阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
American Unique Buildings
The country’s full of awe—inspiring natural wonders, but those made by man (and woman) are equally
impressive. The architect behind a design or the creation’s history or purpose are all elements that may prove
particularly attractive. These following buildings are all well worth visiting.
Bradbury Building
Los Angeles
Glancing at the Bradbury Building, built in 1893, the oldest commercial building in L.A．, you may say:
“OK, it’s a 19th-century relic.” Step inside and you will be surprised by the light-filled Victorian court, a wonder of
open—cage elevators, marble stairs, and splendid iron barriers. Its architectural history is debatable — Sumner
Hunt’s designs seem to have been completed by George H. Wyman, who monitored the construction.
Vizcaya Museum and Gardens
Miami
Built in 1916, the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, formerly Villa Vizcaya, is the one-time winter home of
businessman James Deering. On Biscayne Bay in the Coconut Grove neighborhood, the early 20th-century property
features Italian Renaissance (文艺复兴) gardens, native woodlands, and a complex of historic outbuildings. Theproperty designed by Paul Chalfin is today operated by Miami-Dade County.
Rogers Building
Orlando
The 132-year-old, Queen Anne-style structure, now housing an art gallery but a one-time home to cocktail-
and-gaming clubs, was donated to the City of Orlando in 2018 earlier by Ford Kiene. The restriction that it must
remain an arts and culture center for at least 20 years ensures public access for the near future.
Griffith Observatory
Los Angeles
It’s possible to see the stars at this destination that includes sweeping views of the city and the Hollywood
sign, and has a planetarium (天文馆) to boot. It’s been a draw for its construction style sign its 1935 opening, with
a $93 million expansion completed in 2006.
21．Which of the following places has the shortest history?
A．Bradbury Building. B．Griffith Observatory.
C．Rogers Building. D．Vizcaya Museum and Gardens.
22．What can we learn about Rogers Building?
A．It used to be an art gallery. B．It was expanded in 1892.
C．It was once privately owned. D．It has been a culture center for 20 years.
23．In which column can this text probably be read?
A．Business. B．Travel. C．Science. D．Education.
B
It’s been 20 years since a cookbook changed my life. Before reading every page in Nigella Lawson’s Feast, I
didn’t give much thought lo what I ate. Cooking was a boring task I wasn’t particularly good at. Moreover, fear of
calories and not being able to fit into my jeans left little room for enjoying things like “chocolate cake”. Nigella, the
author of Nigella Lawson’s Feast transformed my relationship with food, changing it from a source of panic to one
of limitless pleasure. Leafing through the pages of Feast, I began to think of the women who shaped my cooking.
They not only influenced me strongly with their words, recipes and passion for the art of eating, but they also left
their mark on the culinary (烹饪的) world.
Take Eugénie Brazier, for example, who grew up with barely enough to eat yet with plenty of determination to
achieve great things. After years of hard work on farms and later as a humble cook, she used the little savings she
had to open La Mère Brazier, a restaurant that would attract the likes of celebrities. A second location followed, andin 1933, she became the first chef ever to hold six Michelin stars simultaneously (同时地). Known as the mother of
modern French cooking, Brazier’s simple yet elegant food changed the way Britain ate.
What Brazier did for the UK, the passionate Julia Child did for America. At a time when TV dinners and
tinned foods were gaining popularity, she inspired home cooks to try elegant recipes, teaching them about the use of
quality ingredients in an approachable way.
While Julia Child tempted us with her recipes, it was the American author Fisher who enlightened us with her
fine cooking prose (散文). In her brilliant essays, she praised the pleasures of the table and explored connections
between food and culture. One of my favorite books is Love in a Dish, a charming collection of culinary
experiences that transport you to French villages and even describe how the love of food can potentially save a
marriage!
24．How does the author introduce the topic?
A．By giving examples. B．By raising a question.
C．By describing his experience. D．By offering facts.
25．Which words can best describe Brazier?
A．Friendly and determined. B．Considerate and brave.
C．Generous and intelligent. D．Ambitious and successful.
26．What do Fisher’s works focus on?
A．The ingredients of food. B．The story behind food.
C．The significance of food. D．The origin of food.
27．What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A．To motivate readers to cook at home. B．To market high-quality cooking books.
C．To honor some exceptional women cooks. D．To share his passion for cooking.
C
Few people realize it, but glaciers (冰川) are full of tiny air bubbles (气泡). They form as snow, accumulating
over thousands of years, slowly packs into ice under its own weight — squishing the air that was trapped between
snowflakes into tiny holes. Erin Pettit, a scientist, and her colleagues had suspected that bubbles could be
important. To test this idea, they undertook a series of laboratory experiments.
They find that as the ice melted, the resulting fresh water rose, because it was less dense than the surrounding
sea water. This created a rising current along the vertical face of the ice — a proof of what occurs at the front of a
real tidewater glacier. When the glacial ice melted, the current that it produced was six times faster than what wasseen with the bubble-free ice because the rising bubbles pulled the water up more quickly. The glacial ice melted
2.25 times more quickly than the bubble-free ice. “That’s a very powerful effect. If that’s the reality in nature, then
it’s quite serious.”
The newly discovered bubble effect could explain some of that extra melting, says Mathieu Morlighem, a
scientist. “It’s improving our understanding, but it’s not painting a darker picture of what’s happening today,” he
says.
Pettit notes that in Alaska, many bays with tidewater glaciers have large populations of harbor seals. The
animals shelter there while molting and raising babies. But in Glacier Bay, where the tidewater glaciers retreated
(后退) many miles inland, the seal populations have declined. Pettit now suspects that the roaring rhythm of
exploding bubbles provides a hiding place where seals can avoid detection by killer whale, which often find their
victim by listening. The bubbles may mask the seals’ sounds — at least until the ice retreats out of hearing. This
may turn out to be yet another way in which these tiny bubbles have surprisingly large-scale effects.
28．What does the underlined word “squishing” in paragraph I mean?
A．Absorbing. B．Pressing. C．Adding. D．Reducing.
29．What did Pettit and her colleagues find about the bubbles?
A．They produce a warm current of water.
B．They result in releasing more fresh water.
C．They have formed for thousands of years slowly.
D．They cause the ice in glaciers to melt more quickly.
30．What is Mathieu’s attitude towards the discovery?
A．Doubtful. B．Favorable. C．Disapproving. D．Cautious.
31．What effect does the last paragraph reflect?
A．The frog effect. B．The bucket effect.
C．The butterfly effect. D．The broken windows effect.
D
While Industry 5.0 is believed to have started in 2020, the rise of AI in recent years has led experts to say it is
now coming. Imagine AI-powered robots that see, hear, touch and more, pooling fresh data from across those
groups of sensors to create that data with the vast ranges of digital data stored elsewhere online. The age is a major
leap from the First Industrial Revolution, when steam engine started to achieve widespread commercial use.
Professor John Nosta says, “The integration of sensory capabilities into AI models is not merely atechnological leap. It represents a shift in our philosophical understanding of artificial and human intelligence.”
He has also referred to the new era as “the Cognitive (认知) Age,” which will completely change how humans
live, work, and think about themselves. According to Nosta, humans don’t typically think of computers as
“experiencing” the world themselves. But that assumption will be challenged as more advanced AI systems are
hooked up to ever more and ever greater sensors. The machines won’t just be logic boxes that humans input data
and commands for processing. The AI will collect that data more and more on its own, experiencing the world for
itself.
“This is not just about understanding words, but also about grasping the tone, pitch (音高), and emphasis,
which add layers of meaning often absent in written text. Image recognition adds another layer of complexity,” he
added. “For example, it can analyze photographs, identify objects, and even understand the emotional content of
facial expressions.”
The Johannesburg-based business school is just one of many college-level programs attempting to investigate
and teach its students about the still-emerging IR 5.0. Seton Hall in New Jersey offers a three-credit course on this
latest age in human technology and trade; MIT has brought in guest speakers to lecture on the concept, and many
other research institutions are following suit.
32．Where does IR 5.0 differ from previous industrial revolution?
A．It processes data and commands. B．It interacts with humans through texts.
C．It enhances human sensory capabilities. D．It employs more senses in its application.
33．Why is IR 5. 0 called the Cognitive age?
A．AI collects and interprets data itself. B．AI turns written texts into voice.
C．AI understands written language well. D．AI has an ability of expressing emotions
34．How do some colleges address IR 5.0?
A．By offering related courses. B．By expecting more industrial revolution.
C．By applying AI to the technological trade. D．By preparing for the rapid economic changes.
35．What is the best title for the text?
A．Al Is Approaching Us Gradually B．A New IR Is About Machine Learning
C．AI Has Developed Its Own Senses D．We Are Entering IR 5.0 Now

