It’s almost impossible to go through life without experiencing some kind of failure. People who do so probably live so cautiously that they go nowhere. Put simply, they're not really living at all. But, the wonderful thing about failure is that it's entirely up to us to decide how to look at it.We can choose to see failure as “the end of the world,” or as proof of just how inadequate we are. Or, we can look at failure as the incredible learning experience that it often is. Every time we fail at something，we can choose to look for the lesson we’re meant to learn. These lessons are very important, they’re how we grow, and how we keep from making that same mistake again. Failures stop us only if we let them.Failure can also teach us things about ourselves that we would never have learned otherwise. For instance, failure can help you discover how strong a person you are. Failing at something can help you discover your truest friends, or help you find unexpected motivation to succeed.人生几乎不可能不经历某种失败。没有经历失败的人可能生活得过于谨慎，以至于也不会有什么成就。简单地说，他们根本就没有真正地生活。然而，失败的美妙之处在于，如何看待失败完全取决于我们自己。我们可以选择把失败看作是“世界末日”，或者是我们能力不足的证明。或者，我们可以把它看作是难以置信的学习经验，它经常是如此。每当我们在某件事上失败时，我们可以选择寻找我们应该学到的教训。这些教训非常重要，它们是我们成长以及避免再次犯同样错误的方式。失败只有在我们允许的情况下才能阻止我们。失败也可以教会我们一些关于我们自己的东西，如果没有失败，我们永远也学不到这些东西。例如，失败可以帮助你发现你是多么强大。某些事情上的失败可以帮助你发现最真诚的朋友，或者帮助你找到通向成功意想不到的动力。

“真题是最好的复习资料。”“把1年真题吃透，胜过刷10年真题。”我想，真题有多重要，你我他都知道。但是，你真的会“做”真题吗？你真的深入思考过该怎么最大化利用真题吗？如果你从未想过该怎么做，如果你正在迷茫中摸索，快停下正在滑动屏幕的手指头，一起来看看怎么从真题中“榨”出更多分数吧！（说明：本文重点以考研英语为例，但原则性的思想所有科目都是互通的。）先思考一个问题：历年真题，你是“无区别”对待吗？面对历年真题，很多同学的做法都是“一招走天下，以不变应万变”——拿起试卷册从头做到尾，然后打开解析册从头看到尾。可是，你知道吗？在不同的复习阶段，我们遇到的障碍是不同的，需要根据每个阶段的核心目标制定相应的解决方案。就像和一个人“从相遇到相识，从相识到相知，从相知到相思”，你能跳过矜持羞涩，跳过彼此试探，直奔主题吗？当然不能！所以，划重点，历年真题千万不能“无区别”对待！接下来，我们以“第一遍：精研真题”为例，讲讲该怎么“区别对待”真题（刷题后面会单独再讲）。“天下大势，分久必合，合久必分。”精研真题，也要拿出这分分合合的魄力！建议大家在第一遍精研真题时，认准3个阶段，按照“合—分—合”的步骤来做。今天就先说第一个阶段：“合”在一起测一测！（预备阶段）操作其实很简单，在正式复习考研英语之前，找一套完整的真题来测一测自己的真实水平，这样做的目的是：（1）检测自己和考研的差距。经常听到有人问：“我英语基础很差，上国家线是不是很危险？”“我四级没过，英语一有没有可能考70分？”“我六级过了，考研是不是很简单？”考研到底有多难，每个人的感知是不一样的——所谓“难易程度”，反映的其实是自身水平和考研试题之间的差距大小。做套真题，一切就清清楚楚明明白白了。（2）制定更科学的目标分数。这个科目到底是要保底过线不被刷下去，还是要考高分拉开和其他人的差距？做套真题，你就能做出判断——自身水平和考试差距过大，则保底过线；差距一般，则努力冲刺更高分数；差距很小，则一定要保证得高分（当然，这只是初步定位，后续可以视复习情况进行调整——有的科目可能你的底子并不好，但大幅提分的潜力非常大）。（3）选择适合自己的真题书。就英语而言，目前市场上的详解书可以分为两大类：一类是《考研真相》和《考研圣经》这样“逐词逐句讲真题”的书籍，“一句一句图解语法，一句一句注释词汇”，文章讲解非常详细（当然试题解析也很详细）；剩下的基本都是“一篇文章平均分析一两个长难句”的真题书，文章分析相对粗略，只是试题解析比较详细。不知道自己到底该选什么样的书？很简单！做套真题测一测。如果一篇文章超过三五句都看不懂，那么建议英语一选择《考研真相》，英语二选择《考研圣经》（会的句子可以不看，或简单浏览，检验自己的理解是否有误，重点看自己不会的部分）；如果一篇文章每一句都能看懂，或者也就一两句看不懂，那么用什么书对你而言其实区别都不大（文章看懂了，试题一般不会做不对；如果试题怎么都做不对，多半是因为文章没看懂）。基础薄弱专用真题shu（4）制定适合自己的复习计划。真题要做多少套？文章应该怎么精读？试题应该怎么分析？真题要刷多少遍？……这些问题也需要根据你测试的结果，即综合自身水平与考试差距，以及自己制定的目标分数来判断（当然还要考虑其他因素，比如你有多少可以有效利用的时间）。注意事项：（1）在测试时，不要用早年试题，最好从近3年真题中选择！虽说近几年真题很宝贵，最好留到考前进行演练。但是早年试题往往比现在简单，不能帮助我们准确了解自身差距。如果你实在舍不得近3年真题，至少从2010年之后的真题中选择一年进行检测。（实际上，如果你不是实实在在的学霸，就考研英语的难度，即便用2020年真题进行检测，等到考前再做时，都未必记得自己曾经做过同样的试题。）（2）不要只做选择题，翻译和写作都要一起测。虽然就早期水平而言，我们很难看出自己的翻译对不对，写的作文能得多少分。但是相信我，做一遍之后，你会更加清楚自己和考研英语的距离有多远。（3）注意记录测试时间。考试需要我们在3小时之内答完所有的考研英语试题。如果你的卷面答得还不错，但做一整套试题总共花了五六个小时，那说明自己和考试差距也不是很小，还是要花费较多精力好好复习。（说明：严格来说，这个环节应该是考研英语总复习的预备阶段，不属于精研真题范畴。但因为很多同学都忽视了这一环节，加上它其实为后续的真题复习指明了具体方向，所以特意在此强调一下，希望能引起大家的重视。）

