阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
It was a cld January mrning in Washingtn DC, a man sat at a subway statin and started t play the vilin. He played fr abut 45 minutes.
Three minutes went by, and a middle-aged man stpped fr a few secnds, and then hurried up t take care f his wn things.
A minute later, the vilinist received his first tip: a wman threw sme mney withut stpping, and walked away.
Only a 3-year-ld by tk the music seriusly, ging ver, sitting dwn and sn lsing himself in the wnderful perfrmance. His mther wished t hurry alng. but the kid kept lking at the vilinist.
When he finished playing, n ne nticed it. N ne applauded (鼓掌).
N ne knew this, but the vilinist was Jshua Bell, ne f the mst talented musicians in the wrld. He had just played ne f the mst beautiful pieces ever written, n a vilin wrth 3.5 millin dllars. Jshua Bell played the same music with the same vilin and the seats each cst 100 dllars at a theatre tw days befre.
Jshua Bell’s playing in the subway statin was a scial experiment. It asks questins: in a cmmn envirnment at a wrng hur, d we enjy beauty? D we stp t make a respnse (反应)? If we d nt have a mment t stp and listen t ne f the best musicians in the wrld playing the best music, hw many ther things are we ignring (忽视)?
21. Hw many peple stpped t listen t the music carefully?
A. One.B. Tw.C. Three.D. Nne.
22. Why did the man play the vilin at the subway statin?
A. T make sme mney.B. T see peple’s respnse.
C. T practice his skills.D. T teach a music lessn.
23. What des the writer suggest in the last paragraph?
A. Dn’t be always in a hurry.
B. Stp t enjy street perfrmance.
C. Enjy beautiful music at a theatre.
D. Dn’t miss the wnderful mment in life.

When sme peple dn’t knw much abut a tpic, they may nt realise just hw little they knw. As a result, they may becme vercnfident and verestimate (高估) what they can d. A persn might think he will get a B, fr example, when he might nt knw enugh t pass the test at all. The vercnfidence has a name — the DunningKruger effect.
Charles Atwd, an educatr at the University f Utah, was lking fr pssible reasns why sme students at the university failed chemistry tests. He realised success fr the students depended nt nly n what they knew but als n hw much they didn’t knw. If he wanted the students t imprve, he wuld have t teach them t recgnise the gaps in their knwledge.
Knwing just hw bad they are in a subject may nt help a student get better. Atwd thught lifting metacgnitin (元认知) might help the students t make sure where they needed help Metacgnitin, accrding t Atwd, is assessing (评定) hw yu deal with a prblem. That culd help the students realise just hw much chemistry they didn’t knw s they culd study accrdingly.
T see if metacgnitin culd wrk, Atwd studied tw classes, which were taught chemistry in the same way. But students in ne class were asked befre each test hw they thught they wuld perfrm (表现). After each test, students in the class gt their scres thrugh a cmputer prgram. Then the prgram gave them sme tpics which they’d been especially bad at in the test. Then, they were guided int making a study plan that wuld prepare them fr the next test.
After a term, the class that gt the guided study did better in the chemistry curse, especially thse wh had been the mst vercnfident in the beginning. In additin, they reprted having stpped their dangerus vercnfidence.
It’s n fun shaking students’ cnfidence, but in the lng run, students will get a lt frm Atwd’s methd. Cnfidence has its advantages, but students want t be bth cnfident and knwledgeable.
24. Why are sme peple affected by the Dunning-Kruger effect?
A. They lk dwn upn thers.
B. They aren’t interested in learning.
C. They always want t get gd grades in tests.
D. They dn’t have a crrect view f their abilities.
25. Hw did Atwd help the students wh failed chemistry tests?
A. By giving them encuragement.
B. By telling them what tpics t learn.
C. By helping them set right learning gals.
D. By making them learn frm their failures.
26. When were sme tpics given t the students in Atwd’s study?
A. After the next test started.B. Befre they gt their scres.
C. Befre they made a study plan.D. After they made sme prgress.
27. What is the authr’s attitude twards Atwd’s applying metacgnitin t his study?
A. Supprtive.B. Uninterested.C. Dubtful.D. Wrried.

