Paris, best-known as the city of love, is also the city of book lovers! Here are four literary landmarks you
should not miss.
Brasserie Lipp
151 Boulevard Saint-Germain
This brasserie has long been a popular bar for creatives. In its early days it was popular among actors from a
nearby theatre group called Vieux-Colombier. Later, writers came in droves. Marcellin Cazes, who took over
ownership in 1918, created the literary prize Prix Cazes to reward authors not successful in literary competitions
before. It has been staged annually since it began in 1935.
Boquinistes
Right Bank and Left Bank of the River Seine
The boquinistes are riverside booksellers who have been around since the 16th century. These booksellers
began as somewhat lawless figures, disliked by the authorities as they were able to get around the censorship (审查)
rules. In the mid-19th century they were granted licenses to sell books, and now they are a major sight along the
Seine. They feature on France’s list of intangible (非物质的) cultural heritage.
Père Lachaise
8 Boulevard de Menilmontant
When it first opened, this cemetery was not a popular burial spot. It was some way away from the city centre
and it had not been blessed by the church. In a marketing ploy, the cemetery acquired the remains of some notable
2literary figures. In decades, the cemetery had become the final resting place of many writers, including Balzac and
Gertrude Stein.
Le Procope
13 Rue de l’Ancienne Comédie
Le Procope was opened in 1686 by Sicilian chef Francesco and is still on business. Located across the road
from a theatre, it became a hotspot for actors, playwrights and poets. Voltaire was said to drink 40 cups of coffee a
day while he worked at a table at the cafe.
21. Who was the prize Prix Cazes intended for?
A．Notable literary figures. B．Actors from Vieux-Colombier.
C．Booksellers on the Seine. D．Losers in literary competition.
22. What makes Boquinistes unique?
A．Being intangible cultural heritage. B．A perfect option for book shoppers.
C．Their popularity among creatives. D．Playwrights and poets’ favour.
23. Of the four literary landmarks, which can not be a consumption spot for visitors?
A．Brasserie Lipp B．Boquinistes
C．Père Lachaise D．Le Procope
B
As a child, I was proud of my southern origin. My own voice reflected my family’s past and present-part
northern Mississippi, part Tennessee, all southern. There was no sound I loved more than my grandmother’s accent:
thick, sweet, warm.
While growing up, I began to realize outside of our region, southerners were often dismissed as uncultured and
ignorant. I was ready to leave behind my tiny town in West Tennessee, starting a new life and jumping at big
chances in some far-off cities. In that embarrassing space between “teen” and “adult”, my accent was a symbol of
everything I thought I hated about my life in the rural South. I feared it would disqualify me from being a noted
magazine writer. I would have to talk less “country”. So I killed a piece of myself. I’m ashamed of it, but I’m more
ashamed that I tried to kill that part of someone else-change Emily’s accent.
I met Emily in college. She was determined to work for the student newspaper, which was where I spent most
of my waking hours, and we became friends. She, unlike me, accepted her roots. Early in our friendship, her mother
asked where I was from, assuming it was somewhere up north. Then I felt my efforts paid off and even wanted to
ignore the mistake.
Emily is two years younger and she cared about my opinion. I advised her to be more like me and hide her
signature Manchester accent. I stressed that throughout our college years, often by making fun of her vowel (元音)
sounds. I told myself I was helping her achieve her dream of working as a reporter. Now, I see that it was actually
about justifying my hiding part of myself.
Grandma Carolyn used to tell me, “Girl, don’t forget where you come from.” Now I truly understand that.
Many things have faded from memory, but this sticks in my mind with uncomfortable clarity. Now that I am grown
and have left the South, it’s important to me.
24. What made the author want to leave her hometown?
A．Appeal of convenience in cities.
B．Her dream of becoming a writer.
C．Outside prejudice against southerners.
D．Her desire for the northern accent.
