"ARE WE ALONE in the universe?"This question is posed by Meenakshi Wadhwa,a
planetary scientist linked to NASA,to her engaged class at Arizona State University.In this lecture
hall,the presence of hearing aids signals something unique-many of the students are senior
citizens
Mirabella,a 20-storey "university retirement community"on ASU's campus,is home to over
300 retired people.Since its opening in 2020 during the pandemic,it has been highly popular.The
residents herc are having a wonderful time.They hold university passes,which enable them to
participate in classes and cultural events just like regular students,yet without the burden of exams.
Golf buggies are available for transportation,though many are fit enough for mountain biking.
This is a growing trend.Around 85 colleges in America are affiliated with some form of senior
living,a concept that emerged in the 1980s.Today,universities from Central Florida to Iowa State to
Stanford offer senior-living arrangements.Andrew Carle,at Georgetown University,estimates that as
many as 20,000'older Americans live like this.With more than 10,000 baby-boomers in America
turning 65 every day,the opportunity for alternative forms of retirement is large.
For universities,welcoming the retired can make sense too.Many face an "enrolment cliff',
caused partly by demographic (shifts.Nationally,undergraduate enrolment dropped from
over 18m in 2010 to below 16m in 2022.Mr Carle regularly consults with universities who wonder
what to do with the extra space.The smartest ones,he says,provide a series of care even for the very
last stage of life."The charity is the icing on the cake,"he says of the potential that residents will
include universities in their wills.
Bill Gates-not that one,but an 80-year-old former newspaper editor-moved to Mirabella
with his wife,who has a PhD in chemistry,two years ago.They have made friends with both fellow
residents and younger students."Being among young people is really uplifting,"says Mr Gates.At
"pizza and a slice of future",a discussion group about AI with pizza served halfway through,one of
试题第4页,共12页
the topics was whether a lifespan of 200 or 250 years would be desirable."The 20-year-olds were
enthusiastic,"he reflects,but those in their 70s and 80s "had some reservations",he chuckles.
24.What benefits do senior residents get from "university retirement community"?
A.They can teach courses.
B.They can get free medical care.
C.They can work part-time on campus.
D.They can enjoy campus resources and facilities.
25.What does the underlined expression"are affiliated with"in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.are ignorant of
B.are competent in
C.are associated with
D.are separated from
26.What can be inferred about the trend?
A.It is a sudden success.
B.It is a win-win situation.
C.It causes great anxiety for Carle.
D.It enables baby-boomers to retire later.
27.What does the discussion about lifespan imply?
A.Different views are likely to appear between two generations.
B.Long lifespan will be a common phenomenon soon.
C.Young people are more concerned about health issues.
D.AI has a great impact on people's view of lifespan.

Symbolic interactionism is a sociological perspective that examines how individuals use
symbols to communicate and create social reality.Founded by sociologists like George Herbert
Mead and Charles Horton Cooley,the theory focuses on micro-level interactions between individuals,
emphasizing the importance of symbols in these exchanges.Unlike other sociological perspectives
that focus on larger structures,symbolic interactionism looks at how individual actions shape social
structures through meaning-making processes.
It suggests that individuals act based on the meanings they attach to objects,people,and
situations.These meanings,in turn,are constructed and improved through social interactions.
试题第5页,共12页
Symbols,such as language,gestures,and objects,are central to this process,as they provide the
medium through which individuals understand and interpret the social world.
A symbol,in the context of symbolic interactionism,is anything that carries meaning beyond
its literal form.It could be a word,gesture,object,or even a social role.Symbols are not naturally
meaningful;rather,their meanings are socially constructed and learned through interaction.For
example,a handshake is not just a physical act but a symbol of greeting,agreement,or friendship in
many cultures.Compared with saying hello,shaking hands has more unexpected effects.
Symbols are essential for human communication and interaction.They allow individuals to
convey complex ideas,emotions,and intentions in a way that is understood by others.Language,for
instance,is a system of symbols that allows people to communicate abstract concepts like love,
justice,and freedom.Without symbols,human interaction would be limited to immediate,visible
experiences.
One of the most important ways symbols function in social interaction is through the
construction of identity.Individuals employ symbols to express who they are and how they relate to
the world around them.The clothes one wears are symbols,which signal one's profession,social
status,or even personal beliefs and preferences.For example,a doctor's white coat symbolizes
medical authority,while a business suit might symbolize professionalism.So have you got the magic
of symbols?
