paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more
than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the
correspondingletteronAnswerSheet2.Climatechangemaybereal,butit’sstillnoteasybeinggreen
How do we convince our inner caveman to be greener? We ask some outstanding social
scientists.
[A] The road to climate hell is paved with our good intentions. Politicians may tackle
polluters while scientists do battle with carbon emissions. But the most pervasive
problem is less obvious: our own behaviour. We get distracted before we can turn
down the heating. We break our promise not to fly after hearing about a neighbour’s
trip to India. Ultimately, we can’t be bothered to change our attitude. Fortunately for
theplanet,socialscienceandbehaviouraleconomicsmaybeabletodothatforus.
[B] Despite mournful polar bears and charts showing carbon emissions soaring, most
people find it hard to believe that global warming will affect them personally. Recent
polls by the Pew Research Centre in Washington, DC, found that 75-80 percent of
participants regarded climate change as an important issue. But respondents ranked it
lastonalistofpriorities.
[C] This inconsistency largely stems from a feeling of powerlessness. “When we can’t
actuallyremovethesourceofourfear,wetendtoadaptpsychologicallybyadoptinga
range of defense mechanisms,” says Tom Crompton, change strategist for the
environmentalorganizationWorldWideFundforNature.
[D] Part of the fault lies with our inner caveman. Evolution has programmed humans to
pay most attention to issues that will have an immediate impact. “We worry most
about now because if we don’t survive for the next minute, we’re not going to be
around in ten years’ time,” says Professor Elke Weber of the Centre for Research on
Environmental Decisions at Columbia University in New York. If the Thames were
lapping around Big Ben, Londoners would face up to the problem of emissions pretty
quickly. Butin practice, ourbrain discounts the risks —and benefits—associated with
issuesthatliesomewayahead.
[E] Matthew Rush worth, of the Department of Experimental Psychology at the
University of Oxford, sees this in his lab every day. “One of the ways in which all
agents seem to make decisions is that they assign a lower weighting to outcomes that
aregoing to befurther away in the future,” he says. “This is a very sensibleway for
ananimaltomakedecisionsinthewildandwouldhavebeenvery helpfulforhumans
forthousandsofyears.”
[F] Not any longer. By the time we wake up to the threat posed by climate change, it
could well be too late. And if we’re not going to make rational decisions about the
future,othersmayhavetohelpustodoso.
[G] Few political libraries are without a copy of Nudge: Improving Decisions About
Health, Wealth and Happiness, by Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein. They argue that
governments should persuade us into making better decisions—such as saving more
in our pension plans—by changing the default options. Professor Weber believes that
environmental policy can make use of similar tactics. If, for example, building codes
included green construction guidelines, most developers would be too lazy to
challengethem.
[H] Defaults are certainly part of the solution. But social scientists are most concerned
about crafting messages that exploit our group mentality (心态). “We need to
understand what motivates people, what it is that allows them to make change,” says
ProfessorNeilAdger,oftheTyndallCentreforClimateChangeResearchinNorwich.
“It is actually about what their peers think of them, what their social norms are, what
is seen as desirable in society.” In other words, our inner caveman is continually
lookingoverhisshouldertoseewhattherestofthetribeareupto.[I] The passive attitude we have to climate change as individuals can be altered by
counting us in —and measuring us against—our peer group. “Social norms are
primitive and elemental,” says Dr. Robert Cialdini, author of Influence: The
Psychology of Persuasion. “Birds flock together, fish school together, cattle herd
together.. .just perceiving norms is enough to cause people to adjust their behavior in
thedirectionofthecrowd.
[J] These norms can take us beyond good intentions. Cialdini conducted a study in San
Diego in which coat hangers bearing messages about saving energy were hung on
people’s doors. Some of the messages mentioned the environment, some financial
savings, others social responsibility. But it was the ones that mentioned the actions of
neighboursthatdrovedownpoweruse.
[K] Other studies show that simply providing the facility for people to compare their
energy use with the local average is enough to cause them to modify their behaviour.
