When you're a teacher,a big part of your job is battling student misconceptions.Often
students come to the classroom believing that learning can't be fun and that what they learn
isn't relevant to the real world-much less to their personal interests.I've discovered that if I
show students how what they learn is relevant to my hobbies,they're much more willing to
make connections to their personal interests and develop their own hobbies.
No matter what subject I'm teaching,I find ways to bring my hobbies into the classroom.
For example,I'm a car enthusiast,so when I teach physics,I contextualize concepts with my
knowledge about cars.If we're covering friction,for example,I bring different tires (into
my classroom so that my students can conduct lab experiments with them to see how friction
works in real-life applications.
When I first brought my hobbies to my classroom,I was focused on how doing so would
build engagement and help my students understand concepts in science.But I quickly leared
that the practice also helped me build stronger relationships with them.When I let them seean
aspect of my life outside of schoo,ome students who were ao interested in carscond
with me more and became more engaged in my courses.Even those who didn't share that
interest with me seemed more engaged once I showed a different side of myself.
What started as an experiment is now more of a philosophy.Even when I'm planning
classes,I tend to think about how I can bring in my hobbies.I find that doing so energizes my
instruction,engages my students,and demonstrates tothem how abstract concepts play out in
the real world.Best of all,my passion for my hobbies seems to inspire them to be passionte

Human beings have always loved reviews:word of mouth has long been regarded as one
of the most valuable marketing tools available to a company.Consumers enjoy reading and
giving reviews.However,the problem is that a lot of the reviews are fake )Shabnam
Azimi and Alexander Krasnikov of Loyola University of Chicago and Kwong Chan of
Northeastern University recently published a study on fake reviews.
HN1
The study used a dataset of 1,600reviews of Chicago hotels.Some of them were real;
others were fake.The reviews were presented to 400 subjects.Each subject got eight reviews to
read:a balanced set of two positive fake,two positive real,two negative fake and two negative
real,presented in a random order.The reviews were written by real people who were given
information about the hotel.
The results show that consumers generally trust negative reviews more than positive ones.
Moreover,we humans tend to assume that positive reviews might be fake."Overall,negative
reviews are less common.So,we pay more attention to them.When a negative review is fake,
we get tricked,"Azimi says.
When it came to faking a review,length was important to believability,as was detail.A
long,negative review of a hotel,complete with lots of information,tended to convince
participants.A lengthy,positive review,on the other hand,was regarded as suspicious,and
participants tended to trust writers that kept their glowing reviews short.Emotion was also
important in convincing readers-or the lack of emotion,at least.Azimi says study
participants tended not to trust reviews where the writers expressed their feelings in a big way.
The more dispassionate that negative write-up,the more likely it was to take the reader in.
The fake reviews written for Azimi's study were put together by humans,but increasingly,
fake reviews are being written by AI,which makes them look more real.Though many
companies use algorithms (to weed out fake reviews,Azimi points out that the machines
are programmed by humans,and given our limited ability to spot fake reviews,this isn't a good
sign.
28.Which aspect of the study does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A.Its design.
B.Its findings.
C.Its purposes.
D.Its significance.
29.What does the underlined word"glowing"in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Funny.
B.Abusive.
C.Insightful.
D.Praising.

30.What kind of review would readers most likely trust?
A.A long,positive one.
B.An unemotional,negative one

C.A short,negative one.
D.An enthusiastic,positive one.
31.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Many companies are producing fake reviews.
B.Writing fake reviews will be declared illegal.
C.Machines can detect fake reviews accurately.

D.It will be harder to recognize fake reviews.

Carbon removal is crucial for fighting climate change.Scientists at Salk Institute are
makinguse of the natural capacity of plants to absorb carbon dioxide by enhancing theiro
systems.This optimization()aims to increase the amount of carbon stored and xtendthe
duration of its storage.
To design these climate-saving plants,the scientists are using a research tool called
SLEAP-an AI software that tracks multiple features of root growth.Created by Salk Fellow
Talmo Pereira,SLEAP was initially designed to track animal movement in the lab.Now,
Pereira has teamed up with plant scientist Professor Wolfgang Busch to apply SLEAP to plants.
In a study published in Plant Phenomics,Busch and Pereira establish a new procedure for
using SLEAP toanalyze plant root phenotypeshow deep and wide they grow,how massive
their root systems become,and other physical qualities.Prior to SLEAP,tracking the physical
characteristics of both plants and animals required a lot of labor that slowed the scientific
process.SLEAP uses computer vision (the ability for computers to understand images)and
deep learning(an AI approach for training a computer to learn and work like the human brain)
to help researchers process images much more quickly.
The application of SLEAP to plants has already enabled researchers to establish the most
extensive catalog (of plant root phenotypes to date.What's more,tracking these physical
root system characteristics helps scientists find genes (associated with those
characteristics,as well as whether multiple root characteristics are determined by the same
genes or independently.This allows the Salk team to determine what genes are most beneficial
to their plant designs.
"Our cooperation is truly proof of what makes Salk science so special and impactful,"says
Pereira."We're not just 'borrowing'from different disciplines-we're really putting them on
equal footing in order to create something greater than the sum of its parts."
32.What do the scientists at Salk Institute hope to achieve?
A.Keeping more carbon in plants.
C.Enhancing biological diversity.
B.Optimizing the use of energy.
33.Why did Pereira create SLEAP?
D.Reducing carbon absorption.
A.To generate plant images.
C.To study climate patterns.
B.To conduct research on animals.
34.What will SLEAP help the scientists do?
D.To track features of root growth.
A.Pick out diseased plants in the forest.
B.Collect samples of plant root systems.
C.Identify genes for desirable plant roots
D.Preserve the genes of endangered plants.
35.What can be inferred from Pereira's words?
A.Academic disciplines are of equal importance.
B.Computer programming is a must for scientists.
C.Interdisciplinary approach promotes creativity.
D.Cooperation outweighs competition in research

第二节(满分25分)
It was a regular Saturday morning,just like any other.I was driving my nine-year-old
daughter,Emma to her weekly swimming lesson.Recently,Emma had started seeing me as a
true hero who could solve any problem fairly."You aways know what'srigh Dad,"she would
say.We were talking about her lass when I noticed a crowd up ahead and had to slow down.
People were gathered on the street,pointing and laughing.In the middle of it all was a
large brown and white cow.It looked completely lost and terrified.Some kids were shouting
nearby,which seemed to scare the animal even more.A strong feeling of anger rose inside me.
These people were treating the poor creature's fear as entertainment.
"Dad,that cow is scared."Emma said softly from the back seat."What would you do?
Her question was serious.She believed I would do the right thing."Well,"I said trying to
sound confident for her,"I would calm it down and help it find its way home."I explained that
I knew a lot about cows.I spent my childhood on a farm,and now I even worked at a beef
processing plant.I was sure my experience would impress Emma.After dropping off a very
impressed Emma,I turned my car around.I felt it was my duty to go back and help.
When I returned,the scene was worse.I learned from a shop owner that the cow had been
wandering for a while,knocking over a fruit stand and causing quite a bit of trouble.I took a
slow,careful step towards the animal,speaking in a gentle voice.However,instead of calming
down,the cow lowered its head and let out a threatening sound.It stared directly at me,full of
hostility.My confidence faded,replaced by a sudden fear.This was't going to be easy at all.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Just as I was about to turn and run,two police officers arrived on the scene.
After we managed to secure the cow to a tree,we began to discuss what to do with it.
