It is quite right to feel frustrated by that idea.Math can seem like a world of rules you just have to follow. which makes it seem rigid and boring.Whereas my love of math is somewhat driven by my love of breaking rules,or at least pushing against them.Both of those impulses (play an important role in advancing human understanding of math. So rather than think about why one plus one is two,let's go further and question whether it's true all the time. Sometimes,one plus one can equal more than two.Say you put one rabbit and another rabbit together. You might well end up with a lot of rabbits.Or sometimes,one plus one is just one,like if you put a pile of sand on top of another pile of sand,then you just get one pile of sand. Now,you might think that these aren't really mathematical situations,because they don't involve real addition.You're welcome to think that,but that's not what math does. Math instead says:Let's work out the context in which one plus one really does equal two.and contexts in which it doesn't.By exploring different ways to think about something,we gain a deeper understanding of that thing and have more ways to check that what we're doing is secure. Imagine we were designing a jungle gym for children.We'd want to test it in every possible way to make sure it's safe.The solidity of math comes from not wanting to trust things.but wanting to jump and swing and know that our framework will hold up. I hope that we will start sceing mathematics as a place to pose questions and explore answers.rather than a place where the answers are fixed and we're supposed to know them.And I hope we will piace more emphasis on those who follow their curiosity on a jourey that may be slow and without a clear destination,a quiet walk through the countryside rather than a race to the finish. 英语·第4项（共10页】 4.Mog does the author view the act of questioning mathemutical rules?

You might politely decline and walk away thinking,"Something smells fishy." In a study published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin,researchers found that people tend to trn down offers of "free money,as well as unusually cheap services,because they seem "too good to be true.” In the initial experiment,nearly 40 percent of purticipants ate a cookie offered freely -compared with about 20 percent of those offered $2 as well."People typically imagine things like someone did something disgusting to the cookie,"says study lead author Andrew J.Vonasch,a psychological scientist at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand. Nine further experiments used online questionnaires to present other cases.These included being offered money to accept a ride home and surprisingly cheap flights.In each case,past a certain threshold () higher potential monetary gain reduced participants'likelihood of accepting the offer. Vonasch says the study illustrates that contrary to the "standard economie model,"which supposes humans always seek to maximize gains,transactions (need to also be understood as social interactions between people trying to understand each other's minds. If someone seems to violate accepted norms,such as self-interest,without any explanation,we assume they have bidden motives and infer there will be "phantom costs":imagined consequences that reduce what Vouasch calls an offer's "psychological value." 英语·第5页（共10页） Factors beyond the present moment may come into play."Understanding that others'perceived overgencrosity may put us in their debt could also help explain people's reluctance,says Vonasch. The researchers also showed how to mitigate (the effect:simply provide a reason for the deal.The "cheap lights"experiment included a condition where the seats were revealed to be very uncomfortable. "Uncomfortable seats aren't typically a selling point,"Vonasch says."But telling people the seats were uncomfortable made them more willing to take them because it was sufficient explanation." 28.Why might people reject an offer of $2 along with a free cookie? A.They dislike a money-related offer. B.They distrust the true value of the offer. C.They think the offer is not good enough. D.They suspect the offer only lasts a short time. 29.What aspect of the nine further experiments is introduced in Paragraph 4? A.The moral concerns. B.The research method. G.The experiments'duration. D.The participants'background. B0.Which psychological factor best explains the findings of the study? A.Fearful of“phantom costs”. B.Afraid of violating social norms. C.Committed to the standard economic model. D.Unconcerned about an offer's "psychological value". 31.Why does the author mention the"cheap flights"experiment? A.To stress the unpredictability of human choices. B.To illustrate how hidden motives affect people's choices. C.To emphasize the importance of providing clear examples. D.To show giving justifications can increase acceplance of offers. 