artists and children 26 have dreamed ofsuch a gift from the sea.This time, though, its not a bottle that washes ashore. Ifs eggs——thousands of little toy eggs.

Thafs what happened on the German island of Langegoog this week.Lying just off the North Sea coast, it found itself 27

by an invasion of colored plastic eggs- muchto the 28 of local children, because the eggs contained toys.

Police 29 the eggs came from a freighter that lost part of its cargo during an unusually 30 storm, the

worst to hit Germanys northeastern coast since 2006.At any rate, what was lost has now been found by many of the community 5 s littlest residents.

contains information given in one o f the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is

derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the

questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Hyphenating your last name after marriage?

A) Congratulations on deciding to get married! While being married is great and wonderful, the act of getting

married can be quite stressful. There is the planning of the ceremony itself, the merging (合并)of twohouseholds and all of the details involved in that. You also have to take the time to apply fbr your marriage

license and then decide whether or not you are going to keep your last name or change it.B) This is where a lot of people have trouble. Once upon a time, it was just customary fbr a bride to take her

groom9 s last name as her own and abandon her maiden name completely. The act of keeping her own last

name was considered taboo (禁忌)and peoples eyebrows would raise right off their faces when they foundout that the bride was even considering something so radical. Over time, though, more and more women are

deciding to keep their last names.C) There are a lot of reasons to want to keep your own last name. Hopefully you have a supportive groom who

understands why this idea is the most appealing to you. A lot of times, though, the act of keeping your name

is still something that causes concern. Even if your groom is fine with it, his family (or your own) might not

be so understanding.D) There are a couple of ways to compromise on the issue. You could choose an entirely new last name fbr the

two of you to share. This way neither of you gets "your" way and you both have to deal with the legalities of

• 2023年 3 月四级真题（第一套）•4迈成专转本going through a name change. Most of the time, though, the most popular compromise is to hyphenate your

last name and the last name of your groom. For example, if your grooms name is John Smith and your name

is Kate Jones, you would name yourself Kate Jones-Smith or Kate Smith-Jones. This allows you to keepgoing by your own last name while legally adopting your husbands last name at the same time.

E) The compromise is the biggest reason that so many women choose to hyphenate their last names. It is a

way of you keeping your own identity while also making your future husband happy. It allows you to stay

connected to accomplishments that you achieved before you got married. For example, many women whochoose to hyphenate do so partially because they have earned higher educational degrees and certifications

under their maiden names. They might have also had things published or publicized and want to stayconnected to that identity. Hyphenating your last name can help you bridge the gap between your personal

and professional lives. Many women who opt to simply keep their own names do so because they dont want

to give up all that they have accomplished professionally. Adopting their husbands last name makes it hard

fbr them to claim ownership of these accomplishments personally because they happened under their “other”

name.F) While tradition is one thing, there isnt any logical reason to completely change your name. Keeping your

name and joining it to your husbands through hyphenation is as legal as simply adopting his name or as

simply keeping your own and leaving his out of the picture entirely.G) Probably the most important reason to consider hyphenation is your identity. Youve spent your whole life

building your identity under a certain name. Obviously you will still be you even if youve taken on your

husbands last name and omitted yours entirely. At the same time, your name is associated with the identity

youve built up and hyphenation allows you to respect that while also respecting tradition and your husbands

familys identity.H) If you care about outside opinions on your name, you should know that a large portion of todays society is

annoyed by the hyphenated name. Some people find it “snobby”(势利 的)and others simply find it irritating

because they have a hard time remembering which last name they are supposed to say first. Some people

even believe that not simply adopting your husbands last name is a huge sign of disrespect and a lack of

commitment.I) It is possible that your future husband will find this choice offensive. Some men, regardless of how you might

feel about such things, are traditionalists and feel that it is simply “right“ fbr the woman to take the mans last

name as her own. Whether your future husband insisting on your adopting his last name is a red flag to you or

not, it is still something that you should take into consideration.J) There are all sorts of reasons to hyphenate your name or not to hyphenate your name. The basis for each of

these things, however, is whether or not you are willing to make a compromise when it comes to changing

your name. The hyphenation is the epitome (体现)of a compromise. One spouse wants a complete namechange. The other spouse wants no name change. Hyphenating the two names is a way fbr each person to, at

least a little bit, "win" the argument.K) And dont forget the legal stuff! Making the decision is just part of the process. From there you are going

to have to legally change your name all over the place. Youll need to change your name at the bank, with

5• 2023年 3 月四级真题（第一套）•迈成专转本social security, with your credit cards, on your drivers license, at the gym... everywhere. Ifs easy to get

overwhelmed just thinking about it.L) What matters, of course, is that the two of you are going to be happily married——hopefully for the rest of your

lives. At the end of the day, whether you each keep your names, whether you come up with an entirely new

name for the two of you to share or whether you hyphenate your current last names, what matters is that you

love each other and are going to be joining your lives together. Try to remember that as you are staring at the

application for your marriage license and filling out the portion that reads “name after you get mamed , , (or

whatever the legalese for that might be).36. Many people today still find name hyphenation upon marriage unacceptable.

