“Shyness can stop you from doing all the things in life that you’d like to,” the Smiths once sang. However, research suggests that may not be the case when working as a team.
Researchers have found that when animals temper their personalities because of social rules, the efficiency of a group to undertake risky missions—such as foraging (觅食) for food—is boosted. “We see this phenomenon happening when we mix together a school of fish with wildly different personalities: the very fearless individuals and the very shy individuals tend to control what they would normally be doing when they stick with the rest of the group,” said Dr. Sean Rands, the lead author of the research at the University of Bristol.
Writing in the journal PLoS Computational Biology, the researchers reported how they built a computer model to investigate the impact of social conventions and animals’ personalities on the movement of individuals within a group. The model was based on an assumption in which a group of animals in a safe “home” set out to travel to a food foraging site some distance away.
The results revealed that when no social conventions were in place, their movements were governed by their personalities alone—in other words how fearless or shy they were determined how quickly they left home and arrived at the foraging site. However, when social conventions were introduced, so that the individuals had to keep an eye on each other and adjust their movements accordingly, the impact of personality reduced with less variation in how quickly they reached the destination. The team found where social conventions were present, the group foraged more efficiently than when individuals behaved independently. “We find that if individuals pay attention to the other members of the group, the group will tend to remain at the safe site for longer, but then travel faster towards the foraging site,” the team wrote.
Rands added that for many social animals, being part of a group can bring huge benefits, and these can outweigh the influence of personality.
8. Why are the Smiths’ words mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. To give an example.
B. To make a comparison.
C. To lead in the topic.
D. To introduce the background.
9. What will individuals do while staying with a group?
A. Adjust their behavior.
B. Take on risky missions.
C. Ignore social rules.
D. Travel to a distant foraging site.
10. What can we infer from the results?
A. Personalities alone determine movements.
B. Individuals prefer to behave independently.
C. Group work increases exposure to potential risks.
D. Social conventions contribute to working efficiency.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Be Part of a Group
B. Stay True to Yourself
C. Get Rid of Your Shyness
D. Control Your Personalities
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了与传统所认为的害羞会成为生活的阻碍不同，当个体在群体中时，由于社会习俗的存在，无论是害羞性格，还是大胆无畏性格，个体会调整自我行为以适应群体，这反而提高了做事的效率。因此，群居动物融入群体生活是大有裨益的。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。分析可知，当文章首段提出“‘Shyness can stop you from doing all the things in life that you’d like to,’ the Smiths once sang.(The Smiths曾经唱道：“害羞会阻止你去做生活中你想做的所有事情。”)”之后，用转折句“However, research suggests that may not be the case when working as a team.(然而，研究表明，在团队工作时，情况可能并非如此。)”否定了这一说法，提出在团队合作时，“害羞就是阻碍”的情况并不会发生，并在后文段落进行了详细解释。由此可推知，提到the Smiths的歌词实则是为了引出文章的话题。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“We see this phenomenon happening when we mix together a school of fish with wildly different personalities: the very fearless individuals and the very shy individuals tend to control what they would normally be doing when they stick with the rest of the group(当我们把一群性格截然不同的鱼放在一起时，我们就会看到这种现象：当它们和其他鱼在一起时，非常无畏的鱼和非常害羞的鱼往往会控制它们通常会做的事情)”可知，当个体在群体中时，个体会控制自己通常会做的事情，即，个体会调整自己的行为状态以适应群体。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容“The team found where social conventions were present, the group foraged more efficiently than when individuals behaved independently.(研究小组发现，在社会习俗存在的情况下，群体觅食的效率要高于个体独立行动的情况。)”可知，研究发现，社会习俗存在的情况下，群体觅食的效率较高。由此可推知，社会习俗的存在有助于工作效率。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章末尾段的总结“Rands added that for many social animals, being part of a group can bring huge benefits, and these can outweigh the influence of personality.(兰德斯补充说，对于许多群居动物来说，成为群体的一员可以带来巨大的好处，而这些好处可能会超过个性的影响。)”可知，文章主要通过一系列的研究过程和研究结论总结出成为群体一员的好处，社会习俗的存在可以使个体调整自我行为，从而提高工作效率。选项A“Be Part of a Group(成为群体的一员)”贴合文章主旨。故选A项。
D
China Daily, February 28th, 2023-MOSS, the first large-scale conversational language model in China, will be made open-source software by the end of March, according to its research and development team.

