“Don’t get sick in July!”
This is a common concern in teaching hospitals in the U.S. It’s driven by academic
calendar: July is when the new interns, fresh out of medical school, start work. In other
words, it’s when everyone is most ____41___. The theory is that this disadvantage leads to
mistakes.
So is medical experience good or bad? Well, in most cases, your doctor’s experience is
very helpful, allowing her to pick up on a(n)___42____ symptom early in a disease process,
when your condition falls outside of what is in the ___43____, where newbies get most of
their ideas. For many medical treatments, there’s a direct connection between physician
experience and your treating outcome.
In a variety of situations, though, experience can backfire. The reason is simple___44____.
Doctors are humans too and they ___45____ tricks of the mind--like believing that an
ineffective treatment really works. In fact, entire fields or research are devoted to
understanding why these errors of thought occur. They____46___ from so-called cognitive
prejudice that can mislead even ___47____ practitioners into making the wrong decisions.
Doctors are usually locked onto a diagnosis early and disregard new and ___48____
information. For example, a patient may be diagnosed with a quickly fatal cancer, but then
ends up trying various herbal remedies and lives for 30 more years. Instead of analyzing the
____49___diagnosis, the patient, and maybe even the doctor, may assume that the herbal
remedies cured the cancer.
Also, some experienced doctors then to believe evidence when it supports their
previous opinion while subconsciously ignoring information opposing it. Let’s say your
doctor is pretty certain you have ill digestion and orders a test to ___50____ the suspicion,
which produces negative result. But she treats you for ill digestion anyway because she was
____51___ with the prior diagnosis by experience.
In fact, there are clearly many benefits to having a highly experienced doctor, such as
technical proficiency. but there may actually be some unexpected benefits to having a
less-experienced one too. She may have a more up-to-date education, boundless energy
and perhaps is less vulnerable to biases, freed from the same ___52____ for years.
To safeguard yourself as a patient, one thing you should always do is ___53____. It may
not always be possible to determining that your doctor has met with an unconscious
thinking ____54___. But asking questions does force your doctor to think twice and
___55____her decision about your case.

A baby born in west today will more likely than not live to be 105, write Lynda Gratton
and Andrew Scott of London Business School in their book, The 100-Year Life. That may
sound like science fiction. 1 , it’s only cautiously optimistic.
If turning 100 becomes normal, then the authors predict “a fundamental redesign of
life”. We currently live “the three-stage life”: education, career, then retirement. The
book 2 that if today’s children want to retire on livable pensions, they will need
to work until about age 80. That would be a 3 to the past: in 1880, nearly half of
80-year-old Americans did some kind of work.
But few people will be able to bear the 4 and tedium of a 55-year career in a single
sector. Anyway, technological changes would make their education obsolete long before
they reached 80. The new life-path will 5 have more than three stages.
Two new life-stages appeared in the past century: teenagers and retirees. Now another
stage is 6 , say Gratton and Scott: the years from 18 to 30, which people increasingly
spend 7 from education to full-time work. Of course, many of today’s young have
no choice: they simply cannot find good jobs. But the 18-to-30s have also been 8
to understand the gift of extra years, say the authors. Many young people are now
consciously searching and experimenting, 9 how they want to spend the next seven
or so decades.
The authors predict that more will do two degrees: first a general undergraduate course,
which teaches thinking skills with lifelong value, and then a more 10 vocational
degree that teaches a specific sector’s current needs. After studying, the young will spend
time travelling, exploring different sectors, and 11 a “posse” of friends and
acquaintances who can sustain them at work and outside for 70 years.
Future careers will contain many transformations. People will have to make more
12 : next year, should you work hard in your job, return to education, or transition to an
entirely new sector? There will be time to achieve 13 in multiple domains. No
longer will women be 14 careers because they took five or 10 years out to raise kids.
That will still leave them 50-plus working years.
And people will change their use of leisure. When you could expect a 40-year career
followed by fat state or corporate pensions, you could spend your free time chilling and
buying stuff. But the 100-year life 15 more savings. You might also need to spend
much of your non-working time reskilling or exercising to maintain your body and brain for
those extra decades.

