Public perception of success in the U.S.might be totally misguided
While 92% of people believe others care most about fame and 26 ,fewer than 10% factor those qualities into their own success.This is according to the newly 27 study by Harvard Graduate School of Education professor Todd Smith.Smith says he was 28 by how past studies on success“assumed what people will care about.”In this study,his team “weat the 29 direction”by spending years carying out individual interviews and group surveys to see what people really talk about when they talk about success.
As a scientist,Smith 30 studied individuality for a living,and even he was surprised to find younger respondents cared more about having a 31 in life.Those between the ages of 18 and 34 prioritized it most,and that prioritization dropped off as respondents'ages went up.Perhaps this is because older people hadfewer options when theywere starting their careers,at a time when values focused more on stable incomes than 32 personal missions.
Other trends included an emphasis on the importance of parenting.Being a parent 33 very high across the priorities of all study participants.Ultimately,Smith hopes institutions will take note of these insights 34 .
Higher education institutions tend to focus on preparingstudents for high-paying jobs For such institutions,fom universities to workplaces,to better 35 people in the U.S.,they'll need to understand “what the American public highly prioritizes,”Smith says.

答案解析
26.E)【語義判斷】空格所在句意為：盡管有92%的人認為別人最在乎名聲和______,但只有不到10%的人把這些品質(zhì)考慮到自己的成功中。and一般連接意思相近的詞或短語，備選項中，跟fame“名聲”意思相近的只有fortune“巨款”。fame and fortune=being rich and famous,意為“名和利”, 因此答案為E)fortune.factor..into 意為“把……考慮在內(nèi)”。
27.M)【語義判斷】空格所在句意為：這是根據(jù)哈佛大學教育研究生院的教授托德·史密斯最新______研究得出的結(jié)論。由句意可知，本空應填入含有“公布，發(fā)表”意義的詞，由此確定答案為M)released。在這里 released是動詞的過去分詞作定語，修飾 study。備選的其他形容詞和動詞均沒有此含義，因此排除。
28.D)【語義判斷】空格所在句意為：史密斯說，過去關(guān)于成功的研究“假設(shè)人們會關(guān)心什么”,這讓他______。由句意可知，本空應填入表達某種情緒的詞，由此確定答案為D)bothered。備選的其他形容詞和動詞-ed形式均不能表達情緒，因此排除。
29.I)【語義判斷】空格所在句意為：在這項研究中，他的團隊“走向______方向”,花了數(shù)年時間進行個人訪談和群體調(diào)查，就為了弄明白人們在談?wù)摮晒r真正談?wù)摰氖鞘裁础Ｓ纱丝芍?，史密斯的團隊與以前研究成功的團隊采取了截然不同的方式，他們沒有對成功的定義做出假設(shè)，因此本空應填入含有“不同的，相反的”意義的形容詞，由此確定答案為I)opposite.備選的其他形容詞均沒有此含義，因此排除。
30.H)【語義判斷】空格所在句意為：作為一名科學家，史密斯______以研究個性為生。將備選副詞分別代入句中，只有l(wèi)iterally“確實”符合句意，因此 答案為H) 。B)accordingly 、N)similarly 和O)wrong 代入句中均不符合句意，故排除。
31.K)【語義判斷】空格所在句意為：甚至他驚訝地發(fā)現(xiàn)，年輕的受訪者更關(guān)心生活要有______,將備選名詞代入句中，只有purpose“目的”使句意通順，故答案為K)purpose。
32. F)【語義判斷】空格所在句意為：這可能是因為年長的人在剛開始職業(yè)生涯時選擇較少，當時的價值觀更關(guān)注穩(wěn)定的收入，而不是______個人使命。將備選詞分別代入句中，只有fulfilling personal missions“實現(xiàn)個人使命”符合句意，由此確定答案為F) 。C)acquiring“獲得；得到”不符合句意， 故排除。

34.B)【語義判斷】空格所在句意為：最終，史密斯希望各類機構(gòu)能______注意到這些見解。上文提到了不同年齡階段有各自的優(yōu)先事項，也有共通的。由此可知，史密斯希望各機構(gòu)能注意到對應不同人群的優(yōu)先事項，因此本空應填入含有“對應地，相應地”意義的副詞，由此確定答案為B)accordingly。備選的其他副詞均沒有此含義，因此排除。
35.A)【語義判斷】空格所在句意為：對于這些機構(gòu)來說，無論是大學還是職場，為了更好地______美國人，他們需要了解“美國公眾高度重視的是什么”。本段第一句提到，高校傾向于把重點放在讓學生為高薪工作做準備上，而高薪并非年輕人的優(yōu)先考慮事項，所以各類機構(gòu)要了解美國公眾究竟優(yōu)先考慮什么,從而更好地適應這些人的需求。因此本空應填入含有“適應，滿足”意義的動詞，由此確定答案為A)accommodate 。備選的其他動 詞原形沒有此含義，因此排除。
Section B
Directions: In this section,you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached toit. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs.Identify the paragraph from which the information isderived.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.
