【答案】1. B 2. A 3. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章详细阐述了路易斯教育部门(LDOE)的AI整合框架的四个主要组成部分及其目的和作用。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Adopting a continuous cycle of exploration and improvement, it empowers schools to adopt AI responsibly while prioritizing student safety and future readiness.(该框架采用持续的探索和改进周期,使学校能够在优先考虑学生安全和未来准备的同时,负责任地采用AI。)”可知,该框架的主要目的是使学校为负责任地使用AI做好准备。故选B项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Evaluation & Monitoring”部分“This component centers on assessing the impact of AI application in educational settings.(这一部分主要关注评估AI在教育环境中的应用影响。)”可知,“评估与监测”部分主要关注的是评估AI在教育环境中的应用影响,即,检查AI使用的影响。故选A项。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Policy & Guidance”部分“This component addresses the need for clear guidelines and policies that govern AI’s responsible use in educational settings. It involves developing frameworks for data privacy, ensuring access to AI resources, and establishing standards for designing and using AI tools.(这一部分解决了制定明确的指导方针和政策的需求,以规范AI在教育环境中的负责任使用。它涉及制定数据隐私框架,确保获得AI资源,以及为设计和使用AI工具建立标准。)”可知,如果一个学校计划引入AI工具来帮助学生,而负责的老师正在寻找避免学生个人数据被滥用方法,那么老师应该主要参考“政策与指导”部分,因为它涉及制定数据隐私框架。故选B项。
B
All alone, the small brown coin lay on the windowsill. Occasionally, a spider or a fly came by; he wore spider webs, and a light layer of dust. The morning sun warmed him, then moved away. He had been placed there “in case”, and so he waited.
No one needed him for much of anything, these days. Policymakers kept remarking, woundingly, that it cost more to make each penny (in 2024, 3.69 cents) than it was worth. That was why, they explained, they would be ending production in 2026.
For some time now, people had soured on him. When he was handed over in change, shoppers waved him away with “Keep the penny”. Increasingly, they simply waved a card and ignored him. He had spent longer and longer simply lying around.
In economic terms, however, he liked to think he was still important, encouraging careful budgeting. The price was calculated down to the smallest detail (namely, him). When a product was priced at $19.99, rather than $20, people were more willing to buy it, boosting the economy.
Then there was the matter of charity. Where would all those boxes be, without the likes of him? In several cities cents were harvested for good causes; school children collected them in cloth bags. Thousands of dollars were raised that way, little by little.
Such arguments, however, plainly did not persuade policymakers. What, then, was his future, and that of any other penny? As an accessory, perhaps. After all, pennies were lucky. A good-looking cent, as cents went, he could become a button. Glued to a leg, he could stop a chair from wobbling (摇晃). There were worse fates, such as being thrown in a fountain.
None of this was what he had been made for. And so, with humility (谦卑), he accepted his new purpose in national life. Perhaps, some day, he would hear his owner say: “Glad I kept that penny.” In the far future he might become rare and valuable. This was his chief comfort that some people, at least, would still appreciate that face value and true worth are not at all the same thing.
4. Which paragraph presents an argument against policymakers’ decision?
A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4.
