(E-Town)will be hosting an interesting running event for both humans and human-like robots.12,000
people are expected to take part in the event alongside dozens of bipedal robots developed by major robotics
companies,making this one of the strangest half marathons in history..”可知,北京半马的特点是“人类与机
器人同场竞技”。
25.B细节理解题。根据第三段“The robots'speeds reportedly range from8tol2km/h,whereas finishing a
2l.1-kilometer half-marathon in an hour and a half requires an average speed of 14km/h.”可知,对于双足机
器人而言,在半程马拉松比赛中面临的首要挑战是他们速度的限制。

技的半程马拉松赛事,并介绍了赛事规则、机器人面临的挑战以及相关背景。可知,C选项最符合文章
标题。
【文章大意】本文主要讲述了哥伦比亚商学院教授Adam Galinsky在其著作Inspire中提出的激励员工的方法,
包括使用具体语言、反事实思维和自我反思等策略。
28.D推理判断题。根据第三段“Teams who were handed a statement with more visual language一to create

were given something more generic..”可推断,具体的指示能带来更好的创意成果。
英语(三)参考答案第2页(共4页)
29,A词义猜测题。根据第四段“whether because they concluded fate had played a part in it or because it
forced them to think through its consequences more clearly..”可知,这组人因为某些原因,认为所讨论的事件
有更重大的意义,所以这里“ascribed'”意思是“归因于,认为…具有”,与“owed”意思相近。
30.C细节理解题。根据第五段“This type of counterfactual thinking can also be used to strengthen
employees'ties to firms;motivating people to imagine a world in which their company does not exist seems
to increase a sense of attachment.”可知,这种反事实思维对员工的影响是增加他们的归属感
31.B推理判断题。根据第六段可知,提到瑞士公民通过反思对自己重要的价值观(即自我激励),找到工作的

read”可知,研究人员通过自动化设备、软件程序和射频标签等人造工具监测鸟类行为。
33.B推理判断题。由第三段“‘But once a bird starts to eat them,they become unavailable two hours later.,
The experiments showed that when birds came back to the feeders more than two hours later,they directly
went to the peanuts,.even though those are not their favorite food.”可知,研究中鸟把葵花籽吃完了,两小时
后鸟就会吃不喜欢吃的花生,进而推知,食物的可获得性会影响鸟类的选择。
34.B细节理解题。由第四段“Previous studies on episodic-like memory have involved bigger-brained bird
species.This study focuses on smaller-brained,more adaptable bird species that don't hide their food."
与之前的研究相比,这项研究的独特之处在于它研究脑容量较小的野生鸟类。
35.A推理判断题。由最后一段“The study also might suggest that humans leaving out food for garden birds
could be one factor contributing to the evolution of these memory traits.It is in the same way that birds have
evolved beak adaptations in response to increased reliance on garden feeders,researchers said..”可知,人类投
喂可能促进鸟类记忆特征的进化,类似鸟喙适应现象,可得出人类喂养会影响鸟类的进化
【文章大意】文章介绍了提升自我价值、学会拒绝、停止取悦他人等为自己挺身而出的方法。
36.B"For most people,it's pretty easy to stand up for someone else.It's not hard to say your friend
deserves a promotion at work or your mom should ask for a second opinion at the doctor.”以及下文“we
somehow have all kinds of painful stories about how it's selfish or unkind to advocate for our own needs."
知,上文说为别人挺身而出容易,下文说为自己的需求发声难且有不好的看法,前后形成转折。B项符合语
境,But表示转折,the tables are turned指情况反转,即从为别人发声转到为自己发声,有承上启下的作用。
37.F由上文“Enhance your self--worth.”以及下文“Let me explain.Where financial worth is about keeping
more money than you spend,self-worth is built in the same way,but instead of dollars,we're collecting and
keeping more self.”可知,这里在讲提升自我价值的方法,且下文用经济价值类比自我价值。F项符合语境,
To do it承接上文Enhance your self--worth,keep more value than you give away与下文keeping more money
than you spend和collecting and keeping more self相呼应,解释了提升自我价值的方式
38.G"The next time someone asks you for a favor or to join a committee,consider if you can afford to
say yes.”以及下文“Do you have an excess of these resources that you can give after you've already cared for
yourself?If you can't afford it,try something like 'That doesn't feel good to me'or 'That doesn't work
with my schedule'.”可知,这里在讲当别人请求帮忙时要考虑自己的情况,下文提到these resources,说明
空格处应提及相关资源。G项符合语境,Take into account承接上文consider,“finances,energy,health
and time”对应下文these resources,说明了考虑的具体方面。
39.A"It's easy to fall into this trap because you tend to get praised for this habit.But when you lay
more stress on what others may think of you,you are probably devaluing yourself.”可知,这里讲的是过于在
意别人看法的问题,这种行为是取悦他人的表现。A项符合语境,作为小标题,概括了该段落的主要内容,
即要停止这种取悦他人的行为。
40.E"But when you lay more stress on what others may think of you,you are probably devaluing
yourself.."以及下文“Then,you end up in a desperate cycle of performing for others and hoping to gain
woh.”可知,这里在讲过于在意别人看法会导致自我价值贬低,进而陷人一个不好的循环。E项符合语
境,As your self-worth drops承接上文devaluing yourself,your urge to please others rises引出下文
performing for others,说明了自我价值下降和取悦他人欲望上升之间的关系,以及由此导致的结果,有承上
启下的作用。
【文章大意】Oh在一家高档餐厅当服务员,在为一桌客人打开葡萄酒时,把软木塞子弄断了。一个好心的男子
帮助了她,为她化解了危机。
41.A根据下文“He took the wine'”可知客人点了酒。
42.D根据本句中的“she realized she had broken the cork-half was now..in her corkscrew,and the other
half in the bottle.”可知,她是要打开瓶子。

