True leadership is not just the ability to identify the talent and skill of the polished individuals around you.It involves being able to dig beneath the surface and discover (41)D.
Once there was a boy who constantly sat and talked in his math class,and seemed (42)Bin group activities.Most teachers would (43)Athink of him as a problem student.
However,Anna was different.She believed the student was above (44)Cin other areas so she created a strategy to find out.
Anna didn't (45)Athe parents.Instead she organized a handful of activities in the class to get more information.In place of calling out for volunteers in class she created a (46)Dfor each Friday:Girls vs.Boys.
The first week the class was totally (47)B.Everyone wanted to win.Even the boy had his hand up the whole time trying to get a turn.(48)A,Anna waited,and waited,and waited.Finally the (49)Dteacher paired the boy with the most (50)Cgirl student in class.
Now the two teams had a (51)Bscore,all the students sat back eager to see the result.As the teacher placed the question on the board,most of the students began to (52)Ctheir heads:this was a question they had never (53)Ain class.
"(54)D!"the teacher yelled.Both students started doing it (55)C thinking of how to solve the complex question.Their classmates,full of (56)D,exclaimed,"Hurry,hurry,hurry!"The boy finished it just seconds before the girl and spun around with his (57)Araised,"I won!"Almost nobody could believe the student they admired failed until Anna (58)Cthe result.
This was what Anna tried to get.It turned out that the student wasn't bad,he was (59)D.So we can see that (60)Bhidden abilities is not always easy but the end results can be magical.Try your hand at this quality of leadership now and report your results.

11.Daniel Anderson,a famous psychologist,believes it's important to distinguish television's influences on children from those of the family.We tend to blame TV,he says,for problems it doesn't really cause,overlooking our own roles in shaping children's minds.
One traditional belief about television is that it reduces a child's ability to think and to understand the world.While watching TV,children do not merely absorb words and images (影像).Instead,they learn both explicit(表面的) and hidden meanings from what they see.Actually,children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows.Furthermore,as many teachers agree,children understand far more when parents watch TV with them,explaining new words and ideas.Yet,most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.
Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment.But according to Anderson,the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading ability.TV doesn't take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation,such as listening to the radio and playing sports.Things like parents'educational background have a stronger influence on a child's reading."A child's reading ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads."Anderson says.
Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ scores and affects school performance.But here,too,Anderson notes that no studies have proved it.In fact,research suggests that it's the other way around."If you're smart young,you'll watch less TV when you're older,"Anderson says.Yet,people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.
For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children.However,by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionally (传统地)believed,Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned(谴责) without considering other influences.

32.An educational program is best watched by a childC.
A.on his ownB.with other kids
C.with his parentsD.with his teachers
33.Which of the following is most related to children's reading ability?D
A.Radio-listeningB.Television-watching
C.Parents'reading listD.Parents'reading background
34.Anderson believed thatC.
A.the more a child watches TV,the smarter he is
B.the younger a child is,the more he watches TV
C.the smarter a child is,the less likely he gets addicted to TV
D.the less a child watches TV,the better he performs at school
35.What is the main purpose of the passage?D
A.To advise on the educational use of TV.
B.To describe TV's harmful effects on children.
C.To explain traditional views on TV influences.
D.To present Anderson's unconventional ideas.
9.From losing weight to quitting smoking,each December people around the world make a New Year's resolution(决心).But studies have shown that despite their best effort,most will fail.
Professor Peter Herman,a psychology lecturer at the University of Toronto says that the reasons why resolutions fail are clear."They are not realistic in some or all of the following respects:people think that they can change themselves more quickly; they think that they can change much more than anyone else; or they think they can change everything more easily."
Professor Herman suggests that the issue may be a cycle of failure and renewed effort.which he calls"the false-hope syndrome"(虚妄期盼综合征).The cycle begins with a difficult self-change task.such as overeating or smoking-common yet rarely successful changes.While people may make some initial progress in the task,eventually they fail to achieve their goal.Having failed,they interpret their failure to convince themselves that with a few adjustments they will succeed.Finally,they begin to embark on another attempt,and the cycle repeats.
In his paper on the topic,Professor Herman and his co-author,Janet Polivy,write,"People tend to make the same resolutions year after year,vowing on average l0 times to get rid of a particular vice (恶习)."Obviously,every renewed vow represents a certain failure; otherwise,there would be no need for yet another attempt.Equally obviously,unsuccessful attempts do not decrease the chance of making future palls for self-change.Even those who are finally successful at sticking to their resolutions make the attempt five or six times on average before succeeding.
Expecting to make a breakthrough is not a good way,so Professor Herman says that the best way of sticking to your resolution is to expect the changes little by little rather than a major transformation.He told Mail Online,"Often this means scaling back (缩减) your resolution to something that is actually manageable."

