Do Animals Dream?

You can’t see your sleeping pet’s bran waves,but its behavior can tell you when Fido or Fluffy might be dreaming.If you watch clock you’ll see that as your cat falls asleep,her breathing becomes slow and regular and her body still.She has entered the first stage of sleep.___21___（call）slow-wave sleep.After about15minutes you’ll notice a change___22___her eyes move under her closed lids.Fluffy has entered the REM（Rapid Eye Movement），or dreaming,stage of sleep.Although she moves and makes little grunting noises,messages from her brain to the large muscles in her legs___23___（block），so she can’t run about.

Back in1963,Michel Jouvet,French scientist who was studying steep in cats___24___（interrupt）their Sleep paralysis,the state of being unable to act or function properly.___25_________they were completely asleep,the dreaming cats began to chase balls that Jouvet couldn’t see and bent their backs at invisible enemies. He figures he was watching them act out their dreams!

What were they dreaming about?Mostly,the dreaming cats seemed___26___（practise）important cat skills: stalking,pouncing,and fighting.

In___27___study,Mat Wilson,a neuroscientist,recorded rats’brain waves while they learned mazes（迷宫）. One day,he left the brain-wave-recording machine on while the rats fell asleep.The pattern of brain waves in the sleeping rats matched the pattern from the maze so closely that Wilson could locate exactly which part of the maze each rat was dreaming about!

Many researchers now think that in both people and animals,one purpose of dreams is to practise important skills and nail down recent learning.This may explain why so many people dream about fighting and escaping, skills___28___were probably vitally important to our ancestors,and why dreaming affects our ability to learn. Do all animals dream?From looking at the brain waves of sleeping animals,scientists think that all mammals dream,such as humans,dogs,lions,and whales,but fish___29___not.（They’re not sure about birds.）

How often animals dream seems to be tied to body size.Cats dream about every15minutes,mice every9 minutes,and elephants every2hours.And though cows and horses usually sleep standing up,they only dream when___30___（lie）down.

Why Doubt Is Essential To Science

The confidence people place in science is frequently based not on what it really is,but on what people would like it to be.When I asked students at the beginning of the year how they would define science,many of them replied that it is a(n)___31___way of discovering certainties about the world.But science cannot providecertainties.For example,a majority of Americans trust science as long as it does not challenge their___32___ beliefs.To the question“When science disagrees with the teachings of your religion,which one do you believe?”58percent of North Americans favor religion;33percent science;and6percent say“it depends”.

But doubt in science is a feature,not a bug.Indeed,science,when properly___33___,questions accepted facts and leads to both new knowledge and new questions—not certainty.Doubt does not___34___trust,nor does it help public understanding.So why should people trust a process that seems to require a troublesome state of uncertainty without always providing solid solutions?

As a historian of science,I would argue that it’s the responsibility of scientists and historians of science to show that the real power of science lies precisely in what is often___35___as its weakness:its drive to question and challenge a possible explanation.Indeed,the scientific approach requires changing our understanding of the natural world whenever new___36___emerges from either experimentation or observation.Scientific findings are hypotheses that contain the state of knowledge at a given moment.In the long run,many of are challenged and even overturned.Doubt might be troubling,but it stimulates us towards a better understanding,certainties,as ___37___as they may seem,in fact block the scientific process.

Scientists understand this,but in the___38___force between the public and science,there are two significant traps.One is a form of blind___39___that is,a belief in the capacity of science to solve all problems.And the other is a form of relativism borne out of a lack of___40___in the very existence of truth.

Ⅲ.Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions：For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A,B,C,and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

This era of“Industry4.0”is being driven by the same technological advances that enable the capabilities of the smartphones in our pockets.It is a mix of low-cost and high-power computers,high-speed communication and artificial intelligence.This will produce smarter robots with better sensing and communication abilities that can ___41___different tasks,and even adjust their work to meet demand without the input of humans.

In the manufacturing industry,where robots have arguably made the most headway of any division,this will mean a(n)___42___shift from centralized to decentralized cooperative production.___43___robots focused on single,fixed,high-speed operations and required a highly skilled human workforce to operate and maintain them. Industry4.0machines are flexible,cooperative and can operate more independently,which___44___removes the need for a highly skilled workforce.

For large-scale manufacturers,Industry4.0means their robots will be able to sense their environment and communicate in an industrial network that can be run and___45___remotely.Each machine will produce large amounts of data that can be___46___studied using what is known as“big data”analysis.This will help___47___ ways to improve operating performance and production quality across the whole plant,for example by better predicting when repairing is needed and automatically___48___it.

For___49___manufacturing business,Industry4.0will make it cheaper and easier to use robots.It will create machines that can be rearranged to perform___50___jobs and adjusted to work on a more diverse product range and different production volumes.This part is already beginning to benefit from robots designed to cooperate with human workers and analyse their own work to look for___51___.

While these machines are getting smarter,they are still not as smart as us.Today’s industrial artificial intelligence operates at a___52___level,which gives the appearance of human intelligence exhibited by machines,but designed by humans.

