Some of the Most Famous Modern Architectures
Barcelona Pavilion (Barcelona, Spain. 1929)

Villa Dirickz (Brussels, Belgium, 1933)
Villa Dirickz has eye-catching blocky features, glass works and white concrete surrounded by greenery. The villa is equipped with advanced facilities like a cinema. It was ignored till a developer bought it in 2007 and devoted all possible resources to its repairs.
Isokon Building (London, UK, 1934)
The building, consisting of 32 apartments, is still in use today. It also includes staff rooms and a large garage. The apartments have a shared kitchen for people to prepare food freely. A shared gallery is built in the garage to tell people about the history of the building.
Neue National Galerie (Berlin, Germany, 1968)
The museum hosts an art collection that dates back to the carly years of the 20th century. Its typical modernist design includes a cantilevered roof and flat appearances. The building is surrounded by a sculptured landscape.

Today is Mother's Day. All the children have prepared a musical selection to sing for their moms. My dad, who is a teacher at a primary school, is helping an autistic (自闭的) 10- year-old boy hold long enough for the singing to end. My dad holds the boy's hand tightly, and then finally encourages him to finish the singing. Suddenly the boy bites my dad's hand, rushes to the front of the stand, and dramatically cries, "That man tries to control me!" My father feels surprised and is at a loss. We've all been there. How many times have our own children been naughty, making us have no choice but to shake our heads and avoid eye contact with the rest of the world
Obviously not every outbreak happens at school: There are plenty of stories in the super- market. Once, I took my 3-year-old child to see a funny movie but we had to leave early because of his noise. Another time, I looked helplessly up at the fast food worker who my child just called "fat". I blamed him as usual. What's the point in telling these stories So the next time your child makes noise in public, instead, you can just smile, trying to quiet him or her. And when your nephew starts running up and down the aisles at church, you can chase after him with confidence, remembering to say, "You are running so fast but please slow down!"
And when it seems like all that anyone has to offer is criticism, just remember that you are not alone. We've all lived through the same experiences. Most of us understand what you are going through. No, I don't have much advice. Just a big "thank you" for all the moms, dads, uncles, aunts and friends who have and know naughty children. Keep going-you are doing a great job.

27. What is the text mainly about
A. Public manners. B. Child education.
C. Music inspiration. D. Entertaining stories.

Margot doesn't have a garbage can. It doesn't need one because Margot simply doesn't cause anything to get thrown away. The restaurant doesn't allow any type of single-use plastic. Margot, which opened last year, is one of the small but growing restaurants around the world aiming to avoid not only food leftovers, but also any garbage.
"Food waste has been increasing as an issue for restaurants over the last 10 years, " says Calvin Brown. He runs the Sustainable Restaurant Association. Based in the United Kingdom, the organization helps food business become more environmentally responsible. He says that food waste contributes to releasing the greenhouse gas, so there is strong motivation to reduce waste and help the environment.
In the USA, food waste and packing account for nearly half of the material sent to land- fills. Restaurants from McDonald's to Starbucks are addressing this issue with "no straw Mondays" and limits on single-serving plastic, but a handful of restaurateurs are trying to get rid of rubbish entirely. There's also economic case to be made for waste reduction. One study shows that restaurants save seven dollars for every dollar invested in anti-waste methods.
Avoiding food waste is the first and perhaps most obvious challenge for sustainable restaurants. Doug McMaster, chef at Silo in London, only serves a set menu. This removes the worry that one particular item won't sell well, and will spoil in the post ( 肥) is a necessity as well. Nolla (meaning "zero" in Finnish) in Helsinki, Finland is giving compost to its suppliers as well as its diners. Nolla also has food-tracking software more commonly used among corporate food service companies to keep track of what sells and what rots.
Sometimes restaurants call themselves environmentally friendly, but they might just be using the label. Calvin offers some pointers on what to look for to make sure a restaurant is truly committed to sustainability.
28. What does Margot feature
A. Its large size. B. Its opening hours.
C. Its plastic garbage cans. D. Its zero-waste goal.
29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Ways of packaging food.
B. The issue of investing in services.
C. The importance of environmental protection.
D. Efforts of some restaurants to reduce rubbish.
30. Which of the following does Nolla try to do
A. Only serve a set menu.
B. Hardly use refrigerators.
C. Supply compost to its customers.
D. Keep track of diners' preferences.
31. What does Calvin think restaurants should do
A. Contribute to sustainable development of the food industry.
B. Save money on dealing with kitchen garbage.
C. Use eco-friendly labels.
D. Expand food business.

The Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and University of Central Lanca- shire (UCLan) share findings of a project to improve student engagement with science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
It's long been acknowledged that students from disadvantaged backgrounds are under- represented in science, technology, engineering and mathematics careers. Now, research conducted by UCLan and funded by STFC shows the causes of this problem and points to innovative solutions. The Blackpool Physics: Inspire, Engage, Research (PIER) project found that primary school children from low socio-economic areas are just as interested in science but lack knowledge about possible science careers.
The PIER project is following a group of pupils as they progress from Grade 6 to Grade 9, using surveys, interviews and other assessments to measure interest in science. These initial findings suggest that attempts to increase science participation among young people should not simply promote the subject as “fun" or "interesting". Instead, greater impact could be achieved by demonstrating clearly how science can open possible future career opportunities.
Many of the pupils taking part in the study understood that studying science could be useful but few could explain why, suggesting a need for greater education about STEM careers. As well as broadening our understanding of the issue, the PIER project is solving the problem head on. The team has carried out a variety of activities each year for the participants, including "meet the scientists" events, trips to UCLan's Alston Observatory as well as family science events at school.
Lead Researcher and STFC Fellow in Public Engagement, Professor Robert Walsh, said, "Much government policy towards boosting science in higher education focuses on an assumed lack of interest and desire in low-socioeconomic groups. " However, the enthusiasm is already there and this "hidden science identity" needs to be revealed and translated into real-life prospects for these young people. We're recommending that programs instead allow young people to explore their science identity more fully and provide innovative ways to discover the jobs that studying science may lead to.
32. What do people generally believe about poor students
A. They have no interest in STEM careers.
B. They are not engaged enough in science.
C. They are more representative of science.
D. They have many character disadvantages.
33. What does the PIER project pay more attention to
A. Assessing pupils' performance.
B. Increasing the surveys of pupils.
C. Demonstrating the potential value of science.
D. Promoting the subject as “fun" or "interesting".
34. Why does the team conduct various activities
A. To improve students' understanding of STEM careers.
B. To promote teaching-related careers' development.
C. To meet the pupils' needs for school events.
D. To boost science development.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. The PIER Project Helps Poor Pupils Engage in Science
B. How Does the PIER Project Come into Being
C. Increase Pupils' Learning Awareness
D. What Is the Definition of PIER
