11、cation. Fifty years ago, in a primary school classroom, two boys aged 11 took an examination called the 11-plus, (21)_ would make decisions about the rest of their lives. Paul passed and went to a “grammar school”. Baz failed the examination and went to a “secondary modern school”. They did not see

12、each other again for years.Many grammar schools (22)_ (establish) hundreds of years ago to teach the Latin language to children who were not from rich families. They encouraged students to study (23)_ they were 18 and then to go to university. Secondary modern school students left at 16, usually wit

13、h fewer qualifications than grammar school students. Baz says the secondary modern school had (24)_ (few) resources and the quality of teaching was not as good.Things have changed. In the 1960s and the 1970s “comprehensive schools” were created. Today, 90 percent children aged 11 to 16 from the same

14、 area to the same school without (25)_ (take) any entry examination.The British often disagrees about the best way (26)_ (educate) their children. Many people say that comprehensive schools help more children to succeed because they provide everybody (27)_ similar opportunities in a fairer way. Anot

15、her view, though, is that more intelligent children, especially (28)_ from poor homes are better supported at grammar schools. Now, the government plans to open new grammar schools (29)_ _ almost two million children will go to the same type of school that Paul attended.And Paul and Baz? Aged 60, th

16、ey met again and compared (30)_ had happened to them. After university, Paul qualified as a teacher. Baz went to work in a factory at 16 and later became an engineer. In fact, Baz had a much higher salary than Paul so perhaps life is fair after all.Section BA. impressive B. movements C. eventually D

17、. extreme E. comparisonF. reverse G. unloved H. partnership I. absolutely J. mask K. appliedTheres nothing more annoying than settling down to sleep and hearing the sound of a mosquito buzzing around you.The only thought most of us ever give to this noise is “I need to get rid of this insect, immedi

18、ately”, but it turns out that the mosquito is actually quite a(n) _31_ creature.A term of scientists from Oxford University in the UK, in _32_ with the Royal Veterinary College in London and Chiba University in Japan, recently published a study that found some interesting facts about the worlds most

19、 _33_ insect.By placing eight cameras inside a tiny film studio, the scientists could study several mosquitoes up close. The high-tech cameras filmed the insects at 1,000 frames per second, meaning the scientists were able to study the insects _34_ in never-before-seen detail. However, it wasnt alwa

20、ys straightforward.“Recording mosquitoes during free-flight represented a huge technical challenge due to their small size, _35_ wing beat frequency, and the presence of large antennae and legs that can _36_ the view of their wings,” Simon Walker of Oxford University, co-author of the study, wrote.P

21、ublished in the journal Nature, the study found that mosquitoes flap their wings around 800 times a second. As a _37_, house flies flap their wings about 200 times a second, and hummingbirds 50 times a second.Richard Bomphrey of the Royal Veterinary College, the studys leader, believes that mosquito

22、es have a unique flying method that sets them apart from other flying insects.“We predicted that they must make use of clever tricks, as the wings _38_ their direction at the end of each half-stroke,” he wrote in the study.Hopefully, the discovery of the mosquitos special abilities will be of benefi

23、t to engineers in the future. The findings could lead to better aircraft, or even improvement to tools like lenses or pumps.But the scientists hope their study can one day be _39_ to new developments in more human-focused use.“The more we know about mosquitoes, the better our chance of understanding

24、 their flight behavior, how they carry disease and _40_ how to stop them from doing so,” Walker wrote.III. Reading ComprehensionSection AArtists have long claimed alcohol and other drugs as inspiration for their creativity. But is there really a(n) _41_ between intoxication（醉酒）and inspiration? A rec

25、ent study published in Consciousness and Cognition explored the effects of moderate drunkenness on peoples creativity. The authors suggest that alcohols well-known effect in _42_ executive function may be helpful for these types of creation problems: “Sometimes a reduced ability to _43_ ones attenti

26、on can have positive implications for select cognitive tasks,” they write.The findings raise the question of whether drugs that _44_ attention and focus, in particular, stimulants（兴奋剂）, would have the opposite effect on creative thinking _45_, very little research has been done on the issue, and wha

27、t results exist so far have been mixed. The outcomes may well vary according to individual _46_ to the drugs. _47_, some research has found that while stimulants can _48_ test performance for those who are less intelligent, for the smartest folks, the drugs can have the opposite effect.If less execu

28、tive function is linked to more creativity, this may also explain why artists, writers and musicians appear to be more _49_ to have an addiction. Perhaps creative people are more likely than others to be _50_ to drugs in the first place, as a possible source of inspiration. And then, if reduced exec

