Dont run less often. Dont run less distance. And dont be persuaded by under powered medical studies a habit that really could harm your health. I say this in response to a recent study suggesting that too much strenuous jogging shortens your life. The conclusions, published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, have received wide attention this week.Lets start by taking a closer look at what the study actually says. The researchers asked Danish runners about the speed, frequency and duration of their workouts, categorizing 878 of them as light, moderate or strenuous joggers. Ten years later, the researchers checked government records to see how many of them had died. Happily, only 17 had. While this was good news for the surviving runners, it was bad news for the researchers, because 17 was clearly too few deaths to discern whether the risk of death was related to running intensity. Nonetheless, the study claimed that too much jogging was associated with a higher mortality rate. It is based on 40 people who were categorized as “strenuous joggers” among whom only two died. As Alex Hutchinson of Runners World wrote, “Thank goodness a third person didnt die, or public health authorities would be banning jogging.” Moreover, the researchers do not even report whether those two deaths were from causes that could plausibly be related to running. Indeed, none of the comparisons between those who run a lot versus a little, frequently versus infrequently, or fast versus slow, were statistically significant, even after adjusting for potential factors like age, gender, education, diabetes, smoking and drinking. The researchers acknowledge this lack of significance, but confounded the issue by pointing to a different question. Instead of focusing on the differences between light, moderate and heavy joggers, they ask instead whether each group of runners had a lower death rate than an altogether different group, a separate sample of 413 non-runners. There is even less to these findings than meets the eye, as the researchers did not compare runners with non-runners. Just as important, other evidence suggests that running, like other forms of exercise, benefits health. There may be an amount of running so great as to damage health, but, if so, its probably far greater than four hours per week. Mr. Hutchinson, a physicist-turned-writer, has concluded, “Running an hour a day is certainly no less healthy, and probably a bit healthier, than running less.” Armed with that more accurate assessment of the science, I hope to see you on the running trails.21. What is the structure of this passage? a. organize opposite findings and confirm the idea b. put forward the authors suggesting idea c. gather facts to analyze the experiment d. reveal the result of the recent medical study A. b d c a B. b a c d C. d c b a D. d b c a22. According to the passage, the following can prove the recent study unconvincing EXCEPT_? A. The study didnt explain the exact cause of two deaths among strenuous joggers. B. The American College of Cardiology isnt the authority in medical study. C. There are no comparisons for controlled factors and potential factors. D. The study excluded the differences between runners and non-runners.23. What does the author really try to express? A. People are easy to believe what they want to hear. B. Mortality rate was highest among those running most. C. People should get a sense of what we are learning. D. Running is a habit good for peoples health.BWhat is great art? On the one hand, we can all see that great art is old art which is called great. But how do we know which art of our own times is great, and which will be forgotten? And who decides? These are important questions, for the great art of the past often was not considered great during its own time. When Shakespeare and Charles Dickens were writing, for example, most critics considered them as hack (平庸的) writers with little or no literary ability. Similarly, Van Gogh and many of the other Impressionist painters of the late nineteenth century were not allowed to participate in events involving what were thought to be the real painters of the time, and often they were very poor. Yet today their paintings often sell for millions of dollars, while those so-called real painters are now barely remembered.So what makes great art? Can, for example, rock music be great art? Music videos? Cartoons and comics? Those who call themselves critics of the fine arts often have been the last to recognize great art in the past, and we can probably expect this to be the situation today. Critics often dont recognize great art because they tend to be prejudiced against what is popular. Popular works, whether they are novels, movies, or comics, are usually considered to be produced for the sake of money only, and not for the sake of art. But popularity, it seems to me, is one of the three signs that a present-day work of art may come to be thought of as great. The other two are that it is groundbreaking, and that it is inherently (內(nèi)在的) beautiful.Many works have one or even two of these qualities of being popular, unusual, and beautiful. But having all the three often will mean that a work of art will someday be seen to be great, though it may take a good spoonful of time, such as a century or two, to know for sure. 24. The author used the first paragraph to_.A. arouse readers curiosity and serve as a leadingB. introduce some real painters to the readersC. raise the questions the writer wants to answerD. explain what kind of art will become popular25. The author used the examples of Shakespeare, Charles Dickens and Van Gogh to show_.A. these masters works have some shortcomings and meritsB. these masters wouldnt have been so successful without the criticsC. truly beautiful works of art are never understood when first createdD. great masters are often not acknowledged while they were alive26. According to the passage, great works _.A. may be presented in different formsB. are usually thought highly of by criticsC. are thought valuable because of their sale priceD. will become valueless if theyre not acceptedCSix months before