Strickland, an expert in school design and instructor at MIT in Boston, had been hired as a consultant to help Paterson find sites for new schools. The architect hatched a grand plan to help revitalize(复兴) Paterson’s schools and the city itself. Six career academies are holding classes at old sites. These small changes have not gone unnoticed. The city, as the residents expected, has the potential to shine. A nearly unoccupied three-story shopping mall houses two schools, one focused on medical careers, the other on media arts and urban planning. English and math teachers for the two schools lead classes in storefronts that were empty just a year ago. Across town, under the thick wooden beams(横梁) of an old textile factory and a train engine plant, students with disabilities will learn about careers with the region’s transportation systems. Strickland requires his graduate students at MIT to help Paterson construct models for new building projects in the city. Jane Riesman, one of Strickland’s students, has been working with her kids on an educational park that would replace a wasteland of lifeless asphalt(沥青) and grass that stretches between two downtown schools. The surrounding neighborhood is hardly inspiring; pulling-down of a high-rise housing project is underway, showering dust everywhere. But Riesman’s students envision a very different place. One of the student models includes a swimming pool, skating court, climbing wall, sandbox, and a pond with a fountain and lots of trees. “It’s fun, and it makes us feel like we’re in charge and helping the community,” says 15-year-old Marilyn Medina, one of the model’s creators. Strickland says it’s important for the students to dream. “They’re setting a tone for the town,” he says. “The kids can push the envelope and change the culture.” 5. What was Paterson like in the past according to Paragraph 1? A. It fell into severe disrepair. B. It rarely produced any iron. C. Its textile industry was well-known. D. Its schools were completely deserted. 6. What was the residents’ attitude towards Strickland’s plan? A. Opposed. B. Favorable. C. Dismissive. D. Uncaring. 7. What can we infer about Riesman’s students? A. Diligent and innocent. B. Funny and responsible. C. Honest and trustworthy. D. Imaginative and helpful. 8. What does the text focus on? A. Transforming old buildings to shine. B. Revitalizing the city’s shopping mall. C. Developing students’ logical thinking. D. Witnessing the rise and fall of Paterson. 【答案】5. C 6. B 7. D 8. A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了建筑师Strickland及其团队通过改造废弃建筑建设新学校，激发社区活力，并让学生参与城市规划，帮助衰落的帕特森市重焕生机的故事。 5. 细节理解题。根据第一段“Like other cities in New Jersey’s Rust Belt (铁锈地带), Paterson has fallen on hard times, with its once-famous textile (纺织品) industry in disrepair and its schools abandoned. (与新泽西州铁锈地带的其他城市一样，帕特森已陷入困境，其曾经著名的纺织业破败不堪，学校也被废弃)”可知，帕特森的纺织业曾经很著名。故选C项。 6. 推理判断题。根据第三段中“These small changes have not gone unnoticed. The city, as the residents expected, has the potential to shine. (这些细微的改变并未被忽视。正如居民们所期待的那样，这座城市蕴藏着重焕光彩的潜力)”可知，居民对城市的复兴抱有期待，这表明他们对此持赞成的态度。故选B项。 7. 推理判断题。根据第五段中“But Riesman’s students envision a very different place. One of the student models includes a swimming pool, skating court, climbing wall, sandbox, and a pond with a fountain and lots of trees. “It’s fun, and it makes us feel like we’re in charge and helping the community,” says 15-year-old Marilyn Medina, one of the model’s creators. (但Riesman的学生们构想出了一个截然不同的地方。其中一个学生设计方案包含游泳池、滑冰场、攀岩墙、沙坑，以及带有喷泉和绿树成荫的景观池。15岁的Marilyn Medina是该模型的创造者之一，她说：“这很有趣，让我们觉得自己在负责并帮助社区。”)”可知，Riesman的学生们能设想出一个截然不同的地方，这体现出他们富有想象力；他们想帮助社区，这说明他们乐于助人。故选D项。 8. 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中“The architect hatched a grand plan to help revitalize (复兴) Paterson’s schools and the city itself. (这位建筑师策划了一个宏伟的计划，以帮助振兴帕特森的学校和城市本身)”可知，文章围绕通过改造旧建筑来振兴城市展开，讲述了建筑师Strickland及其团队通过改造废弃建筑建设新学校，激发社区活力，并让学生参与城市规划，帮助衰落的帕特森市重焕生机的故事。故选A项。 