21、People have many different ways to relax during break time at work or school. Smartphones are probably the number one choice for a quick mental vacation. Looking at your cellphone may damage your mental power, according to a recent psychological study from Rutgers University in the United States.

For the study, more than 400 students were asked to finish a set of 20 word puzzles. The students were divided into three groups. One group was allowed to take a break and use cellphones to buy things online. The second group was asked to have a rest and buy things using a computer. The last group didn't take any break at all.

Interestingly, the group that used their cellphones during the break went back to work feeling the most tired and least motivated to continue. They also had the hardest time solving the remaining word puzzles. The cellphone group took 19 percent longer to finish the rest of the task, and solved 22 percent fewer problems than those in the other break conditions combined.

Terri Kurtzberg, co-author of the study, explained that they assumed looking at cellphones during a break would be no different from any other break—but instead, the phone may cause increasing levels of distraction that make it difficult to return focused attention to work tasks.

“Cellphones may have this effect because even just seeing your phone activates thoughts of checking messages, connecting with people, access to ever-refilling information and more, in ways that are different from how we use other screens like computers, and laptops,” Kurtzberg told Science Daily.

So, during your next break, try putting your smartphone way. Go out for a walk, get to know your classmates or even take a nap. You may be surprised by the results!

【1】What did the study find about using cellphones during breaks?

A．It could affect one’s relationships with others

B．It could reduce one’s ability to solve problems

C．It could make people more motivated at work

D．It could be beneficial both physically and mentally

【2】What can we learn about cellphones from Kurtzberg’s words?

A．They have become a necessary part of people’s lives.

B．Their negative influence is almost impossible to avoid.

C．They may make it hard for people to concentrate on work.

D．They may influence people in the same way as computers.

【3】Why does looking at cellphones during a break cause increasing levels of distraction?

A．It makes people sleepy

B．It does harm to peoples brains

C．It activates thoughts of using cellphones

D．It reminds people of their unhappy experiences.

【4】What does the author suggest people do during break time?

A．Turn off their cellphones

B．Keep their cellphones out of sight

C．Keep their cellphones face down

D．Replace cellphones with laptops.

22、Britons are well known for the amount of tea that they drink. The average person in the UK consumes around 1.9 kg of tea yearly. That’s around 876 cups of tea. Tea is drunk by all sections of society. But tea is not native to Britain. Most tea is grown in India and China. So, how did it become an important part of British culture?

Tea arrived in London in the 1600s. At this time, British ships were exploring the world and came across the drink in China. It was not long before green tea was available to buy. However, this was only available to the richer sections of society.

At the beginning of the 1700s, the amount of tea arriving in Britain increased gradually. Black tea arrived at this time. At first people drank this tea exactly as it was in China. They soon discovered that it mixed really well with a little milk and sugar, giving the drink a special British characteristic.

In the 1800s tea was still a product enjoyed only by people with money. At this time they began to have “afternoon tea”. This involves drinking tea with a snack around 4 pm to avoid feeling hungry between lunch and dinner. It is a tradition that is still going today but has become less popular in recent times.

In the late 1800s, the price of tea decreased sharply as more tea began to arrive on ships from India and China. It was no longer a drink just for rich people. Tearooms — shops where you could buy and drink tea — started to appear across the country. People enjoyed drinking tea and socialising in these places. At the start of the 20th century, Britons began to make tea in their homes whenever they felt like it. Kettles became necessary in every kitchen.

【1】How does the passage mainly develop?

A．By providing examples.

B．By making comparisons.

C．By following the order of time.

D．By following the order of importance.

【2】What can we learn about British tea culture from Paragraph 1 and 2?

A．Tea reached Britain from China centuries ago.

B．Britons are famous for planting tea.

C．Green tea was popular in China.

D．Most tea is grown in Britain.

【3】When was tea no longer a drink just for rich people in the UK?

A．In the early 1700s.

B．In the early 1800s.

C．In the late 1800s.

D．In the late 20th century.

【4】What is the author’s purpose of writing this article?

A．To describe how to drink tea.

B．To explain why people love tea.

C．To compare black tea with green tea.

D．To introduce the history of British tea culture.

23、By the age of seven months, most children have learned that objects still exist even when they are out of sight. But it is something that self-driving cars do not have. And that is a problem. For a self-driving car, a bicycle that is momentarily hidden by a passing truck is a bicycle that has disappeared. How to give AI the reasoning ability for a seven-month-old child is now a matter of active research.

Modern AI is based on the idea of machine learning. If an engineer wants a computer to recognize a stop sign, he does not try to write thousands of lines of code that describe every pattern of pixels (像素) which could possibly indicate such a sign. Instead, he writes a program that can learn for itself, and then shows that program thousands of pictures of stop signs. Over many repetitions, the program gradually works out what features all of these pictures have in common.

Similar techniques are used to train self-driving cars to operate in traffic. But they do not understand many things a human driver takes for granted. In a recent paper in Artificial Intelligence, Mehul Bhatt of Orebro University in Sweden, describes a different approach. He and his colleagues took some existing AI programs which are used by self-driving cars and bolted onto them a piece of software. In tests, if one car momentarily blocked the sight of another, the reasoning-enhanced software could keep track of the blocked car, predict where and when it would reappear, and take steps to avoid it if necessary. The improvement was not huge. On standard tests Dr Bhatt’s system scored about 5% better than existing software.

However, the question goes beyond self-driving cars to the future of AI itself. “I don’t think we’re taking the right approach right now,” Dr Marcus, who studies psychology and neural science at New York University, says. “It’s not actually the answer to AI. We haven’t really solved the intelligence problem.” One way or another, then, it seems seven-month-olds still have a lot to teach machines.

【1】Why does the author mention seven-month-old children in the first paragraph?

A．To explain a rule.

B．To prove a theory.

C．To make a prediction.

D．To lead to a topic.

【2】How does the author explain “machine learning” in paragraph 2?

A．By using data.

B．By listing facts.

C．By introducing a concept.

D．By giving an example.

【3】What do we know about Dr Bhatt’s system?

A．It improves self-driving cars greatly.

B．It makes self-driving cars safer than before.

C．It has the intelligence of a seven-month-old child.

D．It uses the same method as previous machine learning.

【4】What is Dr Marcus’s attitude to the present situation of AI?

A．Dissatisfied.

B．Favorable.

C．Uninterested.

D．Unclear.