瓶子里。

的情景吓坏了。
英语(三)参考答案第3页(共4页)

46.A根据语境可知,这个男士俯身将手放在瓶子上
47.A根据本句中的“He took the wine,turned away from the table”可以推知,他拿起酒,转身离开桌子,是为
了不让别人看到。
48.C根据下文可知,这个男士试图拔出软木塞,但是并没有成功。
49.A根据上下文可以推知,这个男士没有拔出卡在瓶子里的软木塞,只能把剩余的一部分软木塞推到瓶
子里
5o.B根据上文“But by then,all he could do was to push the..of it into the bottle'”可知,现在的瓶子里有半
个软木塞漂浮着。
5l,C根据上句“He's going to want it replaced”和下句“It's going to come out of my income”可以推知,Och想
这个男子会要求她的经理换掉葡萄酒并将会从她的收入中扣除。
52.D根据上文“He's going to want it replaced.He's going to talk to my...It's going to come out of my
income”可知,这个男子的行为和Och的想象正好相反

54.C根据本句中的“he turned to his guests and he started pouring them wine”可以推知,现在的情况是一切
都很好。
55.C根据生活常识,服务员最有可能把一些菜汁或其他东西洒到衣服上
【文章大意】一支来自中国和埃及的考古学家团队正在一座有着4000年历史的埃及神庙北部一个更偏远的地
区一蒙图神庙进行挖掘清理工作。
56.quietly考查副词。这里用副词quietly修饰谓语部分are working。
57.was abandoned考查时态和语态。根据“Digging began about a century ago'”可知,时态为过去时;挖掘工作
应是“被放弃”,用被动语态
58.which考查定语从句。这里用which引导非限制性定语从句,修饰前面的The site of the temple。
59,deserted考查形容词。系动词remained后面跟形容词,过去分词deserted在这里作形容词,表示被动
意味。
60,in考查动词固定搭配。result in导致,取得,固定搭配
6l,settlement考查名词。这里human settlement指的是人类居住的地点。
62.dating考查非谓语动词。这里用现在分词短语形式dating back to around the 14 th century BC作伴随
状语。
63.a考查冠词。这里用不定冠词表示泛指,unique发音以辅音音素开头,因此用a。
64.to clean考查非谓语动词。这里用不定式短语to clean offerings作目的状语。
65.their考查代词。这里用形容词性物主代词their来修饰后面的continued exploration.
One possible version:
When it comes to choosing between key universities and remarkable majors during college applications,I
figure that the latter holds greater significance.
As far as I am concerned,an excellent major,tailored to one's talent and aspirations,furnishes in-depth
expertise and specialized skills,which are crucial for long-term career advancement.Admittedly,key universities
possess superior resources and reputations,yet a mismatched major might make such advantages shallow.On the
contrary,a distinguished major,even in a less famous institution,can train genuine capacity,enabling students
to stand out in their chosen fields.
Ultimately,it is professional power rather than institutional reputation that determines one's path in the
competitive job market.
One possible version:
To my grandson Harry,you are most likely reading this letter right now.You have respected your
grandmother and me.I told her to let you know of her last wish before she passed,and you reading this means
you've fulfilled it.For this,I am grateful.If you are reading this with Walter,I am happy that he had a change of
heart.We hope you use this house and everything in it to enjoy life with your families.Now,take this letter and
show it to my lawyer.There,you will find what you deserve.With love,Grandpa.
Harry couldn't believe his eyes.He read the letter several times before checking things in the box.In it
were family albums and a little box of jewelry that his grandparents owned.That same day,he decided to meet
with his grandparents'lawyer,handing him the letter."I know there will definitely be such a day,Harry.This is
a bank account about $300,000,"the lawyer admitted.Harry still decided to tell Walter and share the
inheritance with him.After learning all this,Walter cried regretfully.He followed Harry's advice and completely
rebuilt their grandmother's house together.

