Public perception of success in the U.S. might be totally misguided
While 92% of people believe others care most about fame and ------2.L, fewer than
10% factor those qualities into their own success. This is according to the newly __]]__
study by Harvard Graduate School of Education professor Todd Smith. Smith says he was 记
R__ by how past studies on success "assumed what people will care about." In this
study, his team "went the _____12__ direction" by spending years carrying out individual
笔
interviews and group surveys to see what people really talk about when they talk about
success.
的
As a scientist, Smith ___lQ__ studied individuality for a living, and even he was
surprised to find younger respondents cared more about having a ____lL_ in life. Those
菌
between the ages of 18 and 34 prioritized it most, and that prioritization dropped off as
respondents' ages went up. Perhaps this is because older people had fewer options when
they were starting their careers, at a time when values foc语used more on stable incomes than
32 personal missions.
Other trends included an emphasis on the importance of parenting. Being a parent

2022年9月英语四级真题1套 第4页共10页一Section B
Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it.
Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the 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 corresponding letter on
Answer Sheet 2.
How a rabbit study and an ex-student boost my hopes for a future of'love and dignity'
A) At whatever grade level teachers find themselves, from kindergarten to the final class at
medical or law school, few moments stir the emotions as deeply as when former
students reappear years and often decades later with an update on where their journey
has taken them and what resiliencies （韧性） have been the pavement on which they've
traveled.
B) So it was when a recent letter came from Kelli Harding, a student 21 years ago in my
Peace Studies summer course in Washington. The weekly tuition-free class, in a roomy记
space that Ralph Nader and his Public C山zen nonprofit group provided, was
discussion-based and required no useless homework or exams. Just come in and figure
笔
out how to increase peace and decrease violence. And do it today, tomorrow is too late.
The course attracted mostly congressional interns （实习生）， with a few exceptions like
Kelli who was in Washington as an AmeriCorps volunteer.
的
C) Her year-long service included comforting AIDs patients at a free health clinic and
delivering meals to the homebound. It was a world apart from her undergraduate days at
菌
the University of California- Berkeley majoring in political science. The Washington
experience, which Kelli would later call u transformative, was the fuel that carried her
into medicine to earn a master's degree in public hea语lth from Columbia University and
a medical degree from the University of Rochester, and almost two decades of practice
as an emergency-room psychiatrist （精神科医生） at New York-Presbyterian Hospital
英
and a clinical professor of psychiatry at Columbia University Irving Medical Center
D) Kelli's letter, a literate update on both her personal and professional life, touched my
heart, and especially so when saying that two decades later she still has the course text,
"Solutions to Violence," and that "it remains one of my favorite possessions." She lives
in Lower Manhattan with her husband, Padraic, whom she met on a flight to London,
and their three boys.
E) If Kelli stands out, it's because she is also a gifted writer. Last month, Atria Books
published her book The Rabbit Effect: Live Longer, Happier, and Healthier with the
Groundbreaking Science of Kindness.
F) With a blending of free-flowing confessional prose and scholarly research found in 461
notes, Kelli met my expectations that her ideas and ideals would be sound and singular.
"Despite our scientific progress," she writes, "Americans are remarkably unhealthy. In
2016, the United States ranked forty-third in the world for life expectancy.... It is also
by far the world's most expensive place to get sick."
G) Enter the rabbits-not those running around in our woodlands but ones serving in two
month-long medical experiments to test the effects of eating a high-fat diet and the
connections between cholesterol and heart disease. With similar diets, the expectations
2022年9月英语四级真题1套 第5页共10页一were that all the rabbits would have similar cloggings of their arteries （动脉堵塞） ．Yet
one group had 60% fewer of them.
H) The reason? Instead of receiving the standard care given to lab animals,t he 60% group
was watched over by a newcomer to the lab who, Kelli writes, "handled the animals
differently.W hen she fed her rabbits she talked to them and petted them. She didn't just
pass out food, she gave them love….The studies indicate something is missing in the
traditional biomedical model. It wasn't diet or genetics that made a difference in which
rabbits got sick and which stayed healthy.I t was kindness."
