【原文】M: Hi, Emily! How was your first surfing lesson on Wednesday?
W: You should have been there, Micheal. It was unbelievable. I couldn’t even stand up on the surfboard.
M: Well, who taught you?
W: My brother offered to teach me.
M: That’s good. He must be a good coach.
W: Not really. He started surfing at 15 and got a professional certificate at 22. Now he has been doing that for ten years. I’d have thought he would be good at teaching others to surf, but I was totally wrong! My brother may be an excellent surfer, but he is impatient and doesn’t master suitable teaching methods. So he is not cut out to be a surfing instructor.
M: Well, why don’t you call me to go with you next time? I’d be willing to give it a shot. I know a thing or two about surfing.
W: Thanks, but as far as I’m concerned, I don’t think I will pick up the surfboard again. Surfing is just too hard for me.
M: Come on, Emily. Try again. I’m free these two days.
W: OK, but I just had a terrible experience the day before yesterday. Let’s do that tomorrow.

B. They help people make up faster.
C. They attract like-minded people.
【答案】18. B 19. C 20. A
【解析】
【原文】There is a saying, “China has the best teahouses in the world and Chengdu has the best teahouses in China.” After I came to Chengdu, I often go to the teahouse, because the atmosphere is completely different from that in the coffee shops in my country. Every time I enter the teahouse. the waiters or waitresses will greet me with a smile on their faces and with teapots and cups in their hands. People who go there are not all thirsty, because teahouses are also good places for business talk. I’ve invited my business partner to meet there. People have parties there at times. They eat fruit and sunflower seeds while chatting. Some teahouses even have stages for performances, such as storytelling, cross talk and Sichuan Opera, which hold people’s attention. Besides, like-minded people pay a little money and then can sit there all day long to chat with each other. Sometimes when a group of people have an argument, a peacekeeper will bring them to the teahouse. It’s interesting that as soon as the angry people sit down to drink tea, they almost calm down. With the help of the peacekeeper, their problems can be easily settled. The person who is wrong will pay for the tea and then they make it up. This convinces me that teahouses have some powerful social function.

Many kids who grow up in big cities have lots of opportunities to experience science hands-on. There are zoos, museums and school field trips. But those conditions are sometimes out of reach for lower-income children. And in some rural areas, those opportunities simply don’t exist at all.
Dan Sudran has taken it upon himself to help close the gap. Growing up a good, studious kid in Kansas, he followed the rules and went to college, then law school. But he was confused. “I couldn’t really figure out what I was or what I was supposed to be,” Sudran says. Sudran finally had his answer in his late 30s. He started taking apart electronics and collecting materials from the beach. In school, science had held no interest for him at all. But out in the real world, it turned out to be the thing he’d been missing all along. “My life becomes better since I got into science,” Sudran says.
And that inspired him. What if he could give children the same experience he’d waited 30 years to discover? So Sudran got a college to donate some space and equipment. Pretty soon, a small nonprofit project called the Community Science Workshop Network was born.
Today there are six workshops almost all in low-income neighborhoods around California. One of the workshops is filled with stuff: microscopes, power tools, even a turtle and a snake. There’s no curriculum, nothing to memorize but tools to play and experiment with. Eighth-grader Jose Vega is working hard at building a robot while Esteban Espinoza, 6, is getting tadpoles (蝌蚪) out of a tank to examine them under a microscope. One group of kids are spreading out on the floor, trying to figure out how to build a hot air balloon.
Sudran’s dream, he says, is to take this model of quick hands-on science all over the world. Next up, Sudran hopes, will be the small Southern California desert town of Coachella.
