points) The idea that some groups of people maybe more intelligent than others is one of those hypotheses that dare not speak its name.But Gregory Cochran is to say it anyway.He is that bird, a scientist who works independently any institution.He helped popularize the idea that some diseases not thought to have a bacterial cause were actually infections, which aroused much controversy when it wasfirst suggested.he, however, might tremble at the of what he isabout to do.Together with another two scientists, he ispublishing a paper which not only that one group of humanity is more intelligent than the others, bute_plains the process that has brought this about.The group in are a particular people originated from central Europe.The process is natural selection.This group generally do well in IQ test, 12-15points above the value of 100, and have contributed to the intellectual and cultural life of the West, as theof their elites, including several world-renowned scientists, .They also suffer more often than most people from a number of nasty geic diseases, such as breast cancer.These facts, , have previously been thought unrelated.The former has been to social effects, such as a strong tradition of education.The latter was seen as a (an) of geic isolation.Dr.Cochran suggests that the intelligence and diseasesare intimately .His argument is that the unusual history of these people has them to unique evolutionary pressures that have resulted in this state of affairs.1.[A] selected [B] prepared [C] obliged [D] pleased 2.[A] unique [B] particular

Section II Reading prehension Part A Directions: Read the following four te_ts.Answer the questions below each te_t by choosing A, B, C or D.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(40 points) Te_t 1 While still catching-up to men in some spheres of modern life, women appear to be way ahead in at least one undesirable category.“Women are particularly susceptible to developing depression and an_iety disorders in response to stress pared to men,” according to Dr.Yehuda, chief psychiatrist at New York’s Veteran’s Administration Hospital.Studies of both animals and humans have shown thatse_ hormones somehow affect the stress response, causingfemales under stress to produce more of the trigger chemicals than do males under the same conditions.In several of the studies, when stressed-out female rats had their ovaries (the female reproductive organs) removed, their chemical responses became equal to thoseof the males.Adding to a woman’s increased dose of stress chemicals, are her increased “opportunities” for stress.“It’s not necessarily that women don’t cope as well.It’s just that they have so much more to cope with,” says Dr.Yehuda.“Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than men’s,” she observes, “it’s just that they’re dealing with so many more t hings that they bee worn out from it more visibly and sooner.” Dr.Yehuda notes another difference between the se_es.“I think that the kinds of things that women aree_posed to tend to be in more of a chronic or repeated nature.Men go to war and are e_posed to bat stress.Men are e_posed to more acts of random physical violence.The kinds of interpersonal violence that women aree_posed to tend to be in domestic situations, by, unfortunately, parents or other family members, and they tend not to be one-shot deals.The wear-and-tear that es from these longer relationships can be quite devastating.” Adeline Alvarez married at 18 and gave birth to a son, but was determined to finish college.“I struggled a lot to get the college degree.I was living in so much frustration that that was my escape, to go to school, and get ahead and do better.” Later, her marriage ended and she became a single mother.“It’s the hardest thing to take care of a teenager, have a job, pay the rent, pay the car payment, and pay the debt.I lived from paycheck to paycheck.” Not everyonee_periences the kinds of severe chronic stresses Alvarez describes.But most women today are coping with a lot of obligations, with few breaks, and feeling the strain.Alvarez’s e_perience demonstrates the importance of finding ways to diffuse stress before it threatens your health and your ability to function.21.Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs? [A] Women are biologically more vulnerable to stress.[B] Women are still suffering much stress caused by men.[C] Women are more e_perienced than men in coping with stress.[D] Men and women show different inclinations when faced with stress.22.Dr.Yehuda’s research suggests that women [A] need e_tra doses of chemicals to handle stress.[B] have limited capacity for tolerating stress.[C] are more capable of avoiding stress.[D] are e_posed to more stress.23.According to Paragraph 4, the stress women confront tends to be [A] domestic and temporary.[B] irregular and violent.[C] durable and frequent.[D] trivial and random.24.The sentence “I lived from paycheck to paycheck.” (Line 6, Para.5) shows that [A] Alvarez cared about nothing but making money.