0 The mission is simple.Arrive on foreign soil,fit in and wait.Then,when the time is right,emerge from the shadows and take over.This procedure,familiar from spy fiction as the preserve of sleeper agents,is also the strategy of certain invasive plant species. Invasive species that stay put,known as sleeper species,are not hard-wired to do so.Their natural tendency to expand is,instead,held back by some external factor.With the climate rapidly changing,Bethany Bradley at the University of Massachusetts wondered whether alterations in temperature and rainfall had the potential to activate some sleeper species.As she reports in a paper in Biological Invasions,the answer is a definitive yes. Dr Bradley and her team came to their conclusions by studying 1,795 plant species in north-eastern America identifiable as foreign but not yet locally listed as invasive.Of these,169 were unquestionably demonstrating invasive behaviour in other parts of the world,and causing damage to their environment.That suggested they had the capacity to cause similar damage in America too. 英语·第6页（共10页） T derine whther thu cunlitions cuminy to th region would uclivate any of these 169,the researher tiunt uleifled the vululitioum uler whleh thone mpecies would thrives ()A number of the plants on theer lint were hell l k by the vold wintern that are leas and lews common in the region.They also found that dh可e4 rpirel morr ralnfall that件yTi'l, Arcording to the team's fimdlings,elimnte chnnge is on truck to uwaken 18 sleeper species that could cae serioia enyirommeninl and momomle prollemm.Dr Bradlny emlimates that they will start to mnake themselves felt betwren 2040)andl 2060)if something is not done woon, T'he mst pructical course of nction,In her view,is to seek these sleeper species out before they are able to spread.Removing them tolay may be expensive,but it will be far cheaper than trying to weed them out tomorrow. 32.What strategy do sleeper speeien employ? A.Rapidly expanding in new cnvironments, B Patiently waiting for human intervention. C.Remuining inactive until conditions ure fuvoruble. D.Avoiding detection by staying in shadowy corners. 33.What does the underlined word "hurd-wired"in Paragraph 2 mean? A.Slowly adapted. B.Solidly supported. G.Externally influenced. D.Naturally programmed. 34.What did reseurchers aim to uncover by focusing on the 169 species? A.The potential risks they could pose in the future. B.Their invasive behavior in other purts of the world. C..The reasons why they failed to survive in America. D.Possible ways to make them less common in America. 35.What's Dr Bradley's suggestion for deuling with sleeper species? A.Lt nature take ils course. B.Prevention is better than cure.

To maintain a consistent horizon line,Bush would arrange two 4x3 storage units in 62 U-shape around three walls opposite the bed.63(allow)for infinite artful displays,the storage units'open drawers can be added or removed to create endless customizations that will never look 64 (date)."These pieces aren't going to recall a certain day and age,"he says."In 10,15,20 years from now,these pieces 65 be)timelessly in fashion." 第四部分写作（共两节，满分40分）》 第一节（满分15分）》 假定你是李华，你准备参加所在国际学校组织的图书推荐(book talk)活动，做一个2分钟的演 讲(presentation),请你给英国朋友Chris写一封邮件，寻求他的建议，内容包括： 1.你的推荐书籍与理由： 2.请他分享经验和建议。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 英语·第9页（共10页） Dear Chris, I hope this email finds you well. Yours, Li Hua 第二节概要写作（满分25分） 阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。 Next time you ask ChatGPT for a cake recipe,consider how much computing power you're using:On a typical day,the artificial intelligence chatbot handles an estimated 195 million queries,consuming enough electricity to supply 23,000 US households. Will this huge energy appetite weaken efforts to combat climate change?To the contrary,it can and should be utilized to speed the green transition. It's easy to envision how things could go wrong.In the US,power-hungry AI applications are already adding to strains on electricity grids(电网). There's also a more positive scenario ()The users and owners of data centers are among the world's largest companies,with sufficient cash,long strategic horizons and public commitments to the environment. Who better to drive the tens of trillions of dollars in investment required to build clean generation,enhance power grids and achieve net-zero emissions? To an encouraging extent,it's already happening.Tech companies have long been top buyers of renewable energy,and lately they've breathed life into technologies.The more they,invest,the more they'll help innovations reach economies of scale,lowering the cost of clean energy for everyone. What,then,can policymakers do?The best approach would be a tax on carbon emissions.This would encourage investment in clean energy,help displace fossil fuel generation and promote more innovation.Beyond that,the authorities who approve new data centers should be more selective.They should require,for example, that owners invest in added clean energy capacity that can supply the grid when needed. To be sure,data processing isn't necessarily the biggest challenge of the green transition;by one estimate, it accounted for less than 2%of global electricity demand in 2022.Growth forecasts often prove wrong,and technological breakthroughs can change the picture.Yet the need for cleaner energy could hardly be clearer. Even if Al turns out to be a bubble(泡沫)，let it be a bubble with benefits.