周练卷三
When retailers want to persuade customers to buy a particular product, they typically
offer it at a discount. According to a new study to be published in the journal of Marketing,
they are missing a __41__.
A team of researchers, led by Akshay Rao of the University of Minnesotas Carlson
School of Management, __42__ consumers attitudes to discounting shoppers, they found,
much prefer getting something extra free to getting something cheaper. The main reason is
that most people are poor at fractions(分数).
Consumers often struggle to realize, __43__, that a 50% increase in __44__ is the same as
a 33% discount in price. They overwhelmingly __45__ the former is better value. In an
experiment, the researchers sold 73% more hand lotion GR-A when it was offered in a bonus
pack than when it carried an __46__ discount (even after all other effects, such as a desire to
stockpile were controlled for)
This ___47 blind spot remains even when the deal __48__ savours the discounted
product. In another experiment, this time on his undergraduates, Mr Rao offered two __49__
on loose coffee beans 33% extra free or 33% off the price. The discount is by far the better
proposition, but the supposedly clever students viewed them as equivalent.
Studies have show other ways in which retailers can exploit consumers mathematical
__50__. One is to __51__ them with double discounting. People are more likely to see a
bargain in a product that has be reduced by 20%, and then by an additional 25%, than one
that has been subject to an equivalent, one-off, 40%o reduction.
Marketing types can draw lessons beyond just __52__, says Mr Rao. when advertising a
new cars efficiency, for example, it is more __53__ to talk about the number of extra miles per
gallon it does, rather than the equivalent percentage __54__ in fuel consumption.
There may be lessons for regulators too. Even __55__ shoppers are easily fooled.
Sending everyone back to school for maths refresher-courses seems out of the question.
But more noticeably is played unit prices in shops and advertisements would be a great
help.

【解题原则】
1、语义优先于语法原则
由于文章的开头部分一般不设空格,而是对所选短文的题材和可能涉及的内容作简单的介绍
或提示,并且单纯的语法题几乎从该题型中消失。
如果一味按照语法规则来选择答案,就陷入了答题误区,因为几乎每一题的四个选项都符合
语法规则;理解文章的大意并结合语言结构对每个空格作出正确的判断,方为上策。
2、词内选项句内找原则
从近几年的高考原题来看,近义词或词组的辨析正成为考试的热点。四个选择项要么都是词
义相近的名词单数或复数,要么都是近义动词的同一时态等,只能根据上下文的语境作出正
确的选择。
如果提供的四个选择项词义相差悬殊,则上文或下文肯定有答题提示,有时第一个空格要读
完全文才能回答。
【解题步骤】
1.要快速通读全文,了解文章大意,正确分析、归纳文章主旨。
2.在理解文章大意基础上,对每道题所给的词语进行剖析,考虑语境,上下呼应,运用逻辑
思维进行推理,再根据自己最有把握的、最熟悉的短语、习惯用语、动词形式和句子结构等,
先完成简单的,把难的留在后面。
3.再次细读全文,集中精力解决难点,填补空缺。
4.答题完毕,遵循由整体到局部、由局部到整体的规律,再耐心通读全文,认真复查所选答
案是否得当,语法是否正确,逻辑推理是否合理。
良好的完形填空成绩主要表现在良好的阅读习惯和良好的语法功底,有人说,“得阅读者得
天下”。完形填空也不例外。
多做多练多总结;扫清词汇障碍后还应培养自己良好的阅读习惯:
1、要以意群,语义为单位读,不要逐词逐句地认;
2、要借助视觉扫读,不要手指唇动或无声心读;
3、要从头至尾,一气呵成,不要频繁回读;
4、要直接理解原文,不要逐词逐句地心译;
5、要利用上下文和构词法猜测生词,推测出句意,不要频繁查阅词典;
6、逐步扩大视距,要纵式快速阅读,不要横式赏析细读。

