21、Gender Stereotypes Are Messing with Your Kid

Gender stereotypes are messing with your kid. It’s not just one movie. It’s not just one TV show. It’s constant exposure to the same dated concepts in the media over and over, starting before preschool and lasting a lifetime --- concepts like: Boys are smarter than girls: certain jobs are best for men and others for women; and even that girls are responsible for their own sexual assaults.

According to a recent report, which analyzed more than 150 articles, interviews, books, and other social-scientific research, gender stereotypes in moves and on TV shows are more than persistient.【1】 what make these messages stick --- and harder for parents to counteract – is that they’re timed for the precise moment in kids’ development when they’re most receptive to their influence.

Think of preschoolers who are just beginning to identify as boys or girls. The characters they see on TV often have an obvious masculine or feminine appearance, such as a superhero’s big muscles or a princess’ long hair. These characters also are often associated with specific traits---for example, being strong and brave or fearful and meek. 【2】 That “Strong and brave” superhero becomes aggressive and hostile. That “fearful and meek” princess becomes submissive and weak.

For young audiences who absorb ideas from the media on how to behave and what to become, these characterizations can lead to false assumptions and harmful conclusions. These oversimplified characterizations play out in many ways over and over. According to the report, a lifetime of viewing stereotypical media becomes so ingrained that it can ultimately affect kids’ career choices, self-worth, relationships, and ability to achieve their full potential.

And lots of parent are concerned about these issues, too. We polled nearly 1,000 parents across the country and found that they believe the media has a significant influence on their kids, from how girls should look and behave to how seeing violence can affect boys’ beliefs about themselves. 【3】Because, let’s face it: exaggerating the differences entertained. It’s not what we really want our kids to emulate.

While there are movies and TV shows that defy gender stereotypes---and Hollywood is making some progress on this front --- you’re not going to be able to prevent your kids from seeing everything that sends the wrong message. And your kids probably like a lot of media that reinforces stereotypes. 【4】When you actively role-model gender equality, speak out against stereotypes, and challenge outdated ideas, kids will hear that loud and clear.

A．Luckily, parents can assert control over the messages that Hollywood dishes out.

B．You have a lot of control over your kids’ media --- mostly when they’re little, but even as they grow.

C．Fortunately, the most powerful messages kids absorb are from you.

D．Ideally, self-segregate based on gender --- boys want to play with boys, and girls want to play with girls.

E．They’re incredibly effective at teaching kids what the culture expects of boys and girls.

F．Fast-forward to the tween and teen years, when characters begin to wrestle with relationships, life, and job prospects.

22、   Scientists called for wide-ranging research into whether more volcanoes, earthquakes and landslides could be triggered by rising global temperatures under global warming. Significant warming of’ the atmosphere in the distant past can be linked to changes- in geological activity, they say. Suggestions that climate change predicted for coming decades could bring similar changes remain speculative(猜测性的), but the scientists say there is enough evidence to take the threat seriously. Some experts have already linked current levels of global warming lo landslides in mountain regions.

Richard Betts, a researcher at the Met Office Hadley Centre, said, “This is a new interesting academic arena. It was previously assumed there was no link between climate change and geological events, but it is possible to speculate that climate change might make some more likely. If we do get large amounts of climate change in the long term, then we might see some impacts.”

Experts say global warming could affect geological risks because of the way it can move large amounts of mass around on the Earth’s surface. Melting glaciers and rising sea levels shift the distribution of huge amounts of water,which release and increase pressures through the ground. These pressure changes could make geological shifts more likely. Research from Germany suggests that the Earth’s surface can sometimes be so close to failure that tiny changes in its pressure can trigger quakes.

Writing in a special series of scientific papers on the topic published by the Royal Society, Bill MecGuire, head of the Benfield Hazard Research Centre at University College London, says, “In relation to man-made climate change, modeling studies and speculation of current trends point towards increased rink in relation to a range of geological rinks in a warmer world, while observations suggest that ongoing rise in global average temperatures may already be resulting in a risky response from the geosphere(陆界).”

【1】According to the passage, which aspect probably results in geological activities?

A．Global temperatures.

B．Human activities.

C．Water levels.

D．Global warming.

【2】What’s the idea of Richard Betts？

A．Research in global warming features something new and interesting.

B．The impacts of climate change in the long term are invisible.

C．Climate change is bound to trigger geological event8.

D．Geological events are not related to climate change.

【3】How could geological risks be affected?

A．By making the distribution of waters equal.

B．By causing the surface covered by sea water.

C．By changing the pressure of the Earth’s surface.

D．By leading to the occurrence of extreme weather.

