Some libraries use unique architecture to encourage visitors to settle down with a new book, or use roving (流动的) libraries to bring books to hard-to-reach populations. However they achieve it, these novel libraries are keeping the magic of reading alive.
Macquarie University Library (Sydney, Australia)
Featuring a green roof, this building, made from recycled materials, was designed to imitate the look of a eucalyptus tree. It is also an art form, using robot cranes to bring requested books to the front desk.
The Camel Library Service (North Eastern Province, Kenya)
To deal with low literacy rates in the desert of Kenya, the government created a roaming library composed of nine camels bringing books to villages. The library travels four days a week serving the region’s disadvantaged people.
Bishan Library (Singapore)
With glass pods of various colors sticking out of the building randomly, this library, built in 2006, is meant to create comfortable yet airy nooks (角落) for reading throughout the building. At the same time, a more wide-open children’s room on the basement level invites interaction while preventing noise from filtering (过滤) upward.
Seikei University Library (Tokyo, Japan)
Libraries are usually known for their quiet atmosphere, but this one encourages conversation. Pritzker Prize-winner Shigeru Ban designed the library with space-age, free-standing soundproofed pods (系统) to respect those who need uninterrupted study, while also being beneficial to other methods of learning; they serve as perfect spots for study groups and lively discussions.

A university lecturer in Linyi Shandong province, has shone a light on the difficulties of food delivery drivers by taking on the role himself for a month and sharing his trials and sufferings online.
Last December, Xing Bin, a lecturer at the College of Literature at Linyi University, was so eager to know about what life and work must be like for a delivery driver, so he decided to sign up and be one from December to January this year. The gig economy (临时工), for better or worse, has exploded in China in recent years, and though many members of the workforce choose to work in the gig economy because of its flexibility (灵活性), others prefer full-time employment.
During the month, Xing worked more than 10 hours and took 30,000 steps a day. He lost 6 kilograms and earned a total of 7,000 yuan. On average, he earned 10 yuan each hour, and 20 yuan at most. “ I was delivering food from early morning till late at night for around 13 hours a day. When I had classes, I delivered food for two hours early in the morning, and after dinner I continued delivering until one or two in the morning,” Xing said.
“Before, if I got a call from a delivery worker, I might delay answering it. But now I will always answer it immediately because I know they might be riding an electric bike while making the call, which is very dangerous,” said Xing, adding that he now understands the difficulties of delivery workers better and realizes how hard they work to make a living.
“During that month, I tasted the bitterness and the happiness of this job with my heart. I delivered over 2,000 orders, and three of the people who ordered impressed me a lot.” he said.
4. Why did Xing try the job of a delivery driver
A. Out of curiosity. B. Owing to its high pay.
C. Because of its flexibility. D. For its low career requirements.
5. What is the purpose of using numbers in paragraph 3

As AI becomes popular, researchers have noticed its influence on the environment. Training an AI system requires huge computing power and electricity, and the resulting CO2 emissions (排放) are one way AI affects the environment. But its environmental effect is more than its carbon (碳)footprint.
Jesse Dodge, a scientist at the Allen Institute, says, "The influence of Al systems is going to be from their applications, not the cost of training them." David Rolnick, a computer scientist at McGill University, compares AI to a hammer (锤子) “The main effect of a hammer is what is being hammered,” he says, "not what is in the hammer." Just like a hammer which can either destroy things or build a house, Al can hurt or help the environment.
In 2019, ExxonMobil, an oil company, said it would use Microsoft’s app Azure. With the Al technology, it would increase its production and create billions of dollars. This means Microsoft's AI is directly contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. This is not the only AI application that could be environmentally harmful. AI behind the ads that jump out on Instagram or Facebook pages pushes customers to spend more on products like clothes. This in turn causes more emissions through more production and delivery.
But on the other side of the coin, there are AI applications that can help deal with environmental problems, such as the destruction caused by hurricanes. One such application is xView2, a program started by a U. S. organization. It can recognize buildings damaged and people trapped in natural disasters, reducing danger and saving time for rescuers.
AI could be a valuable tool in the fight against climate change—if the Al industry can reduce its harmful climate effects. "Both AI and climate rules have roles to play." Rolnick says. When creating Al rules, he suggests considering its applications, emissions, and other production costs. Further, Dodge adds that those AI professionals should help set up some value systems to limit the technology's use.
