Like many of us, Marilyn Hacker and Karthika Nair were two friends separated from each other by the pandemic (流行病).
They live in Paris and are both poets. Before the pandemic, they spent lots of time on the road. Hacker was meant to be teaching in Lebanon and had to return home suddenly when the cases stared rising. And Nair, who is a dancer and usually on tour, was diagnosed with breast cancer just as France announced a lockdown (封锁).
“I had gone through chemotherapy (化疗) myself some years ago, so it was not an experience that was entirely strange to me,” Hacker says, adding that they both also live alone. “I wanted to reach out and connect with somebody with whom I had something in common.”
The two poets wrote a book together, out this month, called A Different Distance. It includes almost daily poems from March 2020 to March 2021. Hacker says she approached Nair with the idea of writing the book. As the poets responded to each other through poetry over email, Nair says, the project strengthened her friendship with Hacker. “I was afraid of my brain shutting down because chemotherapy was very heavy on me, and the possibility of maintaining a creative teamwork was just so precious.”
Normally, Hacker would like to accompany Nair to her hospital appointments and take her to lunch afterward, but under lockdown, they had to settle for meeting each other online. The poetry details not only of Nair’s illness but of what the poets were eating, reading, or listening to when isolated (隔离). They write of friends and family they lost along the year, and news they were hearing about across the world.
And as a time capsule for the pandemic, A Different Distance shows how healing it can be to hold each other close in times of distress.
4. What do Hacker and Nair have in common?
A. They lived with families in Paris, France. B. They were not influenced by the pandemic.
C. They were capable of writing poems. D. They felt great for the separation.
5. What can we learn about Hacker during the pandemic?
A. She didn’t go through chemotherapy before. B. She refused to accompany Nair to hospital.
C. She was diagnosed, with breast cancer. D. She wanted to contact with friends.
6. What does the underlined word “distress” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Happiness. B. Sadness. C. Encouragement. D. Loneliness.
7. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Two Excellent Poets: Hacker and Nair
B. A Book Introduction: A Different Distance
C. How to Properly Deal with Pandemic and Cancer
D. Poets’ Friendship and Loneliness During the Pandemic
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文体裁为记叙文。文章叙述了两位居住在巴黎的诗人Marilyn Hacker和Karthika Nair在疫情期间如何通过合作写书《不同的距离》来维持彼此之间的联系和支持的故事。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第二段中“They live in Paris and are both poets. (他们住在巴黎,都是诗人。)”可知,二人都是诗人,都能写诗。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第三段““I had gone through chemotherapy (化疗) myself some years ago, so it was not an experience that was entirely strange to me,” Hacker says, adding that they both also live alone. “I wanted to reach out and connect with somebody with whom I had something in common.” (“几年前我自己也经历过化疗,所以这对我来说并不是一个完全陌生的经历,”Hacker说,并补充说他们俩都是独居的。“我想和那些和我有共同点的人联系起来。”)”可知,Hacker 在疫情期间希望与有共同点的朋友联系。故选D。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。由最后一段“And as a time capsule for the pandemic, A Different Distance shows how healing it can be to hold each other close in times of distress. (作为大流行时间胶囊,《不同的距离》展示了在distress时刻相互拥抱是如何治愈的。)”可知,这里指的是在疫情期间人们经历的痛苦或悲伤时刻,因此distress的意思是“悲伤或痛苦”。A. Happiness幸福;B. Sadness悲伤;C. Encouragement鼓励;D. Loneliness孤独。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第一段“Like many of us, Marilyn Hacker and Karthika Nair were two friends separated from each other by the pandemic (流行病). (像我们许多人一样,Marilyn Hacker和Karthika Nair是两位因疫情而分离的朋友。)”可知,文章主要讲述了两位诗人Hacker和Nair在疫情期间通过诗歌保持联系,相互支持的故事。因此,最合适的标题是“Poets’ Friendship and Loneliness During the Pandemic (疫情期间诗人的友谊与孤独)”。故选D。
C
To celebrate the spring in Rome, they sometimes eat vignarola. Vignarola is a vegetable stew (炖菜) mixed with all things green and new. It once marked the start of the new season after the hungry gap of late winter. But in a time when frozen peas are available all year round, the dish’s amazing spring freshness no longer means as much.
