Disadvanta

8、ged kids have been the most likely to be shortchanged (克扣). According to a 2003 study, just 56 percent of children living at or below the poverty line had break, compared with 83 percent of those above the poverty line; a similar disparity (差异) existed between black children and their white peers.Th

9、e benefits of break might seem obvious time to run around helps kids stay fit. But a large body of research suggests that it also promotes cognition (认知). Many studies have found that regular exercise improves mental function and academic performance. And an analysis of studies that focused specific

10、ally on break found positive associations between physical activity and the ability to concentrate in class.In one series of experiments, researchers controlled break start times. Some days children were let out at 10 am., and other days at 10：30. The kids attentiveness decreased when they had to wa

11、it longer for break, and refreshed themselves after they played. And when fourthgraders in a breakfree school were given a weekly break, another group of researchers found that they had an easier time staying on task and were much less restless. These experimental findings are supported by an analys

BPoor school management. CAbsence of education laws. DInequality among students. 解析：选A细节理解题。根据第一段的内容可知，她们想要通过的法律是为了保障孩子们每

15、天课外活动的时间，故原因是孩子们现在缺少户外活动的时间。4In one series of experiments, researchers find that _. Achildren behave better when let out earlier Bkids waiting longer are unable to stay focused again Cthirdgraders have difficulty in focusing on task Dfourthgraders are more concentrated without a break 解析：选A细节理解题。根据第

16、四段的第三句“The kids attentiveness decreased when they had to wait longer for break, and refreshed themselves after they played.”可知，当孩子们不得不等待更长的时间才能休息时，他们的注意力下降了，所以被更早放出去活动的学生表现更好。5What can we infer if we can ensure children a certain amount of daily break? AThey escape from life conflicts. BThey may str

17、engthen dependence. CThey are more considerate towards others. DThey are eager to manage complicated situations. 解析：选C推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句中的“children who are given four 15minute breaks a day are significantly more sympathetic toward their peers than are kids who dont get break”可知，研究表明，每天休息4个15分钟的小学生比没有休

18、息的孩子对同龄人更有同情心。所以他们对他人也更加体贴。C(2019盐城模拟)One day in 1995, a large, heavy middleaged man robbed two Pittsburgh banks in broad daylight. He didnt wear a mask and he smiled at surveillance cameras before walking out of each bank. Later that night, police arrested a surprised McArthur Wheeler. When they sh

19、owed him the surveillance tapes, Wheeler stared in disbelief.“But I wore the juice，” he mumbled. Apparently, Wheeler thought that rubbing lemon juice on his skin would make him invisible to videotape cameras. After all, lemon juice is used as invisible ink so, as long as he didnt come near a heat so

20、urce, he should have been completely invisible.The case caught the eye of the psychologist David Dunning at Cornell University, who enlisted his graduate student, Justin Kruger, to see what was going on. They reasoned that, while almost everyone holds favourable views of their abilities in various s

21、ocial and intellectual fields, some people mistakenly assess their abilities as being much higher than they actually are. This “illusion of confidence” is now called the“DunningKruger effect”，and describes the cognitive bias to inflate selfassessment.To investigate this phenomenon in the lab, Dunnin

22、g and Kruger designed some clever experiments. In one study, they asked undergraduate students a series of questions about grammar, logic and jokes, and then asked each student to estimate his or her score overall, as well as their relative rankings compared to the other students. Interestingly, stu

23、dents who scored the lowest in these cognitive tasks always overestimated how well they did by a lot. Students who scored in the bottom estimated that they had performed better than twothirds of the other students! Sure, its typical for people to overestimate their abilities. The problem is that whe

24、n people are incompetent, not only do they reach wrong conclusions and make unfortunate choices, but also they are robbed of the ability to realize their mistakes. In a semesterlong study of college students, good students could better predict their performance on future exams given feedback about t

25、heir scores and rankings. However, the poorest performers showed no recognition, despite clear and repeated feedback that they were doing badly. Instead of being confused or thoughtful about their incorrect ways, incompetent people insist that their ways are correct. As Charles Darwin wrote in The D

26、escent of Man (1871): “Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.”Interestingly, really smart people also fail to accurately selfassess their abilities. As much as D and Fgrade students overestimate their abilities, Agrade students underestimate theirs. The difference is that c

27、ompetent people can and do adjust their selfassessment given appropriate feedback, while incompetent individuals cannot.语篇解读：本文主要阐述了“邓宁克鲁格效应”。研究表明有能力的人会根据各方面的反馈来调整自己的思路，而无知的人往往看不到自己的不足，盲目自信，固执己见。6Which of the following statements about the DunningKruger effect is true? AThe effect is true for everyo

28、ne in daily life. BIt suggests that most people lack cognitive abilities. CSome people are overconfident about their abilities. DThe conclusion is drawn based on a series of bank robberies. 解析：选C细节理解题。根据第二段的内容，尤其是“some people mistakenly assess their abilities as being much higher than they actually

29、are”可知，邓宁克鲁格效应指的是那些过度高估自己能力的、过度自信的人。7What do the college students behaviors mentioned in the experiments prove? AFeedback plays a significant role in estimating ones ability. BIncompetent people have a rigid attitude towards their choice. CGood students can predict their future performance accuratel

30、y. DPeople cant rely on their previous behavior to make adjustments. 解析：选B细节理解题。根据第四段倒数第二句“Instead of being confused or thoughtful about their incorrect ways, incompetent people insist that their ways are correct.”可知，能力差的人不会去反思自己的不正确的方法，而是坚持他们的方法是正确的。所以说他们非常的固执。8The underlined word“begets”can be rep

31、laced by _. Agives rise to Btakes advantage of Cmakes up for Dbreaks away from 解析：选A词义猜测题。引用查尔斯达尔文作品中的话是对上面的研究结果进行归纳总结。上面的研究表明无知的人更加盲目地自信。所以这句话的意思是“无知比知识更容易产生自信。”begetgive rise to“产生”。9What can we infer from the passage? AReal knowledge is knowing the extent of ones ignorance. BIt is difficult for p

32、eople to evaluate their real competence. CIllusion of confidence is the major source of peoples failure. DThose with great abilities often have a low opinion of themselves. 解析：选A推理判断题。本文主要阐述了“邓宁克鲁格效应”。研究表明有能力的人会根据各方面的反馈来调整自己的思路，而无知的人往往看不到自己的不足，盲目自信，固执己见。所以真正的知识是了解一个人无知的程度。D(2019南通七市模拟)UN scholars have calculated that within the next 10 years the d
