17、ts on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET. 20 What did you study at university? If it was something along the lines of law or business, you might want to look away now. Thats because according to new research, which has found a link between our university subjects and our personalities, you have selfi

18、sh, uncooperative tendencies and are not very in touch with your feelings. On the plus side, youre probably the life and soul of a party, the findings suggest. Researchers analyzed data from more than 13,000 university students who were involved in 12 separate studies. From this, they discovered a c

19、orrelation between the “Big Five“ major personality traits and the subjects they were enrolled on. For example, those studying law, economics, political science and medicine tended to be much more outgoing than those taking other subjects, the study found. But when it came to “agreeableness“the tend

20、ency towards being helpful, generous and consideratethe lawyers scored particularly low, as did business and economics students. Arts and humanities students, as well as those studying psychology and politics scored highly for openness, meaning they were curious, imaginative and in touch with their

21、inner feelings, while economists, engineers, lawyers and scientists scored comparatively low. However, the arts and humanities students also tended to be less conscientious and more nervous, typically exhibiting signs of anxiety and moodiness. Psychology students were not far behind arts and humanit

22、ies students for these traits. Study author Anna Vedel, from the University of Aarhus in Denmark, said she was surprised by the results. “ The effect sizes show that the differences found are not trivial, far from,“ she said. “On the more humorous side they do confirm our more or less prejudicial st

23、ereotypes of the disturbed psychologist, the withdrawn natural scientist, the cynical economist. “ And she said that the findings could help those school pupils who currently have no idea what to study at university, as well as helping academics to plan their lectures. “Im not arguing that these res

24、ults should play a major role in either guidance or selection, but it might provide some inspiration for students that are in doubt about study choices and want to make a choice based on more than abilities, for example,“ said Dr Vedel. “Or teachers might better understand their student population.

25、“ 21 The first paragraph implies that law or business students may_. （ A） be amused by the research （ B） be interested in the research （ C） dislike the research （ D） enjoy the research 22 According to the research, law students scored particularly low in the trait of_. （ A） generosity （ B） openness

26、（ C） anxiety （ D） selfishness 23 The word “conscientious“ (Para.4) probably means “_“. （ A） moody （ B） sensitive （ C） curious （ D） careful 24 Anna Vedel stated that the research_. （ A） confirmed the link between personality and profession （ B） showed that the differences were far from significant （

27、C） was not reliable because of its prejudicial observation （ D） did not have enough samples to support its findings 25 According to Anna Vedel, the research may help_. （ A） students make wise choices in finding jobs （ B） teachers understand their students better （ C） students make presentations more

28、 academically （ D） school pupils go to better universities 25 AlphaGos victory over Go(围棋 ) champion Lee Se-dol reportedly shocked artificial intelligence experts, who thought such an event was 10 to 15 years away. But if the timing was a surprise, the outcome was not. On the contrary, it was inevit

29、able and entirely foreseeable. Playing complex games is precisely what computers do supremely well. Just as they beat the world champions at checkers(跳棋 ) and then chess, they were destined to beat the champion at Go. Yet I dont believe, as some do, that human defeats like this one presage an era of

30、 mass unemployment in which awesomely able computers leave most of us with nothing to do. Advancing technology will profoundly change the nature of high-value human skills and that is threatening, but we arent doomed. The skills of deep human interaction, the abilities to manage the exchanges that o

31、ccur only between people, will only become more valuable. Three of these skills stand out: The first, the foundation of the rest, is empathy, which is more than just feeling someone elses pain. Its the ability to perceive what another person is thinking or feeling, and to respond in an appropriate w

32、ay. The second is creative problem-solving in groups. Research on group effectiveness shows that the key isnt team cohesion or motivation or even the smartest members IQ; rather, its the social sensitivity of the members, their ability to read one another and keep anyone from dominating. The third c

33、ritical ability, somewhat surprisingly, is storytelling, which has not traditionally been valued by organizations. Charts, graphs and data analysis will continue to be important, but thats exactly what technology does so well. To change peoples minds or inspire them to act, tell them a story. These

