When I was nine, my best friend nearly choked to death on a gobstopper, a type of hard candy. After
several attempts, she coughed up the candy. I haven’t had a gobstopper since and I have carried with me a fear
of seeing that scene again. Sadly, as I discovered this week, lightning can strike twice.
I was getting off a tube train in London when I noticed a woman coughing. I slowed down, watching her
carefully. I had learned that coughing is rarely a sign that something is terribly wrong. Suddenly, the woman
stopped coughing, her eyes widened and she bent over.
When I went over to ask if she was OK, she looked up at me, panicked, and pointed to her back. I started
hitting her back and screaming for help. Despite having watched a few videos, I was terrified that I wouldn’t be
able to correctly perform the Heimlich, a first-aid method, and that I would have to walk away with guilt for
her death. But it was just the two of us, alone at an underground station; if I didn’t try to help, no one would.
Thankfully, much like with my friend, after a few sharp hits, whatever had been stuck in her throat came loose.
She thanked me, almost embarrassed, and walked up to the lift. I followed behind her, shaking, with tears in
my eyes.
By the time we reached the lift, we had both calmed down. She took my hands and thanked me again,
before disappearing. She might have been fine without my hurried hits on her back — I may not have actually
saved her life — but at least she knew that someone, a stranger whom she would never see again, cared.
This experience also taught me about the bystander effect, where people assume others assumed to be
available during an emergency, which leads to inaction. I get it: the fear of making things worse, especially if
you have no medical training, is real. Research suggests that when a “medically competent” person is assumed
to be available during an emergency, direct help from others is far less likely to occur. Sometimes, though,
regardless of who else could be nearby, it may be useful to get involved. So it was with the coughing woman
on the tube.
24．How did the friend’s choking incident affect the author?
A．She lived with a sense of guilt.
B．She realized the importance of first aid.
C．She developed a fear of witnessing similar events.
D．She deepened her understanding of the bystander effect.
25．What did the author do to help the woman on the tube?
A．She relieved the woman’s coughing.
B．She walked the woman up to the lift.
C．She learned Heimlich from her.
D．She performed first aid by hitting the woman’s back.
26．Which situation can be described as the bystander effect?
A．You volunteered to help an old man carrying a heavy bag.
B．You asked your brother who is a doctor to save a dying woman.
C．You avoided involvement when seeing an injured lady on the road.
D．You walked away after the rescue men asked you to leave the scene.
27．What can we learn from this passage?
A．A good turn deserves another. B．Every cloud has a silver lining.
C．A friend in need is a friend indeed. D．Action speaks louder than inaction.
C
Advances in AI and machine learning have sparked interest from governments that would like to use these
tools for patrolling (巡查) purposefully beforehand to prevent crime. However, early efforts at crime prediction
have been controversial, because they do not allow for systematic biases (偏差) in police enforcement (实施)
and its complex relationship with crime and society.
University of Chicago (UC) data and social scientists have developed a new algorithm ( 算 法 ) that
forecasts crime by learning patterns in time and geographic locations from public data on violent and property
crimes. It has demonstrated success at predicting future crimes one week in advance with approximately 90%
accuracy.
The new tool was tested and validated using historical data from the City of Chicago around two broad
categories of reported events: violent crimes and property crimes.
The new model isolates crime by looking at the time and spatial coordinates (坐标) of separate events and
detecting patterns to predict future events. It divides the city into spatial sections roughly 1,000 feet across and
predicts crime within these areas instead of relying on traditional neighborhood or political boundaries, which
are also subject to bias. The model performed just as well with data from seven other US cities.
Ishanu Chattopadhyay, senior author of the study, is careful to note that the tool’s accuracy does not mean
that it should be used to direct law enforcement, with police departments using it to flock to neighborhoods
ahead of time to stop crime. Instead, it should be added to a toolbox of urban policies and policing strategies to
address crime.
“We created a digital twin of urban environments. If you feed it data from what happened in the past, it
will tell you what’s going to happen in future. It’s not magical; there are limitations, but we tested it and it
works well,” Chattopadhyay said. “Now you can use this as a model tool to see what happens if crime goes up
in one area, or there is increased enforcement in another area. If you apply all these different data, you can see
how the system evolves in response.”
28．What information would data and social scientists in UC collect?
A．Periods of traffic jams. B．Items of lost and found.
C．Thefts and robberies on the street. D．Deaths in traffic accidents.