C AI technology has long been able to recognize patterns in music preferences and create personalized playlists. Now, a new AI system has taken this a step further by analyzing how people listen to music and identifying their unique “listening styles”. This advancement in the field of “audiometric” analysis could revolutionize how music streaming services tailor playlists to individual users, making them more personalized and enjoyable. However, there are also concerns that such systems could potentially track users’ listening habits in ways that compromise privacy. Music recommendation algorithms have been highly effective at suggesting new songs and artists. But Dr. Emily Carter, a music data scientist at the University of Music and Technology, notes that these algorithms often use a one-size-fits-all approach that doesn’t capture the nuances of individual listening behavior. To better understand and cater to individual preferences, researchers need to analyze each user’s unique listening patterns. To develop and train their AI, the researchers collected data from over 50 million listening sessions and fed it into a neural network. They tested the system by seeing how well it could distinguish between different users’ listening habits. The system was given 100 listening sessions from each of about 3,000 known users and 100 new sessions from an unknown user. The AI looked for the best match and identified the unknown user 86% of the time, according to a study presented at the International Conference on Music Information Retrieval(ISMIR). “We were quite surprised by the accuracy,” says Alex Johnson, a doctoral student in Carter’s lab and the lead author of the study. A non-AI method was only 28% accurate. “The work is really innovative,” says Dr. Sarah Kim, a music researcher. “Personalized music experiences could transform how we interact with music platforms.” The researchers are aware of the privacy implications of their system, which could potentially identify users based on their listening habits. In theory, similar systems could also analyze other behaviors, such as the types of podcasts people listen to or the timing of their music consumption. ISMIR organizers found the study technically impressive but ethically questionable, and accepted it on the condition that the researchers detail the privacy risks. Carter says they have decided, for now, not to release the software publicly. 9. What advance in AI technology is described in the article? A. It can recognize different human chess players. B. It can create personalized playlists based on unique listening styles. C. It can identify different people’s handwriting. D. It can track people’s unacceptable online behavior. 10. Why is the new AI system considered innovative according to Dr. Sarah Kim? A. It can recognize patterns in music preferences more accurately than existing algorithms. B. It uses a one-size-fits-all approach to suggest new songs. C. It can analyze the types of podcasts people listen to. D. It can identify users based on their listening habits with high accuracy. 11. What is the main concern regarding the new AI system described in the article? A. Its ability to create highly personalized playlists. B. Its potential to compromise user privacy by tracking listening habits. C. Its limited accuracy compared to non-AI methods. D. Its inability to distinguish between different users’ listening habits. 12. What is the attitude of the ISMIR organizers toward the study on the new AI system? A. Favorable. B. Disappointed. C. Careful. D. Uninterested. 【答案】9. B 10. A 11. B 12. C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新的人工智能系统，它能通过分析人们听音乐的风格来创建个性化歌单，但也存在隐私风险，研究人员暂不公开该软件。 9. 细节理解题。根据第一段“AI technology has long been able to recognize patterns in music preferences and create personalized playlists. Now, a new AI system has taken this a step further by analyzing how people listen to music and identifying their unique “listening styles”. This advancement in the field of “audiometric” analysis could revolutionize how music streaming services tailor playlists to individual users, making them more personalized and enjoyable.(人工智能技术早就能够识别音乐偏好的模式，并创建个性化的播放列表。现在，一种新的人工智能系统通过分析人们如何听音乐并识别他们独特的“听音乐的风格”，将这一技术向前推进了一步。“听力测量”分析领域的这一进步可能会彻底改变音乐流媒体服务为个人用户量身定制播放列表的方式，使它们更加个性化和令人愉快)”可知，这项人工智能技术的进步是它能基于独特的听音乐的风格来创建个性化歌单。故选B。 10. 细节理解题。根据第二段“Music recommendation algorithms have been highly effective at suggesting new songs and artists. But Dr. Emily Carter, a music data scientist at the University of Music and Technology, notes that these algorithms often use a one-size-fits-all approach that doesn’t capture the nuances of individual listening behavior.(音乐推荐算法在推荐新歌和歌手方面非常有效。但音乐科技大学的音乐数据科学家Emily Carter博士指出，这些算法通常采用一刀切的方法，无法捕捉到个人听音乐偏好上的细微差别)”以及第四段内容““The work is really innovative,” says Dr. Sarah Kim, a music researcher. “Personalized music experiences could transform how we interact with music platforms.”(“这项工作真的很有创意，”音乐研究员Sarah Kim博士说。“个性化的音乐体验可以改变我们与音乐平台的互动方式。”)”可知，现有的算法采用一刀切的方式，不能很好地捕捉个人听音乐偏好上的细微差别，而新的人工智能系统能更准确地识别音乐偏好模式，所以被认为有创新性。