1.单选题
今天语法题起码有八九题，非谓语、虚拟语气、从句、代词就是比较基础的，词汇也不难，不超过专八，但是总体来说单选还是需要仔细理解句意 的。
2.阅读，单选题比较简单，第一篇讲的是运动员应该休息好，接受康复训练更好的回到赛场；第二篇讲全球生育率下降。简答题有点难度，一道题上来就是paraphrase。一篇讲的是丹麦人的集体意识和社会责任，第一道问答题让你paraphrase一句话，有点难这个，我写的不太好；第二题让你expain某个人讲的一句话是什么意思，结合上下文还是很好理解的；第三道题问作者为什么要introduce一个人的事迹；；第二篇问答题讲的是一份研究发现drinking coffee能够有效降低heart failure的风险，第一题让你说这个研究发现的unexpected results 是什么，summarize two of them。第二道题问这个研究的特点和不足之处是什么，也是分别列两点。

翻译硕士英语：

时间很紧，基本上所有的题⽬都是⼀遍过的，没有第⼆遍过的机会。

词汇选择题：

有⼀点点的难，语法题考了词汇题词汇题偏多有，有虚拟从句、倒装句、非限制定语从句、 被动语态，基本没有时态题；not only ,deprive 时态+语态，总体来说 ，单选题的词汇题 ，不是⼀眼可以看出答案的，要分析句子结构成分才能选出答案，或者凭个别词汇来判断，有点像蓝皮书上 2017 给的托福词汇题

4篇阅读：

基本上是在第⼀遍做的时候就选定了答案，因为四篇⽂章基本上每篇的篇幅都比较长，但是 词汇和结构都还好，不是很难理解。

第 1、2 篇文章：每篇文章都是 5个选择题

第 1 篇文章：讲的人⼀个奥运运动员，在遇到瓶颈的时候，没有选择高强度的训练，而是适当的运动+修炼不断地调整自己的心态，主题就是在运动准备中，心态和运动都是很重要的，以往在所有的体育比赛中，所有的⼈都只注重训练运动的强度，而忽视了心理的建设。

第 3 篇文章：3 个问答题

讲的是⼀个丹麦米其林大厨在疫情期间开始做⼀些性价比的套餐，说是为了帮助城市里⼀些 弱势群体和帮助的人（找了半天也没有找到说是免费赠送，只说了是 down-to-earth meal）, 由这个大厨的故事引出了最近丹麦很火的两个词汇（原文用的是丹麦语，不知道是什么意思，

但是用英语做了解释，大概就是说这两个词汇表达的是在疫情期间，丹麦人彼此之间相互帮助的行为方式和心态特点），大概就跟我们社会中的⼀些网络用词⼀样，然后说这些词之前都沉寂了，没人使用了，是丹麦的总理在⼀场演讲中提到了，社会又开始使用了。从厨子一 词语。

问题：

1.作者为什么要⽤这个厨⼦的故事作为开头？

2.解释文章中提出的“以前我们要聚在⼀起寻求团结，但是现在我们要 keep apart to seek community ”是什么意思？

3.不记得了

第 4 篇⽂章：2 个问答题是关于⼼脏病，咖啡、和 machine learning 。由⼼脏病的研究引入到咖啡的话题，说引起心 脏病的因素很多，但是发现了咖啡的特殊性（好像是咖啡可以降低⼼脏病的危险），于是在整个研究过程中，引入了 machine learning 的新的实验⼿段，然后分析了这种新方法的利弊，但是篇幅不多。

