For generations, the name Milton Hershey has been a well-known word closely connected with fine chocolate products throughout the country and around the world. He was born in 1857 on a farm near Derry Church, a small Pennsylvania community. Frequent family moves interrupted his schooling and left him with limited education. He only completed the fourth grade.
Following a four-year apprenticeship (学徒期) with a Lancaster candy maker, he established his first candy-making business in Philadelphia. That initial effort failed, so did his next two attempts in Chicago and New York. Returning to Lancaster in 1883, Hershey persevered in his dream and finally established the Lancaster Caramel Company, which quickly became an outstanding success.
Hershey became fascinated with the German chocolate-making machinery exhibited at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition. He bought the equipment for his Lancaster plant and soon began producing various chocolate creations. Hershey sold the Lancaster Company in 1900 in order to focus entirely on his chocolate business.
Three years later, he returned to Derry Church to build a new factory. Through trial and error, he created his own formula (配方) for milk chocolate. In 1903 he began construction on what was to become the world’s largest chocolate plant. After its completion, Hershey’s milk chocolate quickly became the first nationally marketed product of its kind.
With Milton Hershey’s success came a great sense of social responsibility. Hershey created a complete new community around his factory. He built a model town for his employees that included comfortable homes, an inexpensive public transportation system, a quality public school system and broad cultural opportunities. The town of Hershey continues to be a special place for its residents and a popular attraction for millions of visitors each year. Indeed, Milton Hershey’s achievements do speak for themselves.
1. What stopped Hershey from having systematic school education
A. His lack of interest in study. B. His family’s continual relocation.
C. His failure to meet school requirements. D. His parents’ attaching little value to education.
2. Why did Hershey sell his Lancaster plant
A. The chocolate creation were of low quality. B. The plant had suffered a great financial loss.
C. His chocolate business required a lot of money. D. He decided to fully concentrate on his business.
3. Which of the following best describes Hershey
A. Generous and open-minded. B. Strict and well-behaved.
C. Determined and public-spirited. D. Humorous and ambitious.
B
Water shortage is one of the world’s biggest challenges. The World Health Organization (WHO) thinks one in three people globally do not have easy access to clean water. Desalinating (给……脱盐) ocean water could help. But currently-available desalination units typically require high-pressure pumps to push water through filters (过滤器), which makes it difficult to reduce their size without influencing the energy-efficiency of the device. Meanwhile, they are too expensive to set up widely.
Now, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have developed a convenient desalination machine. Unlike traditional desalination units, the MIT machine uses electricity to remove the salt and other small things from the ocean water. More importantly, the suitcase-sized device needs less power to run. It can also be powered by a small solar panel that costs less than $50. The lack of filters and the low electricity requirements make the machine extremely cheap to set up. “Ease of use was one of the main motivations for creating the device.” said one researcher.
After running lab experiments using water with different salinity (盐度) levels, they field-tested the device at Boston’s Carson Beach. The researchers set the box near the shore and put the tube into the water. In about half an hour, the device had filled a plastic cup with clear, drinkable water.
The researchers believe their invention can deliver drinking water meeting WHO quality standards with a push of a button. Meanwhile, a smartphone app allows the user to control the unit wirelessly and receive real-time data on power consumption and water salinity. It also sends out information when the water is drinkable.
The MIT team is now exploring ways to bring their machine to market. They believe it will benefit residents of small islands or those running away from natural disasters in the future.
4. What do we know about the current desalination units
A. They cannot work efficiently. B. They are usually large in size.
C. They were developed by MIT. D. They cannot stand high pressure.
5. Which aspect of the new desalination device is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The original purpose. B. The working process.
C. The practical advantages. D. The major components.
6. What makes the researchers confident in their invention
A. That it is user-friendly and effective.
B. That it can provide lots of real-time data.
C. That it can be supported by several smartphone apps.
D. That it has successfully passed many lab experiments.
C
If a stranger offered you a free cookie, you might well eat it. But what if they offered to also give you $2 You might politely decline and walk away thinking, “Something smells fishy.” In a study published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, researchers found that people tend to turn down offers of “free money” (as well as unusually high salaries or suspiciously cheap services) because they seem “too good to be true”. The research bridges economics and psychology to explain why financial attraction can backfire.
