Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Twenty-five young musicians from around the world have come to California to train and perform this month. They will take part in an international program called iPalpiti. The name comes from the Italian word for heartbeats.
Eduard Schmieder is the program's conductor and musical director. Schmieder and his wife started the program in 1997 with help from violinist and conductor Yehudi Menuhin.
This year, the musicians come from 19 countries. Schmieder notes some of the musicians are from countries that are at war with each other. And they are sitting next to each other, and they become friends. He says through their music and friendship, they are making the world more peaceful.
The musicians taking part in the program range in age from their late teens to their 30s. Schmieder said they include winners of major music competitions. Peter Rainer is a violin player from Germany. He serves as concertmaster, the link between the musicians and conductor. “It's so great that you have so many sensitive musicians. They all are very alert and awake and listen to each other and it's a lot of fun.” Turkish viola player Can Sakul says the international group works well together. “The experience is a cultural as well as a musical exchange,” said Russian violinist Semyon Promoe. “Everyone has their own opinion of music, and about how to play every composition. It's very interesting to interact with everybody, to play together and to create one opinion for everybody.” This year, the festival focuses on music from the 1600s to the 1900s. But cello player Francisco Vila of Ecuador said the music has no geographic boundaries.
Vila added that the musicians get to know more about each other as they perform great music. “It's interesting to see where we intersect, how many things we have in common. And also the music world is quite small, so you're only one person away from knowing everyone else.” Can Sakul said the musicians who have taken part in the training and festival make up a big family. He added that he is proud to be a part of it.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了音乐人Schmieder创建了一个由来自不同国家、不同年龄的音乐家们组成的团队,他们在一起合作交流,他们希望通过他们的音乐和友谊使世界更和谐。

(2024·福建厦门校考)For the first time, scientists have measured what actually happens with face-to-face interactions when employees start to work at an open-plan office, and their results show these modern workspaces are not as cooperative as you'd think.
Two researchers from Harvard Business School and Harvard University wanted to test whether removing walls at a real-world workplace really increases interactions between co-workers. “To our knowledge, no prior study has directly measured the effect on actual interaction that results from removing walls to create an open office environment,” Ethan S. Bernstein and Stephen Turban write in the paper. To that end, they approached two multinational companies that were reorganizing their office spaces at the global headquarters, and enlisted small groups of employees for two studies.
For eight weeks before the office redesign and eight weeks afterward, the researchers tracked employees' social interactions and locations. This data was analyzed together with email and instant messaging information from the company's servers to measure differences in how people were communicating with each other.
What they found was a pretty astonishing difference in face-to-face interactions — but not in the direction you might think. Across both experiments, employees' social interactions in person decreased by a crazy 70 percent, while emails saw an uptick by roughly 20 to 50 percent.
So, instead of spending more time cooperating with co-workers in the new space where everyone could see them, people got their heads down and tried to preserve their privacy any way they could. According to these results, it appears that being forced into a more open-plan environment can make people switch from chatting to others in person to sending an email or using instant messaging instead.
As the team notes, it's not automatically a bad thing, but it can certainly change work dynamics in an unexpected way. “That can have important consequences for how — and how productively — work gets done,” the researchers conclude.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。一项研究表明:在开放式办公室工作时,员工并不像人们想象的那样合作。相反,为了保护隐私,他们会减少互动,更多地使用电子邮件或即时消息进行交流。
5.How did the two multinational companies redesign their offices?
A.By expanding the total floor areas.
B.By updating the computer servers.
C.By changing the employees' locations.
D.By tearing down the space boundaries.
解析:选D 推理判断题。由第二段可知,为了研究开放性办公空间对互动的影响,研究人员联系了这两家跨国公司,因为这两家跨国公司正准备重新设计办公室。由此推知,他们会把办公室设计成开放性的,即打破空间边界。故选D项。
6.Why did the employees prefer email or instant messaging in an open office space?
A.To reduce the risk of privacy leaks.
B.To establish efficient communication.
C.To facilitate indirect social interaction.
D.To transform traditional work patterns.
解析:选A 细节理解题。由倒数第二段可知,员工更喜欢在开放式办公场所发电子邮件或即时消息,是因为他们想减少隐私泄露的风险。故选A项。
7.What can be inferred from the researchers' saying in the last paragraph?
A.Further relevant research needs conducting.
B.Their research findings are of practical value.
C.Their team intends to change working environment.
D.People hold different opinions on how work gets done.
解析:选B 推理判断题。由最后一段最后一句可知,研究人员认为他们的研究结果具有实用价值。故选B项。
8.What is the main idea of the text?
A.Real-world workplaces increase employees' interaction.
B.Work dynamics don't have much effect on work efficiency.
C.Modern workspaces change workers' way of communication.
D.Open-plan offices can't promote cooperation among co-workers.
解析:选D 主旨大意题。由第一段和全文可知,文章讲述了一项研究,研究结果表明:在开放式办公室工作时,员工并不像人们想象的那样合作。相反,为了保护隐私,他们会减少互动,更多地使用电子邮件或即时消息进行交流,故D项“开放式办公室不能促进同事之间的合作”可概括本文主旨。
