21、“Adolescent chimpanzees (黑猩猩) are in some sense facing the same psychological characteristics that human teens are,” said Alexandra Rosati,a professor at the University of Michigan. “Our findings show that several key features of human adolescent psychology are also seen in our closest primate relatives.”

The researchers conducted two tests involving food rewards with 40 wild-born chimpanzees in Republic of Congo. The chimpanzees voluntarily participated in the games to receive food treats.

Chimpanzees experience adolescence at about 8 to 15. Like humans, chimpanzees show rapid changes in hormone levels during adolescence,start forming new bonds with companions, show increases in aggression and compete for social status.

In the first test, adolescent and adult chimpanzees could choose between two containers in a gambling (投机) task. One container always contained peanuts, a food that chimpanzees somewhat like. Hidden in the other one was either an unlined food — a cucumber slice — or a favorite food — a banana slice. The chimpanzees could play it safe and get the peanuts, or take a chance for some greatly desired banana at the risk of ending up with unappetizing cucumber. The chimpanzees’ emotional reactions were recorded, including angers, screams, or sticking on the table.

During several rounds of the test, adolescent chimpanzees took the risky option more often than adult chimpanzees, but adolescents and adults had similar negative reactions when they received cucumber.

The second lest, modeled after the famous “marshmallow test” with human children, examined delayed satisfaction where chimpanzees could receive one banana slice immediately or wait for one minute to receive three slices. Both adolescent and adult chimpanzees chose the greater delayed reward at a similar rate. Human teens lend to be more impulsive (冲动) than adults so they would be more likely to take the immediate reward.

“Prior research indicates that chimpanzees are quite patient compared with other animals, and our study shows that their ability to delay satisfaction is already mature at a fairly young age, unlike in humans,” Rosati said.

Risk-taking behavior in both adolescent chimpanzees and humans appears to be deeply biologically rooted, but increases in impulsive behavior may be specific to human teens.

【1】What does the first test aim to find out about chimpanzees?

A．Their problems of emotions.

B．The signs of aggression.

C．Their sense of adventure.

D．The change in hormone levels.

【2】What does the underlined expression “play it safe” in paragraph 4 mean?

A．Give it a try.

B．Take an action.

C．Play with fire.

D．Avoid taking risks.

【3】How might chimpanzees feel after getting the cucumber in the experiment?

A．Puzzled.

B．Delighted.

C．Disappointed.

D．Surprised.

【4】What is the finding of the second test?

A．The chimpanzees prefer bananas to any other reward.

B．Human adolescents tend to enjoy the instant satisfaction.

C．Human teens’ ability to delay satisfaction develops better.

D．The chimpanzees are impatient to wait for delayed rewards.

22、   There’s something satisfying about volunteering. Studies have shown that volunteering helps people who donate their time feel more socially connected, thus warding off loneliness and depression. But a growing body of evidence suggests that people who give their time to others might also be rewarded with better physical health, including lower blood pressure and a longer lifespan.

Evidence of volunteerism’s physical effects can be found in a recent study from Carnegie Mellon University, published this month in Psychology and Aging. Adults over age 50 who volunteered on a regular basis were less likely to develop high blood pressure than non-volunteers. High blood pressure is an important indicator of health because it contributes to heart disease, stroke, and premature death.

It’s impossible for this study to prove that volunteering was directly responsible for the lower blood pressure. People who volunteer may be more likely to do other things, like eating a healthy diet or exercise, which lower blood pressure. But the results are in line with other findings on the topic.

How might volunteering contribute to lower blood pressure？Performing volunteer work could increase physical activity among people who aren’t otherwise very active, says leading study author Rodlescia Sneed, a doctoral candidate in social and health psychology at Carnegie Mellon University. It may also reduce stress. “Many people find volunteer work helpful with respect to stress reduction, and we know that stress is very strongly linked to health out-comes,” she says.

A 2012 study in the journal Health Psychology found that participants who volunteered with some regularity lived longer, but only if their intentions were truly altruistic. In other words, they had to be volunteering to help others-not to make themselves feel better.

The Greek philosopher Aristotle once guessed that the essence of life is “To serve others and do good.” If recent research is any indication, serving others might also be the essence of good health.

【1】Which can replace the underlined phrase “warding off” in paragraph 1？

A.getting rid of. B.keeping up with.

C.running out of. D.putting up with.

【2】Why does the author mention the study from Carnegie Mellon University？

A.To prove the benefit of volunteering to health.

B.To find out volunteerism’s physical effects on heart.

C.To explain the connection between exercise and health.

D.To warn readers the danger of volunteering to blood pressure.

【3】What can we learn from what Rodlescia Sneed said？

A.Volunteers are supposed to be more outgoing.

B.Volunteer work can make people lack sports.

C.Taking appropriate exercise can strengthen social connection.

D.Performing volunteer work contributes to reducing stress.

【4】What’s the text mainly about？

A.Volunteering can lower blood pressure.

B.Volunteering is beneficial to mental health.

C.Volunteering may be good for body and mind.

D.Volunteering can avoid suffering from heart disease.

23、Each time you transmit your sensitive data into a website, you could unknowingly fall for an online fraud, or criminals may hack the computer system at your bank or store.

Fortunately, MetLife Defender provides comprehensive protection against the full range of today’s online risks—beyond your personal computer or device—to keep your personal data safe.

