Mark youranswerson the ANSWER SHEET.(40 points)Text 1Anger over AI's role in exacerbating inequality could endanger the technology's future.In her new bookCogs and Monsters:What Economics Is,and What It Should Be,Diane Coyle,an economist at Cambridge University,argues that the digital economy requires new ways of thinking about progress.“Whatever we mean by the economy growing,by things getting better, the gains will have to bemoreevenly shared than in the recent past,"she writes."An economy of tech millionaires or billionaires and gig workers,with middle-income jobs undercut by automation, will not be politically sustainable.”Improving living standards and increasing prosperity for more people will require greater use of digital technologies to boost productivity in various sectors,including health care and construction,says Coyle.But people can't be expected to embracethe changes if they're not seeing the benefits—if they're just seeing goodjobs being destroyed.In a recent interview with MIT Technology Review,Coyle said she fears that tech's inequality problem could bea roadblock todeploying AI.“We're talking about disruption,”she says.“These are transformative technologies that change theways we spend our time every day, that change business models that succeed."To make such“tremendous changes,"she adds,you need social buy-in.Instead,says Coyle,resentment is simmeringamong many asthe benefits are perceived to go to elites in a handful of prosperous cities.According to the BrookingsInstitution,a short listof eight Americancities that included San Francisco,San Jose,Boston,and Seattle had roughly 38%of all tech jobs by 2019.New AI technologies are particularly concentrated:Brookings's Mark Muro and Sifan Liu estimate that just 15 cities account for two-thirds of the AI assets and capabilities in the United States (San Francisco and San Jose alone account for about one-quarter).The dominance of a few cities in the invention and commercialization of AI means that geographical disparities in wealth will continue to soar.Not only will this foster political andsocial unrest,but it could,as Coyle suggests,hold back the sorts of AI technologies needed for regional economies to grow.Part of the solution could lie in somehow loosening the stranglehold that Big Tech has on defining the AI agenda.That willlikely take increased federal funding for research independent of the tech giants.Muroand others have suggested hefty federal funding tohelp create USregional innovation centers,for example.A more immediate response is to broaden our digital imaginations to conceive of AI technologies that don't simply replace jobs but expand opportunities in the sectors that different parts ofthe country care most about,like health care,education,and manufacturing.21.Coyle argues in her new book that economic growth should[A]giverise toinnovation[B]diversify career choices[C]benefit people equally[D]be promoted forcefully22.According to paragraph 2,digital technology should be useful to[A]bring about instant prosperity[B]reducepeople's workload[C]raise overall work efficiencyD]enhance croSs-sector cooperation23.What does Coyle fearabout ransformative technology?[A]They may affect work-lifebalance.[B]They may be impractical to deploy.[C]They may incur huge expenditure.[D]They may be unwecome tothe public.24.Several American cities are mentioned to show[A]the uneven distribution of AI technologies in the US[B]the disappointing prospect of tech jobs in the US[C]the fast progress of US regional economies[D]the increasingsignificance of US AI assets25.With regard to Coyle concern,the author suggests[A]raising funds to start new AI projects[B]encouraging collaboration in AI research[C]guarding against the side effects of AI[D]redefining the role of AItechnologiesText 2The UK is facing a future construction crisis because of a failure to plant trees to produce wood,Conforhas wamed.The forestry and wood trade body has called for urgent action to reduce the country's reliance on timber imports and provide a stable supply of wood for futuregenerations.Currently only 20 percent of the UK's wood requirement is home-grown while it remains the second-largest net importer of timber in the world.Coming at a time offresh incentives from the UK govemment for landowners to grow more trees,the trade body says thesedon't go far enough and fail to promote the benefits of planting them to boost timber supplies.“Not only are we facing a carbon crisis now,but we will also be facing a future construction crisis because of failure to plant trees to produce wood.”said Stuart Goodall,chief executive of Confor."For decades wehave not taken responsibility for investing in our domestic wood supply,leaving us exposed to fluctuating prices and fighting for future supplies of wood as global demand rises and our own supplies fall."The UK has ideal conditions for growing wood to build low-carbon homes and is a global leader in certifying that its forests are sustainably managed,Confor says.While around three quarters of Scottish homes are built from Scottish timber,the use of home-grownwood in England isonly around 25 percent.While productive tree planting can deliver real financial benefits to rural economies and contribute to the UK's net-zero strategy,the focus of government support continuesto be on food production and the rewinding andplanting of native woodland solely for biodiversity.Goodall add: “While food production and biodiversity are clearly of critical importance,we need our land to also provide secure supplies of wood for construction,manufacturing and contribute to net zero.