Extreme athletes have been using wingsuits(翼装)to fly for many years. However, the pull of gravity
makes it impossible to speed up or fly higher. To push past the limitations, Peter Salzmann teamed up with German
car maker BMW. The result is an electrified wingsuit, which allows flyers to rise to higher altitudes at the speed of
up to 186 miles per hour!
The 33-year-old professional wingsuit pilot first thought of creating the design in 2017, "At the time, I was
developing suits for skydiving with a friend," he explains. "One evening after a day of testing, we threw out lots of
ideas about how we could improve performance. One of them was a supporting motor-and it's an idea I just couldn't
shake off. I found the idea of being able to jump from my local mountain wearing the wingsuit and land in my
garden exciting."
To help with the process, Salzmann reached out to the experts at BMW's Designworks Studio. It took the team
three years and multiple test jumps to perfect the design. The result is an updated version of wingsuit with two 5-
inch propellers(螺旋桨), Powered by a battery, the propellers can be controlled using an on/off switch and even
stopped mid-flight using the emergency button, if the flyer encounters an airplane or a flock of birds.
On November 6, 2020, Salzmann, wearing his hi-tech suit, leaped from a helicopter from an altitude of 10,000
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂feet to soar around the mountain peaks. The expert pilot fired up the electric motors and rocketed forward, gliding
above four mountain peaks. The task completed, the pilot opened his parachute(降落伞)and gently landed.
It is unclear if Salzmann and BMW plan to make the electrified wingsuits available to the general public. But,
one can always hope!
4. What do we know about the new wingsuit?
A. It flies faster and higher.
B It breaks away from gravity.
C. It's equipped with a car motor.
D. It has been used for many years.
5. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. What Salzmann's friend did to help him.
B. What Salzmann experienced in his career
C. How Salzmann became a professional pilot.
D. How Salzmann came up with the new design.
6. What can the flyer do to deal with the danger during the flight?
A Press the emergency button. B. Reach out to an expert.
C. Check the propellers. D. Open the parachute.
7. What does the underlined word "soar" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Explore. B. Search. C. Fly. D. Dig.

Masks that helped save lives are proving a deadly danger for wildlife, with birds and sea creatures trapped in
the shocking number of thrown-away facial coverings. Single-use masks have been found around pavements,
waterways and beaches worldwide. Worn once, the thin protective materials can take hundreds of years to
decompose. “Face masks aren't going away any time soon—but when we throw them away, these items can harm
the environment and the animals,” Ashley Fruno of animal rights group PETA said.
In Britain, a gull was rescued by the RSPCA after its legs became tangled in the straps of a mask for up to a
week. The animal welfare charity took it to a wildlife hospital for treatment before its release.
The biggest impact may be in the water. More than 1.5 billion masks made their way into the world's oceans
last year, accounting for around 6,200 extra tonnes of ocean plastic pollution, according to environmental group
Oceans Asia.
Conservationists in Brazil found one mask inside the stomach of a penguin after its body was washed up on a
beach, while a dead pufferfish was discovered caught inside another off the coast of Miami. French campaigners
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂found a dead crab trapped in a mask near the Mediterranean. Masks and gloves are “particularly problematic” for
sea creatures, says George Leonard, chief scientist from NGO Ocean Conservancy. “When those plastics break
down in the environment, they then enter the food chain and impact entire ecosystems.” he added.
There has been a shift towards greater use of reusable cloth masks as the pandemic has worn on, but many are
still using the lighter single-use varieties. Campaigners have urged people to bin them properly and cut the straps to
reduce the risk of animals becoming trapped. Oceans Asia has also called on governments to increase fines for
littering and encourage the use of washable masks.
8. What's Paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. The problem of littering masks. B. The long time to break down masks.