到文章的最后，又回到咖啡的话题，终其结论，就是没有结论，研究团队也不知道咖啡到底

对⼼脏病有什么影响，⼀天喝几杯他们也不知道。所以就是研究了个寂寞。

问题：

1.分析⼀下这种 machine learning 研究方法的利弊，各举出 2点

2.在这个研究中，让人意想不到的咖啡会引起的功效后果是什么，举出 2 点

作文：

主体：⽹络教育的隐私问题

形式：跟专八⼀样，先是给出⼀段材料（⼤概占了⼀半的 A4 纸篇幅，大概 400 字左右），需要总结材料，然后再提出⾃⼰的观点，题目自拟，400 字要求

难度：文章阅读有⼀丢丢难度，着急的话，看第⼀遍可能不太能理解中⼼思想，得认真仔细 地分析出结构。

总体感觉：

时间紧

阅读量⼤

材料都不简单，语法结构较难，需引起注意！

Don’t Be Afraid to Quit. It Could Help You Win
Source：2021.8 12 The New York Times
（未贴上全文，感兴趣可以自己去康康）
The marathoner Molly Seidel has always been a formidable athlete, but her ascent to the Olympic medal podium was not linear. She skipped the 2016 U.S. Olympic trials to check into treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder, depression, anxiety and disordered eating.
“My head wasn’t in the right place, even though I was running really fast,” the 27-year-old from Wisconsin told me days after winning the bronze medal in the women’s marathon at the Tokyo Olympics. “I just couldn’t keep going the way that I was going.”
Seidel thought her career might be over back in 2016, when she was just 22. Treatment changed everything. She became a better athlete than ever. She qualified for the Olympics last year, in the first marathon she’d ever raced. And when she crossed the finish line last weekend, she screamed with joy. She was the third American woman in history to win an Olympic medal in the marathon.
In a world that rewards constant momentum and toughness, Seidel’s breakthrough was a case study in the value of patience and self care. Despite the conventional wisdom that the career of a professional athlete should be an unbroken upward trajectory to peak performance, Seidel stepped away to prioritize her health, recovered, and came back stronger.
Many of the most storied moments in Olympics history are simplified examples of athletes pushing past pain, injury and mental exhaustion to compete. Who can forget Kerri Strug, the American gymnast who in 1996 vaulted on an injured ankle, then was carried off the mat to receive her medal? But the enduring narrative of this most recent Olympics was athletes choosing to protect their health instead of sacrificing it to compete.
The gymnast Simone Biles was the most prominent example, when she declined to compete after experiencing a bad case of “the twisties.” But top athletes across global competitions this year spoke openly about stepping back from competition to recalibrate. The British cricketer Ben Stokes recently announced an “indefinite break” from the game to prioritize his mental health; the tennis star Naomi Osaka dropped out of the French Open amid a controversy over her decision to opt out of stressful news conferences; and the British swimmer Adam Peaty celebrated winning two gold medals and one silver medal in Tokyo with the announcement that he’s taking a month off to take care of himself.
Seidel’s Olympic performance vindicates this approach: Giving yourself time to heal and rest is not just the compassionate thing to do for your health. It can also be also the smartest strategy for success. “There’s a very old school idea of this stiff upper lip that says you can do anything you set your mind to,” she told me. “But no. I appreciate that we are becoming a lot more nuanced now with seeing that mental health is physical health. They are directly correlated.”
It’s a powerful lesson in how to handle the natural derailments of life — and it’s one that resonates far beyond any athletic arena. Americans often demonize quitting, and valorize “grit” — a mythical quality that a flurry of books urged parents to instill in children over the last decade.
But how has grit served us, amid the pandemic, as Americans grind themselves to the point of quitting their jobs? We’re seeing burnout and flameout, and what the organizational psychologist Adam Grant has called “languishing.” Olympians, as the canaries for the rest of us in our professional coal mines, are alerting us to the problems of an overly goal-oriented society.
Seidel’s coach, Jon Green, says she does better in races when she’s not pushed to extremes in practice. “Does Molly have grit? Absolutely she does,” Mr. Green told me. “But at the end of the day we approach everything with balance. We make sure we’re taking care of Molly as a person, not just Molly the runner.”