“While the UK government has stated its ambition for more tree planting,there has been little action on the ground."Confor is now calling for much greater impetus behind those aspirations to ensure we have enough wood to meet increasing demand."26.It can be learmed from paragraph I thattheUK needsto[A]increase its domesticwood supply[B]reduce its demand for timber[C]lower its wood production costsD]lift its control on timber imports27.According to Confor,the UK government's fresh incentives[A]can hardly address construction crisis[B]are believed to come at the wrong time[C]seemto bemisleading for landowners[D]will be costlyto put into practice28.The UK's exposure to fluctuational wood prices is a result of[A]govenment's inaction on timber imports[B]inadequate investmentin growing wood[C]competiton oftimber traders at home[D]wood products motive to maximise profits29.Which of the following causes the shortage of wood supply in UK?[A]excessive timber consumption in construction[B]unfavorable conditions for growing trees[C]outdated technology for woodproductionD]farmers'unwillingness to plant trees30.What does Goodall think UK govenment should do?[A]Subsidise the building of low-carbon homes.[B]Pay attention torural economy.[C]Provide more support for tree planting.[D]Give priority to pursue net-zero strategyText 3Onebig challenge in keeping unsafe aging drivers off the road isconvincing them that it is time to tum over the key.It is a complete life-changer when someone stops—or is forced to stop—driving,said former risk manager Anne M.Menke.The American Medical Association advises physicians that in situation where clear evidence of substantial driving impairment implies a strong threat to patient and public safety,and where the physician's advice to discontinue driving privileges is ignored,it is desirable and ethical to notify the Department of Motor Vehicles,Menke wrote.“Some states require physicians to report, others allow but do not mandate reports,while a few consider a report breach of confidentiality. There could be liability and penalties if a physician does not act in accordance with state laws on reporting and confidentiality"she counseled.Part ofthe problem in keepingolder drivers safe is that the difficulties are addressed piecemeal by different professions with different focuses,including gerontologists,highway administration officials,automotive engineers and others,said gerontologist Elizabeth Dugan. “There's not a National Institute of Older Driver Studies,"she said.“We need better evidence on what makesdrivers unsafe”andwhat can help,said Dugan.One thing that does seem to work is requiring drivers to report in person for license renewal. Mandatory in-person renewal was associated with a31 percent reduction in fatal crashes involving drivers 85 or older,according to one study.Passing vision tests also produced a similar decline in fatal crashes for those drivers,although there appeared to be nobenefit from combining the two.Many old drivers don't see eye doctors or can't afford to.Primary care providers have their hands full and may not be able to follow throughwith patients who have trouble driving because they can'tturn their heads or remember where they are going—or have gotten shorter and haven't changed their seat settings sufficiently to reach car pedals easily,As long as there are other cars on the roads,self-driving cars won't solve the problems of crashes,said Dugan.Avoiding dangers posed by all those humandrivers would require to many algorithms,she said.But we need to domore to improve safety,said Dugan.“If we're going to have 100-year lives,we need cars thata 90-year-old can drive comfortably.”31.According to Paragraphl,keeping unsafe aging drivers off the road[A]is a new safety measure[B]has become a disputed issue[C]can be a tough task to completeD]will be beneficial to their health32.The American medical associations advice[A]has won support from drivers[B]is generally considered unrealistic[C]is wide dismissed as unnecessary[D]has met with different responses33.According to Dugan,efforts to keep older drivers safe[A]have broughtabout big changes[B]need to be well coordinated[C]have gained public concen[D]call forrelevant legal support34.Some older drivers have trouble driving because they tend to[A]stick with bad driving habits[B]have a weakened memory[C]suffer from chronic pains[D]neglect car maintenance35.Dugan thinks that the solution to the problems of crashes may lie in[A]upgrading self-driving vehicle[B]developing senior-friendly cars[C]renovatingtransport facilities[D]adjusting the age limit for driversText 4If you look at the apps on your phone,chances are you have at least one related to your health—and probably several.Whether it is a mental health app,a fitness tracker,a connected health device or something else,many of us are taking advantage