8. Where does the effect of AI systems on the environment come from according to Dodge
A. The popularity of AI. B. The emissions of CO2.
C. The way of applying AI. D. The cost of AI training.
9. How does the writer develop Paragraph 4
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples.
C. By comparing facts. D. By explaining details.
10. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Rules for AI can be helpful. B. Al's advance should be limited.
C. Production costs will be lower. D. AI plays a role in making rules.
11. What is the main idea of the passage
A. AI applications are environmentally harmful.
B. AI affects the environment by CO2 emissions.
C. AI is effective in solving environmental problems.
D. AI's environmental effect goes beyond its emissions.
D
While some critics claim that history curricula (课程) teach unnecessary content, others argue that these curricula need to be more comprehensive. Despite ongoing debates about content, one universal truth remains: strong history curricula are necessary for developing the productive citizens of tomorrow.
The greatest academic value that history curricula provide is not the recall of important dates and names. Rather, understanding the historical inquiry process is the most important component. This process teaches students how to become critical thinkers and understand the dynamic nature of the telling of history.
Through strong history curricula, students are shown both a variety of primary and secondary sources and are taught to critique them. This is where the historical inquiry process begins. Students not only begin to analyze and ask questions about the content, but they also learn about the author’s credibility and potential bias (偏见). Students are then able to contextualize the information they learn and can think more critically about historical con text and those who tell it.
With this framework, students can then understand the causal relationship between human nature, values, philosophy, actions, and their consequences. It teaches students to recognize recurrent themes and lessons that are necessary to understand modern society. Most importantly, it teaches students to develop a healthy skepticism (怀疑论) when presented with information today because our actions are history in the making.
Forty years ago, renowned scholar James Fitzgerald argued that no education is complete without the teaching of historical inquiry. He believed that the only way to move forward in life is to understand what’s behind us.
Today, this principle still holds true. Students take both the factual knowledge and the historical inquiry skills they learn in the classroom and apply them to real world circumstances. Throughout their lives, students who are taught with strong history curricula will take the lessons they learn from our predecessors and become involved, active, productive citizens who want to create a history that tomorrow’s students will be proud to learn about.
12. What is the biggest academic significance of history learning
A. Passing down Chinese culture. B. Grasping historical inquiry skills.
C. Making people more knowledgeable. D. Enriching people’s everyday life.
13. What does the underlined word “critique” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Protect. B. Combine. C. Comment. D. Remember.
14. Why is James Fitzgerald mentioned in the passage
A. To stress the importance of history.
B. To point out the essence of education.
C. To indicate famous people learn from history.
D. To show history contributes to people’s achievements.
15. What can be the best title for the passage
A. It Is the People that Create History
B. History Pushes the Wheel of the Times
C. History Curricula Are Gaining More Attention
D. History Curricula Shape Tomorrow’s Decision Makers

Tomato Changed My Life
Doing things-without being planned was never my strength.
As a 14-year-old, I would refuse to go for walks around the block with my friends if I was the least bit behind in my schoolwork.
Unlike most teenagers, I lived not in my room, but in an unused kitchen upstairs where I spread my books and papers on a large round table. I spent considerable time there, working continuously for hours, and my mother worried. She would try to lure (引诱) me away. “Come and watch the parade!” she would call from downstairs. “All neighbors are out there!” She thought of all kinds of tricks-the swimming pool, ice cream, stray cats and turtles-to remove me from my -studies, but nothing ever worked.
Later, in college, the pattern continued. The library and my college dorm replaced the unused kitchen at home. When spring came along friends would stop by my dorm or peer into my library room to persuade me to play Frisbee on the lawn. “No, I would almost always say.” I have too much to do.
My college study days were gone, but not my need and love for schedules. My friends and sisters tried to keep me away from my plans, but they were hardly ever successful.
This summer, though, while house sitting for my parents, I was persuaded to change my plans in the most unexpected way. The sight of tomatoes growing in my mother’s garden lured me out of my tightly scheduled world. They drew me with the power of a lover’s gaze. Hundreds of them were turning ripe and red by the minute, decorating the garden like decorations on a Christmas tree.
