A geography education without actively learning how to explore places is as frustrating as teaching music lessons without sound. Besides that, in its widest sense, exploration has the potential to be one of the most enjoyable and rewarding things we humans will ever do. It can be good for developing problem-solving, teamwork, social and other vital skills. Therefore, we should be given the opportunities to learn properly how to do it.‎ The sad reality is that millions of children are socially and geographically deprived (剥夺的). Their learning environments lack the diversity of place and experience-based opportunities that they need to develop well and as a result, they will not reach their full potential.‎ There is plenty of research showing that many children have little time and space to explore, play and learn outdoors. Perhaps most shockingly, Dirt is Good conducted a survey which found that three-quarters of UK children spend less time outside than prisoners, that the amount of time children spend playing in natural places has decreased and that a fifth of children do not play outside on an average day.‎ There are a large number of good and complex reasons why parents do not let their children play (and so learn) outdoors and not overcoming these barriers comes with its own risks. Changing the parenting cultures that are overly limiting many children’s freedom will potentially need efforts of generation after generation.‎ Partially as a response to this situation, an increasing number of doctors are providing social prescriptions (处方). Instead of being offered medicine for a mental or physical illness, young patients are being prescribed time with nature, volunteering, doing sports or some other activities instead.‎ Teachers are, in many ways, in a better position to provide time and space for children to benefit from experiences that help them not only to learn, but also to be well. Teachers can spare both formal and informal time and space for exploration that helps not just children who are ill, but also those who are well to remain well or become even better.‎ ‎41.

It can be good for developing problem-solving, teamwork, social and other vital skills（除此之外，在最广泛意义上，探索有可能成为我们人类将要做的最愉快和最有回报的事情之一。它有助于培养解决问题、团队合作、社交和其他重要技能）。综合分析，文章第一段在告诉我们出外探索重要性。故选D项。‎ ‎【42题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段Perhaps most shockingly, Dirt is Good conducted a survey which found that three-quarters of UK children spend less time outside than prisoners, that the amount of time children spend playing in natural places has decreased and that a fifth of children do not play outside on an average day（也许最令人震惊的是，Dirt is Good的一项调查发现，四分之三的英国儿童在户外的时间少于囚犯，儿童在自然场所玩耍的时间减少了，五分之一的儿童平均每天不在户外玩耍）可知，英国儿童在户外玩耍的时间很少，他们急需多走出去。故选B项。‎ ‎【43题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段Changing the parenting cultures that are overly limiting many children’s freedom will potentially need efforts of generation after generation ‎（改变过度限制许多孩子自由的养育文化可能需要一代又一代的努力）可知，改变父母的养育文化需要一代又一代的努力。同时根据前文第二段提及的父母限制孩子在户外玩耍的时间不利于孩子们的成长。综合分析，改变父母的限制孩子自由的养育文化具有挑战性，但又很值得。故选C项。‎ ‎【44题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段Instead of being offered medicine for a mental or physical illness, young patients are being prescribed time with nature, volunteering, doing sports or some other activities instead（他们没有为精神或身体疾病提供药物治疗，而是规定年轻患者去大自然、做志愿者、做运动或其他活动）可知，出外游玩可以有利于身体健康。故选A项。‎ ‎【45题详解】‎ 推理判断题。综合分析文章，文章第一段提出了外出探索的重要性。然后在文章第二和第三段描述了有很多小孩子的外出自由受到了限制的现象。文章最后三段提到了改变这种现象的 方法，包括了改变父母的教养文化，医生的帮助以及老师的指导。综合分析可知，故选B项。‎ C A job is more than just a job, especially to the older generation. “It’s not the money that matters, but the sense of self-worth,” 56-year-old Cheng Wonlan said. So, every day Ms. Cheng carries a bag of parcels, letters and documents of all shapes and sizes and does her rounds in North Point. She’s a courier (快递人员).‎ Five years ago, Ms. Cheng was a nurse at a private clinic. She had worked there for almost 30 years but was made jobless when the doctor migrated ( 移 居 ). It was extremely difficult for her to find another job as a nurse. “People do not trust my ability when they learn how old I am,” she said. After two years of searching, the mother of two eventually found another nursing job. But then after two years, she quit. Why?‎ ‎“My colleagues were young and they didn’t understand me because of my age. They often asked me, ‘You are so old, what are you working for?’ I was very unhappy.” She said. So while the rest of her family left for work, she was left to lonely boredom at home. Then, one of Ms. Cheng’s neighbours told her about Employee’s Retraining Board (ERB) offering retraining courses for older people on specific occupations, such as convenience store assistants, junior clerks and so on.‎ ‎“I was interested in courier work. I didn’t think my age was a barrier because I was fit and healthy,” she said. Upon graduation from the ERB, Ms. Cheng was offered a job by the Speeding ‎ Shuttle Courier Service Company Limited. But then Ms. Cheng was caught between honour and employment. It took Ms. Cheng 24 hours to make up her mind and eventually she took heart and went off to work as a courier.‎ Ms. Cheng’s employer is delighted with her. “Ms. Cheng has been working with us for two months and has shown a good responsible attitude to work.” Anthony Chong, who runs the company, said. Mr. Chong said he hired older people because they were able and reliable. “Age is not an important factor but attitude is. Many old people are more capable than youngsters. They will not run from difficulties but young ones will,” he said. “It is not easy to recruit (招募) young people since they shy away from hardship and challenges.”‎ ‎46. Why was it difficult for Ms. Cheng to find another nursing job?‎ A. Nursing clinics were hard to find.‎ B. She found it difficult to trust others.‎ C. People thought she was too old to work.‎ D.

