The limitatins f Digital Technlgy in the Fight against the Virus

Reading Cmprehensin (41 – 55题，每题1分；56 – 70题，每题2分；共45分)
Sectin A
Directins: Fr each blank in the fllwing passage there are fur wrds r phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the wrd r phrase that best fits the cntext.
In The Debunking (揭穿真相) Handbk, a shrt guide published in 2011, Jhn Ck, at Gerge Masn University, and Stephan Lewandwsky, at the University f Bristl, lked at the wrld-view backfire effect, the idea that if a crrectin f a false claim disagrees with yur wrld view, it strengthens the ___41___. Jasn Reifler at the University f Exeter fund this in his Iraq study, but he pints ut that the effect nly appeared in tw ut f five experiments.
What’s mre, althugh sme later studies have seen similar results, many haven’t seen the effect at all. This suggests it is much ___42___ than Reifler’s wrk suggested, which he thinks is fantastic news.
But whatever yu d, dn’t pint this ut, r turn t ___43___ (“Yu’re wrng!”, “Yu’re ignrant”.). Instead, listen and ask questins that ___44___ why smene has thse pinins (“What makes yu think that?”).
The gd news is that scial events are ___45___ situatins fr crrecting myths. Assuming there is at least sme trust between yu, the ther persn will prbably hear yu ut.

The bad news is that even with all this in mind, yu are still unlikely t ___48___ smene, especially if yu are challenging their wrld view. Crrectins that are ttally different frm ne’s wrld view are by-and-large ineffective, especially in cnservative peple.
S why even ___49___? Firstly, peple are much less likely t spread false infrmatin if they are held accuntable fr it, says Reifler. ___50___ yur relatives’ false claims may make them think twice befre spreading nnsense n anther ccasin.
And always ___51___ the ther peple in the rm. Even if yu d nt change yur Aunt Susan’s mind, yu may sw a seed in yur nieces’ and nephews’ minds.
Indeed, Ck thinks there is little chance f changing the minds f, say, the 7 per cent f peple in the US wh are very ___52___ that glbal warming isn’t happening at all. Instead, he thinks we shuld ___53___ the majrity still pen t persuasin. His studies shw that peple are less likely t fall fr false arguments if they are warned against them. ___54___, frewarn them abut the prblem f false balance in the media and their views wn’t change when they read an article full f false-balance qutes.

