In his third season in 2019, my sons team never lost more than three str

18、aight games. It was a typically good youth hockey season. There was happiness, boasting, celebration, pizza. He improved as a player, but did not much change as a person. However, what happened the next year added its story to the legends of sporting incompetence. Not merely weak but prettily bad, t

19、his team lost 40 of their first 50 games, most of the defeats coming in the course of two losing streaks (连败). For a time, I worried that these failures would kill my childs love of the game. But thats not what happened. As bad as it got, the losing was clarifying. It weeded out the kids who were in

20、 it less for the game than the glory, leaving behind those with a real passion for the sport. What started as a list of 17 of the team was cut down to 12. It was especially educational for the kids. It taught them a great truth of the world: For everyone good, there is someone better. Whats more, th

21、e kids were learning the game in a way that only losing can teach. Each player got to play everywhere, to learn and appreciate the role of every position on the ice. They kept an eye on their opponents too, studying the secret of their good performance. In an effort to break the streak, they went ba

22、ck to basics, accepted the wisdom of the hockey ancients: If playing like a team, they can defeat a collection of all-stars; If doing small and unappreciated tasks well, they can get the goal. This new team had character and could never be counted out, no matter the score. They had learned the most

23、important lesson: You can lose without being beaten. They squeaked into the state tournament, then made it all the way to the final, where the winner was decided in overtime (加时赛). When they narrowly lost that game and went into the handshake line, it was not as runners-up but as a team that had bee

28、nteens.Nine schools in North Ayrshire will today start taking lunch payments by scanning the faces of pupils, claiming that the new system speeds up queues and is more secure than the card payments and fingerprint scanners they used previously. “Its the fastest way of recognising someone at the till

29、,” said David Swanston, the managing director of CRB Cunninghams, the company that installed the systems. “In a secondary school you have around a 25-minute period to serve potentially 1,000 pupils. So we need fast productivity at the point of sale.” He said the average transaction time was cut to f

30、ive seconds per pupil.However, privacy campaigners say there is little need to spread out facial recognition technology, which has been criticized for often operating without gaining approvals from the owners. Swanston argued that CRB Cunninghams system, which uses cameras to check against coded fac

31、e-print modes stored on servers at the schools, was different from live facial recognition systems that scan through crowds to identify faces. Live facial recognition has previously caused debate after being used by schools for security or to monitor attendance.North Ayrshire committee said that 97

32、percent of children or their parents had given agreement for the new system. “Pupils often forget their PINs and unfortunately some have also been the victim of PIN cheating, so they are supportive of the planned developments and appreciate the benefits to them,” the council said.But some parents sa

33、id they were unsure whether their children had been given enough information to make their decision, and suggested that peer pressure had also played a role.28.

36、ecognition system.C.The facial recognition system can benefit the pupils who are forgetful.D.Schools speed up canteen queues with facial recognition technology.DHuman language is made possible by an impressive gift for vocal learning. Most animals cannot learn to imitate sounds at all. Though some s

37、pecies can learn how to use natural sounds in new ways, they dont show a similar ability to learn new calls. Among all nonhuman vocal learners across the branches of life, the most impressive are birds.I wouldnt say they have language in the way linguistic experts define it, says the neuroscientist

38、Erich Jarvis. But I would say they have a primitive form of what we might call spoken language.Birdsong appears to have a lot in common with human speech, such as conveying information intentionally and using simple forms of some of the elements of human language. One key element of human language i

39、s semantics, the connection of words with meanings. Over the past four decades, numerous studies have shown that many bird species use different alarm calls for different attackers. Recent studies suggest that the order of some birds calls may impact their meaning. This could represent a primary for

40、m of the rules governing the order and combination of words and elements in human language known as syntax, as illustrated by the classic dog bites man vs man bites dog example.And the parallels run deeper, including similar brain structures that are not shared by species without vocal learning. Jar

41、vis and his team have tried to compare the brain structures in songbirds and humans. I think we humans tend to overestimate how different we are, he says. What has happened is that humans and songbirds have evolved a new forebrain circuit for learned sounds that has taken control of the brain stem c

42、ircuit for natural sounds. There is an assumption that species more closely related to us (e. g. monkeys) are going to be most like us. And that is true for many features, he says. But, as you see, this is not true for every feature. With all these similarities in mind, its reasonable to ask if bird

43、s themselves have language. It may come down to how you define it. But anyway, when the story of the evolution of language is finally complete, be prepared to thank the birds.32. What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A. To show different capacities for imitating sounds.B. To illustrate the major featur

44、es of vocal learning.C. To imply the uniqueness of birds as vocal learners.D. To explain the origin of species differences.33. What can we learn about birdsong from the third paragraph?A. It is superior to human language.B. It lacks meaningful order of calls.C. It has evolved from human speech.D. It

45、 shows certain grammatical features.34. What can we infer from paragraph 4?A. Evolved brain circuit paves the way for vocal learning.B. Humans possess biological uniqueness in vocal learning.C. Closely related species are less likely to share parallels.D. Circuit for natural sounds disables new call

46、 learning.35. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. Bird Brains Suggest How Vocal Learning EvolvedB. Birds Are Stretching the Boundaries of LanguageC. Human Speech and Birdsong Share Biological RootsD. Human Speech Could Have Evolved from Birdsong第二节 (共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白

48、the motivation behind the study, researchers note that with environmental issues such as global warming, more studies are focusing on the relationships between humans and nature to find solutions to these problems, and the future of the planet lies in the hands of children and their actions.

50、ls and plants._38_They also found that the more concerned children were about the environment and nature, the more likely they were to be happy. So, exposure to nature is related to active behaviors and happiness of children. What does that mean to adults? As we all know, children usually tend to fo