How a rabbit study and an ex-studentboost myhopes for a future of 'loveand dignity'
A)At whatever grade levelteachers find themselves,from kindergarten to the final class at medical or law school,few moments stir the emotions as deeply as when former
students reappear years and often decades later with an update on where their journey has taken them and what resiliencies(韌性)have been the pavement on which they've traveled.
B)So it was when a recent letter came from Kelli Harding,a student 21 years ago in my Peace Studies summer course in Washington.The weekly tuition-freeclass,in a roomy space that Ralph Nader and his Public Citizen nonprofit group provided,was discussion-based and required no useless homework or exams.Just comein and figure out how to increase peace and decreaseviolence.And do it today,tomorrow is too late. The course attracted mostlycongressional interns(實習生),with a fewexceptions like Kelli who was in Washington as an AmeriCorps volunteer.
C)Her year-long service included comforting AIDs patients at a free health clinic and delivering meals to the homebound.It was aworld apart from herundergraduate daysat the University of California-Berkeley majoring in political science.The Washington experience,which Kelli would later call “transformative”,was the fuel that carried her into medicine to earn a master's degree in public health from Columbia University and amedical degree from the University of Rochester,and almost two decades of practice as an emergency-room psychiatrist(精神科醫(yī)生)at New York-Presbyterian Hospital and a clinical professor of psychiatry at Columbia University Irving Medical Center.
D)Kelli's letter,a literate update on both her personal and professional life,touched my heart,and especially so when saying that two decades later she still has the course text, “Solutions to Violence,”and that“it remainsone of my favorite possessions.”She lives in Lower Manhattan with her husband,Padraic,whom she met on a flight to London and their threeboys.
E)If Kelli stands out,it's because she is also a gifted writer.Last month,Atria Books published her book The Rabbit Efiect:Live Longer,Happier,and Healthier with the Groundbreaking Science of Kindness.
F)With a blending offree-flowing confessional prose and scholarly research found in 461 notes,Kelli met my expectations that her ideas and ideals would be sound and singular.“Despite our scientifc progress,"she writes,“Americans are remarkably unhealthy.In 2016,the United States ranked forty-third in the world for life expectancy...It is also by far the world's most expensive place to get sick.”
G)Enter the rabbits-not those running around in our woodlands butones serving in two month-long medical experiments to test the effects of eating a high-fat diet and the connections between cholesterol and heart disease.With similar diets,the expectations were that all the rabbits would have similar cloggings of their arteries(動脈堵塞) .Yet one group had 60% fewerof them.
H)The reason?Instead of receiving the standard care given to lab animals,the 60% group was watched over by a newcomer to the lab who,Kelli writes,"handled the animals differently.When she fed her rabbits she talked to them and petted them.She didn't just pass out food,she gave them love...The studies indicate something is missing in the traditional biomedical model.Itwasn't diet or genetics that made a difference in which rabbits got sick and which stayed healthy.It was kindness.”
I)Amid the political noise about Obamacare,Medicare,Medicaid,health insurance and thieving pharmacentical(醫(yī)藥的)companies,Kelli Harding stands apart from the crowd calling for quick fixes,the simpler the better.She has walked too many miles in the halls of hospitals visiting too many far-gone patients and seeing toomany medical mistakes to go along with conventional thinking.
J)“The rabbiteffect,"she explains,means that“when it comes to our health,we'vebeen missing some crucial pieces:hidden factors behind what really makes us healthy. Factors like love,friendship,and dignity.The designsof our neighborhoods,schools and workplaces.There's a social dimension to health that we've completely overlooked in our efforts to find the best and most cutting-edge medical care...Ultimately,what affects our health in the most meaningful ways hasmore to do with how we treat one another,how we live,and how we think about what it means to be human than with anything that happens in the doctor's office."
