Along the way they came to the edge of a severe hot-sand desert. They learnt that during the daytime the sun heat

15、s up the fine sand until its as hot as charcoal, so no one can walk on it一 not even bullocks （小公牛）or camels! So the caravan leader hired a desert guide, one who could follow the stars, so they could travel only at night when the sand cools down. They began the dangerous night一time journey across the

16、 desert. A couple of nights later, after eating their evening meal, and waiting for the sand to cool, they started out again.Later that night, the desert guide, who was driving the first cart, saw from the stars that they were getting close to the other side of the desert. He had also overeaten, so

17、that when he relaxed, he fell asleep. Then the bullocks who, of course, couldnt tell directions by reading the stars, gradually turned to the side and went in a big wide circle until they ended up at the same place they had started from! By then it was morning, and the people realized they were back

18、 at the same spot. They lost heart and began to cry about their condition. Since the desert crossing was supposed to be over by now, they had no more water and were afraid they would die of thirst. They even began to blame the caravan leader and the desert guide.However, the leader himself didnt los

19、e courage. He began walking back and forth, trying to think out a plan. Remaining alert, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a small clump of grass. He thought, Without water, no plant could live in this desert. So he asked his fellow travelers to dig up the ground on that very spot. They dug a

20、nd dug, and after a while they got down to a large stone. He got down into the hole, put his ear to the stone, and heard the sound of flowing water.A spring was found. All the people were oveijoyed. They drank and bathed and washed the animals and cooked their food and ate. Before they left, they ra

21、ised a high flag so that other travelers could see the new spring in the middle of the hot-sand desert. Then they continued on safely to the end of their journey.26.

24、rn in the 1800s. I inherited a large fortune, a healthy body and an excellent mind. I was naturally hard-working and soon I was very successful in my job. So the outside world saw a serious, hard-working, successful doctor. Behind this quiet character, however, was a wild, fun-loving, irresponsible

25、young man. Both of them were me. They lived together in the same body.“Was it possible J I wondered, to find a drug that could give each side of my character its own separate face and body?”After much thought and careful study I believed I had found the answer. I had read many scientific books and s

26、pent many hours in my laboratory, searching for the right mixture of chemicals to make my drug. At last I got everything ready.Late one night, I mixed everything together and prepared my drug. I watched the smoke rising from the liquid as its color changed from red to purple and at last to green. Th

27、en, bravely, I drank every bitter drop.I felt a violent sickness in my stomach and a terrible pain in all my bones. The room seemed to turn round and round and I trembled with fear. Then the fear and pain disappeared and a strange, sweet feeling took its place. Wild thoughts danced through my mindth

28、e wild passions of an evil and cruel stranger. But inside myself I felt younger, lighter, more carefree than ever before. If this is pure evil. I thought, I like it.”I stood there, enjoying these strange new thoughts and passions and suddenly realized that I was shorter. So I decided to go to my bed

29、room in my new body and take a look at myself in the mirror there. As I came into my room, I saw Edward Hyde for the first time.At that time, the good side of my character was stronger than the evil side. Henry Jekyll had his faults, but he was mostly a good, kind man. I believe that is the reason w

30、hy Edward Hyde was so much smaller than Henry Jekyll. But that was not the only difference between the two men. Henry Jekyll had a kind, open, honest face. But pure evil stared out of Edward Hydes eyes. I felt no dislike, however. Indeed, I welcomed him. Edward Hyde was me, young and strong and full

31、 of life.29. In others9 eyes, the writer was.A. wild and successful B. funloving and responsibleC. quiet and irresponsible D. serious and hard一working30.

From the passage we can learn that the writer.A. felt quite delighted right after taking the drugB. preferred kind Henry to pure evil EdwardC. was very sick of the shorter Edward HydeD. was satisfied with both of his bodiesCUpskilling is the futurebu

33、t it must work for everyoneAutomation and job replacement will be one of the most significant challenges for the global economy of the coming decades. A 2017 Mckinsey report established that 375 million workers will need to switch occupational categories by 2030. The World Economic Forum suggests th

34、at by 2022, automation will replace 75 million jobs globallybut create 133 million new ones.Research into the likelihood that a job will be impacted by digitization has largely focused on the “automatability of the role and the following economic regional and political effects of this. What this res

35、earch doesnt take into account is something more important for the millions of taxi drivers and retail workers across the globe: their likelihood of being able to change to another job that isnt automatable. Recent research suggests that the answer to this may be that the skills that enable workers

36、to move up the ladder to more complex roles within their current areas might be less important than broader skills that will enable workers to change across divisions.In July, Amazon announced that it would spend $700 million retraining around 30% of its 300,000 US workforce. While praiseworthy, it

37、will be interesting to see the outcome. In the UK, the National Retraining Scheme has largely been led by employers, meaning that those on zero-hours contracts and part-time workers一often low-skilled一will miss out. Governance will be a crucial element of ensuring that such schemes focus on individua

38、ls and life-long learning, rather than upskilling workers into roles that will soon also face automation.According to the Mckinsey report, growing awareness of the scale of the task ahead has yet to translate into action. Public spending on labour-force training and support has fallen for years in m

39、ost member countries of the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development J which impacts more than just the low-skilled and poorly compensated.The global impact of automation is also put into relief by research demonstrating that, between 1988 and 2015, income inequality increased througho

40、ut the world. Billions of people do not have the essentials of life as defined by the UN Sustainable Development goals.Alongside climate change, automation is arguably techs biggest challenge. As with globalization, governments and employers- and us workersignore its potential consequences at risk t

41、o ourselves.32. It can be known from Paragraph 2 that.A. recent research has found ways to face automationB. broad skills are of great significance in changing jobsC. regional economy can affect the automatability of a jobD. it is even harder for workers to move up the social ladder33.

42、uthors attitude towards retraining programs?A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Skeptical. D. Sympathetic.34. According to the author, what is one consequence of automation?A. Less spending on training.B. A slowdown of globalization.C. Social unrest and instability.D. An increase in income inequality.35.

43、 The passage is written to.A. argue the urgency of creating new jobsB. compare globalization with automationC. analyze the automatability of certain jobsD. stress the importance of upskilling workersDPicture this: Its 2003 and your family has just finished arguing over which Netflix movies to rent t

44、hat week. Movies come in the mail and the family watch them throughout the week before sending them back and ordering new ones. Then, fast forward to 2008, and you have started to watch TV shows on Netflixs new platform.Nowjets come to the present. You sit down and open up Netflix on your TV and scr

45、oll for a while. Then you flip over to Hulu to see if they have anything more interesting to offer. Then you check HBO GO. Finally, you check Disneyt. Then you realize that youre paying for four different streaming services, maybe more.Lets return to Netflix. More generally, streaming. There are ove

46、r 100 video streaming services available, as well as quite a few music streaming, including Apple Music, YouTube Music, Google Play, and etc. The streaming world, at least to some, is on its way to getting out of control, with each service requiring its own monthly subscription. And that is just ent

47、ertainment subscriptions. We haven91 even taken into account subscriptions like Microsoft Office, magazine subscriptions, and email newsletters. Subscriptions started out as a service of convenience, but now, the oversaturation may have become burdensome. The services believe customers will pay more

48、 to get the content they want. However, statistics show a growing frustration among consumers. With so many options, they find it harder than ever to make a decision on what to pick.Not only does the oversaturation of streaming result in confusing navigation, it also creates a financial burden for the consumers. Lets say if you want to watch Stranger Things. The Handmaids Tale, and Game of Thrones, which belong to three different services, you would have to pay nearly $50 a month to access all three of those services, meaning its not che
