26、Aspirin was discovered in 1897, and an explanation of how it works followed in 1995. That, in turn, has encouraged some research leads on making better pain relievers through something other than trial and error. This kind of discovery—answers first, explanations later—is called “intellectual debt”. We gain understanding of what works without knowing why it works. We can put that understanding to use immediately, and then tell ourselves we’ll figure out the details later. Sometimes we pay off the debt quickly; sometimes, as with aspirin, it takes a century; and sometimes we never pay it off at all.

In the Age of Intelligence, while machine learning presents lots of problems and gets things wrong, at least we know enough to be wary of the predictions produced by the system and to argue that they shouldn’t be blindly followed: but if a system performs perfectly (and we don't know why), then we come to rely on it and forget about it and suffer consequences when it goes wrong.

It’s the difference between knowing your car has faulty brakes and not knowing: both are bad, but if you know there is a problem with your brakes, you can increase your following distance, drive slowly and get to a mechanic as soon as possible. If you don't know, you're likely to find out the hard way, at 80mph on the highway when the car in front of you came to a sudden stop and your brakes give out.

We don’t have much by way of solutions. Most important, we shouldn’t trick ourselves into thinking that machine learning alone is all that matters. Indeed, without life value, machine learning may not be meaningful answers at all.

【1】What is the purpose of mentioning aspirin in the first paragraph?

A．To present the research process of aspirin.

B．To introduce a similar situation machine learning faces.

C．To show the difficulty in explaining how aspirin works.

D．To prove we can use something even when we don't understand.

【2】What does the underlined word “wary” probably mean in the second paragraph?

A．Negative.

B．Doubtful.

C．Anxious.

D．Watchful.

【3】How does the writer prove that it's potentially worse if a system performs perfectly?

A．By giving a definition.

B．By making comparison.

C．By doing an experiment.

D．By telling a story.

【4】Which of the following statements is the writer likely to agree with?

A．It’s impossible to pay off Intellectual debt.

B．It’s wise not to rely on machine learning.

C．It makes sense to prepare for danger in times of safety.

D．It’s OK as long as a system works well.

27、The most popular surname in Germany and Switzerland is Müller, while in Ukraine, it’s Melnik; both are words for a miller. And in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the US, it’s Smith—as in blacksmith, silversmith, locksmith, gunsmith. These names date back as far as the Middle Ages, when a person’s job was such a defining characteristic that it became their literal identity.

How did work become to be so connected with identity—and is it too late to separate our perceptions of self from our professional lives?

Historically, most people didn’t get to choose their jobs, says Anne Wilson, a professor of psychology. “It was usually generational—your father was a carpenter, so you were a carpenter,” she says. “Or, you’d just take a job based on the opportunities available.”

Those who let their jobs consume their identities may be doing so at their own expense. When people invest a large amount of their time and energy into their career, explains Wilson, it can lead to a psychological state called “enmeshment”, where the boundaries between work and personal life are blurred.

Wilson points out that doing work you love is not a bad thing, nor is considering what you do for a living an important part of who you are. But she says moving away from a system where people are defined primarily by their jobs will take more than realizing there is a problem. “We often set people up to feel dissatisfied; if they don’t find themselves in that perfect job, they’ve somehow failed,” she says.

“Rather than big, very difficult changes, get hobbies a little at a time, make friends a little at a time,” she suggests. “Ultimately, you have to diversify your life. Diversify yourself.”

【1】What’s the function of Paragraph 1?

A．To introduce the origins of some surnames.

B．To present the most popular surnames in different countries

C．To lead in the topic of relationship between jobs and identity.

D．To compare the difference between surnames in different countries.

【2】According to Anne Wilson, how did most people decide their work in the past?

A．They inherited it from their families.

B．They chose it themselves.

C．They had to work as carpenters.

D．They chose it based on various opportunities.

【3】What does the underlined word “blurred” in Paragraph 4?

A．Confused.

B．Distinguished.

C．Enlarged.

D．Formed.

【4】In order not to be defined by jobs, what does Wilson suggest people do?

A．Make big and difficult changes.

B．Feel dissatisfied with themselves.

C．Find right positions in their jobs.

D．Enrich their life step by step.

28、In the 2010s, 34-year-old Brianne Miller travelled around the world as a marine biologist. No matter how remote the location, she made the same alarming discovery: Copious amounts of plastic littering the water and threatening marine life.

Canadians throw out three million tons of plastic waste each year. Approximately one third of all food produced worldwide goes to waste, too, according to a United Nations study. Miller, determined to fix the problem at the source, envisioned a shop that went further than banning plastic bags—a place that eschewed both wasteful packaging and the bad habit of wasting food itself.

In 2015, she called a store in Vancouver, explaining how her mission mirrored that brand’s emphasis on sustainability, and convinced its managers to host her first pop-up. She sold out in one afternoon—and knew she was onto something.

In June 2018, after another year and a half of successful pop-ups, Miller opened one of the first zero-waste grocery stores in Canada. She named it Nada, and ensured everything was designed to make the zero-waste shopping experience easy. You can bring your own containers, though it’s not necessary: right by the front door are well-organized bins of “upcycled” sanitized glass or plastic containers, free for the taking.

Nada sells the food items you’d expect and hundreds you wouldn’t, all 100 percent package-free. The suppliers must have a social or environmental mission, and just as importantly, they must work to reduce waste in their own supply chain.

Miller is clear that the store doesn’t try to compete on price. For example, popcorn kernels at a generic store may cost 70 cents per 100 grams; at Nada, a customer might pay $1 per 100 grams, knowing that the kernels are organic and non-GMO.

The early days of the pandemic were tough on the business. Nada closed its doors to the public for 18 months. Miller turned to online ordering and delivery, though in a very Nada way. Carbon neutral deliveries are made by c-bike and, as of February, via a fleet of electric vehicles.

Those containers do so much more than just reduce waste. They get people thinking big, just as Miller had hoped they would. “They’re tagged with Nada stickers, so you can see how many times the container has been used,” she says, and then smiles.

【1】When travelling around the world, what did Brianne Miller discover?

A．One third of all food produced worldwide went to waste.

B．Most of what Canadians picked up came from food packaging.

C．Lots of plastic littering the water was threatening marine life.

D．Everything could be designed to make the zero-waste shopping experience easy.

【2】What does the underlined word “eschewed” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A．Avoided and stayed away from.

B．The activity of offering

C．Worried about or feared something

D．Left something undone.

【3】What is the correct order for the following events?

a. Miller determined to solve the problem about waste at the source.

b. Miller opened one of the first zero-waste grocery stores named Nada.

c. Miller convinced a store to host her first pop-up.

d. Miller closed Nada to the public for 18 months and then turned to online ordering and delivery

A．a-b-c-d.

B．a-c-b-d.

C．c-d-b-a

D．b-c-a-d.

【4】Why might a customer pay more dollars for popcorn kemels at Nada?

A．Because Nada tries to compete on price.

B．Because bulk food sales were restricted.

C．Because zero-waste shopping can come with savings.

D．Because the kernels at Nada are organic and non-GMO.