of this technologyto keepbetter track of our health in some shape or form.Recent research from the Organization for the Review of Care and Health Applications found that 350,000 health apps were available on the market, 90,000 of which launched in 2020 alone.While these apps have a great deal to offer,it is not always clear how the personal information we input is collected,safeguarded and shared online.Existing health privacy law, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act,is primarily focused on the way hospitals,doctors'offices,clinics and insurance companies store health records online. The health information these apps and health data tracking wearables are collecting typically does not receive the same legalprotections.Without additional protections in place,companies may share (and potentially monetize)personal healthinformationin away consumersmay not have authorized or anticipated. In 2021,Flo Health faced a Federal Trade Commission(FTC)investigation.The FTC alleged in a complaint that "despite express privacy claims,the company took control of users' sensitivity fertility data and shared it with thirdparties."Flo Health and the FTC settled the matter with a Consent Order requiring the company to get appusers'express affirmative consent before sharing their health information as well as to instruct the third parties to delete thedata they had obtained.Section 5 of the FTC Act empowers the FTC to initiate enforcement action against unfair or deceptive acts,meaning the FTC can only act after the fact if a company's privacy practices are misleading or causeunjustified consumer harm.While the FTC is doing what it can to ensure apps are keeping their promises to consumers around the handling of their sensitive health information, the rate at which these health apps are hitting the market demonstrates just how immense of a challenge this isAs to the prospects for federal legislation,commentators suggest that comprehensive federal privacy legislation seems unlikely in the short term.States have begun implementing their own solutions to shore upprotections for consumer-generated health data.Califomia has been at the forefront of state privacy efforts with the Califomia Consumer Privacy Act of 2018.Virginia, Colorado and Utah have also recently passed state consumer dataprivacy legislation.36.The research findings are cited in Paragraph 1 to show[A]the prevalence of health apps[B]the public concem over health[C]the popularity of smartphones[D]the advancement of technology37.What dose the author imply about existing health privacy law?[A]Its coverage needs to be extended.[B]Its enforcement needs strengthening.[C]It has discouraged medical misconduct.[D]It has disappointed insurance companies.38.Before sharing its users'health information,Flo Health is required to[A]seek the approvalof the FTC[B]find qualified third parties[C]remove irrelevant personal data[D]obtain their explicit permission39.What challenges is the FTC currently faced with?[A]The complexity of health information.[B]The rapid increase in new health apps.[C]The subtle deceptiveness ofhealth apps.[D]The difficulty in assessing consumer harm.40.It can be leamed from the last paragraphthat health data protection[A]has been embraced by health app developers[B]has been afocus of federal policy-making[C]hasencountered opposition in Califomia[D]has gainedlegislative support in some statesPart BDirections:Read the following text and choose

thecollege application process often participate in a litany of extracurricular activities hoping to bolster their chances of admission a selective undergraduate institution.However,college admissions experts say that the quality of a college hopeful's extracurricular activities matter more thanthe number of activities he or she participates in.Sue Rexford,the director of college guidance at the Charles.E.Smith Jewish Day School, says it is not necessary for astudent,filing out the Common Application to list 10 activities in the application“No”college will expect that a student has a huge laundry list of extracurricular that they have been passionately involved in each for an tended periodof time,"Rexford wrote in an email Experts say it is tougher to distinguish oneself in a school-affiliated extracurricular activity that is common among high school students than it is to stand out while doing an uncommon activity.“The competition to stand out and make an impact is going to be much stiffer,and so if they're going todo a popular activity,I'd say,be thebest at it."says Sara Harherson,a college admission consultant.High school students who have an impressive personal project they are working on independentlyoften impress colleges,experts say.“For example,a student with an interest in entrepreneurship could demonstrateskills and potential by starting a profitable small business.”Olivia Valdes,the founde r of Zen Admissionsconsulting firm,wrote in an email.Joseph Adegboyega-Edun,a Maryland High school guidance counselor,says unconventional extracurricular activities can help students,impress college admissions offices,assuming they demonstrated,serious commitment.