What’s coming next is known as“deep learning”.Similar to big data analysis,it involves processing large quantities of data in real time to___53___what is the best action to take.The___54___is that the machine learnsfrom the data so it can improve its decision making.A perfect example of deep learning was___55___by Google’s AlphaGo software,which taught itself to beat the world’s greatest Go players.

Directions：Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C,and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

（A）

For thousands of years,the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub.In fact,until a place has a church and a pub,it is not really considered a community worthy of a name. Traditionally,the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town,since it is where the people gather to socialize and exchange news.They are institutions at the heart of British society.After all,the word‘pub’is actually short for‘public house’.

As a result,British pubs are often old and well preserved.Many of them have become historic sites that tourists visit.One of the most famous examples is the pub in the city of Nottingham called‘Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem’，which dates back to the year AD11and is probably the oldest pub in England.It was the same year in which King Richard the First came into power,who led the First Crusade into the Holy Land,towards Jerusalem. Many British pubs have old names referring to governors,such as The King’s Head or The Queen Victoria,but of course this doesn’t mean they are only for kings and queens.Pubs have always welcomed people from all classes and parts of society.On a cold night,the pub’s landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire.There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.

That’s how it used to be,but there are worrying signs that things are beginning to change.Economic downturns, governmental financial measure,and cultural changes are causing many pubs to go out of business.People do not have a lot of spare money to spend on beer.On top of that,in2007smoking was banned in all public indoor spaces,including pubs,which may also have affected the members of customers going to pubs since then.

This decline is happening despite the fact that pubs are now allowed by law to stay open after11pm. Previously,with11pm as closing time,customers would have to drink quite quickly,meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly.This British habit of drinking is known as‘binge drinking’，and it causes long-term health problems for individuals and problems with violent crime forcommunities.The UK government is trying to find ways of discouraging binge drinking,and regularly spends money on television commercials to warn people of the problems of drinking too much.

56.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A.British pubs are preserved well mainly to attract tourists from all of the world.

B.British pubs are quite popular and accessible to people from all walks of life.

C.Most British pubs are going out of business because of economic and cultural bans.

D.Most British pubs have to shut down to adjust themselves to meet the smoking ban.

57.Why did the UK government allow pubs to stay open after11pm?

A.To stimulate customers to spend more on drinks.

B.To help British pubs survive economic downturns.

C.To encourage more sensible ways of drinking in pubs.

D.To get rid of violent crime in most part of Britain.

58.The term“binge drinking”in paragraph5would be most likely to describe____.

A.drinking too much and too quickly

B.social problems related to British pubs

C.a new long term drinking approach

D.problems caused by drinking too much

59.What will most probably be covered in the paragraph that follows the last in the passage?

A.Different methods to welcome new customers to pubs.

B.Various advertisements encouraging people to quit drinking.

C.The campaigns and strategies to support the traditional pubs.

D.Trends of migrating back from the modern wine bars to old ones.

（C）

Ellen Weiss can hardly see.David Schmitt can barely hear.Are they typical victims of aging’s cruelest blows? Not really.Weiss is actually a fresh resident doctor in family practice,age30,and Schmitt a medical student,26. They have been assigned roles,ages and particular illnesses as an innovative part of their medical training. Introduced in only a few medical centers so far,such role playing is designed to expose doctors to the pains endured by the patients.It is just one of several techniques being tried at medical schools and hospitals in an attempt to deal with the most universal complaint about doctors:lack of sympathy.“Residents are usually young and healthy,”says Dr.Stephen Brunton.“They’ve not really had a chance to understand what patients go through.”

Role-playing programs give them a crash course.At Hunterdon,students’faces are instantly aged with cornflour and make up.Next the disabilities are laid on:gloves cripple fingers,and peas inside shoes prevent walking.Then the erasatz invalids are asked to perform common tasks:purchasing medication at the drugstore, undressing for X rays,filling out a Medicare form and,most awkward,using the bathroom themselves.

At long Beach,new residents assume made-up illnesses and check into the hospital for an overnight stay.The staff treats them as they would any other patient,even sending them a bill.The entire entering class of medical students at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences are issued bedpans and told to use them. Some are even subjected to an indignity:spending most part of the first day of school as people with disabilities.Instant patients usually start out activated and joking.“But by the end of a few hours,most says,‘I’m exhausted,’”observes nurse Linda Bryant at Hunterdon.Schmitt discovered that“a major accomplishment was doing up my collar.”And,to his surprise,“I wound up hating physicians who didn’t realize how much medication would cost and how hard it was to go and pick it up.”Weiss also learnt：“I realized how little I talk to patients.I might ask them about chest pains but not‘Can you get dressed,eat OK,take your medicine?’”Jeffrey Ortiz thought he was in for a quiet rest when he was sent to the intensive care unit,suffering from“chest pains.”Instead he spent a sleepless night:“People were coming in to to labs,the man in the next bed was groaning,and the heart monitor was bleeping,which was noisy and scary.”

