B In 2025, Chinese architect Liu Jiakun won the Pritzker Prize, known as the “Nobel Prize of architecture,” for creating buildings that bring peace and beauty to everyday life. Born in 1956 in Sichuan, Liu grew up surrounded by plain communist-style buildings and traditional Chinese wooden houses.HisworkuniquelymixesoldChinesetraditionswithmodernideas. Liu’s career started with two identities: by day, he worked as an architect for a government company,drawingbuildingplans;bynight,hewrotestories.Thoughhisearlyjobatadesigninstitutein Tibetfeltrepetitive,hisloveforwritingsecretlyinfluencedhisarchitecture.“Designingbuildingsislike telling a story,” Liu explained. “Each space has its own flow, like the beginning, middle, and end of a book.” This storytelling approach is visible in his projects. For example, at Suzhou’s Imperial Kiln Museum, he combined ancient brick-making techniques with bold modern shapes. In Chengdu’s Xicun 高二英语试题 第 3 页 共 8 页Courtyard, he built huge sloping walkways where people ride bikes, jog, and skate, turning concrete intolivelypublicspaces. Liu’s concept became clear after the 2008 Sichuan earthquake. He created “Rebirth Bricks” using broken pieces from destroyed buildings, helping communities rebuild.The Pritzker judges praised how he “transforms ruins into hope.” His design for a panda nursery at Chengdu’s research base also shows hisbeliefthat“architectureshouldcareforalllivingthings.” From a young writer to a world-famous architect, Liu connects the past and present through his buildings. As the Pritzker award statement says, his works are “gifts to human culture,” proving that Chinese traditions can inspire modern architecture. By honoring Liu, the world celebrates China’s growingroleinshapinghowweliveandbuild. 24.Whatisthemainpurposeofthearticle? A.ToexplaintheglorioushistoryofthePritzkerPrize.

B.Historicalstylesshouldneverbechanged. C.Designshouldcombinestorytellingwithfunction. D.Architectureshouldfollowstrictmodernstandards. C Which do you prefer to look at, circles orsquares? Most people, even babies,choose circles. So it isn’t surprising that one of the world’s oldest art forms, the mandala, is based on circles. The word mandalameanscircleandisusedtodescribepatternswithinacircularshape. Did you realize that mandalas are all around you? Probably not, but if you slice an orange, a tomatooratreeyou’llfindoneofnature’smandalas.Orlookcloselyatthecenterofaflower. For thousands of years, people have been inspired by these natural patterns to create their own designs.

Theyareusedinsomeformbymostreligions(宗教)torepresentharmonyandtimelessness.Some religious mandalas, like the round, stained-glass windows of European churches, remain for centuries. Others don’t last long. Tibetan Buddhist monks in China train for three years before they are ready to create mandalas using colored sand. Their detailed designs often take days to complete, but then they are left to be blown away by the wind or swept up after a few days and placed in running water to be spread.Themonksdothisasareminderofhowtransientthematerialworldis.

A.Objective. B.Positive. C.Critical. D.Confused. D The beginnings of life remain one of modern science’s greatest mysteries. Scientists lack a complete understanding of how cells first formed billions of years ago due to uncertain early Earth conditions. Key questions include whether life’s emergence was likely or accidental and whether it couldariseelsewhereintheuniverse. A University College London (UCL) team, led by Dr. Nick Lane, investigates these questions by studyingEarth’soriginalconditions.Theyassumethatwarmoceansprings4billionyearsagomayhave facilitated life’s creation. These springs, with tiny interconnected holes, enabled chemical reactions between hydrogen-rich liquids and seawater carbon dioxide, generating life’s basic “building blocks.” While not alive themselves, these molecules(分子) could combine to form cell-like structures when concentrated. Lane suggests that similar processes might occur on exoplanets(外行星), as only rock, water, and carbon dioxide are required—components common across the universe. This raises the possibilityofwidespreadbasiclife. Because the ingredients for life are basic and should be all over the universe, there is a very good chancethatwecouldsoonfindsignsoflifeonotherplanets.Furthermore,anewspacesatelliteisgoing to start helping with this search. The name of the satellite is “Twinkle” and it will be the first space satellite searching other planets for life. Until now, almost 2,000 exoplanets have been discovered but not much is known about them. Katy Chubb of University College London explains, “We’ve been discovering all of these planets but now we need to find out what they’re made of and what the conditionsarelikeonthem”. A team from University College London and Surrey Satellite Technology will send the satellite intospaceinthenextfewyears.Thesmall,low-costsatellitewillstudylightcomingfromotherplanets.

For students and working professionalsalike,thissystemprovidesnecessarytimeforrelaxationandpersonaldevelopment. Firstly, the two-day weekend offers valuable recovery time. Continuous work or study can lead to physical tiredness and mental stress. Weekends give people opportunities to sleep sufficiently and refreshtheirminds. 37 Studentswhogetenoughweekendrestoftenperformbetteracademically thanthosewhooverstudy. 38 Without proper planning, weekends might be wasted through too much screen time or meaningless activities. Some students spend whole days playing video games, while others keep studying without breaks. Both extremes fail to achieve the weekend’s true purpose. This situation remindsusthatweekendtimemanagementrequiresdeliberateeffort. Tomake the mostof weekends, balancedplanningis crucial.Agoodweekend planshould include three elements: rest, recreation, and preparation. For example, students might schedule morning study sessions for homework review, afternoons for sports or hobbies, and evenings for family time.