“If I have time, I’ll make tomato sauce (番茄酱).” I told myself. But my long week in the house by myself was already filled with things to do: writing, and finishing a project that I brought home from the office.
Then, watching the fascinating tomatoes continuously falling to the ground in ever-greater numbers, again I mentally argued about all the things I had planned and needed to do.

On average, he earned 10 yuan each hour, and 20 yuan at most. “ I was delivering food from early morning till late at night for around 13 hours a day. When I had classes, I delivered food for two hours early in the morning, and after dinner I continued delivering until one or two in the morning,” Xing said.

细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Last December, Xing Bin, a lecturer at the College of Literature at Linyi University, was so eager to know about what life and work must be like for a delivery driver, so he decided to sign up and be one from December to January this year.(去年12月,临沂大学文学院讲师邢斌非常想知道外卖骑手的生活和工作应该是什么样子,所以他决定报名并从今年12月到1月成为一名骑手。)”可知,他出于对外卖骑手的生活和工作的好奇,所以尝试了这份工作。故选A。
【5题详解】
目的意图题。根据第三段“During the month, Xing worked more than 10 hours and took 30,000 steps a day. He lost 6 kilograms and earned a total of 7,000 yuan. On average, he earned 10 yuan each hour, and 20 yuan at most. ‘I was delivering food from early morning till late at night for around 13 hours a day. When I had classes, I delivered food for two hours early in the morning, and after dinner I continued delivering until one or two in the morning,’ Xing said.(在这个月里,邢一天工作10多个小时,走3万步。他瘦了6公斤,总共挣了7000元。他平均每小时挣10元,最多挣20元。邢说:‘我每天从凌晨到深夜送饭大约13个小时。有课时,我一大早送饭两个小时,晚饭后我一直送到凌晨一两点。’)”可知,本段讲述了邢斌的工作日常,他每天工作很长时间,走很远的路,身体都消瘦了,但时薪并不高,由此可知,主要通过这些数字描述了外卖员工作的辛苦。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中邢斌的话“During that month, I tasted the bitterness and the happiness of this job with my heart. I delivered over 2,000 orders, and three of the people who ordered impressed me a lot.(在那一个月里,我用心品尝了这份工作的酸甜苦辣。我交付了2000多份订单,其中三位订单的人给我留下了深刻印象。)”可知,邢斌说有三位点餐的人给他留下了深刻的印象,由此可推测出,接下来文章应该会着重描述邢斌对这三位点餐人的回忆。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“A university lecturer in Linyi, Shandong province, has shone a light on the difficulties of food delivery drivers by taking on the role himself for a month and sharing his trials and sufferings online.(山东临沂的一位大学讲师亲自担任外卖骑手一个月,并在网上分享了他的艰辛和痛苦,从而揭示了送餐司机的困难。)”并结合下文的具体讲述可知,本文主要讲述了大学讲师邢斌通过亲身实践,体验到了外卖员的艰辛,对这些群体多了份理解,他的故事告诉我们,知识源于实践。故选D。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了随着人工智能的普及,研究人员已经注意到它对环境的影响。训练一个人工智能系统需要巨大的计算能力和电力,而由此产生的二氧化碳排放是人工智能影响环境的一种方式。但它对环境的影响不仅仅是它的碳足迹。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Jesse Dodge, a scientist at the Allen Institute, says, "The influence of Al systems is going to be from their applications, not the cost of training them."”(艾伦研究所(Allen Institute)的科学家杰西 道奇(Jesse Dodge)表示:“人工智能系统的影响将来自它们的应用,而不是训练它们的成本。”)可知,根据道奇的说法,AI系统对环境的影响来自人工智能的应用方式。故选C项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“But on the other side of the coin, there are AI applications that can help deal with environmental problems, such as the destruction caused by hurricanes. One such application is xView2, a program started by a U. S. organization. It can recognize buildings damaged and people trapped in natural disasters, reducing danger and saving time for rescuers.”(但另一方面,有些人工智能应用程序可以帮助处理环境问题,比如飓风造成的破坏。xView2就是这样一个应用程序,它是由一个美国组织启动的程序。它可以识别在自然灾害中受损的建筑物和被困的人,减少危险,节省救援人员的时间。)可推知,作者通过举例来展开第四段内容。