Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)
Section A
Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list
of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices.
Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2
with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.
Questions 26 to 35 are based on the following passage.
In what’s probably the craziest headline I’ve ever written, I’ve reported that 26 in livestock protection are happening
with scientists painting eyes on the butts of cows. The experiment is based upon the idea that farmers who’re protecting
their herd from lions would shoot and kill lions in an effort to protect their livestock. While this makes a lot of sense, it
results in many lion deaths that 27 would have been unnecessary. Researchers in Australia have been 28 and testing a
method of trickery to make lions think they are being watched by the painted eyes on cow butts.
This idea is based on the principle that lions and other 29 are far less likely to attack when they feel they are being
watched. As conservation areas become smaller, lions are increasingly coming into contact with human populations, which
are expanding to the 30 of these protected areas.
Efforts like painting eyes on cow butts may seem crazy at first, but they could make actual headway in the fight for
conservation. “If the method works, it could provide farmers in Botswana—and 31 —with a low-cost, sustainable tool to
protect their livestock, and a way to keep lions safe from being killed.”
Lions are 32 ambush（埋伏）hunters, so when they feel their prey has 33 them, they usually give up on the hunt.
Researchers are 34 testing their idea on a select herd of cattle. They have painted half of the cows with eyes and left the
other half as normal. Through satellite tracking of both the herd and the lions in the area, they will be able to 35 if their
psychological trickery will work to help keep farmers from shooting lions.
A)advances I）otherwise
B)boundaries J)predators
C)challenging K) primarily
D)currently L）retorted
E)determine M）spotted
F)devising N) testimonies
G)elsewhere O）wrestle
H)nevertheless
Section B
Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains
information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a
paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding
letter on Answer Sheet 2.
Resilience Is About How You Recharge, Not How You Endure
[A] As constant travelers and parents of a 2-year-old, we sometimes fantasize about how much work we can do when
one of us gets on a plane, undistracted by phones, friends, or movies. We race to get all our ground work done: packing,
going through security, doing a last-minute work call, calling each other, then boarding the plane. Then, when we try to have
that amazing work session in flight, we get nothing done. Even worse, after refreshing our email or reading the same studies
over and over, we are too exhausted when we land to soldier on with（继续处理）the emails that have inevitably still piled
up.
[B] Why should flying deplete us? We’re just sitting there doing nothing. Why can’t we be tougher, more resilient（有
复原力的）and determined in our work so we can accomplish all of the goals we set for ourselves? Based on our current
research, we have come to realize that the problem is not our hectic schedule or the plane travel itself; the problem comes
from a misconception of what it means to be resilient, and the resulting impact of overworking.
[C] We often take a militaristic, “tough” approach to resilience and determination like a Marine pulling himself through
the mud, a boxer going one more round, or a football player picking himself up off the ground for one more play. We
believe that the longer we tough it out, the tougher we are, and therefore the more successful we will be. However, this
entire conception is scientifically inaccurate.
[D] The very lack of a recovery period is dramatically holding back our collective ability to be resilient and successful.
Research has found that there is a direct correlation between lack of recovery and increased incidence of health and safety
problems. And lack of recovery—whether by disrupting sleep with thoughts of work or having continuous cognitive arousal
by watching our phones—is costing our companies $62 billion a year in lost productivity.
[E] And just because work stops, it doesn’t mean we are recovering. We “stop” work sometimes at 5 pm, but then we
spend the night wrestling with solutions to work problems, talking about our work over dinner, and falling asleep thinking
about how much work we’ll do tomorrow. In a study just released, researchers from Norway found that 7.8% of Norwegians
have become workaholics（工作狂）. The scientists cite a definition of “workaholism” as “being overly concerned about
work, driven by an uncontrollable work motivation, and investing so much time and effort in work that it impairs other
important life areas.”
[F] We believe that the number of people who fit that definition includes the majority of American workers, which
prompted us to begin a study of workaholism in the U.S.. Our study will use a large corporate dataset from a major medical
company to examine how technology extends our working hours and thus interferes with necessary cognitive recovery,
resulting in huge health care costs and turnover costs for employers.
[G] The misconception of resilience is often bred from an early age. Parents trying to teach their children resilience
might celebrate a high school student staying up until 3 am to finish a science fair project. What a distortion of resilience! A
resilient child is a well-rested one. When an exhausted student goes to school, he risks hurting everyone on the road with his