5. Why is charity mentioned in Paragraph 5?
A. To introduce new problems in charity work.
B. To raise concerns about wasting small coins.
C. To give further evidence of the penny’s value.
D. To make a contrast between giving and spending.
6. What would the penny imagine as its best possible future?
A. Becoming a collectible. B. Ending up in a fountain.
C. Being used as a decoration. D. Being remade into a new coin.
7. What is the overall tone of the text?
A. Very formal but a bit dry. B. Mildly humorous but a bit sad.
C. Seemingly calm but a bit distant. D. Highly romantic but a bit unreal.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一枚被放置在窗台上的便士硬币,面对即将被停止生产的命运,思考自身价值及未来可能用途的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“In economic terms, however, he liked to think he was still important, encouraging careful budgeting. The price was calculated down to the smallest detail (namely, him). When a product was priced at $19.99, rather than $20, people were more willing to buy it, boosting the economy.(然而,从经济角度来看,他喜欢认为自己仍然很重要,鼓励人们精打细算。价格计算到了最小的细节(即他)。当一件产品定价为19.99美元,而不是20美元时,人们更愿意购买它,从而促进经济发展)”可知,第四段提出了反对政策制定者决定的论点,即便士在促进经济发展方面仍有重要作用。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Then there was the matter of charity. Where would all those boxes be, without the likes of him? In several cities cents were harvested for good causes; school children collected them in cloth bags. Thousands of dollars were raised that way, little by little.(然后是慈善事业。如果没有像他这样的硬币,那些盒子会放在哪里呢?在几个城市里,人们为了慈善事业而收集便士;小学生们用布袋收集它们。就这样,一点一点地筹集了数千美元)”可知,提到慈善是为了进一步证明便士的价值,即便士在慈善事业中也能发挥重要作用。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“In the far future he might become rare and valuable. This was his chief comfort that some people, at least, would still appreciate that face value and true worth are not at all the same thing.(在遥远的未来,他可能会变得稀有而珍贵。这是他主要的安慰,至少有些人仍然会明白面值和真正的价值完全不是一回事)”可知,便士想象自己最好的未来是成为收藏品,变得稀有而珍贵。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容,文章通过拟人化的手法,以一枚便士的视角讲述了其面临被停止生产的命运,思考自身价值及未来可能用途的故事,例如最后一段中“This was his chief comfort that some people, at least, would still appreciate that face value and true worth are not at all the same thing.(让他感到最大安慰的是,至少还有一些人会明白面值和真正的价值完全不是一回事)”整体语气略带幽默,但同时也流露出一种淡淡的忧伤,因为便士即将失去其原有的地位和作用。故选B。
C
While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead.
Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brömmelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets and the role they play in our lives.
Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well.
Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty-six million people, among the highest rate of car ownership in the world.
We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can’t move safely around our communities? The authors of Movement have it right: it’s time to think differently about that street outside your front door.
8. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1?
A. Cars often get stuck on the road. B. Traffic accidents occur frequently.
C. People walk less and drive more. D. Pedestrians fail to follow the rules.
9. What were the Canadian journalist and other campaigners trying to do?
A. Keep their cities livable. B. Promote cultural diversity.
C. Help the needy families. D. Make expressways accessible.
10. What can be inferred about the campaigns in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s?
A. They boosted the sales of cars. B. They turned out largely ineffective.
C. They won government support. D. They advocated building new parks.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Why the Rush? B. What’s Next?
C. Where to Stay? D. Who to Blame?
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了西方城市过度围绕汽车设计导致行人流动性下降,尤其是儿童步行减少的现象,并通过历史案例和现状分析呼吁反思街道功能,重视城市宜居性。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead. (虽然近年来我们的街道可能已经改善了安全性,但交通研究也表明行人的流动性下降,尤其是年轻儿童。许多家长说,路上的交通太拥挤,他们的孩子无法安全步行上学,所以他们把孩子塞进车里)”可知,作者指出的现象是人们步行减少、开车增多。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” (最著名的是,一位加拿大记者在20世纪50年代初举家迁往曼哈顿,她领导了一场阻止当地公园被毁的运动。在描述她对用高速公路取代公园的提议感到震惊时,Jane Jacobs呼吁她的市长捍卫“纽约作为适宜居住的地方,而不仅是匆匆穿过的通道”)”可推知,加拿大记者和其他运动参与者旨在保持城市宜居性。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. (尽管这些运动很普遍,但现实是大多数西方城市完全围绕汽车需求重新设计。道路上的汽车数量一直在迅速增加)”可推知,20世纪60年代末和70年代澳大利亚的竞选活动未能阻止汽车发展,基本上没有效果。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,并根据文章最后一段“We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can’t move safely around our communities? (我们在帮助我们快速通过的道路上投入了大量资金,但我们没有考虑到真正的成本。我们真的认识到当孩子们不能在我们的社区安全地移动时,我们作为一个社会将会付出什么代价吗)”可推知,本文批判城市过度追求交通效率、忽视行人需求的现象,A项“Why the Rush? (为何匆匆?)”质问“rush through (匆匆通行)”的规划理念,契合主旨,最适合作为本文标题。故选A。
D
On March 7, 1907, the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what has come to be known as the “wisdom of crowds” effect. The experiment of estimation he conducted showed that in some cases, the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite accurate.
