2．Growing up，Deka Ismail says she let labels define what she could be. "I was a black girl，from a refugee（難民） family，" Deka said. "It was as if I was only allowed to explore in this predetermined box."
After a high school chemistry class inspired her to think about a career in science and gave her confidence in the field，Deka learned to live outside labels and began making big plans for her future.Now she is about to begin her freshman year at the University of California，planning to become a professor.
Born and raised in San Diego's City Heights neighborhood，Deka is the daughter of a Somali refugee couple.When Deka was eight years old，her mother got a job by studying hard back in school in order to support the whole family.That made Deka realize that education could make a difference to one's life.She spent a lot of time in the library reading books，and didn't do many of the things her peers did，like partying or having romantic relationships.
"I always felt like I had to be the perfect girl for my family，" Deka said. "You have to do your best and do much better than everyone else.I felt like the whole world was waiting for me to mess up."
Deka's efforts paid off.The summer before her senior year of high school，she was accepted to the American Chemical Society Project SEED Programme. "She brought both enthusiasm and focus，" Botham，a researcher at this research institute，recalled. "She arrived every day ready to work，ready to learn and ready to tackle new challenges regardless of whether or not she had done anything similar."
When asked what advice she would give to others like her，Deka warned them not to underestimate themselves. "Don't tell yourself that scholarship is too big or this programme is too competitive or I'll never get into this school，" she said. "I was not sure whether I could make it until I started seeing the acceptance letters rolling in."
（1）From the passage，we can learn that.
A．Deka was adopted by a refugee family
B．Deka became a professor after graduation
C．Deka's experiences drove her to work hard
D．Deka spent a lot of time going to parties

C．by reading books in the library
D．through working at the institute

A．patient
B．a(chǎn)mbitious

D．Hard work leads to success.組卷：2引用：1難度：0.6 -
3．As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information，are people remember less？If you know your computer will save information，why store it in your own personal memory，your brain？Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study，Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments.She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory.In the first experiment，they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information.The second group understood that the computer would not save it.Later，the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again，so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment，the researchers gave people facts to remember，and told them where to find the information on the Internet.The information was in a specific computer folder（文件夾）.Surprisingly，people later remember the folder location（位置） better than the facts.When people use the Internet，they do not remember the information.Rather，they remember how to find it.This is called "transactive memory （交互記憶）".
According to Sparrow，we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead，computer users are developing stronger transactive memories；that is，people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date.This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent，but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
（1）The passage begins with two questions to.
A．introduce the main topic
B．show the author's attitude
C．describe how to use the Internet
D．explain how to store information
（2）What can we learn about the first experiment？
A．Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.
B．The two groups remembered the information equally well.
C．The first group did not try to remember the information.
D．The second group did not understand the information.
（3）In transactive memory，people.
A．keep the information in mind
B．change the quantity of information
C．organize information like a computer
D．remember how to find the information
（4）What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research？
A．We are using memory differently.
B．We are becoming more intelligent.
C．We have poorer memories than before.
D．We need a better way to access information.組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5 -
4．British people work some of the longest hours in Europe，but are among the least productive.Now some companies are shortening the working week to increase efficiency，health and happiness.
Rich Leigh has introduced a four-day week at his PR company.In fact，his entire company has Friday off，because his firm has adopted a four-day week.It is one of a handful of UK businesses that now operate like this：staff still get paid their previous five-day salary，but they work a day less.The company found that they achieved just as much—and there were even sighs of growth. "The key to the scheme's success，" Leigh says， "is how happy our employees now are."
The average British worker takes only a 34 minute lunch break and works 10 hours overtime each week（more often than not this is unpaid）.Yet UK productivity falls seriously behind their European neighbors，who tend to work fewer hours.
British working practices have caused loss and damage to the nation's health and happiness.More than half a million workers in the UK were signed off with work-related stress or anxiety last year.Moreover，the work landscape itself is changing.Automation and AI will have a significant impact on the labor market，where unsteady work becomes more common.
Britain is the only EU member that allows workers to ignore the EU working time limit and work longer hours.For campaigners，now is the time for a change.O'Grady，an advocate，argues that where businesses have increased their profits as a result of automation，success should be shared with workers in the form of reduced hours. "It's time to share the benefits from new technology，not allowing those at the top to grab them for themselves." she says.
（1）We can learn from the passage that.
A．British people are the least productive in the world
B．Most companies in Britain have conducted a four-day week
C．PR company has witnessed a rise in employees' happiness
D．British people work longer and get more payment than other countries
（2）Which is the proper description of British working practices？
A．The working time of British workers is within the EU limit.
B．In terms of productivity，Britain is beaten by the United States.
C．Profits gained from new technology are on the decrease.
D．Automation and AI are likely to cause an instable work market.
（3）Which can be inferred from O'Grady's words in the last paragraph？
A．It's time for employers to share the increased profits created by automation.
B．Workers should benefit from automation in the form of less working hours.
C．New technology should belong to both businesses and workers.
D．Businesses can't make more profits without new technology.
（4）What is the author's purpose of writing the passage？
A．To introduce some British firms' switch to a four-day working week.
B．To explain the reasons why British workers suffer stress and anxiety.
C．To appeal for more reasonable working conditions.
D．To present the current productivity problem in Britain.組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5 -
5．Plogging Plogging is a new way to jog while cleaning up the planet.It's a craze that began in Sweden in 2016 and the motivation behind it includes reducing the load of plastic litter in our environment，as well as keeping fit while running.（1）
If you love outdoor exercise，enjoy exercising with others，and care about removing litter from our environment，then this might just be the sport for you.
Make good preparations before plogging.Dress suitably for the environment in which you are running.This will vary depending on the weather and surroundings，but the basics are comfortable running clothes and closed-toe running shoes.Suitable gloves are a wise and useful addition，as picking up litter can be dangerous in some situations.（2）This might be a standard trash bag，easy to carry and capable of containing litter that might have sharp edges.
Organize your plogging group.If you're lucky enough to have ploggers already in your area，seek them out.Join up and make new friends with a shared interest.Check out such meeting groups at Meetup or ask at a local sports store to find out what opportunities exist where you live.If you don't have a group，create one.Use social media，notices on bulletin boards，or place signs in the windows of sports stores to find fellow ploggers.（3）
Collect safely.One key suggestion for staying safe while collecting litter is to avoid picking up broken glass or sharp items.If you must collect such an item，only do so when you can find a very safe way to collect it without harming yourself.If in doubt，leave it and get better equipment to remove it. （4）If an item of litter presents a potential safety risk，try to mark the item clearly to encourage people to avoid it.
（5）It is a way of combining individual achievement via exercise with community and environmental care.You're part of the growing movement of people who are giving back to the world at the same time as honoring self care，a sustainable and healthy way to balance your life.This could be a fantastic opportunity to show people that individual action makes a big difference.
A.Taking some photos during the process is also necessary.
B.You can also ask for assistance from the local authorities.
C.Usually performed as part of a group run，it's also a social exercise.
D.You also need to find a suitable carry bag for collecting the litter in.
E.Plogging is a great way to feel motivated as it has more than one benefit.
F.If you find a natural area with litter problem，this might be a suitable place.
G.With some advertising effort，you are likely to connect with a few interested people.組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5