[B] Alvarez’s salary barely covered her householde_penses.[C] Alvarez got paychecks from different jobs.[D] Alvarez paid practically everything by check.25.Which of the following would be the best title for the te_t? [A] Strain of Stress: No Way Out? [B] Responses to Stress: Gender Difference [C] Stress Analysis: What Chemicals Say [D] Gender Inequality: Women Under Stress Te_t 2 It used to be so straightforward.A team of researchers working together in the laboratory would submit the results of their research to a journal.A journal editor would then remove the author s’ names and affiliations from the paper and send it to their peers for review.Depending on the ments received, the editor would accept the paper for publication or decline it.Copyright rested with the journal publisher, and researchers seeking knowledge of the results would have to subscribe to the journal.No longer.The Inter – and pressure from funding agencies, who are questioning why mercial publishers are making money from government-funded research by restricting access to it – is making access to scientific results a reality.The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has just issued a report describing the far-reaching consequences of this.The report, by John Houghton of Victoria University in Australia and Graham Vickery of the OECD, makes heavyreading for publishers who have, so far, made handsome profits.But it goes further than that.It signals a change in what has, until now, been a key element of scientific endeavor.The value of knowledge and the return on the public investment in research depends, in part, upon wide distribution and ready access.It is big business.In America, the core scientific publishing market is estimated at between $7 billion and $11 billion.The International Association of Scientific, Technical and Medical Publishers says that there are more than 2,000 publishers worldwide specializing in these subjects.They publish more than 1.2 million articles each year in some 16,000 journals.This is now changing.According to the OECD report, some 75% of scholarly journals are now online.Entirely new business models are emerging; three main ones were identified by the report’s authors.There is the so-called big deal, where institutional subscribers pay for access to a collection of online journal titles through site-licensing agreements.There is open-access publishing, typically supported by asking the author (or his employer) to pay for the paper to be published.Finally, there are open-access archives, where organizations such as universities or international laboratories support institutional repositories.Other models e_ist that are hybrids of these three, such as delayed open-access, where journals allow only subscribers to read a paper for the first si_ months, before making it freely available to everyone who wishes to see it.All this could change the traditional form of the peer-review process, at least for the publication of papers.26.In the first paragraph, the author discusses [A] the background information of journal editing.[B] the publication routine of laboratory reports.[C] the relations of authors with journal publishers.[D] the traditional process of journal publication.27.Which of the following is true of the OECD report? [A] It criticizes government-funded research.[B] It introduces an effective means of publication.[C] It upsets profit-making journal publishers.[D] It benefits scientific research considerably.28.According to the te_t, online publication issignificant in that [A] it provides an easier access to scientific results.[B] it brings huge profits to scientific researchers.[C] it emphasizes the crucial role of scientific knowledge.[D] it facilitates public investment in scientific research.29.With the open-access publishing model, the author ofa paper is required to [A] cover the cost of its publication.[B] subscribe to the journal publishing it.[C] allow other online journals to use it freely.[D] plete the peer-review before submission.30.Which of the following best summarizes the te_t? [A] The Inter is posing a threat to publishers.[B] A new mode of publication is emerging.[C] Authors wele the new channel for publication.[D] Publication is rendered easier by online service.Te_t 3 In the early 1960s Wilt Chamberlain was one of only three players in the National Basketball Association (NBA) listed at over seven feet.If he had played last season, however, he would have been one of 42.The bodies playing major professional sports have changed dramatically over the years, and managers have been more than willing to adjust team uniforms to fit the growing numbers of bigger, longer frames.The trend in sports, though, may be obscuring an unrecognized reality: Americans have generally stopped growing.Though typically about two inches taller now than 140 y ears ago, today’s people – especially those born to families who have lived in the U.S.for many generations – apparently reached theirlimit in the early 1960s.And they aren’t likely to get any taller.