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“AI could be a valuable tool in the fight against climate change—if the Al industry can reduce its harmful climate effects. "Both AI and climate rules have roles to play." Rolnick says. When creating Al rules, he suggests considering its applications, emissions, and other production costs. Further, Dodge adds that those AI professionals should help set up some value systems to limit the technology's use.”(如果人工智能产业能够减少其对气候的有害影响,那么人工智能将成为对抗气候变化的宝贵工具。“人工智能和气候规则都可以发挥作用。”Rolnick说。在制定人工智能规则时,他建议考虑它的应用、排放和其他生产成本。此外,道奇补充说,这些人工智能专业人士应该帮助建立一些价值体系,以限制该技术的使用。)可推知,从最后一段我们能推断出人工智能的规则可能会有帮助。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“As AI becomes popular, researchers have noticed its influence on the environment. Training an AI system requires huge computing power and electricity, and the resulting CO2 emissions(排放)are one way AI affects the environment. But its environmental effect is more than its carbor footprint.”(随着人工智能的普及,研究人员已经注意到它对环境的影响。训练一个人工智能系统需要巨大的计算能力和电力,而由此产生的二氧化碳排放是人工智能影响环境的一种方式。但它对环境的影响不仅仅是它的碳足迹。)可知,文章主要讲的是人工智能对环境的影响超出了它的二氧化碳排放。故选D项。

While some critics claim that history curricula (课程) teach unnecessary content, others argue that these curricula need to be more comprehensive. Despite ongoing debates about content, one universal truth remains: strong history curricula are necessary for developing the productive citizens of tomorrow.
The greatest academic value that history curricula provide is not the recall of important dates and names. Rather, understanding the historical inquiry process is the most important component. This process teaches students how to become critical thinkers and understand the dynamic nature of the telling of history.
Through strong history curricula, students are shown both a variety of primary and secondary sources and are taught to critique them. This is where the historical inquiry process begins. Students not only begin to analyze and ask questions about the content, but they also learn about the author’s credibility and potential bias (偏见). Students are then able to contextualize the information they learn and can think more critically about historical con text and those who tell it.
With this framework, students can then understand the causal relationship between human nature, values, philosophy, actions, and their consequences. It teaches students to recognize recurrent themes and lessons that are necessary to understand modern society. Most importantly, it teaches students to develop a healthy skepticism (怀疑论) when presented with information today because our actions are history in the making.
Forty years ago, renowned scholar James Fitzgerald argued that no education is complete without the teaching of historical inquiry. He believed that the only way to move forward in life is to understand what’s behind us.
Today, this principle still holds true. Students take both the factual knowledge and the historical inquiry skills they learn in the classroom and apply them to real world circumstances. Throughout their lives, students who are taught with strong history curricula will take the lessons they learn from our predecessors and become involved, active, productive citizens who want to create a history that tomorrow’s students will be proud to learn about.
12. What is the biggest academic significance of history learning
A. Passing down Chinese culture. B. Grasping historical inquiry skills.
C. Making people more knowledgeable. D. Enriching people’s everyday life.
13. What does the underlined word “critique” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Protect. B. Combine. C. Comment. D. Remember.