“Again,since one of the big questions high school seniors must consider is ‘What makes you unique?'having an uncommon,extracurricular activity,a conventional one is an advantage,"he wrote in an email.Experts say demonstrating talent in at least one extracurricular activity can help in the college admissionsprocess,especiallyat top-tier undergraduate institutions.“Distinguishing yourself in one focused type of extracurricular activity can be a positive in the admissions process,especially for highly selective institutions,where having top grades and test scores is not enough,"Katie Kelley admissions counselor at Ivy Wise admissions consultancy, wrote in an email.“Student s need to have that quality or hook that will appeal to admissions officers and allow them to visualize how the student might come and enrich their campus commuity.”Extracurricular activities related to the college major declared on a college application are beneficial,experts suggest.“If you already know your major,having an extracurricular that fits into that major can be a big plus,"says Mayghin Levine,the manager of educational opportunities with The CabbagePatch Settlement House,a Louisville,Kentucky,nonprofit community center.High school students who have had a strong positive influence on their community through an extracurricular activity may impress a college and win a scholarship,says Erica Gwyn,afomer math and science magnet program assistant at a public high school who is now executive director of the Kaleidoscope Careers Academy in Atlanta,a nonprofit organization.答案：41.C 42.E 43.A 44.G 45.BSection II Translation46.Directions:Translate the

考研英语二作文试题及答案
考研英语二作文试题及答案考研英语二作文试题：You should spend about 40 minutes on this task, writing an essay of about 250 words. The essay should begin with an introductory paragraph, followed by body paragraphs as appropriate, and conclude with a summary.You are required to write an essay discussing the following points:1. The role of technology in modern education.2. The advantages and disadvantages of using technology in the classroom.3. Your opinion on the balance between traditional and technological methods in education.Model Answer:The advent of technology has revolutionized various aspects of our lives, and education is no exception. The integration of technology in the educational sector has transformed the way students learn and teachers teach.One of the most significant roles of technology in modern education is the accessibility it provides. Students can now access a wealth of information at their fingertips, which waspreviously unimaginable. Online courses and digital libraries have made learning more convenient and have broken down geographical barriers, allowing students from all over the world to learn from renowned institutions.Moreover, technology has made the learning process more interactive and engaging. The use of multimedia tools such as videos, animations, and simulations can cater to different learning styles, making complex subjects more understandable. Additionally, technology facilitates personalized learning, where educational content can be tailored to meet the individual needs of students.However, the use of technology in the classroom is not without its drawbacks. There are concerns about the digital divide, where students from less privileged backgrounds may not have equal access to technological resources. This could potentially widen the gap in educational outcomes between different socioeconomic groups. Furthermore, an over-reliance on technology may lead to a decrease in critical thinking and problem-solving skills, as students may become too dependent on digital aids.In my opinion, while technology has its merits, it is essential to strike a balance with traditional methods of education. Face-to-face interaction between teachers and students is invaluable, as it fosters a sense of community and allows for more personalized feedback. The use of technology should complement, not replace, the core educational experience. For instance, technology can be used to enhance classroom discussions, facilitate research, andsupport collaborative projects.In conclusion, technology has undoubtedly had a profound impact on education. While it offers numerous advantages, it is crucial to address its potential disadvantages and maintain a balance with traditional teaching methods. This balanced approach can ensure that education remains effective and inclusive for all students.。

(40 points)Text 1Every Saturday morning, at 9 am, more than 50,000 runners set off to run 5km around their local park. The Parkrun phenomenon began with a dozen friends and has inspired 400 events in the UK and more abroad. Events are free, staffed by thousands of volunteers. Runners range from four years old to grandparents; their times rang e from Andrew Baddeley’s world record 13 minutes 48 seconds up to an hour.Parkrun is succeeding where London’s Olympic “legacy” is failing. Ten years ago on Monday, it was announced that the Games of the 30th Olympiad would be in London. Planning documents pledged that the great legacy of the Games would be to level a nation of sport lovers away from their couches. The population would be fitter, healthier and produce more winners. It has not happened. The number of adults doing weekly sport did rise, byn