I) Amid the political noise about Obamacare, Medicare, Medicaid, health insurance and
伽eving pharmaceutical (医药的） companies,Kelli Harding stands apart from the
crowd calling for quick fixes,t he simpler the better. She has walked too many miles in
the halls of hospitals visiting too many far-gone patients and seeing too many medical
血stakes to go along with conventional thinking
J) "The rabbit effect," she explains,m eans that "when it comes to our health, we've been
记
missing some crucial pieces: hidden factors behind what really makes us healthy.
Factors like love, friendship, and dignity. The designs of our neighborhoods, schools,
and workplaces.T here's a social dimension to health that we've completely ove笔rlooked
in our efforts to find the best and most cutting-edge medical care.… Ultimately, what
affects our health in the most meaningful ways has more to do with how we treat one
的
another, how we live, and how we think about what it means to be human than with
anything that happens in the doctor's office."
菌
K) In more than a few passages, she relates the stories of men and women who came up
against assembly- line medicine where patients were treated mostly as pieces of flesh
"Clinically," she writes," it's common to see two patients with the same condition,s uch
语
as recovering from a heart attack, have two very different courses based on seemingly
irrelevant factors, such as their family relationships or their educational levels. In my
practice, the sickest people I see often sha英re similar backgrounds: loneliness, abuse,
poverty,o r discrimination.F or them,t he medical model isn't enough.I t's like fixing up
an ai lane engine and ignoring that the pilot is on his third drink at the bar and a
rp
massive storm is overhead….To properly care for patients,w e also need to care about
the lives of the people getting the care."
L) Kelli wastes no time taking potshots at （随意批评） the medical establishment and its
body-centered biomedicine methods. Instead, she remains positive, holding up for
praise one of her medical school professors, George Engel, "who always noticed not
just a patient's physical condition but little details about her life, such as if she had
family pictures up in her hospital room or flowers delivered.H e was the kind of trusted
doctor you'd feel relieved to see and welcome into the room with a sick family member.
He'd sit down to talk with the patient not just about medical problems, but about her
life and priorities.H e built a large consultation service to address the holistic （整体的）
needs of hospitalized patients,i ncluding psychological and social factors."
M) It's a guess how many George Engels in their white jackets are at work these days and
another speculation on the number of Kelli Hardings the nation is blessed with.M ay the
totals be large and getting larger.

Section C 的
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions
or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked AJ, BJ, CJ and DJ
菌
You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2
with a single line through the centre.
语
Passage One
Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.
Academic dishonesty is nothing new. A英s long as there have been homework
assignments and tests, there have been cheaters. The way that cheating looks has changed
over time, though, particularly now that technology has made it easier than ever. A study by
the Josephson Institute of Ethics interviewed 23,000 high school students and asked them a
variety of questions about academic ethics. Of the teens surveyed, 51 percent said that they
had knowingly cheated at some point on an exam but that they did not feel uneasy about the
behaviour. A Common Sense Media survey found that 35 -percent of students had cheated
via smartphone, though the parents surveyed in that particular study did not believe the订
如ds had ever cheated. In many cases, students did not realize that strategies like looking up
answers on a smartphone were actually cheating at all.
In today's classrooms, students who cheat are rarely caught. There are no formulas
written on the insides of hands or students looking across the aisle, or whispering answers
to their classmates. Today's students use smartphones, tablets or even in-class computers to
aid their cheating attempts and leave no trace of their crimes. Since cheating through
technology is not listed specifically as being against the rules in many school policies,
students do not view the actions unethical.
2022年9月英语四级真题1套 第7页共10页一The technology is being adopted so quickly that school districts cannot adequately
keep up with cheating policies, or even awareness campaigns that alert students to the
problem with using technology to find answers in a certain way. From a young age,
students learn that answers exist conveniently at their fingertips through search engines and
expert websites.
Schools must develop anti-cheating policies that include technology and these policies
must be updated consistently. Teachers must stay on guard when it comes to what the订
students are doing in classrooms and how technology could be playing a negative role in
the learning process. Parents must also talk to their kids about the appropriate ways to find
academic answers and alert them to unethical behaviours that may seem innocent in their
own eyes.
