PRACTITIONERS
Jacqueline Felice de Almania (c.1322) highlights the suspicion that women practicing medicine faced. Born to a Jewish family in Florence, she moved to Paris where she worked as a physician and performed surgery. In 1322 she was tried for practicing unlawfully. In spite of the court hearing testimonials (证明) of her ability as a doctor, she was banned from medicine.
45
James Barry (c.1789-1865) was born Margaret Bulkley in Ireland but, dressed as a man, she was accepted by Edinburgh University to study medicine. She qualified as a surgeon in 1813, then joined the British Army, serving overseas. Barry retired in 1859, having practiced her entire medical profession living and working as a man.
Tan Yunxian (1461-1554) was a Chinese physician who learned her skills from her grandparents. Chinese women at the time could not serve apprenticeships (学徒期) with doctors. However, Tan passed the official exam. Tan treated women from all walks of life. In 1511, Tan wrote a book, Sayings of a Female Doctor, describing her life as a physician.

(杰奎琳)和James (詹姆斯)的共同点是都有资格进行外科手术。故选C。
2.How was Tan Yunxian different from the other practitioners?
A.She wrote a book.
B.She went through trials.
C.She worked as a dentist.
D.She had formal education.
解析:推理判断题。通读全文,再根据第三部分中的“Tan wrote a book ... as a physician”可推知,谈允贤与其他从业人员的不同之处在于她写了一本书。故选A。
3.Who was the first African American with a medical degree?
A.Jacqueline Felice de Almania.
B.Tan Yunxian.
C.James Barry.
D.Rebecca Lee Crumpler.

(2023·新课标Ⅰ卷)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
51
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 (转折) 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.
52
In a followup 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 decisionmaking are enormous.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“群体智慧”效应的相关研究,包括这一效应的基本逻辑、相关的研究过程和发现以及这些研究的重要意义。
53
4.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.
解析:段落大意题。通读第二段可知,本段阐述了人们估算的误差并不总是相同的,当这些误差足够多并被平均开来时,它们会相互抵消,就会产生更准确的估算值。因此本段主要解释了“群体智慧”效应这一现象的基本逻辑。故选B。
5.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
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people's estimates be independent.”和第三段中的“The key finding ... obtained from 20 independent individuals.”可知,第二段提到更准确的估算要求人们的估算是独立的,但第三段提出人们在没有独立的情况下,分成更小群体,平均值更准确了,说明即使在估算数字并非完全独立的情况下,准确率提高也是可以做到的。故选D。
6.What did the followup study focus on?
A.The size of the groups.
B.The dominant members.
C.The discussion process.
D.The individual estimates.
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的“In a followup study ... in their discussion.(在一项针对100名大学生的后续研究中,研究人员试图更好地了解小组成员在讨论中的实际行为。)”可推知,后续研究的重点是小组内的讨论过程。故选C。
7.What is the author's attitude toward Navajas' studies?
A.Unclear. B.Dismissive.
C.Doubtful. D.Approving.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“Although the studies ... decisionmaking are enormous. (尽管Navajas领导的研究有局限性且存在许多问题,但对小组讨论和决策的潜在影响是巨大的。)”可推知,作者对于Navajas的研究表示一定的赞许和支持。故选D。
Ⅳ 七选五
(2024·全国甲卷)What is moderation (适度)? Basically, it means eating only as much food as your body needs. You should feel satisfied at the end of a meal, but not too full. __1__ But it doesn't mean saying goodbye to the foods you love.
Take your time. It's important to slow down and think about food as something nutritious rather than just something to eat in between meetings. __2__ It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly and stop eating before you feel full.
58

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在饮食上注意节制及其如何节制的方法。
61
解析:文章开头提出问题“什么是适度?”,设空前对这个问题作出了解释,设空后又讲到适度不是要放弃自己喜欢的食物,因此设空处应承接上文,就适度进行进一步解释,且与设空后内容形成转折。F项(对我们很多人来说,适度意味着吃得比平时少。)与上下文衔接紧密。F项中的“means”与上文的“means”和下文的“mean”相呼应。故选F。
1.答案:F
解析:根据上文“Take your time ... in between meetings.”可知,本段主要建议吃东西要细嚼慢咽,不要过于急躁,C项(不要在上班的路上狼吞虎咽。)承接上文,符合语境。故选C。
2.答案:C
解析:上文讲到了“And be careful about the foods ... at the ready, like cookies.(注意你手边的食物。如果你有不健康的零食随时可食用,比如饼干,那么适度饮食就更具挑战性了。)”,因此设空处应也与适度饮食的正确做法有关。E项(相反,让自己置身于健康的选择中。)承接上文。故选E。
3.答案:E
解析:设空后讲到了“Many of us also turn to ... such as sadness, loneliness, or boredom.(我们中有许多人还借助食物应对不愉快的情绪,比如悲伤、孤独或无聊。)”,根据“also”可知,设空处也应与人们吃东西的目的有关。B项(我们并不总是为了充饥而吃东西。)符合语境。故选B。
4.答案:B
解析:设空处位于段首,是段落主旨句。根据设空后的“A healthy breakfast”“Avoid eating late at night.”“Try to eat dinner earlier ... the next morning.”可知,本段主要讲的是从早到晚如何合理饮食。A项(全天合理饮食。)适合作为本段的主旨句。故选A。
5.答案:A
