As the underwater robot OceanOneK carefully navigated toward the upper deck railing of the sunken Italian steamship Le Francesco Crispi about 500 m below the Mediterranean’s surface this month, roboticist Oussama Khatib felt as though he himself were there.
OceanOneK looks like a human diver from the front, with eight multi-directional thrusters (推进器) that allow careful operation underwater. The robot’s touch-based feedback system and 3D vision produced incredibly realistic sensations that equaled what he would have experienced were he down below, rather than above onboard the control ship. Observing through OceanOneK robot’s eyes and feeling through its hands, Khatib perceived a new dimension of colorful life — pink and green and orange — layered on and around the ship. He felt the resistance of the water and could recognize the shapes of the historic relic around him.
The mission of OceanOneK to these depths had two purposes: to explore places no one has gone to before and to show that human touch, vision, and interactivity can be brought to the sites far-removed from where people can operate.
While OceanOneK had many noteworthy adventures and successes during two multi-stop trips around the Mediterranean, the accomplishment of the team and the ship’s crew was demonstrating functional autonomy at nearly 1,000 m down. It was this advance that earned OceanOne’s. renaming to OceanOneK.
“This is the first time that a robot has been capable of going to such a depth, interacting with the environment, and permitting the human operator to feel that environment,” said Khatib. “It has been an incredible journey.”
“Distancing humans physically from dangerous and unreachable spaces while connecting their skills and experience to the task promises to fundamentally alter remote work,” said Khatib. “Robotic avatars (化身) will search for and acquire materials, build structures, and perform disaster prevention and recovery operations — be it deep in oceans and mines, at mountain tops, or in space.”
24. How does OceanOneK work
A. By sending operators deep down the ocean.
B. By enhancing divers’ vision underwater.
C. By creating an at-the-scene experience.
D. By measuring the resistance of water.
25. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The origin of OceanOneK’s name.
B. The demonstration of the ship’s crew.
C. The noteworthy successes of the team.
D. The adventures around the Mediterranean.
26. What does Khatib talk about robotic avatars in the last paragraph
A. Their promising future. B. Their technical advances.
C. Their present applications. D. Their scientific significance.
27. Which of the following might be a suitable title for the text
A. OceanOneK: Taking on a New Dimension of Colorful Life
B. OceanOneK: Connecting Human Sensations to Deep Sea
C. Robotic Avatars: Saving Human from Disasters
D. Robotic Avatars: Altering Human Work Patterns
C
Sleep is an ancient, universal experience. But it is only in the past half century or so that it has attracted the attention of dedicated researchers. A new book from Kenneth Miller sets out to record the field’s short but fascinating history.
The early pages of the book, before there is much in the way of established science to describe, are the weakest. A good deal of time is spent on biographical details and portraits of the world through which Nathaniel Kleitman, an influential scientist working on sleep, moved. But the story soon picks up. It roams (漫步) from the discovery of rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep to the effects of sleep shortage.
One section even describes a modern quantitative research of circadian-rhythm — the biological clocks that govern human’s days — that took place in a purpose — built facility in a Bavarian village. The lab sported two apartments, with no window or clocks to clue their subjects into what was happening outside. Test subjects lived there for weeks, free to wake and sleep whenever they liked — but never free from the thermometers (体温计) that were attached to the wall by long electric lines.
There is a serious side, too. Shift work interferes with the body’s internal clocks and raises the risk of illness. Mr. Miller also explains the slow recognition of sleep apnoea, a common sleep disorder, and the damage it can cause.
Discoveries often lead to new questions in turn. That is why neat, tidy endings are hard to achieve in science books. Despite all the progress of the past 50 years, scientists are still unsure what sleep is for. The fact that it is so widespread suggests it is vital. But why evolution would see it fit to produce animals that must spend large amounts of their time unable to respond to threats is still a mystery researchers are trying to solve. For anyone curious about asking the right questions, however, Mr. Miller’s book is a good place to start.
28. What can readers expect to read at the start of the book
A. The development of sleep research.
B. The discovery of rapid-eye-movement.
C. The influence of Kleitman’s research.
D. The account of Kleitman’s life experiences.
29. What do we know about the subjects in the experiment according to Paragraph 3
A. They lived in a modern sports lab.
B. They could do whatever they liked.
C. They had to take their temperature every day.
D. They were cut off from the outside world.
30. What does the underlined phrase “interferes with” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Enhances. B. Disturbs. C. Generates. D. Transforms.
31. The book is suitable for you if you want to know ________.
A. why evolution favors a good sleep
B. what threats sleep poses to animals
C. where sleep research is heading for
D. how scientists solve sleep disorders
D
Autonomously copying other people’s thoughts or options or simply going with the crowd is often referred to as “herd (群体) behaviour”. Herding can appear to make a lot of sense. In an earlier article, I discussed the so-called “wisdom of crowds”, which suggests that average judgments of large groups of people often outperform individual choices.
