Nise Pllutin Rules Shuld Be Tightened
Rad traffic, aircraft, ships, factries and il drilling are all human activities that prduce nise. The nise shuld be better ___31___ t prtect wildlife, say the authrs f a study ___32___ hw sund pllutin affects creatures frm fish t birds.
Studies have fund nise pllutin t be linked t prer human health. But experts say it can als affect wildlife, frm preventing their cmmunicatin t affecting the ___33___ with which they search fr fd. “Fr example, if bats ___34___ their prey thrugh sund clues can’t hear clearly,” said Dr Hansjerg Kunc, the c-authr f the research, “they have t fly lnger and invest mre time and energy t find fd.”
The studies were based n experiments in which ___35___ aspects f the animals’ behaviur r ther measures, such as changes in hrmne (荷爾蒙) levels, were ___36___ befre and after expsure t nise. The results reveal that human-prduced nise affects a wide range f species. “Thus, the respnse t nise can be explained by mst species respnding t nise rather than a few species being ___37___ sensitive t nise,” the authrs wrte.
The team cntinued t ___38___ that their research did nt examine whether the effects were beneficial r harmful t species. That was because such cnsideratins were ___39___. Fr example, nise that affects hunting culd benefit prey while creating difficulties fr predatrs (食肉動物).
“Even if sme animals benefitted, it did nt mean nise shuld nt be dealt with, since the majrity wuld still experience negative effects”, said Kunc. But there was ___40___ fr ptimism. “Unlike chemical pllutin, if a nise surce mves away, then nthing stays in the envirnment any mre,” he said.
III. Reading Cmprehensin
Sectin A (15分)
Directins: Fr each blank in the fllwing passage there are fur wrds r phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the wrd r phrase that best fits the cntext.
In a recent meeting we attended, the wrd “culture” came up 27 times in 90 minutes. Business leaders all believe a strng rganizatinal culture is ___41___ t success, yet culture tends t feel like sme magic frce that few knw hw t cntrl. In ur study, we find that answering the fllwing three questins can help transfrm culture frm a mystery t a(n) ___42___:
Hw des culture drive perfrmance?
After analyzing 50 majr cmpanies, we came t ne cnclusin: ___43___ we wrk determines hw well we wrk. The cmpanies mst famus fr their cultures maximize the psitive mtives (動機), while minimizing the negative nes.
The six main reasns fr which peple wrk are “play, purpse, ptential, emtinal pressure, ecnmic pressure, and inertia (慣性)”. The latter three mtives tend t ___44___ perfrmance. That is because thse peple are n lnger thinking abut wrk. They’re thinking abut the disappintment, r the ___45___, r why they’re bthering t d it at all. They dn’t ___46___ the quality f the wrk itself. By cntrast, a high-perfrming ___47___ always maximizes the play, purpse, and ptential, which is knwn as creating ttal mtivatin.
What is culture wrth?
While it is ___48___ t measure whether smene is being creative, it’s relatively easy t calculate ttal mtivatin f an rganizatin. Take fr example the airline industry. All airline cmpanies share the same terminals and use the same planes, but custmer satisfactin ___49___ widely acrss airlines. When we measured the ttal mtivatin f emplyees f fur majr airlines, and cmpared the result with custmer satisfactin, we saw that an airline’s culture clsely ___50___ custmer satisfactin. ___51___, cultures that inspired mre play, purpse, and ptential prduced better custmer utcmes, and in turn generated mre prfits.
What elements in an rganizatin ___52___ mtivatin?
By surveying thusands f wrkers, we fund the mst sensitive element is whether an rganizatin can allw an emplyee t ___53___ with its missin and behaviral cde. Fr example, Medtrnic enables its engineers t see hw the medical devices they’ve designed are used in hspitals, s that they can see the purpse f their wrk. An executive f Walmart, the well-knwn supermarket, tld us that in mnthly meetings he always emphasized hw much Walmart had saved fr the ___54___—rather than hw much mney Walmart had made.
A great culture is nt easy t build. Leaders have t treat culture building as an engineering prject, nt a ___55___ ne.

