According to the Trivers-Willard hypothesis（假说）,a son given lots of resources can become a gentlemanbut parents with few resources tend to invest them in daughters, who generally find it easier to be a fair maiden.Studying parental investment after birth is difficult, however. The new study looked for a standard of measurement of such investment that met several criteria: it shouldn't be affected by sex differences in the need for resources; it should measure investment rather than outcomes; and it should be objective.Study author Shige Song, a sociologist at Queens College, City University of New York, examined spending on pink and blue backpacks purchased in China in 2015 from a large retailer, JD. com. He narrowed the data to about 5, 000 bags: blue backpacks bought by families known to have at least one boy and pink ones bought by families known to have at least one girl. The results showed that wealthier families spent more on blue than pink backpacks suggesting greater investment in sons. Poorer families spent more on pink packs than blue ones. The findings were published in Evolution and Human Behavior,Song's evidence for the Trivers-Willard hypothesis is "indirect" but “pretty convincing,M says Rosemary Hopcroft, a sociologist at the. University of North Carolina at Charlotte, who was not connected with the new study. Hopcroft reported in 2016 that U. S. fathers with high-status occupations were more likely to send their sons to private school than their daughters, while fathers with lower-status jobs more often enrolled their female children. Although the new study does not prove the families were buying the blue backpacks for boys and pink ones for girls, Hopcroft notes that “it's a clever and interesting paper, and it's a rather unusual use of big data.” 1、What does the writer intend to do in Paragraph 2?A. Introduce an earlier study.B. Identify children's needs.C. Assess the influence of a study.D. Explore into parental investment.2、What offers a challenge for the new study?A. The investment meeting several criteria.B. The measurement of eventual outcomes.C. Different demands for resources between sexes.D. Consistent standards in measuring parental investment.3、What can be learned from Song's research?A. The new study was done in 2015.B. Big data was sampled for research.C. Preference was offered to consumers.D. Blue packs were favored over pink ones.4、Which of the following is likely to match Hopcroffs remark on Song's research?A. It9s entertaining.B. Ifs well-designed.C. It's unbelievable.D. Ifs unusual.22.（8分） When Gitanjali Rao shared how she likes wfinding solutions to real problems", it was hard to imagine this dynamic 11-year-old girl could settle a problem that has escaped scientists for years.In just three months, Rao came up with a device （装置）that can replace the costly and lengthy tests currently used to reliably determine lead levels in our fresh water. Inspired by the current litigation （诉讼）in Flint, Michigan, a case of water pollution from 2014 to 2015, Rao designed a new testing system that resulted in her being named America's Top Young Scientist for 2017.Rao had been following the water problem for about two years. She was amazed by the number of people affected by lead pollution in water and wanted to do something to change this. Gitanjali spent months trying to convince local high schools and colleges to give her lab time to continue her experiment. At home, Gitanjali worked on her project in the “science room" she asked her parents to create for her. Rao has created a device that uses three parts: a cartridge, a Bluetooth reader and an app. To put it simply, the cartridge contains carbon nanotubes（纳米管）that react to lead. This reaction is then registered by the Bluetooth reader, which sends a signal to a mobile app that can tell you immediately if your water is safe to drink.Rao appropriately named the device Tethys after the Greek goddess of fresh water, and is hoping to make a little improvement to get the device on the market. While we may not be aware of any lead pollution present in our aging pipelines, lead poisoning can cause delays in physical and mental development. With Rao believing that the "purpose of science is to make a difference her incredible invention could make a difference to millions of people in the United States.1、What do we know about Rao's device?A. It's cheap and quick.B. It's cheap and inaccurate.C. It's expensive and reliable.D. Ifs portable and time-consuming.2、What made Rao have the idea of designing the device?A. Her parents9 suggestions.B. The name of the Greek goddess.C. Her interest in settling real problems.D. The water pollution litigation in Flint.3、What do the carbon nanotubes function as?A. Sending immediate signals.B. Recording the reaction results.C. Detecting the presence of lead.D. Showing the water quality results.4、What does the author think of Rao's invention?A. It will lead Rao to make a fortune.B. It will help millions of Americans drink safe water.C. It will promote the development of science in America.D. It will soon settle the lead-polluted problem thoroughly.23. （8 分）Tracking Shots: This Week in FilmThe Incomparable Rose HartmanQuad CinemaSaturday to SundayIt is a gorgeously shot, sharply edited portrait of photographer Hartman, who in the 1970s and 1980s haunted Studio 54. Hartman made a career of capturing fashion designers, models, musicians, and movie stars in half-guarded moments, somewhere between unaware and aping for the lens.ChurchillAngelika Film CenterMonday to TuesdayTiventieth century's most awesome leader, a man whose history includes two world wars! But what happens when the story being told feels emotionally false and factually