Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. （40 points）Text 1Most birds produce short, simple calls, but songbirds also have the ability of many complex vocal （发声的）patterns that help them attract mates, defend territory （领土也），and strengthen their social bonds. Each songbird species has its own unique song patterns, some with characteristic regional dialects. Experienced listeners can even distinguish individual birds by their unique songs.A lot of what scientists know about bird song comes from studying zebra finches. A baby male zebra finch typically learns to sing from its father or other males, starting while it's still a baby bird in the nest. First comes the sensory learning stage, when the baby finch hears the songs sung around it and commits them to memory. The bird starts to vocalize during the motor learning stage, practicing until it can match the song it memorized. As the bird leams, hearing the tutor's song over and over again is helpful - up to a point. If it hears the song too many times, the imitation （模仿）becomes worse and the source matters. If the song is played through a loudspeaker, he can't pick it up as easily. But hide the same loudspeaker inside a toy painted to look like a zebra finch, and his learning improves.What if the baby never hears another zebra finch's song? Interestingly enough, it'll sing anyway. Isolated finches still produce what are called innate songs or isolate songs. A specific tune might be taught, but the instinct to sing seems to exist in a songbird's brain. Innate songs sound different from the "cultured” songs learned from other finches - at first. If isolate zebra finches start a new colony, the young birds pick up the isolate song from their fathers. But the song changes from generation to generation. And after a few generations, the melody actually starts to resemble the cultured songs sung by zebra finches in the wild.1、What can be learned from the first paragraph?A. Songbirds don't make short, simple calls.B , Each songbird has its unique song patterns.C. Some songbirds can speak human regional dialects.D. Songbirds promote relations with others by singing.2、Which of the following is true about a baby zebra finch's learning process?A. It begins to learn to sing from its parents, B. The more it hears the song, the better it sings. C. Before practicing, it has to remember the songs.D. A loudspeaker is good enough to be a good teacher.3、The underlined words "innate songs" in paragraph 3 refer to .A. the songs sung by only one bird itselfB. the songs that a bird produces naturally without learningC , the songs that are taught by parentsD. the songs always different from those of the same species4、Whafs the best title of this text?A. What Can Songbirds Do with Singing?B , How Do Songbirds Learn to Sing?C. Why Are Bird Songs Different?D. What Is a Zebra Finch?Text 2When I was 5, my father worked the night shift as a nurse in a hospital. He was always carrying his stethoscope （听诊器） so naturally, so I called him “Dr. Saldivar“ while I pressed his stethoscope against his chest. But my father, as a humble man, was always correcting me: “I am not a doctor, son, but you can be one." I grew up feeling like I had no limits because of moments like this, which has helped me take risks personally and professionally in spite of the hardships I had to endure.Being born to Mexican immigrants meant that my parents had to work very hard to provide for my family and I had to learn to struggle through school paperwork on my own, because my parents* English was limited and they couldn't always be there motivating us through the process. If I wanted to succeed academically, my perseverance, and strength would be tested.Perseverance, strength and good education are the gateway to success. And this is especially true when you look at the obstacles that Latinos have to overcome to succeed in public schools. For instance, while the national high school dropout （辍 学）rate has decreased significantly, we still have the highest dropout rate in the country. We are more likely to live in poverty and attend racially separated schools. These issues create many other problems for Latinos.To help relieve my family burden, I found my first job when I was 14 at a local hotel. Despite the long hours on my new job, I worked hard. Meanwhile, I continually stressed the importance of getting a respectable education and did everything possible to get one step closer to making my dream a reality.Nearly a decade later, I became the first in my family to graduate from the University of Southern California. Knowing the social, economic, and political struggles that a community faces, 1 began to pursue journalism to give the disadvantaged minorities a voice.1、What inspired the author when he was a child?A. His curiosity about the stethoscope. B. A nurse in his father's hospital.C. The encouraging words from his father. D. The hardships he suffered.2、The example in the third paragraph given by the author suggests.A. more Latinos are receiving higher education in AmericaB. racial separation has long been forbidden in AmericaC. American education system is better constructedD. Latino immigrants are still facing many problems3、The author chose to become a journalist, hoping to.A. speak for the disadvantaged Latinos B. enjoy a different lifeC. show his success as a Latino D. repay the sacrifice his parents made4、What can we learn from the author's experience?A. Immigration is an approach to personal success.B American