early 2 million in the run―up to ―but the general population was growing faster. Worse, the numbers are now falling at an accelerating rate. The opposition claims primary school pupils doing at least two hours of sport a week have nearly halved. Obesity has risen among adults and children. Official retrospections continue as to why London 2012 failed to “inspire a generation.” The success of Parkrun offers answers.Parkun is not a race but a time trial: Your only competitor is the clock. The ethos welcomes anybody. There is as much joy over a puffed-out first-timer being clapped over the line as there is about top talent shining. The Olympic bidders, by contrast, wanted to get more people doing sports and to produce more elite athletes. The dual aim was mixed up: The stress on success over taking part was intimidating for newcomers.Indeed, there is something a little absurd in the state getting involved in the planning of such a fundamentally “grassroots”, concept as community sports associations. If there i s a role for government, it should really be getting involved in providing common goods―making sure there is space for playing fields and the money to pave tennis and netball courts, and encouraging the provision of all these activities in schools. But successive governments have presided over selling green spaces, squeezing money from local authorities and declining attention on sport in education. Instead of wordy, worthy strategies, future governments need to do more to provide the conditions for sport to thrive. Or at least not make them worse.21. According to Paragraph1, Parkrun has .[A] gained great popularity[B] created many jobs[C] strengthened community ties[D] become an official festival【答案】[A] gained great popularity22.

It makes it hard to disengage, and leads to a lot of bleed-over into the family routine. ”Radesky has studied the use of mobile phones and tablets at mealtimes by giving mother-child pairs a food-testing exercise. She found that mothers who sued devices during the exercise started 20 percent fewer verbal and 39 percent fewer nonverbal interactions with their children. During a separate observation, she saw that phones became a source of tension in the family. Parents would be looking at their emails while the children would be making excited bids for their attention.Infants are wired to look at parents’ faces to try to understand their world, and if t hose faces are blank and unresponsive―as they often are when absorbed in a device―it can be extremely disconcerting foe the children. Radesky cites the “still face experiment” devised by developmental psychologist Ed Tronick in the 1970s. In it, a mother is asked to interact with her child in a normal way before putting on a blank expression and not giving them any visual social feedback; The child becomes increasingly distressed as she tries to capture her mother’s attention. “Parents don’t have to be exqu isitely parents at all times, but there needs to be a balance and parents need to be responsive and sensitive to a child’s verbal or nonverbal expressions of an emotional need,” says Radesky.On the other hand, Tronick himself is concerned that the worries about kids’ use of screens are born out of an “oppressive ideology that demands that parents should always be interacting” with their children: “It’s based on a somewhat fantasized, very white, very upper-middle-class ideology that says if you’re failing to expose your child to 30,000 words you are neglecting them.” Tronick believes that just because a child isn’t learning from the screen doesn’t mean there’s no value to it―particularly if it gives parents time to have a shower, do housework or simply have a break from their child. Parents, he says, can get a lot out of using their devices to speak to a friend or get some work out of the way. This can make them feel happier, which lets then be more available to their child the rest of the time.26. According to Jenny Radesky, digital products are designed to ______.[A] simplify routine matters[B] absorb user attention[C] better interpersonal relations[D] increase work efficiency【答案】[B] absorb user attention27. Radesky’s food-testing exercise shows that mothers’ use of devices ______.[A] takes away babies’ appetite[B] distracts children’s attention[C] slows down babies’ verbal development[D] reduces mother-child communication【答案】[D] reduces mother-child communication28. Radesky’s cites the “still face experiment” to show that _______.[A] it is easy for children to get used to blank expressions[B] verbal expressions are unnecessary for emotional exchange[C] children are insensitive to changes in their parents’ mood[D] parents need to respond to children’s emotional needs【答案】[D] parents need to respond to children’s emotional needs29. The oppressive ideology mentioned by Tronick requires parents to_______.[A] protect kids from exposure to wild fantasies[B] teach their kids at least 30,000 words a year[C] ensure constant interaction with their children[D] remain concerned about kid’s use of screens【答案】[C] ensure constant interaction with their children30. According to Tronick, kid’s use of screens may_______.