Long Slide Looms for World Population, With Sweeping Ramifications
Source：2021.5.22 The New York Times
（未贴上全文，是的，原文真的很长长长！但是考试有删减，不是下面这么多，别吓到~）
All over the world, countries are confronting population stagnation and a fertility bust, a dizzying reversal unmatched in recorded history that will make first-birthday parties a rarer sight than funerals, and empty homes a common eyesore.
Maternity wards are already shutting down in Italy. Ghost cities are appearing in northeastern China. Universities in South Korea can’t find enough students, and in Germany, hundreds of thousands of properties have been razed, with the land turned into parks.
Like an avalanche, the demographic forces — pushing toward more deaths than births — seem to be expanding and accelerating. Though some countries continue to see their populations grow, especially in Africa, fertility rates are falling nearly everywhere else. Demographers now predict that by the latter half of the century or possibly earlier, the global population will enter a sustained decline for the first time.
A planet with fewer people could ease pressure on resources, slow the destructive impact of climate change and reduce household burdens for women. But the census announcements this month from China and the United States, which showed the slowest rates of population growth in decades for both countries, also point to hard-to-fathom adjustments.
The strain of longer lives and low fertility, leading to fewer workers and more retirees, threatens to upend how societies are organized — around the notion that a surplus of young people will drive economies and help pay for the old. It may also require a reconceptualization of family and nation. Imagine entire regions where everyone is 70 or older. Imagine governments laying out huge bonuses for immigrants and mothers with lots of children. Imagine a gig economy filled with grandparents and Super Bowl ads promoting procreation.
“A paradigm shift is necessary,” said Frank Swiaczny, a German demographer who was the chief of population trends and analysis for the United Nations until last year. “Countries need to learn to live with and adapt to decline.”
The ramifications and responses have already begun to appear, especially in East Asia and Europe. From Hungary to China, from Sweden to Japan, governments are struggling to balance the demands of a swelling older cohort with the needs of young people whose most intimate decisions about childbearing are being shaped by factors both positive (more work opportunities for women) and negative (persistent gender inequality and high living costs).
The 20th century presented a very different challenge. The global population saw its greatest increase in known history, from 1.6 billion in 1900 to 6 billion in 2000, as life spans lengthened and infant mortality declined. In some countries — representing about a third of the world’s people — those growth dynamics are still in play. By the end of the century, Nigeria could surpass China in population; across sub-Saharan Africa, families are still having four or five children.
But nearly everywhere else, the era of high fertility is ending. As women have gained more access to education and contraception, and as the anxieties associated with having children continue to intensify, more parents are delaying pregnancy and fewer babies are being born. Even in countries long associated with rapid growth, such as India and Mexico, birthrates are falling toward, or are already below, the replacement rate of 2.1 children per family.
The change may take decades, but once it starts, decline (just like growth) spirals exponentially. With fewer births, fewer girls grow up to have children, and if they have smaller families than their parents did — which is happening in dozens of countries — the drop starts to look like a rock thrown off a cliff.
“It becomes a cyclical mechanism,” said Stuart Gietel Basten, an expert on Asian demographics and a professor of social science and public policy at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. “It’s demographic momentum.”

Some countries, like the United States, Australia and Canada, where birthrates hover between 1.5 and 2, have blunted the impact with immigrants. But in Eastern Europe, migration out of the region has compounded depopulation, and in large parts of Asia, the “demographic time bomb” that first became a subject of debate a few decades ago has finally gone off.

South Korea’s fertility rate dropped to a record low of 0.92 in 2019 — less than one child per woman, the lowest rate in the developed world. Every month for the past 59 months, the total number of babies born in the country has dropped to a record depth.
That declining birthrate, coupled with a rapid industrialization that has pushed people from rural towns to big cities, has created what can feel like a two-tiered society. While major metropolises like Seoul continue to grow, putting intense pressure on infrastructure and housing, in regional towns it’s easy to find schools shut and abandoned, their playgrounds overgrown with weeds, because there are not enough children.

Expectant mothers in many areas can no longer find obstetricians or postnatal care centers. Universities below the elite level, especially outside Seoul, find it increasingly hard to fill their ranks — the number of 18-year-olds in South Korea has fallen from about 900,000 in 1992 to 500,000 today. To attract students, some schools have offered scholarships and even iPhones.

To goose the birthrate, the government has handed out baby bonuses. It increased child allowances and medical subsidies for fertility treatments and pregnancy. Health officials have showered newborns with gifts of beef, baby clothes and toys. The government is also building kindergartens and day care centers by the hundreds. In Seoul, every bus and subway car has pink seats reserved for pregnant women.

