Are yu preparing fr a standardized English exam? D yu find the listening sectin particularly challenging?
The wrld f standardized examinatins t assess candidates’ abilities in the English language has grwn rapidly, especially in the last 30 years. Mst f these exams include a listening paper, in which a number f micr-skills are tested, such as listening fr detailed infrmatin, understanding an authr’s attitude and mre. Despite the different types f exams ut there, they all share many things. We can call them “skills”, as they can be applied while taking the listening test.
Yu need t exercise yur skills t make “educated guesses” althugh yu wn’t ever have super pwers. Mst standardized tests give yu sme time t read ahead. Yu must use this time wisely, as this is crucial t predicting as much as pssible a number f things. Yu shuld quickly ask yurself: What is their relatinship? Where are they? Why are they talking? What are their tnes?
By ding this, yu will be able t set the situatin and expect specific vcabulary which might be used in the cming listening materials. All this can be dne very quickly. If the passage cntains gaps that yu must fill ut, yu shuld try t predict the type f wrd r expressin (nun, adjective, verb, etc.). D nt try t read everything in detail; nly fcus n the key wrds. With practice, yu will be able t predict with a certain level f precisin. Even if yu find it difficult, trying t make a predictin will always help yu cncentrate n the task, thus making it a lt mre manageable and understandable.
Becming a successful candidate takes time and practice. Unless yu have had enugh practice in English, yu wn’t prbably be able t get yur desired scre. Keep in mind that mst standardized exams are mre abut skills than knwledge.
35. The underlined term “educated guesses” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced with _____.
A. effrts t achieve high scresB. quick decisins abut the chice
C. better ptins using the same wrdsD. predictins with a certain level f precisin
36. What shuld be stressed mre in a standardized listening test accrding t the passage?
A Skills.B. Vcabulary.C. Scres.D. Knwledge.
37. Wh d yu think the passage is intended fr?
A. Teachers.B. Managers.C. Speakers.D. Candidates.

GENETIC testing cannt tell teachers anything useful abut an individual pupil’s educatinal achievement. That is the cnclusin f a study that lked at hw well s-called plygenic scres fr educatin predict a persn’s educatinal achievements, based n a lng-term study f thusands f peple in the UK. “Sme peple with a very lw genetic scre are very high perfrmers at age 16. Sme are even in the tp 3 percent,” says Tim Mrris at the University f Bristl, UK.
And while Mrris expects the accuracy f plygenic scres fr educatinal achievements t imprve, he desn’t think they will ever be gd enugh t predict hw well an individual will d. Even relatively simple qualities such as height are influenced by thusands f genetic variants, each f which may nly have a tiny effect. It has been claimed that plygenic scres can be used t make useful predictins, such as a persn’s likelihd f develping varius diseases. One cmpany is even ffering embry screening (screening f an unbrn baby in the very stages f develpment) based n plygenic scres fr disease risk.
Sme researchers - ntably Rbert Plmin f King’s Cllege Lndn - think that schls shuld start using plygenic scres fr educatinal achievement. In mst cases, the scres may reflect qualities such as persistence as well as intelligence.
T assess the usefulness f plygenic scres in educatin, Mrris and his clleagues calculated them fr 8,000 peple in Bristl wh are part f a lng-term study knwn as the Children f the 90s. The participants’ genmes have been queued and their academic results are available t researchers. Amng ther things, the team fund a crrelatin f 0.4 between a persn’s plygenic scre and their exam results at age 16. But there wuld need t be a crrelatin f at least 0.8 t make useful predictins abut individuals, says Mrris.
Plmin, hwever, argues that the results supprt his pinin. “A crrelatin f 0.4 makes it the strngest plygenic predictr in the behaviural sciences,” says Plmin. “It’s s much strnger than a lt f ther things we base decisins n. S it’s a very big finding.”