This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors, those errors aren’t always the same. Some people will tend to overestimate, and some to underestimate. When enough of these errors are averaged together, they cancel each other out, resulting in a more accurate estimate. If people are similar and tend to make the same errors, then their errors won’t cancel each other out. In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people’s estimates be independent. If for whatever reasons, people’s errors become correlated or dependent, the accuracy of the estimate will go down.
But a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist (转折) on this classic phenomenon. The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were allowed to have a discussion, the averages from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals. For instance, the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independent individuals.
In a follow-up study with 100 university students, the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group members actually did in their discussion. Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates? Did they follow those least willing to change their minds? This happened some of the time, but it wasn’t the dominant response. Most frequently, the groups reported that they “shared arguments and reasoned together”. Somehow, these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error. Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain, the potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are enormous.
12. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?
A. The methods of estimation. B. The underlying logic of the effect.
C. The causes of people’s errors. D. The design of Galton’s experiment.
13. Navajas’ study found that the average accuracy could increase even if ________.
A. the crowds were relatively small B. there were occasional underestimates
C. individuals did not communicate D. estimates were not fully independent
14. What did the follow-up study focus on?
A. The size of the groups. B. The dominant members.
C. The discussion process. D. The individual estimates.
15. What is the author’s attitude toward Navajas’ studies?
A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Approving.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。没有人是一座孤岛,文章陈述了“群体智慧”效应。实验表明,在某些情况下大量独立估计的平均值可能是相当准确的。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段内容“This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors, those errors aren’t always the same. Some people will tend to overestimate, and come to underestimate. When enough of these errors are averaged together, they cancel each other out, resulting in a more accurate estimate. If people are similar and tend to make the same errors, then their errors won’t cancel each other out. In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people’s estimates be independent. If for whatever reasons, people s errors become correlated or dependent, the accuracy of the estimate will go down. (这种效应利用了这样一个事实,即当人们犯错误时,这些错误并不总是相同的。有些人常常会高估,或者低估。当这些误差中有足够多的误差被平均在一起时,它们会相互抵消,从而产生更准确的估计。如果相似的人倾向于犯同样的错误,那么他们的错误不会相互抵消。从更专业的角度来说,群众的智慧要求人们的估计是独立的。如果由于任何原因,人们的错误变得相关或依赖,估计的准确性就会下降)”可知,本段阐述了人们所犯的错误不总是相同的,各不相同的误差平均在一起,相互抵消就会产生更准确的估计,讨论了独立估计的平均如何由于误差的消除而产生更准确的预测。因此本段主要解释了“群体智慧”效应这一现象的基本逻辑。