Hilo doesn’t know where he’s from, why he fell out of the sky, what he’s doing on Earth — or why he can’t go

A little girl ran to her bedroom and pulled out her piggy bank (储蓄罐) from a secret drawer in her closet. She
took the change from it and counted it carefully three times.
She carefully placed the coins in a jar and twisted on the cap. She took the jar and slipped out of the back
door. She made her way six blocks to a drug store. She waited patiently for the pharmacist ( 药剂师) to give her
some attention but he was too busy attending other customers at that moment. She tried several times to get his
attention but failed. Finally, she took a quarter from her jar and hit it on the glass counter, which was finally able to
get her some attention.
“What do you want, little Miss?” the pharmacist asked the tiny girl in the front of his counter. “My brother is
really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle,” the girl answered back. “I beg your pardon?” said the pharmacist.
“My brother is really sick and my daddy says only a miracle can cure him now. So, I want to get a miracle for him.
How much does it cost?” “I’m sorry but I can’t help you. We don’t sell miracles here, little girl,” the pharmacist said,
softening a little.
Next to the little girl was a tall well-dressed man. He lowered himself and asked the little girl, “What kind of a
miracle does your brother need?” “I don’t know,” the girl replied with her eyes in tears. “I just know he is very sick
and has something bad growing inside his head. Doctor says he needs an operation. But daddy can’t afford it, so we
need a miracle to save him now. I can use all my money to save my brother.” “How much do you have?” asked the
man. “One dollar and twelve cents, it’s all the money I have now, but I can get some more if needed,” the girl
answered in a whisper. “Well, what a coincidence,” smiled the man. “That is the exact price of a miracle for a little
brother. Take me to your brother. Let’s see if I have the miracle your brother needs.”
The man was a famous nuerosurgeon (神经外科医生). He was just the right person needed to save the little
boy’s life. The operation was completed without any charges and it went successfully.
Her mommy wondered how much it would have cost. The little girl just smiled, but said nothing.

Over the next decade, technology will decimate more jobs in many professions.
Some robots already cost less to operate than the salaries of the humans they replace, and they are getting
cheaper. Boston Consulting Group predicts that, by 2025, the operating cost of a robot that does welding (焊接) will
be less than $2 per hour, for example. That’s more affordable than the $25 per hour that a human welder earns today
in America.
Uber and many other companies are working on developing cars and trucks that don’t need a driver in the
driver’s seat. According to the American Trucking Associations, approximately 3 million truck drivers were
employed in the United States in 2010, and 6. 8 million others were employed in other jobs relating to trucking
activity. So roughly one of every 15 workers in the country is employed in the trucking business. We could be
talking about millions of jobs disappearing in the early 2020s.
And then there is the “Gig Economy (零工经济)” that has some businesses moving toward part-time, on-
demand employment. Uber has already done this to taxi drivers, and other technology companies are doing it to a
wide range of jobs. A study by Intuit predicted that, by 2020, 40% of American workers will be self-employed, and
that full-time jobs will be harder to find. We are talking about 60 million people in this category. The problem is that
not only do such part-time workers lack reliable full-time jobs and sick pay, but they can’t enjoy health insurance
and longer-term benefits.
The measures to be taken are to raise trade barriers. But closing the doors to foreign trade won’t bring jobs
back. It will only slow the global economy and hurt American exports, shrinking the U. S. economy and accelerating
job loss.
46．The underlined word “decimate” in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by “______”.
A．make someone interested in
B．equip someone for
C．wipe out
D．bring back
47．What will happen with technologies developing according to the text?
A．Robots will become smarter and smarter.
B．Uber’s labor cost will be lower and lower.
C．More and more truck drivers will be needed.
D．Taxi drivers can enjoy more health insurance.
48．Which of the following is an advantage of a full-time job?
A．It may be flexible.
B．It may offer sick pay.
C．It is full of adventure.
D．It is always well-paid.
49．Which of the following does the writer agree on?
A．Welcoming foreign trade.
B．Offering more part-time jobs.
C．Using fewer robots to stop job loss.
D．Developing more new technologies.
50．What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing the text?
A．To show technology advances in our daily life.
B．To prove technologies cause low incomes.
C．To introduce what the Gig Economy is.
D．To warn the Gig Economy is coming.
D
“A lie is halfway around the world before the truth has got its boots on.” It’s a well-known saying. But a more
accurate version would be: “A confidently told lie is halfway around the world before the truth has got its boots on.”
Because basically, we humans are far more likely to accept and believe information delivered confidently. By a
confident person, or by a source using confident language, etc.
When two or more people are involved in a decision-making process where they know different things,
confidently expressed arguments are perceived as delivering better information, which determines the decision. And
as the modern world has shown us repeatedly, this regularly leads to undesirable outcomes.
Why would this tendency come about? Well, humans are highly gregarious, and during our evolutionary (进
化的) development, most of our information about the world came from other people. So, if ancient humans heard
someone confidently declare “There’s a tiger coming”, instinctively (本能地) believing them was a valuable survival
skill.
Confidently delivered information may be more persuasive, but that doesn’t mean it’s correct, even if the
confident person genuinely believes it is. We’ve all met someone who confidently lectures others on how the world
works, despite being wrong about literally everything. It’s the Dunning-Kruger effect, where people with low
ability/experience/knowledge about something often significantly overestimate their abilities/ expertise regarding it.
This is because the ability to recognize your intellectual limits requires sufficient intelligence. Lacking that,
you won’t question your (limited) understanding, so you can mouth laughable nonsense with total confidence.
We live in a highly interconnected, increasingly complex society, where countless people and worldviews end
up overlapping ( 重叠) constantly. So, someone who is objectively, unquestionably wrong, but still unshakably
confident can end up convincing many others that they’re right.
Left unchecked, it can end up with individuals with no abilities beyond unshakeable confidence being put in
charge. And that won’t end well for anyone.
51．What tendency is presented about humans in the first two paragraphs?
A．Hating bad results much.
B．Believing lies too easily.
C．Trusting confident statements.
D．Lacking decision-making skills.
52．What does the underlined word “gregarious” in paragraph 3 mean?
A．Sensitive.
B．Competitive.
C．Ignorant.
D．Social.
53．Why do some people fall into the Dunning-Kruger effect?
A．They aren’t wise enough.
B．They are hard to persuade.
C．They aren’t questioned by experts.
D．They are afraid of admitting mistakes.
54．In what tone is the last paragraph written?
A．Approving.
B．Doubtful.
C．Enthusiastic.
D．Concerned.
55．Which of the following statements is TRUE based on the text?
A．Confident people are always right.
B．Confidence always leads to positive outcomes.
C．Confidence can mislead people.
D．Lies are easier to detect than truths.