Psychology research has attempted to model herd behaviour and suggests that the phenomenon relies on the existence of social connections or patterns between individuals as well as specific mechanisms of passing on information. A key condition is the human ability to “mentalize”, which means being able to read and interpret someone else’s mental state and using the information to explain their options. This action of mentalizing is responsible for people’s tendency to attach meaning to options by the herd, even if many behaviours may have come about at random.
Herd behaviours, while common. and easy to explain, hold significant dangers. Contrary to the so-called “wisdom of crowds”, which emerges when the judgments of individual group members are independently collected to produce an average opinion, herd behaviours typically rely on so-called “information cascades”, where people take on others’ beliefs or copy their options without critically evaluating the underlying reasons. This frequently leads to the mirroring of unreasonable or stupid behaviours.
Blindly following the herd can be dangerous. So how can we resist the tendency of following the crowd The sad news is that psychology research suggests that it’s surprisingly difficult to withstand the influences of the herd. In an experiment, researchers found that warning messages about the potential errors of the crowd were surprisingly ineffective in helping subjects make better choices. It appears there is no quick and easy fix. Instead, long-term attitude changes may be necessary, which could involve individuals adopting more critical approaches towards their peers’ opinion, and questioning others’ behaviours as opposed to blindly following them.
32. Why does the author mention “wisdom of crowd” in Paragraph 1
A. To introduce the definition of herd behaviour.
B. To contradict the judgments of large groups.
C. To attract readers to his previous discussion.
D. To justify the behaviour of following others.
33. What makes herd behaviour possible according to psychology research
A. Heavy reliance on social activities.
B. Ineffective mechanism of information exchange.
C. Attaching meaning to crowd’s random choices.
D. Analyzing individuals’ mental state.
34. How does the author develop Paragraph 3
A. By defining. B. By quoting.
C. By making a comparison. D. By giving an example.
35. What is probably the best policy if we want to resist herd behaviours
A. Following your heart. B. Thinking twice before action.
C. Working out a quick fix. D. Taking peers’ opinion seriously.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you feel like there are too many things to do in a day, but not enough time to do them If so, you’re experiencing what researchers call time poverty.
36 . The standard reply to “How are you ” is often “I’m so busy!” Many people find it increasingly difficult to spare time to see friends, pursue a hobby, or take a vacation. Some people even take great pride in how busy they are because it’s become a status symbol. 37 . Fortunately, here are specific steps we can take to feel more time affluent (富足的) and more socially connected.
If you want a satisfying social life, buy time for it. You might pay to have a disliked housework done by others, get a direct flight instead of a cheaper one with a stopover, or pay extra to drive the fastest route home. 38 , like calling a friend or hanging out with your kids.
Another way to get more time is to give it away. In one study, researchers asked people to devote part of their Saturday morning to doing something for themselves that they weren’t already planning to do or doing something for someone else. The people who gave away their time later felt like they had more of it. 39 .
If you have too many things to do and not enough time to do them, try to cut back on some things. 40 . You can probably choose to slow down a little and make more time for casual chats with co-workers and unplanned get-togethers with friends.
A. Time poverty is a sign of the times
B. Helping others expands our sense of time
C. Buying time is a good way to free you from the boredom of repeated tasks
D. The choices we make with our time greatly affect our happiness and social lives
E. Then invest your free time in something socially engaging
F. You don’t have to keep up with the pace of the modern world
G. Yet, feeling short on time is associated with lower level of happiness and connection

Sharing New Year with Strangers
I come from a large multicultural family, spread out across the globe. Despite being found in distant corners of the world, we’re a tight-knit family that makes an effort to stay close and keep in touch. New Year has always been a special time for us and a chance for us all to come together, no matter where in the world we might be.
My aunt Samantha, known affectionately by everyone in the family as Mantha, loved New Year and always went out of her way to make it cosy and magical for everyone around her. Mantha was kind, fun and full of energy so it wasn’t hard to get into the New Year spirit when she was around.
This year was no exception. Mantha drove three hours from her house in Bournemouth to visit everyone two weeks before New Year and to drop off presents to her friends still in the area. We chatted merrily about our plans, laughed at how organized Mantha was — presents already bought and wrapped and the freezer full ahead of the big day — and kissed goodbye when it was time to leave. So just several days before New Year, when Mantha’s son called us saying Samantha had passed away suddenly at home, none of us could quite believe it. I’d only been messaging her the day before, sharing voice notes like we always liked to do.
Mantha had had a blood clot (血块) that had unfortunately travelled to her lung and despite the paramedic’s best efforts, they were unable to save my beloved, fun, wonderful aunt.
So close to New Year, none of us felt like celebrating and we decided we’d have a quiet day at home, surrounded by family. The silence lasted until my sister-in-law, Vera, told us about some colleagues of hers who’d just arrived in the UK far away from friends and family. And they were eager to experience a proper English New Year.