Any patient could have told him so,but many educators believe the direct experience of such miseries will leave an enduring sense of sympathy.Doctors have long defended taking a cool,dispassionate approach to patient care,arguing that it helps preserve objective judgment and protect against burnout.But critics disagree.“By concentrating on symptoms and lab data,we ignore a wealth of information that can affect patients’well-being,”observes Dr.Simon Auster at the Uniformed Services medical school.

63.According to the passage,the role-playing programme is designed____.

A.as an innovative part in the local community

B.as part of the play the residents have to watch

C.to help doctors understand the pains endured by the patients

D.to expose students to school facilities in a vivid way

.What does the phrase“the ersatz invalids”in paragraph3refer to?

A.Local patients who usually start out activated and joking.

B.Students who make up their faces to look aged.

C.Doctors who perform common tasks that may not occur in real hospitals.

D.Customers who purchase medications and undress for X rays with the help of students.

65.The instant patients may feel most embarrassed when they____.

A.fill in a Medicare table

B.are using the washroom on their own

C.are issued bedpans and told to try them

D.meet with someone they know well

66.What can be concluded according to the passage?

A.Residents should always take a cool approach without sympathy to patient care in their job.

B.Doctors ought to be completely independent from the symptoms and the previous lab data.

C.Doctors may ignore information influencing the patients’health only by focusing on symptoms.

D.Experience in role-playing programs won’t help the new doctors preserve objective judgement.

Section C

Directions：Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

A.Social integration is no doubt a continuous changing process.

B.Formal education is one common platform that brings together diversified groups.

C.Integration also takes place in various arts programmes which are supported by local community.

D.Concerted efforts are made to ensure there are equal opportunities for migrants regardless of their

backgrounds.

E.Societies are better off if they promote social intergration through common practices that reduce tension,

discrimination and poverty.

F.Social integration should be guided in reasonable steps and stimulated by local governments.

Social Integration—Welcoming the Newcomers

Social integration is the process through which minority groups interact,come together or are incorporated within a community.Increased social integration helps reduce conflict and tension in society,and it can help the new migrants feel more connected to their new community.How do different groups remain relatively cohesive in society?

A few countries around the world have adopted integrated frameworks for their economic,social,political and cultural policies with regard to accepting these migrants into the local society.___67___This is to allow them to achieve their full potential in life.There are still ongoing efforts to integrate different cultures and races,and the governments have encouraged their immigrants to take an active part in social,cultural,economic and political activities.

Integration takes place in neighbourhoods,work places,schools and public places where people from diverse backgrounds spend most of their time.___68___Especially among the younger children,being in the same class as their foreign counterparts will teach the local children the meaning of tolerance and empathy.Participation in sports,community engagement and volunteer work are also other possible ways that eliminate discrimination and other forms of intolerance.From participating in arts programmes to being parent volunteers in school,these platforms provide opportunities for people to interact and work towards a common cause.Sports programmes have also been used to encourage social integration.In fact,sport can strengthen social networks and promote non-violence and respect.In these ways,meaningful relationships among those of different ages,racial groups or faiths are built on the basis of common interests.

___69___Still,countries have also acknowledged that human movement across borders cannot be stopped. Instead,it should be better managed so that migration is safe,legal and beneficial for everyone.___70___Indeed the government and local communities play a key role in integrating these newcomers and empowering them to contribute to their new communities,while maintain their identities.

Ⅳ.Summary Writing

71.Directions：Read the following passage.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in no

more than60words.Use your own words as far as possible.

Seniority in Promotion Is Not Wise Business Practice

It’s not always an easy decision for companies when it comes to filling managerial spots.In the past,promoting an employee has been popularly handled by means of basic analysis of the employees’past performance and seniority.In some case,the individual’s performance has been considered more important while in others the amount

of time they have been with the company has been the deciding factor.Nevertheless,seniority is a standard that has

never been left out.However,in the contemporary business world,the importance of seniority in promotion is being

destroyed as a growing number of companies look outside of their organizations when trying to fill top managerial spots.

Unlike experienced employees who have been with the company for a long time,new people are more likely to Generate creative ideas.In rapidly changing markets,innovative and creative talents are sough by many companies

in order to adapt to the market.To meet their needs,companies have more to gain by selecting outside employees since they are more willing to try new techniques and less afraid of breaking tradition when introducing new ideas.

Thus,rather than promoting existing employees,it might be a wiser management decision to bring in outsidetalent.

An additional advantage to this new system is that it prevents employees from feeling that they only need to wait for their seniority to provide them with a promotion.Simply put,no matter how long they have been with the company,employees have to contribute diligently to the organization if they want to move up the career ladder.

As

soon as people realize that the company could just as easily bring in a new person,employees will stop judging themselves against each other because they are no longer competing against their colleagues but everyone in the entire industry.As a result,they will begin to show more effort to bring the level of their work up to what they imagine is a much higher standard.
