As kids, we have relied on it to settle disagreements with friends from which channel to watch to who gets to eat the last ice cream all because we think the results are pletely random.But are they?Wang Zhijian, PhD, a professor at Zhejiang University, believes that there is a regulation behind this simple game. So, he gathered 360 students, divided them into groups of six and had each group play 300 rounds of rock-paper-scissors, reported USA Today.After the first results, Wang thought he was wrong, because players chose each of the three moves about one-third of the time, suggesting that the game is random after all. However, Wang later noticed a surprising regulation of behavior in the data.When players won a round, they usually stuck to the same choice. But when they lost, they tended to change to a more powerful move. For example, if Player A had just thrown down scissors to beat Player Bs paper, Player A was more likely to throw down scissors again while Player B was likely to choose rock, since rock beats scissors.According to Wang, this might be a function that is called “conditional response”. So, for the next step of his study, as he told BBC, Wang plans to do some research about how human brains make quick decisions when peting.Now that youve learned how to predict the moves of your opponent (对手), youll have an advantage next time you play rock-paper-scissors with your friends. But there is one problem: make sure they havent read about Wangs study, or your advantage will disappear.21. The underlined word “random” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _.A. equal B. amusing C. strange D. unpredictable22. Which of the following is TRUE about Wang Zhijian and his study?A. He found a new game theory called “conditional response”.B. He asked 360 students to play a total of 300 rounds of rock-paper-scissors.C. By studying the first few results, he discovered the pattern behind the game.D. His study suggests that the belief that rock-paper-scissors game is random is wrong.23. According to the study, if player A has just used rock to beat player Bs scissors, then A is more likely to choose _ and B is more likely to choose _.A. rock; paper B. rock; scissors C. scissors; rock D. paper; scissors24. What will Wang study about rock-paper-scissors in the future, according to the article?A. The functions related to the game that are planted into our brains.B. How human brains make quick decisions when peting in the game.C. The psychology behind the players who always win the game.D. How to improve players ability to predict opponents moves.B“BAKG!” the door caused a reverberation(回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and I on the other side. We were both in great anger. Never set foot in this house again! stormed father. With tearswelling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I walked aimlessly.A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.But now . I dont know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. He always puts his opinions of behavior on me. Whenever I do something wrong, he never admits it. We are just like two people ing from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me pany. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that all the lights still on.I thought to myself: Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me? In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps. I cant stand his outrageous(蛮横的)words: “ I cant throw you away, let alone these old papers?”All the lights were off except fathers.Dad was always like this. Maybe he didnt know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret. After an argument he has the habit of creeping up in my sleep and then tucking me underneath the covers.This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has bee his second nature.The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe With the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love-its second to none.25. Decide which is the best order of the following according to what happened in the passage. a. I opened the door and entered the house b. Sadly I ran out into the street c. I reached the place where I lived and saw my house still brightly lit. d. I thought of my fathers kindness towards me e. I walked about in the street without any aimA. b, e, d, c, a B. b, e, c, d, a C. b, e, a, c, d D. b, e , c, a, d26. What made the writer think of his childhood? A. The sight of the street lights B. The sight of the empty street C. The sight of a father with a child in his arms D. The sight of light in his own house27. Why do you think the father often shouts at his son? A. perhaps the father is getting older and older B. perhaps the son has already grown up C. perhaps they never agree with each other D. perhaps the father has got used to doing that28. What conclusion can you e to after reading the passage? A. The father treats his son in an unfair way B. The father is actually kind to his son C. The father is neither kind nor cruel to his son D. The father is always finding fault with his sonCI found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eight grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didnt understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk. Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsiblefor your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things. Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girls test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadnt talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.29. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because _ . A. she had not brought a pen with her B. she had lost her own on her way to school C. there was something wrong with her own D. her own had been taken away by someone30. The thing(s) emphasized in her talk was(were) _ . A. honesty B. sense of duty C. seriousness D. all of the above31. The boy knew everything_. A. the moment he was asked to stay behind B. when the teacher started talking about honesty C. only some time later D. when he was walking out of the roomDMany of us mistakenly believe that its wrong to think we have any good qualities. We may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities, thinking that self criticism is the key to improving our performance. However, a constant focus on our supposed shortings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. How can we believe that others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed（有缺陷）?If someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with youThe person who doesnt like you might be fearful, or shallow, or busy or shyPerhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time.Dont take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws are bigger than your good qualities. In fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. For all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least many factors that will work in your favor with someone else.You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life. There are many people who dont mind your extra pounds. You may drive a shabby car, but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend. There are people out there looking for loyalty, or fun, or sweetness, or wisdom, and the package it es in is not important. If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends. You can decide to feel inferior（自卑） because you dont have much money and you dontdrive a nice car. You can believe that this is the reason that you dont have many friends in your life. On the other hand, if you are very wealthy you may be suspicious that everyone is after your money and that nobody really likes you as a person. The point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe its the reason you do not have friends and cannot make any. 32. According to the author _ plays an important role in making friendsA. admitting your shortings B. self criticism C. modesty D. confidence33. If you are not liked by a person, _A. you should find the reason in yourselfB. youd better talk with the person face to faceC. you may not be the one to be blamedD. you and that person misunderstand each other34. We can learn from the third paragraph that _ A. your good qualities may turn out to be your flawsB. your weakness may also be your strengths in some wayC. your negative qualities cause a person to reject youD. youll have few friends if your flaws are bigger than your good qualities35. Which of the following is true according to the author?A. It is important to lose weightB. It is easier for a wealthy person to make friendsC. Inner qualities are more important than physical appearanceD. If you are not beautiful enough, try to improve your physical beauty第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Seven ways to find out what you really want in lifeBe good to yourselfYou cant pinpoint(准确指出) exactly what you want in life .Youre constantly sacrificing（牺牲） your time and dreams for other people. 36 Ask yourself: if you werent tied down by your job, family, or anything else, then what would you be doing right now? Regret nothingTo be good to yourself is not selfish. Its your life. Its time for you to live it exactly the way you want to. If you constantly regret things you did or didnt do in the past, then you wont be able to move forward. 37 Figure out what you needSometimes its hard to figure out what you need. Sit down and think about what you need most. The freedom to express yourself? Love? Financial security? Something else? If it helps, you can make a list. Also think about the kind of legacy(遗产) you want to leave behind. 38 You can fly only by pushing back against something you dont want. Figure out what upsets you, and be specific about it. Dont just say that you hate your office job. Pinpoint exactly why you hate it. Could it be your strict boss? Your workload? Your meaningless job title? Or all of the above?Determine what makes you truly happyTheres no life to waste if youre happy with living it. 39 Being around children? Is it traveling? Owning a successful business? Financial freedom? Once you pinpoint the one thing that makes you happy the most, youll have a pretty clear idea of what you should struggle hard to get in your life. Let people around you know what youre trying to achieve. Dont keep your goals and desires to yourself. Voice it all out! If you tell people what youre trying to acplish, they will most likely support you and give you new ideas. Sometimes mother does know best!Stay positiveLife doesnt always go how you want it. Dont feel discouraged as your plans stray(偏离). Take control. Instead of being anxious, try your best to advance with the changes. You will get there someday. 40 Youre just taking a little detour(绕道).
