powerful tool that should not be ignored.

28. What role does the example given by the author in the second paragraph play?

A. Explain the importance of politeness.

B. Explain the concept of interaction.

C. Explain the characteristics of communication.

D. Explain what body language is.

29. Why should we consider different receivers when planning communication??

A. Because communicators have many different characteristics on the dinner table.

B. So that your ideas can be accurately expressed and play a role.

C. In order to better improve your communication strategy.

D. Because the receivers have different views on different topics.

30. Why does communication often take the form of argument?

A. Because there are too many types of communication.

B. Because people have different experiences.

C. Because the new media is not perfect.

D. Because overloaded information is boring.

31. What is the author's attitude towards mass communication?

A. Uncaring.

B. Indifferent.

C. Objective.

D. Subjective.

D

Although ethics classes are common around the world, scientists are unsure if their lessons can actually change behavior; evidence either way is weak, relying on contrived laboratory tests or sometimes unreliable self-reports. But a new study published in Cognition found that, in at least one real-world situation, a single ethics lesson may have had lasting effects.

The researchers investigated one class session’s impact on eating meat. According to study co-author Eric Schwitzgebel, a philosopher at the University of California, Riverside: students’ attitudes on the topic are variable and unstable, behavior is easily measurable, and ethics literature largely agrees that eating less meat is good because it reduces environmental harm and animal suffering. Half of the students in four large philosophy classes read an article on the ethics of factory-farmed meat, optionally watched an 11-minute video on the topic and joined a 50-minute discussion. The other half focused on charitable giving instead. Then, unbeknownst to the students, the researchers studied their anonymized meal-card purchases for that semester — nearly 14,000 receipts for almost 500 students. “It’s an awesome data set,” says Nina Strohminger, a psychologist who teaches business ethics at the University of Pennsylvania and was not involved in the study.

Schwitzgebel predicted the intervention would have no effect; he had previously found that ethics professors do not differ from other professors on a range of behaviors, including voting rates, blood donation and returning library books. But among student subjects who discussed meat ethics, meal purchases containing meat decreased from 52 to 45 percent — and this effect held steady for the study’s duration of several weeks. Purchases from the other group remained at 52 percent.

“That’s actually a pretty large effect for a pretty small intervention.” Schwitzgebel says. Strohminger agrees: “The thing that still blows my mind is that the only thing that’s different between these two cases is just that one day in class.” She says she wants the effect to be real but cannot rule out some unknown confounding variable. And if real. Strohminger notes, it might be reversible by another nudge: “Easy come, easy go.”

Schwitzgebel suspects the greatest impact came from social influence — classmates or teaching assistants leading the discussions may have shared their own vegetarianism, showing it as achievable or more common. Second, the video may have had an emotional impact. Least rousing, he thinks, was rational argument, although his co-authors say reason might play a bigger role. Now the researchers are probing the specific effects of teaching style, teaching assistants’ eating habits and students’ video exposure. Meanwhile Schwitzgebel who had predicted no effect — will be eating his words.

32．Paragraph 2 is mainly about  .

A．Research reasons and process

B．Research subjects and findings

C．Research topic and significance

D．Research data collection and analysis

33．Which of the following doesn’t lead to the researchers’ investigation into meat-eating among students?

A．Students’ knowledge of the topic.

B．Students’ easily-measured behaviors.

C．Students’ changeable and unsteady attitudes.

D．Students’ unawareness of ethics lessons’ impact.

34．What does the underlined phrase “blows my mind” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A．Convinces me. B．Upsets me. C．Alarms me. D．Amazes me.

35．What is the main purpose of the passage?

A．To prove Schwitzgebel’s prediction is wrong.

B．To show teaching works in behavior changing.

C．To explain students are easy to make a change.

D．To justify investigation into ethics is worthwhile.

Regret refers to a feeling of sadness about something wrong or about a mistake that you have made, and a wish that it could have been different and better. ___36___ Experts say they come in four basic varieties: connection regrets, moral regrets, foundation regrets and boldness regrets.

Katie had always felt like she never connected with anyone. There was no one she considered a friend. So, when her parents decided to move, she was okay with it. She didn't feel sad because she wasn't leaving anyone behind.

She was eight when they moved to a new town. It wasn't that different from where they had lived before. There were a lot of trees and kids running around outside, riding bikes, and playing. One day her mother caught her staring out the window at some kids playing. Her mom told her to go out and play with those kids. So Katie went out. She could see that they were all having fun and she wanted to join in but she was afraid. She tried to muster up the courage to ask them if she could join them but she just couldn't do it.

She decided to go for a walk instead. She liked how peaceful the town was. The people seemed nice and polite. Her stroll finally led her to the town's lake. She felt the rush of cold air hitting her face. The beauty of the lake was something to behold. She sat there admiring it and decided that this would be her place. She would come here every day and maybe one day, she would bring her friends here.

After school, she always stopped by the lake before going home. She swore she could stay there for hours, maybe even live there. If she ever got hungry, she always had food ready in her bag.

One day when she was writing a poem about the lake, she heard her stomach growl. She put down her notebook and her pen and got her sandwich out. She was about to take a bite when she heard a noise. This alarmed her. She hadn't heard or seen anything strange before. She looked around and suddenly she noticed that there was something black moving toward the bank.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右；

2 .请按如下格式在相应位置作答。

“A swimming black dog!” Katie cried out in surprise.

Every day, Katie brought five extra sandwiches for her friend.