It was made available for public testing on Feb 20. Many people were quick to test the software and share their experiences online. The traffic was so heavy that the platform had to be suspended for an upgrade.
“The plan is to have MOSS interact with humans for a month so as to optimize it. If everything goes well, it will be made open source by the end of March, ” Qiu Xipeng, director of the Natural Language Processing Committee of the Shanghai Computer Society, which is leading the R&D, told ThePaper. cn during the 2023 Global Artificial Intelligence Developers Conference in Shanghai on Sunday.
Making MOSS open-source software can effectively reduce the threshold (门槛)for the development and application of pre-trained language models, thus allowing small and medium-sized enterprises to develop various products, such as smart customer service, smart home and AI lawyers on the basis of it. Qiu said, “MOSS still has a lot of room for improvement, but its appearance proves that the domestic scientific research team has the ability to overcome important technical challenges on the way to developing ChatGPT-like products. ”
“We want to share MOSS and its model codes and development experiences with everyone, and hope that China can be at the forefront of the world in terms of large-scale language models. We look forward to the continued cooperation between the Fudan team and the Shanghai laboratory, through MOSS and subsequent research and exploration, to promote AI inclusiveness and authorize the domestic AI industry as soon as possible, ” he added.
12. What can we learn from paragraph 2?
A. MOSS proved to be perfect.
B. The public testing went smoothly.
C. The test platform was overcrowded.
D. China first released ChatGPT-like software.
13. What does the underlined word “optimize” mean in paragraph 3?

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了中国时尚对自信、新鲜的民族认同感的追求正在产生惊人的跨文化结果。中国的新一代有更多的机会追求艺术和设计方面的学习和职业，因而在过去的十年里，名人文化、形象消费、与物品的新关系以及文化的流行促使年轻的中国设计师创造了一个勇敢的新世界。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意：在过去的十年里，名人文化、形象消费、与物品的新关系以及文化的流行促使年轻的中国设计师创造了一个勇敢的新世界。分析可知，“image ___1____ (consume)”应是与“Celebrity culture”，“the new relation to objects and popularity of culture”为并列主语，均是名词短语，因此，所填应是名词。“consume”，动词，意为“消耗，耗费”，其名词形式为“consumption”，抽象概念，不可数。故填consumption。
【37题详解】
考查时态。句意：在过去的十年里，名人文化、形象消费、与物品的新关系以及文化的流行促使年轻的中国设计师创造了一个勇敢的新世界。分析可知，所填动词为句子的谓语，结合时间状语“over the past decade”可知，用现在完成时，主语为复数，用“have done”。故填have motivated。
【38题详解】
考查时态和被动。句意：中国作为制造业大国的地位是既定的；《经济学人》称，全球近四分之一的制造业产值来自中国。分析可知，所填动词为句子的谓语，结合前后文语境，应是用一般现在时，且动词“produce”与主语“nearly a quarter of global manufacturing output by value”之间为被动关系，且主语不可数，谓语动词用单数形式。故填is produced。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：中国的购买力同样令人印象深刻：中国即将超过美国，成为全球最大的时尚消费国。分析可知，所填应是副词作状语，修饰形容词“impressive”。“equal”，形容词，意为“平等的”，其副词形式为“equally(相当地，同样地)”。故填equally。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意：中国的购买力同样令人印象深刻：中国即将超过美国，成为全球最大的时尚消费国。分析语境可知，“the world’s largest consumer of fashion(世界上最大的时尚消费国)”为中国将要成为的新身份，用介词as表达“作为”含义。故填as。
【41题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意：很明显，中国时尚即将经历一场巨大的身份转变。分析可知，“identity shift(身份的转变)”为名词，表泛指，应添加不定冠词，且huge的发音是辅音音素开头。故填a。
【42题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：中国的新一代有更多的机会追求艺术和设计方面的学习和职业。opportunity之后常用不定式作定语，more opportunities to do，意为“更多的做某事的机会”。故填to pursue。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意：在不断增长的国内市场的鼓励下，许多人在毕业后两年内创办了自己的品牌。修饰名词词组domestic market应用形容词，growing“不断增长的”符合题意。故填growing。
【44题详解】
考查非限制性定语从句。句意：从2014年开始，中国国内市场开始经历所谓的“消费升级”，这激发了更多的消费者，尤其是年轻人，除了快时尚和奢侈品之外，还关注独特的时尚产品。分析可知，“___9___ inspired more consumers…”为修饰之前名词“a so-called ‘consumer upgrade’”的非限制性定语从句，从句缺少主语，用关系代词which引导从句。故填which。
【45题详解】
考查并列连词。句意：年轻的中国设计师响应了这一号召，同时也为海外市场提供了有兴趣的选择。分析可知，“(have) provided”与“have answered”为并列谓语，因此，设空应是并列连词and。故填and。

