11、，选出最佳选项。21（6分）To err is human. Society is suffering from an inability to acknowledge as much.For individuals, errors are painful. The trick, then, is to err well: to recognize mistakes and learn from them. Worryingly, humanity may be getting worse at admitting its mistakes.Few enjoy the feeling of b

12、eing caught out in an error. But real trouble starts when the desire to avoid a punishment leads to a refusal to deal with contrary evidence. Economists often assume that people are sensible. When faced with a new fact, these people should update their view of the world to take better decisions in f

13、uture. Yet years of economic research confirms that people frequently disregard information that conflicts with their view of the world.Why should that be? Last year Roland Benabou, of Princeton, presented a framework for thinking about the problem. In many ways, beliefs are like other economic good

14、s. People spend time and resources building them, and get value from them: some beliefs make owners feel good and show their public identity; other beliefs provide value by shaping behaviorfor example, religious asceticism(禁欲主义) can help one avoid unhealthy habits.Because beliefs, however, are not s

15、imply tools for making good decisions, but are treasured in their own right, new information that challenges them is unwelcome. People often engage in “motivated reasoning” to manage such challenges. Mr Benabou classifies this into three categories. “Strategic ignorance” is when a believer avoids in

16、formation offering conflicting evidence. In “reality denial”， troubling evidence is rationalized(合理化)：real estate investors might make up fanciful theories for why prices should behave unusually, and supporters of a disgraced politician might claim the negative news to be fake. And lastly, in “selfs

17、ignalling”， the believer creates his own tools to interpret the facts in the way he wants: an unhealthy person, for example, might decide that going for a daily run proves he is well.“Motivated reasoning” is a cognitive bias(偏见). Not all the errors it leads to are costly: praising the performance of

18、 ones supported football team despite contradictory evidence does little harm. But when biases are broadly sharedwithin financial world or political partiesdanger arises. Motivated reasoning helps explain why viewpoints polarize (两极分化) even as information is more easily available than ever before.Wo

19、rk by Mr Benabou suggests that groupthink is highest when people within groups face a shared fate: when choosing to break from a group is unlikely to spare an individual the costs of the groups errors or bring much individual benefit. The incentive(动力) to engage in motivated reasoning is high as a r

20、esult. Even as the fact on a particular issue is obvious, parties can still become increasingly polarized. That, in turn, can make it harder still for a member of one party to get any benefit from breaking from a group. Indeed, the group has an incentive to silence independent voices.Public statemen

21、ts of regret are risky in a rigidly polarized world. Admissions of error can not only annoy partners but also provide opportunities for opponents. But it is rarely in the interest of those in the right to pretend that they are never wrong.1、According to the passage, beliefs are similar to economic g

26、 on the mosquito hit list, summer nights can be synonymous with mosquito bites. Yet others hardly ever get bitten. So how do the bloodthirsty insects select their victims?The insects tastes may seem arbitrary. However, research shows that when mosquitoes make their choices between potential victims,

27、 it all comes down to scent (气味).“Mosquitoes are attracted by carbon dioxide and heat, which everyone gives off. But mosquitoes are also attracted by certain scents,” says Karl-Martin Vagn Jensen, the head of research at the Department of Agricultural Science at Arhus University.According to Jensen,

28、 it has not yet been confirmed exactly what the scents in question are. But research does indicate that some scents are more attractive to mosquitoes than others.“All the lab employees rubbed petri dishes (培养皿) against their stomachs. In that way, their scents were put on the dishes, which were then

29、 put in a container full of mosquitoes,” he says. “The mosquitoes repeatedly landed on some of the petri dishes, but didnt go anywhere near the others.”Perhaps taking inspiration from popular fiction, there are also those who consider garlic as an excellent repellent (驱虫剂) against the winged bloodsu

30、ckers. According to the researcher, this strategy may not be entirely fruitless. “As far as I know, there is no scientific proof that eating garlic works. But there may be something to the theory that its possible to mask scent with garlic,” he says. The only reliable method of protection against mo