32.Why do most people fail in their New Year's resolutions according to Professor Herman?B
A.They doesn't do their best at all.
B.They make unrealistic resolutions.
C.They want to stay unchanged.
D.They change them frequently.
33.What does the underlined part"embark on"in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A
A.Undertake.B.Abandon.C.Welcome.D.Represent.
34.How can you achieve your New Year's resolutions in Professor Herman's opinion?C
A.Set a big resolution.
B.Make a breakthrough.
C.Expect gradual changes.
D.Believe in yourself.
35.What may be the best title for the text?D
A.Actions Speak Louder Than Words   
B.Think Twice Before You Do
C.A Bargain Is a Bargain     
D.Good Plan Is Half Done.
16.Unless you are like Nasty Gal's founder Sophia Amoruso,the passwords you use to access your email and the endless other accounts you need for work aren't filled with intention.With increasing security requirements,it's likely your word/number combinations are becoming even less memorable.But new research suggests it may not be long before you won't need to memorize passwords.
"Brainprint",published in Neurocomputing,reveals that the brain's reaction to certain words could be a unique identifying code-like a fingerprint-that could eventually replace passwords.
In a small experiment,the researchers measured the brains'signals of 45volunteers as they read through a list of 75acronyms such as FBI and DVD.The word-recognition response differed so much between each participant that a second experiment using a computer program could identify each one with 94% accuracy.
It's not enough to feel totally secure,but promising enough to hint at the future of securing sensitive information.
The advantage of using such a biometric system (生物识别系统) is that it can be used for continuous verification (验证),New Scientist points out.Passwords or fingerprints only provide a tool for one-off identification.Continuous verification could in theory allow someone to interact with many computer systems at the same time or even with a variety of intelligent objects,without having to repeatedly enter passwords for each device.
As Hollywood has illustrated,it's simply a matter of cutting off a finger to steal that person's identity."Brainprints,on the other hand,are potentially cancellable,"said Sarah Laszlo,assistant professor of psychology and linguistics at Binghamton University and co-author of the study,"So,in the unlikely event that attackers were actually able to steal a brainprint from an authorized user,the authorized user could then‘reset'their brainprint."
Until now,brain signals have been a challenge to understand.This experiment leaped over the obstacle by focusing on the brainwaves from the specific area that reads and recognizes words.The signal is therefore clearer and easier to measure.
The problem,so far,is that the brain signal is still not as accurate as scanning someone's fingerprint,and initially requires sticking diodes (二极管) on your head in order to get a read.That's ok,according to Zhanpeng Jin,assistant professor at Binghamton University and coauthor of the study,because brainprint isn't going to be mass-produced any time soon.He says the researchers foresee its use at places such as the Pentagon,where the number of authorized users is small,and they don't need to be continuously verified the way you do to access your mobile device or email.
Better keep your memory sharp,at least a little while longer.

63.In paragraph 5,"one-off identification"refers to the identification thatD.
A.happens as part of a regular series   
B.interacts with intelligent objects
C.can be verified continuously   
D.needs repeated verification
64.According to Sarah Laszlo,B.
A.fingerprints can be canceled once stolen  
B.brainprints are theft-proof and resettable
C.attackers can steal and replace brainprints 
D.users have the authority to cancel brainprints
65.It can be inferred from the passage thatC.
A.brainprints will sharpen users'memory
B.brainprints will become easier to be measured
C.brainprints will receive narrow application
D.brainprints will eventually replace fingerprints
66.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A
A.Brainprints:A New Way to Replace Passwords
B.Brainprints:A Unique Device to Identify Codes
C.Brainprints:A Quicker Way to Access Your Email
D.Brainprints:A Securer Device to Identify Brain Signals.
6.Modem technology has a strong influence on many things we do.In fact,technology is shaping almost every part of our day-to-day existence,including education.Ashok Goel is a professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology.Every term over 300 graduate students take his class on artificial intelligence (AI).The students never meet in person.All of the classes take place online-through a website.
Having hundreds of students in a class means Ashok Goel has to answer thousands of questions.He has eight teaching assistants to help him.But even that is not enough to give all the students the help they need.So,in January,he decided to try an experiment.At the start of the spring 2016semester,he added a new member to his teaching team:Jill Watson.She was able to answer questions faster than most other teaching assistants.And she was available 24 hours a day.It was only at the end of the semester that God's students learned Watson's secret:she was not a real person.Jill Watson is an AI computer program.Goel says only two students came close to predicting Watson's true identity.He was worried about telling his students because he thought they would not like being part of the experiment.But once they learned Watson's identity,they became very excited.
"Then,you know what happened?They not only asked that question about Jill,"Is she an AI?'Once the identity of Jill was revealed they also asked if I was an AI."
Goel now uses Watson in two other classes,but still does not tell his students which of his teaching assistants is a computer program.He hopes this technology will make it easier for teachers to create their own programs to use in and outside the classroom.

28.How does Goel give his students help?A
A.Through the Internet.
B.By writing to them.
C.By face-to-face teaching.
D.Through books.
29.Why did Goel decide to try an experiment?B
A.Because some questions were difficult to answer.
B.Because it was hard to satisfy students'need.
C.Because it was too tired to answer those questions.
D.Because he wanted to improve students'self-study ability.
30.What's the students'response to Jill Watson?C
A.Surprised.
B.Indifferent.
C.Excited.
D.Shocked.
31.What's the best title of the passage?A
A.Technology Makes Education Easier.