C. The threat of masks to wildlife. D. The protective use of masks to people.
9. What did the animal welfare charity do to the gull?
A. They gave first aid to the bird. B. They released the bird at once.
C. They kept the bird for about a week. D. They sent the bird to hospital.
10. How is Paragraph 4 developed?
A. By providing examples. B. By giving explanations.
C. By making comparisons. D. By analyzing causes.
11. Which measure has been taken to help solve the problem?
A. Forbidding the use of single-use masks. B. Wearing reusable cloth masks.
C. Cutting the masks up before throwing. D. Increasing fines for binning masks.
D
Like infectious diseases, ideas in the academic world are epidemic (传染的). But why some travel far and
wide while equally good ones has been a mystery? Now a team of computer scientists has used an epidemiological
model to simulate (模仿) how ideas move from one academic institution to another. The model showed that ideas
originating at famous institutions caused bigger “epidemics” than equally good ideas from less famous places,
explains Allison Morgan, a computer scientist at the University of Colorado Boulder.
“This implies that where an idea is born shapes how far it spreads,” says senior author Aaron Clauset.
Not only is this unfair— “it reveals a big weakness in how we’re doing science,” says Simon DeDeo, a
professor of social and decision sciences at Carnegie Mellon university, who was not involved in the study. “There
are many highly trained people with good ideas who do not end up at top institutions. They are producing good
ideas, and we know those ideas are getting lost,” DeDeo says. “Our science, our scholarships, is not as good
because of this.”
The Colorado researchers first looked at how five big ideas in computer science spread to new institutions.
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂They found that hiring a new faculty member accounted for this movement a little more than a third of the time--
and in 81 percent of those cases, transmissions took place from higher – to lower-prestige (声望) universities. Then
the team simulated the spread of ideas using an infectious disease model and found that the size of an idea
“epidemic” depended on the prestige of the originating institution.
The researchers’ model suggests that there “may be a number of quite good ideas that originate in the middle
of the pack, in terms of universities.” Clauset says. There is a lot of good work coming out of less famous places.
he says: “You can learn a huge amount from it, and you can learn things that other people don’t know because
they’re not even paying attention.”
12. How did the scientists carry out their research?
A. By making use of a model. B. By analyzing previous data.
C. By comparing different results. D. By interviewing different people.
13. According to Simon DeDeo, What can we infer in Paragraph 3?
A. All the people with higher education have good ideas.
B. Some scholarships aren’t given to the right people.
C. Most good ideas come from not-so-great institutions.
D. People with higher education should work in top institutions.
14. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?
A. The causes of the results. B. The importance of the research.
C. The findings of the research. D. The characteristics of big ideas.
15. What may be the best title for the passage?
A. Spread good ideas as far as possible.
B. Best ideas come from top institutions.
C. Save good ideas from less famous places.
D. Ideas from top institutions travel farther.
D
Prosocial behaviors are those intended to help other people. Behaviors that can be described as prosocial
include feeling empathy(同感) and concern for others and behaving in ways to help or benefit other people.
Prosocial behavior has long posed a challenge to social scientists seeking to understand why people engage in
helping behaviors that are beneficial to others, but costly to the individual performing the action. Why would
people do something that benefits someone else but offers no immediate benefit to the doer?
Psychologists suggest that there are a number of reasons why people engage in prosocial behavior. In many
cases, such behaviors are fostered during childhood and adolescence as adults encourage children to share, act
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂kindly, and help others. Prosocial behaviors are often seen as being compelled by a number of factors including
egoistic reasons (doing things to improve one's selfimage), reciprocal benefits (doing something nice for someone
so that they may one day return the favor), and more altruistic reasons (performing actions purely out of empathy
for another individual).
Characteristics of the situation can also have a powerful impact on whether or not people engage in prosocial
actions. The bystander effect is one of the most notable examples of how the situation can impact helping
behaviors. The bystander effect refers to the tendency for people to become less likely to assist a person in distress
when there are a number of other people also present. For example, if you drop your purse and several items fall
out on the ground, the likelihood that someone will stop and help you decreases if there are many other people
present. This same sort of thing can happen in cases where someone is in serious danger, such as when someone is
involved in a car accident. In some cases, witnesses might assume that since there are so many other present,
someone else will have surely already called for help.
