The 26-year-old entrepreneur was on vacation in England four years ago and had to look up at the London Eye Ferries

17、wheel to see it. Hanging above him was a capsule(航天艙) full of diners who were served a new course each time a revolution was made. “I thought that was the coolest thing ever”, he says. Baras, who founded PopUpR in 2012 to promote the idea of pop-up restaurants in the USA, has been studying them ever

18、 since.Pop-ups, which have been around since at least the early 2000s, are open anywhere from a few hours to several months, but their defining feature is that they are temporary. They may be only a tiny part of the $709 billion U.S. restaurant industry, but pop-ups have gotten a boost in recent yea

19、rs as a lower-cost, lower-risk way for entrepreneurs to test the waters. Some restaurant owners see them as a way to renew interest in existing locations. And some struggling cities, like Oakland, California, have turned to them to help revitalize local economies impacted by the recession(衰退).The co

20、ncept has been especially popular with up-and-coming chefs who want to test-drive as a menu concept without investing a fortune in a permanent space. “Your cooks and chefs are really talented, but theyre stuck in the back of somebody elses kitchen cooking somebody elses menu,” says Zach Kupperman, c

21、hief businessman officer and co-founder of Dinner Lab.Chefs in Dinner Lab cook in the middle of space, give a brief introduction about the menu and themselves and then bravely listen to diner feedback afterward. Pop-ups temporary nature also allows restaurateurs to charge a deposit to make sure the

22、diners will show up.Of course, trends in the food industry come and go quickly, and there is no guarantee that diners wont tire of the concept. Some entrepreneurs have resorted to even weirder locations in a former limestone mine, say, or at the top of a crane to keep customers interested. “Its not

23、quite part of the mainstream economy yet.” says Baras.1、What does the underlined part “a revolution was made” in Paragraph One possibly mean?AChefs designed creative dishes.BDiners tasted food in a new and creative way.CThe capsule containing diners made a circle.DGreat changes were made in the food

24、 industry.2、Perspective chefs are drawn to pop-ups due to the fact that _.Apop-ups are becoming increasingly popular with diners worldwideBthey have the desire to explore a safer way to make a livingCtheir investment in pop-ups will bring them a long-lasting fortuneDpop-ups provide a changeable test

25、 field for talented chefs creativity3、The writers purpose of writing the passenger is _.Ato appeal to people to dine out in pop-up restaurantsBto give a brief introduction of pop-up restaurantsCto warn business owners of the appearance of pop-up restaurantsDto foresee the future of pop-up restaurant

26、s development23（8分）That robots, automation, and software can replace people might seem obvious to anyone whos worked in automotive manufacturing. But MIT business scholars Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfees claim is more troubling and controversial. They believe that rapid technological change has

27、 been destroying jobs faster than it is creating them.They believe that technology increases productivity and makes societies wealthier, but it became clear to them that the same technologies making many jobs safer, easier, and more productive were also reducing the demand for many types of human wo

28、rkers. Technologies like the Web, artificial intelligence, and big data are automating many routine tasks. Countless traditional white-collar jobs, such as many in the post office and in customer service, have disappeared.As evidence, Brynjolfsson and McAfee point to a chart on which separate lines

29、represent productivity and total employment in the United States. For years after World War II, the two lines closely tracked each other, with increases in jobs corresponding to increases in productivity. Then, beginning in 2000, the lines diverge; productivity continues to rise steadily, but employ

30、ment suddenly shrinks. By 2011, a significant gap appears between the two lines, showing economic growth with no parallel increase in job creation.United States Productivity and EmploymentBut are these new technologies really responsible for a decade of lackluster (無生氣) job growth? David Autor, an e

31、conomist at MIT who has studied the connections between jobs and technology, doubts that technology could account for such a sudden change in total employment. Moreover, he also doubts that productivity has, in fact, risen steadily in the United States in the past decade. If hes right, it raises the

