I was born in 1990-the year of the white horse. A girl born under this zodiac(生肖) is believed to have a wild, steed-like(骏马般的)spirit that will block her fortunes, bringing her family trouble. These beliefs were planted in my mind as a girl growing up in South Korea. I was repeatedly told to fight against my steed-like spirit and instead try being still, gentle, and quiet.
Actually, when I was young, I loved exploring the mountainous trails behind our house, examining the various soil layers in nearby fields, and generally running wild outdoors. I often returned home with soiled clothes.
In high school, I settled on a quiet career choice: I would become a lawyer. However, when I was accepted into a pre-law program, I found the courses boring. That’s when a teacher said, “You could always get a science degree, and go back into law. ”
I took her advice and landed in the United States to study geology(地质学). Shortly thereafter, though, culture shock set in. I was not ready for the intense physical requirements of my field courses. One 6-week summer course required strenuous(费劲的)hikes, camping in extreme heat, and heavy lifting. My cultural upbringing had discouraged such “wild” activities and I had never gone on extended hikes or camps before. But other women in my program were an inspiration. I saw beauty in their strength, and I wanted to be like them.
By the end of my undergraduate degree, I had fully accepted my love of being a tough girl. And I’d given up on the idea of becoming a lawyer. My parents didn’t quite know what to make of my adventurous field life. But they were supportive when I told them about the change in my career direction.
I’m now a postdoc with years of experience collecting samples in challenging field environments, and I’m thankful I resisted the cultural expectations placed on me. My wild, steed-like spirit wasn’t something to suppress(压制). Instead, it led me to a career that’s a perfect fit for me.

We are often so attracted by the promises of modern digital life that we fail to notice its danger. It’s that feeling of losing control that we get a dozen times a day, from when we get distracted with our phones in a discussion to when we can’t appreciate a private moment without sharing it with virtual audience.
In my first attempt to get control over my technology use, I set my phone to vibrate rather than ring. Soon after, another problem appeared. The act of continually checking the phone became a habit. I knew then that using only tips to permanently reform digital life is difficult. We should go past the notification settings on our devices or apps and consider the more essential topic of why we use so many apps in the first place. What all of us who are struggling with these challenges need is a technology usage philosophy, something that explains from the ground up which digital tools we allow into our lives, why, and under what conditions.
Cal Newport, a professor of computer science defines Digital Minimalism as a“philosophy of technology use in which you focus your online time on a small number of carefully selected activities that strongly support the things you value, and then happily miss out on everything else”.
To do so, however, we cannot passively allow the tools and apps provided by the Internet age to control how we spend our time or how we feel. Instead, we must take steps to draw the positive aspects of these technologies while sidestepping the negative aspects.
8. What does “its danger” in the first paragraph refer to
A. Feeling depressed. B. Getting distracted in a discussion.
C. Losing control of your digital life. D. Giving up private moments.
9. Why does the author mention his own experiences
A. To bring in a better solution. B. To explain a phenomenon.
C. To make a comparison. D. To clarify misunderstandings.
10. Which of the following will digital minimalists agree to
A. Ignoring the side effect of digital tools.
B. Getting away from entertainment apps.
C. Spending more time selecting information.
D. Devoting your screen time to valuable things.
11. What’s the text mainly about
A. Reforms in life. B. Technology usage philosophy.
C. Apps and social media sites. D. Technology challenges.
D
Scientists recently conducted a study that involved giving pet parrots (鹦鹉) a tablet. They could use the tablets to make video calls to other parrots. It turned out that the birds showed signs of feeling less isolated (孤独的). They also began to engage in more social behaviors, including cleaning their feathers, as well as singing and playing.
Ilyena Hirskyj-Douglas, a co-author of the study, works at the University of Glasgow, Scotland. She said that video calls had helped many people feel less isolated. “There are 20 million parrots living in people’s homes in the U. S., and we wanted to explore whether those birds might benefit from video calling, too,” Hirskyj-Douglas saíd. “If we gave them the opportunity to call other parrots, would they choose to do so, and would the experience benefit the parrots ”
In order for the parrots to use their tablets, the birds first had to learn to ring a bell. They could then touch a photo of another bird on the screen to call that bird. The birds were also given a choice of which “friend” to call. In total the birds made 147 deliberate calls to each other during the study. Scientists took detailed notes on the birds’ behavior and later reviewed the video footage (片段).
Their analysis suggested that there were, indeed, benefits for the birds. In the wild, many parrots live in large groups. As pets, they tend to be kept alone or in a small group. Isolation and boredom can cause birds to develop psychological problems. These are problems related to the mind and behavior. These problems can look like rocking, pacing back and forth, or self-harming behaviors such as feather-plucking.
Rébecca Kleinberger, who works at Northeastern University in Massachusetts, also helped with the study. She said video calling could reproduce some of the social benefits of living in a larger group.
12. Why did scientists conduct the research
A. To see if parrots can use tablets.
B. To see if video calls benefit parrots.
C. To evaluate the mental health of parrots.
D. To study the living conditions of parrots.
13 Which aspect of the research is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Its process. B. Its findings. C. Its application. D. Its influences.
14. What does video calling mean to the parrots
A. It helps with their reproduction. B. It contributes to their misbehavior.
C. It improves their physical health. D. It widens their social circle.
15. What is the text mainly about
A. Parrots living in the wild tend to be socially active.
B. Parrots living alone may develop mental problems.
C. Parrots taught to make video calls become less lonely.
D. Parrots learn to behave properly by calling each other.

