Why India’s ‘Pink City’ is a Photographer’s Heaven

The city of Jaipur is one of India’s wonders. It __31__ some of the country’s most decorative royal palaces—elegant structures designed hundreds of years ago that still attract visitors today. Largely built in the 1700s, Jaipur is surrounded by a city wall and several __32__ castles. Considered as a commercial center, it was ahead of its time due to the use of grid iron（网格状）city planning.

A romantic dusty pink type—which has __33__ the city since 1876, after it was painted pink to welcome Queen Victoria’s husband, Prince Albert—gives Jaipur its __34__ as the “Pink City”. This __35__ beauty is what first brought Hong Kong-based photographers Victor Cheng and Samantha Wong to Jaipur.

Walking in glass skyscrapers for century-old royal palaces and historic castles, the pair—who have 130,000 Instagram followers between them—said that the images they __36__ in Jaipur received a lot of response online. “A lot of our followers hadn’t seen this side of India, so we’re happy we were able to show this side of the country.” Cheng said.

For the photographers, one of the city’s most fascinating fe atures is the light pink coloring of its buildings. “The first gates you see when you enter are pink,” said Wong. “Once you’re through, everything around you varies in different __37__ of the color—from bright pinks to reddish browns.”

The building is a(n) __38__ of the City Palace, and its windows allowed royal women to observe street life without appearing in public. One of Cheng’s most striking photos shows a straight f ront of the building and its hundreds of windows. The building’s lively coloring also pushed Cheng to take a different __39__ to editing than with images of other cities. “I toned down my usual editing process because the pink was so bright in reality,” he said, “I wanted the photos to __40__ the actual color I was seeing myself and to maintain its tone.”

III. Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

Concerns about the harm caused by “too much” screen time—particularly when it is spent on social media—are widespread. But working out what a “healthy” __41__ might be is far from easy.

Some negative experiences on social media—like __42__ how your appearance compares to others—do affect some children. However, this does not mean that technology use in __43__ is harmful and it is difficult to make claims about how it will affect different people.

Consider the picture painted by a UNICEF review of existing research into the effects of digital technology on children’s __44__ comfort, including hap piness, mental health and social life. Rather than stating that social media was harmful, it suggested a more __45__ effect.

The UNICEF report highlighted a 2017 study that examined 120,000 UK 15-year-olds. Among those teenagers who were the lightest users, it was found that increasing the time spent using technology was linked to __46__ comfort—possibly because it was important for keeping up friendships. __47__, among the heaviest users of technology, any increase in time was linked to lower levels of comfort. Overall, the UNICEF study suggested that some screen time could be good for children’s mental health.

A broader look at evidence provided by some other high quality studies again suggests the story is not __48__. An early study in 2013 looked at how the television and video game habits of 11,000 UK five-year-olds affected them two years later. It is one of few studies actually __49__ the effects of technology over time. It suggested that, compared with children who watched one hour of television or less on a weekday, a small increase in conduct problems was seen among those who watched more than three hours each day. Playing electronic games, however, was not seen as leading to a greater __50__ of friendship or emotional problems.

So how much time should our children spend looking at screens? It is difficult to be __51__ as different people spend time online in such different ways. A useful comparison might be with sugar. Broadly speaking, people __52__ that too much sugar can be bad for your health. But the effect it might have can depend on many factors, from the type of sugar to the person and the amount. We would not __53__ trust anyone who claims to predict how someone is affected by consuming one gram of sugar. The same could be said for __54__ usage: the outcomes depend on so many factors that only very __55__ predictions are possible.

41. A. amount B. comparison C. experience D. medium

42. A. accounting for B. boasting of C. commenting on D. worrying about

43. A. general B. particular C. private D. public

44. A. domestic B. material C. physical D. psychological

Section B

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

(A)

The cold northern wind here in the streets of Petersburg strengthens my nerves and fills me with delight.

I cannot think of the Pole as cold and empty; in my imagination it is a region of beauty and delight. Who knows what strange landscapes and creatures we may find there? I shall satisfy my curiosity with the sight of an unknown part of the world, and walk where no man has before. Thinking of it, I feel the same joy a child feels when he sails his little boat on a voyage of discovery up his native river.

This voyage was the favorite dream of my early years. My education was neglected, yet I was passionately fond of reading. Uncle Thomas’s library contained only books about exploration, which I read day and night. Finally, my thoughts comes to the idea of making a voyage of discovery.

Six years have passed since I decided on the present voyage. I can, even now, remember the hour when I committed myself to this great enterprise. I began by making my body used to hardship. I went on whale hunting voyages to the North Sea; I voluntarily endured cold, hunger, thirst, and lack of sleep. I often worked harder than the common sailors during the day. Then, at nights, I studied mathematics, the theory of medicine, and sciences of practical importance for a sea-going adventurer. Twice I took jobs as an officer on a Greenland whaling ship. I felt a little proud when my captain asked me to remain with the ship, so valuable did he consider my services. And now, do I not deserve to achieve some great task? My life might have been passed in ease and comfort, but I preferred glory to every pleasure that wealth placed in my path.

56. What does the author think of the Pole?

A. It reminds him of his childhood.

B. It must be a region full of surprises.

C. It would fulfil his dream to be an adventurer.

D. It’s too cold a destination with almost nothing.

57. To realize his childhood dream, the author got _____.

A. physically prepared by experiencing great suffering

B. spiritually prepared by gaining captain’s recognition

C. academically prepared by reading books on exploration

D. financially prepared by serving on a whale hunting ship

58. According to the passage, the author is definitely a person full of _____.

A. curiosity

B. fancy

C. perseverance

D. pride

(C)

All across America, students are anxiously finishing their “What I Want To Be …” college application essays, advised to focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) by experts and parents who insist that’s the only way to become workforce ready. But two recent studies of workplace success contradict the traditional wisdom about “hard skills”.

