B
Psycholinguistics is a field at the intersection(交叉) of psychology and linguistics, and one if
its recent discoveries is that the languages we speak influence our eye movements. For example,
English speakers who hear candle often look at a candy because the two words share their first
syllable. Research with speakers of different languages revealed that bilingual speakers not only
look at words that share sounds in one language but also at words that share sounds across their two
languages. When RussianEnglish bilinguals hear the English word marker, they also look at a
stamp, because the Russian word for stamp is marka.
Even more surprising, speakers of different languages differ in their patterns of eye
movements when no language is used at all. In a simple visual search task in which people had to
find a previously seen object among other objects, their eyes moved differently depending on what
languages they knew. For example, when looking for a clock, English speakers also looked at a
cloud. Spanish speakers, on the other hand, when looking for the same clock, looked at a present,
because the Spanish names for clock and present—reloj and regalo—overlap at their onset(开始).
The story doesn't end there. Not only do the words we hear activate other, similarsounding
words—and not only do we look at objects whose names share sounds or letters even when no
language is heard—but the translations of those names in other languages become activated as well
in speakers of more than one language. For example, when SpanishEnglish bilinguals hear the
word duck in English, they also look at a shovel, because the translations of duck and shovel—pato
and pala, respectively—overlap in Spanish.
Because of the way our brain organizes and processes linguistic and nonlinguistic information,
a single word can set off a domino effect(多米诺效应) that cascades(像洪水般倾泻)throughout the
cognitive system. And this interactivity and coactivation is not limited to spoken languages.
Bilinguals of spoken and signed languages show coactivation as well. For example, bilinguals who
know American Sign Language and English look at cheese when they hear the English word paper
because cheese and paper share three of the four sign components in ASL(hand shape, location and
orientation but not motion).
What do findings like these tell us? Not only is the language system thoroughly interactive
with a high degree of coactivation across words and concepts, but it also impacts our processing in
other areas such as vision, attention and cognitive control. As we go about our everyday lives, how
our eyes move, what we look at and what we pay attention to are influenced in direct and
measurable ways by the languages we speak.
The implications of these findings for applied settings range from consumer behavior(what we
look at in a store) to the military(visual search in complex scenes) and art(what our eyes are drawn
to). In other words, it is safe to say that the language you speak influences how you see the world
not only figuratively( 比 喻 地 ) but also quite literally, down to the mechanics of your eye
movements.
( )58. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. Languages we know determine our eye movements.7
B. The words we hear remind us of similar words.
C. We look at objects even if no language is heard.
D. Translations of words in other languages can be activated.
( )59. According to Paragraph 4, the “domino effect” is caused by ________.
A. American Sign Language B. brain processes
C. oral languages D. coactivation
( )60. What can we learn from these findings?
A. Words are closely related to concepts in language system.
B. The combination of words and concepts activates language system.
C. The language we speak influences what we pay attention to.
D. What we speak in everyday lives controls how our eyes move.
C
Like most robots, social robots use artificial intelligence to decide how to act on information
received through cameras and other sensors. The ability to respond in ways that seem lifelike has
been informed by research into such issues as how perceptions(知觉) form, what constitutes social
and emotional intelligence, and how people can infer others' thoughts and feelings. Advances in AI
have enabled designers to translate such psychological and neuroscientific insights into algorithms
that allow robots to recognize voices, faces and emotions; interpret speech and gestures; respond
appropriately to complex verbal and nonverbal cues; make eye contact; speak conversationally; and
adapt to people's needs by learning from feedback, rewards and criticisms.
A 47inch humanoid(类人物) called Pepper(from SoftBank Robotics) recognizes faces and
basic human emotions and engages in conversations via a touch screen in its “chest”. About 15,000
Peppers worldwide perform such services as hotel checkins, airport customer service, shopping
assistance and fastfood checkout. Temi(from Temi USA) and Loomo(Segway Robotics) are the
next generation of personal assistants—like Amazon Echo and Google Home but mobile, providing
a new level of functionality. Loomo, for instance, is not only a companion but can also transform
on command into a scooter(小型摩托车) for transport.
Social robots have particular appeal for assisting the world's growing elderly population. The
PARO Therapeutic Robot(developed by Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science
and Technology), which looks like a seal, soft and cute, is meant to stimulate and reduce stress for
those with Alzheimer's disease and other patients in care facilities: it responds to its name by
moving its head, and it cries for petting. Mabu(Catalia Health) engages patients, particularly the
elderly, as a wellness aide, reminding them to take walks and medication and to call family
members. Social robots are also gaining popularity with consumers as toys. Early attempts to
include social behavior in toys, such as Hasbro's Baby Alive and Sony's AIBO robotic dog, had
limited success. But both are resurging(复活), and the most recent version of AIBO has advanced
voice and gesture recognition, can be taught tricks and develops new behaviors based on previous
interactions.
Worldwide sales of consumer robots reached an estimated $5.6 billion in 2018, and the market
is expected to grow to $19 billion by the end of 2025, with more than 65 million robots sold a year.
This trend may seem surprising given that multiple wellfunded consumer robot companies, such as
Jibo and Anki, have failed. But a wave of robots is lining up to take the place of old robots,
including BUDDY(Blue Frog Robotics), a bigeyed mobile device that plays games in addition to
acting as a personal assistant and providing home automation and security.8
( )61. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?
A. How social robots receive information.
B. What research has been conducted about social robots.
C. Why social robots can respond in lifelike ways.
D. How designers translate insights into social robots.
( )62. Examples are used in Paragraph 2 to show that social robots are ________.
A. filling an expanding variety of roles B. getting higher intelligence
C. interacting with people D. learning to respond in lifelike ways
( )63. According to the passage we know that ________.
A. social robots can have various forms and appearances
B. PARO can interact with people by moving its head like a dog
C. the most recent version of AIBO has achieved as great success as before
D. the sales of consumer robots have been increasing as ever expected
( )64. What is the best title for the passage?
A. More companies will invest on social robots.
B. Social robots play nicely with human beings.
C. Social robots have great effects on elder people's life.
D. Artificial intelligence enables social robots to make decisions.