The Conservatives plan to adopt this strategy by making utility companies print the
averagelocalelectricityandgasusageonpeople’sbills.
[L] Social science can also teach politicians how to avoid our collective capacity for self-
destructive behaviour. Environmental campaigns that tell us how many people drive
SUVs unwittingly(不经意地)imply that this behaviour is widespread and thus
permissible. Cialdini recommends some careful framing of the message. “Instead of
normalising the undesirable behaviour, the message needs to marginalise it, for
example, by stating that if even one person buys yet another SUV, it reduces our
abilitytobeenergy-independent.”
[M] Tapping into how we already see ourselves is crucial. The most successful
environmental strategy will marry the green message to our own sense of identity.
Take your average tradeunionmember, chancesarethey will bepoliticallymotivated
and be used to collective action—much like Erica Gregory. A retired member of the
Public and Commercial Services Union, she is setting up one of 1,100 action groups
with the support of Climate Solidarity, a two-year environmental campaign aimed at
tradeunionists.
[N] Erica is proof that a great-grandmother can help to lead the revolution if you get the
psychology right—in this case, by matching her enthusiasm for the environment with
a fondness for organising groups. “I think it’s a terrific idea,” she says of the
campaign. “The union backing it makes members think there must be something in
it.” She is expecting up to 20 people at the first meeting she has called, at her local
pubintheCornishvillageofPolperro.
[O] Nick Perks, project director for Climate Solidarity, believes this sort of activity is
where the future of environmental action lies. “Using existing civil society structures
or networks is a more effective way of creating change... and obviously trade unions
are one of the biggest civil society networks in the UK,” he says. The “Love Food,
Hate Waste” campaign entered into a collaboration last year with another such
network—the Women’s Institute. Londoner Rachel Taylor joined the campaign with
theaim ofmaking new friends. A year on, the meetings have made lasting changes to
whatshethrowsawayinherkitchen.“It’salwaysmoreofanincentiveifyou’redoing
itwith other people,” shesays. “Itmotivates you more if you know that you’ve gotto
providefeedbacktoagroup.”
[P]Thepowerofsuchsimplepsychologyinfightingclimatechangeisattractingattention
across the political establishment. In the US, the House of Representatives Science
Committee has approved a bill allocating $ 10 million a year to studying energy-
related behaviour. In the UK, new studies are in development and social scientists are
regularly spotted in British government offices. With the help of psychologists, thereisfreshhopethatwemightgogreenafterall.

PassageOne
Questions46to50arebasedonthefollowingpassage.
More than a decade ago, cognitive scientists John Bransford and Daniel Schwartz,
both then at Vanderbilt University, found that what distinguished young adults from
childrenwas notthe ability toretain facts orapplyprior knowledge to anew situationbut
a quality they called “preparation for future learning.” The researches asked fifth graders
and college students to create a recovery plan to protect bald eagles from extinction.
Shockingly, the two groups came up with plans of similar quality (though the college
students had better spelling skills). From the standpoint of a traditional educator, this
outcome indicated that schooling had failed to help students think about ecosystems and
extinction,majorscientificideas.
The researchers decided to go deeper, however. They asked both groups to generate
questionsaboutimportantissuesneededtocreaterecovery plans.Onthis task, theyfound
large differences. College students focused on critical issues of interdependence between
eagles and their habitat(栖息地).Fifth graders tended to focus on features of individual
eagles (“How big are they?” and “What do they eat?”). The college students had
cultivated the ability to ask questions, the cornerstone of critical thinking. They had
learnedhowtolearn.
Museums and other institutions of informal learning may be better suited to teach
this skill than elementary and secondly schools. At the Exploratorium in San Francisco,
we recently studied how learning to ask good questions can affect the quality of people’s
scientificinquiry.Wefoundthatwhenwetaughtparticipantstoask“Whatif?”and“How
can?” questions that nobody present would know the answer to and that would sparkexploration, they engaged in better inquiry at the next exhibit —asking more questions,
performing more experiments and making better interpretations of their results. Specially,
their questions became more comprehensive at the new exhibit. Rather than merely
askingaboutsomethingtheywantedtotry,theytendedtoincludebothcauseandeffectin
their question. Asking juicy questions appears to be a transferable skill for deepening
collaborativeinquiryintothesciencecontentfoundinexhibits.