The term “CYBERSPACE” was coined by William Gibson, a science-fiction writer. He

Cowboy or spaceman? A dilemma for a children’s party, perhaps. But also a question
for economists, argued Kenneth Boulding, a British economist, in an essay published in 1966.
We have run our ____41____, he warned, like cowboys on the open grassland: taking and
using the world’s resources, ___42_____ that more lies over the horizon. But the Earth is
____43____ a grassland than a spaceship—a closed system, alone in space, carrying limited
supplies. We need, said Boulding, an economics that takes seriously the idea of
environmental ____44____. In the half century since his essay, a new movement has
responded to his challenge. “Ecological economists”, as they call themselves, want to
____45____ its aims and assumptions. What do they say—and will their ideas achieve lift-off?
To its ___46_____, ecological economics is neither ecology nor economics, but a mix of
both. Their starting point is to recognize that the human economy is part of the natural
world. Our environment, they note, is both a source of resources and a sink for wastes. But it
is ____47____ in conventional textbooks, where neat diagrams trace the flows between firms,
households and the government as though nature did not exist. That is a huge mistake.
There are two ways our economies can grow, ecological economists point out: through
technological change, or through more intensive use of resources. Only the ____48____, they
say, is worth having. They are suspicious of GDP, a simple ____49____ which does not take
account of resource exhaustion, unpaid work, and countless other factors. ____50____ they
advocate more holistic(全面的) approaches, such as the Genuine Progress Indicator (GPI), a
composite index(复合指标) that includes things like the cost of pollution, deforestation and
car accidents. While GDP has kept growing, global GPI per person ____51____ in 1978: by
destroying our environment we are making ourselves poorer, not richer. The solution, says
Herman Daly, a former World Bank economist and eco-guru, is a “steady-state” economy,
where the use of materials and energy is held ___52_____.
Mainstream economists are ___53____. The GPI, they point out, is a subjective measure.
And talk of limits to growth has had a bad press since the days of Thomas Malthus, a gloomy
18th century cleric who predicted, wrongly, that overpopulation would lead to famine.
Human beings find solutions to some of the most annoying problems. But ecological
economists ___54____ self-satisfaction. In 2009 a paper in Nature, a scientific journal, argued
that human activity is already ____55____safe planetary boundaries on issues such
as biodiversity(生物多样性) and climate change. That suggests that ecological economists
are at least asking some important questions, even if their answers turn out to be wrong.

During residency (住院医生实习期), my first shifts could last 36 hours without sleep,
often without breaks of more than a few minutes. Whether I was impatient or I didn’t smell
the best, I never felt it ____41_____ for me to keep working. Being a doctor, after all, is
supposed to be putting other people’s needs before your own.
Most adults function best after seven to nine hours of sleep a night. When we get
fewer than seven hours, we’re damaged. When sleep always falls below six hours per 24,
we are at an increased risk of ____42_____problems. Sleep experts often compare
sleep-deprived people to drunk ____43_____.They don’t get behind the wheel going to kill
someone. But _____44____, what they both lose is self-awareness.
David Dinges, the chief of the division of sleep and chronobiology at University of
Pennsylvania, said, “When animals are sleep-deprived constantly, they will face serious
_____45____ consequences. Death is one of them.” Then how many people could do
anything close to that without dying?
We should admit that there probably are some people among us who can actually
_____46____sleep loss better than others. In 1964, a 17-year-old San Diego boy named
Randy Gardner stayed awake for 264 hours as an experiment. The Stanford sleep researcher
William Dement and other researchers took turns watching and assessing the young
man’s consciousness. The boy neither took any stimulant medications nor seemed to
____47_____ any permanent damages. Around the same time, the U.S. military got interested
in sleep-deprivation research: Could soldiers be _____48____ to function in sustained warfare
with little sleep? The original studies seemed to say yes. But when the military put soldiers in
a lab to make certain they stayed awake, it was found that the less sleep the soldiers got, the
more _____49____they had in accurate reactions the next day.
____50_____beyond our control--jobs, families and light pollution -- can make it hard
for us to sleep well. But here are a few simple tips.
Caffeine is the most consumed stimulant in the world, which increases adrenaline (肾上
腺素) levels in the blood. It has repeatedly been shown to improve athletic performance in
the short term. ____51_____use of caffeine can be cognitively (认知地) advantageous. But its
overuse is likely to throw off our sleep and energy cycles in the long term, ____52_____ the
body’s internal clock.
Besides, in the summer of 2015, experts were trying to deal with the _____53____ of all
new light into our lives. When light enters your eye, it hits your retina (视网膜), which directly
_____54____the hypothalamus ( 下 丘 脑 ). When your retinas start taking in less light, your
hypothalamus assumes it’s time to sleep. This is why we’re told to ____55_____ screen time
before bed, such as by using a “night mode” available on most mobiles phones.