My younger daughter, age 5, made a failed attempt during a recent schoolnight bedtime
routine. In retaliation(报复) for my insistence that she actually stay in bed, she uttered the classic
pintsized revolutionary cry: “You're not in charge of me!”
“ I am, actually ,” I replied as I gently guided her back into bed. “I am in charge of
keeping you safe and also helping you thrive(茁壮成长), which means making sure you get a good
night's sleep and a whole lot more.”
I knew what I meant by “ more ” even if she didn't. I made a personal, unwritten
covenant(契约) with my daughters, and even society, to do my part to raise two happy, virtuous,
inspirational adults. And that requires teaching a good deal of life wisdom, role modeling and, at
times, imposing behavior.
We are the boss. We can also be our kids' friend, sometimes. And we are always their teacher
and coach. And don't forget lifeguard.
But we're in charge, even if we don't want to be. And it seems a lot of parents don't want to be.
I've noticed that for various reasons (trying to be cool/nice/laid back, maybe laziness, maybe
in opposition to being raised with too many rules themselves), many parents let their children call
too many shots. I'm talking about screen time, bedtime, purchases, meal options and all the rest of
it.
Letting kids decide these matters usually leads to poor outcomes for the kids themselves. A
permissive parenting style leads to impulsive behavior, egocentrism(唯我主义) and poor social
skills, according to Diana Baumrind, a developmental psychologist at the University of California,
Berkeley.
Baumrind, one of the leading researchers on this topic, described the ideal parenting style as
“authoritative”, neither too permissive nor too controlling. An authoritative parent has clear
rules and high expectations while being warm and supportive and valuing independence. If we can
do that for our children, her research showed, they will have greater selfesteem, social skills and 9
academic performance.
The ideal, in other words, is a Buddhist Middle Way where we are in control but foster(培养)
independence.
But independence is not the same as giving them what their little id(本我) brains want all the
time. Children may seem happy about getting their way, but it's actually an insecure world for them
to inhabit where adults don't seem fully in charge.
Young kids' brains are not up to the task of making the best decisions anyway. From age 2
until 7, according to the pioneering child developmental psychologist Jean Piaget, a child naturally
engages in egocentrism and “magical thinking”—believing that they can affect the world with
their thoughts—but not critical thinking. From about age 8 to 11, kids tend to actively seek rules,
limits and boundaries—but from parents and teachers, not from themselves; they want adults to
draw the lines they can safely color in.
Typically, after age 11, critical thinking emerges. Real involvement in rules and limits can
effectively begin then, but even teenagers need the assurance that you will always steer them in the
right directions.
We also know that real life is full of rules—legal, societal, ethical (moral) or just
politeness—and either we teach them or they will eventually be set straight in lessloving
environments such as the playground, the principal's office, in front of a judge or in a professional
boss' office.
And being in charge doesn't mean we need to micromanage behavior or be unkind. We should
build in plenty of personal freedom and remain motivated by deep love and affection. But we must
also be on top it, guiding them toward success.
Be a great boss to your kids. Mentor them. Give them opportunities to develop and shine.
Always have their backs. Never fire them. Show them who's boss in the most caring of ways.
( )65. Many parents let their children call too many shots probably because ________.
A. they are cool and indifferent to their children
B. they want children to live with fewer rules
C. they are busy with meal options and so on
D. they believe it will lead to good outcomes
( )66. The psychologist Baumrind believes that ________.
A. children are definitely to be ruined by permissive parenting style
B. rules are absolutely prior to anything in authoritative parenting
C. authoritative parents have to let children live independently
D. an ideal way means giving children controlled independence
( )67. From age 2 to 11, children usually ________.
A. do not have the ability to make decisions yet
B. have no idea of rules, limits or boundaries at all
C. need parents and teachers to draw lines for them
D. know how to steer themselves in right directions
( )68. To be a great boss to his/her children, a parent needs to ________.
A. micromanage everything or be unkind sometimes
B. guide children to success on the basis of deep love
C. win as many opportunities as possible to shine
D. let children know “who is the boss” in every way10
( )69. What is the author's attitude towards parent's being in charge of children?
A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Ambiguous. D. Indifferent.
( )70. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Ideal parents are those neither too permissive nor too controlling.
B. Children under age 11 should not be allowed to make decisions.
C. Psychologists show children's selfesteem is from independence.
D. Adults are responsible to teach children all the rules in real life.