故选A。 11. 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“However, there are also concerns that such systems could potentially track users listening habits in ways that compromise privacy.(然而，也有人担心，这样的系统可能会以损害隐私的方式跟踪用户的收听习惯)”可知，关于这项新AI系统的主要担忧是它可能通过追踪聆听习惯侵犯用户的隐私。故选B。 12. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“ISMIR organizers found the study technically impressive but ethically questionable, and accepted it on the condition that the researchers detail the privacy risks.(ISMIR的组织者发现这项研究在技术上令人印象深刻，但在伦理上存在问题，并在研究人员详细说明隐私风险的条件下接受了这项研究)”可知，ISMIR 组织者既认可技术方面又关注伦理问题，还要求研究人员说明隐私风险，由此可推断他们的态度是谨慎的。故选C。 D Decision fatigue(决策疲劳) is a psychological phenomenon where the quality of decisions declines after a long session of decision-making. It is caused by the limited mental energy we have for making choices each day. While many of us believe we are logical beings capable of weighing every option carefully, decision fatigue shows how our mental resources can be used up over time. One of the key studies on this phenomenon was conducted in the context of parole hearings(假释听证会). Researchers found that judges were more likely to approve of parole early in the day or after a meal break. As the day progressed and the judges made more decisions, they were increasingly likely to maintain their previous decisions, denying parole simply because it required less mental effort. Decision fatigue affects not only major life choices but also everyday decisions. For instance, people often report struggling to decide what to eat for dinner after a long day. Similarly, too many choices, such as when looking through streaming platforms or online stores, can leave individuals feeling confused, leading them to abandon the process entirely or settle for a less satisfying option. To overcome decision fatigue, some well-known figures have adopted strategies to simplify their daily routines. For example, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Albert Einstein was known for owning multiple identical suits to avoid wasting energy on deciding what to wear each day. In a different context, author Haruki Murakami has shared that he maintains a strict daily routine, including specific writing hours and exercise, to free up mental capacity for his creative work. Understanding decision fatigue can help us structure our lives more effectively. Prioritizing important decisions earlier in the day or setting up routines to minimize unnecessary choices are strategies to preserve mental energy. By managing our mental resources wisely, we can make sound decisions and reduce the stress associated with overwhelming choices. 13. What leads to decision fatigue according to the text? A. The lack of time to make decisions. B. The difficulty of making logical choices. C. The stress from making important decisions. D. The limited mental energy for decision-making. 14. What does the study on parole hearings reveal? A. Judges are much stricter after long breaks. B. Decision fatigue can lead to unfair outcomes. C. Fatigue causes judges to avoid complicated cases. D. External factors have no impact on decision-making. 15. What does the author suggest readers shopping online do? A. Make quick decisions. B. Compare different products. C. Limit the number of choices. D. Choose the most popular products. 16. What is the purpose of adopting routines? A. To reduce the stress of daily work. B. To increase decision-making quality. C. To enhance overall life satisfaction. D. To create more decision-making chances. 【答案】13. D 14. B 15. C 16. B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了决策疲劳这一心理学现象，即长时间做决策导致决策质量下降，并探讨了其原因、影响及应对策略。 13. 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“It is caused by the limited mental energy we have for making choices each day.(它是由我们每天做选择的有限的精神能量造成的。)”可知，决策疲劳是由有限的决策精力导致的。故选D。 14. 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Researchers found that judges were more likely to approve of parole early in the day or after a meal break. As the day progressed and the judges made more decisions, they were increasingly likely to maintain their previous decisions, denying parole simply because it required less mental effort.(研究人员发现，法官更有可能在当天早些时候或用餐休息后批准假释。随着时间的推移，法官们做出了更多的决定，他们越来越有可能维持之前的决定，拒绝假释只是因为这需要更少的脑力劳动。)”可知，随着法官做出的决定越来越多，他们因为决策疲劳而倾向于维持之前的决定，这可能导致不公平的假释结果。由此可推知，关于假释听证会的研究揭示了决策疲劳可能导致不公平的结果。故选 B。 15. 