24. What can we know about Dan Sudran from the first two paragraphs?
A. He makes a clear plan for his life. B. He had vast experience in field trips.
C. He has a strong sense of responsibility. D. He showed an interest in science at school.
25. What gave Sudran the idea for the Community Science Workshop Network?

And in some rural areas, those opportunities simply don’t exist at all.(但这些条件有时对低收入家庭的儿童来说是遥不可及的。在一些农村地区,这样的机会根本就不存在。)”和第二段“Dan Sudran has taken it upon himself to help close the gap.(Dan Sudran已经承担起帮助缩小这一差距的责任。)”可知,Dan Sudran很有责任心,想要帮助缩小城乡儿童在科学实践机会上的差距。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段下半部分“He started taking apart electronics and collecting materials from the beach. In school, science had held no interest for him at all. But out in the real world, it turned out to be the thing he’d been missing all along. ‘My life becomes better since I got into science,’ Sudran says.(他开始拆解电子产品,并从海滩上收集材料。在学校里,他对科学根本不感兴趣。但在现实世界中,这正是他一直想念的东西。Sudran说:‘自从我进入科学领域,我的生活变得更好了’。)”和第三段中“And that inspired him. What if he could give children the same experience he’d waited 30 years to discover? So Sudran got a college to donate some space and equipment. Pretty soon, a small nonprofit project called the Community Science Workshop Network was born.(这激发了他的灵感。如果他能给孩子们带来他等待 30 年才发现的相同体验,那会怎样?因此,Sudran 找了一所大学捐赠了一些空间和设备。很快,一个名为 Community Science Workshop Network 的小型非营利项目诞生了。)”可知,是Sudran的科学实践让他有了创建社区科学工作坊网络的想法,他想让孩子们也能体验到科学的乐趣。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Today there are six workshops, almost all in low-income neighborhoods around California. One of the workshops is filled with stuff: microscopes, power tools, even a turtle and a snake.

Though brown pelicans (鹈鹕) have bounced back from the endangered species list, they have been suffering from the second life-threatening event in recent years. Large numbers of the species are showing up sick and injured along California’s coastline, and experts are racing to find out why.
A volunteer feeds sick brown pelicans recovering at the Wetlands and Wildlife Care Center of Orange County. The center is currently caring for over 100 brown pelicans which have been discovered starving or being sick in recent weeks. During the starvation event in 2022, nearly 800 brown pelicans were admitted to wildlife nursing centers and received considerate care, with only 394 eventually returned to the wild, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The cause of the current crisis remains largely unknown, but some interesting guesses are flying about. At one point, the birds were checked for the flu that has newly infected so many animals this year. Luckily, none of the sick pelicans tested positive for it. “We don’t have any indication that it’s directly human-caused, either,” says Henkel, a senior environmental scientist. “It’s not a human action of any kind that we’re aware of.”
One theory is that powerful winds may be to blame, as low visibility could be preventing the pelicans from diving well enough to catch their meals, and hungry birds often get trapped in fishing lines. The evidence pointing to starvation as the cause may also better explain why the pelicans come in with injuries.
Those involved in brown pelican recovery efforts note that while you should keep your distance from them, humans can be of assistance by immediately reporting an animal sighting to a local rescue center and keeping an eye on it until help arrives. Such an urgent response can often mean the difference between life and death for a pelican that needs life-saving care. If you are an expert, proper treatment for the affected pelicans may involve offering them lots of nutrition and water, or caring for wounds and giving them relevant medication in the center.
28. What can we learn about brown pelicans?
A. They are newly listed as endangered. B. Their population has recovered a little.
C. They have been starved for many years. D. Their numbers decline sharply due to injury.
29. Why does the author list data in paragraph 2?
A. To prove the pelicans face severe problems. B. To highlight the mindful care for the pelicans.
C. To reveal the pelicans mainly die of hunger. D. To stress volunteers’ role in saving the pelicans.
30. What may contribute to the current crisis for brown pelicans?
A. Fishing lines. B. The flu. C. Human action. D. The weather.
31. How should an ordinary person deal with a sick brown pelican?
A. Feed food and water to it. B. Rush it to a rescue center.
C Seek timely professional help. D. Give it an immediate exam.