29、utive function is _51_ in part for their initial talent, this, too, could make them more easily influenced by _52_ once they start using. Having less executive control before you even take drugs means youll have less ability to stop once you start.Whatever the real relationship between drunkenness,

30、addiction and art, the authors _53_ that their study findings dont give people _54_ to get drunk to “inspire the muse（冥想）.” Co-author Jennifer Wiley, associate professor of psychology at the University of Illinois at Chicago, told the British Psychological Societys Research Digest: “We tested what h

31、appens when people are slightly drunk-not when people drank to _55_. There could be no argument from these findings that drinking excessively would have the same effects.”A glass of wine or two, however, may occasionally help.41.A. attractionB. reservationC. connectionD. decoration42.A. strengthenin

35、so good. My husband just lost his job and my son is up to his old tricks again. The truth is, I dont know how Im going to get through the holidays.”Then she gave the cashier food stamps（食品券）.My heart ached. I wanted to help but didnt know how. Should I offer to pay for her groceries, ask for her hus

36、bands resume?As I walked into the parking lot, I spotted the women returning her shopping cart. I remembered something in my purse that I thought could help her. It wasnt a handful of cash or an offer of a job for her husband, but maybe it would make her life better.My heart pounded as I approached

37、the woman.“Excuse me,” I said, my voice trembling a bit. “I couldnt help overhearing what you said to the cashier. It sounds like youre going through a really hard time right now. Im so sorry. Id like to give you something.”I handed her the small card from my purse.When the woman read the cards only

38、 two words, she began to cry. And through her tears, she said, “You have no idea how much this means to me.”I was a little startled by her reply. Having never anything like this before, I didnt know what kind of reaction I might receive. All I could think to say was, “Oh. Would it be OK to give you

39、a hug?”After we embraced, I walked back to my car - and began to cry, too.The words on the card?“You Matter.”A few weeks earlier, a colleague gave me a similar card as encouragement for a project I was working on.

Every beach is public and free. “The coast is a perfect place to watch sea lions sun themselves or simply see the mighty Pacific weaves crash in the sunset follo

44、wed by a seafood feast in one of the busy fishing communities located between the coves（小海湾）,” says Bramblett. July and August arent peak gray whale migration season, but theres still a good chance you could catch a glimpse of some of the 200 whales that spend the summers off the Oregon coast.SLEEPN

45、ext to a lighthouse. Imagine yourself an ancient mariner when you book a room overlooking the Pacific Ocean at the Heceta Head Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast in Yachats, Oregon. The working lighthouse, which dated to 1894, cast a bright beam 21 miles out to sea, making it the brightest light on the Or

51、e popular local communityD. sun and fun of the less crowed beach.(C)With the coming of big data age, data science is supposed to be starved for, of which the adaption can point a profound change in corporate competitiveness. Companies, both born in the digital era and traditional world are showing o

52、ff their skills in data science. Therefore, it seems to have been creating a great demand for the experts of this type.Mr. Carlos Guestrin, machine learning professor from University of Washington argues that all software applications will need inbuilt intelligence within five years, making data sci

53、entists-people trained to analyze large bodies of information-key workers in this emerging “cognitive” technology economy. There are already critical applications that depend on machine learning, a subfield of data science, led by recommendation programs, fraud detection systems, forecasting tools a

54、nd applications for predicting customer behavior.Many companies that are born digital-particularly internet companies that have a great number of real-time customer interactions to handle-are all-in when it comes to data science. Pinterest, for instance, maintains more than 100 machine learning mode

55、ls that could be applied to different classes of problems, and it constantly fields requests from managers eager to use this resource to deal with their business problem.The factors weighing on many traditional companies will be the high cost of mounting a serious machine-learning operation. Netflix

56、 is estimated to spend $ 150m a year on a single application and the total bill is probably four times that once all its uses of the technology are taken into account.Another problem for many non-technology companies is talent. Of the computer science experts who use Kaggle, only about 1,000 have de

57、ep learning skills, compared to 100,000 who can apply other machine learning techniques, says Mr. Goldbloom. He adds that even some big companies of this type are often reluctant to expand their pay scales to hire the top talent in this field.The biggest barrier to adapting to the coming era of “sma

58、rt” applications, however, is likely to be cultural. Some companies, such as General Electric, have been building their own Silicon Valley presence to attract and develop the digital skills they will need.Despite the obstacles, some may master this difficult transition. But companies that were built

59、, from the beginning, with data science at their center, are likely to represent serious competition.63.Which one is obstacle for many traditional companies to popularize learning operation?A. Technological problem.B. Expert crisis.C. High cost.D. Customer interactions.64.What can not be inferred fr