This type of learning is not confined to museums or institutional settings. Informal
learning environment tolerate failure better than schools. Perhaps many teachers have too
little time to allow students to form and pursue their own questions and too much ground
to cover in the curriculum. But people must acquire this skill somewhere. Our society
depends on them beingable to make critical decisions abouttheir own medical treatment,
say, or what we must do about global energy needs and demands. For that, we have a
robust informal system that gives no grades, takes all comers, and is available even on
holidaysandweekends.

PassageTwo
Questions51to55arebasedonthefollowingpassage.
“ There’s an old saying in the space world: amateurs talk about technology,
professionalstalk aboutinsurance.”In aninterview lastyear with TheEconomist,George
Whitesides, chief executive of space-tourism firm Virgin Galactic, was placing his
company in the latter category. But insurance will be cold comfort following the failure
on October 31st of VSS Enterprise, resulting in the death of one pilot and the severe
injurytoanother.
On top of the tragic loss of life, the accident in California will cast a long shadow
overthefutureofspacetourism,evenbeforeithasproperlybegun.
The notion of space tourism took hold in 2001 with a $ 20 million flight aboard aRussianspacecraftbyDennisTito,amillionaireengineerwithanadventurousstreak. Just
half a dozen holiday-makers have reached orbit since then, for similarly astronomical
pricetags. Butmore recently, companieshavebegunto planmoreaffordable“suborbital”
flights —briefer ventures just to the edge of space’s vast darkness. Virgin Galactic had,
prior to this week’s accident, seemed closest to starting regular flights. The company has
already taken deposits from around 800 would-be space tourists, including Stephen
Hawking.
After being dogged by technical delays for years, Sir Richard Branson, Virgin
Galactic’s founder,hadrecentlysuggested thataSpaceShipTwocraftwould carryits first
paying customers as soon as February 2015. That now seems an impossible timeline. In
July, a sister craft of the crashed spaceplane was reported to be about half-finished. The
other half will have to wait, as authorities of America’s Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA)andNationalTransportationSafetyBoardworkoutwhatwentwrong.
In the meantime, the entire space tourism industry will be on tenterhooks (坐立不
安). The 2004 Commercial Space Launch Amendments Act, intended to encourage
private space vehicles and services, prohibits the transportation secretary (and thereby the
FAA) from regulating the design or operation of private spacecraft, unless they have
resulted in a serious or fatal injury to crew or passengers. That means that the FAA could
suspend Virgin Galactic’s license to fly. It could also insist on checking private manned
spacecraft as thoroughly as it does commercial aircraft. While that may make suborbital
travelsafer, itwouldadd significantcostand complexity to anemerging industry thathas
untilnowoperatedlargelyastheplaygroundofbillionairesanddreamyengineers.
How Virgin Galactic, regulators and the public respond to this most recent tragedy
will determine whether and how soon private space travel can transcend that playground.
There is no doubt that spaceflight entails risks, and to pioneer a new mode of travel is to
freethoserisks,andtoreducethemwiththebenefitofhard-wonexperience.

最近，中国政府决定将其工业升级。中国现在涉足建造高速列车、远洋船舶、机
器人，甚至飞机。不久前，中国获得了在印度尼西亚(Indonesia)建造一条高铁的合同;
中国还与马来西亚(Malaysia)签署了为其提供高速列车的合同。这证明人们信赖中国
造产品。
中国造产品越来越受欢迎。中国为此付出了代价,但这确实有助于消除贫困，同时
还为世界各地的人们提供了就业机会。这是一件好事，值得称赞。下次你去商店时,可
能想看一看你所购商品的出产国名。很有可能这件商品是中国造的。