【4】what is the best title for the passage？

A．One Well-known Assumption

B．Speculation on Global Warming

C．An Inspiring Scientific Discovery

D．A Possible Element in Geological Risks

23、Imagine a world where everything has their own virtual, real-time computerized replica (替身)—a digital double. That concept is known as the digital twin and it could provide a way to improve our lives in the real world. More than just imitation, digital twins take information from Internet-connected objects through Internet of Things (IoT) devices, use data almost instantly to see the effects of changing conditions and then make adjustments rapidly.

In construction, the digital twin means buildings become safer and cheaper to build because digital twins have access to real weather, structural and stress point data. Bridges like the Queensferry Crossing in Scotland, for example, use measurements of water level and wind speed to improve safety and manage traffic flow. Connected buildings then make smart cities, where buildings talk to one another and future function can be predicted. In Australia’s state of Victoria, local government is building a digital twin of the entire state.

Manufacturing is another sector being affected by digital twin technology. Placing thousands of sensors throughout the production line allows comp anies to see how work is performed at each step of the process, system efficiency and any bottlenecks.

Likewise, in healthcare, the digital twin concept means creating computer models of disease or even a virtual human body. Personalized medicines or treatments could then be developed using a medical twin of each patient. And even health problems could be cut out before they begin.

“I think maintaining a persistent set of computerized models that are constantly being updated and evolved alongside physical equivalents is really the essence of digital twins,” said Michael Kapteyn, a leading researcher studying digital twin computer models. In the foreseeable future, digital twins may eventually become an essential part of our everyday lives by enabling individuals without previous technical knowledge to finally get simple answers to complex questions.

【1】In what way do digital twins benefit people?

A．They create a colorful virtual world.

B．They provide a way to better people’s lives.

C．They improve the data through IoT devices instantly.

D．They promote the copies of Internet-connected objects.

【2】Why does the author mention the Queensferry Crossing in paragraph 2?

A．To clarify a detail.

B．To make a comparison.

C．To explain a rule.

D．To present an application.

【3】What can we expect of the digital twin technology?

A．It will popularize the application of sensors.

B．It may replace the traditional production line.

C．It might offer patients personalized treatments.

D．It could manage to avoid all health problems.

【4】What is vital for digital twins according to Michael Kapteyn?

A．Updating physical equivalents constantly.

B．Adding more sets of computerized models.

C．Enabling people to figure out tough questions.

D．Keeping a digital double renewed continually.

24、   Personal technology and digital connectivity had advanced so far that people had begun to ask, “Do we really need to be together, in an office of knowledge-work organizations, to do our work?” We got our answer during the pandemic (流行病) lockdowns. We learned that a great many of us don’t in fact need to be collocated with colleagues on-site to do our jobs. So now we face new questions: Are all-remote or majority-remote organizations the future of knowledge work? Is work from anywhere (WFA) here to stay?

To better understand how leaders can capture the upside of WFA while overcoming the challenges and avoiding negative outcomes, I’ve studied several companies that have accepted remote models. One striking finding is how greatly workers benefit from these arrangements. Remote work really makes a difference.

The office—with its meeting rooms and informal interactions—has been a way of life for so long that it’s hard to imagine getting rid of it. However, the Covid-19 all-remote experiment has taught many knowledge-work organizations and their employees that with time and attention, these concerns can be addressed.

Knowledge sharing is a major challenge. Distributed colleagues cannot hit one another on the shoulder to ask questions or get help. At GitLab all team members have access to a “working handbook”. It currently consists of 5000 searchable pages. All employees are encouraged to add to it and taught how to create a new topic page, edit an existing one, a video and so forth.

Of course, WFA may not be possible at this time for some organizations, such as manufacturing companies—though that could change with advances in 3D printing and other technologies. However, with the right strategy and technologies, many other companies and teams could go completely or mostly remote. The question is not whether work from anywhere is possible but what is needed to make it possible. The short answer: management.

【1】The underlined phrase in the second paragraph “capture the upside of” possibly means ________.

A．take advantage of

B．look forward to

C．get away from

D．prevent the risk of

【2】The author is most likely to agree that ________.

A．all knowledge-work organizations should learn from GitLab’s practice

B．it is possible to carry out the WFA model in the manufacturing industry now

C．how WFA will be managed is going to be the key to making it become a reality

D．the office is the only place where both formal and informal interactions can be conducted

【3】The author holds a(n) ________ attitude towards the work-from-anywhere model.

A．critical

B．negative

C．optimistic

D．indifferent

【4】What’s the best title of the passage?

A．The downsides of WFA

B．Our work-from-anywhere future

C．Ways to address concerns about WFA

D．Questions coming from digital connectivity