Our modern food system has been able to supply us with the freshness of spring all year round, but before refrigeration (冷藏) and modern methods of agriculture, even butter and eggs were seasonal foods. However, how often do you ever taste something truly fresh? If you look closely, you’ll likely notice much of the produce at your local supermarket isn’t quite as fresh as you thought. I recently met a British farmer who produces salad greens. He told me he can taste a huge difference between a leaf that is a day old and one that is three days old and that, by five days, the taste is greatly dulled, despite the leaves still looking green and bright. Because of this, the average shopper is none the wiser in regard to the freshness of produce. The same goes for much of the food you buy. The label says “fresh” but what this actually means is something closer to “not rotten (腐烂的).”
Our entire food supply is based on the idea of “fresh” and “keeping things fresh”. But to keep things fresh is a kind of cheat, because something can only truly be considered fresh when it has just been taken out of the ground or has just been cooked. The “fresh” food and drink in our supermarkets has often been on a surprisingly long journey in the global cold chain before it reaches us. Many refrigerated foods can be labeled as “fresh” even if they are weeks old, and fruit can still be “fresh” after being irradiated (辐照) or after having received a wax coating.
It may be impossible to measure true freshness in food, but you know it when you taste it. A couple of years ago, a friend served me a simple dish of boiled potatoes that were so fresh and waxy that every other potato I’d ever eaten seemed tasteless in my memory.
8. What can we learn from paragraph 2?
A. Supermarkets only sell vegetables that are truly fresh.
B. Supermarkets sometimes invite farmers to teach shoppers how to choose fresh produce.
C. Many people can’t actually tell whether supermarket produce is fresh or not.
D. The British farmer could find little difference between truly fresh greens and “fresh” greens.
9. Why does the author say “to keep things fresh is a kind of cheat” in paragraph 3?
A. Because many kinds of drinks are made from concentrate.
B. Because it’s impossible for the modern food system to keep food fresh.
C. Because consumers typically aren’t able to tell whether the food on sale is fresh or not.
D. Because it often takes a long time before “fresh” food appear in your local supermarket.
10. According to the author, what’s the most reliable way to tell whether food is fresh or not?
A. Check it. B. Taste it. C. Smell it. D. Cook it.
11. How does the author start and end the passage?
A. By telling stories of her friends.
B. By introducing traditional foods.
C. By showing examples of truly fresh food.
D. By sharing her experience of eating truly fresh food.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文体裁为说明文。文章通过介绍传统的春季菜肴vignarola,引出对现代食品系统中“新鲜”食物概念的讨论。文章详细解释了现代冷藏技术和供应链如何影响食物的新鲜度,并通过具体例子说明了消费者在辨别食物新鲜度方面的困难。最后,作者通过个人经历强调了品尝是辨别食物新鲜度最可靠的方法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段中“Because of this, the average shopper is none the wiser in regard to the freshness of produce. The same goes for much of the food you buy. The label says “fresh” but what this actually means is something closer to “not rotten (腐烂的).” (正因为如此,一般购物者对农产品的新鲜度一无所知。你买的很多食物也是如此。标签上写着“新鲜”,但实际上它的意思更接近于“不腐烂”。)”可知,许多人其实无法分辨超市里的农产品是否新鲜。