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Similarly, too many choices, such as when looking through streaming platforms or online stores, can leave individuals feeling confused, leading them to abandon the process entirely or settle for a less satisfying option.(同样，太多的选择，比如通过流媒体平台或在线商店，会让个人感到困惑，导致他们完全放弃这个过程，或者满足于一个不太令人满意的选择。)”可知，作者提到网购时太多的选择会让人困惑。由此可推知，作者建议限制选择的数量。故选C。 16. 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Prioritizing important decisions earlier in the day or setting up routines to minimize unnecessary choices are strategies to preserve mental energy.(在一天的早些时候优先考虑重要的决定，或者建立日常生活，以尽量减少不必要的选择，这些都是保持精神能量的策略。)”可知，制定常规流程的目的是保存精神能量，从而提高决策质量。故选B。 E "Regrets, I've had a few. But then again, too few to mention,” Frank Sinatra chanted in his 1969 hit "My Way”. The song's idea is attractive: that anyone can just declare what's done is done and move on. Some take the declaration a step further and claim they have no regrets at all. Whether a boast or an actual attitude, "no regrets” suggests that life can and should be lived without looking through the rear-view mirror. Easier said than done, though.Author Daniel H. Pink launched the World Regret Survey, the largest ever survey on the topic. With his research team, Pink asked more than 15,000 people in 105 countries, "How often do you look back on your life and wish you had done things differently?” 82% said regret is at least an occasional part of their life; roughly 21% said they feel regret "all the time.” Only 1% said they never feel regret. If you are of the "no regrets” type, you might think that all this regret is a recipe for unhappiness. But that isn't the case. True, being overwhelmed by regret is indeed bad for you. But going to the other extreme may be even worse. To rid yourself of regrets doesn't free you from shame or sorrow; it leads you to make the same mistakes again and again. To truly get over our guilt requires that we put regret in its proper place. As uncomfortable as it is, regret is an amazing cognitive(认知) achievement. If today your relationship with your partner has soured, your regret might mentally take you back to last year. You would remember your being mean and sensitive, and then imagine yourself showing more patience, being kind instead of hurtful at key moments. Then you would fast-forward to today and see how your relationship could be progressing instead of languishing. But regret doesn't have to be left unmanaged. The trick is to acknowledge it and use it for learning and improvement. You can be honest with yourself about what went wrong and use that knowledge to enjoy better relationships in the future. 17. What should we do if we have had a bitter quarrel with a close friend according to Frank Sinatra? A. Attract more people to your argument. B. Send him/her a letter of apology. C. Boast about being more reasonable. D. Forget about it and just let it go. 18. Why did the author mention the World Regret Survey? A. To introduce the work of author Daniel H. Pink. B. To provide statistical evidence that regret is widespread. C. To show that the "no regrets” attitude is rare and unrealistic. D. To compare different people's attitudes towards regret. 19. What does the underlined word "languishing” in paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Improving. B. Healing. C. Showing up. D. Breaking up. 20. What does the author intend to tell us in this passage? A. "No regrets” is a realistic and healthy attitude towards life. B. It is better to feel overwhelming regret than to feel none at all. C. Regret can be beneficial if people know how to handle it properly. D. It is impossible and unwise for people to live a life without any regrets. 【答案】17. D 18. C 19. D 20. C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。生活中会有很多遗憾。太多遗憾会影响生活，但是没有遗憾的生活也不完整，我们应该从中吸取教训，继续前行，让自己的人生更成功。文章主要论述了对待遗憾的正确态度及其作用。 17. 推理判断题。根据第一段“The song’s idea is attractive: that anyone can just declare what’s done is done and move on. Some take the declaration a step further and claim they have no regrets at all.(这首歌传达的理念颇具吸引力：任何人都可以宣称过往已成定局，然后继续前行。有些人更进一步，声称自己毫无遗憾)”可知，根据Frank Sinatra的观点，在与朋友争吵后，我们会忘了它，随它去。故选D项。 18. 推理判断题。根据第二段“Easier said than done, though.Author Daniel H. Pink launched the World Regret Survey, the largest ever survey on the topic. With his research team, Pink asked more than 15,000 people in 105 countries, “How often do you look back on your life and wish you had done things differently?” 82% said regret is at least an occasional part of their life; roughly 21% said they feel regret “all the time.” Only 1% said they never feel regret.(不过，这说起来容易做起来难。