Aral (A managerial economi

24、st at the Massachusetts institute of technology) says, from housing _31_ to gold prices and from political polls to restaurant reviews, the _32_ that other people like something has a powerful ability to make people like it themselves.The new study _33_ how simple it would be for companies to contro

25、l reviews of their products by simply adding a few positive _34_ of their own early reviews in the process, Aral adds. It found that effects were strongest when stories were about politics, business and cultures than for fun or lifestyle pieces. In situations where there are more _35_ news reviews,

26、you have to be a little more cautious about interpreting likes and dislikes. “Think twice before you trust, how many likes something has,” he adds. “Thats something you have to _36_ with a grain of salt (持怀疑态度).” And its a situation many online users _37_ on a daily basis.Aral recently went onY to r

27、eview a restaurant with a plan to give it three out of five stars, but when he got to the _38_, he was shown how other people describe the same place and those reviews include someone with five stars. Seeing those positive reviews made him think twice about his own _39_ average opinion. “A woman _40

28、_ how great it is, how great her great prices are and how the lemon sauce is so great,” he says. “Maybe its not such a good idea to say some rating right before you make your own.”III. Reading Comprehension Section A （15分）Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or ph

29、rases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Whether its from an awful breakup or a painful life event, some memories 5can return repeatedly to our mind for the entire lives. But, what if science can _41_ your bad memories so that you can start al

30、l over again? As is known to all, memory is an incredibly complex _42_. While scientists used to believe it was like a filing cabinet and particular memories were stored in different sections of the brain, we now know this is _43_.In fact, each memory is a brain wide process. If you end up rememberi

31、ng something, its because the cells in your brain are being fired, _44_ new connections and links and literally rebuild the circuitry of your mind. And this change is partially _45_ by proteins in the brain. So what if the proteins arent available?Simply put, memories cant be made. Seriously, scient

32、ists have tested this by giving animals drugs that prevent these proteins from forming. _46_, the animals have no recollection of the things that took place shortly after the drug was taken. From this research, scientists actually found a way to target long-term memories for _47_. You see, every sin

33、gle time you remember a memory, your brain is once again firing and rewiring.In fact, each time you reflect on a memory, you are physically changing that memory in your mind. And each time the memory is changed a little, it reflects your _48_ thoughts. Remembering, to a great extent, is an act of _4

34、9_ and imagination, which means that the more you reflect on old memories, the less accurate they will become. And scientists have actually quantified this change.After 9/11, hundreds of people were asked about their memories of the dreadful day. A year later, 37% of the details had changed. By 2004

35、, nearly 50% of the details had changed or gone _50_. And because memories are formed and rebuilt every time, if you administer (服药) the protein-preventing drug while recalling a memory, the memory can be _51_ removed.To test this, scientists took lab rats and played sound for them, shortly followed

36、 by an electric shock. _52_ doing this for many times, the rats quickly learned that if they heard the sound, a shock was soon to follow. Therefore, they would stress up and freeze every time they heard it. Months later, these rats would still _53_ the noise. However, if they administered the drug f

37、irst, the rats would lose the memory of the sound, and simply continue on. They had lost their memory of that specific noise.To be sure that the drug wasnt just causing large-scale brain damage, scientists repeated these experiments with various tones this time. Both sounds would warn for a shock an

38、d _54_ the rats would fear both. But if they administered the drug and played only one of the sounds, the mice would only forget that one tone, while still remaining _55_ of the other. Over time scientists have discovered specific drugs to target particular proteins across different parts of the bra

A. suspicious B. careful C. painful D. fearfulSection B （22分）Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several que

42、stions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Who would win in a fight, a lion or a tiger? Well, if size has anything to do with the matter, the tige

43、r would win. Thats because tigers are the largest of all cat species. Tigers are not only large, they are also fast. They can sprint as fast as 40 miles per hour for short distances and leap as far as 30 feet horizontally. You might not think that such large, fast, and fierce creatures need help to

44、survive, but they do. It is estimated that at the start of the 20th century, there were over 100,000 tigers living in the wild. By the turn of the century, the number of tigers outside of captivity dwindled to just over 3,000. Interestingly, the most serious threats that tigers face come from a much

45、 smaller species, one with an average weight of around 140 lbs. That species is Homo sapiens, better known as humans. Humans threaten tigers in primarily two ways: hunting and destroying habitat. 7Tigers are hunted for many reasons. People have long valued the famous striped skins. Though trading ti

46、ger skins is now illegal in most parts of the world, tiger pelts are worth around $10,000 on the black market. Though the fur would be incentive enough for most poachers, other parts of the tiger can also fetch a pretty penny. Some people in China and other Asian cultures believe that various tiger

47、parts have healing properties. Traditional Chinese medicine calls for the use of tiger bones, amongst other parts, in some prescriptions. Tigers have also been hunted as game. In other words, people hunted tigers solely for the thrill and achievement of killing them. Such killings took place in larg

48、e scale during the 19th and early 20th centuries, when an English hunter might claim to kill over a hundred tigers in their hunting career. Though this practice is much less popular today than it was in the past, it has not ceased entirely. Humans have done considerable damage to the worlds tiger po

49、pulation through hunting, but perhaps more damage has been caused through the destruction of habitat. Tigers once ranged widely across Asia, all the way from Turkey to the eastern coast of Russia. But over the past 100 years, tigers have lost 93% of their historic range. Instead of spanning all the way across Asia, the tiger population is now
