in the United States are red,blue or green,but almost 75 percent of new cars sold in the United States are black,white,silver orgray.Les Jackson is a reporter who writes about cars.He says the color1 s of cars Americans choose do not show dirt.He says that means the owners wash their cars less in order to save money.And he notes some areas that are suffering from water shortages do not permit people to wash their cars often.Dan Benton works for a company called Axalta,which makes supplies for international car makers.He says white cars are often sold more expensive than cars of other color1 s.And he notes that white cars“absorb(吸收)less energy”than cars of other color1 s.This means temperatures inside them are lower in warmer areas.Benton also says research at Monash University in Australia suggests that there is a lower risk of crashes during the day for white cars compared with darker ones.Car buyers in other countries also like white.Jane Harrington works for PPG Industries,a company that makes paint for cars.She said in China,buyers say white makes a small car look bigger.About 11 percent of cars sold in North America are red and 8 percent are blue.Green has become less popular.Benton notes that in the mid-1990s green was the most popular color1 in North America.Today,green is hard to find.Sometime in the future,people may not have to choose the color1 of their cars technology may let owners change their cars paint color1 anytime.4.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A.Most Americans dont like red cars.B.People in America are not allowed to wash their cars.C.Many people prefer to choose white cars in America.D.Americans may consider the cost of cleaning when choosing cars.5.Why do many people choose white cars?A.They are much cheaper than cars of

member of Axalta.B.Most Americans rarely wash their cars.C.PPG Industries mainly produces cars in China.D.Green cars were once popular in North America.7.What does the text mainly tell us?A.Choices of car color1 s B.How to buy a good car.C.Differences of car color1 s.D.Popular car color1 s in history.C Why isnt science better?Look at career incentive(激励).There are oftensubstantial gaps between the idealized and actual versions of those people whose work involves providing a social good.Government officials are supposed to work for their constituents.Journalists are supposed to provide unbiased reporting and penetrating analysis.And scientists are supposed to relentlessly probe the fabric of reality with the most rigorous and skeptical of methods.All too often,however,what should be just isnt so.In a number of scientific fields,published findings turn out not toreplicate(复制),or to have smaller effects than,what was initially claimed.Plenty of science does replicate meaning the experiments turn out the same way when you repeat them-but the amount that doesnt is too much for comfort.But there are also waysin which scientists increase their chances of getting it wrong.Running studies with small samples,mining data for correlations and forming hypotheses to fit an experiments results after the fact are just some of the ways to increase the number of false discoveries.Its not like we dont know how to do better.Scientists who study scientific methods have known about feasible remedies for decades.Unfortunately,their advice often falls ondeaf ears.Why?Why arent scientific methods better than they are?In a word:incentives.But perhaps not in the way you think.In the 1970s,psychologists and economists began to point out the danger in relying on quantitative measures for social decision-making.For example,when public schools are evaluated by students performance on standardized tests,teachers respond by teaching“to the test”.In turn,the test serves largely as of how well the school can prepare students for the test.We can see this principleoften summarized as“when a measure becomes a target,it ceases to be a good measure”playing out in the realm of research.Science is a competitive enterprise.There are far more credentialed(授以证书的)scholars and researchers than there are university professorships or comparably prestigious research positions.Once someone acquires a research position,there is additional competition for tenure grant funding,and support and placement for graduate students.Due to this competition for resources,scientists must be evaluated and compared.How do you tell if someone is a good scientist?An oft-used metric is the number of publications one has in peer-reviewed journals,as well as the status of those journals.Metrics like these make it straightforward to compare researchers whose work may otherwise be quite different.Unfortunately,this also makes these numbers susceptible to exploitation.If scientists are motivated to publish often and in high-impact journals,we might expect them to actively try to game the system.And certainly,some doas seen in recent high-profile cases of scientific fraud(欺诈).If malicious fraud is the prime concern,then perhaps the solution is simply heightened alertness.However,most scientists are,I believe,genuinely interested in learning about the world,and honest.The problem with incentives is that they can shape cultural norms without any intention on the part of individuals.8.Which of the following is TRUE about the general trend in scientific field?A.Scientists are persistently devoted to exploration of reality.B.The research findings fail to achieve the expected effect.C.Hypotheses are modified to highlight the experiments results.D.The amount of science that does replicate is comforting.9.What doesdeaf earsin the fourth paragraph probably refer to?A.The public.B.The incentive initiators.C.The peer researchers.D.The high-impact journal editors.10.Which of the following does the author probably agree with?A.Good scientists excel in seeking resources and securing research positions.B.Competition for resources inspires researchers to work in a more skeptical way.C.All the credentialed scholars and researchers will not take up university professorships.D.The number of publication reveals how scientists are bitterly exploited.11.According to the author,what might be a remedy for the fundamental problem in scientific research?A.High-impact journals are encouraged to reform the incentives for publication.B.The peer-review process is supposed to scale up inspection of scientific fraud.C.Researchers are motivated to get actively involved in gaming the current system.D.Career incentives for scientists are expected to consider their personal intention.D Ive never been the kind of person to say,“its the thought that counts”when it comes to gifts.That was until a couple of weeks ago,when my kids gave me a present thatblew me away.For years now,Ive been wanting to sell our home,the place where my husband and I raised our kids.But to me,this house is much more than just a building.In the front room,theres a wall that has hundreds of pencil lines,marking the progress of my childrens growth.Every growth stage is marked in grey,with each childs name and the date they were measured.Of all the objects and all the memories,its this one thing in a home thats the hardest to leave behind.Friends I know have returned home after work only to discover their wall of heights has been freshly painted over.A new paint job wouldnt normally be greeted by tears,but erasing that evidence of motherhood hurts more than it should.Our kids grow in so many ways,but the wall is physical evidence of their progress,right there for everyone to see.Over the years,Ive talked about how much I would hate leaving that wall behind when I moved,even though the last marks were made 10 years ago when my kids stopped growing.So one day,while I was at work,my childrendecided to do something about it.They hired Jacquie Manning,a professional photographer whose work is about capturing(捕捉)the beautiful things in life,from clear lakes and skies to diamonds and ballgowns(舞会礼服).She came to our house while I was at work,and over several hours,took photos of the hundreds of drawings and lines,little grey fingerprints(手印),and old marks.Somehow,she managed to photograph all those years of memories perfectly.Afterwards,she put all the photos together into one image,transforming them into a beautiful history of my family.Three weeks later,my childrens wonderful gift made its way to mea life-size photo of the pencil lines and fingerprints that represents entire lifetimes of love and growth.12.The underlined phrase in Para.I“blew me away”probably means“_”.A.attracted me B.surprised me C.accepted me D.refused me 13.What does the house really mean to the author?A.A house.B.Buildings.C.An object.D.Memories.14.What surprised the friends I know after work?A.Finding the wall repainted.B.Erasing the fingerprints.C.Greeting them by tears.D.Leaving the wall unfinished.15.What is the best title for the text?A.Gift Made with Love B.Buildings Made by Children C.A Very Wonderful Painting D.A Family History 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)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 You cant help