The Good

MetLife Defender has all of the basic services and features that an identity protection plan needs. The individual plan includes:

◇Medical data protection

◇Financial data protection

◇Personal data protection, detection and removal

◇Pre-approval offer and junk mail opt-outs

◇Credit monitoring and alerts

MetLife Defender’s family plan includes some really cool and unique online child safety features. If MetLife’s system detects any cyber-bullying involving your child, it will automatically alert the parents.

The Bad

MetLife Defender doesn’t have anything that “wows” you. Everything they have in their individual plan can be found at another identity protection company. Plus, MetLife Defender has a higher monthly price than most.

The Bottom Line

MetLife Defender is an average product, but what sets them standing out is their family plan. The Online Child Safety Features is an innovative approach to protecting both their identity and themselves emotionally and physically. We wouldn’t recommend MetLife Defender solely on their identity protection, but their child features are worth testing out with their free 30-day trial.

Family Plan

Metlife’s family identity protection plan covers two adult individuals and an unlimited number of minors—children up to age 18— living in the same household as the covered adults.

Cancellation

If Metlife subscribers cancel a paid monthly subscription mid-month, Metlife services continue until the end of that month. After that, the customer will no longer be billed. If you cancel a paid annual subscription, you will receive a refund（退款）based on the number of full months for which you are no longer enrolled.

【1】What is unique of MetLife Defender?

A. Financial data protection.

B. Credit monitoring and alerts.

C. The Online Child Safety Features.

D. Comprehensive protection against online risks.

【2】What does the writer imply in the passage?

A. Metlife’s family plan covers a family of only three people.

B. Cyber-crime goes beyond control.

C. Cancellation may cause great loss to users.

D. MetLife Defender costs more than products of the same kind.

24、   The team, led by Michael T. Tolley, a professor of mechanical engineering at the Jacobs School of Engineering at UC San Diego, details its findings in the Feb 17, 2021 issue of the journal Science Robotics.

“This work represents a fundamental yet significant step towards fully-autonomous, electronics-free walking robots,” said Dylan Drotman, a Ph. D. student in Tolley’s research group and the paper’s first author.

Applications include low-cost robots for entertainment, such as toys, and robots that can operate in environments where electronics cannot function, such as MRI machines. Soft robots are of particular interest because they easily adapt to their environment and operate safely near humans.

Most soft robots are powered by air and are controlled by electronic circuits. But this approach requires complex components like circuit boards, valves (阀门) and pumps -often outside the robot’s body. These components, which make up the robot’s brains and nervous system, are typically large and expensive. By contrast, the UC San Diego robot is controlled by a light-weight, low-cost system of air-powered circuits, made up of tubes and soft valves, onboard the robot itself. The robot can walk on command or in response to signals it senses from the environment.

“With our approach, you could make a very complex robotic brain,” said Tolley, the study’s senior author. “Our focus here was to make the simplest air-powered nervous system needed to control walking.”

In the future, researchers want to improve the robot’s ways to walk so it can walk on natural field and uneven surfaces. This would allow the robot to navigate over a variety of obstacles (障碍). This would require a more complicated network of sensors and as a result a more complex air-powered system. The team will also look at how the technology could be used to create robots, which are in part controlled by air-powered circuits for some functions, such as walking.

【1】What is the achievement of the team’s study?

A．Their robots can walk a huge step.

B．Their robots work following commands.

C．Their study gets their electronics for free.

D．They find a new technique in walking robots.

【2】What can the team’s robots be applied to from the passage?

A．Toy companies’ products.

B．Environmental protection.

C．Human safety.

D．Factories without workers.

【3】What will the researchers probably do?

A．Change the way of power.

B．Help robots walk as human.

C．Improve robots to avoid obstacles.

D．Build a network to control robots.

【4】What is the passage mainly talking about?

A．The introduction to electronics-free walking robots.

B．The functions of newly-developed robots.

C．The applications of soft walking robots.

D．The ways to improve traditional robots.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

The old man turned away sadly with his eyes filled with tears. Poor Mr. Dev! Indra thought sympathetically. Another day went past and there was still no sign of his family. Indra wondered how children could be so heartless as to abandon a parent like this.

Indra recalled the day when the old man was admitted to her ward (病房). He was thin and delicate. He could not produce his identity card but he could remember the number. The hospital tried to contact his family using the phone number he gave them but it was in vain. He was treated for a lung infection and was now recovering. Soon, it would be time for him to be discharged (出院). Where would he go then? He did not look strong enough to look after himself. Indra threw down the file she was holding as anger rose within her.

“What’s the matter?” asked Poh, Indra’s colleague.

“I’m just upset about old Mr. Dev,” she replied. Poh nodded with understanding. She had been a nurse much longer than Indra. She had seen many cases of abandoned old people and she had learned to control her feelings.

“Don’t worry too much. The hospital will contact the welfare department. Mr. Dev will be placed in an old folks’ home,” Poh said and patted Indra’s arm comfortingly.

Indra sighed. “I know. It’s just that the old man really longs for his family to visit him. He cleans and tidies himself every morning and sits up to wait expectantly. You can see the eagerness in his eyes whenever the door opens. At the end of the day, he goes to sleep with tears in his eyes. You can feel the disappointment as he does. It makes me cry inside. I just could not bear it.”

Poh shook her head sadly, “He needs a miracle (奇迹).”

注意：

1. 续写词数应为150左右；

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Two days later, the doctor confirmed that Mr. Dev was fit enough to be discharged.