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D 31. C
【解析】

【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Though brown pelicans (鹈鹕) have bounced back from the endangered species list, they have been suffering from the second life-threatening event in recent years.(虽然褐鹈鹕已经从濒危物种名单中恢复过来,但近年来它们一直遭受着第二次威胁生命的事件)”可知,褐鹈鹕的数量有所恢复。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The center is currently caring for over 100 brown pelicans which have been discovered starving or being sick in recent weeks. During the starvation event in 2022, nearly 800 brown pelicans were admitted to wildlife nursing centers and received considerate care, with only 394 eventually returned to the wild, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.(该中心目前正在照顾100多只褐鹈鹕,这些褐鹈鹕最近几周被发现饥饿或生病。根据美国鱼类和野生动物管理局的数据,在2022年的饥饿事件中,近800只褐鹈鹕被送入野生动物护理中心,得到了周到的照顾,只有394只最终回到了野外)”可知,这些数据用来证明褐鹈鹕面临的问题很严重。故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“One theory is that powerful winds may be to blame, as low visibility could be preventing the pelicans from diving well enough to catch their meals, and hungry birds often get trapped in fishing lines.(一种理论认为,强风可能是罪魁祸首,因为低能见度可能会阻止鹈鹕潜入足够深地方捕捉食物,饥饿的鸟儿经常被鱼线困住)”可知,天气导致了褐鹈鹕的饥饿危机。故选D。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Those involved in brown pelican recovery efforts note that while you should keep your distance from them, humans can be of assistance by immediately reporting an animal sighting to a local rescue center and keeping an eye on it until help arrives.(那些参与褐鹈鹕恢复工作的人指出,虽然你应该与它们保持距离,但人类可以通过立即向当地救援中心报告看到动物并密切关注它直到救援到来来提供帮助)”可知,普通人遇到生病的褐鹈鹕应该寻求及时的专业帮助。故选C。
D
You are more likely to think of the information that is repeated to be true than the information you hear only once. You assume that if people are going to put in effort to repeat a statement, this reflects the truth of the statement.
Simply repeating some pieces of information does not actually make it true, but this tendency — also called the illusory (错觉的) truth effect — is a prejudice that can lead you to draw the wrong conclusions. An important step in decreasing the negative influence of prejudices in thinking is to be aware of them. To what degree are people aware of the illusory truth effect? This question was addressed in the journal Cognition by Simone Mattavelli.
In the critical study, participants did two sessions. In one session, they read about a study in which people were exposed to trivia (琐事) statements and then were asked whether both statements they had heard before as well as new statements were true. They were asked to predict the percentage of each statement that would be judged as true. At another session a few days later, participants actually performed this study, reading a set of 20 trivia statements and then judging the truth of 40 statements, half of which were the ones they saw earlier and the other half of which were new.
This study replicated the illusory truth effect. People were more likely to judge statements they had seen before as true than statements that were new. Two interesting findings emerged from the predictions. First, participants tended to underestimate the size of the illusory truth effect for everyone. Second, participants were more wrong when predicting their own performance compared to predicting the performance of another person.
This work is particularly important in light of the amount of misinformation presented in social media. Many people are influencing public opinions about political and economic matters. Social media websites with misinformation will lead people to believe this information is true just because it is stated.
32. What is Simone’s study mainly about concerning the illusory truth effect?
A. People’s awareness of it. B. People’s reaction to it.
C. Its causes. D. Its process.
33. How did the participants engage in the first session of the study?
A. Reading, repeating and judging. B. Reading, assessing and forecasting.
C. Recording, judging and predicting. D. Predicting, observing and reflecting.
34. What does the underlined word “replicate” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Correspond with. B. Be contrary to. C. Put forward. D. Account for.
35. What is the author’s attitude toward Simone’s study?
A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Approving.
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了一种被称为“真相错觉效应”的心理偏见以及Simone Mattavelli关于人们对真相错觉效应意识程度的研究,并指出在社交媒体中存在大量错信息情况的下,这种研究的重要性。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“To what degree are people aware of the illusory truth effect? This question was addressed in the journal Cognition by Simone Mattavelli.(人们对真相错觉效应的意识程度如何?Simone Mattavelli在《认知》杂志上发表了关于这个问题的文章。)”可知,Simone的研究主要是关于人们对真相错觉效应的意识。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“In one session, they read about a study in which people were exposed to trivia statements and then were asked whether both statements they had heard before as well as new statements were true, They were asked to predict the percentage of each statement that would be judged as true.(在一个环节中,他们阅读了一项研究,在这项研究中,人们接触到一些琐事陈述,然后被问及他们之前听到过的陈述和新陈述是否都是真实的。他们被要求预测每个陈述被判断为真实的百分比。)”可知,在第一环节中,参与者通过阅读琐事陈述,评估这些陈述的真实性,并预测这些陈述被判断为真实的百分比,即参与者是通过“阅读、评估和预测”参与研究的第一部分的。故选B。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句下文“People were more likely to judge statements they had seen before as true than statements that were new.(人们更倾向于认为他们之前看到过的陈述是真实的,而不是那些新的陈述。)”可知,实验结果与“真相错觉效应”现象互相印证,即这项研究与真相错觉效应一致。由此可知“replicate”在此处的意思是“与……一致”。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“This work is particularly important in light of the amount of misinformation presented in social media.(考虑到社交媒体上存在的大量错误信息,这项工作尤为重要。)”可推知,作者对Simone的研究持赞成态度。故选D。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Knowing another language opens doors for kids and adults alike. But most educators agree that childhood is the ideal time for language learning. If you want your children to be bilingual (双语的), here is where to start.