作家丹尼尔·H·平克(Daniel H. Pink)发起了“世界遗憾调查”，这是有史以来规模最大的关于遗憾的调查。平克和他的研究团队询问了来自105个国家的15000多人：“你回顾自己的人生时，有多经常希望自己当初的做法有所不同？”82%的人表示，遗憾至少偶尔会出现在他们的生活中；约21%的人表示，他们“一直”都感到遗憾。只有1%的人表示从未感到过遗憾)”可知，作者提到世界遗憾调查是为了通过详细数据表明“无悔”的态度是罕见的和不现实的。故选C项。 19. 词句猜测题。由文章第四段中“If today your relationship with your partner has soured, your regret might mentally take you back to last year. You would remember your being mean and sensitive, and then imagine yourself showing more patience, being kind instead of hurtful at key moments. Then you would fast-forward to today and see how your relationship could be progressing instead of languishing.(如果今天你和伴侣的关系恶化了，你的遗憾可能会在精神上把你带回到去年。你会记得自己既刻薄又敏感，然后想象自己在关键时刻表现出更多的耐心，变得善良而不是伤人。然后你会快进到今天，看看你们的关系是如何发展的，而不是languishing)”可知，instead of前后为转折关系，前文说关系需要有进展，而有进展的反面则是关系没有进展，进而结束关系，或者关系破裂，故推测languishing意为“关系结束，破裂”。与Breaking up“破裂”意思相符。故选D项。 20. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But regret doesn’t have to be left unmanaged. The trick is to acknowledge it and use it for learning and improvement. You can be honest with yourself about what went wrong and use that knowledge to enjoy better relationships in the future.(但遗憾并非无法管理。关键在于承认它，并利用它来学习和改进。你可以坦诚地面对自己哪里出了错，并利用这些知识在未来享受更好的人际关系)”可知，作者想在这篇文章中告诉我们如果人们知道如何正确处理后悔，它可能是有益的。故选C项。 二、完形填空(共15小题;每小题2分，满分30分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项ABC和D中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，。 While buzz-words(流行语) may give an interesting flavor to language, I personally find them annoying. They are like the showmen of the show whose performance you aren’t really there to see. They seem to say a lot without actually saying anything of 21 at all. Any word that leaves more questions than it answers without really giving any clues as to what it is truly about is not playing a fair game. They are like inside jokes that leave anyone who is 22 with their context completely clueless as to what is actually being said. Those who engage in a private, whispered conversation while amongst others are often considered 23 because they are actively being exclusionary. Now you know why I find buzzwords annoying. They can exclude and leave you 24 about specifics. “Your broadband issues will have to be routed to the plans grievance and redressal hub. We will escalate it and tag the troubleshooting executive for resolution.” When this sentence hit me, I was sitting at the customer care counter 25 about my Wi-Fi connection troubles at my home. I blinked with annoyance because there were too many words in that sentence that needed to be decoded. It was like a 26 language. I wish he could have simply told me that the complaints department would 27 the problem and that the manager would find a solution. While the language they used was perhaps how they might sometimes 28 with one another in their meetings, I personally had no use for it. This is the problem with buzzwords and jargon(行话). They take you for a long, blindfolded ride, only to spin you around till you are completely disoriented. I learnt the value of writing without jargon during my master’s thesis. My mentor was a professor whose book had the most crisp(简短干脆的), precise nonfiction, academic language I had ever 29 . Every sentence and concept was presented in direct, straightforward language. We all sat in awe while waiting for our first meeting with our much-respected professor. After 30 us, he picked up a piece of chalk and wrote a single word in the right-hand corner of the blackboard: jargon. He looked at us while marking out the word. “When you write, do not use jargon.” This first 31 in writing has continued to stay with me and has grown in value over time through my work with the written language. Words have nuances(细微差别), like the many shades of pink or blue that can be found in the blaze of a sunset, or like the light and dark, heavy and happy feelings that are left to linger after the final embers(余烬) of its light have faded away. The natural 32 of each word has to be given a chance to work its magic for you. Think of words as having individual 33 through which they like to express themselves. They don’t want some other 34 words to take the place of them. So, remove jargon and buzzwords, and you will have a(n) 35 conversation without smokescreens and guesswork. 21.