34、skills, though basic to our humanity, are fundamentally different from the skills that have been the basis of economic progress for most of human history, such as logic, knowledge and analysis, which we learned from textbooks and in classrooms. By contrast, the skills of deep human interaction addre

35、ss the often irrational reality of how human beings behave, and we find them not in textbooks but inside ourselves. As computers master ever more complexity, thats where well find the source of our continued value. 26 According to the author, AlphaGos victory_. （ A） could have happened earlier （ B）

36、came as a pleasant surprise （ C） was an expected result （ D） was more a matter of luck 27 The word “presage“ (Para. 2) is closest in meaning to “_“. （ A） survive （ B） suffer （ C） invent （ D） predict 28 What is the authors attitude towards the human future in face of technology? （ A） Unclear. （ B） Co

37、nfused. （ C） Worried. （ D） Optimistic. 29 Which of the following is the most fundamental to human interaction? （ A） Social sensitivity of group members to understand each other. （ B） Strong ability to share peoples feelings and respond. （ C） Team spirit to make sure that everyone is involved. （ D） I

38、nspirational storytelling to motivate people to act. 30 According to the author, the skills of deep human interaction_ （ A） are the source of true human values in the future （ B） can work with knowledge to make the world better （ C） are similar to the skills of human logic and analysis （ D） can be l

39、earned from textbooks and in classrooms 30 Last year, I went WWOOFing (Willing Workers on Organic Farms) at a beautiful organic farm in La Reunion. With WWOOFing, volunteers exchange their time and work for food and accommodation. I slept in a cabin in the woods with hedgehogs (刺猬 )digging about in

40、the bushes, all different coloured birds singing in the morning and endless rows of palm trees offering shade from the sun. For me, one of the best ways to get to know a new place is to work with the land, live with the locals and share meals together. This is why I absolutely love WWOOFing. It has

41、got to be one of the best ways to travel. It is a mutually beneficial exchange where everyone involved prioritises people and environment above profit. You get the time and space to deepen a connection with local communities and nature. There is a lot to learn and each farm has its own unique way of

42、 doing things, depending on the environment, climate and soil. At the farm in La Reunion we planted palm trees to harvest the core of the trunk which can be eaten in salads. Before staying with the farm I had only eaten heart of palm from cans which were nothing in comparison to the real thing, fres

43、h from the ground. When potting up the very beginnings of the palm trees, I felt grateful to be a part of the start of the trees cycle. I was filled with awe that something so small could grow into something so big and strong. We also did lots of weeding, which helped me to get to know all kinds of

44、different plants, to be able to identify which ones we could use as herbs/medicine/in salads and which were seen as uneatable. I also got to harvest pineapples and guava fruit (番石榴 ) to make jams which will be sold at the local market. Of course, not everyone is able to travel far away into the fiel

45、d. The great thing about the skill-share philosophy behind WWOOFing is that its something we can all do from our own back yard. The focus shifts from money to how we can best support each other in our communities. A fair exchange can make a big difference in the world. 31 WWOOFing enables volunteers

46、 to_. （ A） get food and shelter for their work （ B） travel around La Reunion for free （ C） tell the differences between various birds （ D） have close contact with wild animals 32 The author found his farm life in La Reunion quite_. （ A） awful （ B） rewarding （ C） comfortable （ D） difficult 33 The aut

47、hor did all of the following on the organic farm EXCEPT_. （ A） removing weeds （ B） planting palm trees （ C） harvesting fruits （ D） collecting vegetables 34 The philosophy of WWOOFing is to_. （ A） improve local environment （ B） make locals live better （ C） unite different communities （ D） advocate a

48、fair exchange 35 This passage is mainly about_. （ A） the development of WWOOFing （ B） a local WWOOFing community （ C） a charming WWOOFing experience （ D） the system of WWOOFing 35 Experts say distracted walking is a growing problem, as people of all ages become more de pendent on electronic devices

49、for personal and professional matters. They also note pedestrian deaths have been rising in recent years. In 2005, 11% of all US deaths involved pedestrians, but that number rose to 15% in 2014. The rise in deaths coincides with states introducing bills that target pedestrians. Some states, such as Hawaii, Arkansas, Illinois, Nevada and New York, continue to introduce legislation every year.
