You can finish the experiment on your home PC if you join .‎ A, Oxford Vaccine Group B. Insomnia research group C, Oxford Experimental lab D. Brain Scanning study group B I believe in getting lost. Lost in the text of the novel that is particular to your thoughts and feelings that you consider special. Lost in the song that reminds you of your childhood summers, feeling the warm wind brushing against your arm as you ride your bicycle. Lost in the sip of cappuccino, idling the day away. Lost in the unprepared Sunday Drive, with no destination. You're free to wander, take paths that you've never noticed, discover places you haven't been. Then off the path to lead you back home, leaving you to test directions and alertly absorb your surroundings in order to find your way back; that land of lost I get lost daily; whether it's in thought, or the unplanned drive I just decided to go on. Getting Jost is an adventurous learning experience that trains you how to be more aware of your surroundings. A few of my most favorite memories involve physically getting lost That one late night trip back to Ludington I took with a few friends. We finally realized we were going the wrong way, almost three hours out of our way. Another time, I got lost in the DeVos Place and then the parking garage for two hours solid. These are nervous experiences that get your anxiety pumping. You’re fearful that you won't be safe, but it always works itself out in the end. Physically losing yourself prepares you for how you manage when you emotionally or mentally lose yourself.‎ You don't always have to be lost in a literal sense to "get 1ost" and some of the time, losing yourself may not be a positive experience. There are times where I lose sight of who I am. While lost, I test out metaphorical paths and sometimes they turn out to be the right direction and other times they are a wrong turn, I make note of these wrong turns, so I can avoid them further on up the road of finding my way back to who I am.‎ In Walden, Henry David Thoreau wrote "Not till we are lost, in other words not till we have lost the world, do we begin to find ourselves, and realize where we are and the infinite extent of our relations." Getting lost fuels my curiosity and teaches me lessons on finding my way back to the right track, I believe in getting Jost through day dreams, a misplacement, adventures, and difficult times when you make discoveries about yourself and the atmosphere around you. In order to truly find yourself I believe that you should put down the map and get wonderfully lost.‎ ‎24. The author believes in getting lost in .‎ A. reading a well-received novel B. listening to a song recalling the past C. hanging out with friends in a cafe D. going on a well-planned trip ‎25. The author mentions the experiences of physically getting lost in order to say .‎ A. physically getting lost is most difficult to deal with B. we can enjoy trips while physically getting lost C. people are easy to get physically lost in our daily life,‎ D. we realize our surroundings while physically getting lost ‎26. Words from Henry David Thoreau imply that getting lost .‎ A. enables us to look within and to see outward B. pulls people back into the previous moment C. enables us to remind ourselves of adventures D. helps us enjoy ourselves wherever we are ‎27, Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?‎ A. Experiences of Getting Lost B. Wonderfully Getting Lost C. Causes of Getting Lost D. Physically Getting Lost C You need only look at a professional cyclist to appreciate the potential effects of cycling on the body. But what about the mind? It's a question that has long challenged anyone who has wondered how riding a bike can offer what feels close to a state of emptying your mind.‎ Dr, John Ratey believes cycling increases "the chemistry in your brain that makes you feel calm/* and that carrying out multiple operations while cycling can be an effective treatment. As was shown in a German study involving 115 children, half of them did cycling that involved complex movements, while the rest performed more straightforward exercises with the same aerobic （有氧的） demands. Both groups did well in concentration tests, but the "complex" group did a lot better.‎ There have been other interesting findings too* In 2013, Dr. Jay Alberts rode a tandem bicycle, a bicycle built for two riders sitting one behind the other, across the American state of Ohio with a friend who has Parkinson's disease, a condition effecting the nervous system. The idea was to raise awareness of the disease, but to' the surprise of both riders, the patient showed significant improvements. Dr. Jay Alberts then scanned the brains of 26 Parkinson's patients during and after an eight-week exercise programme using bikes. Half the patients were allowed to ride at their own paces, while the others were pushed harder. All patients improved, and the group which was pushed harder showed particularly significant increases in connectivity ‎ between areas of intelligence responsible for functions such as walking and picking things up.‎ We don't know how this happens, but there is more evidence of the link between Parkinson and cycling. A video on the Internet shows a 58-year-old man with severe Parkinson's. At first, we watch the patient trying to walk. He can barely stand and his hands shake uncontrollably. Then we see the man on a bicycle being supported by others. With a push, he's off, cycling past cars with perfect balance. Doctors don't fully understand this discrepancy either, but say that cycling may act as some sort of action that helped the patient's brain.