“In the general population today, at this geic,envi ronmental level, we’ve pretty much gone as far as we can go,” says anthropologist William Cameron Chumlea of Wright State University.In the case of NBA players, their increase in height appears to result from the increasingly mon practice of recruiting players from all over the world.Growth, which rarely continues beyond the age of 20, demands calories and nutrients – notably, protein – to feed e_panding tissues.At the start of the 20th century, under-nutrition and childhood infections got in the way.But as diet and health improved, children and adolescents have, on average, increased in height by about an inch and a half every 20 years, a pattern known as the secular trend in height.Yet according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, average height –5′9″ for men, 5′4″ for women –hasn’t really changed since 1960.Geically speaking, there are advantages to avoiding substantial height.During childbirth, larger babies have more difficulty passing through the birth canal.Moreover, even though humans have been upright for millions of years, our feet and back continue to struggle with bipedal posture and cannot easily withstand repeated strain imposed by oversize limbs.“There are some real constraints that are set by the geic architecture of t he individual organism,” says anthropologist William Leonard of Northwestern University.Geic ma_imums can change, but don’t e_pect this to happen soon.Claire C.Gordon, senior anthropologist at the Army Research Center in Natick, Mass., ensures that 90 percent of the uniforms and workstations fit recruits without alteration.She says that, unlike those for basketball, thelength of military uniforms has not changed for some time.And if you need to predict human height in the near future to design a piece of equipment, Gordon says thatby and large, “you could use today’s data and feelfairly confident.” 31.Wilt Chamberlain is cited as an e_le to [A]illustrate the change of height of NBA players.[B] show the popularity of NBA players in the U.S..[C] pare different generations of NBA players.[D] assess the achievements of famous NBA players.32.Which of the following plays a key role in bodygrowth according to the te_t? [A] Geic modification.[B] Natural environment.[C] Living standards.[D] Daily e_ercise.33.On which of the following statements would the author most probably agree? [A] Non-Americans add to the average height of the nation.[B] Human height is conditioned by the upright posture.[C] Americans are the tallest on average in the world.[D] Larger babies tend to bee taller in adulthood.34.We learn from the last paragraph that in the near future [A] the garment industry will reconsider the uniform size.[B] the design of military uniforms will remain unchanged.[C] geic testing will be employed in selecting sportsmen.[D] the e_isting data of human height will still be applicable.35.The te_t intends to tell us that [A] the change of human height follows a cyclic pattern.[B] human height is being even more predictable.[C] Americans have reached their geic growth limit.[D] the geic pattern of Americans has altered.Te_t 4 In 1784, five years before he became president of the United States, George Washington, 52, was nearly toothless.So he hired a dentist to transplant nine teeth into his jaw – having e_tracted them from the mouths of his slaves.That’s a far different image from the cherry-tree-chopping George most people remember from their history books.But recently, many historians have begun to focus on the roles slavery played in the lives of the founding generation.They have been spurred in part by DNA evidence made available in 1998, which almost certainly proved Thomas Jefferson had fathered at least one child with his slave Sally Hemings.And only over the past 30 years have scholarse_amined history from the bottom up.Works of several historians reveal the moral promises made by the nation’s early leaders and the fragile nature of the country’s infancy.More significantly, they argue that many of the Founding Fathers knew slavery was wrong – and yet most did little to fight it.More than anything, the historians say, the founders were hered by the culture of their time.While Washington and Jefferson privately e_pressed distaste for slavery, they also understood that it waspart of the political and economic bedrock of the country they helped to create.For one thing, the South could not afford to partwith its slaves.Owning slaves was “like having a large bank account,” says Wiencek, author of An Imperfect God: George Washington, His Slaves, and the Creation of America.The southern states would not have signed the Constitution without protections for the “peculiar institution,” including a clause that counted a slave as three fifths of a man for purposes of congressional