Based on his own research at Washington University in St. Louis and other scientific studies, psychologylecturer Bono offers the following tips for getting and staying happier in your life.
36 Looking forward to an enjoyable experience can make it all that much sweeter. Wait a couple of
days before seeing a new movie that just came out, plan your big vacation for later in the summer, and try to take
time to enjoy each bite of dessert. On the opposite, get negative tasks out of the way as quickly as possible — any
delay will only make them seem worse.
People who focus more on process than outcome tend to remain motivated in the face of setbacks. They’re
better at sticking with major challenges and prefer them over the easy route. 37 Because it celebrates
rewards that come from the work itself. Focusing only on the outcome can lead to premature burnout if things don’t
go well.
38 Find an activity that allows you to get together with friends on a regular, ongoing basis. A weekly
happy hour, poker night, or TV show ensures consistency and motivation in your social interactions. People with
high-quality relationships are not only happier, but also healthier. 39
The next time you are attracted to use your phone to look through social media, look through your list of
contacts instead. 40 The happiness you get from a real connection with another person will be far greater
than any comments or likes you get on social media.
A．Anticipation itself is pleasurable.
B．Decrease unnecessary socializing.
C．Find someone to call or FaceTime.
D．This “growth mindset” helps people stay energized.
E．Facebook and Instagram often overstate how much better off others are.
F．Nothing is more important for our psychological health than high-quality friendships.
G．They recover from illnesses more quickly, live longer, and enjoy more enriched lives.