Sectin B (22分)
Directins: Read the fllwing three passages. Each passage is fllwed by several questins r unfinished statements. Fr each f them there are fur chices marked A, B, C and D. Chse the ne that fits best accrding t the infrmatin given in the passage yu have just read.
(A)
If there is ne thing we can cnclusively say abut Isaac Asimv, it’s that he culd write. His bdy f wrk extends t ver 500 bks. T add t that, he was never bund t a specific field. Althugh mst famus as a science fictin writer, he als published n many mre tpics.
Part f this related t his gifted mind, but a bigger part was that he was well-educated. Many tend t think f being educated as the degrees we earn. Asimv did have a gd degree, but his real educatin was brader than that. It was deeper than what he learned frm instructin. It was his curisity and his drive t push himself that tk him frm a yung immigrant t maybe ne f the mst belved US authrs. As a yung kid, he spent his days lst in his mind asking questins and creating imaginary wrlds. He read bks, and he lved knwledge.
In his autbigraphy (自傳) It’s Been a Gd Life, Asimv tells a stry abut an encunter he had as a child when his father asked him a questin: “Hw did yu learn all this, Isaac?” “Frm yu, Pappa,” Asimv said. “Frm me? I dn’t knw any f this.” “Yu didn’t have t, Pappa,” He said. “Yu valued learning and yu taught me t value it. Once I learned t value it, the rest came withut truble.” The mark f educated minds has nthing t d with hw much they knw. It has everything t d with the way they knw and the way they g abut knwing.
Als, ne thing that many peple dn’t knw abut Isaac Asimv is that he actually wasn’t a full-time writer fr mst f his life. By persnal chice, his day-jb was as a chemist. One f the things that many plymaths (博學(xué)者) naturally d is explre a brad range f nn-fictin tpics. But smething they tend t verlk is the knwledge they can btain frm fictin. Befre Asimv fell in lve with science, he was already attracted by fictin. It was his lve f Greek myth and his reading f 18th and 19th-century classics that led him t becme a great writer.
56. Accrding t the passage, Isaac Asimv is a ____________.
A. belved US chemistB. full-time fictin authr

D. Nn-fictin is nt wrth reading if ne is t becme a writer.

The Australian envirnment department has nt finalised a single recvery plan fr threatened species in nearly 18 mnths. The last time the department cmpleted a recvery plan was in June last year. And the department says it has n time frame fr addressing the ther requests fr recvery plans, which include the critically endangered animal Leadbeater’s pssum (澳洲負鼠).
Recvery plans are dcuments that utline key facts abut endangered animals and plants, threats t their survival, and what shuld be dne t prevent their extinctin. Under natinal laws, it is the envirnment minister wh decides whether a species requires a recvery plan. Once a plan is adpted, the minister cannt make any changes that might harm the plan. It has been previusly reprted that less than 40% f the listed threatened species have a recvery plan. A further 10% have been identified as requiring a recvery plan but thse plans haven’t been develped.
The Australian Cnservatin Fundatin said the expsure was “shcking” and accused the department f priritizing the ecnmic develpment ver envirnmental prtectin. “The fact that icnic (最具代表性的) species like the pssum still dn’t have a recvery plan highlights hw brken the system is,” James Trezise, a plicy analyst at the Fundatin, said. “It is a critical issue that the develpment and implementatin f these plans seem t be ptinal. These plans shuld be develped, as required by law, and their implementatin shuld be funded.”
Trezise said the significant delay in develping the plans std “in sharp cntrast” t the gvernment’s rush t carry ut envirnmental assessments fr majr prjects like the ne fr the mining cmpany Ri Tint. “The department’s pririties are all wrng,” he said. “They can bring bills befre the cngress fr mining prjects that harm the envirnment, but they can’t get just ne recvery plan fr a threatened species cmpleted.”
He said the delays wuld push mre species clser t extinctin. He called n the gvernment t urgently address the issue and cmmit mre resurces t recvery planning. But fr nw, fficials culd nt tell when the delays wuld be addressed, saying it wuld “take a very lng time”. Emma Campbell, a senir fficial, said the department was wrking with an independent scientific cmmittee t “reevaluate” which species shuld have a recvery plan.