When I was young, my father was quiet and seldom talked to me, so we were not so close. The times I loved most were the special moments we had together. To this day, I still hold those memories dear. When I had a son, I was always worried that my absence might have an impact on his future life and that I might miss all his milestones since I travelled a lot. I knew how important it was for a boy to have his father near. I decided that if I couldn’t be with my son as often as possible, I would make every effort to create special moments for us.
When my son was five, I was sent to the branch in Shanghai, which meant I had to be away from my family for nearly a year. The hardest time for me was the summer and winter vocations when my son was out of school and families could get together doing something fun. To ease the separation, we kept writing letters to share any precious moments in our life. In one letter home, I promised my son that we would make a lantern together and sign up for the community lantern design competition on the Lantern Festival.
Everywhere I went on business, I would pick up things for our lantern adventure and send them to him. I bought a couple of handbooks on how to DIY a lantern, and I sent those on. I found special bamboo for the frame. I sent him one piece at a time, carefully packed. When I was in Hangzhou, I found the most beautiful silk with gold threads woven through it. Perfect lantern material. I sent it home. I found a golden Chinese knot that could be attached to the bottom of the lantern. I sent that home, along with some auspicious cloud(祥云) paper-cuttings that would serve as splendid decorations. Then I was on my way home.

Then, he took out all the materials I sent him. With these materials, we made the lantern step by step. After a couple of hours, we finished making the lantern. Although both of us were tired, we felt happy. Because we made the most beautiful lantern by ourselves. Seeing the lantern, a sense of satisfaction arose.
Then, the lantern design competition finally arrived. My son and I took the lantern to the community center where so many lanterns were on show. My son put our lantern on a desk. When the competitio bagan, there were many people enjoying the lanterns and voted for their favorite lantern. Then came the final part: announce the results of the competition.

Lin Xi, a 26-year-old lady engaged in electronic disassembly (拆卸)art has proved with her experience that no effort is in vain.
Lin’s work is to tear apart used electronic products and then present the components in an artistic way. “After being put back together, the one dusty items will become exhibition pieces that remind the owners of their childhood experience, a period of hard work or a deep-rooted memory, ” she says. Initially, Lin has to contact her customers to learn the stories behind each one and the type of presentation they prefer. Then comes the disassembly. The components, after being carefully cleaned, will be laid out on a piece of white paper in the desired order. The final step is to use graphics software, Photoshop, to draw and print a base plate.
Lin gained her popularity on short-video platform Douyin. However, it was not luck that brought Lin her current success. She first tried her hand at livestreaming in 2017 as a performer singing popular songs on Douyin. At the time she was a senior at Beijing Foreign Studies University. After graduation, she went to the UK for further study. During her one-year stay abroad, Lin visited many museums and appreciated exhibitions on different subjects, varying from insects to dols. She was so fascinated by an exhibit of used light bulbs, which gave her the inspiration to disassemble electronics and present the components like a decorative painting. She returned to China in 2019 and taught herself how to use digital design software.
Before officially starting her business, Lin surveyed her followers to see whether they would be interested in buying electronic disassembly art. It is important to know who your target audience is when running social media accounts, she explains.