You should be flexible and use the method working best for your family. Some families favor “one parent, one language”.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了帮助孩子学习双语的技巧和建议。
【36题详解】
根据上文“Some take on the task of learning a second language alongside their children.(一些家庭承担起和孩子一起学习第二语言的任务)”可知,上文提到了一些家庭的做法,可知空处内容应还是在介绍家庭所选用的学习方法,故E选项“而另一些家庭采用多种策略让孩子接触两种语言”符合语境,故选E。
37题详解】
根据上文“You’d better use all of the resources at hand. While having back-and-forth conversations with native speakers is the most effective, there are lots of other ways.(你最好利用手边所有的资源。虽然与母语人士进行来回对话是最有效的,但还有很多其他方法)”以及后文“Watching a favorite show or reading an interesting book in the non-dominant (非主导的) language can make learning enjoyable. You may also find classes and schools that teach in the language you want your children to learn.(看一个喜欢的节目或读一本有趣的非主流语言的书可以使学习变得愉快。你也可以找到用你希望孩子学习的语言授课的课程和学校)”可知,本段讲的是要利用身边一切可用的资源。空前提到虽然与母语使用者进行互动交流是最有效的,但还有很多其他方法。空后提到看一个喜欢的非主导语言的节目或读一本有趣的非主导语言的书可以使学习变得愉快。由此可知,空处应该说明这些其他方法的具体内容,且涉及节目和图书。故D选项“向孩子们介绍两种语言的电视节目、歌曲和书籍”符合语境,故选D。
【38题详解】
根据后文“Travel is one way to engage your kid in everyday situations that are meaningful and real. Exposure to the language in its real context can significantly boost a child’s interest in and understanding of the language. But time abroad is not a requirement for real interactions.(旅行是让你的孩子参与到有意义和真实的日常生活中的一种方式。在真实的语境中接触语言可以极大地提高孩子对语言的兴趣和理解。但在国外的时间并不是真正互动的必要条件)”可知,空后提到旅行是让你的孩子接触有意义和真实的日常情境的一种方式,在真实的语境中接触语言可以显著提高孩子对语言的兴趣和理解。由此可知,空处内容应涉及为孩子提供真实的语言练习机会或环境。故B选项“提供真实的口语练习机会”符合语境,故选B。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Exposure to the language in its real context can significantly boost a child’s interest in and understanding of the language. But time abroad is not a requirement for real interactions.(在真实的语境中接触语言可以极大地提高孩子对语言的兴趣和理解。但在国外的时间并不是真正互动的必要条件)”以及后文“For example, your son can use Spanish when playing with his Spanish-speaking cousins.(例如,你的儿子可以在和说西班牙语的表亲玩耍时使用西班牙语)”可知,空前提到旅行是让孩子接触真实语言环境的一种方式,但是出国旅行并不是必须的。空后是一个例子,说的是你的孩子在和说西班牙语的表亲玩的时候可以用西班牙语。由此可知,空处应该介绍其他可以提供真实语言互动的方式或情境。故G选项“事实上,他们可以和说这种语言的亲戚一起进行”符合语境,故选G。
【40题详解】
根据上文“While you can always change the language learning plan if the path you’re on isn’t working, you shouldn’t get too discouraged when things aren’t happening as quickly as you might expect.(如果你走的道路行不通,你可以随时改变语言学习计划,但当事情没有像你预期的那样迅速发生时,你不应该太沮丧)”以及后文“Language learning is a progressive and long-lasting process, and breakthroughs may come in unexpected ways and at different times for each individual.(语言学习是一个渐进而持久的过程,突破可能会以意想不到的方式在不同的时间到来)”可知,空前提到虽然你总是可以在当前的语言学习计划不起作用时进行调整,但当进展没有你预期中那么快时,你不应该太气馁。空后提到语言学习是一个渐进且长期的过程,突破可能以意想不到的方式在不同的时间点出现。由此可知,空处内容应是在解释为什么不应该太气馁。A选项“要知道表面下有很多事情在发生”暗示了语言学习是一个内在的深层次的过程,效果可能不会立即显现出来,与上下文衔接紧密,符合语境。故选A。

Good afternoon, everyone. Today, I want to talk about self-management. It is not a buzzword but a lifestyle that many people strive for. In my perspective, self-management covers conscious control over our thoughts and behaviors, so as to make our days purposeful and fulfilling.