The Age of Envy: How to Be Happy When Everyone Else's Life Looks Perfect
We live in the age of envy. Career envy, kitchen envy, children envy, food envy, upper arm
envy, holiday envy. You name it, there's an envy for it. Human beings have always felt what
Aristotle defined in the 4th century BC as pain at the sight of another's good fortune, stirred by the
feeling of “those who have what we ought to have”.
But with social media, says Ethan Kross, professor of psychology at the University of
Michigan, “ envy is being taken to an extreme.” We are constantly bombarded by
“photoshopped lives,” he says, “and that exerts a toll on us the likes of which we have never
experienced in the history of our species.”
Clinical psychological Rachel Andrew says she is seeing more and more envy in her
consulting room, from people who “ can't achieve the lifestyle they want but which they see
others have. ” Our use of platforms including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat, she
says, amplifies (放大)this deeply disturbing psychological discord(失调), “I think what social
media has done is make everyone accessible for comparison ,” she explains. “ In the past,
people might have just envied their neighbors, but now we can compare ourselves with everyone
across the world.”
And those comparisons are now much less realistic. Andrew has observed among her patients
that knowing they are looking at an edited version of reality is no defense against the emotional
force of envy. “What I notice is that most of us can intellectualize what we see on social media
platforms—we know that these images and narratives that are presented aren't real, we can talk
about it and rationalize it—but on an emotional level, it's still pushing buttons. If those images or
narratives tap into what we aspire to, but what we don't have, then it becomes very powerful.”
According to Dryden, a cognitive behavioral therapist, when it comes to the kind of envy
inspired by social media, there are two factors that make a person more vulnerable (易受伤害的):
low selfesteem and deprivation intolerance, which describes the experience of being unable to bear
not getting what you want. To overcome this, he says, think about what you would teach a child.
The aim is to develop a philosophy, a way of being in the world, which allows you to recognize
when someone else has something that you want but don't have, and also to recognize that you can
survive without it, and that not having it does not make you less worthy or less of a person.
We could also try to change the way we habitually use social media. Kross explains that most
the time, people use Facebook passively and just idly, lazily reading instead of posting, messaging
or commenting. “That is interesting when you realize it is the passive usage that is supposed to be
more harmful than the active. The links between passive usage and feeling worse are very 11
robust—we have huge data sets involving tens of thousands of people,” he says. While it is less
clear how active usage affects wellbeing, there does seem to be a small positive link, he explains,
between using Facebook to connect with others and feeling better.
Dryden differentiates between unhealthy envy and its healthy forms, which, he says, “can be
creative.” Just as hunger tells us we need to eat, the feeling of envy, if we can listen to it in the
right way, could show us what is missing from our lives that really matters to us, Kross explains.
Andrew says, “ It is about naming it as an emotion, knowing how it feels, and then not
interpreting it as a positive or a negative, but trying to understand what it is telling you that you
want. If that is achievable, you could take proper steps towards achieving it. But at the same time,
ask yourself, what would be good enough?”

