Now she is about to begin her freshman year at the University of California, planning to become a professor.Bom and
25、 raised in San Diegos City Heights neighbourhood, Deka is the daughter of a Somali refugee couple. While some might say Deltas success happened in spite of her background, she would say differently, that her experiences shaped her and inspired her to be the driven, young scientist that she is today.
26、When Deka was eight years old, her mother got a job by studying hard back in school in order to support the whole family. That made Deka realize that education could make a difference to ones life. She spent a lot of time in the library reading books, and didnt do many of the things her peers did, l

DcA group of blue-faced birds step through the grass shoulder to shoulder, red eyes looking around. They look like middle schoolers seeking a cafeteria table
33、at lunchtime. Perhaps they7re not so different.A new study, led by Damien Farine, an ornithologist who studies collective behaviour, shows that the vulturine guineafowl of eastern Africa, like humans, have multilevel societies. In the past, scientists assumed such social structures required a lot of
34、 brainpower. But the pea-brained guineafowl are revealing the faults in that assumption.These large birds wander across the landscape in packs, often walking so closely that their bodies touch. They may fight each other to maintain their strict hierarchies (等级制度),but at other times they engage in fr
35、iendly behaviours like sharing food.Suspecting the guineafowl might have a social structure, Dr. Farine and his colleagues began a thorough study of their society. For a whole year, they made daily observations of 441 birds.Coloured leg bands in unique combinations let researchers tell the black-and
36、-blue birds apart. They also attached GPS devices to the backs of 58 birds, which let them see exactly where every group went, 24 hours a day.The findings of the research suggest that the vulturine guineafowl have a multilevel society.There are groups within groups within the population as a whole.
37、There even seem to be groups of friends within the small groups. This is the first time anyone has observed such a society in a bird.And Dr. Farine emphasizes this particular birds tiny brain size: They dont only have small brains relative to mammals (哺乳动物),they also have quite small brains relative
38、 to other birds, “ he said.According to him, living in this kind of society might actually make it easier to keep track of the social order. For example, if groups are stable and a bird can identify just one or two individuals within a group, it knows which group its looking at - no need for a brain
39、 that can recognize every single animal. Multilevel societies also let animals adjust their group sizes based on whatever challenges theyre facing. Depending on what enemies or resources are around, it might make sense to travel in a combined group rather than a smaller one.“ Having a multilevel str
40、ucture may not require having a large brain, Dr. Farine said. There may be more birds and other animals out there that, although small-brained, have societies as many-leveled as our own.According to the passage, what inspired Dr. Farine to carry out the study?A. The guineafowls social behaviour.B. P
41、revious assumptions about birds.C. His interest in animal brainpower.D. The faults in earlier research.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. The research subjects.B. The research methods.C. The research findings.D. The research equipment.What can be learned from the passage?Complex social systems can
42、be a disadvantage to the guineafowl.The guineafowl are good at recognizing individuals in a group.Birds maintain social order by travelling in combined groups.Small-brained animals can form multilevel societies.【答案】28.A29. B 30. DDFor several decades, there has been an extensive and organized campai
43、gn intended to generate distrust in science, funded by those whose interests and ideologies are threatened by the findings of modern science. In response, scientists have tended to stress the success of science. After all, scientists have been right about most things.Stressing successes isnt wrong,
44、but for many people its not persuasive. An alternative answer to the question “Why trust science? is that scientists use the so-called scientific method. If youve got a high school science textbook lying around, youll probably find that answer in it. But what is typically thought to be the scientifi
45、c method - develop a hypothesis (假设),then design an experiment to test it isnt what scientists actually do. Science is dynamic: new methods get invented; old ones get abandoned; and sometimes, scientists can be found doing many different things.If there is no identifiable scientific method, then wha
46、t is the reason for trust in science? The answer is how those claims are evaluated. The common element in modern science, regardless of the specific field or the particular methods being used, is the strict scrutiny (审查)of claims. Its this tough, sustained process that works to make sure faulty clai
47、ms are rejected. A scientific claim is never accepted as true until it has gone through a lengthy “peer review, because the reviewers are experts in the same field who have both the right and the obligation (责任)to find faults.A key aspect of scientific judgment is that it is done collectively. No cl
48、aim gets accepted until it has been vetted by dozens, if not hundreds, of heads. In areas that have been contested, like climate science and vaccine safety, its thousands. This is why we are generally justified in not worrying too much if a single scientist, even a very famous one, disagrees with th
49、e claim. And this is why diversity in science - the more people looking at a claim from different angles - is important.Does this process ever go wrong? Of course. Scientists are humans. There is always the possibility of revising a claim on the basis of new evidence. Some people argue that we shoul
50、d not trust science because scientists are always changing their minds. While examples of truly settled science being overturned are far fewer than is sometimes claimed, they do exist. But the beauty of this scientific process is that it explains what might otherwise appear paradoxical (矛盾的):that sc
51、ience produces both novelty and stability. Scientists do change their minds in the face of new evidence, but this is a strength of science, not a weakness.How does the author think of the scientific method?A. Stable.B. Persuasive.C. Unreliable.D.Unrealistic.What does the underlined word “vetted” in
52、Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Explained.B. Examined.C. Repeated.D. Released.According to the passage, the author may agree that.A. it is not persuasive to reject those faulty claims B. settled science tends to be collectively overturned C. a leading expert cannot play a decisive role in a scrutiny D.
53、 diversity in knowledge is the common element in science 34. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Put Your Faith in ScienceB. Defend the Truth in ScienceC. Apply Your Mind to ScienceD. Explore A Dynamic Way to Science【答案】31. C 32. B 33. C 34. A第二节(共5小题;每题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,
54、从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。An interview is a discussion with someone in which you try to get information from them.35 There are three basic sub-types of interview: structured interviews, unstructured interviews and semi-structured interviews. 36 Incidentally, C6respondent and informant” ar
55、e words that are sometimes used instead of “interviewee”.A great deal is provided by this personal contact: you are another human being, and interviewees will respond to you, in bodily presence, in an entirely different way from the way that they would have reacted to questionnaires that came throug
56、h their letterboxes or to emails.Most people want to help and give their opinions, and they will usually be energized to help by your physical presence.If you take the trouble to schedule a visit, you can be more or less guaranteed of a response. Most importantly, though, you will be able to relate
57、to interviewees while you are talking to them.You will be able to watch their behaviour which will give you important clues about how they feel about a topic. Because of the primacy of the personal contact, your appearance and tone are important-how do you want to be seen? As one of us? As a person
58、in authority? As an observer? .Or what? 39 However you decide to present yourself, it is good practice of course to try to put the interviewee at ease before the interview begins - to talk about the weather, about your journey, about anything that will break the ice.This is a ready-made support for
59、you.Its nature varies with the nature of the interviews.You will be able to hear and understand what they are saying.Your decision should influence the way that you look, sound and behave.The information may be facts or opinions or attitudes or any combination of these.Each involves the interviewer
60、in fact-to-face contact or telephone contact with another person. G. You will be using these clues to make informed guesses about what the interviewees might really mean.【答案】35.E36. F 37. A 38.