Then how to manage ourselves properly? To begin with, make a to-do list and establish priorities. Only if we keep a sense of proportion can we be more efficient. Moreover, deadlines should be set to help us stay focused. Meanwhile, it’s recommended that we should set aside time for self-reflection to gain personal growth.

Taking swimming class was a must in Ren’s school and there was a pre-test in the third week and a final test in the last week according to the course plan.
That pre-test day came soon. The gym teacher blew the whistle (哨子) and four students dived into the swimming pool, racing to the other side, Then the next four were up, but only three stood on the diving board. “Where is Ren?” the gym teacher asked in concern.
Ren’s face turned red, and he was unsteady. He looked at the pool and stepped back. “You cannot make me do this!” he said.
Sadie, his teammate, patted him on the back gently. “You can do it! I will help you if you need it.” Ren stared into Sadie’s eyes and he calmed down.
“You can do it. You need to pass this class.” The gym teacher said, Ren stepped on the diving board, putting his goggles (护目镜) over his eyes, and the blue cap hid his red hair. The whistle blew and Ren stood there as the other three swam away. Then one boy ran and pushed Ren into the water.
Sadie glared at the boy, “Why would you do that?” A minute passed by and Ren still wasn’t coming up. Sadie jumped in and pulled him out of the water. She gave him CPR (心肺复苏), and it took a while until water came out of his lungs. Then finally he spat out the water and sat up, feeling dizzy.
Ren looked over at Sadie, who breathed a sigh of relief. “Oh, thank goodness! Why didn’t you use your arms or legs?” Ren stared away from Sadie, looking at the bottom of the blue pool, then looking up at the gym teacher who rolled his eyes. “I can’t swim. My parents never taught me as a kid. We are afraid of water.”
Sadie put her hand on his shoulder. “Don’t worry, I will teach you how to swim. The water is my favorite place to be.” Ren thought for a while, and nodded gently.

After gym class Sadie asked Ren gently why he was afraid of water. Hesitating for a second, he shared an experience that he was once narrowly drowned in the river. “Let’s face and overcome it together.” Sadie said firmly. From then on, Sadie tried all means to help Ren. Gradually Ren overcame his fear and he swam freely in the pool. Sadie encouraged him to take part in the coming final examination. When that day came, Ren stepped on the diving board and he kept calm and attentive.
The gym teacher blew the whistle and this time Ren dived bravely. He swam to the other side with incredible speed and technique. The gym teacher walked to the other side of the gym and knelt down “Incredible, Ren!”. The gym teacher helped him out of the water, shaking his hand excitedly and cheerfully. “Congratulations, you made it!” Ren hugged his teacher tightly and waved to Sadie gratefully with tears in eyes. Sometimes, it is the encouragement and support from your loved ones that help you step out of your comfort zone and overcome yourself, and develop the potential to the fullest.

Many kids who grow up in big cities have lots of opportunities to experience science hands-on. There are zoos, museums and school field trips. But those conditions are sometimes out of reach for lower-income children. And in some rural areas, those opportunities simply don’t exist at all.
Dan Sudran has taken it upon himself to help close the gap. Growing up a good, studious kid in Kansas, he followed the rules and went to college, then law school. But he was confused. “I couldn’t really figure out what I was or what I was supposed to be,” Sudran says. Sudran finally had his answer in his late 30s. He started taking apart electronics and collecting materials from the beach. In school, science had held no interest for him at all. But out in the real world, it turned out to be the thing he’d been missing all along. “My life becomes better since I got into science,” Sudran says.
And that inspired him. What if he could give children the same experience he’d waited 30 years to discover? So Sudran got a college to donate some space and equipment. Pretty soon, a small nonprofit project called the Community Science Workshop Network was born.
