20、rresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One 30 Walter Isaacsons new biography(传记 )of Steve Jobs is a very successful book of the year, but Isaacson is confused that so many journalists writing about the book have hold the anecdotes(轶事 )about Jobs behavin

21、g like a monster to the people around him, without setting those anecdotes against the larger picture of everything that Jobs accomplished in his life. “You have to judge people by the outcome,“ says Isaacson, the former editor of Time magazine who has written bestselling biographies of Benjamin Fra

22、nklin and Albert Einstein. “In the end, Steve Jobs had four loving children who were all intensely loyal to him and a wife who was his best friend for 20 years. At work he ends up with a loyal professional team of A players at Apple who swear by him and stay there, as opposed to other companies that

23、 are always losing good talent. In the end he was an inspiring person. He inspired loyalty and real love. So you judge him by that.“ Jobs died on October 5 at the age of 56 after battling cancer for many years. Isaacson, who spent two years working on the book, has fond memories of dinners with the

24、Jobs family in their home in Palo Alto, Calif., sitting around a big wooden table in the kitchen beside a brick pizza oven. The house where Jobs lived with his wife, Laurene, and their children has no hedges or high walls, no long driveway. Out back is a vegetable and flower garden with beehives fro

25、m which the family collects their own honey. “It was a house that you would not turn your head to look at as you go down the street. It was built in the 1930s and had no lavish spaces, no McMansion qualities. It was just a normal Palo Alto neighborhood home,“ Isaacson says. 31 Which issue confuses I

29、in their garden. （ D） Collecting honey from the beehives in their garden. 35 What did Isaacson think about Jobs house? （ A） It was like a flower garden. （ B） It was built in the 1940s. （ C） It was just a normal home without lavish spaces. （ D） It was like a brick pizza oven. Passage Two 35 The peopl

30、e who multitask(同时执行多项任务 )the most are the ones who are worst at it. Thats the surprising conclusion of researchers at Stanford University, who found multitaskers are more easily distracted and less able to ignore irrelevant information than people who do less multitasking. In a telephone interview,

31、 Clifford Nass, a professor at Stanfords communications department, said that the huge finding is that the more media people use the worse they are at using any media. The researchers studied 262 college undergraduates, dividing them into high and low multitasking groups and comparing such things as

32、 memory, ability to switch from one task to another and being able to focus on a task. Their findings were reported in Tuesdays edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. In the study, the researchers first had to figure out who are the heavy and light multitaskers. They gave the st

33、udents a form listing a variety of media such as print, television, computer-based video, music, computer games, telephone voice or text, and so forth. When it came to such essential abilities, people who did a lot of multitasking didnt score as well as others, Nass said. Still to be answered is why

34、 the folks who are worst at multitasking are the ones doing it the most. Its sort of a chicken-or-egg question. Nass wanted to find out multitasking is causing them to be lousy(差劲的 )at multitasking, or their lousiness at multitasking is causing them to be multitaskers. He also wanted to know it is b

35、orn or learned. In a society that seems to encourage more and more multitasking, the findings have social implications(影响 ), Nass observed. Multitasking is already blamed for car crashes as several states restrict the use of cell phones while driving. Lawyers or advertisers can try to use irrelevant

36、 information to distract and re focus people to influence their decisions. 36 According to the first paragraph, the multitaskers are likely to_. （ A） be worse at doing any task （ B） ignore irrelevant information in doing a task （ C） be distracted and pay attention to irrelevant information （ D） do l

37、ess tasks at a time 37 According to Clifford Nass, the research showed that_. （ A） people should use more and more media （ B） people would use worse media in the future （ C） people would be worse at using more media （ D） people would be shocked at using media 38 What should the scientists do first i

38、n the research of the undergraduates? （ A） Find out who are the heavy and light multitaskers. （ B） Divide the students into different groups. （ C） Compare different abilities of the undergraduates. （ D） Give the students a form to fill out. 39 What did Clifford Nass want to find out in the research?

39、 （ A） The relationship between multitasking and multitaskers. （ B） Who are worst at multitasking. （ C） The answer to a chicken-or-egg question. （ D） Social implications of multitasking. 40 Why is the use of cell phones while driving restricted in some states? （ A） It can encourage more and more mult

40、itasking. （ B） It can cause car crashes. （ C） It can have social implications. （ D） It can distract and refocus people. Passage Three 40 The vast ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica are melting faster than previously thought, and that melting is accelerating, according to a new report that verifi

41、es 18 years of melting via two independent techniques. Left unchecked, the extra water dumped into the oceans could push average global sea level six inches higher by 2050, the report finds. That would mark the ice sheets as the largest contributors to sea level rise, outstripping(超过 )melting from E

42、arths two other huge, frozen reservoirs, mountain glaciers and polar ice caps. The new estimate of ice sheet meltingand the subsequent rise in sea leveloutstrips more modest figures offered by the International Panel on Climate Change in 2007, the last time that international body published a compre

43、hensive assessment of the ice sheets. “Its going to be a concern for people in coastal areas,“ said Isabella Velicogna of the California Institute of Technology and NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a co-author of the report online at Geophysical Research Letters. While six inches of additional sea h

44、eight may sound small, the increase will distribute unevenly across the globe, Velicogna said, and disproportionately(不匀称地 )impact low-lying countries like Bangladesh. The study used two techniques to measure the melting of the ice sheets. The most thorough data set, from 1992 through the present, e

45、mployed satellite radar readings of ice movement, soundings of ice thickness, and other grown-based observations to build a complete picture of the size of the ice sheets from month to month. The second technique drew on unique twin satellites, together called Grace, which measure minute differences

46、 in gravity over the entire Earth. The Grace satellites, an acronym for Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment, were launched by NASA and the German Aerospace Center in 2002. 41 What would be the result of dumping extra water into oceans? （ A） The extra water would make the ice sheets thinner and t

47、hinner. （ B） The extra water would proportionately impact low-lying countries. （ C） The extra water could push average sea level six inches higher by 2050. （ D） The extra water would make the ice sheets in Antarctica melt more quickly. 42 Which can prove the modesty of figures offered by the Interna

48、tional Panel on Climate Change? （ A） The new study of the California Institute of Technology. （ B） The new estimate o! ice sheet melting and the subsequent rise in sea level. （ C） The previous estimate of ice sheet melting of Greenland. （ D） The new estimate of NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory. 43 Ac

49、cording to Velicogna, what will happen if the sea level rise six inches? （ A） It will distribute unevenly across the globe and impact low-lying countries. （ B） It will influence people in mountain areas and accelerate global warming. （ C） It will improve the worlds climate and slow down the pace of global warming. （ D） It is harder to measure the melting rate of the ice sheets in the polar regions. 44 What can we learn about the most thorough data set from 1992 through the present?
