Few people are aware that Waterloo Bridge, crossed by thousands of daily
commuters (上班族) and celebrated as a London landmark, was mainly built by a
female workforce.
There are no written or photographic records of the women who built the bridge
since the construction company that built it closed in the 1980s and with it went all
the records. What’s left is anecdotal evidence, kept alive by the tourist boat captains
who have called it the Ladies’ Bridge.
During the Second World War, with the majority of the active male labor force
away at the front, women increasingly took on traditionally male roles. By 1944,
25,000 women were working in the construction industry, carrying out back-breaking
tasks. These women were permitted to carry out this exhausting and dangerous work
on the basis that it would only be temporary and that their pay would be lower than
that of men. So the trend in women working in construction and engineering did not
continue after the war.
September sees a series of events celebrating the unknown work of the large
female workforce. Musician Claudia Molitor has created a 45-minute musical entitled
"the Singing Bridge", which runs at Somerset House from 9 to 25 September. In late
September, the "Light up the Ladies’ Bridge" event sees the National Theatre’ s fly
tower lit up by large scale photographic projections ( 投 影 ) of female construction
workers working in construction during World War Ⅱ.
Let’s all celebrate the women who have helped to build the cities in which we
live.
24. Why do few people know about the builders of Waterloo Bridge?
A. The records of their work have been lost.
B. Female workers received little attention.
C. The construction took place long ago.
D. Few people know about the bridge.
25. Why did London women do the construction work?
A. It was a tradition in London.
B. They wanted to get a steady job.
C. The company offered them better pay.
D. Most men had gone to the battlefield.
26. What’s the fourth paragraph mainly about?
A. The influence of the bridge on art.
B. A musician’s contribution to the bridge.C. The events in honor of the bridge builders.
D. Women’ s work during the Second World War.
27. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. A New London Landmark
B. A Hidden Treasure in London
C. The Story Behind the Ladies’ Bridge
D. Female Workers on the Rise

be fined a total of 300 yuan ($42.86) and have two points deducted in Shenzhen of

inside cars will also be regarded as violations of traffic rules and liable for punishment,
according to a statement released by Shenzhen traffic police on Friday.

become one of the major reasons for traffic accidents in the southern metropolis(大都
会) in recent years, the statement added.
According to statistics revealed by Shenzhen traffic police department, a total of
316 drivers were killed in traffic accidents in 2018. Nearly one-third were killed in
accidents caused by drivers using mobile phones and other electronic devices while
driving.
Shenzhen traffic police urged drivers to use Bluetooth hands-free systems or

Many people formulate a strategy for the game rock, paper, scissors (RPS),
which they believe is sure to beat the competition. But a new study reveals players
actually don't stick to a plan, rather they become irrational ( 不 理 智 的 ) when
making their next move - including using the same item that was once a winner.
Researchers suggest that if you want to be victorious, choose paper because most
people tend to go for rock. Even if participants had a set plan for their next move,
their emotions would make the act irrational. Each of the three items carries equal
status, which means the only rational method is to use each one an equal number of
times – any other approach is irrational, said researchers.
The study revealed that participants followed a “win-stay, lose-shift” strategy in
how they played the game, which means when they won a round they kept repeating
their winning item. It wasn't until they lost did they change their action. Although the
optimal strategy is to pick one of the three equally and at random, most people tended
to overuse rock.
“Rock, paper, scissors (RPS) is a game where predictions of human rational
decision-making can be compared with actual performance,” reads the study
published in the journal Scientific Reports. “Playing a computerized opponent
adopting a mixed-strategy equilibrium, participants revealed a non-significant
tendency to over-select rock.”
“It's worrying that people tended to make more irrational decisions following a
loss,” said Dr. Ben Dyson, lecturer in Psychology at the University of Sussex. “This
could have more serious implications in higher-stake scenes where people are
competing to defeat one another – in economics or politics, for example. These
irrational decisions are driven by an emotional reaction to a negative outcome and
leaves people vulnerable to a smart opponent.”
“Emotion might have some distracting effect that deteriorates (恶化) the quality
of our thought. If we can learn to separate emotion from outcome, like successful
Poker players, we might be able to mitigate(减轻) this risk.”
32. According to the researchers, how do many people usually play the game RPS?
A. They always go for paper.
B. They form a wise strategy and stick to it.
C. They pick one of the three equally and randomly.
D. They use the same item as their next move after winning a round.
33. What’s Dr. Ben Dyson’s attitude towards people’s overusing rock in the game
RPS?
A. Ambiguous. B. Concerned. C. Puzzled. D. Indifferent.
34. What does the underlined word "vulnerable" in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Easily hurt. B. Deeply devoted.
C. Widely spread. D. Absolutely accustomed.
35. What will probably be discussed following the last paragraph?
A. Definition of the “win-stay, lose-shift” strategy.
B. Disadvantages of the tendency to over-select rock.
C. Ways to separate emotion from outcome. D. Reasons for the popularity of the game RPS.

书面表达范文
Dear Mr Huang,
I’m so privileged to have the opportunity to learn how to sing a song from you in our
campus activity named Song of the Week.
The first time you taught us, I was deeply impressed by your fascinating voice and
abundant emotions you devoted to your singing. It seems as if I were in the concert of
a real superstar. What’s more appealing to me is your unique but effective teaching
method, through which I have gradually mastered how to adjust my breath and
perform a song in a much easier way.
Expressing a keen interest in music, I spend most of my spare time listening to
different types of songs. My Future is not a Dream is an inspiring song that I like most.
I’d appreciate it if you could satisfy my expectation and present this song to us next
time.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours
Li Hua
