26、 know this because I stutter. If it takes me a while longer to say a word, its not because I cant remember the word; its because the neural G申经的） pathway that transforms words in my head into sounds in my mouth is wired differently. And differences, of course, are the best way to get negative attent

27、ion in our society. Taking extra time to get my words out can surely be frustrating, but thats nothing compared to the misery of dealing with peoples reactions.Almost all children who stutter are discouraged from speaking in one way or another. Its usually not as direct as someone walking up to them

28、 and saying, “Hey, stuttering kid! Keep your mouth shut!” But when your voice causes adults and peers to snicker （窃笑）or roll their eyes, its pretty discouraging.Growing up, I learned to avoid speaking whenever possible. I hated what came out of my mouth, full of awkward breaks and pauses. I figured

29、whatever future I had, it probably involved a vow of silence.Today Fm a touring author and comedian. It took me 30-something years to get over stuttering. Did I stop stuttering? No! I couldnt stop if I wanted to. But I stopped wanting to stop. Instead of wasting all my time and energy trying to meet

30、 unattainable standards, I learned that its OK to stutter. And I learned by example. I attended the National Stuttering Association conference and met all kinds of people who stutterpeople who didnt hate themselves, who didnt silence themselves. They stuttered, and they were OK with it! I remember w

31、atching them and thinking, Thats who I want to be!Theres a popular saying in comedy: Your weakness is your strength. When I first entered my local open-mic scene, I was quickly met with some smart guys looking to score a cheap laugh at my expense. I remember introducing myself to one comedian and st

32、uttering on my name, as I usually do. Eager to demonstrate his smartness, he replied, Is that Nina with five Ns? No, I said, its Nina with two Ns! Just like that, I had created a joke as the result of someone making fiin of my stutter.To this day, whenever I need inspiration for a new joke, I just t

33、hink about all the ridiculous comments I get from non-stuttering people. Its a comedy gold mine!34. It takes the author longer to say a word because she has .A. a comparatively low IQB. trouble in organizing ideasC. a relatively small brainD. problems in her neural system35. What annoys the author m

34、ost about her stuttering is .A. the unfriendly reactions of othersB. the difficulty in memorising wordsC. her unpromising future as a stuttererD. her embarrassing pauses during talks36. The author got over stuttering by .A. adjusting her attitude towards itB. getting help from non-stutterersC. telli

35、ng herself constantly to stop itD. silencing herself whenever possible37. Paragraph 5 is mainly about the author5s .A. success as a comedianB , respect for other comediansC. resistance to others5 strengthD. acceptance of her imperfectionCThe ancient tale of the Country Mouse and the Town Mouse was o

36、nly the first to emphasize rural folks supposed simplicity when compared with more sophisticated urbanites. However, neuro-scientistsannounce that, in fact, it is city living that can dull the wits.The new study led by Dr. Spiers at Nantes University describes how they used a dataset from 4 million

37、people of a computer game, which tests navigating skills by asking players to memorise a map showing the location of checkpoints and then measuring how well players can find them, guided only by their mental map. Dr. Spiers and his colleagues examined the 4 million people from 38 countries, and foun

38、d that the strongest indicator of a high score was a players ageolder people performed relatively poorly, which agrees with what researchers know about age-related cognitive decline. But the benefit of rural living was strong enough to offset some of that. Data showed that a 70-year-old who grew up

39、in the countryside had the navigational abilities of an average 60-year-old across the dataset.There is a huge gap between the navigation skills of rural and city people, and the researchers think they know why. Dr. Spiers says that the brains navigational abilities probably weaken in the less chall

40、enging city environment because they are not being used as much. Although cities may appear more elaborate, they also feature more clues to help residents find their way, such as numbered streets. In the countryside, however, one field tends to look much the same as another, so there are fewer exter

41、nal landmarks to help guide the way.Neuroscientists already know that living and working in more complex environments can influence the function and structure of the brain. Brain scans of London taxi drivers, who have gained an encyclopedic memory of the city5 s streets, show that they tend to have

42、an enlarged hippocampusa region of the brain acting as a neural GPS, sensing position and path on an internal map of the environment.The harmful effect of city living on navigation is probably most serious in people under 1618, Dr. Spiers says, because their still-developing brains respond and chang

43、e the most according to external stimuli. And while people who live in cities with young children should not be alarmed, the study does raise some interesting ideas for urban planners: keep their city designs not so simple perhaps. And for everyone else, it might be an idea to turn off maps on the p

44、hone.38. The study led by Dr. Spiers shows that .A. the seniors score higher at computer gamesB. rural life benefits peoples sense of directionC. participants are better at finding ways in citiesD. the young remember checkpoints better in maps39. The underlined word uoffset，in Para. 2 most probably

45、means .A. achieveB. confirmC. reduceD. replace40. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To introduce a new way of driver training.B. To expose the drawbacks of living in the urban area.C. To show the contrast between lives in the country and city.D. To present environments* impact on ones ability to

46、 locate places.41. What is the best tide for the passage?A. Lost in the CityB. Brain Weakened in CitiesC. Navigating to the CountrysideD. The Negative Effects of City LivingDCommunities across the world are starting to ban facial recognition technologies. The efforts are well intentioned, but bannin

47、g facial recognition is the wrong way to fight against modem surveillance （监 视）.Generally, modem mass surveillance has three broad components: identification, correlation and discrimination.Facial recognition is a technology that can be used to identify people without their consent. Once we are iden

48、tified, the data about who we are and what we are doing can be correlated with other data. This might be movement data, which can be used to follow” us as we move throughout our day. It can be purchasing data, Internet browsing data, or data about who we talk to via email or text. It might be data a