Mrris says schls already have access t ther predictrs that are mre accurate, such as a pupil’s earlier test results. Lking at parents’ educatinal achievements is als a better predictr f a pupil’s academic results than studying their genme, his results shw. Prviding teachers with an extra predictr based n genetics wuld just cnfuse matters, says Mrris, and the cst cannt be justified.
38. In paragraph 2, Mrris talks abut “height” in rder t tell readers that _____.
A. sme qualities are hardly affected by any genetic variants
B. sme qualities are influenced by thusands f genetic variants
C. genetic scres are useful in predicting ne’s ptential diseases
D. genetic scres can help children imprve their scres at schl
39. Hw did Mrris prve the effect f plygenetic scres in educatin?
A. By prviding ppsite examples.B. By explaining hw the genme wrks.
C. By listing findings frm anther scientist.D. By presenting facts and data frm research.
40. Accrding t Plmin, a crrelatin f 0.4 is reliable because it is _____.
A. useful in telling yu hw intelligent and persistent children are
B. useful in predicting peple wh might struggle academically
C. strnger cmpared t ther factrs in behaviural sciences
D. strngly crrelated t children’s academic achievements
41. Mrris suggested that schls shuld _____.
A. study every pupil’s genmes
B. spend sme mney n genetic tests
C. knw abut parents’ educatinal achievements
D. prvide teachers with students’ genetic infrmatin
D
Cnvincing smene t change their mind is really the prcess f cnvincing them t change their tribe (部落). If they abandn their beliefs, they run the risk f lsing scial ties. Yu can’t expect smene t change their mind if yu take away their cmmunity t.
The way t change peple’s minds is t becme friends with them t cmbine them int yur tribe, t bring them int yur circle. Nw, they can change their beliefs withut the risk f being abandned scially.
The British philspher Alain de Bttn suggests that we simply share meals with thse wh disagree with us: “Sitting dwn at a table with a grup f strangers has the incmparable and dd benefit f making it a little mre difficult t hate them withut punishment. Prejudice and cnflict between grups f peple frm different natins r races feed ff abstractin. Hwever, during a meal, smething abut handing dishes arund, unflding napkins (餐巾纸) at the same mment, even asking a stranger t pass the salt makes us less likely t hld the belief that the utsiders wh wear unusual clthes and speak in distinctive accents deserve t be sent hme r attacked. Fr all the large-scale plitical slutins which have been prpsed t ease racial r cultural cnflict, there are few mre effective ways t prmte tlerance between suspicius neighburs than t frce them t eat supper tgether.”
Perhaps it is nt difference, but distance that prduces tribalism and unfriendliness. As prximity increases, s des understanding. I am reminded f Abraham Lincln’s qute, “I dn’t like that man. I must get t knw him better.” Facts dn’t change ur minds. Friendship des.
The Japanese writer Haruki Murakami nce wrte, “Always remember that t argue, and win, is t break dwn the reality f the persn yu are arguing against. It is painful t lse yur reality, s be kind, even if yu are right.”
When we are in the mment, we can easily frget that the gal is t cnnect with the ther side, cperate with them, befriend them, and integrate them int ur tribe. We are s caught up in winning that we frget abut cnnecting. It’s easy t spend yur energy labeling peple rather than wrking with them.
The wrd “kind (family and relatives)” riginated frm the wrd “kin (ld fashin f family and relatives).” When yu are kind t smene, it means yu are treating them like family. This, I think, is a gd methd fr actually changing smene’s mind. Develp a friendship. Share a meal. Gift a bk. Be kind first, be right later.
42. Peple are likely t change their mind when they _____.
A. change their beliefsB. are made friends with
C. mve t a new cmmunityD. are given smewhere t g
43. What des the underlined wrd “prximity” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Nearness.B. Actin.C. Cmmunicatin.D. Pliteness.