The people of the Makah Nation have lived on Washington state’s Olympic Peninsula
for thousands of years. They call themselves Kwi-dich-cha-at which ____41_____ “people
who live by the rocks and seagulls.” The shorter name of Makah, bestowed on the
neighboring Native American peoples, means “generous with food.”
Before the white settlers arrived in the American Northwest, the Makah hunted gray and
humpback whales from canoes made from the western red cedar tree. Wales ____42_____
meat blubber, and bone for food, oil and utensils. The Makah enjoyed a lively trade in whale

confirmed the long and significant relationship between the Makah and whales. This
awareness _____49____ a cultural resurgence that included a focus on traditional foods and
the health problems some linked to changes in the Makah diet, particularly the ____50_____
from it of sea mammal meat.
Eventually, the Makah decided to resume hunting whales. Although their plans faced
strong opposition from different groups, they cited a 1885 treaty signed with the U.S.
government that ____51_____ the fight to continue this practice. After years of planning, the
Makah ___52_____first hunt for the late fall of 1998. They succeeded in bringing in a gray
whale about six months later, today the Makah hunt whales in the ____53_____way--from

jaws shut to prevent the animal from sinking. The wales are finally towed to share and cut

You already know that colors can suggest a mood or attitude, but do you know that
color is a ___41___ that can persuade us to buy things? According to some researches, color
can be up to 85 percent of the reason we ___42___ to purchase something. Smart marketers
know: Color ___43___!
“Right” colors make products “better”
Colors ___44___ how we feel about the food we eat. For example, orange juice with
___45___ orange color was preferred over naturally colored orange juice and was thought to
be sweeter.
In the case of ___46___, color also plays a role. Have you ever noticed that pink is often
used as the color of face creams? That’s for a good reason. In a research study, some
women were given pink and white face creams, which were ___47___ except for their color.
One hundred percent of the women said that the pink face creams were more effective and
___48___ on sensitive skin.
More colorful, more personalized
We need not only good quality products, but personalized ones. This urges
manufacturers to make their products more and more “colorful”.
Take M&M’s Milk Chocolate Candies for example. Having a packet of M&M’s
candies in ___49___, choosing which ones to eat first according to their colors -- many of us
probably have had such experience. A variety of colors is the ___50___ of the classic candies.
Now they have come with even more custom colors that will be sure to “___51___ in your
mouth, not in your hand!” Gold, silver, pink and many other colors are available to choose
from. Eating such candies must be a ___52___ “sweet” experience.
Another successful color marketing example is Apple’s iPod. Does Apple have
___53___ MP3 technology? Maybe, but that’s not the point, marketing experts say. What
makes the iPod so successful is “the ___54___ that makes it easy for people to express
themselves through color choices.” The fourth generation of iPod Nano features nine
colors -- pink, red, orange, yellow and so on. Color, as a personal statement, adds a touch of
___55___ to the MP3 player.