29．What does the underlined word “validated” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A．Confirmed. B．Promoted. C．Classified. D．Abandoned.
30．What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．The advantages and disadvantages of this new tool.
B．The principles and good performances of this new tool.
C．Positive feedback from some other experts in this field.
D．The hard process of Chattopadhyay’s developing this tool.
31．What can we know from Chattopadhyay’s opinion on the tool’s use?
A．He does not think it’s accurate enough to put into use.
B．The limitations are to be removed for a better performance.
C．The police department can wholly rely on it to prevent criminals.
D．It can be of help when the authority make policies concerning crimes.

One day, a snowstorm blanketed Washington, D.C., the whole city became a white world. When I
awoke, I immediately put on my warmest clothes and dashed outside. I wanted to build a snowman. Then I
noticed I had audience — a couple with coffee cups in their hands. My face flushed ( 脸红) with shame as I
tried to come up with an answer to their unspoken question: Don’t you have anything better to do?
A middle-aged woman playing by herself in the snow is an undoubtedly odd sight, but maybe it
shouldn’t be. Modern adults are suffering from excessive physical and emotional stress. We’ve held back our
natural play instinct ( 本能), and that’s causing all kinds of problems — for ourselves, our children, and our
planet.
Playing suggests that somewhere, deep in our evolutionary history, a playful human came up with the
concept of stone tools. Even today, the urge to play underlies most of humanity’s greatest inventions, artworks,
and scientific breakthroughs. “When I interviewed Nobel Prize winners, I was struck by how most of them
didn’t separate work and play. Their labs were their playgrounds,” says Stuart Brown, a play researcher.
While object play occasionally results in direct applications, it has a more general benefit as well, says
animal behaviorist Marc Bekoff. “Most forms of play are about preparing for the unexpected by expanding
your behavioral skills.” When animals play by themselves — such as goats jumping around and intentionally
landing awkwardly — they learn two lessons: How to recover from missteps and, more generally, how to
remain calm when things go sideways.
When it comes to humans, as we fully transition to a knowledge-based economy, work and play are
beginning to combine again. Some of today’s most successful companies were started by people running small
business in their garages. Organizations like these understand the value of encouraging adults to play. In many
cases, people aren’t needed for routine, boring tasks any more. “You need passionate people who can invent
new things, who can think of new ways of doing things,” Brown says.
The next time I’m caught playing, I know exactly what I’ll say: “I am not wasting time or acting
immature. I’m playing for the benefit of all humanity. You’re welcome.”
32．Why does the author mention his own experience in the beginning?
A．To present a fact. B．To describe a scene.
C．To clarify a concept. D．To introduce a topic.
33．What can be inferred from the third paragraph?
A．Modern adults are free to act on their instincts.
B．Play is the driving power behind human progress.
C．Humans make scientific breakthroughs by playing.
D．Nobel Prize winners often separate work from play.
34．What qualities do companies most need in the knowledge-based economy era?
A．Teamwork and honesty. B．Leadership and empathy.
C．Innovation and enthusiasm. D．Patience and determination.
35．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Adults should prioritize playtime B．Adults need to make time for play
C．Play can expand and correct behavior D．Play is the source of human inventions

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How long does it take to become an elite ( 精 英 ) in your field? 36 That’s what John Hayes, a
cognitive psychology professor at Carnegie Mellon University, wanted to know.
For decades, Hayes has been investigating the role of effort, practice and knowledge in top performers.
37 The research focused on people like Mozart and Picasso to determine how long it took them to become
world-class at their craft.
Let’s talk about what Hayes has discovered about world-class-performers. And more importantly, let’s
discuss how you can use these insights to achieve your goals and become your best.
38 He analyzed thousands of musical pieces produced from 1685 to 1900. The central question that
drove his work was, “How long after one becomes interested in music is it that one becomes world-class?”
Eventually, Hayes developed a list of 500 pieces of “masterworks” in the field, which were created by a total of
76 composers.
Hayes mapped out the timeline of each composers’ career. 39 What he discovered was that virtually
every single “masterwork” was written after the tenth year of the composer’s career. Not a single person
produced incredible work without putting in a decade of practice first. Even a genius like Mozart had to work
for at least ten years before he produced something that became popular. 40
In follow-up studies, Hayes found similar patterns among famous painters and popular poets. These
findings have been further confirmed by research from professors like K. Anders Ericsson, who produced
research that revealed that you needed to put in “10, 000 hours” to become an elite or expert in your field.