Google originally set its hiring systems to sort for computer science students with top grades from top science universities. In 2013, Google decided to test its hiring theory by quickly dealing with large amounts hiring, firing, and promotion data collected since the company’s establishment.

Project Oxygen shocked everyone by concluding that, among the eight most important qualities of Google’s top employees, STEM capability comes in dead last. The seven top characteristics of success at Google are all soft skills: being a good coach; communicating and listening well; possessing comprehension into others; being supportive of one’s colleagues; being a good critical thinker and problem solver; and being able to make connections across complex ideas.

Those characteristics sound more like what one gains as an English or theater major than as a programmer. Could it be that top Google employees were succeeding despite their technical training, not because of it? After bringing in more experts to dive even deeper into the data, the company enlarged its previous hiring practices to include humanities majors, artists, and even the MBAs (Master of Business Adminstration).

Project Aristotle, a study released by Google this past spring, further supports the importance of soft skills even in high-tech environments. Project Aristotle analyzes data on inventive and productive teams. Google takes pride in its A-teams, assembled with top scientists, each with the most specialized knowledge and able to throw down one creative idea after another. Its data analysis revealed, however, that the company’s most important and productive new ideas come from B-teams comprised of employees who don’t always have to be the smartest people in the room.

Project Aristotle shows that the best teams at Google exhibit a range of soft skills: equality, generosity, curiosity toward the ideas of your teammates, understanding, and emotional intelligence. And topping the list: emotional safety. To succeed, each and every team member must feel confident speaking up and making mistakes. They must know they are being heard.

STEM skills are vital to the world we live in today, but technology alone, as Steve Jobs famously insisted, is not enough. We desperately need those who are educated to the human, cultural, and social as well as the computational.

63. The underlined word “contradict” most probably means “_____”.

A. add to

B. back up

C. bring about

D. conflict with

64. Google conducted the studies of workplace success in order to _____.

A. determine what makes a workplace-ready student

B. check whether its hiring system serves the purpose

C. prove soft skills are more important than hard ones

D. impress its competitors with the employees’ excellence

65. What can be inferred from Project Aristotle?

A. Emotional safety enables people to express themselves freely.

B. Listening and hearing helps develop problem-solving abilities.

C. Learning from mistakes doesn’t necessarily mean improvement.

D. Those without specialized knowledge can also make inventions.

66. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. STEM skills our society needs for better education

B. The principal focus students have on application essays

C. The surprising thing Google learned about its employees

D. The soft skills Google programmers lack for career growth

Section C

Directions:Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

For Self-driving Cars, Car Washes are a Nightmare

Car washes have been automated for decades, but companies developing fully self-driving vehicles must rely on a human touch to keep their cars and trucks in working condition.

__67__ For example, soap remainder or water spots could effectively “blind” a self-driving car. A traditional car wash’s heavy brushes could jar the vehicle’s sensors, disturbing their standardization and accuracy. Even worse, sensors, which can cost over $100,000, could be broken. __68__ Dirt, dead bugs, bird droppings or water spots can impact the vehicle’s ability to drive safely.

Avis, which has years of experience managing rental cars, has been tasked with cleaning and refueling the self-driving vans of Waymo, the self-driving arm of Google’s parent company. Avis chief innovation officer Arthur Ordu?a to ld CNN, “There are special processes that definitely require a lot more care and focus, and you have to clean the vans quite often.”

__69__ But other self-driving car companies such as Toyota, Aptiv, Drive, AI and Uber described to CNN that they use microfiber (微纤维) cloths along with rubbing alcohol, water or glass cleaner for manual cleanings.

__70__ This should ease some need for manual cleaning. But because self-driving vehicles can have dozens of sensors, Seeva CEO Diane Lansinger doesn’t imagine products like this will be able to clean every camera, radar or LIDAR, a laser sensor that most experts see as essential for self-driving vehicles.

IV．Summary Writing

Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

The Dangerous Downsides of Perfectionism

In one of my earlie st memories, I’m drawing. I don’t remember what the picture is supposed to be, but I remember the mistake. My marker slips, an unintentional line appears and my lip trembles. The picture has long since disappeared. But that feeling of deep frustration, even shame, stays with me.

That’s the thing about perfectionism, a crucially self-defeating way to move through the world. It makes you better at your career and relationships and life in general. Culturally, we often see perfectionism as a positive.

But the disadvantage of perfectionism isn’t just that it holds you back from being your most successful, productive-self. Perfectionistic tendencies have been linked to a long list of clinical issues: depression, social anxiety disorder, eating disorders, and most damaging of all, suicide (自杀).

“Based upon the 60-odd studies that we’ve done, the higher the perfectionism is, the more psychological disorders you’re going to suffer,” says York St John University’s Hill. “Factors often labeled ‘healthy’ perfectionism, like striving for excellence, aren’t actually pe rfectionism at all. They’re just conscientiousness(尽职尽责)—which explains why people with those tendencies often have different results in studies. Perfectionism isn’t interpreted by working hard or setting high goals. It’s that critical inner voice.”

Take the student who works hard and gets a poor mark. If she tells herself, “I’m disappointed, but it’s okay; I’m still a good person overall,” that’s healthy. If the message is, “I’m a failure. I’m not good enough,” that’s perfectionism.

Perfectionists can make smooth sailing into a storm, a brief ill wind into a category-five hurricane. Eventually, the behaviours perfectionists adapt, actually, do make them more likely to fail.