14. Why is James Fitzgerald mentioned in the passage
A. To stress the importance of history.
B. To point out the essence of education.
C. To indicate famous people learn from history.
D. To show history contributes to people’s achievements.
15. What can be the best title for the passage
A. It Is the People that Create History
B. History Pushes the Wheel of the Times
C. History Curricula Are Gaining More Attention
D. History Curricula Shape Tomorrow’s Decision Makers
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要分析了学习历史学科对人们的重要意义,认为学习历史能够让学生们成为积极主动富有成效的公民。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The greatest academic value that history curricula provide is not the recall of important dates and names. Rather, understanding the historical inquiry process is the most important component.(历史课程提供的最大学术价值不是回忆重要的日期和名字。相反,了解历史调查过程是最重要的组成部分)”可知,作者认为学习历史的最大的意义在于了解历史探究过程。故选B。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段划线词后的“This is where the historical inquiry process begins. Students not only begin to analyze and ask questions about the content, but they also learn about the author's credibility and potential bias (偏见). Students are then able to contextualize the information they learn and can think more critically about historical con text and those who tell it.(这就是历史调查过程开始的地方。学生们不仅要开始分析文章内容并提出问题,还要了解作者的可信度和潜在偏见。这样,学生们就能够将他们所学到的信息语境化,并能更批判性地思考历史背景和那些讲述历史的人)”可知,此处介绍如何对一些资料进行历史探究,了解作者的可信度、偏见以便能更批判性地思考历史背景和那些讲述历史的人。由此推知,划线词critique与comment“评论”意思一致。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Forty years ago, renowned scholar James Fitzgerald argued that no education is complete without the teaching of historical inquiry. He believed that the only way to move forward in life is to understand what's behind us.(40年前,著名学者詹姆斯·菲茨杰拉德认为,没有历史探究的教育是不完整的。他认为,在生活中前进的唯一途径是了解我们身后的事情)”可推知,文章中提到了詹姆斯·菲茨杰拉德,以强调历史的重要性。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Despite ongoing debates about content, one universal truth remains: strong history curricula are necessary for developing the productive citizens of tomorrow.(尽管关于内容的争论仍在继续,但一个普遍的真理仍然存在:强有力的历史课程对于培养未来有生产力的公民是必要的)”及下文论述可知。文章主要分析了学习历史学科对人们的重要意义,认为学习历史能够让学生们成为积极主动富有成效的公民。由此可知,D. History Curricula Shape Tomorrow’s Decision Makers(历史课程塑造未来的决策者)适合作本文最佳标题。故选D

As a 14-year-old, I would refuse to go for walks around the block with my friends if I was the least bit behind in my schoolwork.
Unlike most teenagers, I lived not in my room, but in an unused kitchen upstairs where I spread my books and papers on a large round table. I spent considerable time there, working continuously for hours, and my mother worried. She would try to lure (引诱) me away. “Come and watch the parade!” she would call from downstairs. “All neighbors are out there!” She thought of all kinds of tricks-the swimming pool, ice cream, stray cats and turtles-to remove me from my -studies, but nothing ever worked.
Later, in college, the pattern continued. The library and my college dorm replaced the unused kitchen at home. When spring came along friends would stop by my dorm or peer into my library room to persuade me to play Frisbee on the lawn. “No, I would almost always say.” I have too much to do.
My college study days were gone, but not my need and love for schedules. My friends and sisters tried to keep me away from my plans, but they were hardly ever successful.
This summer, though, while house sitting for my parents, I was persuaded to change my plans in the most unexpected way. The sight of tomatoes growing in my mother’s garden lured me out of my tightly scheduled world. They drew me with the power of a lover’s gaze. Hundreds of them were turning ripe and red by the minute, decorating the garden like decorations on a Christmas tree.
“If I have time, I’ll make tomato sauce (番茄酱).” I told myself. But my long week in the house by myself was already filled with things to do: writing, and finishing a project that I brought home from the office.
Then, watching the fascinating tomatoes continuously falling to the ground in ever-greater numbers, again I mentally argued about all the things I had planned and needed to do.

【答案】Finally, I gave in. I picked up the recipe that I had copied down from a friend. “Prepare a little bit of water with garlic and onions. Add…,” it read. I scarched for 20 minutes in the kitchen cabinet and pulled out a huge white china pot. I washed the tomatoes, cutting away sections that were spoiled, and sliced and threw them into the pot. I swayed the watery mixture as if I were washing gold. Meanwhile, turning on the stereo, I sang along with Billy Joel and reviewed a step I’d picked up in my swing-dance class.
A month later, my parents came back. They found a daughter who had discovered the beauty of flexibility. I shared stories of my tomato adventures, and we laughed together. My mom, the same woman who used to try and lure me away from my books, now shared in my newfound passion for the kitchen. As I stood in the kitchen, surrounded by the rich flavour of tomato sauce, I realized the importance of allowing life to surprise us. Those tomatoes had taught me a valuable lesson: balance in life is not just about sticking to schedules and plans; it’s also about embracing the unexpected, reminding me that there’s a world of joy beyond the limitations of a strict schedule.