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第三段“Our entire food supply is based on the idea of “fresh” and “keeping things fresh”. But to keep things fresh is a kind of cheat, because something can only truly be considered fresh when it has just been taken out of the ground or has just been cooked. The “fresh” food and drink in our supermarkets has often been on a surprisingly long journey in the global cold chain before it reaches us. Many refrigerated foods can be labeled as “fresh” even if they are weeks old, and fruit can still be “fresh” after being irradiated (辐照) or after having received a wax coating. (我们的整个食品供应都是基于“新鲜”和“保持新鲜”的理念。但保持新鲜是一种欺骗,因为只有刚从地里挖出来或刚煮熟的东西才能被认为是新鲜的。我们超市里的“新鲜”食品和饮料在到达我们这里之前,往往要经过全球冷链的漫长旅程。许多冷藏食品即使已经存放了几个星期,也可以贴上“新鲜”的标签,水果在经过辐照或涂上一层蜡后仍然可以是“新鲜”的。)”可知,作者认为保持食物新鲜是一种欺骗,因为所谓的“新鲜”食物在到达超市之前往往经历了漫长的运输过程。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。由文章最后一段中“It may be impossible to measure true freshness in food, but you know it when you taste it. (衡量食物的真正新鲜度可能是不可能的,但当你品尝它的时候你就知道了。)”可知,作者认为辨别食物是否新鲜最可靠的方法是品尝。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第一段中“To celebrate the spring in Rome, they sometimes eat vignarola. Vignarola is a vegetable stew (炖菜) mixed with all things green and new. It once marked the start of the new season after the hungry gap of late winter. But in a time when frozen peas are available all year round, the dish’s amazing spring freshness no longer means as much. (在罗马,为了庆祝春天,他们有时会吃vignarola。Vignarola是一种蔬菜炖菜,混合了所有绿色和新鲜的东西。)”可知,作者以介绍传统食物vignarola开始文章。由文章最后一段中“A couple of years ago, a friend served me a simple dish of boiled potatoes that were so fresh and waxy that every other potato I’d ever eaten seemed tasteless in my memory. (几年前,一个朋友给我做了一盘简单的煮土豆,它是如此的新鲜和糯,以至于我吃过的其他土豆在我的记忆中似乎都没有味道。)”可知,作者以分享自己吃新鲜土豆的经历结束文章。作者通过展示真正新鲜食物的例子开始和结束这篇文章。故选C。
D
When we’re trying to decide which cell phone case to buy or which hotel room to book, we often rely on the ratings and reviews of others to help us choose. But research suggests that we tend to use this information in ways that can actually work to our disadvantage.
“It’s extremely common for websites and apps to display the average score of a product along with the number of reviews. Our research suggests that, in some cases, people might take this information and make bad decisions with it,” says researcher Derek Powell of Stanford University, the lead author on the study.
“We found that people were biased (有偏见的) toward choosing to buy more popular products and that this sometimes led them to make very poor decisions,” he explains.
As opportunities to buy products online increase, we can easily get first-hand information about users’ experiences.
“We wanted to examine how people use this wealth of information when they make decisions, and specifically how they weigh information about other people’s decisions,” says Powell.
Looking at actual products available on Amazon.com, Powell and his colleagues found no relationship between the number of reviews a product had and its average rating. In other words, real-world data show that a large number of reviews are not a reliable indicator of a product’s quality.
In one online experiment, 132 adult participants looked at a series of phone cases presented in pairs. The participants saw an average user rating and total number of reviews for each phone case and expressed which case in each pair they would buy.
Across various combinations of average rating and the number of reviews, participants usually chose the option with more reviews. This bias was so strong that they often preferred the more-reviewed phone case even when both of the options had low ratings, effectively choosing the product that was, in statistical (统计学的) terms, more likely to be low quality.
