we were the most important thing in the universe.But in the course of the centuries we have come to realize just how many wrong ideas weve had.We have learned of the existence of black holes,waves of space,and of the extraordinary molecular structures in every cell of our bodies.The more we discover,the more we understand that what we dont yet know is greater than what we know.The more powerful our telescopes,the stranger and more unexpected are the heavens we see.The closer we look at the minute detail of matter,the more we discover of its profound structure.In a famous story told by Plato in the seventh book of The Republic,some men are chained at the bottom of a dark cave and see only shadows cast upon a wall by a fire behind them.They think that this is reality.One of them frees himself,leaves the cave and discovers the light of the sun and the wider world.At first the light,to which his eyes are unaccustomed,stuns and confuses him.But eventually he can see and returns excitedly to his companions to tell them what he has seen.They find it hard to believe.We are all in the depths of a cave,chained by our ignorance,our prejudices,and our weak senses reveal only shadows.If we try to see further,we are confused:we are unaccustomed.But we try.This is science.Scientific thinking explores and redraws the world,gradually offering us better and better images of it,teaching us to think in ever more effective ways.Its strength is its capacity to demolish(推翻)old ideas,to reveal new regions of reality,and to construct new,more effective images of the world.This adventure rests upon the entirety of past knowledge,but at its heart is change.The incompleteness and the uncertainty of our knowledge,hung over the abyss(深渊)of what we dont know,does not make life meaningless:it makes it interesting and precious.本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。语篇解读：本文主要告诉我们，我们对宇宙的理解还不够全面。不断去探究未知的世界，会使我们的生活变得更加充实而且有趣。3What does the author want to tell us in the first three paragraphs?AThe new discoveries of the universe prove to be wrong.BMan has created splendid cultures in the course of centuries.COur knowledge of the universe is incomplete and uncertain.DThe existing technologies are enough for further exploration.解析：选 C 推理判断题。根据第一段到第三段的内容，特别是“.realize just how many wrong ideas weve had“.the more we understand that.is greater than what we know这样的文字可以推断现阶段我们对宇宙的认识是不完好和不确定的。4The story told by Plato is meant to _.Amake us aware of the cruelty of reality Bencourage us to explore the unknown world Capplaud the heroic deeds of chasing freedom Djustify our ignorance and prejudice about the world 解析：选 B 推理判断题。这个故事讲的是一个人分开洞穴看到太阳和广阔的世界，说的就是我们应该去探寻我们认知以外的世界。5What does the author want to stress in the passage?AExploring the universe makes our life meaningful.BLeaving things as they are makes our life perfect.CNew discoveries of the universe will cause confusion.DPast knowledge prevents us constructing a new world.解析：选 A 推理判断题。通过阅读全文，尤其是最后一段可知作者要强调的是知道自己知识的缺乏，并不断去探究未知的世界，并不会使我们的生活变得索然无味，相反的是会使我们的生活变得有趣和珍贵。C 本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。(2021三模)One day in 1995,a large,heavy middleaged man robbed two Pittsburgh banks in broad daylight.He didnt wear a mask and he smiled at surveillance cameras before walking out of each bank.Later that night,police arrested a surprised McArthur Wheeler.When they showed him the surveillance tapes,Wheeler stared in disbelief.“But I wore the juice，he mumbled.Apparently,Wheeler thought that rubbing lemon juice on his skin would make him invisible to videotape cameras.After all,lemon juice is used as invisible ink so,as long as he didnt come near a heat source,he should have been completely invisible.The case caught the eye of the psychologist David Dunning at Cornell University,who enlisted his graduate student,Justin Kruger,to see what was going on.They reasoned that,while almost everyone holds favourable views of their abilities in various social and intellectual fields,some people mistakenly assess their abilities as being much higher than they actually are.This“illusion of confidence is now called the“DunningKruger effect，and describes the cognitive bias to inflate selfassessment.To investigate this phenomenon in the lab,Dunning and Kruger designed some clever experiments.In one study,they asked undergraduate students a series of questions about grammar,logic and jokes,and then asked each student to estimate his or her score overall,as well as their relative rankings compared to the other students.Interestingly,students who scored the lowest in these cognitive tasks always overestimated how well they did by a lot.Students who scored in the bottom estimated that they had performed better than twothirds of the other students!Sure,its typical for people to overestimate their abilities.The problem is that when people are incompetent,not only do they reach wrong conclusions and make unfortunate choices,but also they are robbed of the ability to realize their mistakes.In a semesterlong study of college students,good students could better predict their performance on future exams given feedback about their scores and rankings.However,the poorest performers showed no recognition,despite clear and repeated feedback that they were doing badly.Instead of being confused or 本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。thoughtful about their incorrect ways,incompetent people insist that their ways are correct.As Charles Darwin wrote in The Descent of Man(1871):“Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.Interestingly,really smart people also fail to accurately selfassess their abilities.As much as Dand Fgrade students overestimate their abilities,Agrade students underestimate theirs.The difference is that competent people can and do adjust their selfassessment given appropriate feedback,while incompetent individuals cannot.