But there is power in reading slowly.Chinese-American author Yiyun Ei tells her students,"I don't want you to read 100 pages an hour.'I want you to read three pages an hour."That's the speed Li is happy to read at,even if she is rereading a familiar text.She said,"I want to savour a book,which means I give myself just 10 pages a day of any book to experience it.I am not a fast reader but I read more slowly than I used to.This is partly to savour every word." These words hit a nerve because I am a typical impatient reader,trying to finish a book as soon as I start. So,in an effort to follow Li's advice,I,a forty-year-old man,start with The Years by Annie Ernaux, and Alan Garner's Where Shall We Run To?I spend about 45 minutes most days with Ernaux,reading just 30 or so pages;less on Garner.This is probably still too fast but old habits die hard.I'm struck by how they seem to talk to each other,Garner's experience of growing up in Britain during the war agreeing with elements of Ernaux's rural French childhood. It is the same with my next Ernaux,I Remain in Darkness,which I read alongside Catherine Newman's We All Want Impossible Things.I stay longer in Newman'pain,whicn feels more like I shared her experience.Again,the books,although very different,feel as if they were part of a conversation. By now I'm two months into my experiment,and have slowed down to Li's 10 or so daily pages. Taking my time with several books at once feels free.It's like I have permission to pick up.books I've spent years meaning to approach.I really think Li is onto something. 24.What does Yiyun Li advise her students to do? A.Read 100 pages of books daily. B.Focus on writers'experiences. C.Find joy in the art of slow reading. D.Absorb new words while reading. 25.What was the writer's reading habit? A.Repeating reading familiar texts. B finishing a book as soon as possible. C.Sharing the books with others. D.Reading several books at the same time. 26.What does the writer find when following Li's advice? A.His reading speed is faster. B.There might be a bond between books. C.It is easy to break-old reading habits. D.Two months is enough to finish a book. 27.What is the writer's attitude towards savouring a-book? A.Favourable. B.Objective. C.Anxious. D.Unclear. C At a time when the general public may not yet accept driver-less taxis and ride-hailng )vehicles,teledr:ving could offer many of the same benefits,according to a new study.Teledriving typically involves a driver operating a car while sitting in front of a bank of screens that show video feeds (from cameras on the car,as well as sensors and AR technology.Once a passenger has been picked up,transported,and dropped off,the driver can disconnect from that vehicle and connect to any other available one in an area ot need. 高二英语第4页（共10页） One of the main advantages of teledriving,says Saif Benjaafar,a professor at the University of Michigan,is that drivers do not need to be physically present with the vehicles.Ihis allows teledriving to avoid the "wild goose chase"situation,where drivers waste time searching for passengers. "Teledriving allows you to operate with far fewer drivers than vehicles without affecting service quality because you can take advantage of extra vehicles to reach customers more quickly,"says Benjaafar. "There's an opportunity to significantly increase driver productivity,as one of the challenges for ride services has always been.idle-drivers.Mueh.of that inefficiency can be avoided." To support these claims.researchers used advanced computer modeling techniques that smmulate real-world traffic conditions.These models took multiple factors into account,including supply and demand changes and road congestron,to examine how the number of available vehicles compared to the number of drivers could impact service efficrency.The simulations showed that having more vehicles than drivers could significantly reduce traffic congestion and passenger waiting time during peak demand periods,leading to a better overall experience for users. "This research can be applied to the world by improving the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of ride-hailing and other on-demand transportation services,"says Benjaafar."By using teledriving, platforms can potentially operate with fewer drivers while maintaining or even improving service quality,which can lower operational costs and make these services more aecessible." 28.What happens after a passenger is aropped-off in the teledriving system A.The vehicle takes a break. B.The yehicle returns to a base. C.The driver must wait for a new ride. D.The driver switches to another vehicle. 29.How does teledriving improve efficienoy of ride-hailing drivers? A.By shortening work hours. B.By reducing unoccupied drivers. C By increasing available vehicles. D.By limiting passenger numbers. 