Scientists recently conducted a study that involved giving pet parrots (鹦鹉) a tablet. They could use the tablets to make video calls to other parrots. It turned out that the birds showed signs of feeling less isolated (孤独的). They also began to engage in more social behaviors, including cleaning their feathers, as well as singing and playing.
Ilyena Hirskyj-Douglas, a co-author of the study, works at the University of Glasgow, Scotland. She said that video calls had helped many people feel less isolated. “There are 20 million parrots living in people’s homes in the U. S., and we wanted to explore whether those birds might benefit from video calling, too,” Hirskyj-Douglas saíd. “If we gave them the opportunity to call other parrots, would they choose to do so, and would the experience benefit the parrots ”
In order for the parrots to use their tablets, the birds first had to learn to ring a bell. They could then touch a photo of another bird on the screen to call that bird. The birds were also given a choice of which “friend” to call. In total the birds made 147 deliberate calls to each other during the study. Scientists took detailed notes on the birds’ behavior and later reviewed the video footage (片段).
Their analysis suggested that there were, indeed, benefits for the birds. In the wild, many parrots live in large groups. As pets, they tend to be kept alone or in a small group. Isolation and boredom can cause birds to develop psychological problems. These are problems related to the mind and behavior. These problems can look like rocking, pacing back and forth, or self-harming behaviors such as feather-plucking.
Rébecca Kleinberger, who works at Northeastern University in Massachusetts, also helped with the study. She said video calling could reproduce some of the social benefits of living in a larger group.
12. Why did scientists conduct the research
A. To see if parrots can use tablets.
B. To see if video calls benefit parrots.
C. To evaluate the mental health of parrots.
D. To study the living conditions of parrots.
13. Which aspect of the research is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Its process. B. Its findings. C. Its application. D. Its influences.
14. What does video calling mean to the parrots
A. It helps with their reproduction. B. It contributes to their misbehavior.
C. It improves their physical health. D. It widens their social circle.
15. What is the text mainly about
A. Parrots living in the wild tend to be socially active.
B. Parrots living alone may develop mental problems.
C. Parrots taught to make video calls become less lonely.
D. Parrots learn to behave properly by calling each other.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍一项研究表明，教宠物鹦鹉使用平板打视频电话能够有效降低其孤独感。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中Hirskyj-Douglas的话“There are 20 million parrots living in people’s homes in the U. S., and we wanted to explore whether those birds might benefit from video calling, too,(在美国，有2000万只鹦鹉生活在人们的家里，我们想探索这些鸟是否也能从视频通话中受益)”可知，科学家进行这项研究的目的是为了弄明白视频通话是否对鹦鹉有益。故选B项。
【13题详解】