语篇解读：本文主要阐述了“邓宁克鲁格效应。研究说明有才能的人会根据各方面的反应来调整自己的思路，而无知的人往往看不到自己的缺乏，盲目自信，固执己见。6Which of the following statements about the DunningKruger effect is true?AThe effect is true for everyone in daily life.BIt suggests that most people lack cognitive abilities.CSome people are overconfident about their abilities.DThe conclusion is drawn based on a series of bank robberies.解析：选 C 细节理解题。根据第二段的内容，特别是其中的“some people mistakenly assess their abilities as being much higher than they actually are以及“.DunningKruger effect，and describes the cognitive bias to inflate selfassessment可知，邓宁克鲁格效应指的是那些过度高估自己才能的，过度自信的人。7What do the college students behaviors mentioned in the experiments prove?AFeedback plays a significant role in estimating ones ability.BIncompetent people have a rigid attitude towards their choice.CGood students can predict their future performance accurately.DPeople cant rely on their previous behavior to make adjustments.解析：选 B 细节理解题。根据第四段倒数第二句“Instead of being confused or thoughtful about their incorrect ways,incompetent people insist that their ways are correct.可知，才能差的人不会去反思自己的不正确的方法，而是坚持他们的方法是正确的。所以说他们非常的固执。本卷贰 O

ignorance.BIt is difficult for people to evaluate their real competence.CIllusion of confidence is the major source of peoples failure.DThose with great abilities often have a low opinion of themselves.解析：选 A 推理判断题。本文主要阐述了“邓宁克鲁格效应。研究说明有才能的人会根据各方面的反应来调整自己的思路，而无知的人往往看不到自己的缺乏，盲目自信，固执己见。所以真正的知识是理解一个人无知的程度。D(2021苏、锡、常、镇三模)Ive never seen the night nor seen a star;Ive seen neither spring nor fall nor winter.I was born at the end of the Reining Age(刹车时代),just as the Earths rotation(旋转)was coming to a final stop.The Reining lasted for 42 years,three years longer than the Unity Government had planned.My mother once told me about the time our family witnessed the last sunset.The Sun had ever so slowly crept toward the horizon,almost as if it had stopped moving altogether.In the end,it took three days and three nights to finally set.Naturally,that was the end of all“days and all“nightsThe Eastern Hemisphere(半球)was covered in weak light for a long time then,perhaps for a dozen years or so with the Sun hiding just beyond the horizon its rays reflected by half of the sky.It was during that long sunset that I was born.Dusk did not mean darkness.The Northern Hemisphere was lit up by the Earth Engines.These 本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。giant engines had been raised all across Asia and North America;only the solid plates beneath those two continents could resist the great pushing forces they exerted.There were about 12,000 Earth Engines built and distributed across the Asian and American plains.From my home I could see the bright plasma plumes(等离子气柱)of several hundred Earth Engines.Just imagine a titanic palace,one as large as the Parthenon on the Acropolis.Now imagine countless titanic pillars rising from that palace,reaching to the heavens,each releasing brilliant,bluish white light like a titanic shining tube.And then there is you;you are a microbe on the palaces floor.This only begins to paint the picture of the world we lived in.This picture,however,is not yet complete.In order to survive the melting temperature of the expanding sun,we have to push the Earth away from it.First,the Earth must be stopped from rotating.Only the forces acting tangentially(正切地)to the Earths rotation could slow it,so the Earth Engines had to be built to a specific angle.Those gigantic pillars of light were leaning to that angle.Now imagine what that meant for our palace,with its pillars all leaning on the point of falling down!Many who came from the Southern Hemisphere went mad when suddenly seeing this awesome view.Worse than the view was the burning heat released by the Earth Engines.Outdoors the temperature was stuck at around 160 to 180 degrees,forcing us to wear special suits just to leave the house.The extremely high temperatures often brought pouring rains.It was always a terrifying scene when the beam of an Earth Engine cut through dark clouds.The clouds scattered the brilliant,bluish white light of the beam,erupting it into endless rainbow light that covered the entire sky like white hot magma(岩浆)To my generation,born in the Northern Hemisphere,all of this was perfectly normal and natural,just like the Sun,stars and Moon had been to generations before the Reining Age.We called the entire history of the human race that had come before us the PreSolar Age;what a fascinating and golden era that had truly been!本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。本卷贰 O 贰贰年贰月捌日编写；出题人：令狐学复；欧阳化语；令狐理总。The Reining Age left the earth with a horrifying result.The sea tides,quickened by the Earth Engines,had swallowed two out of every three cities in the Northern Hemisphere;then the global increase in temperatures melted the polar icecap,resulting in floods that spread to the Southern Hemisphere.Thirty years earlier my grandfather had witnessed giant 300 foot waves that had engulfed Shanghai.Even now,he could never tell us about it without his gaze slipping into a thousandmile stare.Our planet had already changed beyond recognition before it even set out on its journey.Who knew what hardships were waiting for us on our long travels through outer space?语篇解读：本文是一篇科幻故事，主要梦想了“刹车时代地球、太阳的运行状况和人们的生活情况。10What happened when the author was born?AThe earth had stopped turning for forty two years.BThe sun was making its last fall towards the horizon.CAll