But this month, Deputy Prime Minister Hong Nam-ki admitted that the government — which has spent more than $178 billion over the past 15 years encouraging women to have more babies — was not making enough progress. In many families, the shift feels cultural and permanent.

“My grandparents had six children, and my parents five, because their generations believed in having multiple children,” said Kim Mi-kyung, 38, a stay-at-home parent. “I have only one child. To my and younger generations, all things considered, it just doesn’t pay to have many children.”

Thousands of miles away, in Italy, the sentiment is similar, with a different backdrop.

In Capracotta, a small town in southern Italy, a sign in red letters on an 18th-century stone building looking on to the Apennine Mountains reads “Home of School Kindergarten” — but today, the building is a nursing home.

Residents eat their evening broth on waxed tablecloths in the old theater room.

“There were so many families, so many children,” said Concetta D’Andrea, 93, who was a student and a teacher at the school and is now a resident of the nursing home. “Now there is no one.”

The population in Capracotta has dramatically aged and contracted — from about 5,000 people to 800. The town’s carpentry shops have shut down. The organizers of a soccer tournament struggled to form even one team.

About a half-hour away, in the town of Agnone, the maternity ward closed a decade ago because it had fewer than 500 births a year, the national minimum to stay open. This year, six babies were born in Agnone.

“Once you could hear the babies in the nursery cry, and it was like music,” said Enrica Sciullo, a nurse who used to help with births there and now mostly takes care of older patients. “Now there is silence and a feeling of emptiness.”

In a speech last Friday during a conference on Italy’s birthrate crisis, Pope Francis said the “demographic winter” was still “cold and dark.”

More people in more countries may soon be searching for their own metaphors. Birth projections often shift based on how governments and families respond, but according to projections by an international team of scientists published last year in The Lancet, 183 countries and territories — out of 195 — will have fertility rates below replacement level by 2100.

Their model shows an especially sharp decline for China, with its population expected to fall from 1.41 billion now to about 730 million in 2100. If that happens, the population pyramid would essentially flip. Instead of a base of young workers supporting a narrower band of retirees, China would have as many 85-year-olds as 18-year-olds.

China’s rust belt, in the northeast, saw its population drop by 1.2 percent in the past decade, according to census figures released on Tuesday. In 2016, Heilongjiang Province became the first in the country to have its pension system run out of money. In Hegang, a “ghost city” in the province that has lost almost 10 percent of its population since 2010, homes cost so little that people compare them to cabbage.

Many countries are beginning to accept the need to adapt, not just resist. South Korea is pushing for universities to merge. In Japan, where adult diapers now outsell ones for babies, municipalities have been consolidated as towns age and shrink. In Sweden, some cities have shifted resources from schools to elder care. And almost everywhere, older people are being asked to keep working. Germany, which previously raised its retirement age to 67, is now considering a bump to 69.

Going further than many other nations, Germany has also worked through a program of urban contraction: Demolitions have removed around 330,000 units from the housing stock since 2002.

And if the goal is revival, a few green shoots can be found. After expanding access to affordable child care and paid parental leave, Germany’s fertility rate recently increased to 1.54, up from 1.3 in 2006. Leipzig, which once was shrinking, is now growing again after reducing its housing stock and making itself more attractive with its smaller scale.

“Growth is a challenge, as is decline,” said Mr. Swiaczny, who is now a senior research fellow at the Federal Institute for Population Research in Germany.

Demographers warn against seeing population decline as simply a cause for alarm. Many women are having fewer children because that’s what they want. Smaller populations could lead to higher wages, more equal societies, lower carbon emissions and a higher quality of life for the smaller numbers of children who are born.

'Samfundssind': How a long-forgotten word rallied a nation
Source：2020.8.4 BBC（试题有删减）
Danish chef Rasmus Munk shocked the culinary world last year with the opening of his audacious Copenhagen restaurant Alchemist, which offers a multisensory food and entertainment experience across 50 courses and five acts. More surprising, still, was what the Michelin-starred chef did next when the pandemic brought his marathon meals to an abrupt halt on 15 March.