Why do people help in some situations but not in others? Experts have discovered a number of different
situational variables that contribute to (and sometimes interfere with) prosocial behaviors. First, the more people
that are present decreases the amount of personal responsibility people feel in a situation. People also tend to look
to others for how to respond in such situations, particularly if the event contains some level of ambiguity. Fear of
being judged by other members of the group also plays a role. People sometimes fear leaping to assistance, only to
discover that their help was unwanted or unwarranted. In order to avoid being judged by other bystanders, people
simply take no action.
Experts have suggested that some key things must happen in order for a person to take action.
16. Prosocial behaviors are motivated for all the following reasons EXCEPT ________.
A. empathy for another individual B. instant benefits of helping others
C parental influences in the early life D. the desire to better one's selfimage
17. What does the underlined word “distress” in the fourth paragraph mean?
A. peace B. despair
C. comfort D. trouble
18. Which situation can be described as the bystander effect?
A. When hearing an injured lady crying for help, the neighbors didn't take action.
B. Seeing an old man slipping on the icy road, many people volunteered to help.
C. A woman was to give birth on the train and you were the only doctor there.
D. On the scene of your colleague's traffic accident, you called the police for help
19. After the last paragraph, the most possible topic could be ________.

I think the majority of people would agree that it’s unhealthy to live in the past. After all, we’re all familiar
with the new age philosophy, “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a
gift.________20________. Living in the past holds us back from being able to enjoy the present moment. But are
there any benefits of revisiting a previous time? Actually, yes. The past has several advantages:
Learning from our mistakes: We all know that poor choices can be some of life’s greatest
teachers._____21_____.
___22___: By revisiting an unfavorable event from our past, we can often view it from a different perspective
as time has passed. Being older and wiser, we are now able to reevaluate the experience and gain deeper insights
and understandings of what happened and why, and how it has impacted us since. What once scarred us can now be
healed through a newly-found awareness and no longer be a negative force in our lives.
Motivated by earlier successes:___23___. Other times life has been difficult. Remembering the past when we
were at our best can help motivate us out of our current slump(低谷) and put us back on track for success. Use your
past successes to propel(推动) you on to newer and greater things.
While it’s evident that revisiting the past has several advantages, there is a warning. Just like an amusement
park, it’s fine to visit but you cannot stay there forever. At some point, the park closes and all visitors are asked to
leave. Enjoy the past when necessary but don’t always stay there. Use it for living in the present and planning for
the future.____24____.
A. Moving beyond
B. That’s why it’s called the present
C. In that way, it will serve you well
D. See the mistakes as a step on the road to a solution
E. There are times when we have all enjoyed success on a variety of levels
F. Recalling times when we made mistakes can help us make better future decisions
G. So, failure is the mother of success

51. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The cost of a smile
Kathy was a young woman in her 20’s who worked in a small restaurant as a waitress. One day, as she went
about her shift with her usual angry look, a kind old man walked in and sat down at the counter. He read the menu
and politely told her what he wanted.
Kathy took his order and yelled, “Your food will be ready soon.” As she turned to leave, the man said, “A
smile costs nothing”. Kathy rolled her eyes at him and walked away.
She brought his order cleared his plates, and gave him the bill, for which he left a nice tip.
Each time the old man saw her, he smiled and thanked her. This only made her angrier.
A week went by, and every day the man came for lunch and the same thing happened. And each time Kathy
took his order he would say, “A smile costs nothing.”
But a week later, Kathy picked up a menu, wrote the words “1 SMILE … $20" at the bottom, and placed it on
the counter for the kind old man to see.
He came, and Kathy waited for his reaction as he read the menu. The old man ordered his usual and added,
“… and a smile, if you don’t mind”. Kathy was so surprised. She laughed out loud, “Now, now …” The man
jokingly scolded. “I ordered a smile, not a laugh”. So Kathy put on a bright smile and said, “Coming right up, sir.”
And to her surprise, he left $20 tip!
A few years went by, and the two bonded like family. Charlie, the kind old man, was a retired manager whose
wife passed away long ago. He spent most of his time at home, with the exception of his frequent restaurant visits.
Every day Kathy spent her break talking to him.
