26、Children are now more likely to want to work in social media or gaming than traditional Careers. According to a new survey, many from seven to 1l-year-olds are looking at modern technology when they think about future jobs, rather than professions such as police officer or doctor.
The survey involved 13, 000 UK primary school children. They were asked to draw pictures of the job they wanted to do when they grow up and then tell the reasons. It concluded that children’s career aspirations (志向) are often based on factors such as gender stereotypes (性别角色定型) or what they’ve seen in the media, TV and film.
“For more and more children and young people, online celebrities and YouTube gaming ‘videobloggers’ have taken the place of TV and movie stars, ”the report said. “It could be argued that this is due to the growing fame and attraction of YouTube and video blogging stars, who are especially popular among younger audiences. Also, this may also speak to children’s present worlds. Many from seven to 11-year-olds will spend their time gaming and perhaps at the same time watching celebrity gaming bloggers instructing them how to do it.”
The survey found that 5% of children wanted to be in the police, with the same percentage on becoming doctors. A gender breakdown shows the top job choice for girls was teacher(19%), followed by vet(11%)and sportsman(9%)and police(8%).
This highlights the pressing need for closer ties between employers and schools, to ensure that all children can have role models in a wide range of fields to help them develop an awareness of career choices at an early age. “This is vital to ensure that all children —regardless of gender and backgrounds- can fulfill their full potential.”
【1】What is the traditional career choice, according to the passage?
A．Police officer.
B．Online celebrity.
C．Professional game-player.
D．Video blogger.
【2】What’s the favourite thing children from seven to eleven love to do, according to the survey?
A．Play games and watch popular TV series.
B．Participate in various sports in order to be sports men or women.
C．Study hard and make great efforts to become teachers and police officers.
D．Play games and watch celebrity gaming bloggers instructing them how to do it.
【3】What conclusion can we draw from the survey?
A．All children can achieve their goals.
B．Parents can influence children’s career choices.
C．Children spend more time gaming than studying.
D．Children need a broader look at the career fields.
【4】In which column can you probably read the article?
A．Science.
B．Education.
C．Sports.
D．Culture.
27、Reasons Why Change Is Good for You
We all know that change is hard because your brain is used to doing the same thing again and again. 【1】 But the positive consequence is really great. Here are four reasons why change is good for you:
◆ 【2】
Life in the comfort zone is easy. You simply follow a routine and you can predict the results. Outside of the comfort zone, your assumptions are questioned. The idea of doing the same thing over and over without question is discouraged.
◆ You get to experience more.
【3】 When you look back on your life, all of the really amazing things are because of a new experience you had. All of those vacations you took and all of the people you have met have taught you more than you ever learned in school. These experiences now make up who you are today.
◆ You’ll be more flexible and adaptable.
Without doubt, change makes you more flexible and adaptable. You learn to deal with things in a way that seems foreign but acceptable and achievable. 【4】 You begin to thrive (茁壮成长) in new situations because you have proven to yourself that you can, not only handle change, but FLOURISH.
◆ You have more fun.
When you are open to change, you are open to saying YES to more. You are open to more experiences and opportunities. 【5】 When you add all of these things together, you are going to have a more colorful life and you’ll have a ton of fun figuring it all out along the way—there’s no doubt about it.
A．You are pushed out of your comfort zone.
B．Experience is waiting for you at the doorstep.
C．You have the opportunity to meet more people too.
D．Whether the change is good or bad for you, it does happen.
E．We also know how challenging it can be to go through change.
F．Then, you’ll be more confident when in the next uncomfortable situation.
G．Change is good because you have the chance to involve in new experiences.
28、 Jenny was a pretty five-year-old girl. One day when she and her mother were checking out at the grocery store, Jenny saw a plastic pearl（珍珠）necklace priced at $2.50. Her mother bought the necklace for her on condition that she had to do some housework to pay it off. Jenny agreed. She worked very hard every day, and soon Jenny paid off the necklace. Jenny loved it so much that she wore it everywhere except when she was in the shower. Her mother had told her it would turn her neck green!
Jenny had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed, he would read Jenny her favorite story.
One night when he finished the story, he said," Jenny, could you give me your necklace?
"Oh! Daddy, not my necklace!" Jenny said. "But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll. Remember her? You gave her to me last year for my birthday. Okay?"
"Oh no, darling, that's okay." Her father brushed her cheek with kiss. "Good night, little one."
A week later, her father once again asked Jenny for the necklace after her favorite story.
"Oh, Daddy, not my necklace! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her? She's my favorite."
"No, that's okay," her father said and brushed her cheek again with a kiss. "God bless you, little one. Sweet dreams."
Several days letter, when Jenny's father came in to read her a story, Jenny was sitting on her bed and her lip was trembling." Here, Daddy." she said, holding out her hand. She opened it and her beloved pearl necklace was inside. She let it slip into her father's hand.
With one hand her father held the plastic pearl necklace and with the other he pulled out of his pocket a blue box inside the box was a real, beautiful pearl necklace. He had had it all along. He was waiting for Jenny to give up the cheap necklace so he could give her a real one.