44. The authr qutes frm Haruki Murakami t imply that _____.
A. breaking dwn ne’s reality is easy
B. kindness is mre imprtant than right
C. arguing and winning are nt imprtant
D. lsing ne’s identity is a painful prcess
45. Accrding t the passage, sharing meals is effective in building cnnectins because it ____.
A. pleases peple with different beliefs r accents
B. makes peple fcus n eating rather than cnflicts
C. brings benefits t the peple having dinner tgether
D. prmtes understanding and tlerance amng peple

阅读下面的短文和问题，根据短文内容，在相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。答语要意思清楚，结构正确，书写工整。
At the start f nearly every dctr's visit, chances are that yu will be asked t get yur weight measured fr that day's exam recrd - and yu wuld be hard-pressed t find a persn whse physician has nt brught up his r her weight at sme pint, and dctrs' recmmendatins t drp punds are still extremely cmmn. But many cnversatins arund weight have becme a barrier, nt a help, in the campaign t make peple healthier.
Higher bdy masses are assciated with increased risk fr hypertensin, diabetes and crnary disease. Many studies have shwn that heavier peple are at higher risk fr these illnesses. But the big picture is nt the whle picture. Researchers have identified a smaller grup f verweight peple cnsidered t be ''metablically (新陈代谢地) healthy'' - meaning they d nt exhibit high bld pressure r ther diseases.
Research ver the past tw decades has shwn that health prfessinals have negative attitudes tward fat peple. Sme refuse t see these patients at all, as the Suth Flrida Sun Sentinel reprted in 2011. Such practices keep peple frm regular annual exams and prevent the finding f serius underlying cnditins. Nt nly that but dctrs' appintments with fat patients are shrter n average, and they rutinely use negative wrds in their medical histries f such peple. And research suggests that the stress f being a heavy persn may cause metablic changes that may lead t mre pr health utcmes.
T achieve better health utcmes, dctrs shuld fcus n behavirs that have prven psitive utcmes fr health instead f the weight-centric health care practice. And peple f all sizes are entitled t evidence-based factrs that empwer them and keep them healthy. Lifestyle changes, such as eating fruits, vegetables and whle grains, alng with increased physical activity, can imprve bld pressure, levels and sensitivity - ften independently f changes in bdy weight.

Are yu preparing fr a standardized English exam? D yu find the listening sectin particularly challenging?
The wrld f standardized examinatins t assess candidates’ abilities in the English language has grwn rapidly, especially in the last 30 years. Mst f these exams include a listening paper, in which a number f micr-skills are tested, such as listening fr detailed infrmatin, understanding an authr’s attitude and mre. Despite the different types f exams ut there, they all share many things. We can call them “skills”, as they can be applied while taking the listening test.
Yu need t exercise yur skills t make “educated guesses” althugh yu wn’t ever have super pwers. Mst standardized tests give yu sme time t read ahead. Yu must use this time wisely, as this is crucial t predicting as much as pssible a number f things. Yu shuld quickly ask yurself: What is their relatinship? Where are they? Why are they talking? What are their tnes?
By ding this, yu will be able t set the situatin and expect specific vcabulary which might be used in the cming listening materials. All this can be dne very quickly. If the passage cntains gaps that yu must fill ut, yu shuld try t predict the type f wrd r expressin (nun, adjective, verb, etc.). D nt try t read everything in detail; nly fcus n the key wrds. With practice, yu will be able t predict with a certain level f precisin. Even if yu find it difficult, trying t make a predictin will always help yu cncentrate n the task, thus making it a lt mre manageable and understandable.
Becming a successful candidate takes time and practice. Unless yu have had enugh practice in English, yu wn’t prbably be able t get yur desired scre. Keep in mind that mst standardized exams are mre abut skills than knwledge.
35. The underlined term “educated guesses” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced with _____.
A. effrts t achieve high scresB. quick decisins abut the chice
C. better ptins using the same wrdsD. predictins with a certain level f precisin
36. What shuld be stressed mre in a standardized listening test accrding t the passage?
A Skills.B. Vcabulary.C. Scres.D. Knwledge.