Sectin B
Directins: Read the fllwing three passages. Each passage is fllwed by several questins r unfinished statements. Fr each f them there are fur chices marked A, B, C and D. Chse the ne that fits best accrding t the infrmatin given in the passage yu have just read.
(A)
At first, I didn’t recgnize the symptms that we all had in cmmn. Friends mentined that they were having truble cncentrating. It wasn’t burnut — we still had energy. It wasn’t depressin — we didn’t feel hpeless. We just felt smewhat jyless and aimless.
It turns ut there’s a name fr that: languishing.
Languishing is a sense f inactivity and emptiness. It feels as if yu’re muddling (应付) thrugh yur days, lking at yur life thrugh a fggy windshield.
In psychlgy, we think abut mental health n a spectrum (范围) frm depressin t flurishing. Flurishing is the peak f well-being. Depressin is the valley f ill-being. Languishing is the neglected middle child f mental health. It’s the emptiness between depressin and flurishing – the absence f well-being. Yu’re nt functining at full capacity. Languishing dulls yur mtivatin, disrupts yur ability t fcus, and greatly increases the pssibility that yu’ll cut back n wrk.
Part f the danger is that when yu’re languishing, yu might nt ntice the lessening f delight r the decreasing f drive. Yu dn’t catch yurself slipping slwly int alneness; yu’re indifferent t yur indifference. When yu can’t see yur wn suffering, yu dn’t seek help r even d much t help yurself.
S what can we d abut it? Peple wh became mre fcused n their wrk managed t avid languishing. Interrupted attentin is an enemy f engagement and excellence. T g beynd languishing, give yurself sme uninterrupted time. It clears ut cnstant distractins and gives us the freedm t fcus. And try starting with small wins by fcusing n a challenge that matters t yu – an interesting prject, a wrthwhile gal, r a meaningful cnversatin.
We still have a lt t learn abut what causes languishing and hw t cure it, but naming it might be a first step. It culd help t defg ur visin, giving us a clearer windw int what had been an unclear experience. It culd remind us that we weren’t alne: languishing is cmmn and shared.
By acknwledging that s many f us are languishing, we can start giving vice t quiet despair and lighting a path ut f the emptiness.
56. Accrding t the passage, which definitin best suits the wrd “languishing”?
A. Staying in ne’s cmfrt zne.
B. Having a vague view f ne’s future.
C. Becming weaker r failing t imprve.
D. Feeling exhausted and withut hpe.
57. Fr thse wh are languishing, they are likely t ________.
A. seek help when they feel they’re suffering
B. deny that they cannt wrk at full capacity
C. give themselves sme uninterrupted time
D. be indifferent t their lack f enthusiasm
58. Which f the fllwing is a ptential slutin t languishing?
A. Remving it frm the spectrum f mental health.
B. Recgnizing the reductin f delight and mtivatin.
C. Imprving attentin span and eliminating distractin.
D. Having a clearer idea abut its cause and effect.
59. Why is it significant t knw that languishing is cmmn and shared?
A. We can cntinue t learn mre abut languishing.
B. We can let the silent despair speak up and find a way ut.
C. We can see it as basically the same as depressin.
D. We can study it as the cmplete ppsite f flurishing.

Eating ut ges a lng way back. The Rmans had their pubs serving set meals and ck shps called thermplia selling ht ready-t-eat dishes. In the Middle Ages, inns wuld prvide buffets f cld meats r rasts t serve the many peple wh didn’t have kitchens. Befre the revlutin in France, there were plenty f places where yu culd eat ut but fine dining was smething enjyed merely by the aristcracy (贵族) in the cmfrt f their wn hmes.
In 18th-century France, while the aristcrats were enjying fd prepared by persnal chefs, cld winters and ppressive taxatin had left mst f the French ppulatin unable t affrd bread. When the starving masses finally tk t the streets f Paris in 1789, cmmnly knwn as the French Revlutin, the aristcrats fled t the cuntryside, leaving their chefs and their fine wines behind. Bth fund their way t the cities’ existing eateries and within a year, a hst f new elegant restaurants with extensive menus had been established.
“These restaurants were a micrcsm (缩影) f the New France,” says David Gilks, a lecturer in Mdern Eurpean Histry at the University f East Anglia. “They were the places where the nuveau riche, wh had prfited frm the revlutin, were t be seen. There were still shrtages f basic fd stuffs in many parts f Paris but in the nicer parts yu wuld see peple enjying fine fd in elegant surrundings.”
In the 1760s the merchants f Paris develped a taste fr light sups knwn as “restratives” r “restaurants”, and dining halls where custmers culd sit at individual tables and have them began ppping up arund the city.
The new pst-revlutinary restaurants tk their names frm these and the new class f French businessmen, bming in the early 19th century when Naplen decided that if peple were enjying fd and drinks, they’d be unlikely t rebel again. Citizens were granted the “freedm f pleasure” and restaurants began t cmpete with each ther. They were featured in travelgues and became turist attractins in their wn right.
“Intended r nt, restaurants can signpst bth the decline and success f an Empire,” says William Sitwell, authr f The Restaurant: A Histry f Eating Out. “The extrardinary advancement f the dining scene f ancient Pmpeii was indicative f the Rman Empire’s visin breadth and bming. The dark restaurant scene f the United Kingdm in the 1940s after Wrld War II shwed quite hw the hrrrs f cnflict had damaged the cuntry’s fd, culture and taste.”
63. Which f the fllwing is a cnsequence f the French Revlutin?
A. Mst persnal chefs were left unemplyed.
B. Eateries fund their way t the cuntryside.
C. Fine dining n lnger just belnged t the aristcrats.
D. There were almst n shrtages f basic fd stuffs in Paris.
64. What can be learned abut the wrd “restaurant” frm the passage?
A. It was cined by the nuveau riche.
B. It riginally referred t a type f fd.
C. It came int being after the French Revlutin.
D. It was first defined as the “freedm f pleasure”.
65. What can be inferred frm William Sitwell’s cmments n restaurants?
A. They are symbls f transfrmatin.
B. They are the result f develpment.
C. They lst their appeal t British peple in the 1940s.
D. They made their first appearance in ancient Pmpeii.
66. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. The natinal visin f eating ut.B. The varying ppularity f restaurants.
C. The unintended purpses f eating ut.D. The histry and evlutin f restaurants.

