He didnt wear a mask and he smiled at surveillance cameras before walking out of each bank. Later that night, police arrested a surprised McArthur Wheeler. W

35、hen they showed him the surveillance tapes, Wheeler stared in disbelief. “But I wore the juice，” he said. Apparently, Wheeler thought that rubbing lemon juice on his skin would make him invisible to videotape cameras. After all, lemon juice is used as invisible ink, so, as long as he didnt come near

36、 a heat source, he should have been completely invisible.The case caught the eye of the psychologist David Dunning at Cornell University, who enlisted his graduate student, Justin Kruger, to see what was going on. They reasoned that, while almost everyone holds favourable views of their abilities in

37、 various social and intellectual fields, some people mistakenly assess their abilities as being much higher than they actually are. This “illusion of confidence” is now called the “Dunning-Kruger effect”，and describes the cognitive bias to inflate self-assessment.To investigate this phenomenon in th

38、e lab, Dunning and Kruger designed some clever experiments. In one study, they asked undergraduate students a series of questions about grammar, logic and jokes, and then asked each student to estimate his or her score overall, as well as their relative rankings compared to the other students. Inter

39、estingly, students who scored the lowest in these cognitive tasks always overestimated how well they didby a lot. Students who scored in the bottom estimated that they had performed better than two-thirds of the other students!Sure, its typical for people to overestimate their abilities. The problem

40、 is that when people are incompetent, not only do they reach wrong conclusions and make unfortunate choices, but also they are robbed of the ability to realize their mistakes. In a semester-long study of college students, good students could better predict their performance on future exams if given

41、feedback about their scores and rankings. However, the poorest performers showed no recognition, despite clear and repeated feedback that they were doing badly. Instead of being confused or thoughtful about their incorrect ways, incompetent people insist that their ways are correct. As Charles Darwi

42、n wrote in The Descent of Man(1871): “Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.”Interestingly, really smart people also fail to accurately self-assess their abilities. As much as D- and F-grade students overestimate their abilities, A-grade students underestimate theirs. The d

43、ifference is that competent people can and do adjust their self-assessment if given appropriate feedback, while incompetent individuals cannot.1、Which of the following statements about the Dunning-Kruger effect is TRUE?AThe effect is true for everyone in daily life.BIt suggests that most people lack

44、 cognitive abilities.CSome people are overconfident about their abilities.DThe conclusion is drawn based on a series of bank robberies.2、What do the college students behaviors mentioned in the experiments prove?AFeedback plays a significant role in estimating ones ability.BIncompetent people have a

45、rather fixed attitude towards their choice.CGood students always predict their future performance accurately.DPeople cant rely on their previous behavior to make adjustments.3、The underlined word “begets” in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by “_”.Agives rise toBtakes advantage ofCmakes up forDbreaks awa

46、y from4、What can we infer from the passage?AReal knowledge is knowing the extent of ones ignorance.BIt is impossible for people to evaluate their real competence.CIllusion of confidence is the major source of peoples failure.DThose with great abilities often have a low opinion of themselves.25（10分）

47、Have you ever spent an afternoon in the backyard, maybe grilling or enjoying a basketball game, when suddenly you notice that everything goes quiet? There is an old phrase “calm before the storm”， often used in a situationa quiet period just before a great activity or excitement. According to our ow

48、n experience, we know there is actually calm before the storm. But what causes this calm? And is it always calm before the storm? Lets hear what scientists have to say.A period of calm happens in a particular kind of storm, the simplest kind of storma singlecell thunderstorm. In this type of thunder

49、storm, there is usually only one main updraft, which is warm, damp air and drawn from places near the ground. Storms need warm and damp air as fuel, so they typically draw that air in from surrounding environment. Storms can draw in the air that fit their need from all directionseven from the direct

50、ion in which the storm is traveling.As the warm, damp air is pulled into a storm system, it leaves a lowpressure vacuum(真空) coming after. The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds, thus the temperature of the warm, damp air drops, and the water vapour(水蒸汽) in

51、 it changes into tiny drops that are a precondition of rain. These drops accumulate and build on larger particles like dust, until they grow large enough to form raindrops.This warm, damp air keeps moving upwards, but it becomes cooler and drier during its trip through cloud. When it reaches the top

52、 of the cloud, the air gets spit out(被挤出) at the top. This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds. From there, the air goes down. Warm and dry air is relatively stable, and once it covers a region, that air, in turn, causes the calm before a storm.Most thunderstorms, though, dont start w

53、ith calm. Thats because most are actually groups of storms with complex wind patterns. Theres so much air moving up and down storm groups that the calm before the storm never happens. Instead, before the storm, it might be really windy!1、Which best fits the description of a particular kind of storm?

54、AA storm with air drawn from every direction.BA thunderstorm without strong winds.CA thunderstorm with a single shape.DA storm fueled by moving air from the ground.2、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?ACold and dry air.BWarm and damp air.CCold and damp air.DWarm and dry air.3

55、、Which does the writer most likely agree to?APresence of the calm relies on stable air.BStorm happens without air moving up and down.CThe drier the air is, the bigger the storm will be.DNot all thunderstorms start with the calm.4、What is the passage mainly about?ACauses and effects of a heavy storm.

56、BAn explanation of the calm before a storm.CA personal experience of a heavy storm.DA brief description of a peaceful storm.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项26（30分）One day, an expert was speaking to a group of business students.

He asked the group once more, “Is the jar full? “Probably not,” one of them 10 , “Good!” he replied.

59、He reached under the table again and 11 a bag of sand. He started putting the sand into the jar and it went into all the spaces 12 between the rocks and the gravel.