49、bout our income, ethnicity, lifestyle, profession and interests. There is an entire industry of data brokers who make a living by selling our data without our consent.Its not just that they know who we are; its that they correlate what they know about us to create profiles about who we are and what

50、our interests are. The whole purpose of this process is for companies to treat individuals differently. We are shown different ads on the Internet and receive different offers for credit cards. In the future, we might be treated differently when we walk into a store, just as we currently are when we

51、 visit websites.It doesnt matter which technology is used to identify people. Whats important is that we can be consistently identified over time. We might be completely anonymous （匿名的）in a system that uses unique cookies to track us as we browse the Internet, but the same process of correlation and

52、 discrimination still occurs.Regulating this system means addressing all three steps of the process. A ban on facial recognition wont make any difference. The problem is that we are being identified without our knowledge or consent, and society needs rules about when that is permissible.Similarly, w

53、e need rules about how our data can be combined with other data, and then bought and sold without our knowledge or consent. The data broker industry is almost entirely unregulated now. Reasonable laws would prevent the worst of their abuses.Finally, we need better rules about when and how it is perm

54、issible for companies to discriminate. Discrimination based on protected characteristics like race and gender is already illegal, but those rules are ineffectual against the current technologies of surveillance and control. When people can be identified and their data correlated at a speed and scale

55、 previously unseen, we need new rules.Today, facial recognition technologies are receiving the force of the tech backlash （抵制），but focusing on them misses the point. We need to have a serious conversation about all the technologies of identification, correlation and discrimination, and decide how mu

56、ch we want to be spied on and what sorts of influence we want them to have over our lives.42. According to Para. 2, with facial recognition, .A. one5s lifestyle changes greatlyB. ones email content is disclosedC. ones profiles are updated in timeD. ones personal information is released43. We can lea

57、rn from the passage that .A. discrimination based on new tech surveillance is illegalB. different browsing data bring in different advertisementsC. using mobiles anonymously keeps us from being correlatedD. data brokers control the current technologies of surveillance44. The underlined part “the poi

58、nt，, in the last paragraph probably refers to .A. peoples concern over their safetyB. the nature of the surveillance societyC. proper regulation of mass surveillanceD. the importance of identification technology45. The author wrote this passage to .A. call for banning facial recognition technologies

59、B. advocate the urgent need for changes in related lawsC. inform readers of the disadvantages of facial recognitionD. evaluate three broad components in modem mass surveillance第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。Once considered an optional lifestyle choice, recycling has

60、become a commonplace activity in most areas. One type of recycling, called downcycling, involves re-purposing a material into a new product of lesser quality. 46Downcycling is also known as downstream recycling. It is most common in terms of industrial materials. These products lose their value as t

61、hey are recycled, which limits their capacity for new use. 47 White writing paper, for example, is often downcycled into cardboard; once downcycled to this new form, it can no longer be used as white paper again. Another example of downcycling includes the use of plastic components.Giving products a

62、 new life is considered a good way to reuse materials and avoid waste. Once downcycled to their full capacity, however, these materials are eventually so degraded that they cannot be reused further. Since downcycled products are considered of lower quality than their original form, they cannot be us

63、ed in remaking their original product.48 Plastic, glass, and aluminium products coded with the number one may be remade into something of equal or greater value. This type of recycling is known as upcycling, and represents the forward compatibility of recycled components. Materials available for dow

64、ncycling, such as water, juice, and milk bottles, are coded with the number two. 49Items available for downcycling often require additional chemicals, energy, and other treatments in order to transform them into something usable. Durable plastic products in particular require much additional treatme

65、nt. Trash bins, tables, and chairs are also considered materials with a high energy cost to recycle.When a product reaches a code seven, it is considered no longer recyclable. 50 Since these products can no longer be made into new ones, they will either have to be reused or discarded, typically in a

66、 landfill.A. These recycled materials may often be put into new use.B. It can include varying grades of plastic, paper products, and other materials.C. Their recycled form is typically both weaker and cheaper than their original one.D. They may not be used to contain food-grade items again upon bein

67、g downcycled.E Products are provided with codes to determine their grades and whether or not they may be recycled.F. A code will determine the type of the recycled materials and give an idea of how many times they can be recycled.G. This usually occurs when a substance is blended with other substanc

78、king a break from my schoolwork, a clear melody flowed in from the outside. It magically refreshed my tired mind and aroused my curiosity.Hoping to find its source, I went to the balcony. A young man was playing his violin on the balcony across from mine, his eyes half closed in full enjoyment of th

79、e tune. Amazed by his playing, I listened on and was absorbed.Unexpectedly, to the melody of the violin was added a wonderful chord of guitar from another neighbor. At this scene, I couldnt help singing along and was surprised when a girl also joined with her pure voice of a child. We hardly knew on

80、e another, but in our perfect harmony, we felt like old friends connected by our shared love of music. Our little concert went on and on, fascinating the whole community.With a closing chord on the guitar, the concert ended. We smiled and waved to each other as if we had just woken up from a sweet d

Since the outbreak of the virus, everything has gone virtual, so I hurried to my balcony to check it out.The melody led me to locate

83、the violinist in seconds: a teenage boy playing My Motherland and I on his balcony. Although it was not perfect, the organic sound of the violin and his deep affection stunned me. I was lost in his music. Before I realized it, a guitar joined! The guitar from a young lady downstairs gave the music a

84、 more lively tone. I couldnt help humming the familiar tune when I suddenly heard someone singing clearly and cheerfully. There was another girl volunteering as the vocalist of this mini band! Inspired by all of them, I started singing loudly. The four of us staged a live balcony concert as if on a
