11、从几乎寂静的开头，许多人认为是对自由的喜悦和全世界兄弟般情谊的欢乐颂的充分表达。) 可知，贝多芬的第九交响曲歌颂的主题是自由与团结。故选A。3推理判断题。根据文章第四段第一句Have a dialogue between the two opposing parts and you will find that they always start out fighting each other until we come to an appreciation of differencea oneness of the two opposing forces.(如果你让对立的这两个部分进行对话，

16、persuasive tech is not a new idea an academic named BJ Fogg has been running classes from a “persuasive tech lab” at Stanford since the late 1990s.

25、述为什么要把智能手机换成傻瓜手机。5细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话“This is not accidental. Developers have become even more unashamed in their attempts to keep us hooked on our smartphones.”（发生这一切不是偶然的。为了让我们一刻都离不开我们的智能手机，开发人员的手段越来越肆无忌惮了。）可知，开发人员想尽一切办法让我们离不开手机，所以我们对手机上瘾是开发人员有意为之的。故选B。6细节理解题。根据题干Dopamine Labs's founder定位到第四段，再根据第

26、四段倒数第二句“He thinks there should be more conversation around the persuasive power of the technologies being used.”（他认为，应该对说服技术的使用进行更广泛的讨论。）可知C选项表达了他的看法。故选C。7词句猜测题。根据本句后半部分is former Google “design ethicist” Tristan Harris.（是前谷歌“设计伦理学家”特里斯坦哈里斯。）可知，主语应该指人，再结合横线后the resistance movement against addictive a

In 2014, Harris founded “Time Well Spent”, a group that campaigns for more moral design practices among developers.（他认为，改变目前这一体系的力量不掌握在应用开发人员手上，而掌握在硬件提供商手中。早在2014年，哈里斯就创建了一个名叫“光阴不虚度

28、”组织，呼吁开发公司在应用开发过程中坚持设计伦理。）可知，哈里斯是抵制易上瘾应用运动的代表人物，所以The poster child应指该运动的支持者，代表人物；A. The advertiser 顾问；B. The advocate 支持者；C. The opponent 反对者；D. The founder 创始人。故选B。8主旨大意题。通读全文，第一段作者提出It is, I think, the only app on my phone Id really miss were I to swap my smartphone for a “dumb” one that handles o

29、nly calls and text messages.（如果我要将现在的智能手机换成只能打电话、发短信的“傻瓜”手机，它(谷歌地图)可能是我唯一真正想念的一个应用了）；第二段Its because every time I try to read a book, I end up picking up my phone instead. I keep interrupting my own train of thought in order to do something that I dont consciously want to do.（因为每当我想读会儿书时，我最终拿起的却是手机。为

30、了做一些我不愿做的事，我不停地打断自己的思路。）进一步说明自己想换“傻瓜”手机的理由；第三、四、五段引用科学研究理论来说明手机正试图改变你大脑中的化学成份，让你花更多时间做你不想做的事情，以及技术界试图帮助我们重新获得自控力等理论依据，可知，本文主要讲述为什么要把智能手机换成傻瓜手机。故选C。（二）We have to make certain our limited money is well spent. But what should we spend our money on? A 20-year study conducted by Dr. Gilovich, a professor

31、 at Cormell University, reached a powerful and straightforward conclusion: don't spend your money on things.The trouble with things is that the happiness they provide peters out. We get used to new possessions, and what once seemed exciting quickly becomes the norm. We keep raising the bar and a

32、lways look for an even better one. Possessions, by their nature, cause comparisons. We buy a new car and are thrilled with it until a friend buys a better oneand there's always someone with a better one. Most of us usually assume that the happiness we get from buying something will last as long

33、as the thing itself. It seems intuitive(直觉的) that investing in something we can see, hear, and touch on a permanent basis delivers the best value. But it's not the case at all.Gilovich has found that experiences deliver more-lasting happiness than things. Experiences become a part of our identit

34、y. Everyone's experience is unique. We are not our possessions, but we are the accumulation of everything we've seen, the things we've done, and the places we've been to. “Our experiences are a bigger part of ourselves than our material goods,” said Gilovich. “You can really like you

35、r material stuff. You can even think that part of your identity is connected to those things, but they remain separate from you. In contrast, your experiences really are part of you. We are the sum total of our experiences.”Besides, we don't compare experiences in the same way that we compare th

36、ings. It's hard to quantify the relative value of any two experiences, which makes them that much more enjoyable. And expectation of an experience causes excitement and enjoyment, while expectation of obtaining a possession causes impatience. Experiences are enjoyable from the very first moments

