I used to hate old books.When I say“old books”,I don't mean classics,though.I mean
books with yellow pages,broken spines( 书 脊 )and odd wood-like smells that you need to be
careful not to break because they are already so worn down and bring you severe discomfort.One
can assume that I didn't own many old books.I had merely a few here and there that my parents
had gifted me,but nothing too special.
In thefourth grade,I was ready to explore a new world of reading,one that went beyond the
likes of children's chapter books and teenagers'topics.Just then,I found my parents'old copies of
the entire Harry Potter book series.Visually,my parents'books were my worst nightmare.I
remember thinking to myself that there was no way I would be able to read these books.However,
I eventually had to come to terms with the fact that if I wanted to read the series,I would have to
英语 第3页(共8页)
read my parents'copies.And so began the terrible journey of reading seven old books
When it was time for me to read the final copy,I was kind of a changed woman.I still strongly
disliked old books,but the plot of the entire Harry Potter series had attracted me so much that I
had almost entirely forgotten what the books looked like.By the end,I had devoted the entire
Harry Potter books to the bookshelf in my room.
Now,I love old books.While the covers are sometimes so worn down that you can barely read
the title of the book,you can understand what it's about anyway.After all,an old book is a
representation of generations of readers who have chosen to live in a specific fictional world because
the story it contains is just that good.Old books have meaning and I love how much they mean to
me now.
24.What can we learn about the author from the first two paragraphs?
A.She felt uneasy about owning old books.
B.She was on bad terms with her parents.
C.She grew fondness for reading classics.
D.She was often gifted old books by her parents.
25.How did the author feel when seeing her parents'Harry Potter series in the fourth grade?
A.Confused.
B.Scared.
C.Discouraged.
D.Astonished.
26.What does the author mean by saying“I was kind of a changed woman”in paragraph 3?
A.She started to enjoy reading fictional books.
B.She began to ignore the appearance of the books.
C.She accepted putting old books on her shelf.
D.She figured out what she truly wanted to read.

7.What is the best title of the text?
A.My Passion for Reading
B.My Connection With Parents via Old Books
C.My Encounter With the Harry Potter Series
D.My Journey With Old Books

Humans make decisions using statistical information every day.For example,we weigh the
likelihood of various factors when deciding what to bet in card games.
However,humans aren't alone in using statistical inferences in decision-making.Until now,
human cousins like monkeys and also some birds have been identified as the only animals to show
evidence of reasoning based on probability and statistics,which requires advanced mental power.
These animals have large brains relative to their body size,which is often associated with high
intelligence.
Researchers from the University of Barcelona oppugned such statements and suspected that ar
animal with a small brain relative to its body size could perform statistical reasoning as well.
Giraffes were an ideal choice.But researchers had a concern:When we choose a checkout line
at a grocery store,we typically just count the number of people in each line,not weighing the
probability.Statistical reasoning is quite distinct from basic counting.Giraffes have already
exhibited an ability to perform quantity discrimination,being able to tell a larger number of items
from a smaller number,which poses a challenge for the researchers to confirm their suspicion.
So the research team setled on a special approach where they started with a mixture of carrots
the animal desires along with zucchinis(密生西葫芦)they dislike and varied the number and
proportion (比例)of both items.
The researchers placed different proportions of carrots and zucchinis into two plastic containers
to test whether the giraffes could predict a higher likelihood of receiving a carrot.Each test
consisted of 20 trials in which a researcher selected a piece of food from each container without
英语第4页(共8页)
showing it to the giraffes.The giraffes then touched the hand they wanted to eat from,using only
the information they had from the containers.
In the first test,where one container had 20 carrots and 80 zucchinis and another had 80
carrots and 20 zucchinis,each giraffe chose the hand that had a higher probability of holding a
carrot at least 17 times.In the following two tests,the proportion of carrots and zucchinis was
changed.Yet again the giraffes chose correctly.
The combined results indicated that the researchers'idea held water.
8.What can be inferred in paragraph 2?
2
A.Statistical reasoning is unique to humans.
B.Animals with larger bodies have larger brains.
C.Large animals are smart enough to perform reasoning.
D.Brain size is positively related to intelligence.

9.What does the underlined word“oppugned”in paragraph 3 probably mean?
B.Questioned. C.Explained. D.Applauded.
A.Declared.
30.Why did the research team introduce a special approach to the study?
A.To test the giraffes'ability to perform basic counting.
B.To determine whether giraffes prefer carrots or zucchinis.
C.To rule out the effect of giraffes'quantity discrimination.
D.To observe the giraffes'behavior in different situations.
31.What do the test results show?
A.Giraffes are capable of statistical reasoning.
B.Giraffes'sense of proportion is relatively limited.
C.Giraffes rely on visual information to make food choices.
D.Giraffes'food preferences can be changed through training.

Many philosophers and psychologists have argued that empathy ( 共 情 ) is a natural
characteristic,hard-wired into our genes and brains.The reasoning goes that each of us has a
level”of empathy and—like our adult height—we're stuck there for life.This is all well and good
“
if you're already empathetic,but also means that if you struggle with empathy,you'll never
improve no matter how hard you try.
Thankfully,this view is incomplete.Through the right practices,such as diverse friendships
and even fiction reading,we can grow our empathy on purpose.Empathy is something like a
muscle:left unused,it weakens;put to work,it grows.
No emotion is always useful,and that goes for empathy as well.This is especially true for
nurses,doctors and other caregivers.These individuals are driven to their work by a deep desire to
help others.Patients of empathetic doctors are more satisfied with their care.However,when
healthcare professionals care too much,they are at high risk of burnout,tiredness and depression
from over-empathizing with others'suffering.
Some psychologists,including myself,are now exploring how people in these professions
might empathize in more sustainable ways.For example,empathetic concern—feeling for
someone—is distant from emotional empathy—feeling as someone else does.If they can develop
concern instead,for example,they can care without falling apart.
In another set of studies conducted with Carol Dweck,a Stanford professor of psychology,we
found that merely believing empathy is a skill that can be developed inspired people to try harder at
it.For instance,people who were encouraged to have a“growth mindset”around empathy,as
compared to a fixed mindset,spent more time listening to the suffering of someone of another race
and more energy towards trying to understand the opinions of someone from a different part of the
political divide.