Today there are six workshops, almost all in low-income neighborhoods around California. One of the workshops is filled with stuff: microscopes, power tools, even a turtle and a snake. There’s no curriculum, nothing to memorize but tools to play and experiment with. Eighth-grader Jose Vega is working hard at building a robot while Esteban Espinoza, 6, is getting tadpoles (蝌蚪) out of a tank to examine them under a microscope. One group of kids are spreading out on the floor, trying to figure out how to build a hot air balloon.
Sudran’s dream, he says, is to take this model of quick hands-on science all over the world. Next up, Sudran hopes, will be the small Southern California desert town of Coachella.
24. What can we know about Dan Sudran from the first two paragraphs?
A. He makes a clear plan for his life. B. He had vast experience in field trips.
C. He has a strong sense of responsibility. D. He showed an interest in science at school.
25. What gave Sudran the idea for the Community Science Workshop Network?
A. His pursuit of better life. B. His practice of science.
C. His dream in childhood. D. His devotion to education.
26. Why does the author list examples in paragraph 4?
A. To show the function of the project. B. To reveal the history of the project.
C To stress the importance of science. D. To record the growth of the students.
27. What does Sudran decide to do next?
A. Become a science teacher. B. Build more science workshops.
C. Move to desert town of Coachella. D. Find new models of learning science.

Though brown pelicans (鹈鹕) have bounced back from the endangered species list, they have been suffering from the second life-threatening event in recent years. Large numbers of the species are showing up sick and injured along California’s coastline, and experts are racing to find out why.
A volunteer feeds sick brown pelicans recovering at the Wetlands and Wildlife Care Center of Orange County. The center is currently caring for over 100 brown pelicans which have been discovered starving or being sick in recent weeks. During the starvation event in 2022, nearly 800 brown pelicans were admitted to wildlife nursing centers and received considerate care, with only 394 eventually returned to the wild, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The cause of the current crisis remains largely unknown, but some interesting guesses are flying about. At one point, the birds were checked for the flu that has newly infected so many animals this year. Luckily, none of the sick pelicans tested positive for it. “We don’t have any indication that it’s directly human-caused, either,” says Henkel, a senior environmental scientist. “It’s not a human action of any kind that we’re aware of.”
One theory is that powerful winds may be to blame, as low visibility could be preventing the pelicans from diving well enough to catch their meals, and hungry birds often get trapped in fishing lines. The evidence pointing to starvation as the cause may also better explain why the pelicans come in with injuries.
Those involved in brown pelican recovery efforts note that while you should keep your distance from them humans can be of assistance by immediately reporting an animal sighting to a local rescue center and keeping an eye on it until help arrives. Such an urgent response can often mean the difference between life and death for a pelican that needs life-saving care. If you are an expert, proper treatment for the affected pelicans may involve offering them lots of nutrition and water, or caring for wounds and giving them relevant medication in the center.
28. What can we learn about brown pelicans?
A. They are newly listed as endangered. B. Their population has recovered a little.
C. They have been starved for many years. D. Their numbers decline sharply due to injury.
29. Why does the author list data in paragraph 2?
A. To prove the pelicans face severe problems. B. To highlight the mindful care for the pelicans.
C. To reveal the pelicans mainly die of hunger. D. To stress volunteers’ role in saving the pelicans.
30. What may contribute to the current crisis for brown pelicans?
A. Fishing lines. B. The flu. C. Human action. D. The weather.
31. How should an ordinary person deal with a sick brown pelican?
A. Feed food and water to it. B. Rush it to a rescue center.
C. Seek timely professional help. D. Give it an immediate exam.
D
You are more likely to think of the information that is repeated to be true than the information you hear only once. You assume that if people are going to put in effort to repeat a statement, this reflects the truth of the statement.
Simply repeating some pieces of information does not actually make it true, but this tendency — also called the illusory (错觉) truth effect — is a prejudice that can lead you to draw the wrong conclusions. An important step in decreasing the negative influence of prejudices in thinking is to be aware of them. To what degree are people aware of the illusory truth effect? This question was addressed in the journal Cognition by Simone Mattavelli.
