21、 As a famous doctor, Sigmund Freud has problems telling his left from his right. He writes in his diary: I do not know whether it is obvious to other people which is their own or other’s right or left. In my case, I have to think which is my right and no organic feeling tells me. To make sure which is my right hand, I have to make a few writing movements quickly.
Neuroscientist Eric Chudler at the University of Washington referred to a recent study where 71 of 364 (19.5 percent) college professors and 311 of 1,185 (26.2 percent) college students said that they occasionally, frequently or all of the time had difficulty when they had to quickly identify right from left. Chudler told The Washington Post that 95 percent of the 3,719 people who tried his test reported more difficulty with left/right than with up/down.
In most cases, left/right confusion is rarely a big deal. But knowing your directions obviously can be critical if you’re a surgeon or a pilot. That’s why in key situations, there are plans in place to minimize（使减到最少）the chance of problems. In a health care situation, someone may write “not this leg” on a limb（肢）, for example. And in the air, because distractions（分心）can cause any number of errors, pilots must avoid all non—essential conversation during the critical phases of flight.
Experts say that right/left confusion doesn’t mean you’re not smart. But scientists aren’t totally sure what causes the right/left confusion. There does, however, seem to be a link between right/left confusion and brain lateralization（偏侧性）—the fact that the right and left halves of the brain each control unique functions.
There may, however, be an association with gender（性别）. Several studies have found that women are more likely than men to say they are sometimes unable to distinguish between their right and their left. But some researchers say that’s only because women are more likely than men to admit they may have a problem.
【1】According to Sigruund Freud’s diary, he .
A.can’t tell the right directly
B.doesn’t know which is his right hand
C.is more foolish than other people
D.isn’t satisfied with his organic feeling
【2】Eric Chudler mentions the numbers in Paragraph 2 to tell us that .
A.it is easy to tell up from down
B.left/right is as important as up/down
C.many people have trouble with left/right
D.most people can judge left/right easily
【3】Which of the following may be the important moment of flight according to the text?
A.When the plane is taking off.
B.When the plane is coming down.
C.When the pilot is talking with others.
D.When the pilot is judging the directions.
【4】Where can you probably read the text?
A.In a private diary. B.In a science fiction.
C.In a latest newspaper. D.In a fashion magazine.

23、Many people quote the phrase from Jane Jacobs that “there must be eyes on the street” to emphasize the relationship between urban safety and design. Jacobs’ views on urban safety were, in truth, far more complex than this phrase suggests. Her book The Death and Life of Great American Cities has become the basis of a worldwide movement to foster safer cities.
Jacobs made an important contribution to our understanding of cities by linking the fear of crime and urban design. In a successful city district a person must feel personally safe on the street among all these strangers. It doesn’t take many incidents of violence on a city street to make people fear the street. And as they fear them, they use them less, which makes the streets still more unsafe.
For Jacobs, eyes on the street came from stores and public places, including bars and restaurants along the sidewalks, street vendors and pedestrians. She recommended the installation of bright street lights to “sharpen every pair of eyes”.
Jacobs widened her attention to urban safety in general, including parks and public housing projects. While most planners focus on the green benefits of parks, she argued against underused or dangerous parks. She observed that parks are successful when they encourage a range of activities and users.
She emphasized design and management policies to encourage interaction at public housing sites. She suggest ed integrating public housing communities into existing street patterns and cultivating street activity by including businesses in the buildings. She opposed fencing and security guards, creating a sense of territory and isolating public housing residents from the wider community.
Jacobs wrote about her experience of daily life in the city and urged planners to pay attention to how ordinary people actually use urban space. From her experience as a wife, mother, and resident in New York, she arrived at a more human vision of the city than the experts of the day did. Her concern about urban safety was visionary (有远见的), and her manner of looking at the city still offers a critical viewpoint for evaluating crime prevention and community safety strategies today.

A．To call readers’ attention to the phrase.
B．To introduce Jane Jacobs’ book.
C．To prove the popularity of Jane Jacobs’ book.
D．To make the phrase better known.
【2】According to Jacobs, what is a proper way to foster a successful city?
A．Warning people of violence in streets.
B．Encouraging different activities in parks.
C．Employing security guards in the buildings.
D．Introducing safety policies at public housing sites.
【3】Where is the text probably from?
A．A book review.
B．A guidebook.
C．An advertisement.
D．A biography.
24、 In our magazine’s document room, from the June 1920 issue, I discovered a piece, What Editors Do, by Hazel Miller. What she talks about caught my eye: The first World War and its ending just two years before.
“During 1917 and 1918, when the World War was going, there was a huge demand for war material,” Miller writes. “Most magazines were carrying practically nothing but war stories. When the War ended in November, 1918, some editors still had a goodly supply of war fiction and articles—for which they had paid real money—on their hands, which most people by now are fed up with.”
Her words have stuck with me for the past 12 months as we’ve weighed which COVID-19 stories to run and which to hold. I’m writing these words with thick snow outside my window, but they will reach you in the green of spring. Will you be vaccinated(接种疫苗) and tired of reading about COVID-19 then?
We say writing is an art, and publishing is a business, but I worry we forget that publishing is also a gamble(赌博), Except for the immediate publication, everyone in the industry—agents, acquiring editors, magazine and journal editors, etc.—are betting on a story’s success in a future we cannot see. As is the nature of fortune telling, we are not so sure we will not occasionally lose: The 1920 editors sitting on a store of war stories no one wants, for example.
With so many factors outside your control, and so much uncertainty in the industry, isn’t it better to have stories written from the heart that you are truly enthusiastic about rather than some to please an ever-changing publishing market?
My future reader, it’s my hope that this issue finds you this spring doing just that: Writing the stories you need to tell—and the ones that will delight your own future readers for years to come.
【1】What does the writer probably do?
A．A journalist.
B．An editor.
C．A librarian.
D．A historian.
【2】What did Miller’s words suggest?
A．The First World War shouldn’t have ended too soon.
B．Some editors would make a great fortune by storing war material
C．In the post-war years, people still enjoyed reading about war.
D．Too much war material had been stored by some editors.
【3】The writer find Miller’s words especially useful when_______.
A．deciding which COVID-19 stories to publish
B．writing during the winter months
C．waiting for the green of spring
D．expecting to be vaccinated
【4】What is the writer’s message to the potential authors?
A．To please the present publishing market.
B．To learn the nature of fortune-telling
C．To control as many factors as possible.
D．To write from the heart for the future readers.
25、I had reached the age of twenty-eight. Still, I _______ whether the letter from my past would make it to me, all these years later. It was a（n） _______writing task from when I was eighteen.

________to my belief, my eighteen-year-old self did not have any demands of me, or expectations I might have ________ meet. Instead, she wrote, “I'll ________whatever you do.

I was touched, and tears welled up in my eyes at this________ through time. I had put a lot of pressure on myself to be the best ________ of myself that I could be. However, I came to realize what I would have ________ in ten years would pale in comparison to how I'd feel and who I'd be.