Garden recycling is a great way t help the envirnment while saving mney and sparking (激发) the imaginatin. There are several ways t recycle in the garden; fr instance, by creating unique garden art frm everyday items. ____67____ Hwever, in keeping with greener living, garden recycling has recently becme mre ppular.
There are several benefits t garden recycling, the mst cmmn f which is saving the envirnment. Reusing everyday items helps keep trash ut f landfills (垃圾填埋场). Recycling materials in the garden is als less expensive and with creativity, making every garden unique. Frm simple husehld items t junkyard castaways r antiques, wuld-be art pieces are all arund us. In rder t ensure items fr garden recycling harmnize within their new setting, it helps t cnsider hw each fits int the surrundings befrehand. ____68____
One f the mst ppular ways t garden recycle is by reusing ld bjects as garden art. Nearly any bject has ptential fr transfrmatin int the garden r elsewhere. ____69____ Frm varius metal bjects like bed frames, bicycles and gates t aluminum washtubs and tire rims, there is ptential fr sculptures, trellises, flwer cntainers and ther interesting fcal pints.
There’s a place fr everything in the garden. Funtains, pnds, and ther water features can be made easily frm fund bjects. ____70____ Turn an ld mailbx int a birdhuse.

Frm tubs, baskets, bts, and even tys, when it cmes t garden recycling, the pssibilities are endless.
IV. Summary Writing (10分)
Directins: Read the fllwing passage. Summarize the main idea and the main pint(s) f the passage in n mre than 60 wrds. Use yur wn wrds as far as pssible.
Are yur children getting n yur last nerve? Did a cwrker’s cmment rub yu the wrng way? There’s n need t plug the steam cming ut f yur ears. In fact, science nw gives yu full permissin t release thse emtins; yu might actually be happier fr it. If that seems cunter-intuitive(违反直觉的), hear us ut. A new study suggests that peple tend t be happier if they can feel and express emtins as they want. That ges fr unpleasant emtins like anger and hatred, t.
An internatinal team f researchers recruited 2,300 university students frm the United States, Brazil, China, Germany, Ghana, Israel, Pland, and Singapre. They then asked the participants t tell them which emtins they desired and which nes they actually felt, and then cmpared thse respnses t hw the participants rated their verall happiness r life satisfactin.
The results shwed an interesting trend. While participants wanted t experience mre pleasant emtins, they reprted higher life satisfactin if the emtins they experienced matched thse they desired. Mre surprising still, 11 percent f peple wanted t feel less f psitive emtins, such as lve and empathy, and 10 percent f peple wanted t feel mre negative emtins, such as hatred and anger.
At first glance, these results might seem cnfusing. But there’s a simple explanatin, accrding t the study’s authrs. Happiness is “mre than simply feeling pleasure and aviding pain,” they write. It is als learning t release negative emtins when yu feel them, instead f ignring them r bttling them up.
“If yu feel emtins yu want t feel, even if they’re unpleasant, then yu’re better ff,” lead researcher Dr Maya Tamir frm The Hebrew University f Jerusalem tld the BBC News website.