12. What does Powell’s research show about people’s use of ratings and reviews while choosing products?
A. It is always helpful for making smart decisions.
B. It leads to the bias that can result in poor decision-making.
C. It enables people to make informed decisions.
D. It allows users to choose fine quality products out of poor ones.
13. What is the focus of the research by Powell and his colleagues?
A. How wealth influences consumers’ choice of products.
B. How past experiences influence consumers’ choice of products.
C. How product quality influences consumers’ choice of products.
D. How information online influences consumers’ choice of products.
14. What do the participants’ choices in the experiment show?
A. They show a preference for higher-priced goods.
B. They balance quality and quantity of reviews well.
C. They show a strong bias toward less-reviewed options.
D. They often choose more-reviewed products even with low ratings.
15. What does the author think of using reviews and ratings for buying products?
A. It is a reasonable method. B. It is possibly misleading.
C. It is a future mainstream trend. D. It is biased against quality products.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文体裁为说明文。文章通过介绍研究人员Derek Powell及其团队的研究成果,解释了人们在选择产品时如何依赖评分和评论,并探讨了这种依赖可能导致的不良决策。文章详细描述了研究背景、方法和结果,旨在向读者说明评分和评论在某些情况下可能带来的负面影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第三段““We found that people were biased (有偏见的) toward choosing to buy more popular products and that this sometimes led them to make very poor decisions,” he explains. (“我们发现人们倾向于选择购买更受欢迎的产品,这有时会导致他们做出非常糟糕的决定,”他解释道。)”可知,Powell的研究表明,人们在选择产品时依赖评分和评论会导致偏见,从而做出糟糕的决定。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第五段““We wanted to examine how people use this wealth of information when they make decisions, and specifically how they weigh information about other people’s decisions,” says Powell. (Powell说:“我们想研究人们在做决定时是如何使用这些丰富的信息的,特别是他们是如何权衡他人决定的信息的。”)”可知,Powell和他的同事的研究重点是在线信息如何影响消费者的决策。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由文章最后一段中“This bias was so strong that they often preferred the more-reviewed phone case even when both of the options had low ratings, effectively choosing the product that was, in statistical (统计学的) terms, more likely to be low quality. (这种偏见是如此强烈,以至于他们往往更喜欢评价更高的手机壳,即使这两种选择的评分都很低,实际上是选择了从统计学角度来看更有可能是低质量的产品。)”可知,实验参与者经常选择评论数量更多的产品,即使这些产品的评分较低。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第一段“When we’re trying to decide which cell phone case to buy or which hotel room to book, we often rely on the ratings and reviews of others to help us choose. But research suggests that we tend to use this information in ways that can actually work to our disadvantage. (当我们试图决定买哪个手机壳或预订哪个酒店房间时,我们经常依靠别人的评分和评论来帮助我们选择。但研究表明,我们倾向于以对自己不利的方式使用这些信息。)”和最后一段中“This bias was so strong that they often preferred the more-reviewed phone case even when both of the options had low ratings, effectively choosing the product that was, in statistical (统计学的) terms, more likely to be low quality. (这种偏见是如此强烈,以至于他们往往更喜欢评价更高的手机壳,即使这两种选择的评分都很低,实际上是选择了从统计学角度来看更有可能是低质量的产品。)”可知,作者认为使用评分和评论购买产品可能是误导性的。故选B。

Like many of us, Marilyn Hacker and Karthika Nair were two friends separated from each other by the pandemic (流行病).
They live in Paris and are both poets. Before the pandemic, they spent lots of time on the road. Hacker was meant to be teaching in Lebanon and had to return home suddenly when the cases stared rising. And Nair, who is a dancer and usually on tour, was diagnosed with breast cancer just as France announced a lockdown (封锁).
“I had gone through chemotherapy (化疗) myself some years ago, so it was not an experience that was entirely strange to me,” Hacker says, adding that they both also live alone. “I wanted to reach out and connect with somebody with whom I had something in common.”
The two poets wrote a book together, out this month, called A Different Distance. It includes almost daily poems from March 2020 to March 2021. Hacker says she approached Nair with the idea of writing the book. As the poets responded to each other through poetry over email, Nair says, the project strengthened her friendship with Hacker. “I was afraid of my brain shutting down because chemotherapy was very heavy on me, and the possibility of maintaining a creative teamwork was just so precious.”
Normally Hacker would like to accompany Nair to her hospital appointments and take her to lunch afterward, but under lockdown, they had to settle for meeting each other online. The poetry details not only of Nair’s illness but of what the poets were eating, reading, or listening to when isolated (隔离). They write of friends and family they lost along the year, and news they were hearing about across the world.
And as a time capsule for the pandemic, A Different Distance shows how healing it can be to hold each other close in times of distress.
4. What do Hacker and Nair have in common?
A. They lived with families in Paris, France. B. They were not influenced by the pandemic.
C. They were capable of writing poems. D. They felt great for the separation.
5. What can we learn about Hacker during the pandemic?
A. She didn’t go through chemotherapy before. B. She refused to accompany Nair to hospital.
C. She was diagnosed, with breast cancer. D. She wanted to contact with friends.
6. What does the underlined word “distress” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Happiness. B. Sadness. C. Encouragement. D. Loneliness.
7. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Two Excellent Poets: Hacker and Nair
B. A Book Introduction: A Different Distance
C. How to Properly Deal with Pandemic and Cancer
D. Poets’ Friendship and Loneliness During the Pandemic
C
To celebrate the spring in Rome, they sometimes eat vignarola. Vignarola is a vegetable stew (炖菜) mixed with all things green and new. It once marked the start of the new season after the hungry gap of late winter. But in a time when frozen peas are available all year round, the dish’s amazing spring freshness no longer means as much.
Our modern food system has been able to supply us with the freshness of spring all year round, but before refrigeration (冷藏) and modern methods of agriculture, even butter and eggs were seasonal foods. However, how often do you ever taste something truly fresh? If you look closely, you’ll likely notice much of the produce at your local supermarket isn’t quite as fresh as you thought. I recently met a British farmer who produces salad greens. He told me he can taste a huge difference between a leaf that is a day old and one that is three days old and that, by five days, the taste is greatly dulled, despite the leaves still looking green and bright. Because of this, the average shopper is none the wiser in regard to the freshness of produce. The same goes for much of the food you buy. The label says “fresh” but what this actually means is something closer to “not rotten (腐烂的).”
