This past July was the hottest recorded month in human history.Heat waves smashed temperature records
worldwide and even brought summer temperatures to Chile and Argentina during the Southem Hemisphere's
winter.It's more than just a matter of sweaty discomfort.In the U.S.alone,it kills more people each year than
floods,tornadoes and hurricanes combined.As climate change worsens,access to 31 cooled spaces is
rapidly becoming a health necessity.
Yet standard air-conditioning systems have 3?us in a vicious cycle:the hotter it is,the more people
use the Ac-and the more energy is used as a result.Nicole Miranda,an engineer researching sustainable
cooling at the University of Oxford says:"it's not only a vicious cycle,but it's a(n)38 one."According to
2018 data from the Intemational Bnergy Agency (IEA),the worldwide annual energy demand from cooling is
to more than triple by 2050.
It's becoming increasingly clear that humans cannot outrun climate change with the same air-conditioning
technology we've been using.One well-known problem with currem AC systems is their reliance on refrigerant
many of which are potential greenhouse gases.About 80 percent or a standard Ac unit's
climate-warming emissions currently come from the energy used to 36ig;says Nihar Shah,director of the
Global Cooling Efficiency Program-at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
Standard air-conditioning systems cool and denumidify through a relatively inefficient mechanism:
in order to condense water out of the air,they overcool that air past the point of comfort.Many new designs
therefore separate the dehumidification and cooling processes,which avoids the need to overcool.
Even with some of the best technologies available,the gains in 38alone might not be egough to
offset the widely expected increase in air-conditioning use.It will not work to simply replace every air
conditioner with a better model and call it a day.Instead,a truly cooler future will have to 4.other
strategies that rely on urban planning and building design to minimize the need for cooling in the first place.

Experiencing occasional anxiety is a normal part of life.However anxiety disorders,defined by extreme
fear,restlessness,and muscle tension,can increase the risk for 41 fand self-murder.

disorders.To do this,we conducted a systematic of studies that reported on the proportion of people
with anxiety in a variety of contexts around the world,and used accurate methods to keep the highest quality
studies./Our results showed women are almost twice as likely to anxiety as men,and people living
in Europe and North America are disproportionately affected.
So why are women more :It could be because of differences in brain chemistry and hormone
variations.Reproductive events across a woman's life are with normonal changes,which have been

