Ig Nobel Prize

Having a meal is an easy and delightful process for most people. However, for a woodpecker (啄木鸟), it's not that simple. To get dinner, a woodpecker has to hit its head against a tree numerous times per day. Yet, amazingly, it never suffers any ill effects like brain damage. According to research, it is the woodpecker's thick head bones that protect it from the impact of the blows. For explaining that, Ivan Schwab won an Ig Nobel Prize.

4/9

B．They were doing physical exercise. D．They were searching for their campsite.

Ig Nobel Prizes are organized by The Annals of Improbable Research, an American magazine that celebrates the funny side of science. Each year, ten winners are awarded prizes in honor of their \people laugh, and then make them think\but it usually grabs people's attention indeed. And no matter how ridiculous the research sounds, people can find it inspiring and amusing.

Brian Wansink's research might interest you. He took home an Ig Nobel Prize for looking into the influence of visual factors on people's appetites. He used specially bowls that refilled with soup while people were eating. Since these people had no idea this was happening, they just kept eating from these \didn't feel full because their bowls were not empty yet. People in this experiment ate 73 percent more soup than normal. Owing to these results, Wansink concluded that it's not people's stomachs that decide when they have eaten enough, but their eyes.

Ig Nobel Prizes also give attention to science and technology that is a part of our daily lives. Take the karaoke machine for example. Its inventor Daisuke Inoue was employed at a nightclub, playing the piano for the customers who wanted to sing. He wasn't skillful enough to play all the songs properly. To clear up the problem, he created the karaoke machine. To Inoue's surprise, the machine caused considerable changes in entertainment worldwide. The Ig Nobel Prize was awarded to Inoue not only because his invention was entertaining but also because it broupht about \

These research results of Ig Nobel Prizes may not be as great as Edison's light bulb or Newton's laws of motion. However, they do show people's willingness to take action and to try new ways to solve problems. According to Marc Abrahams, a founder of the Ig Nobel Prizes, \you win one, it means that you have done something. \

D Sharenting

It's the holiday season, the time when we connect with family and friends. Social media sites like Twitter and

5/9

Facebook are full of festive pictures, featuring parents' aching and sharing those special family moments, their child's wish list, and maybe even a cute video of their child dancing to \(尿片) and Santa hat. Swelling with pride, parents can't wait to get approval with a \yet a personalized message on their treasured post.

Adults should be able to post what they want online. However, when exposing family moments online, are they sharing too much information? Do parents have the right to share those cute now, but embarrassing later moments about kids? Have children willingly given their agreement to sharing their cute but funny video online?

A recent study found that 75% of parents turn to social media for parenting-related information and social support. There is even a term used to describe the overuse of sharing too much information about kids on social media: \is that a typical parent has about 150 Facebook friends and only a third of them are actual friends. So, that brings up good questions - Who are we really sharing our information with and why? Who knows when and where that photo could resurface in the future?

While there's no reliable information on how young children feel about things posted online, we do have information about how teens feel. According to a report by the Family Online Safety Institute, 76% of teens are concerned about their privacy. Many teens constantly search for new apps that allow anonymity. When names are required, they use screen names that don't reveal real information. If our teens are doing a better job of protecting themselves online, shouldn't parents take the lead and do the same? Plus, with more and more college admission representatives and potential employers surfing the internet for potential candidates, we'd hate for one of our posts to change an important decision. Think about it ... online reputations are now becoming inseparable with real life ones.

Of course, we can secure our privacy settings, only allowing our friends to view pictures, posts and videos, but that doesn't stop others from uploading our pictures. Adults need to be cautious of sharing information online, especially information about children.

So, this holiday season, enjoy family time and share those special memories with family and friends. Before clicking the app to upload photos or videos, stop and think twice. 47．Which of the following behaviors is \

A．A girl attends a live performance online. B．A father tells his son's story to his colleagues. C．A mother posts her baby's pictures on Facebook. D．A boy invites his friends to his birthday party at home. 48．What does the underlined word \

A．One's real name.

B．Using strange names. D．Being unknown by name. C．Neutral.

D．Unconcerned.

C．Unchangeable names.

49．What's the author's attitude toward \

A．Sympathetic. A．To state an argument. B．To support an opinion. C．To compare different ideas. D．To question a point of view.

第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In all our lives we must make choices. You make choices from the time you get out of bed in the morning until you go to sleep at night. What time to get up? What to wear? What to eat? You also make more significant choices

6/9

B．Negative.

50．What is the main purpose of the passage?

when you graduate from high school. 51 College? Technical training?

No matter the size of the decision, the common thread in all of them is that they involve an opportunity cost. Opportunity cost is your next best alternative - your second choice. For example, it's a Saturday night, and you are trying to decide between going to the movies, hanging out at a friend's house or going to the football game. 52 What is your second choice? If it is the football game, then that is your opportunity cost.

Opportunity cost is important. When you make a certain choice, it forces you to think more about all of the abandoned choices. By recognizing opportunity cost, you can decide whether your decision is worth it.

53 As a high school senior, you face several options, including going to college, going to technical school, or going to the work force. If you choose college, the opportunity cost is losing what could have been purchased or saved with the money spent on tuition (学费), housing, books, etc. for four years. 54 You would also lose four years, worth of income and experience that you could have earned if you had gone straight to work.

However, it is still the case that college graduates earn more than high school graduates do. And the unemployment rate among college graduates is less than that of high school graduates. 55 But, like all decisions, it is one that should be arrived at only after looking at the cost-including the opportunity cost - and considering the follow-up question: is it worth it?

A．Will you go straight to work?

B．What causes opportunity cost? C．But that's not the end of the costs. D．Suppose you decide to go to the movies. E．If you give up college, what do you lose? F．A perfect example is the decision to go to college G．For many students, going on to college is a wise decision.

I am very glad to know that you are interested in Teachers' Day in China. We celebrate Teachers' Day every September 10th.

Some students write Thank-you cards to our teachers; others would like to send them beautiful flowers. Sometimes we prepare performances or give them hand-made gifts. In our school, we also have a tradition of serving tea to each teacher in the morning.

I think Teachers' Day is a meaningful celebration. It gives us the chance to show our respect and love to our teachers. What's more, respecting teachers is also a tradition for us Chinese.

Do you have a similar celebration for teachers? Looking forward to hearing from you soon ！ Yours, Li Hua

四、One possible version:

Last month, we went to the exhibition displaying China's outstanding achievements over the past five years. As soon as we arrived, a guide gave us an introduction to the exhibition. While listening, we made some notes carefully. We fell excited and couldn't wait to start the visit. Later, we looked around in the exhibition hall. We were all inspired by the various exhibits, including the models of the high-speed train. We took a lot of photos and were proud of the achievements of our country.

The next day, we had a discussion at school about how to present what we had seen. We finally decided on a class meeting. Immediately we devoted ourselves to preparing the presentations.

At the class meeting, we delivered speeches in turn, sharing the most impressive parts of the exhibition and expressing the confidence in the future of our country.

Both the exhibition and the class meeting are memorable experiences, which will encourage us forever.