做英语真题分为两个阶段：一个是精读，一个是精做精读：基本上记完必考词就可以开始精读真题了精做：一般都是在6月之前语法词汇过至少过完1-2遍了开始，最晚不能超过暑假首先给大家看看考英语一或者英语二应该买哪些真题备注：O表示考英语一需要做的年份题型；⌒表示英语一or英语二都可用，只积累词汇； √表示考英语二需要做的年份题型。①10年之前的真题没有区分英语一和英语二。②01-04年的题型和现在有所差别，所以这4年的可以在背了一个月词汇之后，拆开拿来精读，尤其是阅读部分。③05-09年的真题英语一和英语二都是一样的，所以这个阶段的题英语一和英语二都全刷。④英语一（10-20）年的真题考英语二的同学可以在分题型练习的时候用作辅助练习，英语二（10-20）的真题同理考英语一的同学可以作文辅助练习。其次给大家说说真题具体的规划安排备注：以上的规划只是真题的用法，在6月前除了真题精读，重心应放在词汇以及长难句上。没有过四级的同学在6月之前必考词至少要过两遍，基础词一遍，句句真研要过一遍；介于四六级之间的同学可以根据自己的情况补，先把词汇或者语法先重点过一遍；过了六级的同学，如果已经有一定词汇量或者有语法基础了，就可以过了一遍核心词汇之后就从真题里面背，图表里用来补充练习的年份的翻译就可以在这个阶段用再给大家说说真题书怎么选①考英语一的同学如果不考数学，不跨专业，专业课压力比较小，英语又几乎零基础的同学可以用考研真相，在复习过程中尽量精翻全文。如果其他科的压力比较大，复习又比较晚，可以直接用张剑黄皮书，在复习中尽量只翻译破题句或者破题段，给其他科留一些时间。②考英语二的同学因为英语一和英语二的真题都要买，可以买英语一（01-20）年的张剑黄皮书，英语二（10-20）的考研圣经还有后期会反复做真题，可以提前复习1-2份真题或者买一份手译本，关于手译本怎么用我在后面会提到！关于阅读如何精读前期阅读精读的作用在于对文章思路的了解以及单词语法。尤其是对于英语基础相对薄弱的同学而言，精读真题就非常高效了！但是有一个前提！！！如果四六级都过了，且词汇量均在5500+，可以过一遍核心单词后就直接开始研究真题阅读，从真题继续扩展词汇量。如果四级没过，或者考了几次才飘过的，建议先用红宝书打一下词汇基础。把词汇基础扩展到5000+再去分析和研究真题，以及真题上的陌生单词，注意陌生单词需要有目的性的摘选，尤其是句子里不认识的动词和形容词！那么如何精读呢？第一步：通读全文，注意每段首尾句，大致了解全文的大概主旨意思，圈出文章中不认识的词语，先把中文意思查找出来，不要标记在文中。这一步的意义在于对文章的难易程度提前摸个底，估算一下自己词汇量不足的地方第二步：梳理出每句的主干以及其他成分，先口译主干部分，然后再口译其他成分，最后把其他成分放入主干中，按照翻译顺序翻译整个句子。这一步主要是检验一下自己的语法水平，对句子结构的掌握情况第三步：对比解析，查漏补缺。根据答案解析，看看自己的问题在哪，在6月之前就主要看结构方面，尤其是句子其他定语成分，状语成分位置顺序是否正确。第四步：摘抄文章中不熟悉的词汇。之前查找了一遍单词，在翻译过程中，还是想不起的单词摘抄出来，重点记忆；翻译问题比较大的句子也可以摘抄下来或者重点标记，后期补充复习。关于真题如何精做考英语一的同学可以在6-11月期间精做英语一（05-15）年的真题。考英语二的同学可以在（6-11）月期间精做英语一（05-09），英语二（10-15）年的真题。第一阶段：3-4天定时（3 h）做真题（2个月）1.第一天定时（3 h）做一套真题，前两周里面可以不用写作文,只需要摘抄作文里面的词组和作文框架就可以了。做题的时候，最好按照先看问题标记关键词→粗读文章掌握主旨→细读文章，扣细节做题的顺序2.第二天核对答案，摘录文章中的陌生单词，标记出线索句，根据答案解析做好错题笔记，比如这道题的出题类型，主要是为了熟悉历年来的阅读文章类型，熟悉真题阅读出题的方向；3.第三天翻译阅读中的线索句，错误率比较高的文章尽量全文翻译，还有翻译题中错了的句子。做完之后再比对解析，看看自己翻译的译文结构上是否有问题，如果问题比较大，再用一天的时间回到长难句书上再做一下类似的题或者看阅读课。第二阶段：研究阅读错题原因（1个月）看自己是因为单词做错了，还是句子理解错误，或者是对文章整体方向的把控错误导致的做题错误，研究自己做错的原因，记录问题（重点），并标记每道错题的所属题型。在看解析的时候，重点看题型正确答案的分析思路。然后继续重复第一遍精析句子和查词背单词的步骤；总结完做的11年真题之后，看看自己常错的题型有哪些，出现这些错误的原因有哪些，找出问题后，大家可以看唐静或者其他老师阅读课的解题技巧，然后用英语一/英语二辅助练习的阅读检验一下。第三阶段：分题型练习真题（3个月）阅读20天：每天做一套真题的阅读，做完之后根据答案标记错误题型，做了10天之后，研究一下这期间自己错误最多的题型，可以花1-2天看看视频课这类题型的解题方法，剩下10天按照自己理解的方法再做阅读。新题型10天：前6天按照把（05-15年）真题的新题型做完，做完之后总结小标题和多项对应这两类题型错题原因以及解题方法，后面可以做做模拟题的新题型练手。翻译15天：前8天把（01-15）年的翻译做完，做完了总结一下自己的问题，不懂的地方可以回到长难句解析书上巩固一下，后面可以拿句句真研长难句部分练手。小作文15天/大作文20天：关于作文的复习，背任何模板都没有自己上手练的效果来得快，建议大家自己上手练习，根据答案解析的模板，整理适合自己的模板。完型10天：对于基础极差的同学完型部分千万不要放弃，只要好好准备，至少是可以拿到5-6分的，这几分就是决定你是否过线的关键。系统的把01-15年的完型填空的题拿出来做一做，总结真题中的搭配，熟词僻义以及难词生义的词语，这些搭配或者词语在历年真题中重复考查的几率很高，只要认知了大多数都能做对！完型填空得分原则：选项中极少见过的生僻字几乎不可能是正确答案，往往很多能够同义替换等简单词是正确答案的几率更大；在平时做完型的时候，要多积累词汇搭配，比如be exposure to等固定搭配，而且完型填空答案的分布基本都是4*5，最后有几个选线不能选出可以按照这种方式选；第四阶段：模拟检测这个阶段主要用历年真题当模拟题做（如果感觉自己前面复习效果不错的同学，也可以找找模拟题做）。任务一：每三天下午（14：-17：00）定时做英语一（2016-2020）的真题，包括涂答题卡，做完之后标记出真题中不认识的单词，阅读错题原因，翻译中的词组以及作文框架任务二：不做真题的第二天，英语复习时间控制在2个半小时，两天写一篇大作文，每天背真题中不熟悉的单词和词组以及作文范文中的词组；任务三：不做真题的第三天，英语复习控制在2个小时内，两天写一篇小作文，每天做真题中2-3个长难句练习以及真题中不熟悉的单词！查漏补缺

Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1A group of labour MPs, among them Yvette Cooper, are bringing in the new year with a call to institute a UK "town of culture" award. The proposal is that it should sit alongside the existing city of culture title, which was held by Hull in 2017 and has been awarded to Coventry for Zozl. Cooper and her colleagues argue that the success of the crown for Hull, where it brought in220m of investment and an avalache of arts, out not to be confined to cities.Britain' town, it is true are not prevented from applying, but they generally lack the resources to put together a bit to beat their bigger competitions. A town of culture award could, it is argued, become an annual event, attracting funding and creating jobs.Some might see the proposal as a boo by prize for the fact that Britain is no longer be able to apply for the much more prestigious title of European capital of culture, a sought-after award bagged by Glasgow in 1990 and Livorpool in 2008. "A cynic might speculate that the UK is on the verge of disappearing into an endless fever of self-celebration in its desperation to reinvent itself for the post-Brexit world: after town of culture, who knows that will follow-village of culture? Suburb of culture? Hamlet of culture?It is also wise to recall that such titles are not a cure-all. A badly run "year of culture"washes in and out of a place like the tide, bringing prominence for a spell but leaving no lasting benefits to the community. The really successful holders of such titles are those that do a great deal more than fill hotel bedrooms and bring in high-profile arts events and good press for a year. They transform the aspirations of the people who live there; they nudge the self-image of the city into a bolder and more optimistic light.It is hard to get right, and requires a remarkable degree of vision, as well as cooperation between city authorities, the private sector, community groups and cultural organisations. But it can be done: Glasgow's year as European capital of culture can certainly be seen as one of complex series of factors that have turned the city into the power of art, music and theatre that it remains today.A "town of culture" could be not just about the arts but about honouring a town's peculiarities-helping sustain its high street, supporting local facilities and above all celebrating its people and turn it into action.21. Cooper and her colleagues argue that a "town of culture" award could [A] consolidate the town-city ties in Britain.[B] promote cooperation among Britain's towns.[C] increase the economic strength of Britain's towns.[D] focus Britain's limited resources on cultural events.22. According to Paragraph 2, the proposal might be regarded by some as [A] a sensible compromise.[B] a self-deceiving attempt.[C] an eye-cotching bonus.[D] an inaccessible target.23. The author suggests that a title holder is successful only if it [A] endeavours to maintain its image.[B] meets the aspirations of its people.[C] brings its local arts to prominence.[D] commits to its long-term growth.24. Glasgow is mentioned in Paragraph 3 to present [A] a contrasting case.[B] a supporting example.[C]a background story.[D] a related topic.25. What is the author's attitude towards the proposal?