Section B
Manufacturers of products that claim to be environmentally friendly will face tighter rules on how they are
advertised to consumers under changes proposed by the Federal Trade Commission.
The commission's revised"Green Guides"warn marketers against using labels that make broad claims,
like"eco-friendly".Marketers must qualify their claims on the product packaging and limit them to a specific
benefit,such as how much of the product is recycled.//"This is really about trying to cut through the
confusion that consumers have when they are buying a product and that husinesses have when they are selling a
product"said Jon Leibowitz,chairman of the commission.
The revisions come at a time when green marketing is on the rise.According to a new study,the number of
advertisements with green messages in mainstream magazines has risen since 1987,and peaked in 2008 at
10.4%.In 2009,the number dropped to 9%.
But while the number of advertisements may have dipped,there has been a rapid spread of eco-labeling.
There are both good and bad players in the eco-labeling game.
In the last five years or so,there has been an explosion of green claims and environmental claims.It is
clear that consumers don't always know what they are getting.
A handful of lawsuits have been filed in recent years against companies accused of using misleading
environmental labels.ln2008and2009,class--action lawsuits(集体诉讼)were filed against SC Johnson for
using"Greenlist"labels on its cleaning products.The lawsuits said that the label was misleading because it
gave the impression that the products had been certified by a third party when the certification was the
company's own.
"We will prevail in these cases,"Christopher Beard,director of public affairs for SC Johnson,said,while
acknowledging that"this has been an area that is difficult to navigate."
Companies have also taken it upon themselves to contest each other's green claims.
David Mallen,associate director of the Council of Better Business Bureau,said in the last two years the
organization had-seen an inerease-in the number of claims-companies were bringing against each other for false
or misleading environmental product claims.
"About once a week.I have a client that will bring up a new certification I've never even heard of and I'm
in this industry,"-said Kevin Withelm,chief executive officer of Sustainable Business Consulting."It's kind of a
Wild West.Anybody can claim themselves to be green."Mr.Wilhelm'said the excess of labels made it difficult
for businesses and consumers to know which labels they should pay attention to.
56.What do the revised "Green Guides"require businesses to do?
A.Manufacture as many green products as possible.B.Indicate whether their products are recyclable.
C.Specify in what way their products are green.D.Attach green labels to all of their products.
5.What does the author say about consumers facing an explosion of green claims?
A.They can easily see through the businesses'tricks.
B.They have to spend lots of time choosing products
C.They have doubt about current green certification.
D.They are not clear which products are truly green.
58.What does Kevin Wilhelm imply by saying"It's kind of a Wild West"(Lines 2-3,Para.11)?
A.Businesses compete to produce green products.
B.Each business acts its own way in green labeling.
C.
Consumers grow wild with products labeled green.
D.Anything produced in the West can be labeled green.
There was a time not long ago when new science Ph.D.s in the United States were expected to pursue a
career path in academia ()But today,most graduates end up working outside academia,not only in
industry but also in careers such as science policy,communications,and patent law.Partly this is a result of
how bleak the academic job market is,but there's also a rising awareness of career options that Ph.D.scientists
haven't trained for directly-but for which they have useful knowledge,skills,and experience.Still,there's a
huge disconnect between the way we currently train scientists and the actual employment opportunities
available for them,and an urgent need for dramatic improvements in training programs to help close the gap.
One critical step that could help to drive change would be to require Ph.D.students and postdoctoral scientists
to follow an individual development plan (IDP).
In 2002,the U.S.Federation of American Societies for Experimenta]Blolegy -recommended that every
postdoctoral researcher put together an IDP in consultation with an adviser:Smce then,several academic
institutions have begun to require IDPs for postdocs.And in June,the U.S.National Institutes of Health (NIH)
Biomedical Research Workforce Working Group recommended that the NIH require IDPs for the
approximately 32,000 postdoctoral researchers they support.Other funding agencies,public and private,are
moving in a similar direction.
IDPs have long been used by government agencies and the private sector to achieve specific goals for the
employee and the organization.The aim is to ensure that employees have an explicit tool to help them
understand their own abilities and aspirations,determine career possibilities,and set(usually short-term)goals.
In science,graduate students and new Ph.D.scientists can use an IDP to identify and navigate an effective
career path.
A free Web application for this purpose,called myIDP,has become available this week.It's designed to
guide early-career scientists through a confidential,rigorous process of infrospection (to create a
customized career plan.Guided by expert knowledge from a panel of science-focused career advisers,each
trainee's self-assessment is used to rank a set of career frajectories ()After the user has identified a
long-term career goal,myIDP walks her or him through the process of setting short-term goals directed toward
accumulating new skills and experiences important for that career choice.
Although surveys reveal the IDP process to be useful,trainees report a need for additional resources to
help them identify a long-term career path and complete an IDP.Thus,myIDP will be most effective when it's
embedded in larger career-development efforts.For example,universities could incorporate IDPs into their
graduate curricula to help students discuss,plan,prepare for,and achieve their long-term career goals.
59.What do we learn about new science in the United States Ph.D.s today?
A.They lack the skills and expertise needed for their jobs
B.They can choose from a wider range of well-paying jobs.
C.They often have to seek jobs outside the academic circle.
D.They are regarded as the nation's driving force of change.
60.What does the author say about America's Ph.D.training?
A.It includes a great varlety of practical courses.
B.It is closely linked to future career requirements.
C.It should be re-oriented to careers outside academia.
D.It should be improved to better suit the job market.
61.Govemment agencies and the private sector often use IDPs to.
A.bring into full play the expertise of their postdoctoral researchers
B.help employees capitalize on their abilities to achieve career goals
C.place employees in the most appropriate positions
D.recruit the most suitable candidates to work for them
62.What do me know about my IDP?
A.It is an effective tool for self-assessment for better career plans.
B.It enables people to look into various possibilities.
C.It is an integral part of the graduate curricula.D.It can promise a long-term career path.
What will the development of quantum computers(量子计算机)mean for our civilizations?Oh sure,
better cryptography(码方式),“more powerful'"'processing,but bottom line,we just don't know..yet
This phenomenon isn't unique to quantum computing,of course.It's something we see time and again
with all new world-changing technology.In some ways,it's how we can define a technology as world-changing:
everyone agrees it's going to be hugely important,but nobody can predict exactly what impact it will have.
The internet remains the classic example.Although invented in the 1960s,even by the late 1990s,the
internet was still being dismissed as something that is fashionable but unlikely to last.Most commentators
thought it nothing more than a curiosity.
There's a famous 1999 interview between David Bowie and BBC journalist Jeremy Paxman.In it,Bowie
predicts that the internet will change the nature of music,and remove the "barriers between creator and
audience".The longer he spoke,the more Paxman said in anger that Bowie could possibly believe this about
the internet./To be fair to Paxman,in 1999,internet at home meant accessing it over a modem.Concepts
like WeChat and Netflix and more simply could not work over such limited bandwidth.But there were still
some people who assumed that bandwidth would increase and that streaming music and video would be
possible soon enough.They were laughed at.
Oddly enough,as the dot-com boom intensified,many turned from doubters to hopeless optimists,and lost
serious money building websites to deliver content that simply couldn't"fit"down the inter-tubes of the day.
Then in the second decade of the 21st century:critical mass.Bandwidth increased massively.Forget
showing a nice little video in your browser,today Netflix can serve you a TV show in 4K,as long as you have
25Mbps connection.
Quantum computing isn't a consumer technology,of course.It's a much bigger deal than that.Quantum
computing is more like the invention of the transistor(电子晶体),Sure,most people have heard of it,but few
understand it.Actually,we don't even really understand it.But we're reasonably comfortable that when a lab
has that many scanning electron microscopes,it must be doing something important,right?
Quantum computing is still at the stage of "hit it witha hammer until it works".Sure the hammer is
microscopic,and also a laser or magnetic field of some kind,but the point is we're going through the process of
turning the idea into reality.
Sooner than you think,though,qubit-based computers are going to get applied to stuff.What stuff?Like
always,it will be super secret stuff first.Then it will reach the rest of us.