28.What's the function of paragraph 1?
A.To explain how to relate to others.
B.To define symbolic interactionism.
C.To tell how symbolic interactionism formed.
D.To compare varied sociological perspectives.
29.What does the author imply about symbols?
A.They indicate how humans feel.
B.Their meanings remain the same.
C.Their forms are created by humans.
D.They strengthen what words convey.
30.What's the main idea of paragraph 4?
A.The limits of human interaction.
B.The disadvantage of lack of symbols.
C.The role of symbols in social interaction.D.The function of languages in communication.
试题第6页,共12页
31.Which conduct can reveal the identity of symbols'users?
A.A rich employer lights a cigarette.
B.Policemen gesture to direct traffic.
C.Students paint on school uniform.
D.A doctor raises money for patients.
D
Polymetallic nodules(多金属结核)on the deep-ocean seafloor contain minerals like cobalt
and nickel,which mining companies hope to harvest for green-energy batteries and technologies.
However,a recent study suggests these prized,potato-sized rocks may also serve as a source of
oxygen for the bacteria and other microorganisms living there.
Jeffrey Marlow,one of the authors of the study,said researchers planted some watertight
structures on the ocean floor,which were equipped with instruments to measure the property and
composition of living things and their probable usage of oxygen.Researchers measured the oxygen
loss over a 48-hour period while the structure was sealed on the seafloor.Typically,a decline in
oxygen is an indicator for biological abundance because breathing organisms consume it.Yet,
contrary to all expectations,they observed a rise in oxygen levels,a finding that directly challenged
conventional understanding
But not everyone is on the same wavelength as him.Canada's The Metals Co(TMC)stated the
study had been rejected by four scientific publications until finding a home at Narure,which the
company labeled as"a journal that has long championed the preservation of deep-sea mineral."TMC
also said the method was wrong,arguing the team's findings contradicted other work that had been
conducted in the Pacific Ocean's Clarion-Clipperton Zone(CCZ)."The heightened oxygen levels are
in fact erroneous in the data,and we are currently preparing a peer-reviewed paper as a fightback,"
said the company.
Bo Barker,a microbiologist at Denmark's Aarhus University,said the study invited more
questions than it did answers.He described it as a"novel but very confusing process for which the
mechanism is still not clear."
For years,companies such as Canada's TMC have been battling to persuade the international
governing authority to green-light their plans to obtain these rocks in the Pacific Ocean's CCZ.The
company has argued that the metals are essential for fossil fuel-free technologies and that the impact
mining will have on the ocean floor is not only minimal,but also fades next to the destruction of rain
forests and human communities caused by land-based mining

According to a 2024 attention study by King's College London,49%of the UK public are
experiencing "popcorn (brain",a mental state featuring divided attention and wandering
thoughts.36 In response to the findings,psychologist Tina Chummun gives her top tips.
Adopt the mind map method.To manage a distracted mind,write down everything,
like appointments,worries and to-dos,without organizing it initially.Once everything is on paper,
group these into life areas like work or emotional wellbeing.37
This creates order and
gives your brain permission to concentrate.
Every time you feel your thoughts wandering,give yourself three seconds-breathe in,name
what you're feeling,and redirect your focus.38By doing so,you may turn down the heat
when your brain is working overtime.
Minimizing tech is also the key to getting back on track in your daily life.A full digital
withdrawal is unrealistic.39 Then it could be followed by a five-minute screen time
reward.It teaches your brain to tolerate stillness without feeling punished.
40 At first,you may feel bored,as popcomn brain likes being 'gogo go'to feel safe.
"Go for a walk without music,or simply stare out your window,"suggests Tina."Sit in silence and
observe your thoughts.Let your brain breathe.It is sometimes exactly what your nervous system
needs."
So,are you ready to quiet the mental popcomn and get your focus back?
试题第8页,共12页
A.Allow space in your day for doing nothing.
B.So,what's making our brains pop like popcomn?
C.Instead,go totally screen-free for 25-30 minutes
D.Starving distractions and feeding focus is a nice idea.
E.Then ask yourself:what matters now and what can wait?
F.They feel their attention less focused and deep thinking rarer.
G.This practice enables you to slow down and manage emotions.