[A] give their parents some free time[B] make their parents more creative[C] help them with their homework[D] help them become more attentive【答案】[A] give their parents some free timeText 3Today, widespread social pressure to immediately go to college in conjunction with increasingly high expectations in a fast-moving world often causes students to completelyoverlook the possibility of taking a gap year. After all, if everyone you know is going to college in the fall, it seems silly to stay back a year, doesn’t it? And after going t o school for 12 years, it doesn’t feel natural to spend a year doing something that isn’t academic.But while this may be true, it’s not a good enough reason to condemn gap years. There’s always a constant fear of falling behind everyone else on the social ly perpetuated “race to the finish line,” whether that be toward graduate school, medical school or lucrative career. But despite common misconceptions, a gap year does not hinder the success of academic pursuits―in fact, it probably enhances it.Studies from the United States and Australia show that students who take a gap year are generally better prepared for and perform better in college than those who do not. Rather than pulling students back, a gap year pushes them ahead by preparing them for independence, new responsibilities and environmental changes―all things that first-year students often struggle with the most. Gap year experiences can lessen the blow when it comes to adjusting to college and being thrown into a brand new environment, making it easier to focus on academics and activities rather than acclimation blunders.If you’re not convinced of the inherent value in taking a year off to explore interests, then consider its financial impact on future academic choices. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, nearly 80 percent of college students end up changing their majors at least once. This isn’t surprising, considering the basic mandatory high school curriculum leaves students with a poor understanding of themselves listing one major on their college applications, but switching to another after taking college classes. It’s not necessarily a bad thing, but depending on the school, it can be costly to make up credits after switching too late in the game. At Boston College, for example, you would have to complete an extra year were you to switch to the nursing school from another department. Taking a gap year to figure things out initially can help prevent stress and save money later on.31. One of the reasons for high-school graduates not taking a gap year is that .[A] they think it academically misleading[B] they have a lot of fun to expect in college[C] it feels strange to do differently from others[D] it seems worthless to take off-campus courses【答案】[C] it feels strange to do differently from others32. Studies from the US and Australia imply that taking a gap year helps .[A] keep students from being unrealistic[B] lower risks in choosing careers[C] ease freshmen’s financial burdens[D] relieve freshmen of pressures【答案】[D] relieve freshmen of pressures33.

The Inevitable Shift to a Digital Economy andIts Impact on SocietyIn the fast-paced era of technological advancements, the transition to a digital economy has become inevitable. This shift, driven by the convergence of information technology and various industries, is reshaping the global economic landscape and profoundly influencing every aspect of society.The rise of the digital economy is marked by the exponential growth of data and the emergence of new technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and cloud computing. These technologies are revolutionizing traditional industries, from manufacturing to healthcare, finance, and retail. They enable businesses to operate more efficiently, innovate continuously, and reach wider markets. At the same time, they create new job opportunities and industries, driving economic growth and prosperity.However, the transition to a digital economy is not without challenges. One significant concern is the digital divide, which refers to the gap between those who haveaccess to and can benefit from digital technologies and those who lack such access. This divide can lead to social inequality and exacerbate existing disparities in education, healthcare, and employment opportunities.Moreover, the digital economy poses new challenges to privacy and security. The vast amounts of personal data generated and stored in digital form make individuals vulnerable to privacy breaches and cyberattacks. This requires robust data protection laws and enhanced cybersecurity measures to safeguard individuals' rights and ensure the integrity of digital systems.Despite these challenges, the transition to a digital economy offers immense opportunities for societal progress. It enables greater connectivity and collaboration, breaking down geographical barriers and fostering global trade and cultural exchange. It also encourages creativity and innovation, fostering an environment where new ideas and solutions can thrive.To fully realize the potential of the digital economy,it is crucial to address the challenges it poses. This includes ensuring widespread access to digital technologies,investing in education and skills development to prepare the workforce for the future, and strengthening data protection and cybersecurity measures.In conclusion, the shift to a digital economy is a transformative trend that is shaping the future of society. While it presents challenges, it also offers immense opportunities for growth, innovation, and connectivity. By addressing these challenges and harnessing the power of digital technologies, we can build a more prosperous, inclusive, and secure world.**数字经济的必然转型及其对社会的影响**在科技飞速发展的时代，向数字经济的转型已成为必然之势。
