正确率:
On March 7,1907,the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what
has come to be known as the "wisdom of crowds"effect.The experiment of estimation he conducted
showed that in some cases,the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite
accurate.
This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors,those errors aren't always the
same.Some people will tend to overestimate,and some to underestimate.When enough of these errors
are averaged together,they cancel each other out,resulting in a more accurate estimate.If people are
similar and tend to make the same errors,then their errors won't cancel each other out.In more
technical terms,the wisdom of crowds requires that people's estimates be independent.If for whatever
reasons,people's errors become correlated or dependent,the accuracy of the estimate will go down.
But a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist (on this classic
phenomenon.The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller
groups that were allowed to have a discussion,the averages from these groups were more accurate than
those from an equal number of independent individuals.For instance,the average obtained from the
estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained
from 20 independent individuals.
In a follow-up study with 100 university students,the researchers tried to get a better sense of
what the group members actually did in their discussion.Did they tend to go with those most confident
about their estimates?Did they follow those least willing to change their minds?This happened some of
the time,but it wasn't the dominant response.Most frequently,the groups reported that they "shared
arguments and reasoned together."Somehow,these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global
reduction in error.Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain the
potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are enormous.
1.What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?
A.The methods of estimation.
B.The underlying logic of the effect.
C.The causes of people's errors.
D.The design of Galton's experiment.
2.Navajas'study found that the average accuracy could increase even if
A.the crowds were relatively small
B.there were occasional underestimates
C.individuals did not communicate
D.estimates were not fully independent
3.What did the follow-up study focus on?
A.The size of the groups.
B.The dominant members.
C.The discussion process.
D.The individual estimates.
4.What is the author's attitude toward Navajas'studies?
A.Unclear.
B.Dismissive.
C.Doubtful.
D.Approving.

My daughter and I collected the empty cans and bottles in our home this morning.We had 6 full
garbage bags later so I knew we would be spending a bit more of time at the recycling center.When we
got there,a man and his kids were also doing the morning recyeling and were using two of the four
machines to recycle their plastic and cans.Luckily,we were able to use the 2 remaining machines.
Of course,there were others that came,but when they saw the two families with garbage bags full
of recycled things,they quickly left.However,one woman came in with just 5 cans and looked as if she
was in a hurry.So I stopped what I was doing and let her in to recycle her cans.Of course,she was
grateful,and it felt good to let her go ahead of me.But that was not the whole story.
My daughter and I continued to work through the bags,but the plastic recycling machine stopped
working because it was full,My daughter was left with nothing to do.The other family was still using
the other two plastic recycling machines,but it seemed that they were almost done.I just told my
daughter we would have to wait until they were done.But the man of the other family came through
with another act of kindness.He offered to let us go ahead of him.I was really surprised,because we
had more than 5 bottles,but he didn't seem to mind.I happily accepted it.
It was great to give and then to get an act of kindness in turn.It was small,I didn't expect it,but it
surely brightened up my day.

Nearly a fifth of items that households place in their recycling bin could end up in landfill,
according to new data,because people are wrongly "wish-cycling".Toothpaste tubes,coffee cups,juice
cartons and salad bags are among the biggest items to be incorrectly thrown in the recycling bin,
according to Biffa.
Non-recyclable items are removed before the recycling process.But the company warned that other
contaminants such as food or liquids can mean that potential recycling is also thrown away.
The amount of non-recyclables placed in the wrong bin is rising even as people are becoming more
eco-conscious.The company called on people to stop "wish-cycling"and advised always checking labels
before putting items in the recycling bin.
David Heaton,a business director at Biffa,said this of the findings,"Contamination()happens
when items are thrown away in the wrong bins or haven't been cleaned before being recycled."
"It means recyclable resources are lost and cannot be reused.It's important that people understand
what should go in the recycling bin and how to 'pre-cycle(to clean a tub or tray()if it's got food on
it,for example)'so we can recycle as much material as possible."When a contaminant can't be
recycled,pickers will remove the waste and send it for processing further,with landfill being a last
resort(步骤).
Campaigners have argued that packaging labels and different standards make it too difficult for
people to understand what they should be recycling.But most packaging will say whether it is
recyclable or not.Biffa also recommends checking the resin code-the number in the plastic triangle-to
know whether it can be recycled.Numbers 1,2,4 and 5 are "generally"recyclable,while 3,6 and 7
are not.
1.How does the author introduce "wish-cycling"in Paragraph 1?
A.By giving examples.
B.By providing data.
C.By making comparisons.
D.By quoting a celebrity.
2.What mainly caused contamination according to David Heaton?
A.The loss of recyclable resources.
B.Improper procedures of the pickers.
C.Washing containers before recycling.
D.Sorting the garbage in a wrong way.
3.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.Numbers 1,2 and 3 mean "generally"recyclable.
B.All packaging gives information related to recycling.
C.Governments will apply the same standard to recycling.
D.There exist some challenges to more efficient recycling.
4.What does the text seem to advocate?
A.Landfill.
B.Pre-cycling.
C.Wish-cycling.
D.Non-recycling.

Are you sometimes stressed?Singing is a simple and effective way to reduce stress.It is beneficial
mainly in the following three aspects.
Physical Benefits
1 This is especially recommended for the elders and those who have some form of disability in
their voice.However,it is important to find a capable instructor to employ good singing techniques so as
not to further damage vocal cords()or lungs.
Singing also helps to improve your posture().Most people think that singing begins and ends
with their mouth.2 Singing practice will get you used to the proper body position of standing and
help you form the good habit of standing straight.
Emotional Benefits
Singing helps in reducing your depression and lowering your stress level.When you sing,your body
releases chemicals that make you feel happy,easing the tension and helping you to relax.3
Social Benefits
The social benefits of singing are huge.4 So people who suffer from stage fright are advised to
sing in front of family and friends before a live performance.
Singing is also very good for improving your communication skills.It is said that singing to babies
helps to prepare their brains for language and may lessen the risk of language problems later in life.
5 The time spent in group singing,whether in a choir or at karaoke,creates a deep and lasting bond
of friendship.
A.Try to regain your memory by singing.
B.First,it can help build up your confidence greatly.
C.When you sing,you can give your lungs a workout.
D.Singing helps you to strengthen your immune system.
E.For adults,singing also enlarges your circle of friends.
F.In fact,the position of each body part affects your voice.
G.So,start to sing your favorite song next time you are feeling upset.