By 19 March, Munk had pivoted from serving 2,900kr ($450) worth of molecular gastronomy (think wood ants preserved in candy ‘amber’ and cherry-infused lamb brains) for 48 nightly guests to whipping up 600 daily portions of down-to-earth staples (such as pasta carbonara and chicken puff pie) for Copenhagen’s homeless and socially vulnerable residents.

“I put out a call for help on Instagram, and the next day I had nearly 1,000 emails from fellow chefs and everyday people who offered to drive the food out to the 14 shelters we now work with,” he explains. Hotels and restaurants also got in touch to donate food that would have otherwise gone to waste. Soon, Alchemist’s four kitchens were buzzing with masked volunteers, and the nascent social responsibility project JunkFood, which Munk had started as an experiment before the pandemic, took root.

“We all could have been at home relaxing, but I think we felt like we were obligated to do something that was beyond our own needs,” he says. “Of course, it was not just us. Denmark really came together, and I think samfundssind was a big part of it.”

Hygge – which roughly translates to ‘a quality of cosiness’ – may be the most appropriated Danish word of the past decade, but it’s samfundssind that’s really come to define the nation in the era of Covid-19. If hygge is something you practice with people you know, samfundssind is more of a behaviour towards those you might not know. Rarely used until just a few months ago, it’s now entered the Danish vernacular in an explosive way.

Like hygge, there’s no direct English translation of samfundssind. Marianne Rathje, senior researcher at the Danish Language Council, says you can think of it as putting the good of the greater society above your own personal interests. Danes believe this word has played a key role in the country’s successful response to the pandemic, and it may just offer clues for how the rest of the world can follow suit.

‘Samfundssind’ is a compound noun of ‘samfund’ (society) and ‘sind’ (mind). It dates back to 1936
“As Danes, we usually seek community by being close together,” she said. “Now, we must stand together by keeping apart. We need samfundssind.”
According to Rathje, usage of samfundssind in the Danish media soared from 23 mentions in February to 2,855 in March. In the first six months of 2019, samfundssind appeared 611 times in Danish newspapers and magazines, compared to 9,299 times in the same period this year.
“All Danes watched the prime minister’s press conferences, and that gave us the same vocabulary,” explains Rathje. “The word reminded us to look at corona as a joint situation where it was important not to think of your own needs, but to think about yourself as part of a bigger cause.”
Society in mind
Rathje says samfundssind is a compound noun of ‘samfund’ (society) and ‘sind’ (mind). It dates back to 1936, and made an historical cameo in a call for solidarity by then prime minister Thorvald Stauning at the outbreak of World War II. Thereafter, it lay in relative dormancy until Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen revived the word at a press conference on 11 March of this year announcing the first major measures to shut down the country. She presented samfundssind to Danes as having two main pillars: collective responsibility and community spirit.
The word was well chosen, she adds, when compared to the nearby synonym solidaritet (solidarity), which has connotations of the working class or of left-wing ideologies. “Samfundssind has been so relatively rarely used that it doesn’t have any connotations yet, except for corona[virus].”

Once the word was re-introduced, hash-tagged and diffused on social media, researchers such as Kristian Kongshøj, of the Institute of Political Science at Aalborg University, were curious to find out how widely it would be adopted. Would younger generations really practice as much samfundssind as their parents and grandparents?
Youth in action
As it turns out, they did. In a survey of 1,020 citizens conducted in late March, Kongshøj found no notable differences in behaviour across generations. Men were slightly less vigilant in their social distancing and personal hygiene than their female counterparts, however the survey found that Danes, as a whole, stood broadly together to make samfundssind a form of patriotism.
Danes, as a whole, stood broadly together to make samfundssind a form of patriotism