Our entire food supply is based on the idea of “fresh” and “keeping things fresh”. But to keep things fresh is a kind of cheat, because something can only truly be considered fresh when it has just been taken out of the ground or has just been cooked. The “fresh” food and drink in our supermarkets has often been on a surprisingly long journey in the global cold chain before it reaches us. Many refrigerated foods can be labeled as “fresh” even if they are weeks old, and fruit can still be “fresh” after being irradiated (辐照) or after having received a wax coating.
It may be impossible to measure true freshness in food, but you know it when you taste it. A couple of years ago, a friend served me a simple dish of boiled potatoes that were so fresh and waxy that every other potato I’d ever eaten seemed tasteless in my memory.
8. What can we learn from paragraph 2?
A. Supermarkets only sell vegetables that are truly fresh.
B. Supermarkets sometimes invite farmers to teach shoppers how to choose fresh produce.
C. Many people can’t actually tell whether supermarket produce is fresh or not.
D. The British farmer could find little difference between truly fresh greens and “fresh” greens.
9. Why does the author say “to keep things fresh is a kind of cheat” in paragraph 3?
A. Because many kinds of drinks are made from concentrate.
B Because it’s impossible for the modern food system to keep food fresh.
C. Because consumers typically aren’t able to tell whether the food on sale is fresh or not.
D. Because it often takes a long time before “fresh” food appear in your local supermarket.
10. According to the author, what’s the most reliable way to tell whether food is fresh or not?
A. Check it. B. Taste it. C. Smell it. D. Cook it.
11. How does the author start and end the passage?
A. By telling stories of her friends.
B. By introducing traditional foods.
C. By showing examples of truly fresh food.
D. By sharing her experience of eating truly fresh food.
D
When we’re trying to decide which cell phone case to buy or which hotel room to book, we often rely on the ratings and reviews of others to help us choose. But research suggests that we tend to use this information in ways that can actually work to our disadvantage.
“It’s extremely common for websites and apps to display the average score of a product along with the number of reviews. Our research suggests that, in some cases, people might take this information and make bad decisions with it,” says researcher Derek Powell of Stanford University, the lead author on the study.
“We found that people were biased (有偏见的) toward choosing to buy more popular products and that this sometimes led them to make very poor decisions,” he explains.
As opportunities to buy products online increase, we can easily get first-hand information about users’ experiences.
“We wanted to examine how people use this wealth of information when they make decisions, and specifically how they weigh information about other people’s decisions,” says Powell.
Looking at actual products available on Amazon.com, Powell and his colleagues found no relationship between the number of reviews a product had and its average rating. In other words, real-world data show that a large number of reviews are not a reliable indicator of a product’s quality.
In one online experiment, 132 adult participants looked at a series of phone cases presented in pairs. The participants saw an average user rating and total number of reviews for each phone case and expressed which case in each pair they would buy.
Across various combinations of average rating and the number of reviews, participants usually chose the option with more reviews. This bias was so strong that they often preferred the more-reviewed phone case even when both of the options had low ratings, effectively choosing the product that was, in statistical (统计学的) terms, more likely to be low quality.
12. What does Powell’s research show about people’s use of ratings and reviews while choosing products?
A. It is always helpful for making smart decisions.
B. It leads to the bias that can result in poor decision-making.
C. It enables people to make informed decisions.
D. It allows users to choose fine quality products out of poor ones.
13. What is the focus of the research by Powell and his colleagues?
A. How wealth influences consumers’ choice of products.
B. How past experiences influence consumers’ choice of products.
C. How product quality influences consumers’ choice of products.
D. How information online influences consumers’ choice of products.
14. What do the participants’ choices in the experiment show?
A. They show a preference for higher-priced goods.
B. They balance quality and quantity of reviews well.
C. They show a strong bias toward less-reviewed options.
D. They often choose more-reviewed products even with low ratings.
15. What does the author think of using reviews and ratings for buying products?
A. It is a reasonable method. B. It is possibly misleading.
C. It is a future mainstream trend. D. It is biased against quality products.