31、squitoes is to use repellents that are sold over the counter. It contains some smells that can confuse the mosquitoes. When the mosquito comes closer, it uses smell, heat and carbon dioxide to decide whether to bite. But if it is confused by a repellent, it will never get that far.1、Which of the fol

32、lowing can best replace the phrase underlined in Paragraph 2?ABe equal to. BBe accessible to. CBe harmful to. DBe beneficial to.2、What can we infer about the scents attracting mosquitoes?AMosquitoes can be attracted by various scents.BSome kinds of scents appeal to mosquitoes in particular.CThe lab

33、employees use petri dishes to deposit their scents.DMosquitoes are arbitrary when it comes to different scents.3、What is the main idea of the last Paragraph?AA new strategy is used in researching repellents.BGarlic is considered to be an excellent repellent.CUsing repellents is an effective way agai

34、nst mosquitoes.DThe inspiration against mosquitoes is from popular fiction.4、Where is the text most probably taken from?AScience fiction. BA biography. CA medical report. DA research paper.23（8分） Why have so many awards ceremonies appeared recently? Shakespeare never won a prize, nor did Leonardo da

35、 Vinci or Adam Smith or Charles Dickens.It would be possible to say, however, that in the past, scientists and artists could win patronage from rich people-a king or a lord would give the artist or scientist money to have them paint their palaces or help them develop new ways of making money. With t

36、he change in social systems across the world, this no longer happens. A lot of scientific research is now cither funded by the state or by private companies. Perhaps awards ceremonies are just the most recent face of this process.However, there is more to it than that. When a film wins an Oscar, man

37、y more people will go and see it or buy the DVDWhen a writer wins the Nobel prize, many more people buy his books. When a group win the MTV awards, the ceremony is seen by hundreds of thousands of people across the world. The result? The group sell lots more records.Most awards ceremonies are now sp

38、onsored by big organizations or companies. This means that it is not only the person who wins the award who benefits but also the sponsors. The MTV awards, for example, are great for publicising not only music but also MTV itself！On the surface, it seems to be a win-win situation, with everyone bein

39、g happy, but let me ask you a question-how far do you think that publicity and marketing are winning here, and how much genuine recognition of achievement is taking place?1、Why are some successful people like Shakespeare mentioned at the very beginning of the passage?ATo show great admiration.BTo pr

42、nding friends in the school cafeteria a piece of cake. “Sit With Us” helps students who have difficulty finding a place to sit find a welcoming group in the lunchroom. The app allows students to recognize themselves as “ambassadors,” thereby inviting others to join them. Ambassadors can then post “o

43、pen lunch” events, which signal to anyone seeking company that theyre invited to join the ambassadors table.Natalie Hampton, a 16-year-old from California, is the designer of Sit With Us; which was posted on September 9. She was inspired to create it after she ate alone her entire seventh grade year

44、. The situation left Hampton feeling vulnerable and made her a target for bullying (欺负).Hampton, now a junior, is attending a different school and is trying socially. Yet, the memory of sitting alone and being bullied still affects her, especially since she knows her experience isnt an isolated one.

45、 Hampton said the reason why she felt an app like this was necessary, is because it prevents kids from being publicly rejected and being considered social outcasts by their classmates. “This way its in secret Its through the phone. No one else has to know,” she explained, “And you know that youre no

46、t going to be rejected once you get to the table.”When students especially the “cool kids” stand up to builying, it has an important effect. During a 2015-2016 school year, over 50 New Jersey middle schools provided their most socially able students with social media tools and encouragement to deal

47、with it, and saw a reduction in student conflict reports by 30 percent.Hampton said that since she opened the app last week, shes already getting positive responses from her classmates. “People are already posting open lunches at my school,” she told the program. “So Im happy that things are already

48、 kicking off with a great start.”1、Who may need Sit With Us?AA student lonely when eating. BA student with bad eating habits.CA student liking creative activities.