K)In more than a few passages,she relates the stories of men and women who came up against assembly-line medicine where patients were treated mostly as pieces of flesh. “Clinically,”she writes,“it's common to see two patients with the same condition,such as recovering from a heart attack,have two very different courses based on seemingly irrelevant factors,such as their family relationships or their educational levels.In my practice,the sickest people I see often share similar backgrounds:loneliness,abuse, poverty,ordiscrimination.For them,the medicalmodel isn't enough.It's like fixing up an airplane engine and ignoing that the pilot is on histhird drink at the bar and a massive stormis overhead...To properly care for patients,we also need to care about the lives of the people getting the care.”
L)Kelli wastes notime taking potshots at(隨意批評)the medical establishment and its body-centered biomedicine methods.Instead,she remains positive,holding up for praise one of her medical school professors,George Engel,“who always noticed not just a patient's physical condition but little details about her life,such as ifshe had family pictures up in her hospital room or flowers delivered.He was the kind of trusted doctor you'd feel relieved to seeand welcome into the room with a sick family member.He'd sit down to talk with the patient not just about medical problems,but about her life and priorities.Hebuilt a large consultation service to address the holistic(整體的)needs of hospitalized patients,including psychological and social factors.”
M)It's a guess howmanyGeorge Engels in their whitejackets are at work these days and another speculation on the number of Kelli Hardings the nation is blessed with.May the totals be large and getting larger.
36.Kelli Harding also distinguishes herself by her literary talent.
37.Kelli Harding doesn't think America's medical model is sufficient for patients who need help most.
38.Kelli Harding differs from those seeking quick and simple solutions to America's medical problems.
39.Kelli Harding wasa participant in a summer course the author taught.
40.According to Kelli Harding,scientific advances have not made Americans healthier,nor prolonged their life.
41.The author was deeply moved by what Kelli Harding wrote about her current life.
42.George Engel,in treating his patients,not onlylooks intotheir symptomsbut also into things like the emotional support they receive.
43.According to Kelli Harding,rabbits'health had more to do with humans'kindness to themthan their diet or genetcs.
44.What Kelli Harding went through in Washington changed her life.
45.A social aspect to health has not been taken into account in trying to provide the best medical care.

Directions: There are 2 passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions orwnfinished statements.For each of them there are fourchoices marked A),B),C)and D). Youshould decide on the bestchoice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
Passage One
Questions 46 to 50 arebased on the following passage.
Academic dishonesty is nothing new.As long as there have been homework assignments and tests,there have been cheaters.The way that cheating looks has changed over time,though,particularly now that technology has made it easier than ever.Astudy by theJosephson Institute of Ethics interviewed 23,000 high school students and asked them a variety of questions about academic ethics.Of the teens surveyed,51 percent said that they had knowinglycheatedat some point on an exam but that they did not feel uneasy about the behaviour.A Common Sense Media survey found that 35 percent of studentshad cheated via smartphone,though the parents surveyed in that particular study did not believe their kids had ever cheated.In many cases,students didnot realizethat strategies like looking up answers ona smartphone were actually cheating at all.
In today's classrooms,students who cheat are rarely caught.There are no formulas written on the insides of handsor students looking across the aisle,or whispering answers to their classmates.Today's students use smartphones,tablets or even in-class computers to aid their cheating attempts and leave no trace of their crimes.Since cheating through technology is not listed specifically as being against the rules in many school policies, students do not view the actions unethical.
The technology is being adopted so quicklythat school districts cannot adequately keep up with cheating policies,oreven awareness campaigns that alert students to the problem with using technology to find answers in a certain way.From a young age, students learn that answers exist conveniently at their fingertips through search engines and expert websites.
Schools must develop anti-cheating policies that include technology andthese policies must be updated consistently.Teachers must stay on guard when it comes to what their students are doing in classrooms and how technology could be playing a negative role in the learning process.Parents must also talk to their kids about the appropriate ways to find academic answers and alert them to unethical behaviours that may seem innocent in their own eyes

Passage Two
Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.
Remote work is about more than just working from home—it means working differently.Organizations should reconsider the appropriateness of their performance evaluation procedures in light of the shift to remote work.This requires a fundamental rethinking of what organizations expect from employees and what companies would look for in a model employee in a remote work context.
It is likely that the“first to arrive and last to leave”mentality is no longerrelevant,but should be replaced by a regard for the quality of an employee's contribution to the organization.This means thatwork should be measured in terms of the quality of the work, not just the quality of the process.As remote work is largely unobservable to supervisors,employers need to think about how they can objectively measure the quality of work in a way that is consistent for employees ofsimilar rank.