[A] Skeptical[B] Objective[C] Favourable[D] Critical答案（21-25）21.D focus Britain's limited resources on cultural events.22.B a self-deceiving attempt.23.D commits to its long-term growth.24.B a supporting example.25.C Favourable.Text2Scientific publishing has long been a licence to print money, Scientists need journals in which to publish their research, so they will supply the articles without monetary reward. Other scientists perform the specialised work of peer review also for free, because it is a central element in the acquisition of status and the proction of scientific knowledge.With the content of papers secured for free, the publisher needs only find a market for its journal. Until this century, university libraries were not very price sensitive. Scientific publishers routinely report profit margins approaching 40% on their operations, at a time when the rest of the publishing instry is in an existential crisis.The Dutch giant Elsevier, which claims to publish 25% of the scientific papers proced in the world, made profits of more than f 900m last year, while UK universities alone spent more than f 210m in 2016 to enable researchers to access their own publicly funded research;both figures seem to rise unstoppably despite increasingly desperate efforts to change them.The most drastic, and thoroughly illegal, reaction has been the emergence of Sci-Hub, a kind of global photocopier for scientific papers, set up in 2012, which now claims to offer access to every pay walled article published since 2015. The success of Sci-Hub, which relies on researchers passing on copies they have themselves legally accessed, shows the legal ecosystem has lost legitimacy among its users and must be transformed so that it works for all participants.In Britain the move towards open access publishing has been driven by funding bodies.In some ways it has been very successful. More than half of all British scientific research is now published under open access terms; either freely available from the moment of publication,or pay walled for a year or more so that the publishers can make a profit before being placed on general release.Yet the new system has not worked out any cheaper for the universities. Publishers have responded to the demand that they make their proct free to readers by charging their writers fees to cover the costs of preparing an article. These range from around500 to $5,000.A report last year pointed out that the costs both of subscriptions and of these "article preparation costs" had been steadily rising at a rate above inflation.In some ways the scientific publishing model resembles the economy of the social internet:labour is provided free in exchange for the hope of status, while huge profits are made by a few big firms who run the market places. In both cases, we need a rebalancing of power.26. Scientific publishing is seen as "a licence to print money" partly because [A] its funding has enjoyed a steady increase.[B] its marketing strategy has been successful.[C] its payment for peer review is reced.[D] its content acquisition costs nothing.!27. According to Paragraphs 2 and 3, scientific publishers Elsevier have [A] thrived mainly on university libraries.[B] gone through an existential crisis.[C] revived the publishing instry.[D] financed researchers generously.28. How does the author feel about the success of Sci-Hub? [A] Relieved.[B] Puzzled.[C] Concerned.[D] Encouraged.29. It can be learned from Paragraphs 5 and 6 that open access terms [A] allow publishers some room to make money.[B] render publishing much easier for scientists.[C] rece the cost of publication substantially.