Strickland, an expert in school design and instructor at MIT in Boston, had been hired as a consultant to help Paterson find sites for new schools. The architect hatched a grand plan to help revitalize(复兴) Paterson’s schools and the city itself. Six career academies are holding classes at old sites. These small changes have not gone unnoticed. The city, as the residents expected, has the potential to shine. A nearly unoccupied three-story shopping mall houses two schools, one focused on medical careers, the other on media arts and urban planning. English and math teachers for the two schools lead classes in storefronts that were empty just a year ago. Across town, under the thick wooden beams(横梁) of an old textile factory and a train engine plant, students with disabilities will learn about careers with the region’s transportation systems. Strickland requires his graduate students at MIT to help Paterson construct models for new building projects in the city. Jane Riesman, one of Strickland’s students, has been working with her kids on an educational park that would replace a wasteland of lifeless asphalt(沥青) and grass that stretches between two downtown schools. The surrounding neighborhood is hardly inspiring; pulling-down of a high-rise housing project is underway, showering dust everywhere. But Riesman’s students envision a very different place. One of the student models includes a swimming pool, skating court, climbing wall, sandbox, and a pond with a fountain and lots of trees. “It’s fun, and it makes us feel like we’re in charge and helping the community,” says 15-year-old Marilyn Medina, one of the model’s creators. Strickland says it’s important for the students to dream. “They’re setting a tone for the town,” he says. “The kids can push the envelope and change the culture.” 5. What was Paterson like in the past according to Paragraph 1? A. It fell into severe disrepair. B. It rarely produced any iron. C. Its textile industry was well-known. D. Its schools were completely deserted. 6. What was the residents’ attitude towards Strickland’s plan? A. Opposed. B. Favorable. C. Dismissive. D. Uncaring. 7. What can we infer about Riesman’s students? A. Diligent and innocent. B. Funny and responsible. C. Honest and trustworthy. D. Imaginative and helpful. 8. What does the text focus on? A. Transforming old buildings to shine. B. Revitalizing the city’s shopping mall. C. Developing students’ logical thinking. D. Witnessing the rise and fall of Paterson. C AI technology has long been able to recognize patterns in music preferences and create personalized playlists. Now, a new AI system has taken this a step further by analyzing how people listen to music and identifying their unique “listening styles”. This advancement in the field of “audiometric” analysis could revolutionize how music streaming services tailor playlists to individual users, making them more personalized and enjoyable. However, there are also concerns that such systems could potentially track users’ listening habits in ways that compromise privacy. Music recommendation algorithms have been highly effective at suggesting new songs and artists. But Dr. Emily Carter, a music data scientist at the University of Music and Technology, notes that these algorithms often use a one-size-fits-all approach that doesn’t capture the nuances of individual listening behavior. To better understand and cater to individual preferences, researchers need to analyze each user’s unique listening patterns. To develop and train their AI, the researchers collected data from over 50 million listening sessions and fed it into a neural network. They tested the system by seeing how well it could distinguish between different users’ listening habits. The system was given 100 listening sessions from each of about 3,000 known users and 100 new sessions from an unknown user. The AI looked for the best match and identified the unknown user 86% of the time, according to a study presented at the International Conference on Music Information Retrieval(ISMIR). “We were quite surprised by the accuracy,” says Alex Johnson, a doctoral student in Carter’s lab and the lead author of the study. A non-AI method was only 28% accurate. “The work is really innovative,” says Dr. Sarah Kim, a music researcher. “Personalized music experiences could transform how we interact with music platforms.” The researchers are aware of the privacy implications of their system, which could potentially identify users based on their listening habits. In theory, similar systems could also analyze other behaviors, such as the types of podcasts people listen to or the timing of their music consumption. ISMIR organizers found the study technically impressive but ethically questionable, and accepted it on the condition that the researchers detail the privacy risks. Carter says they have decided, for now, not to release the software publicly. 