Focusing on output alone can have the unintended consequences.Employers should think insteadabout the values and soft skills they want to emphasize in a remote work environment.Qualities like flexibility and the ability to work under minimal supervision might become critical.Much hasbeen written about the importance of timely feedback.In the context of a global pandemic(大流行病),firms may want to provide additional support to employees by providing more frequent communication.This allows managers to both keep an eye on struggling employees and provide ongoing feedback on how employees are adapting to their new work environment.
Compensation also needs to be revisited.The purpose of performance evaluation is ultimately to determine how to reward employees for their work.This means that pay structures need to adapt to the reality ofworking from home.However,organizations also need to be honest with employees about the financial impact of COVID-19.
For organizations that have struggled to keep the lights on due to the pandemic,this might mean thinking of non-financial ways to reward employees,like unpaid time off or flexible work schedules.Employers can also consider how to bundle different types of compensation tohelp employees copewith their uniquesituations.
51.What does the author say companies should do in thecontext of remotework?
A)Reform performance evaluation
B)Rethink the organizational fundamentals
C)Reexamine its effects on employees'behaviors.
D)Reflect on its differences fromworking in the office.
52.What should be prioritized in assessing employees'remote work?
A)The quantity of their output.
B)The length of their work time.
C)The quality of their contribution
D)The flexibility of their work schedules.
53.What quality in the employees would be of great importance in a remote work context?
A)The ability to produce quality work.
B)The ability tomaximize work efficiency.
C)Theability to finish tasks in a timely manner.
D)The ability to work with the least supervision.
54.Why is it important for fims to provide timely feedback during thepandemic?
A)Toevaluate their employees of similar rank in a consistent way.
B)To keep a watchful eye on those employees who perform poorly.
C)To help employees in need adapt to the new work environment.
D)Tomaintain comnections with their employees away from office.
55.What is the author's suggestion to employers who experience the financial impact of the pandemic?
A)Urging their employees to adapt to the new situation.
B)Rewarding theiremployees in unconventionalways.
C)Identifying employees who make little contribution.
D)Allowing their employees to look for part-time jobs.
答案解析
51.【定位】由題干中的companies should do in the context ofremote work定位到首段第二句。
A)【精析】細節(jié)辨認題。定位句指出，鑒于向遠程工作方式轉(zhuǎn)變的趨勢，各公司應重新思考其績效評估程序是否合適。由此可見，作者認為在遠程工作中公司應改革績效評估，故答案為A)。
52.【定位】由題干中的prioritized in assesing employees'remote work定位到第二段第一句。
C)【精析】細節(jié)辨認題。定位句提到，“早到晚走”的心態(tài)很可能不再適用了，取而代之的是關(guān)注員工對公司貢獻的質(zhì)量。由此可知，在評估員工遠程工作時應優(yōu)先考慮員工貢獻的質(zhì)量，故答案為C)。
53.【定位】由題干中的quality in theemployees和importance定位到第三段第二、三句。
D)【精析】細節(jié)辨認題。定位句指出，雇主應該轉(zhuǎn)而思考自己在遠程工作環(huán)境中想強調(diào)的價值觀和軟技能。靈活處理問題以及在最少的監(jiān)督下工作的能力等品質(zhì)可能變得至關(guān)重要。由此可見，在遠程工作環(huán)境中，雇員在最少的監(jiān)督下工作的能力至關(guān)重要，故答案為D)。D)中的the least supervision與定位句中的minimal supervision為同義轉(zhuǎn)換。
54.【定位】由題干中的provide timelyfeedback定位到第四段。
C)【精析】推理判斷題。第四段第一句提到，很多文章都論述了及時反饋的重要性，第四段第三句提到這樣主管既能關(guān)注到遇到問題的員工，又能對員工適應新工作環(huán)境的情況提供持續(xù)的反饋。由此可知，及時提供反饋可以幫助有需要的員工適應新的工作環(huán)境，故答案為C)。
55.【定位】由題干中的author's suggestion和financial impact of the pandemic定位到第六段。
B)【精析】細節(jié)辨認題。第六段指出，對于那些因新冠疫情而難以維系的公司來說，這可能意味著要考慮用非財務(wù)的福利來獎勵員工，如無薪休假或靈活的工作時間。雇主還可以考慮如何組合不同類型的補償，幫助員工應對自己的特殊情況。由此可見，作者建議財務(wù)受到大流行病影響的雇主以非傳統(tǒng)的方式獎勵員工。B)中的unconventional ways對應定位段中的non financial ways,故答案為B)。
