22、You might try spending about 15 minutes out on the Web gathering experts’ predictions about what lies in the political future. You are likely to find a diversity of opinions on every issue. So, who should you believe? According to a long-term study conducted by psychologist Philip Tetlock, the safest answer is that you shouldn’t believe anyone. Let’s see why.

To study the collective wisdom of experts, Tetlock recruited a sample of 284 individuals who had strong qualifications for making political predictions with respect to certain countries or regions of the world. He asked individuals to make predictions of this sort: “How likely is it that after the next election, the party that currently has the most representatives in the legislative (立法的) branch of government will keep this status... will lose this status, or will strengthen this position?” The questions were made concrete for different countries and regions.

Because there were three options for each question, participants should have been right one third of the time just by chance. If they had true expertise, they should have been right much more often than that. But they weren’t. In fact, in some comparisons experts did worse than chance.

If experts perform so poorly in their predictions, why does anyone still listen to them? Because of experts’ confidence and fame. Besides, the media rarely tracks down the expert who made the confident prediction even if experts aren’t generally held responsible for their predictions.

Here’s a safe conclusion from Tetlock’s research: With regard to politics, no one can routinely predict the future. Some people do a bit better than others, but you can’t use their confidence or fame to know who those people are. Still, it’s important to note that this research is about a particular type of expert and a particular type of prediction. You shouldn’t discount all experts. For example,when you consult medical doctors, they should be able to make their predictions based on years of education and prior experience. Also, they are regularly held responsible for the accuracy of those predictions!

【1】What’s the function of the first paragraph?

A．To introduce the topic of the passage.

B．To introduce a way of doing the research.

C．To attract the interest of the readers.

D．To give the purpose of writing the passage.

【2】What might be the purpose of giving participants three options for each prediction?

A．To show the importance of the study.

B．To indicate experts did worse than chance.

C．To reveal experts are right one third of the time.

D．To compare participants’ predicting accuracy with chance.

【3】Which of the following agrees with Tetlock’s ideas?

A．Experts must be responsible for their prediction.

B．The opinions of political experts matter to the media.

C．Experts’ confidence and fame tell us a lot about who they are.

D．Medical experts are generally reliable in their medical prediction.

【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A．Can medical experts predict the future?

B．Can political experts predict the future?

C．How should you judge political experts?

D．How political experts predict the future?

23、   When returning to south-western Germany, where my parents live, it is compulsory for me to go on a hike to connect with nature and reconnect with myself. So, that is exactly what I did the first sunny Sunday back in the beautiful Black Forest. The Huzenbacher See is a tarn in the middle of the northern Black Forest with abundant nature surrounding it. Approaching it after a good hour walk, I saw fascinating blue dragonflies in quantity that attracted us by the way they flew around. They didn’t stand still for a photo, as they landed on leaves for a split second. We were also surprised at the yellow water lilies that can be seen floating on its surface between June and July.

Sitting down at one of the benches surrounding the lake for a picnic was satisfying in two ways. I was aware of the world’s beauty that gave me the energy to continue up the mountain to reach the most amazing view looking over the lake. The other was to really fill myself up in order to continue the adventure adequately, full up on some snacks and refreshing water from the well.

The hike up wasn’t as hard as expected and a good path was provided with dirty rocks and slippery stones all under the shade of the tall trees. This took about an hour and a half until reaching the beautiful view of the lake and land below. Once we had taken in the astonishing views, the walk back down took another hour or so, making the hike a 3-to4-hour round trip, which was well worth it!

Simply being back in the Black Forest and having such pleasant hikes is definitely good for the soul and I highly recommend getting yourself outside, be it in the Black Forest or anywhere outdoors. Get your intake of vitamin D and, most importantly, take in the moments that nature has to offer.

【1】What does the underlined word “tarn” in paragraph I refer to?

A. Tree. B. Tower.

C. Lake D. Village.

【2】How did the author feel when sitting on the bench?

A. Tired. B. Content.

C. Surprised. D. Excited.

【3】What did the author call on people to do?

A. Take vitamin D pills. B. Love and protect nature.

C. Save the soul and be yourself. D. Go outdoors and get close to nature.

【4】According to the author, being back in the Black Forest and having pleasant hikes does good to one’s ________.

A. health B. spirit

C. character D. experience

24、After shopping for deals in stores on “Black Friday”, or online on “Cyber Monday”, Americans and people worldwide are preparing for newly popular “Giving Tuesday”. Starting in 2012, now the global event that is celebrated annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving is the brainchild of 92nd Street Y, a cultural center in New York City and United Nations Foundation.

As the name indicates, Giving Tuesday is meant to restart the charitable season and therefore observed by raising funds for local nonprofits and schools, organizing food and clothing drives, and conducting random acts of kindness. In 2015, 700, 000 people from 71 countries came together to donate $116.7 million in cash. An additional $1.08 million was spent on gifts.

While the easiest way to participate is by donating to your favorite charity, this day can be celebrated in many other ways too. You can give back by volunteering at your local shelter or food bank, or even by donating blood. If all else fails, a purchase from the growing number of organizations that give a portion of their sales to charity will do the trick.

But perhaps the best way to celebrate the day is by helping those nearest and dearest to you. Assist a family member with a simple chore like folding laundry, cooking dinner, or even reading to a younger sibling. No matter what you do, be sure to share you good deed on social media and inspire others to celebrate Giving Tuesday as well!