37. As a compromise, a bride will in most cases adopt a name that combines the couples last names.38. The bride should consider adopting her grooms last name whether he feels strongly about it or not.

39. Making preparations for marriage causes a lot of stress.40. Hyphenating the last names could be a win-win solution should arguments arise about what name to adopt

upon marriage.41. It used to be considered socially unacceptable for a bride to retain her maiden name.

42. The bride who adopts a hyphenated last name after marriage can maintain connections with their past

achievements.43. Hyphenating names allows the bride to preserve her own identity while respecting tradition.

44. No matter what name the bride adopts, it is most important that the newly weds truly love each other.

45. Legally speaking, the bride is free to choose whatever name she prefers.Section CDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage isf

ollowed by some questions or unfinishedstatements. For each o f them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best

Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Its good to be smart. After all, intelligent people earn more money, accumulate more wealth, and even live

longer. But theres another side to the story. The brightest people and strongest leaders sometimes make errors

others dont, especially in situations that require common sense.Travis Bradberry, president at TalentSmart, explained in his post Why Smart People Act So Stupid that

""Rational thinking and intelligence dont tend to go hand in hand. Intelligent people are more prone to silly

mistakes because of blind spots in how they use logic. These blind spots exist because smart people tend to be

overconfident in their reasoning abilities.They are so used to being right and having quick answers that they

dont even realise when they 5 re making a mess by answering without thinking things through.A lifetime of praise leads smart people to develop too much faith in their intelligence and abilities. They

often fail to recognise when they need help, and when they do recognise it, they tend to believe that no one else

is capable of providing it.•2023年 3月四级真题(第一套) •6迈成专转本“Its hard for anyone to graciously accept the fact that theyre wrong. Ifs even harder fbr smart people

because they grow so used to being right all the time that it becomes a part of their identity,Bradberry wrote.

smart people, being wrong can feel like a personal attack, and being right, a necessity.^^Smart people also have a hard time accepting feedback. They tend to undervalue the opinions of others,

which means they have trouble believing that anyone is qualified to give them useful feedback. Not only does

this tendency hinder their growth and performance, it can lead to harmful relationships, both personally and

professionally.Smart people develop overachieving personalities because things come so easily to them. They simply dont

understand how hard some people have to work to accomplish the same things, and because of that, they push

people too hard. They set the bar too high, and when people take too long or dont get things quite right, they

assume its due to a lack of effort. So they push even harder.46. What do we learn from the passage about the brightest people?

D) Too much concern about their work.48. How do smart people react when they are found to be wrong?A) They shift the blame to others.

C) They may feel shocked.B) They graciously accept the facts.D) They may get offended.49. What may happen to smart people who find it difficult to accept suggestions?

A) They may suffer in their professional and private life.B) They may lose faith in their administrative abilities.

C) They may commit more errors than ever before.D) They may experience a lot of emotional stress.50. What is said about those working with or under overachieving people?

A) They put a lot of effort into their work.C) They are under increasing pressure.B) They set higher goals for themselves.

D) They take less time to get things done.Passage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.

Of the endless troubles that come with being driven from ones home country, losing educational certificates

may seem small. But it isnt Refugees who settle in other countries often find themselves unable to continue on

their previous career path due to a new set of employer standards or skills requirements. To solve this problem,

the U.S. State Department is posing a solution: online learning.7・2023年 3 月四级真题（第一套）•迈成专转本The State Department will announce a partnership with an online education platform called Coursera. The

platform will allow refugees worldwide to take thousands of online courses for free. "Coursera for Refugees”

will be available for any non-profit group that supports refugees in any country, as well as individual refugees.

They can apply for fully funded access to Courseras course catalog, which means they can take all of the

platform^ classes and obtain professional certificates for free. The platform currently offers professor-led lectures

on a broad range of topics, from data science to fashion design.As the world migrant crisis intensifies, employment is becoming a global concern. The new program aims to

aid refugees by offering "important skills that will help them in the global economy,Evan Ryan, U.S. assistant

secretary of state for educational and cultural affairs, said on a press call last week. "What we dont want to do is

not act,“ added Coursera chief operations officer Lila Ibrahim.The idea isnt without problems. For one, starting a new career path isnt as simple as watching a few videos

and obtaining an online certificate; even those looking to continue previous careers cant simply rely on an online

lecture to get them up-to-date on standards, policies, and practices. For another, most of the classes on Coursera

are in English, and though there are plans to add translations, language barriers can be a big obstacle. Then there

are the questions over the value of massive open online courses (MOOCs) themselves- both for refugees and for

average learners.But its still early days and there are signs of hope. In 2015, a joint study found 72% of people taking the

MOOCs saw career benefits afterwards.51. Why is the U.S. State Department launching an online learning program for refugees?

D) Refugees find it more difficult to get a job.54. What does the author say causes refugees 9 difficulty in taking online courses?