37. Wh d yu think the passage is intended fr?
A. Teachers.B. Managers.C. Speakers.D. Candidates.

GENETIC testing cannt tell teachers anything useful abut an individual pupil’s educatinal achievement. That is the cnclusin f a study that lked at hw well s-called plygenic scres fr educatin predict a persn’s educatinal achievements, based n a lng-term study f thusands f peple in the UK. “Sme peple with a very lw genetic scre are very high perfrmers at age 16. Sme are even in the tp 3 percent,” says Tim Mrris at the University f Bristl, UK.
And while Mrris expects the accuracy f plygenic scres fr educatinal achievements t imprve, he desn’t think they will ever be gd enugh t predict hw well an individual will d. Even relatively simple qualities such as height are influenced by thusands f genetic variants, each f which may nly have a tiny effect. It has been claimed that plygenic scres can be used t make useful predictins, such as a persn’s likelihd f develping varius diseases. One cmpany is even ffering embry screening (screening f an unbrn baby in the very stages f develpment) based n plygenic scres fr disease risk.
Sme researchers - ntably Rbert Plmin f King’s Cllege Lndn - think that schls shuld start using plygenic scres fr educatinal achievement. In mst cases, the scres may reflect qualities such as persistence as well as intelligence.
T assess the usefulness f plygenic scres in educatin, Mrris and his clleagues calculated them fr 8,000 peple in Bristl wh are part f a lng-term study knwn as the Children f the 90s. The participants’ genmes have been queued and their academic results are available t researchers. Amng ther things, the team fund a crrelatin f 0.4 between a persn’s plygenic scre and their exam results at age 16. But there wuld need t be a crrelatin f at least 0.8 t make useful predictins abut individuals, says Mrris.
Plmin, hwever, argues that the results supprt his pinin. “A crrelatin f 0.4 makes it the strngest plygenic predictr in the behaviural sciences,” says Plmin. “It’s s much strnger than a lt f ther things we base decisins n. S it’s a very big finding.”
Mrris says schls already have access t ther predictrs that are mre accurate, such as a pupil’s earlier test results. Lking at parents’ educatinal achievements is als a better predictr f a pupil’s academic results than studying their genme, his results shw. Prviding teachers with an extra predictr based n genetics wuld just cnfuse matters, says Mrris, and the cst cannt be justified.
38. In paragraph 2, Mrris talks abut “height” in rder t tell readers that _____.
A. sme qualities are hardly affected by any genetic variants
B. sme qualities are influenced by thusands f genetic variants
C. genetic scres are useful in predicting ne’s ptential diseases
D. genetic scres can help children imprve their scres at schl
39. Hw did Mrris prve the effect f plygenetic scres in educatin?
A. By prviding ppsite examples.B. By explaining hw the genme wrks.
C. By listing findings frm anther scientist.D. By presenting facts and data frm research.
40. Accrding t Plmin, a crrelatin f 0.4 is reliable because it is _____.
A. useful in telling yu hw intelligent and persistent children are
B. useful in predicting peple wh might struggle academically
C. strnger cmpared t ther factrs in behaviural sciences
D. strngly crrelated t children’s academic achievements
41. Mrris suggested that schls shuld _____.
A. study every pupil’s genmes
B. spend sme mney n genetic tests
C. knw abut parents’ educatinal achievements
D. prvide teachers with students’ genetic infrmatin
D
Cnvincing smene t change their mind is really the prcess f cnvincing them t change their tribe (部落). If they abandn their beliefs, they run the risk f lsing scial ties. Yu can’t expect smene t change their mind if yu take away their cmmunity t.
The way t change peple’s minds is t becme friends with them t cmbine them int yur tribe, t bring them int yur circle. Nw, they can change their beliefs withut the risk f being abandned scially.
