My husband Stephen and I had planned a trip to Lithuania and Poland, but his worsening heart condition
prevented him from joining. He insisted I go alone, marking my first solo journey in over 20 years. Despite my
fears, I set off, feeling like I was on a flying Noah’s Ark surrounded by couples.
In Vilnius, I found comfort in a website, which offered pay-what-you-choose walking tours. These tours
became the highlight of my trip. I took five tours, each morning setting out to explore the city’s old town, a
UNESCO World Heritage Site, and sent Stephen photos each night. Our guide, Ieva, shared her deep knowledge of
history and culture. I connected with travelers from various backgrounds, including a Polish professor who invited
me to an art exhibit. I also traced my grandmother’s footsteps in Jewish Vilnius, visiting places she might have
known. These tours, full of surprises, were perfect for a solo traveler, offering connection and flexibility. On my
last day, Ieva gifted me a chocolate map of Lithuania for my enthusiastic participation.
I missed Stephen but grew increasingly confident in managing daily life challenges. I navigated apartment
lockboxes, shopped in local supermarkets, and cooked, activities I was once less skillful at. In Poland, I continued
with pay-what-you-choose tours, adapting to larger groups. I walked over 20,000 steps daily, often revisiting places
from the tours or discovering street festivals. In Lodz, I took a private tour with Milena, who helped me find my
family’s history, including the homes of my great aunts and their sufferings during the war.
,
Stephen was hospitalized just before I returned and we spent his hospital stay looking at my trip photos
and videos. His recovery was slow, but my independent travels allowed me to manage our home smoothly,

Sarah Presch, digital marketing director at Dragon Metrics, highlights concerns about how Google manages
search results, particularly on controversial topics. She discovered that Google is essentially delivering information
based on what users want to see, rather than providing a balanced view, creating a “bias (偏见) machine”.
With over 6.3 million queries processed every second, Google's search results hold immense influence over
public knowledge and perception. Users tend to focus only on the first few links, limiting their exposure to diverse
viewpoints. This dynamic raises the issue of “filter bubbles”, where users may be trapped in a cycle that strengthens
their existing beliefs. Critics argue that the algorithms (算法) used by Google contribute significantly to this
problem, presenting a limited selection of information based on users’ preferences.
Mark Williams-Cook, founder of AlsoAsked, emphasizes the technical limitations of search engines and the
misunderstandings surrounding them. He references internal Google documents revealing that the company often
relies on user engagement data rather than comprehending content. This practice can promote confirmation bias,
leading users towards information that aligns with their views, similar to a child choosing an unhealthy diet based
only on preference.
Google acknowledges the complexity of its search system and emphasizes ongoing efforts to enhance its
algorithms to tackle these issues. While the company declares that it provides a range of viewpoints, the reality
remains that most users do not go beyond the top search results, which limits their exposure to diverse perspectives.
第3页/共9页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司Critics believe Google should better educate users about how its search engine functions, as a clearer
understanding of these processes could foster critical consumption of information. As Google evolves into an
“answer engine” that provides direct information, the challenge of ensuring balanced and informative content
remains crucial for public knowledge.
8. What is a possible consequence of “filter bubbles”?
A. A craze for controversial topics. B. A prohibition on search engines.
C. Dependence on online information. D. Inaccessibility to differing opinions.
9. Why does Mark Williams-Cook criticize Google’s search engine?
A. It depends heavily on user data. B. It provides wrong information.
C. It promotes unhealthy lifestyles. D. It fails to comprehend instructions.
10. What does Google declare regarding search results?
A. It provides a diversity of ideas. B. It’s the users who are to blame.
C. Its algorithms are accurate enough. D. Its search system is far from complex.
11. What do critics suggest Google do?
A. Provide easier access to information.
B. Teach more public knowledge online.
C. Educate its users about consumption habits.
D. Publicize its search engine’s working principle.
D
None of us would like to believe that we are capable of evil. However, Zimbardo’s Stanford prison experiment
showed that we all have this potential. It all depends on the situation.
Phillip Zimbardo was a researcher at Stanford University. In 1972, he recruited (招募) 24 mentally healthy,
male, college students for an experiment taking place in a fake (假的) prison in the basement of Stanford. These
participants were randomly divided into 2 groups: prison guards and prisoners. The guards received a uniform and
mirrored sunglasses to wear for the job. Then, after being sent home, the prisoners were publicly arrested at their
homes on a Sunday morning. They were processed at a real police station before being transported to the ‘prison’.
No one could have predicted what would happen next. The guards weren’t given any specific instructions on
how to behave. Yet, very soon they began acting in extreme ways: they prevented prisoners from eating, took away
their bedding, forced them to remove their clothes, and even punished them with chores such as cleaning toilets with
their bare hands. As well as this, the prisoners were submitting to the guards - even though they knew that they hadn’t
actually done anything wrong and weren’t even in a real prison!
After just thirty-six hours, a prisoner had to be removed from the study as he had sunk into a deep depression
第4页/共9页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司with fits of anger and uncontrollable crying. A few days later, other prisoners displayed similar symptoms. The guards
also continued to abuse them. It was at this point that Zimbardo was told to stop the experiment. It was shut down
after just six days.
This experiment demonstrates the power of the situation in influencing how we act. Good people, just like you
or me, are capable of evil acts. However, the power of the situation doesn’t always have to be bad: it can also be a
force for good.
Of course, we could never repeat this experiment for ethical (伦理的) reasons. This means that we need to assess
how valid Zimbardo’s conclusions really are. For example, demand characteristics - how the guards assumed they
should act - may have significantly shaped their behaviour.
12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The aim of the experiment. B. The design of the experiment.
C. The finding of the experiment. D. The limitation of the experiment.
13. What behaviours did the guards exhibit?
A. They abused prisoners. B. They criticized prisoners.
C. They followed the instructions. D. They committed crimes of violence.
14. Why did Zimbardo stop the experiment?
A. The experiment achieved its goals.
B. The experiment became unaffordable.
C. The guards turned out uncontrollable.
D. The prisoners suffered mental collapses.
15. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. A conflict in prison
B. A pioneer in psychology
C. The power of the situation
D. The importance of virtues

Walking across campus with every pair of eyes on you can be embarrassing, especially when you’re 13 years
old. I looked around me in desperate search of a friendly face, a smile, anything. I was quite disappointed, to say the
least. And I, in turn, felt somewhat foolish, walking across campus with a false smile on my face. I was simply
attempting to follow the advice my mother had given me years before: when things get awkward, smile. No matter
where you are a smile will always be understood. A smile is universal. At that very moment, however, I felt my
mother’s advice didn’t work.
On top of it all, my mind was racing with questions and concerns typical of any 13-year old on the first day of
school: where would I sit at lunch? Who would I talk to? Not to mention how would I make friends when I didn’t
even speak the language? My heartbeat quickened and I felt nervous. Still, I did my best to maintain calm so as not

When the teacher introduced me to the class as the “American girl”, 10 sets of hands immediately shot up. Some
students had questions, and others wanted to practice their English with me. Because I didn’t speak much Chinese
yet, I communicated with the other students through hand motions mixed in with broken English and Chinese. Despite
the attention, I wasn’t sure how much of it was positive. It was almost as if they weren’t sure what to make of me and
I was being examined. Then again, who could blame them? After all I was the first American ever to attend the school.
So essentially, we were all first timers.