This was the big game. The boys were 41 and excited. It was a clear night, and my son Andy’s
baseball team, which had 42 all year, had shocked the better teams by making it to this championship
game. The atmosphere was 43 : the other team’s slugger (强击手),a big kid, was like a snake, dangerous
and ready to 44 .
Nervously, I looked out Andy’s way. I was 45 to see Andy looking straight up at the night sky!Obviously he wasn’t 46 on the game. I was horrified that he wouldn’t even know the ball was coming.

one run.
Andy ran up to me at the 49 . I was about to 50 him when he said loudly, “Did you see
that shooting star?”
Andy’s eyes were glowing (发光) with 51 . I paused.
“Yes,” I said. “Well, one inning (局) to go. Hit a home run (全垒打)!”
“Okay!” said Andy, and he ran back to his 52 .
I suddenly realized it was nice my son would take time out to 53 the wonder and beauty in life. You
might be surprised by the beauty you can find when you least 54 it. Andy hit a triple in that last inning.

The term “Erbin”, a, nickname of Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, known for its ice and snow festival, 56
(gain) popularity across China recently. Many tourism officials are using techniques to promote cultural tourism,57 (leave) netizens screaming in amusement. Shifting from online hype (炒作) to offline engagement, tourism
authorities in other provinces also compete 58 tourists.
The essence of this “fancy rat-race” lies in 59 fact that various regional cultural tourism initiatives
60 (target) at the Spring Festival tourist boom, using hype to attract tourists and boost the local economies. But
to attract more tourists, 61 seems unwise is to rely merely on publicity and luxury strategies. Cities and
tourist spots should focus on three factors to attract more tourists.
First, they need to build better roads to scenic spots and tourist service platforms, 62 set proper traffic
signs. Second, they should provide related supporting services to enhance 63 (tourist) experience. For that,
the tourist spots and cities need to 64 (far) develop tourist attractions and supporting facilities. It is also
important 65 (tell) convincing local cultural stories.
Tourism authorities should, therefore, focus on promoting local cuisine, natural resources and personalities.

67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Michael saw the trouble coming. There standing in the hallway was Frank, the boy who enjoyed making fun of
anyone at any given moment. Frank was tall and strong, so few of his victims stood up to him. Michael hated the
idea that Frank always got away with his wrongdoing. Yet like most kids who were picked on, he just took it
quietly and waited for the unpleasant to pass.Frank walked up, his eyes locked on the books in Michael’s arms. When they met, Frank stopped
unexpectedly, “Hey, let me see those books!” Some students watched as Michael held out the books he was
carrying, trying not to give away his nervousness.
Frank took a book, looked inside for a second, and then threw the book at Michael, who dropped all the other
books. “Hey, those are school property,” Frank barked, “Be careful!” Then he walked away, laughing loudly.
Michael, his cheeks turning red, half kicked the fallen books. Suddenly a hand picked up one book. “You look
like you could use a p ally (盟友),” a friendly voice said. It was Ramon, the most athletic boy in the high school.
Michael couldn’t believe Ramon was stopping to help him as they barely spoke.
“Thanks,” Michael sighed with relief. “It’s confusing. I don’t know what his problems is.”
“Well, as I see it,” Ramon said, “you need to find a way to end this.” Michael nodded, stuck for what to say.
Ramon continued, “You know my grandmother used to tell me whenever I had a problem with someone. She’d say,
‘You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar (醋).’”
Looking puzzled, Michael asked, “What does that mean?”
“It means kindness may be more effective than anger,” Ramon explained.
“Can you just tell Frank to stop picking on me?” Michael suggested.
“That’s vinegar,” Ramon laughed as he walked away. “Try honey instead.”
Ramon’s words left Michael thinking.
The next school day brought Michael’s usual pain. There stood Frank, and Michael knew it would be just
seconds before he had to face him in the middle of the hall. Frank came nearer.
