There
is
no
doubt
that
communityresponsibility
plays
an
indispensable
role
in
personal
development, for instance, in the workplace.

There
are
several
factors
accounting
for
this
perspective
and
the
following
are
the
most
typical ones. First and foremost, a strong sense of community responsibility is helpful to develop
harmonious interpersonal relationships. As we all know, we are very likely to spend more time
with our colleagues than our families after entering the workplace. Therefore, the sound working
atmosphere
and
interpersonal
relationships
among employees
are
crucial
to
both physical
and
mental pleasure. In addition, communityresponsibility can improve efficiency. In the fast-paced
modern society, time is money and efficiency holds the key to saving time. As the saying goes,
two heads are better than one. So great importance should be attached to the cultivation of the
sense of communityresponsibility and we will eventually benefit from it.

From
what
has
been
mentioned
above,
we
can
come to
the
conclusion
that
the
sense
of
communityresponsibility is a kind of good personal quality, which deserves our attention.

毫无疑问，集体责任在个人发展中起着不可或缺的作用，例如在工作场所。

支持这一 观点的原因有很多，
但以下原因是最典型的。
首先，
强烈的社区责任感有助于
培养和谐的人际关系。
我们都知道，
进入职场后，
与同事相处的时间很可能比与家人相 处的
时间更多。
因此，
良好的工作氛围和员工之间的人际关系对大家的身心愉悦至关重 要。
此外，
集体责任意识可以提高效率。
在快节奏的现代社会，
时间就是金钱 ，
而效率是节约时间的关
键。俗话说，三个臭皮匠，顶个诸葛亮。因此，我们应该高度重视集体 责任感的培养，而且
我们自己将最终会从中受益。

综上所述，我们可以得出结论，集体责任感是一种良好的个人品质，值得我们的关注。

Reading Comprehension
















(40 minutes)
Section A
Directions:
In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word
for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage
through
carefully
before
making
your
choices. Each
choice
in
the
bank
is
identified
by
a
letter.
Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on
Answer Sheet 2
with a single line through
the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.

Questions 26 to 35 are based on the following passage.
The number of devices you can talk to is multiplying
—
first it was your phone, then your car,
and
now
you
can
tell
your
kitchen
appliances
what
to
do.
But
even
without
gadgets
that
understand our spoken commands, research suggests that, as bizarre as it sounds, under certain
26

, people regularly ascribe human traits to everyday objects.
Sometimes we see things as human because we are

27

. In one experiment, people who
reported feeling isolated were more likely than others to attribute

28

to various gadgets. In
turn, feeling close to objects can

29

loneliness. When college students were reminded of a
time they had been

30

in a social setting, they compensated by exaggerating their number of
friends
—
unless they were first given tasks that caused them to interact with their phone as if it
had
human
qualities.
According
to
the
researchers,
the
participants'
phones

31

substituted
for real friends.
At other times, we personify products in an effort to understand them. One study found that
three in four respondents yelled at their computer. Further, the more their computer gave them
problems,
the
more
likely
the
respondents
were
to
report
that
it
had
its
own
“
beliefs
and

32

.
”

So how do people assign traits to an object In part, we rely on looks. On humans, wide faces
are

33

with dominance. Similarly, people rated cars, clocks, and watches with wide faces as
more
dominant-looking
than
narrow-faced
ones,
and
preferred
them
—
especially
in

34

situations.
An
analysis
of
car
sales
in
Germany
found
that
cars
with
gills

(
护栅
)
that
were
upturned like smiles sold best. The purchasers saw this

35

as increasing a car's friendliness.
A) alleviate



I) desires
B) apparently



J) excluded
C) arrogant




K) feature
D) associated



L) lonely
E) circumstances


M) separate

[A]
Though
he
didn

t
come
from
a
farming
family,
from
a
young
age
Tim
Joseph
was
fascinated by the idea of living off the land. Reading magazines like The Stockman Grass Farmer
and Graze, he got hooked on the idea of grass- fed agriculture. The idea that all energy and wealth
comes from the sun really intrigued him He thought the shorter the distance between the sun
and the end product, the higher the profit to the farmer.

[B] Joseph wanted to put this theory to the test. In 2009, he and his wife Laura launched
Maple Hill Creamery, an organic, all grass-fed yogurt company in northern New York. He quickly
learned
what
the
market
has
demonstrated:
Demand
for
grass-fed
products
currently
exceeds
supply. Grass-fed beef is enjoying a 25-30% annual growth rate. Sales of grass-fed yogurt and kefir