bogus? Churchill, a new drama starring the great Brian Cox, is so full of movie cliches that it's sometimes hard not to giggleand oneshould never laugh at the prime minister.Handsome DevilCinema VillageThursday to FridayThe Ireland of the teen film Handsome Devil is a place where young boys are encouraged to do only one thing: play rugby. If rugby isn't your thing, or if you dig things that aren't rugby-related, you're immediately dismissed as gay. Thafs unfortunately the case for the main characterginger-haired Ned. Indeed, it's more like a coming of age film than a comedy.Past LifeLandmark SunshineWednesdayAlthough Past Life is based on real events, Avi Nesher latest film plays unapologetically like melodrama（情节 剧）"a bit too much at times. Its insistence that guilt-ridden Baruch Milch can recite to his daughters, more than thirty years later, every single word he wrote in a notebook while hiding from the Nazis in Poland during World War II strains credulity.1、Which film may interest people who like taking pictures?A. ChurchillB. Past LifeC. Handsome DevilD. The Incomparable Rose Hartman2、Where can the audience go to enjoy a comedy this week?A. Quad CinemaB. AngeHka Film CenterC. Cinema VillageD. Landmark Sunshine3、What do we know about the film Past life?A. It is fictional.B. It was shown on weekend.C. Avi Nesher was the main character.D. It was concerned with the life of Jewish.24. （8 分）A recent study led by researchers from the National University of Singapore （NUS） has found a clear link between the color of a taxi and its accident rate. An analysis of 32 months of detailed taxi, driver and accident data from two fleets of yellow and blue taxis in Singapore suggested that yellow taxis have fewer accidents than blue taxis. The higher visibility （能见度）of yellow makes it less difficult for drivers to avoid getting into accidents with yellow taxis, leading to a lower accident rate.The study was led by Prof Ho. To test whether there was a relationship between the color of a taxi and the number of accidents the taxi had, the research team analysed data collected by the largest taxi company in Singapore. The researchers found that yellow taxis have about 2. 1 fewer accidents per 1,000 taxis per month.They also studied the economic effect of changing the color of the entire fleet of taxis to yellow. The Singapore taxi company involved in the study owns about 12,300 taxis in a ratio（比例）of one yellow to three blue taxis. If a commercial decision is made to switch from blue to yellow taxis, 32.2 fewer accidents will occur per month or 913 fewer accidents per year.Assuming an average repair cost of $1,000 per car and a downtime of six days, the color of all taxis to yellow could produce an annual saving of $ 2 million.“We are eager to continue to validate （证实）the findings of our study by looking at the use of yellow in other types of public transport, such as school buses. For example, we hope to compare the accident rates of yellow school buses against those of other colors to find out if yellow is indeed a safer color for school buses. Besides, we're also interested to look at private-hire vehicles and do a comparison of the accident rates of vehicles that are of different colors." Explained Prof Ho.1、Why do yellow taxis result in fewer accidents?A. Because yellow can be seen more easily.B. Because yellow signals a warning of danger.C. Because drivers tend to be more careful in yellow taxis.D. Because people act more quickly in yellow surroundings.2、Whafs Prof Ho'§ study based on?A. Physical risks taxi passengers experience.B. The economic effect of changing taxi color.C. Data from Singapore's largest taxi company.D. Personal reports from taxi drivers worldwide.3、What do Prof Ho'§ words in the last paragraph suggest?A. School buses should be painted yellow.B. Their findings are worth popularizing.C. Their study will be furthered.D. Yellow should be widely used in public transport.4、What can be the best title for the text?A. Caution: yellow taxis ahead B. Safer to ride in yellow taxisC. Why are yellow taxis preferred? D. How can colors help prevent accidents?25（10 分） A 60-year-old homeless woman named Smokie has been sleeping outside in the dirt a few doors down from a man named Elvis Summers.Most mornings, she stops by Elvis's Los Angeles apartment and asks if he has any recyclable materials for her. Through these conversations, they struck up a friendship.One morning, Elvis saw a news article about man in Oakland who has been making tiny houses out of deserted materials. He was inspired to put off paying a few bills so he could buy the wood and hardware to make Smokie a brand new shelter it took him five days to build it, and now, for the first time in ten years, Smokie a brand new shelter. It took him five days to build it, and now, for the first time in ten years, Smokie has a place to hang the sign. "Home Sweet Home”.“I had nowhere to realty build it, so I just built it in the street outside of my apartment,Elvis told Good News Network. uThe local LAPD police have been super cool, and have told me they support itas long as we move it to a different spot every 72 hours.”He made this pretty time-lapse（延时的）video showing how he did it. The materials, including two locks on the front door and strong wheels for moving it around, cost him about $500."I've met so many homeless people, good people,M Elvis said in an email, “Since I built Smokie's , I've had several people asking me to make them a tiny home and ifs turned into much more than just the one house I wanted to build.”Although he runs an online retail store that sells EDM clothes, he has decided to launch an ambitious project to fund more shelters. He plants to get lighter a