[D] free universities from financial burdens.30. Which of the following characterises the scientific publishing model?[A] Trial subscription is offered.[B] Labour triumphs over status.[C]Costs are well controlled.[D] The few feed on the many.答案（26-30）26.D its content acquisition costs nothing.27.A thrived mainly on university libraries.28.D Encouraged.29.A allow publishers some room to make money.30.D The few feed on the many.Text 3Progressives often support diversity mandates as a path to equality and a way to level the playing field. But all too often such policies are an insincere form of virtue-signaling that benefits only the most privileged and does little to help average people.A pair of bills sponsored by Massachusetts state Senator Jason Lewis and House Speaker Pro Tempore Patricia Haddad, to ensure "gender parity" on boards and commissions, provide a case in point.Haddad and Lewis are concerned that more than half the state-government board are lessthan40 percent female. In order to ensure that elite women have more such opportunities, they have proposed imposing government quotas. If the bills become law, state boards and commissions will be required to set aside 50 percent of board seats for women by 2022.The bills are similar to a measure recently adopted in Califomia, which last year became the first state to require gender quotas for private companies. In signing the measure, California Governor Jerry Brown admitted that the law, which expressly classifies people on the basis of sex, is probably unconstitutional.The US Supreme Court frowns on sex based classifications unless they are designed to address an "important" policy interest, Because the California law applies to all boards, even where there is no history of prior discrimination, courts are likely to rule that the law violates the constitutional guarantee of "equal protection".But are such government mandates even necessary? Female participation on corporate boards may not currently mirror the percentage of women in the general population, but so what?The number of women on corporate boards has been steadily increasing without government interference. According to a study by Catalyst, between 2010 and 2015 the share of women on the boards of global corporations increased by 54 percent.Requiring companies to make gender the primary qualification for board membership will inevitably lead to less experienced private sector boards. That is exactly what happened when Norway adopted a nationwide corporate gender quota.Writing in The New Republic, Alice Lee notes that increasing the number of opportunities for board membership without increasing the pool of qualified women to serve on such boards has led to a "golden skirt "phenomenon, where the same elite women scoop up multiple seats on a variety of boards.Next time somebody pushes corporate quotas as a way to promote gender equity,remember that such policies are largely self-serving measures that make their sponsors feelgood but do little to help average women.31.The author believes that the bills sponsored by Lewis and Haddad will [A] help little to rece gender bias.[B] pose a threat to the state government.[C] raise women's position in politics.[D] greatly broaden career options.32.