“Shyness can stop you from doing all the things in life that you’d like to,” the Smiths once sang. However, research suggests that may not be the case when working as a team.
Researchers have found that when animals temper their personalities because of social rules, the efficiency of a group to undertake risky missions—such as foraging (觅食) for food—is boosted. “We see this phenomenon happening when we mix together a school of fish with wildly different personalities: the very fearless individuals and the very shy individuals tend to control what they would normally be doing when they stick with the rest of the group,” said Dr. Sean Rands, the lead author of the research at the University of Bristol.
Writing in the journal PLoS Computational Biology, the researchers reported how they built a computer model to investigate the impact of social conventions and animals’ personalities on the movement of individuals within a group. The model was based on an assumption in which a group of animals in a safe “home” set out to travel to a food foraging site some distance away.
The results revealed that when no social conventions were in place, their movements were governed by their personalities alone—in other words how fearless or shy they were determined how quickly they left home and arrived at the foraging site. However, when social conventions were introduced, so that the individuals had to keep an eye on each other and adjust their movements accordingly, the impact of personality reduced with less variation in how quickly they reached the destination. The team found where social conventions were present, the group foraged more efficiently than when individuals behaved independently. “We find that if individuals pay attention to the other members of the group, the group will tend to remain at the safe site for longer, but then travel faster towards the foraging site,” the team wrote.
Rands added that for many social animals, being part of a group can bring huge benefits, and these can outweigh the influence of personality.
8. Why are the Smiths’ words mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. To give an example.
B. To make a comparison.
C. To lead in the topic.
D. To introduce the background.
9. What will individuals do while staying with a group?
A. Adjust their behavior.
B. Take on risky missions.
C. Ignore social rules.
D. Travel to a distant foraging site.
10. What can we infer from the results?
A. Personalities alone determine movements.
B. Individuals prefer to behave independently.
C. Group work increases exposure to potential risks.
D. Social conventions contribute to working efficiency.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Be Part of a Group
B. Stay True to Yourself
C. Get Rid of Your Shyness
D. Control Your Personalities
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了与传统所认为的害羞会成为生活的阻碍不同，当个体在群体中时，由于社会习俗的存在，无论是害羞性格，还是大胆无畏性格，个体会调整自我行为以适应群体，这反而提高了做事的效率。因此，群居动物融入群体生活是大有裨益的。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。分析可知，当文章首段提出“‘Shyness can stop you from doing all the things in life that you’d like to,’ the Smiths once sang.(The Smiths曾经唱道：“害羞会阻止你去做生活中你想做的所有事情。”)”之后，用转折句“However, research suggests that may not be the case when working as a team.(然而，研究表明，在团队工作时，情况可能并非如此。)”否定了这一说法，提出在团队合作时，“害羞就是阻碍”的情况并不会发生，并在后文段落进行了详细解释。由此可推知，提到the Smiths的歌词实则是为了引出文章的话题。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“We see this phenomenon happening when we mix together a school of fish with wildly different personalities: the very fearless individuals and the very shy individuals tend to control what they would normally be doing when they stick with the rest of the group(当我们把一群性格截然不同的鱼放在一起时，我们就会看到这种现象：当它们和其他鱼在一起时，非常无畏的鱼和非常害羞的鱼往往会控制它们通常会做的事情)”可知，当个体在群体中时，个体会控制自己通常会做的事情，即，个体会调整自己的行为状态以适应群体。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容“The team found where social conventions were present, the group foraged more efficiently than when individuals behaved independently.(研究小组发现，在社会习俗存在的情况下，群体觅食的效率要高于个体独立行动的情况。)”可知，研究发现，社会习俗存在的情况下，群体觅食的效率较高。由此可推知，社会习俗的存在有助于工作效率。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章末尾段的总结“Rands added that for many social animals, being part of a group can bring huge benefits, and these can outweigh the influence of personality.(兰德斯补充说，对于许多群居动物来说，成为群体的一员可以带来巨大的好处，而这些好处可能会超过个性的影响。)”可知，文章主要通过一系列的研究过程和研究结论总结出成为群体一员的好处，社会习俗的存在可以使个体调整自我行为，从而提高工作效率。选项A“Be Part of a Group(成为群体的一员)”贴合文章主旨。故选A项。