32、 possibility that poor job growth could be simply a result of a depressed economy. The sudden slowdown in job creation “is a big puzzle,” he says, “but theres not a lot of evidence that its linked to computers.” “To be sure, computer technologies are changing the types of jobs available, but that is

33、 very different from saying technology is affecting the total number of jobs,” he adds. “Jobs can change a lot without there being huge changes in employment rates.”Lawrence Katz, a Harvard economist, says that while technological changes can be painful for workers whose skills no longer match the n

34、eeds of employers, no historical pattern shows these shifts leading to a net decrease in jobs over an extended period. Still, Katz doesnt dismiss the notion that there is something different about todays digital technologies. Though he expects the historical pattern to hold, it is “genuinely a quest

35、ion,” he says. “If technology disrupts enough, who knows what will happen?”1、Which period on the chart strongly supports McAfees claim?A19471967. B19851987.C19972000. D20112013.2、According to David Autor, the change in job growth _.Ais not necessarily caused by technologyBresults from a weakening ec

36、onomyChas no connection with productivityDaffects the current types of jobs3、What is Lawrence Katzs attitude towards the topic?AOptimistic. BDefensive.CObjective. DDisapproving.4、The main purpose of the passage is to _.Ashow the relation between productivity and job creationBdiscuss the effect of te

37、chnological advances on employmentCargue against the wide use of artificial intelligenceDexplain the impact of technologies on productivity24（8分）“One of the reason I find this topic very interesting is because my mom was a smoker when I was younger,” says Lindson-Hawley, who studies tobacco and heal

38、th at the University of Oxford.By studying about 700 adult smokers, she found out that mom quit the right way-by stopping abruptly and completely.In her Study, participants were randomly(隨機地) assigned to two groups. One had to quit abruptly on a given day, going from about a pack a day to zero. The

39、other cut down gradually over the course of two weeks. People in both groups used nicotine replacement, like gum or spray. They also had talk therapy(療法) with a nurse before and after quit day.Six months later, more people who had quit abruptly had stuck with it-more than one-fifth of them, compared

40、 to about one-seventh in the other group. Although these numbers appear low, it is much higher than if people try without support.And the quit rates were particularly convincing given that before the study started, most of the people had said theyd rather cut down gradually before quitting. “If your

41、e training for a marathon, you wouldnt expect to turn up and just be able to run it. And I think people see that for smoking as well. They think, Well, if I gradually reduce, its like practice,” says Lindson-Hawley. But that wasnt the case. Instead of giving people practice, the gradual reduction li

42、kely gave them addiction and withdrawal symptoms(脫癮癥狀) before they even reached the day, which could be why fewer people in that group actually made it to that point. “Regardless of your stated preference, if youre ready to quit, quitting abruptly is more effective,” says Dr. Gabriela Ferreira. “Whe

43、n you can quote a specific number like a fifth of the patients were able to quit, thats acceptable. It gives them the encouragement, I think, to really go for it,” Ferreira says.People rarely manage to quit the first time they try. But at least, she says, they can maximize the odds of success.1、What

44、 dose Lindson-Hawley say about her mother?AShe quit smoking with her daughters helpBShe was also a researcher of tobacco and healthCShe studied the smoking patterns of adult smokersDShe succeeded in quitting smoking abruptly2、What kind of support did smokers receive to quit smoking in Lindson-Hawley

45、s study?AThey were given physical trainingBThey were offered nicotine replacementCThey were encouraged by psychologistDThey were looked after by physicians3、How does Dr. Gabriela Ferreira view the result of Lindson-Hawleys experiment?AIt is encouraging BIt is unexpectedCIt is impractical DIt is misl

47、f. I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons. The work is sometimes difficult. I have seenfamines, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.I

48、n India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children. Some were as young as four years old. They lived in the streets and survived by begging or stealing. But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them. Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children. She cloth

I found an old lady whose house was in ruins, her son was missing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive. But the old lady did not give up hope

50、. For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself. She did not stop until she found her son. He was alive.Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious condition.