Digital services include everything from providing a platform for selling goods and services online to targeting advertising based on user data, and the tax applies to gross revenue from such services. Many French politicians and media outlets have referred to this as a"GAFA tax," meaning that it is designed to apply primarily to companies such as Google,Apple, Facebook and Amazon-in other words, multinational tech companies based in the United States.The digital services tax now awaits the signature of President Emmanuel Macron, who has expressed support for the measure, and it could go into effect within the next few weeks.But it has already sparked significant controversy, with the Unite Sates trade representative opening an investigation into whether the tax discriminates against American companies,which in turn could lead to trade sanctions against France.The French tax is not just a unilateral move by one country in need of revenue. Instead,the digital services tax is part of a much larger trend, with countries over the past few years proposing or putting in place an alphabet soup of new international tax provisions. These have included Britain's DPT (diverted profits tax).Australia's MAAL (multinational antiavoidance, law), and India's SEP (significant economic presence) test, to name but a few. At the same time, the European Union. Spain,Britain and several other countries have all seriously contemplated digital services taxes.These unilateral developments differ in their specifics, but they are all designed to tax multinationals on income and revenue that countries believe they should have a right to tax,even if international tax rules do not grant them that right. In other words, they all share a view that the international tax system has failed to keep up with the current economy.In response to these many unilateral measures, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) is currently working with 131 countries to reach aconsensus by the end of 2020 on an international solution. Both France and the United States are involved in the organization's work, but France's digital services tax and the American response raise questions about what the future holds for the international tax system.France's planned tax is a clear warning: Unless a broad consensus can be reached on reforming the international tax system, other nations are likely to follow suit, and American companies will face a cascade of different taxes from dozens of nations that will prove burdensome and costly.36.The French Senate has passed a bill to [A] regulate digital services platforms.[B] protect French companies interests.[C] impose a levy on tech multinationals.[D] curb the influence of advertising.37. It can be learned from Paragraph 2 that the digital services tax [A] may trigger countermeasures against France.[B] is apt to arouse criticism at home and abroad.[C] aims to ease international trade tensions.[D] will prompt the tech giants to quit France.38. The countries adopting the unilateral measures share the opinion that [A] redistribution of tech giants' revenue must be ensured.[B] the current international tax system needs upgrading.[C] tech multinationals' monopoly should be prevented.[D] all countries ought to enjoy equal taxing rights.39. It can be learned from Para 5 that the OECO's current work [A] is being resisted by US companies.[B] needs to be readjusted immediately.[C] is faced with uncertain prospects.[D] needs to in involve more countries.40. Which of the following might be the best title for this text?[A] France Is Confronted with Trade Sanctions[B] France leads the charge on Digital Tax[C] France Says "NO" to Tech Multinationals[D] France Demands a Role in the Digital Economy答案（36-40）36.C impose alevy on tech multinationals.37.A may trigger countermeasures against France.38.B the current international tax system needs upgrading39.C is faced with uncertain prospects.40.B France leads the charge on Digital TaxPart B Directions:In the following text, some sentences have been removed.