46.What do we learn from the study by the Josephson Institute of Ethics? 记
A) Over half of the students interviewed were unaware they were cheating.
B) Cheating was becoming a way of life for a majority of high school teens
笔
C) More than half of the interviewees felt no sense of guilt over cheating.
D) Cheating was getting more and more difficult for high school students.
的
47. What did the Common Sense Media survey reveal?
A) Most parents tended to overprotect their children. 菌
B) Many students committed cheating unknowingly.
C) Students were in urgent need of ethical education.
语
D) Parents and kids had conflicting ideas over cheating
48. Why do students rarely get caught cheating n英owadays?
A) They copy formulas on their palms
B) They help each other to cover up their acts.
C) They keep changing their ways of cheating
D) They make use of modem technology.
49. What does the author think schools should do to tackle cheating?
A) Bring policies against cheating up to date.
B) Reform their exam methods constantly.
C) Take advantage of the latest technolog比S
D)Alert parents to their children's behaviour.
50. What does the author suggest teachers do in the classroom?
A) Prevent students from overusing electronic devices.
B) Develop more effective anti-cheating strategies.
C) Find more ways to curb students' unethical acts.
D) Guard against students5 misuse of technology.
2022年9月英语四级真题1套 第8页共10页一Passage Two
Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.
Remote work is about more than just working from home—it means working
小fferently. Organizations should reconsider the appropriateness of their performance
evaluation procedures in light of the shift to remote work. This requires a fundamental
rethinking of what organizations expect from employees and what companies would look
for in a model employee in a remote work context.
It is likely that the "first to arrive and last to leave" mentality is no longer relevant, but
should be replaced by a regard for the quality of an employee's contribution to the
organization. This means that work should be measured in terms of the quality of the work,
not just the quality of the process. As remote work is largely unobservable to supervisors,
employers need to think about how they can objectively measure the quality of work in a
way that is consistent for employees of similar rank. 记
Focusing on output alone can have unintended consequences. Employers should think
instead about the values and soft skills they want to emphasize in a remo笔te work
environment. Qualities like flex伽lity and the ab山ty to work under minimal supervision
血ght become critical. Much has been written about the importance of tim的ely feedback. In
the context of a global pandemic （大流行病）， firms may want to provide additional support
to employees by providing more frequent communication. This allows managers to both
菌
keep an eye on struggling employees and provide ongoing feedback on how employees are
adapting to their new work environment.
语
Compensation also needs to be revisited. The purpose of performance evaluation is
ultimately to determine how to reward employees for their work. This means that pay
英
structures need to adapt to the reality of working from home. However, organizations also
need to be honest with employees about the financial impact of COVID-19.
For organizations that have struggled to keep the lights on due to the pandemic, this
might mean thinking of non-financial ways to reward employees, like unpaid time off or
flexible work schedules. Employers can also consider how to bundle different types of
compensation to help employees cope with their unique situations
51. What does the author say companies should do in the context of remote work?
A) Reform performance evaluation.
B) Rethink the organizational fundamentals.
C) Reexamine its effects on employees'behaviors
D) Reflect on its differences from working in the office.
52. What should be prioritized in assessing employees'remote work?
A) The quantity of their output
B) The length of their work time.
2022年9月英语四级真题1套 第9页共10页一C) The quality of their contribution.
D) The flexibility of their work schedules.
53. What quality in the employees would be of great importance in a remote work context?
A) The ab山ty to produce quality work
B) The ability to maximize work efficiency.
C) The ability to finish tasks in a timely manner.
D) The ability to work with the least supervision.
54. Why is it important for firms to provide timely feedback during the pandemic?
A) To evaluate their employees of similar rank in a consistent way
B) To keep a watchful eye on those employees who perform poorly
C) To help employees in need adapt to the new work environment.
记
D) To maintain connections with their employees away from office
55. What is the author's suggestion to employers who experience the financial impa笔ct of the
pandemic?
A) Urging their employees to adapt to the new situation.
的
B) Rewarding their employees in unconventional ways
C) Identifying employees who make little contribution.
菌
D)Allowing their employees to look for part-time jobs