In the initial experiment, nearly 40 percent of participants ate a cookie offered freely, compared with about 20 percent of those offered $2 as well. “People typically imagine things like that someone did something disgusting to the cookie,” says study lead author Andrew J. Vonasch, a psychological scientist at University of Canterbury in New Zealand. Nine further experiments, involving more than 4,000 participants, used online questionnaires to present other cases. These included being offered money to accept a ride home, incredibly high construction-job wages and surprisingly cheap flights. In each case, past a certain threshold (门槛), higher financial profit reduced participants’ potential of accepting the offer.
If someone seems to go against accepted norms such as self-interest without explanation, we assume they have hidden motives and infer there will be “phantom costs”: imagined consequences that reduce what Vonasch calls an offer’s “psychological value”.
Factors beyond the present moment may come into play. “Understanding that others’ perceived over generosity may put us in their debt could also help explain people’s reluctance,” says Rachel McCloy, a psychologist studying decision-making at England’s University of Reading. “The old saying ‘there’s no such thing as a free lunch’ is clearly alive and well.”
Another experiment found that high scorers on measures of distrust inferred more phantom costs. The researchers also showed how to alleviate the effect: simply provide a reason for the deal. The “cheap flights” experiment included a condition where the seats were revealed to be very uncomfortable. “Uncomfortable seats aren’t typically a selling point,” Vonasch says. “But telling people the seats were uncomfortable made them more willing to take them because it was sufficient explanation.”
7. What does the underlined word “backfire” in Para. 1 mean
A. Result in an opposite effect.
B. Boost the success of an offer.
C. Increase the appeal of a proposal.
D. Cause a positive outcome unexpectedly.
8. Why is the quote “there’s no such thing as a free lunch” mentioned by the author
A. To prove the phantom costs.
B. To promote generosity in society.
C. To doubt hidden costs of generous offers.
D. To remind people to be cautious of free items.
9. What helps make the “cheap flights” more acceptable according to the experiment
A. Offering more flight credits.
B. Discounting the price further.
C. Providing additional unrelated gifts.
D. Giving a seemingly reasonable explanation.
10. Which could be the best title for the text
A. Why People Embrace High-Value Offers
B. Why People Reject Free Money and Offers
C. Why Some Deals Seem Too Good to Be True
D. How Offers of Money Increase Acceptance Rates

One pleasant New-year morning, Edward rose, washed and dressed himself in a hurry. He wanted to be the first to wish a happy New Year to his family. He turned up at every door of the house, and shouted the words of “Happy New Year” in an excited voice. After a quick breakfast he hopped along the street like a happy bird, greeted and repeated the words to those he met.
When he came back, his father gave him 50 dollars, saying he could buy whatever he had been wishing for. His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some interesting books that he had seen at the bookstore located near the river through the city. He thanked his father and danced out of the house again with a light heart, intending to buy those books.
As he ran down the street, he noticed a poor family, the father, the mother, and three children shivering with cold in the winter wind. “I wish you a happy New Year,” cried Edward as he was happily passing on. The man took a look at the happy boy and shook his head sadly.
Edward stopped and said, “It seems that you do not belong to this country.” The man again shook his head, a confused expression flashed over his face, for he could not understand or speak English.
But the poor man pointed to his dry mouth, and to the children with hungry looks, as if to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.”

【49题答案】
【答案】
Edward realized that these poor people were in trouble. He took out his dollars, and gave them all to the man. A wave of inexpressible warmth and gratitude came flooding when the man reached out his shivering hands for the shiny dollars. Taking a firm grip of them in one hand and holding Edward’s hand warmly, he stammered out words of thanks in his broken English. After wishing them a peaceful and happy New Year, Edward went back home. The moment he reached home, he couldn’t wait to share with his father his act of charity. Hearing that, his father gave him a thumb up.
“My dear boy,” said his father, “Here are a dozen of books for you.” He continued with satisfaction, “They are a reward for your kindness to people in need. You do deserve them.” Looking intently at what may be the best he had ever received, Edward felt an immense pride in himself, which flowed all over his body. Since then, these books given by his father have been serving as a constant reminder of the importance of lending a helping hand to others in trouble whenever he could.