63. The underlined phrase “the expsure” (Line 1, Para 3) refers t ______________.
A. the cming extinctin f many endangered animals
B. the lack f funding fr the implementatin f the plan
C. the denial f the critical situtain facing sme species
D. the gvernment’s delay in develping recvery plans
64. Which f the fllwing is TRUE abut recvery plans?
A. They can be changed as the envirnment minister likes.
B. They can help prevent endangered animals frm ging extinct.
C. They dcument hw endangered animals interact with humans.
D. They cver mre than half f the threatened species.
65. What can be inferred frm the passage?
A. The gvernment has nt dne enugh abut the recvery plans.
B. The endangered animal pssum will be extinct in 18 mnths.
C. The gvernment priritizes Ri Tint ver mining prjects.
D. The independent cmmittee is vital t addressing the issue.
66. What might be the best title f the passage?
A. Envirnment department accepting bribes
B. Endangered animal prtectin with n funding
C. Threatened species at risk with n recvery plans
D. Gvernment frming tense relatinship with the public

The Mst Imprtant Vide Game Ever Made
Time Magazine recently tasked its editrial staff with ranking the 50 greatest vide games f all time. The number ne spt was taken nt by Super Mari, Zelda, r any ther wrthwhile cmpetitrs, but by the ldest and mst basic game, Tetris. _________67_________ It lives n in tablets, laptps, smartphnes, and game cnsles (操縱板).
Why is Tetris the game we can’t stp playing? Befre Tetris, vide games were distractins fr teens, persnified by Super Mari Brs. Tetris was different. It didn’t rely n the imitatin f any cartn characters. _________68_________ The game was purely abstract, gemetry (幾何圖案) in real time. It wasn’t just a game. It was an uncrackable cde puzzle that anyne culd play. Yur parents played Tetris, yur friends played Tetris, and yu’ll encunter the same stry in nearly every cuntry n Earth.
_________69_________ It has been included in the Applied Design cllectin at the Museum f Mdern Art in New Yrk. It has been adapted as interactive public art prjected nt the sides f buildings. And it is the subject f an annual Wrld Champinship cmpetitin.
There are plenty f fascinating classic games. Why d we keep cming back t Tetris year after year? Scientists have discvered that Tetris has a unique effect n the human brain, making it the perfect tl fr scientific research. _________70_________ It is a term used in bth medical and ppular literature. It describes the result f repetitive, pattern-based activity that eventually shapes the thughts and imaginatin f an individual. This unique effect has been used in studies at Oxfrd University t treat stress disrder.
That’s pretty impressive fr a few lines f cde written by a lne cmputer scientist at the Russian Academy f Science in 1984. I have n dubt the first game many f us will dwnlad n the new phne will be the latest versin f the mst imprtant game in histry, Tetris.

Researchers studied a grup f fall-prne (易摔跤的) adults, with an average age f 78, living in residential care. 29 peple undertk a 12-week Tai Chi prgramme and the ther 30 frmed the nn-exercise cntrl grup. The exercise prgramme cnsisted f 10 minutes f warming-up exercises, 20 minutes f Sun-style Tai Chi mvement and 5 minutes f cling dwn exercises. During the exercise, traditinal instrumental music was used. It helped the grup maintain slw and cntinuus mvements and prvide a cmfrting effect.
Bth grups underwent a series f tests befre and after the 12-week exercise prgramme. They measured their muscle strength, balance and cnfidence in aviding falls. Researchers analyzed the data and cmpared them with thse f the nn-exercise cntrl grup. They fund that the physical fitness f the exercise grup shwed significant imprvement, with strnger knee and ankle muscles, imprved flexibility and better balance.
Tai Chi, an ancient Chinese martial art (武術(shù)), cnsists f a series f slw, gentle, cntinuus mvements. It is particularly suitable fr ld peple as it helps them t develp strnger muscles and better balance and cncentratin. “Our study shws that lw-intensity exercise such as Tai Chi has great ptential fr health prmtin. It can help ld peple t avid falls by develping their balance, muscle strength and cnfidence,” says Prfessr Sng. “We believe that regular exercise shuld be a fundamental part f caring fr ld peple living bth in the cmmunity and in residential care.”