China's capital city of Beijing is all set to host an interesting half-marathon that will set
thousands of human runners against dozens of bipedale(双足行走的)robots developed by some
of the world's leading robotics companies.
This coming April,the Beijing Economic-Technological Development Area (E-Town)
will be hosting an interesting running event for both humans and human-like robots.12,000
people are expected to take part in the event alongside dozens of bipedal robots developed by
major robotics companies,making this one of the strangest half marathons in history.
Participating robots will need to have a human-inspired appearance,be between 0.5 and 2
meters tall (so no giant robots are allowed),and have the ability to run or at least walk on
two legs.The winners,whether humans or robots,will receive prize money depending on
their performance.
Do the robots have a chance to win against humans?Well,we'll have to wait until April
to find out,but experts say seasoned human runners still have an edge over bipedal robots.
The robots'speeds reportedly range from 8 to 12 km/h,whereas finishing a 21.1-kilometer
half-marathon in an hour and a half requires an average speed of 14 km/h.Plus,battery
autonomy is likely to be a major factor,as organizers have already announced that battery
swapping mid-race is allowed.
英语(三)第3页(共8页)
This won't be the first time robots compete in official running events.Last year,Laibo 2,
a quadruped(robot became the first robot to ever complete a full marathon on a single
charge.Sadly,it won't be able to take part in April's half-marathon,as the event is only open
to bipedal robots.
Recently,the humanoid robot "Tiangong"in Beijing cheered for the runners of the Yizhuang
Half Marathon and even crossed the finish line together with them.However,its brief appearance left
many people craving for more.In April,Tiangong will be at the starting line.

C.Beijing E-Town's Human-robot Running Challenge
D.Bipedal Robots to Compete in Beijing's Half-marathon
You do not have to search for long on a networking site for people at work to find
"inspirational"content.Much more practical insights can be found in a forthcoming book
called Inspire,by Adam Galinsky,an academic at the Columbia Business School.
Lots of firms use a series of boringly abstract words to convey their goal,such as
“change*”,“innovate'”,“connect”and so on..The result is less a mission than a mood board.
Professor Galinsky cites an experiment that showed the effect of more concrete language.In it,
teams were asked to design toys and given a vision statement to guide their behaviour.
Teams who were handed a statement with more visual language-to create toys that make
wide-eyed kids laugh and proud parents smile-produced more engaging toys than teams who
were given something more generic(通用的).
Galinsky also points to the power of counterfactual(反事实的)thinking to inspire a sense
of meaning.Participants were asked to reflect on important events in their lives,such as their
choice of college.Some were also asked to think about how things would have turned out if
this event had not taken place.This group ascribed greater meaning to the event in question,
whether because they concluded fate had played a part in it or because it forced them to think
through its consequences more clearly.
This type of counterfactual thinking can also be used to strengthen employees'ties to
firms;motivating people to imagine a world in which their company does not exist seems to
increase a sense of attachment.
Perhaps the most striking idea in Galinsky's book is that,instead of bosses motivating
people from above,individuals can do it for themselves.One example is a piece of research.In
this research some Swiss citizens who had newly registered with a government employment
agency were asked to undertake a 10-to 15-minute exercise in which they reflected on values
that mattered to them.They were three times more likely to find a job than those who did not
do the exercise.
Inspiration can be bottom-up and top-down.Don't just tell your team what inspirational
figures said.Ask why their jobs matter to them.