25. How did the author feel about the mistake of Emily’s mother?
A．Upset. B．Pleased. C．Ashamed. D．Surprised.
326. Why on earth did the author try to change Emily’s accent?
A．To prove herself right. B．To help Emily be a reporter.
C．To make herself influential. D．To protect Emily’s self-dignity.
27. What message does the text want to convey?
A．Stay true to your roots. B．Never do things by halves.
C．Hold on to your dreams. D．Never judge a person by his accent.
C
Scientists at Purdue University created the world’s whitest paint — a discovery that not only adds yet another
choice to the “which white should we paint this wall” dilemma, but also might help the climate crisis.
The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works
through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming.
“When we started this project seven years ago, we had saving energy and fighting climate change in mind,” Ruan
said in a podcast (播客) episode of This Is Purdue. They wanted to create a paint that would reflect sunlight away
from a building, dramatically decreasing the need for air conditioning.
Heating, cooling, and lighting account for 28 percent of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions. And
overusing air conditioning can overwhelm a city’s power grid and cause blackouts (停电). In a Queens blackout in
2006, 175,000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an
alternative to air conditioners in some places.
The paint reflects 98.1% of solar radiation while also giving out infrared (红外线的) heat. Because the paint
takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding
temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1,000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts
of cooling power, the researchers found. “That’s more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses,”
Ruan told This Is Purdue.
You can’t buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market.
While individual action to fight climate change can help save our planet, it’s important to note that the vast majority
of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100 companies. Maybe we can douse (浇) those
companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot.
28. What is known about the paint?
A．It has different colors. B．It doesn’t cost much.
C．It uses heating technology. D．It is climate-friendly.
29. What is the Queens blackout mentioned to show?
A．The poor management of power. B．The significance of the paint.
C．The importance of air conditioning. D．The result of global warming.
30. Which aspect of the paint is talked about in Paragraph 4?
A．Its application. B．Its disadvantage.
C．Its composition. D．Its function.
31. What can be learned from the last paragraph?
A．The quality of the paint needs improving.
B．The paint will bring profits to the 100 companies.
C．Researchers want to see the paint in commercial use.
D．Individual efforts matter in creating the whitest paint.

When we’re angry, we often look for ways to blow off steam — a vent (发泄) session with a friend, a long run,
or even a few rounds of boxing are common options. But, according to new research, this actually isn’t the best
way to cope with anger. These activities can have the opposite effect.
A study published in Clinical Psychology Review shows that mindfulness activities, such as yoga, meditation,
and deep breathing, are much more effective in reducing anger. Sophie Kjærvik, an expert at Virginia
Commonwealth University, led the study at Ohio State University. She was inspired by the rise in popularity of
rage rooms, which promote smashing things as a way to cope with anger. “I wanted to disprove the theory of
expressing anger as a way of coping with it,” she said.
Kjærvik and her team analyzed over 150 studies involving 10,189 participants of different backgrounds. The
analysis was guided by the Schachter-Singer two-factor theory, which states that emotions are guided by
physiological arousal (激活) and cognitive assessment.
Kjærvik wanted to see how arousal levels affect people’s abilities to cope with anger. The team analyzed
activities that increased arousal, such as hitting a bag, jogging, cycling, and swimming, versus arousal-decreasing
activities.
They discovered that mindfulness activities like deep breathing, relaxation, meditation, slow-flow yoga,
progressive muscle relaxation, and taking a timeout all decreased anger levels.
“I think it’s really important to break the myth that if you’re angry you should blow off steam — get it off
your chest,” says Brad Bushman, a professor at Ohio State University. “Venting anger might sound like a good idea,
but there’s not a shred of scientific evidence to support catharsis (宣泄) theory. To reduce anger, it is better to
engage in activities that decrease arousal levels.”
While these findings might contradict popular instincts, the best approach is to use the same strategies we
adopt to combat stress. “Progressive muscle relaxation and general relaxation might be as effective as mindfulness
and meditation,” Kjærvik says. “The same strategies that work for stress also work for anger.”