Cicero agreed. Two thousand years passed, and facial expressions are still commonly thought to be a universally valid way to judge other people’s feelings, irrespective of age, sex and culture. A raised eyebrow suggests confusion. A smile indicates happiness.‎ Or do they? An analysis of hundreds of research papers that examined the relationship between facial expressions and underlying ( 潜在的) emotions has uncovered a surprising conclusion: there is no good scientific evidence to suggest that there are such things as recognizable facial expressions for basic emotions which are universal across cultures. Just because a person is not smiling, the researchers found, does not mean that person is unhappy.‎ This may raise questions about the efforts of information-technology companies to develop artificial-intelligence algorithms (算法) which can recognize facial expressions and work out a person’s underlying emotional state. Microsoft, for example, claims its “Emotion API” is able to detect what people are feeling by examining video footage of them. Another of the study’s authors, however, expressed scepticism. Aleix Martinez, a computer engineer at Ohio State University, said that companies attempting to obtain emotions from images of faces have failed to understand the importance of context.‎ For a start, facial expression is but one of a number of non-verbal ways, such as body posture, that people use to communicate with each other. Machine recognition of emotion needs to take account of these as well. But context can reach further than that. Dr Martinez mentioned an experiment in which participants were shown a close-up picture of a man’s face, which was bright red with his mouth open in a scream. Based on this alone, most participants said the man was extremely angry. Then the whole picture was shown. It was a football player with his arms outstretched, celebrating a goal. His angry-looking face was, in fact, a show of pure joy.‎ Given that people cannot guess each other’s emotional states most of the time, Dr Martinez sees no reason computers would be able to. “There are companies right now claiming to be able to ‎ do that and apply this to places I find really scary and dangerous, for example, in hiring people,” he says. “Some companies require you to present a video resume, which is analyzed by a machine-learning system. And depending on your facial expressions, they hire you or not, which I find really shocking.”‎ ‎51. We can learn from the second paragraph that ______.‎ A. facial expressions are universal across cultures B. it is hard to recognize some facial expressions C. emotions and facial expressions may not be related D common facial expressions convey similar meanings ‎52. In the passage, the word “scepticism” (paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to “______”.‎ A. great doubt B. similar interest C. fierce anger D. strong support ‎53. The experiment mentioned by Dr Martinez may prove that .‎ A. facial expression is an important way to communicate B. machine recognition of emotion is not reliable at all C. facial expression is not the only way to detect feelings D. people may misread facial expressions for lack of context ‎54. According to the text, which of the following statements is correct?‎ A. Facial expressions differ from person to person.‎ B. People with red face must be feeling extremely angry.‎ C. Artificial-intelligence algorithms can always work out a person’s inner emotional state.‎ D. Unbelievable to Dr Martinez is that job offers are decided by a machine-learning system.‎ ‎55. What does this passage mainly tell us?‎ A. Facial expressions are among the most universal forms of body language.‎ B. Computers can detect people’s mind by analyzing their facial expressions.‎ C. Facial expressions may not be the reliable reflection of a person’s emotions.‎ D. Companies can depend on machine recognition of emotion to hire people.‎ ‎【答案】51. C 52. A 53. D 54. D 55.

And depending on your facial expressions, they hire you or not, which I find really shocking. 有些公司要求你出示一份视频简历，由机器学习系统进行分析。根据你的面部表情，他们雇佣你还是不雇佣你，我觉得这真的很令人震惊。可知，马丁内斯博士难以置信工作机会是由机器学习系统决定的。故选D项。‎ ‎【55题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据第二段“there is no good scientific evidence to suggest that there are such things as recognizable facial expressions for basic emotions which are universal across cultures. Just because a person is not smiling, the researchers ‎ found, does not mean that person is unhappy.没有足够的科学证据能够表明，跨文化的基本情绪均有可识别的面部表情。研究人员发现，一个人没有微笑并不代表他不快乐。”C项“面部表情可能不是一个人情绪的可靠反映。”符合文章主要内容。故选C项。‎ 第II卷 注意事项：‎ ‎1.用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。‎ ‎2.本卷共6小题，共35分。‎ 第三部分：写作 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。‎ ‎“Tennis – I’m saying goodbye.” With these words, Russian tennis superstar Maria Sharapova, 32, has announced her retirement.‎ ‎“How do you leave behind the only life you’ve ever known?” she asked herself.
