I've been in an 18-year lve-hate relatinship with a black walnut tree.
It's a special tree.In late September r early Octber，falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls （头骨） f peple nearby.Umbrellas in the yard are a must while dining in early August，and as fr me，I wear my bike helmet while wrking in the garden.
The black walnut als gives ff a chemical substance as a cmpetitive strategy.It's pisnus t several plants.There have been many new plants that I brught hme with hpes that maybe the black walnut wuld accept them，but they died.

Smetimes I think abut my life withut the black walnut.I can't imagine a spring withut the birds wh arrive every year and ludly sing their sngs befre the sun rises.I'd miss falling asleep n lazy weekend afternns as I lk up int its leaves.
Every spring，I wnder what the seasn hlds：What are the chances f being kncked uncnscius while barbecuing？Like any gd relatinship，I'll never be pleased.I'm stuck with this tree，s I'll listen t its needs and give it the space it requires.In return，my walnut tree ffers cver t wildlife and a reminder t me.

Just as a hungry brain craves （渴望） fd，a lnely brain craves peple.A new brain study demnstrates this.After being left alne，it shws peple's brains wuld be activated at the sight f ther peple.The actin was in the same brain regin that speeds up when a hungry persn sees fd.
Livia Tmva，a neurscientist，wh studies hw the brain prduces mental activities，and her clleagues began this study.They recruited 40 peple.On ne day，the participants had t fast — nt eat anything at all — fr 10 hurs.On anther day，the same peple were placed in a rm fr 10 hurs.They culdn't see anyne.N friends，n family and n scial media.They weren't even allwed t check their email.After bth days，Tmva and her clleagues put the peple in a MRI machine.It shws activity in the brain by tracking hw much bld is flwing t each regin.
At the end f each day，the participants shwed high activity in a brain area called the midbrain.The scientists were interested in tw，small areas within it.Bth areas prduce dpamine，a chemical that is imprtant in craving and rewards.The tw areas activated when hungry participants saw pictures f tasty pizza r juicy hamburgers.After the vlunteers had been islated，thse brain areas became active when they saw scial activities they missed. It might be playing sprts r chatting with friends.
The midbrain plays an imprtant part in peple's mtivatin t seek fd r friends.In fact，it respnds t fd and scial signals even when peple aren't hungry r lnely.But hunger and lneliness increased the reactins and made peple's respnses specific t the thing they were missing.And the mre hunger r islatin the vlunteers said they were experiencing，the strnger the activity in this part f the brain.Tmva and her clleagues published their results Nvember 23 in Nature Neurscience.

D. It decreases respnses t lst friends.
10.What des the underlined "it" in paragraph 3 refer t？______

C. A vlunteer.D. A hamburger.
11.Accrding t the study，what similarity is fund between hunger and lneliness？______

Imagine attending a jb interview and being rejected withut a single questin — simply because yur face "didn't fit." Yu'd likely accuse the cmpany f discriminatin，but what if facial features culd genuinely predict jb perfrmance？This thught-prvking questin lies at the cre f a recent study by Marius Guenzel frm the University f Pennsylvania and his research team.
Persnality assessments are a standard part f mdern recruitment （招聘）， yet they ften rely n self-reprted surveys r interviews where candidates may tailr answers t impress emplyers.Guenzel's team tk an innvative apprach：using an AI algrithm.During their experiment，the researchers analyzed the prfile phts f 96，000 graduates，extracting what they termed the "Pht Big Five"：agreeableness，cnscientiusness （尽责性）， extraversin （外向性）， neurticism （神经质）， penness.By crss-referencing these AI-detected traits with real-wrld labr-market data，they fund that facial analysis culd predict thse graduates' incme and career mbility.Hwever，they emphasized that its predictive pwer is limited，serving nly as a cmplementary surce f infrmatin rather than a decisive factr.
Despite this finding，the study has sparked intense debates and raised significant cncerns.Fr ne，cmbined patterns btained frm large datasets cannt guarantee accurate predictins f individual perfrmance.Fr anther，legal and ethical risks std ut：anti-discriminatin laws in many regins make hiring decisins based n facial characteristics a ptential legal vilatin.Mre unnticeably，if facial traits are cnsidered fixed，the value f persnal grwth and self-imprvement is weakened — why strive t change if yur face already signals certain traits t emplyers？
Experts like Manish Raghavan frm MIT Slan Schl f Management nte that mst cmpanies remain wary f adpting such AI tls.He argues that peple are mre willing t accept decisins based n unchanging traits nly when there is clear lgic.This lgic，hwever，is far frm prven in the case f facial analysis in recruitment，thus making public acceptance difficult.As such，human interactin in interviews — where candidates can shwcase their abilities and persnality directly — remains irreplaceable.
12.What is the functin f the first paragraph？______
A. T shw the steps f a study.
B. T intrduce the tpic f the text.
C. T give examples f discriminatin.
D. T describe a jb interview scene.
13.What can facial analysis frecast abut surveyed graduates accrding t Guenzel's study？______
A. Their academic achievements.
B. Their ability t impress interviewers.
C. Their "Pht Big Five" persnality traits.
D. Their future earnings and jb develpment.
14.What prblem may AI facial analysis cause in the hiring prcess？______
A. Having n predictive pwer at all.
B. Vilating labr prtectin laws in mst regins.
C. Causing ver-reliance n AI fr candidate assessment.
D. Discuraging career-related self-imprvement.
15.Which f the fllwing wuld be the best title fr the passage？______
A. Pht Big Five：A Persnality Assessment Tl.
B. AI-pwered Facial Test：Predictrs f Career Success.
C. Facial Traits in Hiring：T Sn t Trust.