In the critical study, participants did two sessions. In one session, they read about a study in which people were exposed to trivia (琐事) statements and then were asked whether both statements they had heard before as well as new statements were true. They were asked to predict the percentage of each statement that would be judged as true. At another session a few days later, participants actually performed this study, reading a set of 20 trivia statements and then judging the truth of 40 statements, half of which were the ones they saw earlier and the other half of which were new.
This study replicated the illusory truth effect. People were more likely to judge statements they had seen before as true than statements that were new. Two interesting findings emerged from the predictions. First, participants tended to underestimate the size of the illusory truth effect for everyone. Second, participants were more wrong when predicting their own performance compared to predicting the performance of another person.
This work is particularly important in light of the amount of misinformation presented in social media. Many people are influencing public opinions about political and economic matters. Social media websites with misinformation will lead people to believe this information is true just because it is stated.
32. What is Simone’s study mainly about concerning the illusory truth effect?
A. People’s awareness of it. B. People’s reaction to it.
C. Its causes. D. Its process.
33. How did the participants engage in the first session of the study?
A. Reading, repeating and judging. B. Reading, assessing and forecasting.
C. Recording, judging and predicting. D. Predicting, observing and reflecting.
34. What does the underlined word “replicate” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Correspond with. B. Be contrary to. C. Put forward. D. Account for.
35. What is the author’s attitude toward Simone’s study?
A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Approving.

Knowing another language opens doors for kids and adults alike. But most educators agree that childhood is the ideal time for language learning. If you want your children to be bilingual (双语的), here is where to start.
You should be flexible and use the method working best for your family. Some families favor “one parent, one language”. Some take on the task of learning a second language alongside their children. ____36____ Depending on your home situation, this can require a lot of planning, effort and persistence (坚持) on your part.
You’d better use all of the resources at hand. While having back-and-forth conversations with native speakers is the most effective, there are lots of other ways. ____37____ Watching a favorite show or reading an interesting book in the non-dominant (非主导的) language can make learning enjoyable. You may also find classes and schools that teach in the language you want your children to learn.
____38____ Travel is one way to engage your kid in everyday situations that are meaningful and real. Exposure to the language in its real context can significantly boost a child’s interest in and understanding of the language. But time abroad is not a requirement for real interactions. ____39____ For example, your son can use Spanish when playing with his Spanish-speaking cousins.
While you can always change the language learning plan if the path you’re on isn’t working, you shouldn’t get too discouraged when things aren’t happening as quickly as you might expect. ____40____ Language learning is a progressive and long-lasting process, and breakthroughs may come in unexpected ways and at different times for each individual.
A. Know there’s a lot happening under the surface.
B. Provide authentic opportunities for speaking practice.
C. Individuals have different levels of fluency in each language.
D. Introduce TV programs, songs and books in both languages to children.
E. And others use a mix of strategies to expose their kids to both languages.
F. Books can be used in a way that is developmentally appropriate for children.
G. As a matter of fact, they can take place with relatives speaking the language.

Taking swimming class was a must in Ren’s school and there was a pre-test in the third week and a final test in the last week according to the course plan.
That pre-test day came soon. The gym teacher blew the whistle (哨子) and four students dived into the swimming pool, racing to the other side, Then the next four were up, but only three stood on the diving board. “Where is Ren?” the gym teacher asked in concern.
Ren’s face turned red, and he was unsteady. He looked at the pool and stepped back. “You cannot make me do this!” he said.
Sadie, his teammate, patted him on the back gently. “You can do it! I will help you if you need it.” Ren stared into Sadie’s eyes and he calmed down.
“You can do it. You need to pass this class.” The gym teacher said, Ren stepped on the diving board, putting his goggles (护目镜) over his eyes, and the blue cap hid his red hair. The whistle blew and Ren stood there as the other three swam away. Then one boy ran and pushed Ren into the water.
Sadie glared at the boy, “Why would you do that?” A minute passed by and Ren still wasn’t coming up. Sadie jumped in and pulled him out of the water. She gave him CPR (心肺复苏), and it took a while until water came out of his lungs. Then finally he spat out the water and sat up, feeling dizzy.
Ren looked over at Sadie, who breathed a sigh of relief. “Oh, thank goodness! Why didn’t you use your arms or legs?” Ren stared away from Sadie, looking at the bottom of the blue pool, then looking up at the gym teacher who rolled his eyes. “I can’t swim. My parents never taught me as a kid. We are afraid of water.”