‎ The science of cycling is incomplete, but perhaps the most remarkable thing for the everyday rider is that it can require no conscious focus at all）. The mindlessness of cycling can not only make us happier, but also leave room for other thoughts. On the seat of my bike, I've solved problems at work and made life decisions, as, I'm sure, have countless others.‎ ‎28. What does the study described in Paragraph 2 suggest?‎ A. Cycling has a good effect on physical fitness.‎ B. The tasks involved in cycling can be hard for children.‎ C. Lack of exercise like cycling causes lack of concentration.‎ D. Cycling can improve the ability to focus attention on a task.‎ ‎29. Studies of people with Parkinson's show that .‎ A. cycling does more good if sufferers put more effort into it B. cycling on tandem bikes has a better effect on the disease C. not every person with Parkinson's will benefit from cycling D. social awareness is more important for Parkinson's sufferers ‎30. What does the underlined part "this discrepancy" in Paragraph 4 refer to?‎ A. Why Parkinson's affects some people and not others.‎ B. Why someone with Parkinson's can cycle but not walk,‎ C. How cycling could be included in treatment for Parkinson's.‎ D. How a link between cycling and Parkinson's was discovered.‎ ‎31. What's the main idea of the passage?‎ A. The effect of cycling is not yet fully understood.‎ B. Cycling is believed to be both complex and mindless.‎ C. Cycling has a significant influence on people's mind.‎ D. People may be more, intelligent with the help of cycling.‎ D Terrible working conditions have a long tradition. Early industry was marked by its dirty, ‎ dangerous factories. In the early 20th century workers were forced into dull, repetitive tasks by the needs of the production line. However, in a service-based economy, it makes sense that focusing on worker morale might be a much, more fruitful approach.‎ Proving this is more difficult. But that is the aim of a new study targeting workers at British Telecom. Three academics— Clement of Erasmus University, Rotterdam^ of Oxford and George Ward of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology-surveyed 1,800 sales workers at 11 British call centres. All each employee had to do was click on a simple emoji each week to indicate their level of happiness. Those workers were charged with selling customers broadband, telephone and television deals. In total the authors collected adequate responses from 1,161 people over a six -month period.‎ The results were striking. Workers made 13% more sales in weeks when they were happy than when they were unhappy. This was not because they were working longer hours; in happy weeks, they made more calls per hour and were more efficient at turning those calls into sales* The tricky part, however, is determining the direction of causation （因果关系）.Workers may be happier when they are selling more because they expect a bigger bonus.‎ The academics tried a clever way to get round this causation problem by examining a very British issue-the weather. Workers turned out to be less happy on days when the weather in their local area was bad and this unhappiness converted into lower sales. Since they were making national calls, not local ones, it is unlikely that customer unhappiness with the weather was driving the sales numbers. So it was worker mood driving sales, not the other way round.‎ Even if this reasoning proves to be correct, businesses may not find it of comfort. The academics point out that "what we are not able to do is making an official decision as to whether investing in improving employee happiness makes good business sense". It is possible that the costs of such investment might outweigh any gains in productivity.‎ More research is clearly needed. But there is evidence that happier workers are： good news for shareholders （持股人），as well as productivity. Analysts found the firms where workers gave the best reviews easily outperformed those where employees gave a thumbs down.‎ ‎32. According to the passage, worker morale means .‎ A. enthusiasm and cheerfulness B. companions and colleagues C. competence and productivity D. income and welfare ‎33. What is the major aim of the study mentioned in paragraph 2?‎ A. To analyze the possible factors that affect work efficiency and achievement.‎ B. To test the level of satisfaction of the workers in British sales industry.‎ C. To examine the relationship between happiness and productivity of workers.‎ D. To prove that people's attitude toward life affects their work performance.‎ ‎34. The academics examined the weather to prove .‎ A. sales decline could have been driven by bad weather B. workers suffer mood swings due to weather change C. customer unhappiness may result in poor sales numbers D. sales performance is influenced by workers* mood ‎35. From the passage, we can learn that .‎ A. companies should try every means to enhance employee happiness B. employees need to have the chance to rate the companies they work for C. the workers' happiness is closely related to a company's productivity D. working conditions may have a great impact on work performance ‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选顼中有两项为 多余选项。‎ Choosing a major is a very important thing in our life.