The birds were also given a choice of which “friend” to call. In total the birds made 147 deliberate calls to each other during the study. Scientists took detailed notes on the birds’ behavior and later reviewed the video footage (片段).(为了让鹦鹉使用它们的平板，它们首先必须学会摇铃。然后，他们可以触摸屏幕上另一只鸟的照片来呼唤那只鸟。这些鸟还可以选择呼叫哪个“朋友”。在研究过程中，这些鸟总共发出了147次故意的叫声。科学家们详细记录了这些鸟的行为，后来又回顾了视频片段。)”可知，第三段主要描述了研究的整个过程。故选A项。

【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“Scientists recently conducted a study that involved giving pet parrots (鹦鹉) a tablet. They could use the tablets to make video calls to other parrots. It turned out that the birds showed signs of feeling less isolated (孤独的). They also began to engage in more social behaviors, including cleaning their feathers, as well as singing and playing.(科学家最近进行了一项研究，给宠物鹦鹉一个平板。它们可以用平板电脑和其他鹦鹉进行视频通话。结果表明，这些鸟表现出了感觉不那么孤立的迹象。它们也开始参与更多的社交行为，包括清洁羽毛，唱歌和玩耍。)”可知，本文主要介绍了一项通过让宠物鹦鹉使用平板打视频电话来降低其孤独感的研究，所以“Parrots taught to make video calls become less lonely.(学会视频通话的鹦鹉变得不那么孤独了。)”是文章主要内容。故选C项。

I opened the door only to find mine own sneakers just under my bed. For a while, I stood there still, shocking and guilty.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。我发现Tim穿着和我一样的球鞋，误认为是我的，就质问他。结果，发现我自己的在宿舍床底下，立刻向他道歉。
【51题详解】
考查冠词。句意：有一天，当我们在打篮球的时候，我看到蒂姆穿着一双我风格的运动鞋。球类名词前不用冠词。故删除the。
【52题详解】
考查介词。句意：有一天，当我们在打篮球的时候，我看到蒂姆穿着一双我风格的运动鞋。固定搭配a pair of，“一双……”。故在pair后加of。
【53题详解】
考查副词。句意：我以为那是我的鞋子，所以我生气地大喊，指责他未经允许使用我的私人物品。副词修饰动词。故将angry改为angrily。
【54题详解】
考查名词。句意：我以为那是我的鞋子，所以我生气地大喊，指责他未经允许使用我的私人物品。介词后接名词作宾语。故将permit改为permission。
【55题详解】
考查连词。句意：他还没来得及开口，我就回宿舍去了。根据句意可知，“还未来得及……就……”应是连词before。故将after改为before。
【56题详解】
考查代词。句意：我打开门，却发现我自己的球鞋就在床底下。形容词性物主代词接名词。故将mine改为my。
【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意：有一会儿，我一动不动地站在那里，既震惊又内疚。形容词作状语，表示主语“I”的状态，故用修饰人的形容词。故将shocking改为shocked。
【58题详解】
考查时态。句意：当我意识到我的行为一定伤害了他时，我立刻冲到球场向他真诚地道歉。本文是描述发生在过去的事情，故用一般过去时。故将rush改为rushed。
【59题详解】
考查动词。句意：当我意识到我的行为一定伤害了他时，我立刻冲到球场向他真诚地道歉。分析句子成分可知，应为动词不定式结构作目的状语。故将apology改为apologize。
【60题详解】
考查介词。句意：我松了一口气，冲突愉快地结束了。固定搭配to one’s relief，“另某人宽慰的是”。故将With改为To。