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people’s estimates be independent. (从更专业的角度来说,群众的智慧要求人们的估计是独立的)”和第三段的“The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were allowed to have a discussion, the averages from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals. For instance, the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independent individuals. (这项研究的关键发现是,当人群被进一步划分为允许进行讨论的小组时,这些小组的平均值比同等数量的独立个体的平均值更准确。例如,从四个五人讨论组的估计中获得的平均值明显比从20个独立个体获得的平均值更准确)”可知,人们在没有独立的情况下,分成更小群体,平均值是更准确的,说明即使在估计数字并非完全独立的情况下,准确率提高也是可以做到的。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的“In a follow-up study with 100 university students, the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group members actually did in their discussion. Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates? Did they follow those least willing to change their minds? (在一项针对100名大学生的后续研究中,研究人员试图更好地了解小组成员在讨论中的实际行为。他们是否倾向于选择那些对自己的估计最有信心的人?他们追随那些最不愿意改变主意的人吗)”可知,在后续研究中,研究人员试图更好地了解小组成员在讨论中实际做了什么。结合两个问题,因此可知后续研究的重点是小组内的讨论过程。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段内容“Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain, the potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are enormous. (尽管Navajas领导的研究有局限性,仍存在许多问题,但对小组讨论和决策的潜在影响是巨大的)”可知,作者认为虽然Navajas领导的研究有局限性也存在许多问题,但对小组讨论和决策的潜在影响巨大。因此推断作者对于Navajas的研究表示一定的赞许和支持。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了纽约一家餐厅通过将原本会被丢弃的食材制成菜肴,来提高人们对食物浪费问题的认识。
【36题详解】
考查代词。句意:我的灵魂也是如此。根据上文“Does your soul die a little every time you throw away unused food? ”及空后does可知,此处表示“我的灵魂也会(死一点)”,应用名词性物主代词Mine指代My soul,在句中作主语,句首单词首字母需大写。
【37题详解】
考查连词。句意:那种感受源于在南非长大,在那里“非洲有孩子在挨饿”这句话与其说是晚餐时分的祈祷,不如说是一个令人不安的事实提醒。根据句中“more ”可知,此处为固定搭配more...than...,表示“与其说……不如说……”。
【38题详解】
考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:今年三月有两周时间,Blue Hill餐厅被重新命名为wastED,并供应炸鳐鱼软骨和果汁渣汉堡等食物。根据时间状语“For two weeks in March”及“and served”,可知,应用一般过去时,和served并列作谓语;主语Blue Hill restaurant与动词rename之间为被动关系,且主语为单数,应用was done的形式。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意:每道菜都是量身定制的,旨在提高人们对食物浪费问题的认识。根据空前的动词raise可知,此处应用名词作宾语,aware的名词形式是awareness。raise awareness为固定搭配,意为“提高意识”。
【40题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:一项研究确定,普通餐厅每产生1000美元的收入就会产生33磅食物浪费,而在这些浪费中,高达84.3%被直接扔掉。根据“ the average restaurant generates”可知,此处谓语动词应用一般现在时,and并列的两个句子,时态一般是一致的,并且此处描述的也是客观事实;84.3%指代的是不可数名词waste,谓语动词应用单数形式。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意:其他餐厅也尝试过零浪费系统,但wastED将这一概念推向了合乎逻辑的结论。此处concept特指上文提到的“zero-waste systems”这一概念,为特指,应用定冠词the。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:相反,所有使用的食材都是大多数餐厅永远不会考虑供应的肉块和农产品。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导定语从句,先行词为meat cuts and produce,指物,关系词在从句中作宾语,用that/which。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:像羽衣甘蓝梗、鱼颈和被丢弃的红薯这样的食材,在多位优秀厨师的帮助下,都被重新利用并变成了美味佳肴。分析句子结构可知,空格处作定语修饰sweet potatoes,且reject与sweet potatoes之间为逻辑上的被动关系,应用过去分词。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意:句意:像羽衣甘蓝梗、鱼颈和被丢弃的红薯这样的食材,在多位优秀厨师的帮助下,都被重新利用并变成了美味佳肴。分析句子结构可知,were all re-appropriated与turned into为并列谓语,两者之间为顺承关系,应用连词and。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意:句意:尽管wastED收到了热情的评价,但它被设计为一个短暂的实验;Blue Hill此后恢复了常规菜单。分析句子结构可知,空格处修饰名词reviews,应用形容词,enthusiasm的形容词是enthusiastic。

As vividly shown in the chart, there has been a remarkable increase in the number of visitors to museums in China. In 2014, the number was merely 720 million, while in 2024, it soared to 1.4 billion.
This trend can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, museums nowadays present diverse exhibitions. They display not only historical relics but also modern scientific achievements, catering to various interests. Secondly, museums have enhanced interactivity.

47. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When Dr. Henderson was assigning (指定) project mates for his psychology class, I secretly hoped he would pair me with my best friend or at least a classmate I could have some fun with. Above all, I hoped he wouldn’t assign me to work with the fiercely competitive and extremely serious fellow who always wore dark clothes and apparently had a personality to match. As fate (命运) would have it, Dr. Henderson very deliberately matched everyone in class and announced that I would be working with the one person in class I wanted to avoid.
I went up to my new teammate and introduced myself. He looked at me as though I weren’t there. I felt he treated me as though I would hold him back and probably make him fail to get an A in the course. He wasn’t mean or abusive. He just gave me the impression that he could do whatever project we dreamed up better if he did it alone.
Needless to say, I didn’t look forward to an entire team of being brushed off, but I tried to make the best of it and didn’t say anything for fear that I would make things worse.
The project required each team to develop a hypothesis (假说), set up an experiment to test the hypothesis, do the statistical analysis and present the findings. Whatever grade the team received would be shared by both students.
When my teammate and I met to discuss our project, I was uneasy. Here was this challenging student who had a reputation for single-mindedness and good grades—the exact opposite of me. I actually wanted to drop the class at one point, but stopped short because I didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of my chickening out. I decided to stick to it no matter what.
After long discussions, we somehow agreed to do a study on the psychological well-being of teenagers. I wasn’t sure what it meant exactly, but at least we had a topic.
Para.1 We started to meet regularly to draw up our plans.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para. 2 Then one day I got word that he was admitted to the hospital for a serious disease.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
Para.1
We started to meet regularly to draw up our plans. Companion as I was in the project, I still had no sense of participating in the project. My teammate kept his brain occupied in developing the hypothesis, setting up an experiment to test it, and running the tests alone, leaving me just standing beside him as if I were a fool. “What a dull project it is!” I murmured to myself. However, something changed gradually, as I became aware what the tactile-kinesthetic perception of space meant. Thanks to the intense, fiercely competitive, singularly serious fellow, the whole procedure went smoothly, close to the final stage.
Para. 2
Then one day I got word that he was admitted to the hospital for a serious disease. Without any delay, I packed up my school bag, took all the experiment statistics and rushed to the hospital. Seeing the pale fellow wearing pure white clothes instead of the annoying dark clothes, I felt a sense of sympathy and mercy welling up in my heart. With his guidance, I finished the statistical analysis and presented the findings. It turned out to be such an amazing and persuasive study that my teammate and I did win the best grade. Now, we have been most reliable cooperative partners ever since!

B
All alone, the small brown coin lay on the windowsill. Occasionally, a spider or a fly came by; he wore spider webs, and a light layer of dust. The morning sun warmed him, then moved away. He had been placed there “in case”, and so he waited.
No one needed him for much of anything, these days. Policymakers kept remarking, woundingly, that it cost more to make each penny (in 2024, 3.69 cents) than it was worth. That was why, they explained, they would be ending production in 2026.
For some time now, people had soured on him. When he was handed over in change, shoppers waved him away with “Keep the penny”. Increasingly, they simply waved a card and ignored him. He had spent longer and longer simply lying around.
In economic terms, however, he liked to think he was still important, encouraging careful budgeting. The price was calculated down to the smallest detail (namely, him). When a product was priced at $19.99, rather than $20, people were more willing to buy it, boosting the economy.
Then there was the matter of charity. Where would all those boxes be, without the likes of him? In several cities cents were harvested for good causes; school children collected them in cloth bags. Thousands of dollars were raised that way, little by little.
Such arguments, however, plainly did not persuade policymakers. What, then, was his future, and that of any other penny? As an accessory, perhaps. After all, pennies were lucky. A good-looking cent, as cents went, he could become a button. Glued to a leg, he could stop a chair from wobbling (摇晃). There were worse fates, such as being thrown in a fountain.