Small wild birds have an ability to recall what they ate,where they found it and when,a
new study has shown.Researchers at the University of Cambridge and the University of East
Anglia in the UK studied the feeding habits of blue tits()and great tits.
In the experiments,researchers set up automated food containers and a software program
that created unique experiences for individual birds and tracked their behavior.The birds were
fitted with radio frequency tracking tags on their legs.When they landed on the feeder's special
stand,their tag was read,and food was either released or not through an electronic door.
Feeders were loaded with sunflower seeds,which the birds prefer-and peanut pieces-a food
less favored.Both of them ran out in the experiments and were refilled at different rates.
"All else being equal,birds prefer to eat sunflower seeds,"said researcher Gabrielle
Davidson."But once a bird starts to eat them,they become unavailable two hours later."The
experiments showed that when birds came back to the feeders more than two hours later,they
directly went to the peanuts,even though those are not their favorite food.These findings
provide the first evidence for episodic-like()memory in the wild and show that these
birds are more intelligent than they've been given credit for.
Previous studies on episodic-like memory have involved bigger-brained bird species.This
study focuses on smaller-brained,more adaptable bird species that don't hide their food."The
birds were behaving naturally in a familiar environment,so we captured something more
realistic than if they had been captive(被圈养的),”Davidson added.
The study also might suggest that humans leaving out food for garden birds could be one
factor contributing to the evolution of these memory traits.It is in the same way that birds
have evolved beak adaptations in response to increased reliance on garden feeders,researchers
said.
32.How did the researchers obtain the experimental results?
A.By observing wild birds'natural behavior.
B.By trapping the birds when they look for food.
C.By using man-made tools to monitor the birds.
D.By changing food and recording birds'responses.

33.What can we learn from Gabrielle Davidson's remarks?
A.Birds'food preferences are unchangeable.
B.The availability of food affects birds'choices.
C.Captive birds have memory of food availability.
D.Sunflower seeds are always accessible to birds.
34.What makes the study unique compared to previous research?
A.Observing birds in artificial environments.
B.Studying wild birds with lesser brain capacity.
C.Focusing on birds without food-storing habits.
D.Proving birds use instinct rather than memory.
35.What can be concluded from the last paragraph?
A.Human feeding affects bird evolution.
B.Birds'memory is unrelated to their food choice.
C.Most birds have episodic-like memory.
D.Birds'adaptive evolution is limited to physical traits.

How to Stand Up for Yourself
For most people,it's pretty easy to stand up for someone else.It's not hard to say your
friend deserves a promotion at work or your mom should ask for a second opinion at the
doctor.36,we somehow have all kinds of painful stories about how it's selfish or unkind
to advocate for our own needs.So how do you go from being everyone else's advocate to
learning to stand up for yourself?Below are several applicable steps you can take.
Enhance your self-worth.37.Let me explain.Where financial worth is about keeping
more money than you spend,self-worth is built in the same way,but instead of dollars,we're
collecting and keeping more self.
Get comfortable saying no.The next time someone asks you for a favor or to join a
committee,consider if you can afford to say yes.38.Do you have an excess of these
resources that you can give after you've already cared for yourself?If you can't afford it,try
something like“That doesn't feel good to me'”or“That doesn't work with my schedule'”.
39.It's easy to fall into this trap because you tend to get praised for this habit.But
when you lay more stress on what others may think of you,you are probably devaluing
yourself.40.Then,you end up in a desperate cycle of performing for others and hoping to
gain worth.To break this habit,instead of relying on niceness and agreeableness,start
leaning toward the courage to not be liked all the time and the strength to endure rejection.
A.Stop people-pleasing
B.But when the tables are turned
C.Though satisfying others'needs pleases us more
D.You'd better break the boundaries to gain self-worth
E.As your self-worth drops,your urge to please others rises
F.To do it,you actually have to keep more value than you give away
G.Take into account what it will cost you in terms of finances,energy,health and time

Harry and his brother Walter were called to the lawyer's office after their grandmother
passed away.Walter was excited,as he knew it would be about their grandmother's
inheritance.
Harry and Walter were very different.Instead of relying on their family's riches,Harry
chose to strike out on his own and work hard for what he had.Meanwhile,Walter always had
his eyes on the prize.When his parents died,he knew that staying close to his grandparents
would one day get him the inheritance he believed he deserved.
On her deathbed,their grandmother made one request:"My dear grandsons,your late
grandfather built this house for me when we were just starting out.All I ask is that you
rebuild it in memory of him."
"Your grandmother leaves her house to both of you,the lawyer told them.Walter was
silent for a while,waiting for him to say more.When he didn't,he decided to speak.
“What else?”Walter asked.
"Nothing else.That is all that is in her will,the lawyer told him.
"What?!That can't be!What about all her money?Her jewelry?I know she had a lot!"
he screamed.
"We have already searched the house for any valuables,and none were found.She had
already closed her bank account before she died.This is all she had left,"the lawyer
explained.
"I don't want anything to do with that house.Do with it as you please,"Walter told
Harry before driving away.
Harry wanted to fulfill his grandmother's wish and decided to use his savings and borrow
additional funding from his wealthy friend to rebuild his grandmother's house.
While rebuilding it himself,he was fixing the wastewater system in the front lawn when
he noticed a wooden box with a letter inside.Harry's grandfather had written the letter before
he passed away,and it read:
