Helga Stentzel’s Clothesline Animals combine charming images as fine art prints in various sizes.
As an artist whose style she calls “household surrealism (超现实主义)”，she works in various media and
has a large collection of works. Instead of throwing an old pair of pants or T-shirt away, Helga Stentzel puts her
tired garments out to the farm. By hanging them on a simple clothesline she sets up and folding them artfully that
look like animals, she takes wonderful pictures. Some are shot in real locations while others are digitally placed
in environments in charming form with appealing colors.
Siberian-born Stentzel has cooperated with many respectable and well-known brands, one of which is Hogar
Verde, a bio-friendly laundry products brand in Ecuador. For them she has created the adorable clothing illusions
(错觉) for a print ad campaign，which also drew attention to the endangered animals shown within, like
dinosaurs, polar bears and so on.
Stentzel’s practice started from her childhood in Siberia, where she spent hours surveying her grandmother’s
carpet, woods and random objects for recognizable forms, including a pile of buckets looking like the Leaning
Tower of Pisa.
In what seems a very simple gesture, Stentzel’s works employ household items and turn them into surrealist
images that uncover different reading layers. From food to clothes, the artist is inspired by everyday objects and
gives them a second life through her creative and really poetic personal angle.
“I stare at things longer than socially acceptable! It can be anything—a chair, a noodle hanging off the fork,
a lamp post in the middle of the road. Observation is a form of thinking for me. I really enjoy studying colors,
shapes and textures—with no expectation, simply admiring their unique beauty. Very often there’s nothing more to
it, but sometimes BOOM!—a creative idea hits my brain, and it makes a link between sliced bread and wrinkled
skin of a French bulldog. It’s very unpredictable,”Stentzel said.
5．What is Stentzel’s source of inspiration?
A．Daily items. B．Tourist attractions.
C．Random surveys. D．Childhood adventures.
6．Which of the following can best describe Stentzel’s fine art prints?
A．Complex and digital. B．Meaningful and creative.
C．Poetic but commercial. D．Ordinary but bio-friendly.
7．What can we learn from Stentzel’s story?A．Art can give people a second life.
B．Artworks are from life yet above life.
C．Creation is from intentional observation.
D．Cooperation results in adorable artworks.

The unexpected gift made a big difference to Starks and her children, and it motivated her to pay it forward.
Starks, who works two receptionist jobs, also braids hair part-time. “The hair-braiding process involves washing,
blow-drying, and finally dividing the hair into small sections and braiding it. It also requires multiple supplies —
including combs, brushes, hair jam and additional pieces of hair to weave in. It costs anywhere from $150 to $400
at a salon (美发厅), depending on the style,” Stacks explained. “But it can last for months and is a huge timesaver
in the mornings.”
What does Starks say about hair braiding?
A．It’s a bit dear. B．It’s time-wasting.
C．It’s an easy job. D．It’s a mother’s duty.

I truly believe we all have a very special purpose in life, regardless of who we are or where we come from.
After ten years of working for a major Wall Street bank, I wanted to do something challenging. So when I read a
Merrill Lynch advertisement looking to hire more stockbrokers (股票经纪人), with great excitement, I made some
phone calls and arranged to meet with one of its branch vice presidents. After this interview and interviews with
twelve of his top stockbrokers, I eventually landed the job.
The first few months was a struggle. I lived on very little commission (佣金). Night after night, I left the office
weary and exhausted, ready to give up, yet somehow returning the next morning to start anew day. Eventually, all
the hard work paid off. In less than four years, I became one of the top sales people at my branch and increased
personal sales by 1,700 percent. The success earned me a six-figure income, promotion and numerous sales awards.
46．Why did the author meet with a Merrill Lynch branch vice president?
A．To arrange an interview. B．To make an advertisement.
C．To employ more clerks. D．To get a position.

I think all scientists can benefit from this lesson. If the data say rhinos are librarians, then it’s worth finding out
whether rhinos are, in fact, librarians. As scientists, our job isn’t to challenge data that support, a preconceived

A．They should attend the improvisation class.
B．They should question all preconceived ideas.
C．They should carry on research by admitting earlier data.

A few years ago, when I was caring for my seriously ill father, I lost my voice. At first, I just sounded hoarse
when I was having difficult conversations about Dad’s condition. But before long, I couldn’t even say “Yes please”

throat specialist, I was told that I had lost my voice due to stress.
What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A．To introduce the topic.
B．To make the article interesting.
C．To share the author’s personal experience.

While I may not love where I live, there are plenty of people who are proud to call this place home. At a party
with colleagues, I was going on about everything I couldn’t stand in our town when I noticed that they were silent
and shifting uncomfortably. That moment forced a change in me. Complaining may offer relief, but so does
acceptance. There is no perfect life. By focusing on gripes, I risk missing out on precious moments of appreciation.

nothing to complain about.

Nowadays, bamboo growth cycles and the dietary needs of lemurs (狐猴) are out of sync. Findings show
rainfalls are changing annually. Over the past two years, there has been a three-month delay in the rainy season and
new tender shoots that lemurs consume for nutrition are appearing in January and February—14 days after the first
rainfall, says Patricia Chapple Wright, a primatologist, anthropologist, and conservationist at Stony Brook
University. “Lemurs eat a food source that is very adaptive,” Patricia Wright told PBS NewsHour. “It’s able to