Dream is difficult for the Latinos to achieve.C. Disadvantaged Latinos are still facing many challenges.D. Good education is a way to successful life.Text 3Ride-hailing apps and robot cars promise to change how we get around and the effects are already being felt. Traffic in New York is slowing down. Jams are common in Manhattan, especially in its business districts. Daytime traffic in the busiest areas now moves almost 20% more slowly than it did five years ago.It seems a place ripe for wide use of ride-hailing apps that, you might think, would reduce some of the jams. However, those apps appear to be making things worse as traffic has slowed in line with the growing popularity of apps such as Uber and Lyft, a study by transport expert Bruce Schaller suggests.Over the four years of the study, the number of cars in Manhattan seeking ride-hailing fares increased by 81%. There are now about 68,000 ride-sharing drivers across New York. Thafs about five times the number of the yellow cabs licensed to operate there, he found. There are so many drivers, his work suggests, who spend about 45% of their spare time just touring for fares. That is a lot of unused cars blocking a lot of busy streets.Simple physics explains why ride-sharing vehicles are causing, not curing jams, said Jarrett Walker, a public transport policy expert who has advised hundreds of cities about moving people.“Lots of people are deciding that, 9Oh, public transport is just too much trouble this morning/ or whenever, which causes a shift from it/ he told the BBC. "That means moving people from larger vehicles into smaller ones, which means more vehicles to move the same people. Therefore, more traffic.Data gathered about ride-sharing drivers illustrates how they contribute to congestion（塞车），said Prof. Christo Wilson, a computer scientist at Northeastern University who has studied the services. "You can look at the traffic pattern for the Uber vehicles and it perfectly matches the peaks for the rush hour and the peak time of a day,“ he said. They are out there in force at the worst possible times.1 > What can we know about the cabs in New York?A. More cabs are needed to meet the demand.B. They often tour around the city seeking users.C. Their fares increased greatly over the four years.D. The number of them is far less than ride-sharing cars.2、What is Christo Wilson's attitude toward ride-sharing practice?A. NeutralB.NegativeC.IndifferentD.Supportive3、Which of the following best replaces "it" underlined in Paragraph 5.A.A jam.B.Public transportC .A car.D.A ride-sharing vehicle.4、What is the best title for the text?A. Worse Road Jams.B. App Makes Terrible Jams.C. Efforts Needed for Traffic.D. Technology Counts in Future.Text 4When Charles Lee handed me the small red notebook in 1974, he changed my life. "While you are traveling, you should keep notes of things you see and do J he explained.I was 20 years old, a junior in college, spending a term at the University of London. Charles was a retired traveling salesman. I was staying with him in his cottage in Kendal, located in the Lake District of northern England. It was a one-week homestay the university arranged for us before classes began.I took his advice. I wrote in the notebook every day during the homestay. Back in London, I recorded weekend trips to Wales, Yorkshire, France, and Spain. I commented on my classes, professors, and classmates. I contrasted my life at a smallcollege in the US with my wandering through the streets of London, my introduction to life in a big city, and my initial travels outside the US. I tracked ideas I had about my life and my future.When I wrote in the notebook, I struggled with a sense of my audience and purpose. Who would read this? Were these writings just for me, or did I want others to read them? Was I recording events and ideas just as a prompt（提示）to memory, or was there some larger purpose for this daily exercise?I knew I was recording events, thoughts, words that were important to my life. T imagined a future me sitting down to read the pages. I wondered what it would feel like to read those words later. I wondered where I would be and what my life would be like.I filled the notebook Charles gave me. I bought a new one and filled it. Then another and another. I continued writing in notebooks for four decades. By that time, they filled two boxes in my garage.I had reread some of the journals. Specific volumes had provided me with the background I needed for dozens of articles for magazines. But I had never read them all. Recently, I decided to bring my collection of notebooks into my office and replay my life. As I opened the first box, I suddenly became nervous would I like the former me described on those pages? There was a risk in opening that first notebook. I did it anyway.Charles had been right. I remembered the big events and the central happenings, but on each page were many details I hadn't retained（保留）.The pages revealed highlights from college classes and stories about roommates and friends. I read anxious comments I'd written as Td launched my teaching career, learned to write lesson plants, assigned grades for student work, and solved discipline problems. I reflected on my coming marriage, then the wedding, and eventually the proud moments when I held each of my three girls as a father. I recounted more tripsreturning to Europe, teaching in South America, going on safari（游猎）in Africa, and exploring Greenland. I relived memories of trails hit, rivers crossed,