9. What advance in AI technology is described in the article? A. It can recognize different human chess players. B. It can create personalized playlists based on unique listening styles. C. It can identify different people’s handwriting. D. It can track people’s unacceptable online behavior. 10. Why is the new AI system considered innovative according to Dr. Sarah Kim? A. It can recognize patterns in music preferences more accurately than existing algorithms. B. It uses a one-size-fits-all approach to suggest new songs. C. It can analyze the types of podcasts people listen to. D. It can identify users based on their listening habits with high accuracy. 11. What is the main concern regarding the new AI system described in the article? A. Its ability to create highly personalized playlists. B. Its potential to compromise user privacy by tracking listening habits. C. Its limited accuracy compared to non-AI methods. D. Its inability to distinguish between different users’ listening habits. 12. What is the attitude of the ISMIR organizers toward the study on the new AI system? A. Favorable. B. Disappointed. C. Careful. D. Uninterested. D Decision fatigue(决策疲劳) is a psychological phenomenon where the quality of decisions declines after a long session of decision-making. It is caused by the limited mental energy we have for making choices each day. While many of us believe we are logical beings capable of weighing every option carefully, decision fatigue shows how our mental resources can be used up over time. One of the key studies on this phenomenon was conducted in the context of parole hearings(假释听证会). Researchers found that judges were more likely to approve of parole early in the day or after a meal break. As the day progressed and the judges made more decisions, they were increasingly likely to maintain their previous decisions, denying parole simply because it required less mental effort. Decision fatigue affects not only major life choices but also everyday decisions. For instance, people often report struggling to decide what to eat for dinner after a long day. Similarly, too many choices, such as when looking through streaming platforms or online stores, can leave individuals feeling confused, leading them to abandon the process entirely or settle for a less satisfying option. To overcome decision fatigue, some well-known figures have adopted strategies to simplify their daily routines. For example, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Albert Einstein was known for owning multiple identical suits to avoid wasting energy on deciding what to wear each day. In a different context, author Haruki Murakami has shared that he maintains a strict daily routine, including specific writing hours and exercise, to free up mental capacity for his creative work. Understanding decision fatigue can help us structure our lives more effectively. Prioritizing important decisions earlier in the day or setting up routines to minimize unnecessary choices are strategies to preserve mental energy. By managing our mental resources wisely, we can make sound decisions and reduce the stress associated with overwhelming choices. 13. What leads to decision fatigue according to the text? A. The lack of time to make decisions. B. The difficulty of making logical choices. C. The stress from making important decisions. D. The limited mental energy for decision-making. 14. What does the study on parole hearings reveal? A. Judges are much stricter after long breaks. B. Decision fatigue can lead to unfair outcomes. C. Fatigue causes judges to avoid complicated cases. D. External factors have no impact on decision-making. 15. What does the author suggest readers shopping online do? A. Make quick decisions. B. Compare different products. C. Limit the number of choices. D. Choose the most popular products. 16. What is the purpose of adopting routines? A. To reduce the stress of daily work. B. To increase decision-making quality. C. To enhance overall life satisfaction. D. To create more decision-making chances. E "Regrets, I've had a few. But then again, too few to mention,” Frank Sinatra chanted in his 1969 hit "My Way”. The song's idea is attractive: that anyone can just declare what's done is done and move on. Some take the declaration a step further and claim they have no regrets at all. Whether a boast or an actual attitude, "no regrets” suggests that life can and should be lived without looking through the rear-view mirror. Easier said than done, though.Author Daniel H. Pink launched the World Regret Survey, the largest ever survey on the topic. With his research team, Pink asked more than 15,000 people in 105 countries, "How often do you look back on your life and wish you had done things differently?” 