2021考研英语二大作文真题及范文
2021考研英语二大作文真题及范文英语(二)真题PART BDirections:Write an essay based on the following chart. In your writing, you should1)interpret the chart, and2)give your comments.You should write about 150 words on the ANSWER SHEET.(15 points)【参考范文】This pie chart clearly illustrates the purposes of students’ touring in a certain university. As is reflected by the diagram, 37 percent of college students travel in a bid to appreciating the scenery, next comes the aim of relieving pressure, accounting for 33% percent. By contrast, the percentage of students travelling aiming at others, making friends and cultivating independence account for 15%, 9% and 6% respectively.Several primary factors could contribute to this phenomenon. In the first place, travel can offer us a wide range of experiences. In travelling, we may join tourists marveling at the incredible power of Niagara Falls, mingle with the happy throngs strolling in the Paris boulevards and experience the bitterness and joy of people on different lands and in different times. In the second place, college students, who have to juggle academic work, romantic relationships and a busy social calendar, are particularly susceptible to pressure. By touring, they can successfully manage and reduce stress.Taking all these factors into consideration, we may predictthat with the quickening pace of campus life and ever-increasing pressure, the number of university students touring will keep growing in the forthcoming decade.这个饼图清楚地说明了在某大学学生旅游的目的。

Coyle argues in her new book that economic growth should______A.give rise to innovations.B.diversify career choices.C.benefit people equally.D.be promoted forcefully.22. According to Paragraph2,digital technologies should be used to______A.bring about instant prosperity.B.reduce people’s workload.C.raise overall work efficiency.D.enhance cross-sector cooperation.23. What does Coyle fear about transformative technologies?A.They may affect work-life balance.B.They may be impractical to deploy.C.They may incur huge expenditure.D.They may be unwelcome to the public.24. Several American cities are mentioned to show______A.the uneven distribution of AI technologies in the US.B.the disappointing prospect of tech jobs in the US.C.the fast progress of US regional economies.D.the increasing significance of US AI assets.25. With regard to Coyle’s concern,the author suggests______A.raising funds to start new AI projects.B.encouraging collaboration in AI research.C.guarding against the side effects of AI.D.redefining the role of AI technologies.Text2The UK is facing a future construction crisis because of a failure to plant trees to produce wood,Confor has warned.The forestry and wood trade body has called for urgent action to reduce the country’s reliance on timber imports and provide a stable supply of wood for future generations.Currently only20percent of the UK’s wood requirement is home-grown while it remains the second-largest net importer of timber in the world.Coming at a time of fresh incentives from the UK government for landowners to grow more trees,the trade body says these don’t go far enough and fail to promote the benefits of planting them to boost timber supplies.“Not only are we facing a carbon crisis now,but we will also be facing a future construction crisis because of a failure to plant trees to produce wood,”said Stuart Goodall,chief executive of Confor.“For decades we have not taken responsibility for investing in our domestic wood supply,leaving us exposed to fluctuating prices and fighting for future supplies of wood as global demand rises and our own supplies fall.”The UK has ideal conditions for growing wood to build low-carbon homes and is a global leader in certifying that its forests are sustainably managed,Confor says.While around three quarters of Scottish homes are built from Scottish timber,the use of home-grown wood in England is only around25percent.The causes of the UK’s current position are complex and range from outdated perceptions of productive forestry to the decimation of trees by grey squirrels.It also encompasses significant hesitation on behalf of farmers and other landowners to invest in long-term planting projects.While productive tree planting can deliver real financial benefits to rural economies and contribute to the UK’s net-zero strategy,the focus of government support continues to be on food production and the rewilding and planting of native woodland solely for biodiversity. Goodall added:“While food production and biodiversity health are clearly of critical importance,we need our land to also provide secure supplies of wood for construction, manufacturing and contribute to net-zero.”