30.What did the simulations show about vehicles.and-drivers? A.Fewer vehicles than drivers reduced waiting time. B.Fewer vehicles than drivers improved service efficiency. C More vehicles than drivers nelped maintain service quality. D.More vehicles than drivers caused serious traffic congestion. 31.What does the last paragraph mainly calk about? A.The necessity of reducing the number of drivers. B.The way of teledriving enhancing traffic congestion. C.The challenges of reducing waiting time for passengers. D.The possible impact of teledriving on service access and cost. D Who are your best friends on campus?Are they the ones you encountered most often in class?Are they your fellows in the drama club or the debate society?Something that has to influence whether people become friends is simple physical proximity And,in fact,the most lasting friendships are developed between people whose paths cross frequently. 高二英语第5页（共10页） A number of studies have demonstrated the effects of proximity on who become friends.One such study was condueted at MIT in the 19408.The freshmen were randomly assigned to 17 ten-unit apartment buildings that were separated from other residential areas,and few of them knew one another before. The investigators asked each resident to name the three people in the student housing project with whom they socialized mest often.The effect of proximity was striking:two-thirds of those listed as friends lived in the same building as the participants.More striking still was the pattern of friendships within each building.Even though the physical distanee between apartments was quite small-19 feet between the doorways of neighboring apartments and 89 feet between those at the ends of each hallway-41 percent of those living in neighboring apartments listed each other as friends,compared with only 10 percent of those living at opposite ends of the hallway. Proximity leads to friendship because it helps accidental encounters.If so,then pure physical distance should matter less than functional distance,that is,the influence of an architectural design to encourage ordiscourage contact between people.The MIT study shows just how important functional distance is.As the Figure of the MIT Study below indicates,the stairs are positioned such that upstairs residents will encounter the residents of apartments at the turn of the stairs much more often than the residents of the middle apartments.And in fact,the residents of the stair-end apartment formed twice as many friendships with their upstairs neighbors as those living in the middle apartments. 8-19一7 -19' 8 32 19 10 00000 Figure of the MIT Study Thus,it's functional distance more than physical distance that is decisive.Proximity promotes friendship because it brings people together.Actually,in later studies involving more diverse populations,the largest effects of proximity on friendship formation have been found between people of different races,ages,or social classes. 32.What does the underlined word proximity"-in Paragraph 1 most probably-mean? A.Shared personal interests. B.Mutual understanding. C.Close physical or social nearness. D.Frequent communication 33.What do we know about the MIP experiment? A.Students chose their own apartments freely. B.Most participants had known each other before C Students were asked about their social connections. D.It studied friendships across different races and ages. 高二英语第6页（共10页) 34.Which apartment's residents in the figure above may make most friends in the building? A.Apartment 2. B.Apartment 3. C.Apartment 7. D.Apartment 8. 35.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.The Role of Diversity in Cross-group Friendships B.The Role of Architecture on Social Connections C Proximity:Frequent Encounters Boost Friendships D.Proximity:Physical Distance Rules in the Social Ties 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 What Do Our Dreams Tell Us?

When my friend Robby headed for a hot dog stand,I decided to keep her company.We watched the vendor (put together the perfect hot dog,just the way Robby wanted it.But when she took out her money to pay him,the man surprised us.It's a bit chilly today,"he said,"Don't worry about paying.This one is on me-my treat for the day."We said our thanks,joined our friends in the park, and dug into our food. But as we talked and ate,I was distracted by a man sitting alone nearby,looking at us.I could tell that he hadn't showered for days.Another homeless person,I thought,like all the others you see in cities,I didn't pay much more attention to that. We finished eating and decided to head off for more sightseeing But when Robby and I went to the garbage can to throw away our lunch bag,I heard a strong voice usk,"There isn't any food in that bag,is there?” It was the man who had been watching us.I froze for a second,not knowing how to reply."No, we've already finished everything,"I answered softly. "Oh,"was his only answer,with no shame in his voice at all.He was obviously hungry,hated to see anything thrown away,and was used to asking this question.
