They do _16_ in class. But after an exam, they always feel that they did well. This is called the Dunning-Kruger effect (XR宁-克鲁格效应).People with the Dunning-Kruger effect always wrongly feel that they are doing well and don't know their own _17_ abilities (能力).David Dunning, a scientist from Cornell University, did a experiment(实验)about the effect. He and his team asked some students to take a grammar _18_. After the test, the students were asked to _19_ how many marks they had got.Dunning and his team found that the students getting the _20_ marks thought highly about their abilities. In _21_, their grammar ability was quite poor but they thought they were in the top 30% of test-takers.This is not only true for students. Many people in the working world also _22_ this. One study made in some _23_ found that 32 to 42 percent of the workers thought they were in the top 5%. In a study at the University of Nebraska, more than 90% of the teachers thought _24_ better than average level (平:均水平), according to Forbes. But on the other hand, people with better level _25_ they don't know everything. They know others might be better than them. _26_ they may be more modest (谦虚的)and may not feel very confident.Perhaps you think people with the Dunning-Kruger effect are silly and hopeless, but actually they're still _27_. According to Dunning and his team, these people feel that way because they _28_ don't know that they could do better, or they don't know what good _29_ is really like. Actually, they will be able to see the difference between their poor performance and goodperformance _30_ training properly.B.badlyC.strangely0.perfectlyB.greatC.similarD.poorB.experimentC.gameD.lessonB.chooseC.guesspareB. worstC.bestD.mostB.factC.personD.returnB.remindC.achieve0.experienceB.schoolsC. police stations0.hospitalsB.himselfC.herselfD.themselvesB.expectC.forgetD.rememberB.ButC.SoD.lfB.hopefulC.nervousD.braveB.hardlyC.seriouslyD.deeplyB.decisionC.performance0.situationB.sinceC.afterD.for三、阅读理解(3140小题,每小题2分,41-45小题,每小题1分,本题共计25分) 阅读下面四篇材料,然后从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。ACome to our new library to enjoy wonderful books!Beyond Belief: The Science of the Future超越信仰:未来科学The book is for children aged 6-12.

But did you know that he almost wasn't created?Stan Le came up with the idea for Spider-Man in 1962. He was different from what had come before. He was a high school student who had everyday problems like us. Back then, superheroes were strong grown men who saved people. Teenagers were helpers. The heroes didn't have to worry about real-life problems like working for money and caring for an old family member. They flew in the sky and fought aliens (夕卜星人).Stan Lee was about to change that.When Stan told his boss(老板)about Spider-Man, his boss said it was "the worst idea" he'd ever heard, reported the Vintage News. For a time, it seemed like that was the end for Stan's friendly neighborhood hero. But then, Stan had an idea. One of Marvel Comic (漫画)books was going to stop. According to Stan Lee, "Nobody cared what you put inside a book that was going to be killed.H So, Stan Lee teamed up with artist Steve Ditko, who made Spider-Man's look. Together, they put Spider-Man onto the covers of the 15th and last issue(期)of the comic book Amazing Fantasy.Spider-Man was a great success. The issue with the superhero on its cover sold quite well. And so, Spider-Man has his own comic book, The Amazing Spider-Man. He has become one of the most beloved fictional (虚构的)characters of all time.

Have you ever thought about why you can enjoy all of these things? That's because of one important organ (器官)-the ear.You may wonder: how do our ears work? The ear has three different parts: the outer ear, the middle ear and the inner ear. The outer ear is the part you can see. It collects sound around you. The sound then travels down to the middle ear, the inner ear and then to your brain (大脑).Your ears never stop working, even when you are asleep! Your ears continue hearing sounds, but your brain just ignores(忽略)them. That's why you may sometimes wake up in the middle of the night- your brain heard something, but you don't know what it was, since you were asleep.But ears do more than hear. They help your balance(平衡), too. In the inner ear; there are organs that are filled with liquid (液体)and covered in small hairs. When you move your head, the liquid and hairs move, too. They send messages to your brain about where your head is.More surprisingly, ears even help with tasting food. Of course, you don't actually taste food with your ears. There are nerves (神经)running through the middle ear and those nerves join the tongue (舌)to the brain. If something wrong happens to your ears, it's difficult for you to tell different tastes apart, according to the People's Daily website.The ears are truly important organs with many functions(功能).Everyone should make sure to protect their ears as well as they can.41. In Paragraph 1, the writer leads into the topic "the ear" by.A.telling storiesB.asking questionsC.giving examplesD. sharing experiences42. The outer ear.A.wakes you up earlyB. helps you taste food quicklyC. sends messages to your brainD. brings different sounds together43.