I was in a new state at a new school and needed something solid to stand on: a place to feel grounded. I also
needed to do laundry, so I walked to a nearby self-service laundry and stuffed a machine with my clothes. As I
struggled to close the washer door, the woman working behind the counter told me to give it a good hit with my
hand. The washer did its job, yet even after an hour, the dryer seemed to have barely warmed my clothes. I left,
having decided to air-dry them on my car in the August heat.
A month later, I learned her name was Sandy, which she told me after I’d helped her stop a washing machine
from moving across the floor. I was grading poems at a table when one of the washers broke loose and skipped an
inch into the air. I jumped to the machine and held on while she unplugged it. The next week, Sandy told me dryer
No.8 was the fastest.
It went on like this. I’d do laundry once a week, usually Thursday or Friday. Sandy worked Tuesday through
Saturday and we’d talk small while I folded clothes. She told me about her son and his grades, the new dog they’d
just adopted. She was fascinated that I was studying poetry. She teased (开玩笑) that it was harder making a living
as a poet than as a laundry attendant. Even then I knew she was probably right.
I began to recognize others there: workers taking breaks by the door, a mother and her baby, and even some
delivery drivers. But Sandy was the center of my community. For nearly three years and almost every week, I’d do
laundry and talk with her. We checked on each other and expected the other to be there. We asked where the other
had gone when we missed a week. There was a note of concern for the other’s absence, a note of joy at their return.
I’d found a place to stand on solid ground.5．Why did Sandy tell the author to use dryer No.8?
A．She was warm-hearted. B．She needed a volunteer.
C．She wanted to thank him. D．She was sorry for the mess.
6．What did Sandy think of a career in poetry?
A．It was harder to fulfill. B．It was really fascinating.
C．It was badly-paid work. D．It needed a lot of effort.
7．What can be inferred about the author from the passage?
A．He formed a close friendship with Sandy. B．He made a lot of friends in college.
C．He expected Sandy to do laundry for him. D．He often wrote to Sandy after graduation.

The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate (培养) a sustainable
digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude (独处) and the
necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spend on mindless device use. Each

You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that words for
your particular circumstances.

In a follow-up study with 100 university students the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group
members actually did in their discussion. Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates? Did
they follow those least willing to change their minds? This happened some of the time, but it wasn’t the dominant
response. Most frequently, the groups reported that they “shared arguments and reasoned together.” Somehow,
these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error. Although the studies led by Navajas have
limitations and many questions remain the potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are
enormous.
14. What did the follow-up study focus on?
A. The size of the groups. B. The dominant members.
C. The discussion process. D. The individual estimates.

restaurants outnumber grocery stores. “The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of
soft drinks,” she says. “They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful.” Though
some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt, most are eager to try something new.
25. What was a problem facing Jaramillo at the start of the program?
A. The kids’ parents distrusted her. B. Students had little time for her classes.
C. Some kids disliked garden work. D. There was no space for school gardens.

She adds that the program’s benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that
they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming
effect on Jaramillo’s special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues. “They get outside,”
she says, “and they feel successful.”
26. Wh0548ich of the following best describes the impact of the program?
A. Far-reaching. B. Predictable.
C. Short-lived. D. Unidentifiable.

Continued developments in communication technologies were once believed to make the printed page
outdated. From a 21st-century point of view, the printed book is certainly ancient, but it remains as interactive as
any battery-powered e-reader. To serve its function, a book must be activated by a user: the cover opened, the pages
parted, the contents reviewed, perhaps notes written down or words underlined. And in contrast to our increasingly
networked lives where the information we consume is monitored and tracked, a printed book still offers the chance
of a wholly private, “off-line” activity.
31. What does the author want to say by mentioning the e-reader?
A. The printed book is not totally out of date.
B. Technology has changed the way we read.
C. Our lives in the 21st century are networked.
D. People now rarely have the patience to read.

One time my friends and I drove three hours to Devil’s Lake, Wisconsin, to climb the purple quartz (石英)
rock around the lake. After we found a crazy-looking road that hung over a bunch of rocks, we decided to
photograph the scene at sunset. The position enabled us to look over the lake with the sunset in the background. We
managed to leave this spot to climb higher because of the spare time until sunset. However, we did not mark the
route (路线) so we ended up almost missing the sunset entirely. Once we found the place, it was stressful getting
lights and cameras set up in the limited time. Still, looking back on the photos, they are some of my best shots
though they could have been so much better if I would have been prepared and managed my time wisely.25. What is the key to successful landscape photography according to the author?
A. Proper time management. B. Good shooting techniques.
C. Adventurous spirit. D. Distinctive styles.
26. What can we infer from the author trip with friends to Devil’s Lake?
A. They went crazy with the purple quartz rock.
B. They felt stressed while waiting for the sunset.
C. They reached the shooting spot later than expected.
D. They had problems with their emipment.

A. Amusing. B. Satisfying.
C. Encouraging. D. Comforting.

It’s thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-
and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits. It is recently reported
that the number of those sticking to a traditional diet is slowly declining and around half of Britain’s consumers
would like to change or improve their cooking in some way. There has been a rise in the number of students
applying for food courses at UK universities and colleges. It seems that TV programmes have helped change what
people think about cooking.
29. Which best describes cookery programme on British TV?
A. Authoritative. B. Creative. C. Profitable. D. Influential.

She credits these skills to her late grandfather and builder Derek Lloyd. From the age of six, Terri, now 26,
accompanied Derek to work during her school holidays. A day’s work was rewarded with £ 5 in pocket money. She
says: “I’m sure I wasn’t much of a help to start with painting the rooms and putting down the flooring throughout

Obviously, if precautions (预防) aren’t taken, grizzlies can become troublesome, sometimes killing farm animals or
walking through yards in search of food. If people remove food and attractants from their yards and campsites,
grizzlies will typically pass by without trouble. Putting electric fencing around chicken houses and other farm
animal quarters is also highly effective at getting grizzlies away. “Our hope is to have a clean, attractant-free place
where bears can pass through without learning bad habits,“ says James Jonkel, longtime biologist who m