representation.And the statesmen’s political lives depended on slavery.The three-fifths formula handed Jefferson his narrow victory in the presidential election of 1800 by inflating the votes of the southern states in the Electoral College.Once in office, Jefferson e_tended slavery with the Louisiana Purchase in 1803; the new land was carved into 13 states, including three slave states.Still, Jefferson freed Hemings’s children – though not Hemings herself or his appro_imately 150 other slaves.Washington, who had begun to believe that all menwere created equal after observing the bravery of theblack soldiers during the Revolutionary War, overcame the strong opposition of his relatives to grant his slavestheir freedom in his will.Only a decade earlier, such an act would haverequired legislative approval in Virginia.36.George Washington’s dental surgery is mentioned to[A] show the primitive medical practice in the past.[B] demonstrate the cruelty of slavery in his days.[C] stress the role of slaves in the U.S.history.[D] reveal some unknown aspect of his life.37.We may infer from the second paragraph that [A] DNA technology has been widely applied to history research.[B] in its early days the U.S.was confronted with delicate situations.[C] historians deliberately made up some stories of Jefferson’s life.[D] political promises are easily found throughout the U.S.history.38.What do we learn about Thomas Jefferson? [A] His political view changed his attitude towards slavery.[B] His status as a father made him free the child slaves.[C] His attitude towards slavery was ple_.[D] His affair with a slave stained his prestige.39.Which of the following is true according to the te_t?[A] Some Founding Fathers benefit politically from slavery.[B] Slaves in the old days did not have the right to vote.[C] Slave owners usually had large savings accounts.[D] Slavery was regarded as a peculiar institution.40.Washington’s decision to free slaves originated from his [A] moral considerations.[B] military e_perience.[C] financial conditions.[D] political stand.Part B Directions: In the following article, some sentences have been removed.For Questions 41—45, choose the most suitable one from the list A-G to fit into each of the numbered blanks.There are two e_tra choices, which do not fit in anyof the blanks.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(10 points) The time for sharpening pencils,arranging your desk, and doing almost anything elseinstead of writing has ended.The first draft will appear on the page only if you stop avoiding the inevitable and sit, stand up, or lie down to write.(41)是大家网原创出品 Be fle_ible.Your outline should smoothly conduct you from onepoint to the ne_t, but do not permit it to railroad you.If a relevant and important idea occurs to you now, work it into the draft.(42) 是大家网原创出品 Grammar, punctuation, and spelling can wait until you revise.Concentrate on what you are saying.Good writing most often occurs when you are in hot pursuit of an idea rather than in a nervous search for errors.(43) 是大家网原创出品 Your pages will be easier to keep track of that way, and, if you have to clip a paragraph to place it elsewhere, you will not lose any writing on the other side.If you are working on a word processor, you can take advantage of its capacity to make additions and deletions as well as move entire paragraphs by making just a few simple keyboard mands.Some software programs can also check spelling and certain grammatical elements in your writing.(44) 是大家网原创出品 These printouts are also easier to read than the screen when you work on revisions.Once you have a first draft on paper, you can delete material that is unrelated to your thesis and addmaterial necessary to illustrate your points and make your paper convincing.The student w ho wrote “The A &; P as a State of Mind” wisely dropped a paragraph that questioned whether Sammy displays chauvinistic attitudes toward women.(45) 是大家网原创出品 Remember that your initialdraft is only that.You should go through the paper many times – and then again – working to substantiate and clarify your ideas.You may even end up with several entire versions of the paper.Rewrite.The sentences within each paragraph should be related to a single topic.Transitions should connect one paragraph to the ne_t so that there are no abrupt or confusing shifts.Awkward or wordy phrasing or unclear sentences and paragraphs should be mercilessly poked and prodded into shape.[A] To make revising easier, leave wide margins ande_tra space between lines so that you can easily add words, sentences, and corrections.Write on only one side of the paper.[B] After you have clearly and adequately developed the body of your paper, pay particular attention to the introductory and concluding paragraphs.It’s probably best to w rite the introduction last, after you know precisely what you are introducing.Concluding paragraphs demand equal attention because they leave the reader with a final impression.