Posts tagged #samfundssind showed big and small acts of kindness, including the work of community volunteers, and call-outs for people to support local businesses – and also pointed out those who didn’t exhibit the spirit. “You could really see it in social media that there was this collective shaming of people who hoarded goods or didn’t practice samfundssind,” says Kongshøj. He believes that the word played a crucial role in Denmark flattening the curve.
“Suddenly, you need everyone to behave the same way, and how do you do that? Well, you need to develop new norms extremely rapidly so that those who deviate from these norms become ashamed,” he explains. “What helps in Denmark, and what we found, is that there is quite a lot of trust in politicians, but they can only do so much.”
Samfundssind worked, he adds, because the prime minister introduced it as a new norm, and the society, which trusted her, embraced it voluntarily. It’s a model the rest of the world may seek to replicate, albeit one that’s less easily adaptable in nations as politically polarised as the US or UK, where polls show little public confidence in leadership’s handling of the pandemic.
Rathje says she doesn’t see samfundssind tip-toeing back into linguistic obscurity any time soon. Rather, the idea of putting aside individuality for the benefit of the community has become an even stronger pillar of Danish identity. Researchers at the University of Copenhagen documented more than 250 new volunteer groups on Facebook for community aid projects between March and April, while spacious Copenhagen landmarks, including the theme park Tivoli and the Copenhagen Zoo, pivoted into temporary kindergarten and day-care centres during the worst of the outbreak to help home-bound workers cope.
As for Munk, his JunkFood project will continue indefinitely, albeit out of a separate kitchen now that Alchemist has reopened its doors to the public. He may be back in action crafting sorbet lollipops shaped like seahorses, but his commitment to samfundssind, like the rest of his fellow Danes, is still going strong.

Coffee Drinking Tied to Lower Risk of Heart Failure
Source：2021.2.18 The New York Times
A large analysis looked at hundreds of factors that may influence the risk of heart failure and found one dietary factor in particular that was associated with a lower risk: drinking coffee.
Heart failure, sometimes called congestive heart failure, occurs when the heart muscle becomes weakened and can no longer pump blood efficiently. It can be caused by high blood pressure, heart valve disease, heart attack, diabetes and other diseases and conditions.
The analysis included extensive, decades-long data from three large health studies with 21,361 participants, and used a method called machine learning that uses computers to find meaningful patterns in large amounts of data.
“Usually, researchers pick things they suspect would be risk factors for heart failure — smoking, for example — and then look at smokers versus nonsmokers,” said the senior author, Dr. David P. Kao, an assistant professor of medicine at the University of Colorado. “But machine learning identifies variables that are predictive of either increased or decreased risk, but that you haven’t necessarily thought of.”
Using this technique, Dr. Kao and his colleagues found 204 variables that are associated with the risk for heart failure. Then they looked at the 41 strongest factors, which included, among others, smoking, marital status, B.M.I., cholesterol, blood pressure and the consumption of various foods. The analysis is in Circulation: Heart Failure.
In all three studies, coffee drinking was associated more strongly than any other dietary factor with a decreased long-term risk for heart failure.
Drinking a cup a day or less had no effect, but two cups a day conferred a 31 percent reduced risk, and three cups or more reduced risk by 29 percent. There were not enough subjects who drank more than three cups daily to know if more coffee would decrease the risk further.
This is not the first study to find health benefits in coffee drinking. “In other studies, coffee drinking has been associated with a reduced risk for stroke and coronary heart disease as well,” Dr. Kao said, though “we didn’t find this in our study.”
The study was not able to account for different types of coffee or brewing methods, or the use of additives like sugar or cream. There was no association of a decreased risk of heart failure with drinking decaffeinated coffee — in fact, one study suggested it might increase the risk.
Caffeine may be an important factor, the authors suggested, but the mechanism for the effect is not known. The study did not examine the effect of tea or other caffeine-containing foods.
Unlike conventional observational studies that begin with a hypothesis and then develop evidence for it, this machine learning analysis started with no initial hypothesis. Dr. Harlan Krumholz, a professor of medicine at Yale who was not involved in the work, called the approach “innovative” but noted one limitation was that “many other behaviors likely track with coffee consumption, and it is difficult to disentangle the specific effect of coffee from other things that may go along with it.”
Should you start drinking coffee or increase the amount you already drink to reduce your risk for heart failure? “We don’t know enough from the results of this study to recommend this,” said Dr. Kao, adding that additional research would be needed. “It would be helpful if we could figure out whether drinking an extra cup would prevent certain complications.”
