22、   In dreaming up the programme Tennis and Literacy for Youth, as a mother, I had hoped to share two of my passions, tennis and reading, with children. Throughout the year, I had advertised for participants at local elementary schools and recruited (招收) volunteers at local high schools. With the help of kind people, I applied for money. I was even able to secure a site for the program.

But on the first day of camp, in spite of my careful planning, things did not go the way I had hoped. Hector and Adrian exchanged blows with their racquet (球拍). Hector struggled to his feet moments later, covering a bloody nose with one hand. Georgie and Eduardo threw balls at each other. Then during reading time, I raced from joyless child to demanding child, unable to convince even one to open a book. They would rather be watching Nickelodeon at home, Eli told me, than “learning stupid tennis and reading boring books.”

I dragged myself home that afternoon. That evening, I called my volunteers together for a meeting, and redesigned the entire curriculum. We created a good-fellow system, where each volunteer paired with a camper to help him or her during reading time. To emphasize praise and progress, we established weekly prize ceremonies, presenting awards for most improved reading, tennis and behavior.

Then Mylea shut the book and asked me, “Can I take this to read it to my mom tonight?” Peering up at her eager face, I couldn’t help myself. I jumped to my feet and wrapped her in a hug, lifting her right off the ground. “It’s all yours!” I said.

Somehow, in the midst of the chaos and the schedule changes and the meetings, these children, in bad mood during reading time, untouched books in their laps, began to find joy in reading a story.

【1】What happened the first day of the programme?

A．Participants watched TV at home.

B．The programme worked out badly.

C．Volunteers failed to do their duties.

D．The plan lived up to the expectation.

【2】What did the author do to make the programme a success?

A．She recruited new volunteers.

B．She replaced the books used.

C．She made adjustments to the plan.

D．She established volunteers’ leading part.

【3】Why did the author lift Mylea off the ground quickly?

A．She sensed something was wrong.

B．She thought Mylea needed comfort.

C．Mylea’s boredom in reading discouraged her.

D．Mylea’s great passion for reading amazed her.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A．An initiative of being volunteers.

B．An innovation to the teaching method.

C．An insight into helping kids overcome difficulties.

D．An experience of introducing reading and tennis to kids.

23、People with genetic syndromes(综合症) sometimes have telltale (泄露秘密的) facial features, but using them to make a quick and cheap diagnosis can be tricky given there are hundreds of possible conditions they may have. A new neural network that analyzes photographs of faces can help doctors narrow down the possibilities.

Yaron Gurovich at biotechnology firm FDNA in Boston and his team built a neural network to look at the gestalt --- or overall impression --- of faces and return a list of the 10 genetic syndromes a person is most likely to have.

They trained the neural network, called DeepGestalt, on 17,000 images correctly labelled to match more than 200 genetic syndromes. The team then asked the AI to identify potential genetic disorders from a further 502 photos of people with such conditions. It included the correct answer 91 per cent of the time.

Gurovich and his team also tested the neural network’s ability to distinguish between the different genetic mutations (变异) that can lead to the same syndrome. They used photographs of people with Noonan syndrome, which can result from mutations in any one of five genes. DeepGestalt correctly identified the genetic source of the physical appearance 64 per cent of the time. It’s clearly not perfect, but it’s still much better than humans are at trying to do this.

As the system makes its assessments, the facial regions that were most helpful in the determination are highlighted and made available for doctors to view. This helps them to understand the relationships between genetic make-up and physical appearance.

The fact that the diagnosis is based on a simple photograph raises questions about privacy. If faces can reveal details about genetics, then employers and insurance providers could, in principle, secretly use such techniques to discriminate against people who have a high probability of having certain disorders. However, Gurovich says the tool will only be available for use by clinicians(临床医生). Clinically, this technology can help narrow down the search space of diagnosis and then confirm through checking genetic markers. Besides, it could perhaps add means of finding other people with the disease and, in turn, help find new treatments or cures.

【1】What’s the best title of this text?

A．Tricky facial features

B．Faces let AI spot genetic disorders

C．Facial features give you away to doctors

D．DeepGestalt: a magic cure for genetic syndromes

【2】What can we know about DeepGestalt?

A．It can be trained to correctly label the images of people.

B．It can correctly identify genetic mutations 91% of the time.

C．It was built to look at faces and identify genetic disorders.

D．It is much better than humans at trying to identify physical appearance.

【3】Why are certain facial regions highlighted in the assessment process?

A．To help confirm the diagnosis.

B．To make the system more understandable.

C．To help the system quickly recognize people.

D．To help identify a condition and make a diagnosis.

【4】What’s the author’s attitude towards the technology?

A．Positive.

B．Neutral.

C．Indifferent.

D．Critical.

24、One of the statements that many experts seem to agree on is the fact that the great things starts to happen the minute you step outside of your comfort zones. As soon as you decide that you are willing to go beyond what is safe, the possibilities are endless. For me, one of the most important things that we should always keep in mind is the fact that growth and comfort can’t coexist.

Personal development author Napoleon Hill once said: “Whatever the mind can understand and believe, the mind can achieve. Regardless of how many times you may have failed in the past or how lofty(崇高的) your aims and hopes may be.” This statement is especially powerful because it reminds us that we are the only ones who can be responsible for how far we will go. However, stepping outside of our comfort zone is probably the most important step to experiencing real change.

For a long time, I knew that I wanted to live in Argentina, so halfway through my bachelor’s degree, I bought a one-way ticket there. While in Argentina, I finished the last two years of my degree online before flying back home for graduation. I currently still live in Argentina, and I can proudly say that taking the necessary steps to make it a reality was one of the most important things I could have done.

This, of course, by no means at all applies to everyone, and I’m not implying we should all buy one-way tickets to foreign countries and see what happens. But it’s important to know that we should recognize what we desire and try to bring our dreams to life.

Living in a comfort zone can trick us into believing that we have an abundant amount of time when, in reality, we all know that years can fly by without us having accomplished much of what we really wanted to do. So why wait? I’m thankful that I didn’t put off my move until a later date because I would have missed out on a lot of amazing life experiences that have shaped me as a person. If we want to experience even a small amount of change, we will have to step outside of it.

【1】Why do people prefer staying in comfort zone?

A．It makes people feel safe.

B．It leads to great things.

C．It is important for growth.

D．It helps make wise decisions.

【2】What does Napoleon Hill’s statement mean?

A．Time and tide wait for no man.

B．The higher you fly, the harder you fail.

C．Failure is the mother of success.

D．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

【3】Which matters most to the author in his/her story?

A．Moving to Argentina.

B．Getting the bachelor’s degree.

C．Studying online.

D．Flying back for graduation.

【4】The author used his/her story to ________.

A．persuade others to follow his/her example

B．encourage others to take immediate action

C．inform people of different foreign culture

D．remind people to be thankful in life

【5】Which one could be the best title?

A．Identify your comfort zone.

B．Value your precious time.

C．Always try something new.

D．Make the best decisions.