37、 of planning, all the way through to the memories you keep forever. The temporary happiness achieved by buying things can be regarded as “puddles(水坑) of pleasure.” In other words, that kind of happiness evaporates(蒸发) quickly and leaves us wanting more. Things may last longer than experiences, but t

38、he memories that remain are what matter most.9The underlined phrase “peters out” can be replaced by_.Adies awayBis too littleCis not realDcosts too much10What does Gilovich think of experiences?AExperiences deliver less-lasting happiness than things.BExperiences can exist in our memory forever.COur

39、experiences take up all parts of ourselves.DOur experiences are what separate us from others.11What can be inferred from the passage ?AExperiences can be compared with each otherBExpecting an experience increases our feeling of anxietyCPeople are more likely to be impatient when buying thingsDSpirit

40、ual wealth is the most valuable for us12Which is the main idea of the passage?AHow can we gain happiness with money?BHow can we make happiness last long?CWhy should we spend money on experiences instead of things?DWhy do experiences achieve permanent happiness than things?【答案】9A10D11D12C【解析】本文是一篇议论文

41、，作者论证说明了一个道理“为什么要把钱花在经历上，而不是事物上”。9.词句猜测题。根据划线短语所在句后一句提到“We get used to new possessions, and what once seemed exciting quickly becomes the norm.”（我们习惯了新拥有的东西，曾经令人兴奋的东西很快就变成了常态。），即可推断出新拥有的东西，能够带来的快乐是短暂的 ，很快就会“消失”，peters out对应的同义词应是“die away”，故选A。10.细节理解题。根据第二段提到“Gilovich has found that experiences del

42、iver more-lasting happiness than things. Experiences become a part of our identity. Everyone's experience is unique.”（吉洛维奇发现，体验比物质更能带来持久的幸福。经历成为我们身份的一部分。每个人的经历都是独一无二的。）可知，吉洛维奇（Gilovich）认为经历是个人身份的象征，个人的经历形成与他人的区别，故选D。11.推理判断题。根据第二段首句提到“The trouble with things is that the happiness they provide pe

43、ters out.” （问题是，事物所带来的快乐会逐渐消失。）及第三段首句提到“Gilovich has found that experiences deliver more-lasting happiness than things.”（吉洛维奇发现，体验比物质更能带来持久的幸福。）及最后一段最后一句提到“Things may last longer than experiences, but the memories that remain are what matter most.”（事物可能比经历更持久，但留下的记忆才是最重要的。）可推断出，在作者的观点看来，事物可能留存的时间比经历

44、更久，但是并不能带来长久的幸福，而经历留下的精神财富才是最重要的，故选D。12.主旨大意题。通读全文内容可知，本文主要讲述了事物能够带来的幸福是短暂，经历留下来的精神财富才是最重要的；再根据第一段首句，引出文章主题“We have to make certain our limited money is well spent. But what should we spend our money on?”（我们必须确保有限的钱花得值。但是我们应该把钱花在什么地方呢），所以本文主要想表达的主题是“为什么要把钱花在经历上，而不是事物上”，故选C。（三）It's common knowled

45、ge that the woman in Leonardo da Vinci's most famous painting seems to look back at observers, following them with her eyes no matter where they stand in the room. But this common knowledge turns out wrong.A new study finds that the woman in the painting is actually looking out at an angle thats

46、 15. 4 degrees off to the observer's right-well outside of the range that people normally believe when they think someone is looking right at them. In other words, said the study author, Horstmann,“Shes not looking at you.” This is somewhat ironic, because the entire phenomenon of a person's

47、 gaze(凝视) in a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer is called the "Mona Lisa effect". That effect is absolutely real, Horstmann said. If a person is illustrated or photographed looking straight ahead, even people viewing the portrait from an angle will feel they are being lo

48、oked at. As long as the angle of the person's gaze is no more than about 5 degrees off to either side, the Mona Lisa effect occurs.Horstmann and his co-author were studying this effect for its application in the creation of artificial-intelligence avatars (虚拟头像) when Horstmann took a long look a

49、t the “Mona Lisa” and realized she wasn't looking at him. To make sure it wasn't just him, the researchers asked 24 people to view images of the “Mona Lisa" on a computer screen. They set a ruler between the viewer and the screen and asked the participants to note which number on the ruler intersected Mona Lisas gaze. To calculate the angle of Mona Lis
