But how can we tell if someone is trustworthy? In a paper published recently in

12、 the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, researcher gave us the answer.The researchers asked 401 adults from the United States to fill out a questionnaire measuring their guilt-proneness(内疚倾向) in different situations as well as several other qualities, and then play a short online game. In

13、 this game, Player 1 is given $1, which they can choose to give to Player2. Any money given to Player 2 is then automatically increased to $2.50. Player 2 can then decide whether to keep all of the money or behave in a trustworthy way by returning a portion of the money to Player 1. The researchers

14、found more guilt-prone people were more likely to share the money with Player1. Actually, in follow-up studies, guilt-proneness predicted trustworthiness better than other personality qualities the researchers measured.Why might guilt lead to trustworthy behavior? The researchers found people who we

15、re guilt-prone also reported feeling an obligation to act in ethical(合乎道德的) and responsible ways while interacting(互动) with their partners in the game. People who are guilt-prone tend to avoid engaging in behavior that might harm or disappoint others. If they do something bad, guilt encourages them

16、to try to make things right again.Then， how can we use this research to ascertain whether someone is trustworthy? “One way to do this might be observe how they respond to experience regret,” lead author Emma Levine, assistant professor at the University of Chicago Levine, explains. Another way is to

17、 ask them to describe a difficult dilemma they faced in the past, suggests co-author Taya Cohen, associate professor at Carnegie Mellon University. This is particularly effective, Cohen and her colleagues have found, because it allows us to see if theyre concerned about the effects their actions hav

18、e on others.1、What may make others feel that we are reliable according to the text?AOur good qualities to help them out.BOur tendency to experience guilt.COur kind attitude towards them.DOur team spirit in the game.2、What may connect guilt with trustworthy behavior?AA sense of responsibility.BA feel

19、ing of disappointment.CThe way one interacts with others.DThe ability to tell right from wrong.3、What does the underlined word “ascertain” in the last paragraph mean?AAskBExpressCDescribeDDetermine4、How is the text organized and developed?ABy providing background.BBy making a lot of comparisons.CBy

Whether you wanted to play games, read the news, or do a thousand other things, there was something for whatever you desired.Then somethin

21、g funny happened. Logging into the App Store today is like going into a shopping mall with only a coupon(优惠券) for one thing: Theres so much choice; it might be easier to give up than to choose.It isnt consumers who are burdened, though. Too much content of all kinds also has economic effects. When c

22、ountless choices are available, it causes pressure, pushing prices down and driving us a bit crazy.So what is the way forward? It may well be to turn less choice itself to the marketing strategy. There are already signs that this is happening. Firstly content companies are looking to prevent their o

23、fferings from getting lost in the tons of stuff. Most obvious is Disney, which is planning to open its own streaming service next year. The point is to narrow the focus so that those seeking Disney cartoons will have one place to go, rather than being around various services.Yet if that represents a

24、 careful first step, there are more extreme options too. Consider the idea of a wine club: from tens of thousands of bottles each year, subscribers pay someone to select the most interesting ones. Perhaps what comes next for digital content is similar-carefully selected offerings from trusted source

25、s that put choices in the hands of someone else in order to get rid of the anxiety of choosing.Up to now, too much choice in digital media has only one solution: the algorithm（运算法则） But we ve seen the trouble with algorithms on You Tube They feed you only what youve already said you like, not things

26、 you may not know you re into. Worse, they have a tendency to serve up disturbing content he way forward cant simply be more or better algorithms.Instead, its time for digital companies to start thinking about how to put limits on things: on how much we can use a device, or what we are available to

27、choose from.As we move further into the digital revolution, what people ask for is clear: Less.1、What will too much choice of content on the market result in?AThe shutdown of companies BThe anxiety of consumersCThe poor quality of products DThe slowdown of economy2、Which of the following statements

28、is TRUE according to Paragraphs 4 and 5?AContent companies should withdraw their offerings onlineBContent companies should post their offerings on App StoreCContent companies adopt different methods to narrow the consumers focusDContent companies open their own streaming services on You Tube3、How do

29、 algorithms probably respond to consumers needs?AThey make a better choice for them BThey help to remove disturbing contentCThey change their interest in digital media DThey fail to offer what they possibly like4、What is the authors attitude towards limiting the choice consumers haveAApproving.

30、pticalCOpposing. DNeutral23（8分）Cities are likely to be affected by overheating, thanks to something called the urban heat island effect. Cities tend to be short of trees, which provide shade, and they are covered with black pavement, which absorbs heat from the sun. Think of how it feels to wear a d

31、ark shirt versus a white shirt on a sunny day. A black shirt absorbs light, heating you up. But a white shirt reflects light, keeping you cool.The average temperature in a city of a million or more people can be more than 5 degrees F hotter than surrounding areas. That extra 5 degrees can turn a hot

32、 day from uncomfortable to deadly. As temperatures rise, cities will be an especially dangerous place to be during a heat wave. To protect public health, city officials are going to make the city cooler.As part of that effort, Los Angeles is coating its roads in CoolSeal, a gray paint that keeps str

33、eets and parking lots 10 degrees cooler than black asphalt（沥青）. It will help Angelinos save money during the summer, when air conditioning sends power bills soaring（猛增）. And it will save lives by lowering temperatures and improving air quality. Hot weather worsens air pollution by turning car exhaus

34、t into smog, which can make life miserable for people with asthma（哮喘）and other breathing problems.Of course, LA will have to do more than paint over a few streets to cool off the city. Angelinos will also need to plant more trees and apply white paint to rooftopsat least those not already covered in

35、 solar panels. While LA is a pioneer of reflective streets, other cities, like New York, are already experimenting with reflective roofs or, like Melbourne, lowering the temperature by planting trees. LA is hardly alone in its effort to stay cool.“This is an urgent challenge, and its much bigger tha

47、 as to understand the main idea of the article and the important points in the article. Skimming and scanning is a good strategy when you are pressed for time, such as when you are taking an exam, but today, many people skim and scan everything and they have lost the ability to enjoy reading.In resp

48、onse to this, something called the slow reading movement has become popular.

In many cities there are even slow reading clubs wh

49、ere members go to a cafe, not discuss books, but to sit quietly with each other, drink coffee and just read.Researchers have found that reading slowly, especially books of fiction, helps people concentrate, relax and think about what they are reading. It also helps people empathize.This last point i

50、s important. When you read a novel slowly, you get to understand the characters emotions and to see the world through their eyes.Reading, of course, isnt easy. You have to sit still, for one thing. And it can seem boring when compared to the excitement of playing video games. But, for me, reading ha

51、s been an enduring pleasure in my life. From the age of ten, when I got my first library card, Ive enjoyed the company of pirates and heroes, of evil criminals and clever detectives, of thousands of interesting people I would have never met in real life.