she died, my grandmother moved into an old peoples home She was sitting in the living room with about 15 other residents, mostly women, half of them asleep. The room was clean and warm, with flowers and pictures, and the care assistants were kind and cheerful. A general knowledge quiz show was on the television and the only other sounds were snoring and embarrassing digestive noises. People moved only when they needed to be helped to the bathroom. Gran talked a lot about how much she missed seeing her grandchildren, but I knew from my sister that they hated going to visit her there and, to be perfectly honest I couldnt wait to get away myself.Nowadaysthereislessandlesscontact betweentheoldandtheyounginanincreasing numberofcountries.Therearemanyreasons forthis,includingthebreakdownofthe extendedfamily,workingparentswithno timetocareforageingrelations,familiesthat havemovedaway,andsmallerflatswithno roomforgrandparents.Buttheresultisthe same-increasingnumbersofchildrenwithout grandparentsandoldpeoplewhohaveno contactwithchildren.Andmoreoldpeoplewho arelonelyandfeeluseless,alongwithmore andmorefamilieswithyoungchildrenwho desperatelyneedmoresupport.itsamajor probleminmanysocieties.Thatswhyintergenerationalprogrammes, designedtobringtheoldandtheyoung together,aregrowinginpopularityalloverthe world, supported by UNESCO and other local andinternationalorganizations.Thereare examples of successful initiatives all over the world.UsingyoungpeopletoteachITskillsto olderpeopleisoneobviousexample.Using oldpeopleasvolunteerassistantsinschools isanother,perhapsreadingwithchildrenwho needextraattention.Thereareschemesthat involveolderpeoplevisitingfamilieswhoare childrenforawhiletogivethetiredmothera break.Oradoptagrandparentschemesin whichchildrenwritelettersorvisitalonelyold personintheirarea.Thereareevenholiday companiesthatspecializeinholidaysfor childrenandgrandparentstogether.OnesuccessfulschemeinLondonpairs youngvolunteerswitholdpeoplewhoare losingtheirsight.Theyoungpeoplehelp withpracticalthingssuchaswritingletters, readingbankstatementsandhelpingwith shopping,andtheolderpeoplecanpasson theirknowledgeandexperiencetotheiryoung visitors.Forexample,aretiredjudgemaybe pairedwithateenagerwhowantstostudylaw.

The start of a new year is the perfect time to invest in building your tribe. Here are a few of the techniques thatve helped me meet friends, business partners, influencers, mentors and more.1. Never eat aloneI was in San Francisco back when Keith Ferrazzis Never Eat Alone book came out, and I took its message to heart, arranging to eat meals with anyone whod agree to meet me. Doing so had a huge impact on my career. 31 . I also got over any lingering fears I had about making conversation with people I didnt know.2. 32 As far as specific networking tactics go, theres not much more I can tell you than to go out there, meet people and build relationships. It really is about being all action, not all talk.However, I do see people making a lot of different mistakes in the actual execution of their networkingand thats what I want to touch on here. Heres an example: you get up the courage to go to a local networking event and actually talk to a few people. You have some great conversations, but after the event is over, you do nothing. Guess what kind of relationship is going to come from that encounter? You got itnothing.3. Keep the consistency of contactingOne contact does not make a network. Nobody will get to know you and trust you if you only meet once. 33 . Even simple touches, such as forwarding an interesting email or sharing a social post, can build a relationship.4. 34 Theres a place for broad networking, but you also need to invest in approaching people who can help you now or in the future. That doesnt just mean potential clients, though. Connecting with prospective customers, for example, could give you valuable insight when youre planning your next product or service.5. Stop being a selfish network 35 youre meeting new people with the hopes of getting something from them, whether its leads, sales or even just mentorship and guidance. But when you network from this selfish place, you make it impossible for genuine connections to form. Nobody wants to hang out with the guy whos constantly self-promoting without giving in return.A. I know your networking is not for fun.B. I did meet a ton of new connections.C. You must make your networking advancing.D. Take networking into action.E. Broaden networking as much as possible.F. Connect with the right people.第3部 分：語(yǔ)言運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分40分）第1節(jié) ：完形填空（共20小題，每小題1.5分，滿分30分） 閱讀下面短文，掌握其大意，然后從2140題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題紙上將該選項(xiàng)標(biāo)號(hào)涂黑。AlphaGo has struck again, defeating Ke Jie, the worlds number one Go player, 3-0. After his _36_, the young Chinese prodigy said AlphaGo sees the _37_ of Go while he could only see a small area around him. This win, coupled with last years victory over Lee Se-dol, shines a light on the awe-inspiring _38_ of technology and places AlphaGo among the greatest Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems created to date.The AI industry is certainly making great advancements, _39_ surprising the public with new and interesting tools and making life _40_. Twenty years ago, just connecting to the Internet was a _41_. Now, we can do just about anything on our phones, from online banking to _42_ shows. The shifting sands of technology have placed so many paths in front of humanity that it is hard to _43_ even the immediate future.We may talk about how AI can make our lives _44_, but we also consider the risks. Many stories and films _45_ around the theme of AI vs. human. One that comes to my mind now is The Terminator. The film is about an AI system called Skynet, which was _46_ to protect humans. What the programmers did not expect was that Skynet began to _47_. It came to the conclusion that humans were a danger to its existence, so it started a global nuclear war and tried to “_48_” humanity.AlphaGos recent achievements highlight the _49_ that technology and AI can bring about. They also serve to remind us o
