21．（6分） Here's a list of books I'm looking forward to this fall season. Not all of them will rise to the level of the advertisement, but it's an abundant crop.
"Home After Dark" by David Small (Liveright, Sept. 11 )
In 2009, Small published a celebrated graphic memoir (回忆录) called"Stitches". Now the Caldecott Medal winner is back with a graphic novel about a motherless 13-year-old boy brought up in an unhappy home in California. This is a tale told in few words and many striking images. On Sept. 11 at 3p.m., Small will be at Amazonbooks at Union Market. More information at www.
"Waiting for Eden" by Elliot Ackerman (Knopf, Sept. 25)
This brief novel is related by a dead soldier who is watching over a horribly burned partner in a Texas hospital. That sounds embarrassingly emotional, but Ackerman, who served in a Navy in Iraq and Afghanistan, is one of the best soldier-writers of his generation. More information at www. amazon. com/military-essay.
"All You Can Ever Know" by Nicole Chung (Catapult, Oct. 2)
Chung, the editor of the literary magazine Catapult, was adopted as a baby by a white family in Oregon. In this memoir, she writes about her childhood, her Asian American identity and her search for the Korean parents who gave her up. More information at www. amazon. com/politics-prose.
"Unsheltered" by Barbara Kingsolver (Harper, Oct. 16)
Alternating between past and present, this novel tells the story of a woman investigating a late-19th-century science teacher who was caught up in the controversy over Darwinism.

23．（8分）Everyone smiles in the same language.But not everyone smiles in the same medium,and that might be hurting us.
That's according to a new study from researchers at the University of Haifa and Ben-Gurion University,both in Israel,and the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands.Inadvertently timed to the recent release of “The Emoji Movie,”scientists decided to study whether using smile emojis in text messages between work colleagues caused the same warm feelings as a face-to-face interaction that includes a smile.
The results?For the first time,science was able to confirm that a smile emoji does not conjure those same feelings.Quite the opposite,in fact: using a smile emoji in conversation actually decreases perception of the colleague's competence and inserts a level of distance into the relationship.
It's a phenomenon study leader Arik Cheshin dubbed "virtual first-impression management."He and his colleagues,including co-leader Ella Glikson,conducted several experiments analyzing the reactions to text messages that included smile emojis versus messages that don't.They also measured these same interactions in social settings and found that the emojis actually improved perception.
"I believe there is a greater gap in what the sender is hoping to convey and what the receiver interprets," Cheshin,a professor,said."This intention-interpretation gap can be damaging."
In addition,Cheshin and colleagues found that the effects of smiley use on social perceptions occur regardless of the expresser's perceived gender.
So what's the takeaway here “I don't think that emoticons and emojis replace actual emotion,”Cheshin told us. "They are just different.The emotions are there and will always be when there are humans involved."
Before picking an emoji that fits your mood at the moment,it's better to just use words at least when you're at work.Or,better yet,just show up and talk face-to-face.You know,like the good old days.
1、What is found in the study by Arik?
A．Work colleagues use smile emojis more.
B．A smile emoji leads to warm feelings.
C．Smile emojis keep colleagues at a distance.
D．Smiley use works better than face-to-face interaction.
2、According to Cheshin,the emojis senders may not know______.
A．how much virtual impression it leaves
B．how it changes social settings
C．how it has improved perception
D．how the receiver will understand it
3、What is the writer's attitude towards emojis at work?
A．Cautious. B．Positive.
C．Disapproving. D．Indifferent.
4、What is the best title for the text?
A．Words mean much more than your smile emojis.
B．Your smile emojis won't replace your actual smile.
C．Smiling is a universal language in any communication.
D．Misunderstanding may arise from smile emojis.
24．（8分）We can achieve knowledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.
We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive learning, it’s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.
Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay(传闻) and rumor.
Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn’t show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are compared. Typically, the original message has changed.
That’s what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know.
This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be restated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.
1、According to the passage, active learning may occur in ________.
A．reading scientific journals
B．listening to the teacher in class
C．doing a chemical experiment
D．watching news programmes on TV
2、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．Classroom. B．Newspapers.
C．Active learning. D．Passive learning.
3、The game Rumor is mentioned in Paragraph 4 in order to tell readers that ________.
A．playing games can make people more active
B．people tend to like telling lies when playing games
C．a message may be changed when being passed on
D．people may have problems with their sense of hearing
4、What can be inferred from the text?
A．Scholars and authors can’t be trusted.
B．Passive learning may not be reliable.
C．People like spreading rumors in daily life.
D．Active learning is more Important than passive learning.
25．（10分）“Years ago when I was at the Grand Canyon, I remembered someone coming up to the canyon’s edge, taking a shot with a camera and then walking away, like ‘got it – done’, barely even glancing at the magnificent scene in front of him,” Linda Henkel, a scientist at Fairfield University, US told Live Science.
Henkel was surprised by how obsessed (痴迷的) people are with taking pictures these days - before dinner, during friends’ birthday parties, on museum tours and so on.
They keep taking pictures because they think that it helps record the moment, but as Henkel’s latest study has just found out, this obsession may prevent their brains remembering what actually happened, reported The Guardian.
In her study, Henkel led a group of college students around a museum and asked them to simply observe 15 objects and photograph 15 others. The next day the students’ memory of the tour was tested, and the results showed that they were less accurate in recognizing the objects and they remembered fewer details about them if they photographed them.
‘‘When people rely on technology to remember them — counting on the camera to record the event and thus not needing to attend to it fully themselves, it can have a negative impact on how well they remember their experiences,” Henkel explained.
But there is also an exception: if students zoomed in to photograph part of an object, their memory actually improved, and those who foc