82% said regret is at least an occasional part of their life; roughly 21% said they feel regret "all the time.” Only 1% said they never feel regret. If you are of the "no regrets” type, you might think that all this regret is a recipe for unhappiness. But that isn't the case. True, being overwhelmed by regret is indeed bad for you. But going to the other extreme may be even worse. To rid yourself of regrets doesn't free you from shame or sorrow; it leads you to make the same mistakes again and again. To truly get over our guilt requires that we put regret in its proper place. As uncomfortable as it is, regret is an amazing cognitive(认知) achievement. If today your relationship with your partner has soured, your regret might mentally take you back to last year. You would remember your being mean and sensitive, and then imagine yourself showing more patience, being kind instead of hurtful at key moments. Then you would fast-forward to today and see how your relationship could be progressing instead of languishing. But regret doesn't have to be left unmanaged. The trick is to acknowledge it and use it for learning and improvement. You can be honest with yourself about what went wrong and use that knowledge to enjoy better relationships in the future. 17.

They are like the showmen of the show whose performance you aren’t really there to see. They seem to say a lot without actually saying anything of 21 at all. Any word that leaves more questions than it answers without really giving any clues as to what it is truly about is not playing a fair game. They are like inside jokes that leave anyone who is 22 with their context completely clueless as to what is actually being said. Those who engage in a private, whispered conversation while amongst others are often considered 23 because they are actively being exclusionary. Now you know why I find buzzwords annoying. They can exclude and leave you 24 about specifics. “Your broadband issues will have to be routed to the plans grievance and redressal hub. We will escalate it and tag the troubleshooting executive for resolution.” When this sentence hit me, I was sitting at the customer care counter 25 about my Wi-Fi connection troubles at my home. I blinked with annoyance because there were too many words in that sentence that needed to be decoded. It was like a 26 language. I wish he could have simply told me that the complaints department would 27 the problem and that the manager would find a solution. While the language they used was perhaps how they might sometimes 28 with one another in their meetings, I personally had no use for it. This is the problem with buzzwords and jargon(行话). They take you for a long, blindfolded ride, only to spin you around till you are completely disoriented. I learnt the value of writing without jargon during my master’s thesis. My mentor was a professor whose book had the most crisp(简短干脆的), precise nonfiction, academic language I had ever 29 . Every sentence and concept was presented in direct, straightforward language. We all sat in awe while waiting for our first meeting with our much-respected professor. After 30 us, he picked up a piece of chalk and wrote a single word in the right-hand corner of the blackboard: jargon. He looked at us while marking out the word. “When you write, do not use jargon.” This first 31 in writing has continued to stay with me and has grown in value over time through my work with the written language. Words have nuances(细微差别), like the many shades of pink or blue that can be found in the blaze of a sunset, or like the light and dark, heavy and happy feelings that are left to linger after the final embers(余烬) of its light have faded away. The natural 32 of each word has to be given a chance to work its magic for you. Think of words as having individual 33 through which they like to express themselves. They don’t want some other 34 words to take the place of them. So, remove jargon and buzzwords, and you will have a(n) 35 conversation without smokescreens and guesswork. 21.