考查副词。句意：中国的购买力同样令人印象深刻：中国即将超过美国，成为全球最大的时尚消费国。分析可知，所填应是副词作状语，修饰形容词“impressive”。“equal”，形容词，意为“平等的”，其副词形式为“equally(相当地，同样地)”。故填equally。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意：中国的购买力同样令人印象深刻：中国即将超过美国，成为全球最大的时尚消费国。分析语境可知，“the world’s largest consumer of fashion(世界上最大的时尚消费国)”为中国将要成为的新身份，用介词as表达“作为”含义。故填as。
【41题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意：很明显，中国时尚即将经历一场巨大的身份转变。分析可知，“identity shift(身份的转变)”为名词，表泛指，应添加不定冠词，且huge的发音是辅音音素开头。故填a。
【42题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：中国的新一代有更多的机会追求艺术和设计方面的学习和职业。opportunity之后常用不定式作定语，more opportunities to do，意为“更多的做某事的机会”。故填to pursue。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意：在不断增长的国内市场的鼓励下，许多人在毕业后两年内创办了自己的品牌。修饰名词词组domestic market应用形容词，growing“不断增长的”符合题意。故填growing。
【44题详解】
考查非限制性定语从句。句意：从2014年开始，中国国内市场开始经历所谓的“消费升级”，这激发了更多的消费者，尤其是年轻人，除了快时尚和奢侈品之外，还关注独特的时尚产品。分析可知，“___9___ inspired more consumers…”为修饰之前名词“a so-called ‘consumer upgrade’”的非限制性定语从句，从句缺少主语，用关系代词which引导从句。故填which。
【45题详解】
考查并列连词。句意：年轻的中国设计师响应了这一号召，同时也为海外市场提供了有兴趣的选择。分析可知，“(have) provided”与“have answered”为并列谓语，因此，设空应是并列连词and。故填and。

47. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was young, my father was quiet and seldom talked to me, so we were not so close. The times I loved most were the special moments we had together. To this day, I still hold those memories dear. When I had a son, I was always worried that my absence might have an impact on his future life and that I might miss all his milestones since I travelled a lot. I knew how important it was for a boy to have his father near. I decided that if I couldn’t be with my son as often as possible, I would make every effort to create special moments for us.
When my son was five, I was sent to the branch in Shanghai, which meant I had to be away from my family for nearly a year. The hardest time for me was the summer and winter vocations when my son was out of school and families could get together doing something fun. To ease the separation, we kept writing letters to share any precious moments in our life. In one letter home, I promised my son that we would make a lantern together and sign up for the community lantern design competition on the Lantern Festival.
Everywhere I went on business, I would pick up things for our lantern adventure and send them to him. I bought a couple of handbooks on how to DIY a lantern, and I sent those on. I found special bamboo for the frame. I sent him one piece at a time, carefully packed. When I was in Hangzhou, I found the most beautiful silk with gold threads woven through it. Perfect lantern material. I sent it home. I found a golden Chinese knot that could be attached to the bottom of the lantern. I sent that home, along with some auspicious cloud(祥云) paper-cuttings that would serve as splendid decorations. Then I was on my way home.

Then, he took out all the materials I sent him. With these materials, we made the lantern step by step. After a couple of hours, we finished making the lantern. Although both of us were tired, we felt happy. Because we made the most beautiful lantern by ourselves. Seeing the lantern, a sense of satisfaction arose.

When the competitio bagan, there were many people enjoying the lanterns and voted for their favorite lantern. Then came the final part: announce the results of the competition.