When Alice Green was a little girl, her parents let her chse an American Girl dll. She picked the ne with the hair clr that matched her wn. “She lked like me, and I felt there was a piece f me in her,” said Alice, nw 17.
But what abut children with rare medical cnditins wh dn’t lk like anyne else? Alice wanted t give these children the same gift she gt as a child. S, ver the past several mnths, she has designed clth dlls fr fur lcal kids wh have facial differences such as birthmarks r surgical marks.
“I really value the beauty in the little things,” Alice said. “Each f these kids is special. I hpe thrugh these dlls they can see themselves in a new light and really accept their beauty.”
Alice, a senir at a high schl in Califrnia, US, gt the idea after reading a magazine stry abut “A Dll Like Me” prject. This charitable prject makes dlls fr children with disabilities. S Alice reached ut t an rganizatin that prvides free medical treatments fr children. She asked if she culd create similar dlls fr sme f its custmers.
Michelle Gilbert, chief fficer f the rganizatin, said she was impressed when she gt her first lk at the dlls Alice created. “It was a very kind and big-hearted gesture t make dlls that will help a child feel like they’re nt alne.”
(Nw listen again, please.)
Questins:
11. Why did Alice make dlls fr special children?
12. What des Michelle Gilbert think f Alice’s actin?
13. Which f the fllwing might Alice agree with the mst?
Questins 14 thrugh 16 are based n the fllwing passage.
Have yu ever had an experience where yu meet smene new, learn their name and think t yurself, “Ww, they really lk just like their name!” What des this mean, exactly? Scientists are suggesting that humans tend t assciate peple’s names with their appearance, and can even guess smene’s name based n hw they lk.
Researchers at the Hebrew University cllected thusands f phts f peple’s faces. They labeled each pht with fur names. Then, they asked vlunteers t guess which f the fur names was crrect.
The vlunteers were able t guess the right name 38 percent f the time. It seems that humans are able t recgnize certain characteristics f faces that can give them clues abut smene’s name.
Hwever, this nly wrks when we’re lking at names within ur wn culture. In additin, the vlunteers were nt as gd at guessing the real names f peple wh use nicknames mre ften than their real names. This shws that a persn’s appearance is affected by their name nly if they use it ften.
This kind f face-name matching happens because f the “self-fulfilling prphecy”. That means, nce a baby is named, the child may well develp int an adult wh lks and acts just as the name suggests. In that way, we tend t becme what ther peple expect us t becme.”
(Nw listen again, please.)
Questins:
14. Accrding t the passage, which f the fllwing are the humans likely t d?
15. What causes this kind f face-name matching t happen, accrding t the passage?
16. Accrding t the research, which f the fllwing is TRUE?
Questins 17 thrugh 20 are based n the fllwing cnversatin.
W: We have with us in the studi tday, Simn, a scientist with an rganizatin searching fr intelligence and life in space. Simn, culd yu tell us smething abut it?
M: Yes, f curse. We’re a scientific rganizatin that started in 1959 t search fr radi signals frm intelligent life in space.
W: S yu believe that there is intelligent life in space.
M: N, I wuldn’t say I believe that. But there may be intelligent life ut there. It’s certainly pssible. Our sun is just ne star amng billins. There are many ther stars in the universe.
W: S why are yu searching fr radi signals?
M: Because the distances in space are s great. If ther life exists, we’re mre likely t knw frm their radi signals.
W: S, yu dn’t believe all thse stries abut peple frm space visiting ur planet?
M: I’m afraid I dn’t. There’s just n real evidence. But that desn’t mean there isn’t ther life in the universe.
W: If there is life, what might it be like?
M: Oh, it’s hard t say. It might nt lk like us. Fr example, n a planet where gravity is lw, peple culd lk like giants.
W: Oh, really, fascinating.
M: Even if we can’t find life n distant stars, we might find simple frms f life in ur wn slar system.
W: That wuld be exciting. S far, have yu fund anything interesting?
M: I can’t say we have. But we’re ging t keep lking.