The Night Watch was cmmissined (委托) in 1639 by Frans BanninckCcq, the captain f Amsterdam’s civil militia (民兵组织), and described him and his 17 members. It was cmpleted in 1642 by Rembrandt van Rijn and spent mre than 70 years in the hall f the civil militia.
In 1715, Dutch fficials decided t mve the painting t the city hall in Amsterdam’s Ryal Palace n the Dam. The almst 12-ft by 14-ft artwrk culdn’t g thrugh the drs, s the mvers made a decisin and cut ff the edges f the painting. The missing parts were never recvered. Hwever, art histrians have been aware f the missing items thanks t a smaller cpy f the riginal scene painted by Dutch artist Gerrit Lundens.
In 2019, fficials f Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum, where the painting has been displayed since 1808, decided t recreate the missing parts. T help them with the restratin (修复), the team, led by the museum’s senir scientist, Rbert Erdmann, turned t a new AI algrithm (算法). Called Cnvlutinal Neural Netwrks, it helps cmputers figure ut what images may have nce lked like. The scientists scanned high-reslutin images f the riginal (原作) and Ludens’ painting t the cmputer. The AI was able t study and crrect the painting’s perspective. It als recgnized the exact clrs used by the Dutch master and culd even cpy his brushstrkes.
The “missing” parts were printed and munted t the painting. The left side included tw men watching the event and a yung by running away frm the militia. A drummer and a barking dg were added t the painting’s right side.
The AI helped the museum reprduce the best pssible versin f the missing pieces. But Tac Dibbits, directr f the Rijksmuseum, thinks that the riginal missing parts are still arund and will be returned t the museum sme day. The restred painting will be n shw and it can als be seen nline n the museum’s website.
28. Why did Rembrandt van Rijn create the painting?
A. He lved recrding peple’s life f his time.
B. Frans Banninck Ccq requested him t d that.
C. He wanted t advertise Amsterdam’s civil militia.
D. The civil militia prvided him with strng inspiratin.
29. Hw did Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum restre the painting?
A. By cpying Ludens’ paintings.B. By using advanced techniques.
C. By emplying a Dutch artist.D. By creating a smaller painting.
30. What d we knw abut Tac Dibbits?
A. He isn’t satisfied with the reprduced pieces.
B. He is trying t find the missing part f the painting.
C. He hpes the riginal missing parts will be fund.
D. He wishes the restred painting will be always n display.
31. What is the main idea f the text?
A. The Night Watch finally cmes t light.
B. The Rijksmuseum is restring ld paintings.
C. The Night Watch was restred t its riginal frm.
D. The riginal parts f The Night Watch are still missing.

Glbal light pllutin has increased by at least 49% ver 25 years, new research shws. This data (数据) nly includes light which can be seen thrugh satellites, and scientists think the true increase may be significantly higher — up t 270% glbally, and 400% in sme areas.
This study shws nt nly f hw bad light pllutin has becme as a prblem f the whle wrld, but als that it is cntinuing t get wrse, prbably at a faster and faster rate.
The study highlights the “hidden impact (影响)” f the LED technlgy. LEDs send ut mre blue light than previus lamp technlgy, but satellite sensrs can’t discver this blue light and s underestimate (低估) the level f emissins (排放物). The authrs say the actual increase in the pwer sent ut by utdr lighting, and thus f light pllutin, may be as high as 270%. “T take the UK as an example, if yu pay n attentin t the effect f the change t LEDs, yu get the false impressin that light pllutin has recently weakened,” said researcher Dr Sanchez de Miguel. “Hwever, it has really increased, very remarkably.”
Cntrary t ppular belief, the LED streetlights, while ptentially prviding sme energy savings, has increased light pllutin and als the impacts n flying insects (昆虫).
Ruskin Hartley, Executive Directr f the Internatinal Dark-Sky Assciatin, said, “Over the past 25 years, the use f LED lighting has been accmpanied by rapid increases in light pllutin all ver the wrld.”
If n actin is taken t change this trend (趋势), the impact n the natural envirnment will speed up, further wrsening the bidiversity (生物多样性) crisis and wasting energy. Many studies have nw shwn that light pllutin, frm streetlights and ther surces, can have majr impacts n the natural envirnment. Such pllutin is likely t have played a rle in the huge decrease in insect ppulatins.
32. Hw des the authr illustrate that light pllutin becmes wrse?
A. By referring t certain theries.
B. By prviding cmparative data.
C. By listing a lt f pinins.
D. By giving sme examples.
33. Why was light pllutin in the UK underestimated?
A. Emissin levels f LEDs are lw.
B. Satellite sensrs are blind t LEDs.
C. Outdr lighting is limited in the UK.
D. LEDs are less and less used in the UK.
34. What’s the general belief f LED streetlights?
A. They are gd fr insects.B. They save lts f energy.
C. They cause light pllutin.D. They are envirnment-friendly.
35. What des the last paragraph fcus n?
A. The harm f light pllutin.
B. The causes f bilgical crises.
C. The trend f insect ppulatins.
D. The imprtance f the natural envirnment.