social influencers, or Internet celebrities( 名 人 ), to advertise certain brands and products. The
number of influencers and their fans is increasing. In 2018, sales based on live streaming
marketing amounted to more than 100 billion yuan($14.3 billion), up by almost 400 percent year on
year. Influencer marketing is making itself a force that can't be ignored.
However, a growing number of cases of influencers making fools of themselves while
advertising products are shedding light on a pressing issue. While earning huge profits, some 12
influencers are turning a blind eye to the quality of the products they are pitching. For example, an
online celebrity, who once sold 15,000 lipsticks within five minutes and was dubbed “the king of
lipsticks ”, met his Waterloo in a recent live stream when promoting a non stick pan. The
audience could see that the fried egg was firmly sticking to the pan. This and other incidents of
Internet celebrity marketing have sparked heated discussions online and in many media outlets.
Some people believe that in the era of the Internet celebrity and fan economy, influencer
marketing is actually not to blame, but there must be a bottom line for what can and cannot be
done. Some others view this incident and the sensation it has caused as an opportunity for this
business to be standardized.

One possible version:
The boom of online platforms give birth to the surging influencer marketing. However, some
incidents where influencers cheat audience trigger heated discussions, on which people's views
vary from person to person.
In contemporary society, it's common that Internet celebrities act as representatives of
companies to promote products, which is an unavoidable trend. Nevertheless, there exist some
problems. In the first place, some influencers have no sufficient knowledge about the products, thus
misleading the customers. What's worse, certain influencers are indifferent to the quality of the
products for the sake of high profits.
From my point of view, it is high time that measures were taken to eliminate the problems. To
begin with, laws should be worked out to regulate influencers' advertising and punish those
practising fraud severely. On the other hand, influencers themselves ought to be honest with the
public. Only when we standardize the business can we enjoy a healthier market.

W: Why were you on the wrong side of the street, anyway?

W: You've worked abroad, yes?
M: Yes, I worked in Mexico, but only for two years. Last year, I went to Germany, but now
I'm back in Spain.

W: I hear you've bought a new car.
M: You are so wellinformed. That's true.14

M: What do you think of Peter?
W: He needs a few lessons in fashion. That shirt he wears all the time looks like a tablecloth.

M: What's that you're reading, Sue?
W: It's an invitation to a party.
M: A party? Great! Whose party is it?
W: It's Sarah Peter's. You remember her from my office, don't you?
M: Sarah Peter? Yes, I think so.
W: She's just had a baby! The party is in July.
M: July? I hope it's not on the 2nd. I've got a meeting to attend then.
W: No, don't worry. It's on Saturday the 4th. The party is on Millfield Road.

M: Hello, Jenny. My wife and I are going out of town this weekend, and I was wondering if
you could take care of my dog while we're gone.
W: I think I can.
M: Great. Just feed him a can of dog food a day, and make sure he has plenty of water in his
dish. And then, take him out for a walk around the block.
W: Well, how about just throwing ball over the fence to give him some exercise? Wouldn't
that work?
M: Perhaps it will work. Besides, he likes to watch the 3: 00 soap opera on Channel 4, please
turn the TV on by then. And don't forget to brush his teeth after you give some food around 4: 00
o'clock in the afternoon.
W: Man, I'm afraid your dog is too dear.

M: It is really hard to understand this speaker.
W: You're right. It's not because he has an accent like some of the other speakers from another
country but because he is speaking in such a low voice. Do you think it would be rude to ask him to
turn his microphone up a little?
M: I don't think he's wearing one, or he has turned it off.
W: That's crazy. There must be four hundred people here.
M: It has turned into a waste of time here. Maybe we should leave and try to find another
lecture.
W: I can't do that. I've come here specifically to hear this guy's speech. I think I'll just go to
him at the end of the speech and try to ask him some questions.
M: Good idea. Would you mind if I followed you up there?
W: No problem.

W: Yes, he did. We had a meeting about it last week. He told me to hand over my other work
to Karen and to put a team together for the project next month.15
M: Have you decided who you would like to do the field work for your team?
W: I haven't made any decisions about that. But I have a few different people in mind. Why?
M: Oh, I just wanted to let you know that I could do that. I grew up near Edmonson, and I
know the area pretty well.
W: Have you been fighting with Paul again? He is your team leader, and you should try to get
along well with him.
M: Oh, no. Paul and I get along quite well with each other. I'm just saying that I would be
happy to move to your team if you want. I'm sure I will be fit for the job and quite helpful.
W: Well, I'll have a talk with Richie and Paul tomorrow. I had meant to call them yesterday
anyway.
M: Um...I see. But I really want to join your team.
W: OK, we'll consider your application seriously.