[C] It’s worth remembering, however, that though a clean copy fresh off a printer may look terrific, it will read only as well as the thinking and writing that have gone into it.Many writers prudently store their data on disks and print their pages each time they finish a draft to avoid losing any material because of power failures or other problems.[D] It makes no difference how you write, just so you do.Now that you have developed a topic into a tentative thesis, you can assemble your notes and begin to flesh out whatever outline you have made.[E] Although this is an interesting issue, it has nothing to do with the thesis, which e_plains how the setting influences Sammy’s decision to quit his job.Instead of including that paragraph, she added one that described Lengel’s crabbed response to the girls so that she could lead up t o the A &; P “policy” he enforces.[F] In the final paragraph about the significance of the setting in “A &; P,” the student brings together the reasons Sammy quit his job by referring to hisrefusal to accept Lengel’s store policies.[G] By using the first draft as a means of thinking about what you want to say, you will very likely discover more than your notes originally suggested.Plenty of good writers don’t use outlines at all but discover ordering principles as they write.Do not attempt to pose a perfectly correct draft the first time around.Part C Directions: Read the following te_t carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese.Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.(10 points) In his autobiography, Darwin himself speaks of his intellectual powers with e_traordinary modesty.He points out that he always e_perienced muchdifficulty in e_pressing himself clearly and concisely,but (46) he believes that this very difficulty may have had the pensating advantage of forcing him to think long and intently about every sentence, and thus enabling himto detect errors in reasoning and in his own observations.He disclaimed the possession of any great quicknessof apprehension or wit, such as distinguished Hu_ley.(47) He asserted, also, that his power to follow along and purely abstract train of thought was verylimited, for which reason he felt certain that he never could have succeeded with mathematics.His memory, too, he described as e_tensive, but hazy.So poor in one sense was it that he never could remember for more than a few days a single date or a line of poetry.(48) On the other hand, he did not accept as well founded the charge made by some of his critics that, while he was a good observer, he had no power of reasoning.This, he thought, could not be true, because the “Origin of Species” is one long argument from the beginning to the end, and has convinced many able men.No one, he submits, could have written it without possessing some power of reasoning.He was willing to assert that “I have a fair share of invention, and of mon sense or judgment, such as every fairly successful lawyer or doctor must have, but not, I believe, in any higher degree.” (49) He adds humbly that perhaps he was “superior to the m on run of men in noticing things which easily escape attention, and in observing them carefully.” Writing in the last year of his life, he e_pressed the opinion that in two or three respects his mind had changed during the preceding twenty or thirty years.Up to the age of thirty or beyond it poetry of many kinds gave him great pleasure.Formerly, too, pictures had given him considerable, and music very great, delight.In 1881, however, he said: “Now for many years I cannot endure to read a line of poetry.I have also almost lost my taste for pictures or music.” (50) Darwin was convinced that the loss of these tastes was not only a loss of happiness, but might possibly be injurious to the intellect, and more probably to the moral character.Section III Writing Part A 51.Directions: You have just e back from Canada and found a music CD in your luggage that you forgot to return to Bob, your landlord there.Write him a letter to 1) make an apology, and 2) suggest a solution.You should write about 100 words on ANSWER SHEET 2.Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter.Use “Li Ming” instead.Do not write the address.(10 points) Part B 52.Directions: Write an essay of 160-20__words based on the following drawing.In your essay, you should 1) describe the drawing briefly, 2) e_plain its intended meaning, and then 3) give your ments.You should write neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.(20 points) 2021年考研英语真题答案 Section I: Use of English (10 points) 1.B 2.D 3.A 4.C 5.C 6.A 7.B 8.D 9.B 10.C 11.B 12.D 13.A 14.C 15.D 17.C 18.A 19.B 20.A Section II: Reading prehension (60 points) Part A(40 points) 21.A 22.D 23.C 24.B 25.D 26.D 27.C 28.A 29.A 30.B 31.A 32.C 33.B 34.D 35.C 36.B 38.C 39.A 40.B Part B (10 points) 41.D 42.G 43.A 44.C 45.E Part C (10 points) 46.他认为或许正因为(语言表达上的)这种困难,他不得不对自己要说的每句话都经过长时间的认真思考,从而能发现自己在推理和观察中的错误,结果这反而成为他的优点。