29、 You’ re in your car, heading for a crossroads. The light turns yellow, so you decide to step on the gas. Then you see a police car. Almost instantly, you know that stepping on the accelerator （油门） is a mistake. But there’s a good chance that you’ll do it anyway, says Susan Courtney, a professor in the Department of Psychological& Brain Sciences at Johns Hopkins University.
Thar’s because as one area of your brain is recognizing that police car, other areas have already begun carrying out your original plan to speed up. "Even if you haven’t actually started moving your your brain has already started that plan, Courtney says. And stopping a plan requires a lot of brainpower, Courtney and a team of researchers report in the journal Neuron
The team monitored the brain activity of 21 people as they met with a situation that was a bit like approaching a crossroads when the night turns yellow. Participants were asked to focus on a central point on a screen and wait for a target to appear somewhere else. Sometimes they were allowed to do the natural thing and shift their gaze to the target when it appeared. However, most of the time, they got a visual order to resist the wish to move their gaze. In other words, they had to cancel an action the brain was already planning to carry out.
The study found that changing an action required three key brain areas to communicate with eight other areas. Previous research had suggested fewer areas were required. The team also found that all the communication had to occur when participants got the order not to move their eyes.
This lag （落后） is why we experience that awful moment when our brain knows we shouldn’t step on the accelerator, but our foot does it anyway. "If the signal has already been sent, you can only watch it happen without being able to stop it, "Courtney says. The brain’s stop system appears to be involved in a lot more than just controlling our bodies. "It’s not just about stopping your foot or your eyes;it’s about changing your plan, "Courtney says.
【1】What will people most probably do in the situation according to Susan?
A.They will stop the car.
B.They will drive slowly.
C.They will speed up.
D.They will avoid the police car.
【2】What do Courtney’s words show?
A.The brain needs a long time to deal with the signal.
B.It is hard for the brain to accept two different signals.
C.Sometimes people will stop an action without realizing it.
D.Changing an action requires different parts of the brain to work together.
【3】What does the text want to show?
A.How to make a change.
B.How to stop a dangerous action.
C.Why your brain reacts faster than your body.
D.Why you have trouble in stopping an action.

Wearing face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic p【1】 the spread of the deadly virus. But it is also i【2】. For one, we can no longer unlock our phones using facial recognition since a good part of our face is c【3】.
F【4】, tech companies are working to solve the problem. Apple, for example, offered a new way to unlock your iPhone and iPad with its l【5】 software update, iOS13.5, w【6】 was released on May 20.
Even though the update still won’t recognize your masked face, it makes the whole process f【7】. While the old system wouldn’t allow access t【8】 the passcode screen before three failed face scan attempts, iOS13.5 will send you straight to the passcode screen when you swipe up.

36、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
AI artwork sells for $432,500 — nearly 45 times its high【1】 — as Christie’s becomes the first auction house to offer a work of art created by an algorithm. This portrait, however, is not the product of a human mind. It was created by an【2】 intelligence, an algorithm defined by that algebraic formula with its many parentheses. And when it went under the【3】 in the Prints & Multiples sale at Christie’s on 23-25 October, Portrait of Edmond Belamy sold for an【4】 $432,500, signaling the arrival of AI art on the world auction stage.
From a distance, Portrait of Edmond de Belamy looks almost plausible. Up close, however, the paintwork becomes a grid of mechanical-looking dots, the man’s face a golden blur with black holes for eyes. Look into those eyes. They show no sign of feeling or life. Did a computer make this?
The answer is yes. The first artwork【5】 by AI to be sold at Christie’s, its【6】 price would seem to suggest that in future we will get computers to make art for us. Robot van Gogh will harmlessly cut its ear off and robot Picasso will be a genius.
Is this the future AI art visionaries such as the French collective Obvious, which programmed this “painter” by getting it to compare its own work with 15,000 pre-20th century portraits, have in mind? Or are they just, God forbid, making a fast buck from deceivable art collectors? Because believing the algorithm that knocked this up to be in any meaningful way an “artist” is like thinking your voice-interaction programme is out to get you. Dream on. Computers would need to replicate human consciousness before they could replicate the funny thing humans do called “art”.
Art is a way in which human 【7】 expresses itself, and is equally true of the earliest cave art, Rembrandt’s portraits and Duchamp’s urinal. And that is what is missing from Portrait of Edmond Bellamy. Art is a way humans communicate ideas, perceptions and feelings to each other. It has no 【8】 outside the human passion to communicate. So in what meaningful sense can an AI replica of certain【9】 traits of old master paintings be called art?
For a robot to really make art, it would need an autonomous mind that was emotional as well as【10】. No AI developer has yet claimed to be anywhere near achieving that and if they ever do, their creation will probably have better things to do than paint portraits — like destroy humanity.
Maybe afterwards robots will invent their own kind of art, but it won’t be some poor pastiche of human genius.
It will be beyond anything we organics could imagine.
37、阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Smell the flowers before you go to sleep and you may just end up with rosy dreams. Have a whiff of rotten(腐烂的)eggs during the night and your dreams may be【1】(pleasant). So says researcher Dr. Boris Stuck, 【2】invited sleeping volunteers to a rose vs. rotten egg test in the University Hospital Mannheim in Germany. The subjects didn’t dream about roses【3】eggs, but rather he found that what they smelt affected the emotions of【4】(they) dreams.
And if you think【5】(smell) have a say in dreams, wait for what TV tells us. A UK study reveals that people exposed【6】black-and-white film and TV in their youth are to have monochromic(单色的)dreams throughout their life more【7】(probable). Eva Murzyn from the University of Dundee tested two age groups— one half 【8】(age) over 55 and【9】other half under 25.
The result? Under 5% of the dreams of the under-25s were in black and white. 【10】(watch)color TV in childhood seems to be the reason why.
