16、 better society.D. They open up fair opportunities.BSoft cries came from the back seat about halfway through road trip home. Allison heard her 2-year-old daughters voice asking: “Ruff? Ruff?” She suddenly realized her daughters favorite toy dog, Ruff, had been left behind at the Doubletree, a hotel

17、in the capital. Allison said she felt terrible about forgetting her daughter Junipers comfort companion. As soon as the family unloaded the car that night, she called the hotel and learned that Ruff was in the lost-and-found and would be mailed to them in a day or two.Three days later, a box arrived

18、 at the Allisons home addressed to Juniper. Inside, next to Ruff, she found a tin of cookies, a note and some photos, which showed how Junipers toy dog had spent her solo vacation at the Doubletree. “Dear Juniper,” the note read, “thanks for letting us borrow Ruff for a day! Dont worry, she didnt wo

19、rk hard and we gave her plenty of playtime! Hope you and Ruff visit us again soon! Love, Doubletree Team.” The funny photos were taken by front-desk clerk Maria. The photos showed her talking on the phone, using a computer, hanging out at the hotel swimming pool and sleeping in the middle of a king-

20、size bed.“Juniper couldnt stop laughing as she looked at the photos,” said Allison, who runs a photography business. “The love and care they put into doing this is unbelievable. A lot of times, when kids lose their toys or toy animals at a hotel, they might never see them again.”She decided to write

24、Careless MotherCWhen Im surfing the Web, I want to be attracted by articles on Europes political history, but I end up reading trivia (瑣事) such as a menu from a Michelin restaurant. Why am I not curious about the things I want to be curious about? Curiosity feels as if its outside your control, but

25、if you understand what causes curiosity, you might be able to direct it a little bit better.Humans will give up the known benefit to explore the unknown. In one experiment, subjects were asked tochoose one of four photos, each carrying some chance of paying a cash prize. Photos appeared again and ag

26、ain, so subjects learned to pick the best-paying. But when a novel photo appeared, they chose it quite more often. This preference for novelty is the reason why producers regularly change product packaging and advertising.Were super curious when we sense that the environment offers new information t

27、o add to what we already know. Note that your brain calculates what you might learn in the short-termyour long-term interests are ignored. That s why a cardiac surgeon (心臟外科醫(yī)生) who is excited about her job will find a conference presentation on the operation boring if her brain decides that the talk

28、 wont add to her knowledge. However, when her friend persuades her to attend a lecture on arts, her brain may calculate that this will be a rich source of informationand she finds herself interested.Why not just search for topics you truly want to learn about at present? That sounds logical, but a s

29、earch for a topic like universe will lead to thousands of results. And there is no way of knowing which offers the just-right match to your present knowledge that will maintain (維持) your curiosity. Youll probably end up like the surgeon at the boring conference talk.Albert Einstein advised a young s

30、tudent to never lose a holy curiosity. But the challenge is changing its focus from something short-lived to something more lasting.28. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. It seems difficult to control our curiosity.B. Its no hard task to fully understand curiosity.C. Trivia can always attra

31、ct everyones attention.D. Europes political history is too boring to focus on.29. Why does the cardiac surgeon find attending the art lecture interesting?A. She is tired of her present job.B. She often attends art exhibition.C. She finds it can expand her knowledge.D. She considers it does good to h

32、er work.30. What can we learn from this text?A. Subjects were more likely to choose repeated photos.B. Well-matched results offer no way to maintain our curiosity.C. Einstein suggested it was challenging to awaken the short-term curiosity.D. Keeping our curiosity focused on the long-term interests i

33、s quite an effort.第二節(jié) (共 5 小題；每小題 2 分，滿分 10 分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選入能填入空白處的最佳選項，選項中有兩項為多余項。Which came first, the chicken or the egg? 31Philosophers used it as an excuse to argue about cause and effect. Whats more, its what is known as a paradoxa situation or statement that appears to present contrary fac

34、ts, both of which can logically be true.Some might say the chicken came first, since you cant have an egg without a chicken to lay it. But others might argue the egg came first, since all chickens begin life inside of an egg. A paradox, right? 32“Itspretty easy to understand,” said Jasmina Wiemann,

35、a scientist at Yale University. “The egg is much older, evolutionarily(進化地) , than the chicken.”Chickens, as we all know, probably became domesticated (馴養(yǎng)) about 10,000 years ago. 33Theseanimals are known as jungle fowl or Gallus. 34Dinosaurs, birds, reptiles and even mammals that lay eggs evolved a

36、bout 300 million years ago, Wiemann said. This pushes the origins of the egg back even further.By the way, if you thought it strange to see mammals are put into a group with egg-laying animals, you should know that egg-laying is part of our evolutionary history. And female humans today still produce

37、 eggs through a process called ovulation. The soft eggs without shell stay inside of humans. 35A. Eggs existed even long before this.B. This question has its roots in ancient Greece.C. The answer remains mysterious even if you ask a specialist.D. Eatable eggs came into being hundreds of millions of

38、years ago.E. The answer is rather simple if you talk to an ancient expert about it.F. But the animals that they developed from date back to 21 million years ago.G. Even stranger, some mammals still reproduce by laying eggs that survive outside the body.第三部分 英語知識運用 (共兩節(jié)，滿分 50 分)第一節(jié) 完形填空 (共 20 小題；每小題