“While the UK government has stated its ambition for more tree planting,there has been little action on the ground.Confor is now calling for much greater impetus behind those aspirations to ensure we have enough wood to meet increasing demand.”26. It can be learned from Paragraph1that the UK needs to______A.increase its domestic wood supply.B.reduce its demand for timber.C.lower its wood production costs.D.lift its control on timber imports.27. According to Confor,the UK government’s fresh incentives______A.can hardly address a construction crisis.B.are believed to come at a wrong time.C.seem to be misleading for landowners.D.will be too costly to put into practice.28. The UK’s exposure to fluctuating wood prices is a result of______A.the governments inaction on timber imports.B.inadequate investment in growing wood.C.the competition among timber traders at home.D.wood producers’motive to maximise profits.29. Which of the following causes the shortage of wood supply in the UK?A.Excessive timber consumption in construction.B.Unfavourable conditions for growing wood.C.Outdated technologies of the wood industry.D.Farmers’unwillingness to plant trees.30. What does Goodall think the UK government should do?A.Subsidise the building of low-carbon homes.B.Pay greater attention to boosting rural economies.C.Provide more support for productive tree planting.D.Give priority to pursuing its net-zero strategy.Text3One of the biggest challenges in keeping unsafe aging drivers off the road is convincing them that it’s time to turn over the keys.“It’s a complete life-changer”when someone stops —or is forced to stop—driving,said former risk manager Anne M.Menke.“The American Medical Association advises physicians that in situations where clear evidence of substantial driving impairment implies a strong threat to patient and public safety, and where the physician’s advice to discontinue driving privileges is ignored,it is desirable and ethical to notify the Department of Motor Vehicles,”Menke wrote.“Some states require physicians to report,others allow but do not mandate reports,while a few consider a report a breach of confidentiality.There could be liability and penalties if a physician does not act in accordance with state laws on reporting and confidentiality,”she counseled.Part of the problem in keeping older drivers safe is that the difficulties are addressed piecemeal by different professions with different focuses,including gerontologists,highway administration officials,automotive engineers and others,said gerontologist Elizabeth Dugan.“There’s not a National Institute of Older Driver Studies,”she said.“We need better evidence on what makes drivers unsafe”and what can help,said Dugan.One thing that does seem to work is requiring drivers to report in person for license renewal.Mandatory in-person renewal was associated with a31percent reduction in fatal crashes involving drivers85or older,according to one study.Passing vision tests also produced a similar decline in fatal crashes for those drivers,although there appeared to be no benefit from combining the two.Many older drivers don’t see eye doctors or can’t afford to.Primary care providers have their hands full and may not be able to follow through with patients who have trouble driving because they can’t turn their heads or remember where they are going—or have gotten shorter and haven’t changed their seat settings sufficiently to reach car pedals easily.As long as there are other cars on the roads,self-driving cars won’t solve the problems of crashes,said Dugan.Avoiding dangers posed by all those human drivers would require too many algorithms,she said.But we need to do more to improve safety,said Dugan.“If we’re going to have100-year lives,we need cars that a90-year-old can drive comfortably.”。

(15 points)You shouldinterpret the chart, andgive your comments.You should write about 150 words on the ANSWER SHEET. (15points)参考范文What is clearly presented in the above chart is the different numbers of urban residents and rural population among 1990,2000 and number of urban residents climbed steadily from 300 million in 1990 to 660 million or so in 2023，while rural population decreased slightly from about 820 million to 680 million or so in the same period.It is not difficult to come up with some possible factors accounting for this trend. On the one hand, with the rapid development of economy and society, people in mounting numbers crowd into cities in search of employment, a decent living and the excitement of urban life recently. On the other hand, the economy in the rural districts is comparative less developed and thus the opportunity to make money and pursue their future is as well lean. As a result, an increasing number of folks are tryingto escape this destiny by flocking into the urban areas.Given the analyses above, I firmly believe that such established trend will surely continue for quite a while in the forthcoming years and due importance should be attached to this evident situation.2023年考研英语二大作文真题范文第9篇Dear friends/students/classmates/schoolmates/professor,/ Dear Sir or Madam,/ Dear Mr. Manager,/ Dear Mr. President,/ To Whom It May Concern,/ Dear Editors,/ Dear Mr. Byron,/ Dear Sales Manager,I am a senior from the Department of English in Peking University.
