26、SHOULD WE FIGHT NEW TECHNOLOGY?

This morning, I saw the shocking headline: “Passenger Dies When Car Crashes in Driverless Mode”. In the article, a lot of people said that the public should oppose the idea of developing driverless cars. They said that some advances in technology were unnecessary and could even be dangerous. Hence, we should cease accepting technology just because it is new. The newspaper reported that the car company had already apologized for the accident, but the families of the deceased said it was not enough. Nevertheless, the company still claimed that most people would be travelling in driverless cars one day soon.

On the one hand, there are many different groups of people around the world who live happily in the absence of new technology. Probably the most well-known are the Amish, a group of Christians living in rural America. They do not own or drive cars, watch TV, or use the Internet. They have lived mainly as farmers since the 18th century, and they will probably be living the same way in the distant future. They advocate a simple life with an emphasis on hard work, family, and community. They think that is better than caring about luxuries or following the lives of the rich and famous. It could even be argued that the Amish’s quality of life is better since they live in and appreciate the natural environment rather than living in large, polluted cities.

On the other hand, new technology has provided people everywhere with many benefits over the years. For example, the latest weather-tracking computer programs give people lots of warnings about potential natural disasters, which saves many lives. Moreover, the Internet has made it possible for friends and family to keep in touch easily even if they are on opposite sides of the world. It has also made finding opportunities in life much easier, as it allows people to make larger networks of friends through using social media.

Personally, I have benefited quite a lot from technological advances. I found my career as an AI designer through a social media network. My health monitor, which I wear all the time, has also helped me get into the best shape of my life. Of course, when new technology changes the way we live, it can be a scary prospect. Nevertheless, I will always look on the positive side of change and accept it rather than resist it.

【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A.A person died in an accident while driving his brand-new car.

B.The relatives of the victim would never accept the apology.

C.Many people took a negative attitude to this new technology.

D.The company was very concerned about the future of this new technology.

【2】What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the Amish in the second paragraph?

A.To persuade us to follow their natural living style.

B.To tell us the Amish prefer a harmonious and peaceful life.

C.To prove people can still live better without new technology.

D.To advocate a simple life with family and community by hard work.

【3】According to the third paragraph, which of the following benefits is not talked about?

A.Monitoring people’s physical health.

B.Providing chances in life more easily.

C.Predicting the earthquake and tsunami.

D.Helping people contact each other easily.

【4】Why did the author decide to write about the passage?

A.To praise the advantages of new technology.

B.To show his supportive idea of new technology.

C.To criticize the disadvantages of new technology.

D.To arouse people’s concern about new technology.

27、Human beings use animals for a lot of purposes, including research. By studying animals, it is possible to learn information that cannot be learned in any other way. Animals are used in research when there is a need to find out what happens in the whole living body. There are four main reasons why animals are used in research.

Adding to scientific knowledge through basic biological research helps us understand how living things work, and use that understanding for the benefit(利益)of both humans and animals. The study of animals is an important part of the whole research process. The bodies of animals are like humans’ in the way that they perform many important functions(功能) such as breathing, movement, sight, and hearing. To treat disease, doctors and scientists must understand how the healthy body works.

Humans and animals share hundreds of illnesses, so animals can act as models for the study of human illness. For example, rabbits suffer form emphysema, a lung problem that makes it hard to catch their breath. Dogs suffer from cancer, bleeding disorders and so on. Cats suffer from some of the same vision loss as humans. From such models we learn how diseases affect the body and more.]

Once researchers learn more about a particular disease, animals are used to develop and test the treatments. For example, medicines for Parkinson’s disease have been developed by using animal models with Parkinson’s-like symptoms(症状). Models such as these are an important part of using biological research to solve real medical problems.

New medicines need testing because researchers must test both the beneficial and the harmful effects of a medicine on a living body. A medicine must be tested in a suitable animal model before clinical trials(临床试验) in humans can take place.

【1】According to Paragraph 2, why are animals used in research?

A．They may be healthier than humans.

B．Their bodies are simpler than humans’.

C．They may have the same diseases as humans.

D．Their bodies are like humans’ in many functions.

【2】How does the author support his statement in Paragraph 3?

A．By listing figures.

B．By giving examples.

C．By comparing humans with animals.

D．By showing some research finding.

【3】The author mentions Parkinson’s disease to ________.

A．introduce a new discovery of medicine

B．prove that animals have the same disease

C．explain how to use animals for testing new medicines

D．gather more information about Parkinson’s symptoms

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．Tests in animals should be carried out legally.

B．Not all new medicines can be tested in animals.

C．New medicines must be first tested in animal models.

D．Not all medicines have both beneficial and harmful effects.

29、You’re standing at a city bus stop, waiting for a bus to arrive. You wait and wait. 【1】 But you haven’t seen one for at least 20 minutes. Finally, a bus full of people arrives. Just as you try to get on the bus, you see another bus coming down the street, and another one behind it!

What’s going on? Why do buses always seem to come in bunches (成群) instead of at regular intervals (固定间隔)?

【2】 They say that passengers only remember the few times when buses arrive at a stop in bunching, but forget the many more times when buses arrive regularly.

However, other people believe that bunching (成群而来) can happen quite often. 【3】 If each stop had the same number of passengers waiting, the buses would keep to their schedule. But usually there are many people at some stops and no one at others.

Suppose many people happen to gather at a particular stop. 【4】 So the first bus gets delayed (耽误) and the bus behind it catches up with it a bit. When the second bus arrives at the same stop, there are fewer passengers left, so the bus goes on its way quickly. Meanwhile, the first bus arrives at its next stop a little later than usual, so it will take more time for passengers to get on. 【5】 Then, the two buses end up travelling together. If the route is a long one, a third bus could eventually catch up with the first two.

A．There’s supposed to be a bus every 10 minutes.

B．But you don’t know the exact time the bus will arrive.

C．The reason is that the number of passengers at stops is different.

D．After several more stops, the second bus catches up with the first.

E．Some people believe that bus bunching doesn’t happen very often.

F．Find the probability that the waiting time is longer than you expected.

G．It takes longer than usual for the passengers to board the first bus that arrives.