This is how the world begins.Not with a bang,but with a lot of extremely hard work bchind the scenes.
63 What attitude did most people take towards the internet in the 1990s?
A.Optimistic.B.Unconcerned.C.Doubtful.
D.Defensive.
64.The example of the internet is intended to illustrate that
A.it is hard to define what is world-changing technology
B.the internet was universally acknowledged as important
C.the influence of new technology is usually unpredictable
D.the internet inspired many debates in the following years
65.By"hit it with a hammer until it works",the writer means that quantum computing
A.has been questioned
B.has been fully understood
C.hasn't been heard of before
D.hasn't been applied to practice
66.What can be concluded about new technology from the passage?
A.Its development is a gradual process.
B.Most is the brainchild of a scientist.
C.Not all is accessible to the public.
D.Its future is often a top secret.
SectionC
A.You can see why people went mad over the concept:imagine having all the power of a smart phone
without actually needing a smart phone.
B.However,the futuristic technologies some moves depict have accidentally given rise to the possible and
practical inventions in the real world.
C.Since the Her ear picce has brought about many disc re et and comfortable benefits,it is more sensible
than goggle Glass.
D.Her,for example,is about a man who falls in love with his Sir i-like voice assistant,
B.On the other hand,some moves depict futuristic technologies that are so possible and practical that people
invent them in the real world.
F.The Her ear piece delivers many of the same benefits,though discreetly and comfortable.
How Well Do Films Predict Our teach Future?
Everyone judged the possibility of a movie through a different perspective.If you're a doctor,you may
think:"That character would not have survived that fall."If you're a scientist:"that's not how black holes work."
And if you're me,it's more like:"What a stupid concept of future personal technology!"
It makes me crazy when ski-fi moviemakers dream up stuff with no basis in science.Human teleporters?
Sorry,Stor Trek.A bed that detects and cures cancer in seconds?No,Elysium.
6Star Trek'sself-onening doors are now a standard feature of grocery stofe entranced,and the driver
less cars from Tofal Recall (and many other moves)are already on American roads.
Lately it's clear that Hollywood's production designers have been putting serious thought into the teach
we'll someday carry.He talks to her through a single ear bud,through which he gets a surprising amount
done:processing e-mail,browsing news stories,sending messages.When an image is essential to the
communication,he flips open his phone,where the picture appears.
This solution makes a lot of sense-more than,for example,Goggle Glass,a now discontinued head band
that placed a mini screen above your eyebrow.Social mistakes,not-technical ones,hastened its devise:Glass's
camera frightened others and made you look like a disgusting being.9
In a recent movie called What Happened to Monday,humans live in a dystopian future where,to control
overpopulation,it's illegal to have more than one child.The characters wear wrist bands containing tiny
projectors.They shine perfectly crisp,color images onto their palms,which the characters tap as though they
are touch screens.We won't see this in the real world,though.Even if a pick projector,battery and
process or could be shrunk and squeezed into a thin band,challenge remain.How would the projector attain
sharp focus on an irregular,moving palm?How would it project enough light on sunny days?How would it
work on very light or very dark skin?
Well,I suppose I should let that part go.They're just moves,right?They're not a depiction of the future
-at least not yet.

71.Directions:Read the following passage.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in
no more than 60 words.Use your own words as far as possible.
Will people reduce car use in 20 years?
Nowadays,the ownershin of cars is no longer being recognized as a symbel of one's wealth-and social
Dosition.Tracking back to the past when only the rich were qualified to possess private cars.we couldn't help
marveling at the historic change such a convenient invention brought to people's daily lives'Nevertheless,the
increase in the number of car owners is spelling-many negative effects.These rising problems also cause some
people to predict that the use of cars might be reduced in two decades.
Above all,the use of cars.remarkebly threatons our cavironment,if such a tendency is not brought under
control in time,the Earth will no longer be a suitable place for humans to survive in the future.People have to
face the consequence.It is a reality from which no one is able to escape.Every day,thousands of private cars
are emitting tons of exhausted gas that seriously pollutes the air.The carbon dioxide leads to the worldwide
greenhouse effect,which causes the sea level to rise and produces negative impacts on weather.In addition,
more energy is being wasted because of the production of private cars.In order to build a resource-conserving
and environment-friendly society,people ought to reduce the use of cars.
In fact,diversified measures are being taken by the government to limit the use of cars.If such a tendency
continues,the effect will be shown in the near future.For example,to reach the goal of building a safe and
harmonious society,Beijing Traffic Management Bureau has restricted regional traffic in rush hours on working
days.A number of private cars are prohibited on no-driving-days.
Last,the advancement of public transportation systems also helps change car owners'way of travelling.
Efforts are being made to construct more agreeable networks of buses,subways,trains and airplanes.In the
meanwhile,advances in technology might help cut down the cost of travelling in public vehicles.