The British philspher Alain de Bttn suggests that we simply share meals with thse wh disagree with us: “Sitting dwn at a table with a grup f strangers has the incmparable and dd benefit f making it a little mre difficult t hate them withut punishment. Prejudice and cnflict between grups f peple frm different natins r races feed ff abstractin. Hwever, during a meal, smething abut handing dishes arund, unflding napkins (餐巾纸) at the same mment, even asking a stranger t pass the salt makes us less likely t hld the belief that the utsiders wh wear unusual clthes and speak in distinctive accents deserve t be sent hme r attacked. Fr all the large-scale plitical slutins which have been prpsed t ease racial r cultural cnflict, there are few mre effective ways t prmte tlerance between suspicius neighburs than t frce them t eat supper tgether.”
Perhaps it is nt difference, but distance that prduces tribalism and unfriendliness. As prximity increases, s des understanding. I am reminded f Abraham Lincln’s qute, “I dn’t like that man. I must get t knw him better.” Facts dn’t change ur minds. Friendship des.
The Japanese writer Haruki Murakami nce wrte, “Always remember that t argue, and win, is t break dwn the reality f the persn yu are arguing against. It is painful t lse yur reality, s be kind, even if yu are right.”
When we are in the mment, we can easily frget that the gal is t cnnect with the ther side, cperate with them, befriend them, and integrate them int ur tribe. We are s caught up in winning that we frget abut cnnecting. It’s easy t spend yur energy labeling peple rather than wrking with them.
The wrd “kind (family and relatives)” riginated frm the wrd “kin (ld fashin f family and relatives).” When yu are kind t smene, it means yu are treating them like family. This, I think, is a gd methd fr actually changing smene’s mind. Develp a friendship. Share a meal. Gift a bk. Be kind first, be right later.
42. Peple are likely t change their mind when they _____.
A. change their beliefsB. are made friends with
C. mve t a new cmmunityD. are given smewhere t g
43. What des the underlined wrd “prximity” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Nearness.B. Actin.C. Cmmunicatin.D. Pliteness.
44. The authr qutes frm Haruki Murakami t imply that _____.
A. breaking dwn ne’s reality is easy
B. kindness is mre imprtant than right
C. arguing and winning are nt imprtant
D. lsing ne’s identity is a painful prcess
45. Accrding t the passage, sharing meals is effective in building cnnectins because it ____.
A. pleases peple with different beliefs r accents
B. makes peple fcus n eating rather than cnflicts
C. brings benefits t the peple having dinner tgether
D. prmtes understanding and tlerance amng peple

At the start f nearly every dctr's visit, chances are that yu will be asked t get yur weight measured fr that day's exam recrd - and yu wuld be hard-pressed t find a persn whse physician has nt brught up his r her weight at sme pint, and dctrs' recmmendatins t drp punds are still extremely cmmn. But many cnversatins arund weight have becme a barrier, nt a help, in the campaign t make peple healthier.
Higher bdy masses are assciated with increased risk fr hypertensin, diabetes and crnary disease. Many studies have shwn that heavier peple are at higher risk fr these illnesses. But the big picture is nt the whle picture. Researchers have identified a smaller grup f verweight peple cnsidered t be ''metablically (新陈代谢地) healthy'' - meaning they d nt exhibit high bld pressure r ther diseases.
Research ver the past tw decades has shwn that health prfessinals have negative attitudes tward fat peple. Sme refuse t see these patients at all, as the Suth Flrida Sun Sentinel reprted in 2011. Such practices keep peple frm regular annual exams and prevent the finding f serius underlying cnditins. Nt nly that but dctrs' appintments with fat patients are shrter n average, and they rutinely use negative wrds in their medical histries f such peple. And research suggests that the stress f being a heavy persn may cause metablic changes that may lead t mre pr health utcmes.
T achieve better health utcmes, dctrs shuld fcus n behavirs that have prven psitive utcmes fr health instead f the weight-centric health care practice. And peple f all sizes are entitled t evidence-based factrs that empwer them and keep them healthy. Lifestyle changes, such as eating fruits, vegetables and whle grains, alng with increased physical activity, can imprve bld pressure, levels and sensitivity - ften independently f changes in bdy weight.
