This passage is probably taken from a(an)_A. textbook B. instruction C. poster D. reportBWhen I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was a delicacy(美味). One of my fathers buddies, Bernie, was a successful fruit-and-vegetable wholesaler, who operated a warehouse in St. Paul.Every summer, when the first watermelons rolled in, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernies warehouse and take up our positions. Wed sit on the edge of the dock, feet dangling（摇晃）, and lean over, minimizing the volume of juice we were about to spill on ourselves.Bernie would take his machete（刀）, crack our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then wed bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart-the reddest, juiciest, firmest, most seed-free, most perfect part-and throw away the rest.Bernie was my fathers idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that what my father admired about Bernies wealth was less its substance than its application. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. Others are rich without ever being more than a paycheck ahead.If you dont take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and chomp into lifes small pleasures, your career is probably overwhelming your life.For many years, I forgot that lesson Id learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.Well, Ive relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the accomplishments of others and to take pleasure in the day. Thats the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw the rest away.Finally, I am rich.24. Why did the authors father think Bernie was a rich man?A. Because Bernie was a successful businessman. B. Because his father admired Bernies wealth.C. Because Bernie was good at making friends. D. Because Bernie knew how to fully enjoy life.25. What did the author learn from Bernie?A. Being free is what he pursues. B. Being rich is a state of mind.C. A lot of money makes him happy. D. He likes paying all the bills.26. According to the text, what does “the heart of the watermelon” mean to the author?A. Making a lot of money. B. Having more watermelons.C. Being a wholesaler. D. Enjoying every day.27. Whats the purpose of the text?A. To introduce a successful person in business. B. To warn us of the hardships of becoming rich. C. To remind us of the true meaning of richness. D. To give tips on how to work with others. CMost of us are already aware of the direct effect we have on our friends and family. But we rarely consider that everything we think, feel, do, or say can spread far beyond the people we know. Conversely(相反地), our friends and family serve as conduits(渠道) for us to be influenced by hundreds or even thousands of other people. In a kind of social chain reaction, we can be deeply affected by events we do not witness that happen to people we do not know. As part of a social network, we go beyond ourselves, for good or ill, and become a part of something much larger.Our connectedness carries with it fundamental implications(影响) for the way we understand the human condition. Social networks have value precisely because they can help us to achieve what we could not achieve on our own. Yet, socialnetwork effects are not always positive. Depression, obesity, financial panic, and violence also spread. Social networks, it turns out, tend to magnify(放大) whatever they are seeded with.Partly for this reason, social networks are creative. And what these networks create does not belong to any one individualit is shared by all those in the network. In this way, a social network is like a commonly owned forest: we all stand to benefit from it, but we also must work together to ensure it remains healthy and productive. While social networks are fundamentally and distinctively human, and can be seen everywhere, they should not be taken for granted.If you are happier or richer or healthier than others, it may have a lot to do with where you happen to be in the network, even if you cannot recognize your own location. And it may have a lot to do with the overall structure of the network, even if you cannot control that structure at all. And in some cases, the process feeds back to the network itself. A person with many friends may become rich and then attract even more friends. This richgetricher dynamic means social networks can dramatically reinforce two different kinds of inequality in our society: situational inequality and positional inequality.Lawmakers have not yet considered the consequences of positional inequality. Still, understanding the way we are connected is an essential step in creating a more just society and in carrying out public policies affecting everything from public health to the economy. We might be better off vaccinating(接种疫苗) centrally located individuals rather than weak individuals. We might be better off helping interconnected groups of people to avoid criminal behavior rather than preventing or punishing crimes one at a time.If we want to understand how society works, we need to fill in the missing links between individuals. We need to understand how interconnections and interactions between people give rise to wholly new aspects of human experience that are not present in the individuals themselves. If we do not understand social networks, we cannot hope to fully understand either ourselves or the world we inhabit.28. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A. We cant be easily affected by strangers.B. We are connected and form a social network.C. We have negative effects on other social members.D. We will not make a difference in a specific group.29. Why is a social network like a commonly owned forest?A. Because it remains healthy and productive.B. Because it tends to magnify negative things.C. Because it is creative and shared by people in the whole society.D. Because what it creates can be enjoyed by everyone in the network.30. We can learn from paragraph 4 that _A. whether we are richer depends on the number of friends we makeB. the wealth we possess has nothing to do with individual continuous effortsC. sometimes our success may be largely due to our position in social networksD. we wont succeed unless we fully control the overall structure of the network31. Whats the authors purpose in writing the passage?A. To introduce the characteristics of social networks.B. To urge people to understand how our society works.C. To show the significance of understanding social networks.D. To explain the possible consequences of ignoring social networks. DIn the mid-2000s, Waze Mobile co-founder Ehud Shabtai received a cutting-edge(尖端的) gift from his girlfriend: a GPS. The expensive gift was supposed to be helpful. But straight out of the box, it was already out of date.Shabtai, a coding enthusiast, had an immediate reaction to reinvent. Shabtais solution? To build an app. With 50 million monthly active users globally and nearly 400,000 superusers who function much like Wikipedia volunteer editors(editing maps rather than words), Waze Mobile caught the eye of Google as a revolutionary approach to navigation (导航).Acquired by Google in 2020, Wazes value mainly lies in its high rate of user involvement. Unlike traditional navigation apps that simply show directions, Waze asks its users to report accidents and other road conditions in real time, so other users can avoid the traffic by using an alternative route.The goal behind Wazes approach is an ambitious one: not just avoid traffic, but end it altogether. Waze is finding new ways to put its loyal and active user base to use to make that vision a reality, including a plan to make carpooling(拼车) cool.To be sure, traffic jams are troubling people all over the world. Waze has been quietly ahead of the game for some time. In 2020, when Waze was just a small digital-mapping business with limited resources, it had something Google Maps and other competitors didnt: richer GPS guidance thanks to its stream of live traffic reports from users.These users were the basis of Shabtais plan to solve for his GPS devices “silent” hardware: he grounded the app in software that could be perpetually updated by users, anywhere and anytime.Waze Carpool is going straight to the heart of traffic jams, trying to get more drivers off the road and into carpools. The app has already connected tens of thousands of rideseekers with drivers willing to ferry them along a shared route, and that trend could be the answer to a traffic-free future.32. What did Shabtai do when he found his girlfriends gift out of date?A. He improved it.B. He took it apart. C. He put it away .D. He used it anyway.33. What sets Waze Mobile apart from traditional navigation apps?A. It has the most users. B. It can indicate directions.C. It reports road conditions in real time.D. Most users help edit its words.34. What does the underlined word in paragraph 6 probably mean?A. DifficultlyB. CarefullyC. GreatlyD. Constantly 35. What is mainly talked about in the text?A. The rise of carpooling B. An advanced navigation app. C. The development of Google. D. Traffic problems in the world.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的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。How to Remember What You ReadReading is important.

At this time, Wilbur wa