32. What was the main purpose of Sophie Kjærvik’s study?
A．To promote the Schachter-Singer two-factor theory.
B．To compare different physical activities in reducing anger.
C．To challenge the idea that expressing anger can manage anger.
D．To confirm the function of rage rooms in coping with anger.
33. Which is correct according to the discovery of the study?
A．Rage rooms work in releasing anger.
B．Reducing arousal helps to alleviate anger.
C．Arousal plays the role as an anger extinguisher.
D．Deep breathing and meditation can boost arousal.
34. What is Brad Bushman’s attitude towards catharsis theory?
A．Supportive. B．Neutral. C．Indifferent. D．Skeptical.
35. What might be the best title for the passage?
A．Venting Anger: the Broken Myth for Anger Management
B．Mindfulness Activities: an Alternative to Reducing Anger
C．Arousal Increase: Mindfulness Activities Outperforming Venting
D．Managing Emotions: Physical Activities as an Effective Approach

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
5There are hundreds of genres (流派)of music, so while some might like one kind, others might like something
completely different. Why do people like different kinds of music?
36. At the same time, music can also help us feel like part of a group or a culture, especially
one that shares an interest in a certain kind of music.
Music can also be nostalgic, that is, it creates a kind of longing for the past. Musicians leave behind a footprint
with their music. 37. Even long after the musicians are gone, people still find something in the
musicians’ recordings that they can enjoy.
We may also find that the music we like is strongly tied to our memory. Maybe there was a song that someone
sang to us when we were little that brings up good memories. 38.
When we listen to music that we like, a chemical called dopamine is sometimes released in the brain, which
can make us feel good. 39. There are some algorithms (算法) today that can help pick up on the
kind of music we like. When we are streaming music, some programs will let us like or dislike songs.
People’s taste in music can remain the same in their whole life or it can change many times. But the truth is,
we don’t know all the exact answers to why people like different kinds of music — or sports, or food, or
colors. 40. We are all different people who like different things.
A．It’s music to our ears.
B．Music can be a part of our identity.
C．It becomes a mirror that we are holding up.
D．They leave a permanent mark in people’s lives.
E．Therefore, we might want to listen to a song on repeat.
F．Other times, we might find music can bring up sad memories.
G．There are lots of different factors that can influence our preferences.

In the heart of the busy city of New York, where the sounds of rushing cars never stopped, lived a
sixteen-year-old girl named Lisa. Unlike her classmates, who were often keen on the latest technology, Lisa had a
preference for knitting (编织).
Lisa’s love for knitting was deeply influenced by her mother, who owned a skilled and creative touch with
needles. Her mother’s passion for knitting and generous spirit of helping others always inspired Lisa to follow in
her footsteps and take up knitting as a meaningful hobby.
Lisa was really good at knitting. She liked to make scarves (围巾), gloves, hats and mini bags for her friends
as well as her relatives. Her hats were created in a variety of styles and colors, each one unique and full of
personality. Whether it was a mini bag or a classic scarf, each knitting work was a carefully crafted masterpiece and
a unique gift full of love and warmth. With beauty and practicality, Lisa’s creations never failed to impress.
One freezing morning in the peak of winter, the city had just been blanketed by a snowstorm that had left
many, particularly the homeless, in desperate situation. As Lisa made her way to school, she noticed a shaking
figure under the bridge near her school. It was a homeless old man she often saw on her way, but today he looked
extremely miserable (可怜的). His face was half-hidden under a piece of worn cloth that hardly served as
protection against the cold. Touched by the sight. Lisa decided to give her scarf to the homeless old man. She
approached, handing the scarf to him.
“For me?” the man asked, his eyes widened with surprise.
“Yes! I thought it might help you against the cold,” Lisa said, her breath visible in the cold air.