This mutual gaze is a major part of the attachment between mother and child. In althood, looking someone else in a pleasant way can be a complimentary sign of paying attention. It can catch someone's attention in a crowded room, "Eye contact and smile" can signal availability and confidence, a common-sense notion supported in studies by psychologist Monica Moore.42. Neuroscientist Bonnie Augeung found that the hormone oxytocin increased the amount of eye contact from men toward the interviewer ring a brief interview when the direction of their gaze was recorded. This was also found in high- functioning men with some autistic spectrum symptoms, who may tend to avoid eye contact. Specific brain regions that respond ring direct gaze are being explored by other researches, using advanced methods of brain scanning.43. With the use of eye-tracking technology, Julia Minson of the Harvard Kennedy School of Government concluded that eye contact can signal very different kinds of messages,depending on the situation. While eye contact may be a sign of connection or trust in friendly situations, it's more likely to be associated with dominance or intimidation in adversarial situations. "Whether you' re a politician or a parent, it might be helpful to keep in mind that trying to maintain eye contact may backfire if you' re trying to convince someone who has a different set of beliefs than you," said Minson.44. When we look at a face or a picture, our eyes pause on one spot at a time, often on the eyes or mouth. These pauses typically occur at about three per second, and the eyes then jump to another spot, until several important points in the image. are registered like a series of snapshots. How the whole image is then assembled and perceived is still a mystery although it is the subject of current research.45. In people who score high in a test of neuroticism, a personality dimension associated with self-consciousness and anxiety, eye contact triggered more activity associated with avoidance,according to the Finnish researcher Jari Hietanen and colleagues "Our findings indicate that people do not only feel different when they are the centre of attention but that their brain reactions also differ." A more direct finding is that people who scored high for negative emotions like anxiety looked at others for shorter periods of time and reported more comfortable feelings when others did not look directly at them.答案（41-45）41.

(10points)Following the explosion of creativity in Florence ring the 14h century known as the Renaissance, the modern world saw a departure from what it had once known. It turned from God and the authority of the Roman Catholic Church and instead favoured a more humanistic approach to being. Renaissance ideas had spread throughout Europe well into the 17h century,with the arts and sciences flourishing extraordinarily among those with a more logical disposition. (46) with the Church's teachings and ways of thinking eclipsed by the Renaissance,the gap between the Medieval and modern periods had been bridged leading to new and unexplored itellectual territories.During the Renaissance, the great minds of Nicolaus Copernicus, Johannes Kepler and Galileo Galilei demonstrated the power of scientific study and discovery. (47) Before each of their revelations many thinkers at the time had sustained more ancient ways of thinking.including the geo-centric view that the Earth was a the centre of our universe. Copernicus theorized in 1543 that all of the planets that we knew of revolved not around the Earth, but the Sun, a system that was later upheld by Galileo at his own expense. Offering up such a theory ring a time of high tension between scientific and religious minds was branded as heresy and any such heretics that continued to spread these lies were to be punished by imprisonment or even death.(48) Despite attempts by the Church to suppress. this new generation of logicians and rationalists, more explanations for how the universe functioned were being made at a rate that the people could no longer ignore.It was with these great revelations that a new kind of philosophy founded in reason was born.The Church's long- standing dogma was losing the great battle for truth to rationalists and scientists. This very fact embodied the new ways of thinking that swept through Europe ring most of 17h century. (49) As many took on the ty of trying to integrate reasoning and scientific philosophies into the world, the Renaissance was over and it was time for a new era-the Age of Reason.The 17h and I8h centuries were times of radical change and curiosity, Scientific method,rectionism and the questioning of Church ideals was to be encouraged, as were ideas of liberty, tolerance and progress. (50) Such actions to seek knowledge and to understand what information we already knew were captured by the Latin phrase' sapere aude' or dare to know',after Immanuel Kant used it in his essay" An Answer to the Question: What is Enlightenment?".It was the purpose and responsibility of great minds to go forth and seek out the truth, which they believed to be founded in knowledge.答案（46-50）46.随着教会的教义和思维方式在文艺复兴时期黯然失色，中世纪与现代之间的鸿沟得以弥合，从而出现了新的及尚未开发的知识领域。47.在每个真理揭示之前，当时的许多思想家都采用了更古老的思维方式，仍旧沿用以前的思维模式，其中包括认为地球是宇宙中心的地球中心说。48.尽管教会试图镇压这-代逻辑学家和理性主义者，但人们对宇宙如何运转的解释却越来越多，并且以-种不容忽视的速度在增加。49.当许多人承担起将理性科学的哲学融入世界的责任时，文艺复兴时代已经结束，并且开启了一个新的时代。50.此类寻求知识和了解已知信息的行为被拉丁语概括为：“sapere aude"即"敢于求知”作文Section ll WritingPart A51.