None of this was what he had been made for. And so, with humility (谦卑), he accepted his new purpose in national life. Perhaps, some day, he would hear his owner say: “Glad I kept that penny.” In the far future he might become rare and valuable. This was his chief comfort that some people, at least, would still appreciate that face value and true worth are not at all the same thing.
4. Which paragraph presents an argument against policymakers’ decision?
A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4.
5. Why is charity mentioned in Paragraph 5?
A. To introduce new problems in charity work.
B. To raise concerns about wasting small coins.
C. To give further evidence of the penny’s value.
D. To make a contrast between giving and spending.
6. What would the penny imagine as its best possible future?
A. Becoming a collectible. B. Ending up in a fountain.
C. Being used as a decoration. D. Being remade into a new coin.
7. What is the overall tone of the text?
A. Very formal but a bit dry. B. Mildly humorous but a bit sad.
C. Seemingly calm but a bit distant. D. Highly romantic but a bit unreal.
C
While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead.
Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brömmelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets and the role they play in our lives.
Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well.
Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty-six million people, among the highest rate of car ownership in the world.
We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs.

On March 7, 1907, the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what has come to be known as the “wisdom of crowds” effect. The experiment of estimation he conducted showed that in some cases, the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite accurate.
This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors, those errors aren’t always the same. Some people will tend to overestimate, and some to underestimate. When enough of these errors are averaged together, they cancel each other out, resulting in a more accurate estimate. If people are similar and tend to make the same errors, then their errors won’t cancel each other out. In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people’s estimates be independent. If for whatever reasons, people’s errors become correlated or dependent, the accuracy of the estimate will go down.
But a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist (转折) on this classic phenomenon. The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were allowed to have a discussion, the averages from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals. For instance, the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independent individuals.
In a follow-up study with 100 university students, the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group members actually did in their discussion. Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates? Did they follow those least willing to change their minds? This happened some of the time, but it wasn’t the dominant response. Most frequently, the groups reported that they “shared arguments and reasoned together”. Somehow, these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error. Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain, the potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are enormous.
12. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?
A. The methods of estimation. B. The underlying logic of the effect.
C. The causes of people’s errors. D. The design of Galton’s experiment.
13. Navajas’ study found that the average accuracy could increase even if ________.
A. the crowds were relatively small B. there were occasional underestimates
C. individuals did not communicate D. estimates were not fully independent
14. What did the follow-up study focus on?
A. The size of the groups. B. The dominant members.
C. The discussion process. D. The individual estimates.
15. What is the author’s attitude toward Navajas’ studies?
A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Approving.

47. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When Dr. Henderson was assigning (指定) project mates for his psychology class, I secretly hoped he would pair me with my best friend or at least a classmate I could have some fun with. Above all, I hoped he wouldn’t assign me to work with the fiercely competitive and extremely serious fellow who always wore dark clothes and apparently had a personality to match. As fate (命运) would have it, Dr. Henderson very deliberately matched everyone in class and announced that I would be working with the one person in class I wanted to avoid.
I went up to my new teammate and introduced myself. He looked at me as though I weren’t there. I felt he treated me as though I would hold him back and probably make him fail to get an A in the course. He wasn’t mean or abusive. He just gave me the impression that he could do whatever project we dreamed up better if he did it alone.
Needless to say, I didn’t look forward to an entire team of being brushed off, but I tried to make the best of it and didn’t say anything for fear that I would make things worse.
The project required each team to develop a hypothesis (假说), set up an experiment to test the hypothesis, do the statistical analysis and present the findings. Whatever grade the team received would be shared by both students.
When my teammate and I met to discuss our project, I was uneasy. Here was this challenging student who had a reputation for single-mindedness and good grades—the exact opposite of me. I actually wanted to drop the class at one point, but stopped short because I didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of my chickening out. I decided to stick to it no matter what.
After long discussions, we somehow agreed to do a study on the psychological well-being of teenagers. I wasn’t sure what it meant exactly, but at least we had a topic.
Para.1 We started to meet regularly to draw up our plans.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para. 2 Then one day I got word that he was admitted to the hospital for a serious disease.