2021年考研英语(一)新题型概述

2021年考研英语(一)新题型概述

2021年考研英语(一)新题型概述新题型(英语一)诞生于2021年——英语大纲进行了重大改革,考研英语一由原来的四大题型,(完型、阅读理解、翻译、写作)扩展为5大题型(完型、阅读理解、新题型、翻译、写作),其中,新添加的一种题型就是新题型。

新题型属于阅读理解的Part B 部分,共5题,每题2分,总分10分。

然而,新题型所占分值相同,考查能力相同,但是,英语一和英语二的考查新题型的命题形式稍有不同。

今天准备了“2021考研英语新题型英语(一)概述”,供大家复习参考。

根据历年真题分析,及考研英语大纲要求,新题型对考生的考查能力,势必要不同于传统阅读理解(Part A ),传统阅读理解,究根结底考查的是理解能力,而新题型考查的能力,更侧重,强调一篇文章地宏观层面,考查语篇、文章的段与段、句与句之间的衔接与连贯,考查考生判断衔接度与连贯性的能力。

根据英语大纲对新题型考查能力的要求,新题型英语一分为三种命题形式:1、完型填句、段式;2、排序题;3、小标题。

观察发现,自从2021年起至2021年(历经13年),其中,完型填句、填段式,考频最高,难度适中,共考过7年(2021,2021,2021,2021,2021,2021,2021年);排序题,考频适中,难度最高,共考过4年(2021,2021,2021,2021年);小标题,考频最低,难度最低,共考过2年(2021和2021年)。

完型填句、填段式指在文章中有5个空,通常文章后面给出6—7个未知选项(句子或是段落),考生根据衔接度最高,连贯性最大为原则,选出与已知信息相似性最大的选项,选填到文章中。

简而言之,与传统完型填空的区别是,新题型选填的是句子或者段落。

以2021年的完型填句、填段式为例Part BDirections:In the following text, some sentences have been removed. For Questions 41-45, choose the most suitable one from the fist A-G to fit each of the numbered blanks. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)How does your reading proceed? Clearly you try to comprehend, in the sense of identifying meanings for individual words and working out relationships between them, drawing on your explicit knowledge of English grammar (41) ______you begin to infer a context for the text, for instance, by making decisions about what kind of speech event is involved: who is making the utterance, to whom, when and where.The ways of reading indicated here are without doubt kinds of of comprehension. But they show comprehension to consist not just passive assimilation but of active engagement inference and problem-solving. You infer information you feel the writer has invited you to grasp by presenting you with specificevidence and cues (42) _______Conceived in this way, comprehension will not follow exactly the same track for each reader. What is in question is not the retrieval of an absolute, fixed or “true” meaning that can be read off and clocked for accuracy, or some timeless relation of the text to the world. (43) _______Such background material inevitably reflects who we are, (44) _______This doesn’t, however, make interpretation merely relative or even pointless. Precisely because readers from different historical periods, places and social experiences produce different but overlapping readings of the same words on the page-including for texts that engage with fundamental human concerns-debates about texts can play an important role in social discussion of beliefs and values.How we read a given text also depends to some extent on our particular interest in reading it. (45)_______such dimensions of read suggest-as others introduced later in the book will also do-that we bring an implicit (often unacknowledged) agenda to any act of reading. It doesn’t then necessarily follow that one kind of reading is fuller, more advanced or more worthwhile than another. Ideally, different kinds of reading inform each other, and act as useful reference points for andcounterbalances to one another. Together, they make up the reading component of your overall literacy or relationship to your surrounding textual environment.[A] Are we studying that text and trying to respond in a way that fulfils the requirement of a given course? Reading it simply for pleasure? Skimming it for information? Ways of reading on a train or in bed are likely to differ considerably from reading in a seminar room.[B] Factors such as the place and period in which we are reading, our gender ethnicity, age and social class will encourage us towards certain interpretation but at the same time obscure or even close off others.[C] If you are unfamiliar with words or idioms, you guess at their meaning, using clues presented in the contest. On the assumption that they will become relevant later, you make a mental note of discourse entities as well as possible links between them.[D]In effect, you try to reconstruct the likely meanings or effects that any given sentence, image or reference might have had: These might be the ones the author intended.[E]You make further inferences, for instance, about how the test may be significant to you, or about its validity—inferences that form the basis of a personal response for which the author will inevitably be far less responsible.[F]In plays,novels and narrative poems, characters speak as constructs created by the author, not necessarily as mouthpieces for the author’s own thoughts.[G]Rather, we ascribe meanings to test on the basis of interaction between what we might call textual and contextual material: between kinds of organization or patterning we perceive in a text’s formal structures (so especially its language structures) and various kinds of background, social knowledge, belief and attitude that we bring to the text.

考研英语真题2021解析

考研英语真题2021解析

考研英语真题2021解析2021年考研英语真题解析如下:Section I: Reading ComprehensionPassage 1: The Impact of Climate Change on WildlifeClimate change has become a pressing concern worldwide due to its adverse effects on both the environment and various species of wildlife. Rising temperatures, melting ice caps, and changing rainfall patterns are just a few examples of how climate change is altering ecosystems and disrupting the natural habitats of many animals.One of the most evident impacts of climate change on wildlife is the alteration of migratory patterns. Many species rely on specific temperature ranges and weather conditions to initiate their long-distance travels. However, with the increase in global temperatures, these patterns are being effectively disrupted. For instance, certain bird species that traditionally migrate during particular seasons may find it increasingly difficult to adjust their timing and choose the appropriate locations due to unpredictable weather.In addition, the loss of glacial ice in the polar regions poses a significant threat to wildlife. Polar bears, for example, rely on these ice platforms for hunting and mating. With the melting of ice, their habitats are diminishing rapidly, leading to an increased risk of starvation and population decline. Similarly, sea turtles rely on specific beach locations for nesting, and rising sea levels can result in the loss of nesting areas, leading to a decline in population.Furthermore, climate change can impact the availability of food sources for wildlife. Changes in rainfall patterns, for instance, can lead to droughts that limit the growth of vegetation and availability of prey. This can have cascading effects on various species dependent on these food sources, such as wolves and foxes, leading to potential declines in population and disruptions in the food chain.In conclusion, climate change has significant implications for wildlife. The alteration of migratory patterns, loss of glacial ice, and changes in food availability are just a few examples of how global warming is impacting various species. It is crucial that we address climate change urgently and take necessary measures to protect wildlife and their habitats.Passage 2: The Role of Artificial Intelligence in EducationArtificial intelligence (AI) has transformed numerous industries, and education is no exception. It has the potential to revolutionize the way students learn and teachers teach. AI-powered tools and platforms offer personalized learning experiences, enhance efficiency, and provide valuable insights for educators.One of the key advantages of AI in education is its ability to provide personalized learning experiences. AI algorithms can analyze each student's learning patterns, strengths, and weaknesses and tailor the content and pace of instruction accordingly. This ensures that students receive individualized attention and can progress at their own pace. Adaptive learning platforms powered by AI can identify areas where students may be struggling and provide additional resources or remedial exercises to support their learning.In addition, AI can streamline administrative tasks for educators, saving them time and allowing them to focus on teaching. AI-powered grading systems, for example, can automatically evaluate and provide feedback on assignments and exams. This not only reduces the workload for teachers but also allows them to provide timely feedback to students, facilitating their learning and growth.Furthermore, AI can play a crucial role in identifying and addressing learning gaps. By analyzing vast amounts of data, AI algorithms can highlight areas where students might be struggling or falling behind. This helps educators identify specific areas that need attention and enables them to intervene early, providing targeted support to students.However, it's important to note that AI cannot completely replace teachers. The role of educators remains essential in guiding and mentoring students. AI should be seen as a tool that enhances teaching and learning, rather than a substitute for human interaction and guidance.In conclusion, AI has the potential to revolutionize education by offering personalized learning experiences, streamlining administrative tasks, and identifying learning gaps. However, it is crucial to strike a balance between AI and human interaction to ensure that students receive comprehensive and holistic education.Passage 3: The Impact of Social Media on SocietySocial media has become an integral part of modern society, connecting people, disseminating information, and shaping public opinion. While there are numerous benefits associated with social media, it also brings about significant challenges and impacts on society.One of the positive impacts of social media is its ability to connect people from diverse backgrounds and geographical locations. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram enable individuals to connect with friends, family, and acquaintances, regardless of their physical distance. This helps foster relationships, maintain social connections, and bridge gaps between different communities.Furthermore, social media has played a pivotal role in promoting social and political movements. The Arab Spring, for instance, was fueled by the power of social media, allowing activists to organize and mobilize protests on a massive scale. Social media has become a powerful tool for disseminating information, raising awareness about social issues, and holding authorities accountable.However, social media also has its negative impacts on society. One of the most significant challenges is the spread of fake news and misinformation. In today's interconnected world, false information can spread rapidly, leading to confusion, mistrust, and societal divisions. It is crucial for individuals to exercise critical thinking skills and verify the authenticity of information before sharing it with others.Moreover, social media can contribute to the development of addictive behaviors, particularly among young users. Endless scrolling, constant notifications, and the fear of missing out can negatively impact mental health and productivity. It is important for individuals to strike a balance between their online and offline lives and develop healthy habits regarding social media usage.In conclusion, social media has both positive and negative impacts on society. It has the power to connect people, promote social movements, and raise awareness about important issues. However, it also brings challenges such as the spread of fake news and addictive behaviors. It is essential for individuals to use social media responsibly and critically engage with the information they encounter.Section II: Listening ComprehensionIn the listening section, candidates are presented with a variety of audio recordings, including conversations, interviews, and lectures.
