Every holiday season,Patricia Gallagher fills her car with stuffed animals and drives around Philadelphia.She gives them not to kids but to seniors.
Patricia’s holiday tradition started in 2009.“I just got this idea to call two nursing homes at random and ask if I could come and read It Was the Night Before Christmas,” she said.She brought some of her kids’ stuffed animals for the seniors to hold while she read.“But when I went to gather them and take them back to go to the next nursing home,nobody wanted to give up their stuffed animals,” she added.It was then and there that she realized the power of a simple holiday gift.

You may have wondered how lavender is used for social anxiety.But first, just what is lavender Lavender,also known as English or garden lavender,is a herb native to the Mediterranean region.Historically,lavender was used to mummify bodies in Egypt,in baths in Greece and Rome,and for curing the broken skin and mental health purposes.Today,lavender is used as a traditional or complementary remedy for relaxation,to reduce anxiety,and depression,as well as for diseases such as stomach upset and headaches.

Ⅰ

Ⅲ
Lavender is usually used in the form of an essential oil as part of aromatherapy.The scent is inhaled,or the oil is applied to the skin,which will benefit the anxious people quickly.Dried lavender can also be used to make a tea or liquid extract.Lavender may also be taken in pill form.Lavender tea can be made by using 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried leaves for 15 minutes in a cup of boiling water.In liquid extract form,no more than 60 drops of lavender should be taken in a day.Before taking lavender in liquid form,you should read the product label and discuss the dose with a qualified health care provider.

Deveza’s mother was on the waiting list for a kidney transplant(肾移植). Deveza wanted to donate one of her own kidneys—but she was turned down because she might develop the same health problems as her mother in later life.
Deveza came up with a different plan.In 2017,she started the world’s first paired exchange of different organs between living donors,exchanging half her liver(肝) for someone else’s kidney.A case study of the organ exchange has now been published,and the surgeons who were involved are calling for more exchanges like this.“You can imagine the enormous impact for mixed organ extended chains,” says John Roberts,a surgeon at University of California,San Francisco.
Ⅰ
Ⅱ
Ⅲ
Most organ transplants come from people who have died,but there are never enough organs.As most people can manage with just one of their kidneys,people with kidney failure are increasingly receiving donated organs from relatives or friends.If someone wants to donate but their immune system is unsuited,doctors may be able to find pairs of would-be donors who can each give a kidney to the other’s relative.
When Deveza was looking into such chains,she came across research describing the idea of trading a kidney with the only other organ generally taken from a living donor—the liver.She suggested the idea to many hospitals before she finally contacted Roberts,who saw the idea’s potential.
Ⅰ
Ⅱ
Ⅲ
Deveza was assessed to be in good enough health to donate part of her liver.It then took 18 months to find Annie Simmons,in Idaho,whose liver was unsuitable to use as a transplant for her sister with severe liver disease.They drew up a plan:Simmons would donate a kidney to Deveza’s mother,and in return,Deveza would give half her liver to Simmons’ sister.The hospital gave the go-ahead and the four operations took place on the same day successfully.
The team hopes that the ground-breaking case will inspire more people to consider doing the same.Roberts says that direct exchanges involving two donors could enable up to thirty extra living-donor liver transplants a year—a ten percent increase.

Growing up,Espino may have been better at sports than he was at graffiti(涂鸦),but his memories of hanging out with graffiti-writer friends and looking through graffiti books have stayed with him.After college,he went into the world of real estate,but continued to collect art.
A few years later,Espino began selling prints and creative objects at local events.In May 2022,he opened a Culture Gallery.“I wanted to see what it’s like to run a gallery and I wanted to help artists learn and make money from their artworks,” he explains.
Ⅰ

Ⅲ
Ⅳ
The space caught the attention of Lou Jiménez,who is now the gallery’s director.Jiménez shares Espino’s vision to support local artists.“He comes from a different background and is leading by example,” she says of his real estate background.“He’s taking a huge risk because it requires a lot of investment and there is no art market here,so I appreciate the fact that we’re trying to expand that.”
Espino admits he initially underestimated how challenging sales can be. Even with this realization,his sights are set on success,and he’s already put himself in a “bigger mindset” to steadily accomplish that.
Ⅰ

Ⅳ
Espino hopes taking artists to other cities will provide the encouragement they might need to pursue a career in the arts.From his businessman’s perspective,Espino feels people need to be taught on the value of supporting local talent.“A lot of people in the community need to be explained to how much difference it makes to the community to invest in local art and as sad as that is,they just don’t see it or hear it,” he says.
Ⅰ

Ⅳ
Not one to back down from a challenge,Espino and his team have the passion and determination to construct a platform that will help local artists and,if all goes according to his plan,they hope to have a significant impact on the local arts community and culture for many years to come.

The world’s first robotic self-portraits(自画像),painted by an robot called Ai-Da,have been displayed at a new art exhibit in London.The surprisingly accurate images question the role of artificial intelligence(AI) in human society and challenge the idea that art is totally a human trait(特征),according to her creators.
Ai-Da is a life-size android artist powered by AI that can paint,sculpt,and talk.Ai-Da is designed to look and act like a human woman with a female voice.She is named after Ada Lovelace,the pioneering English mathematician who is considered one of the first computer programmers.
Ⅰ
Ⅱ
Ⅲ
Ⅳ
In the past,Ai-Da’s work was made up of abstract paintings based on complex mathematical models,and her first exhibition raised over $1 million in art sales.Now Ai-Da has created what are believed to be the first self-portraits made by a machine.
Three of these robot selfies went on display at the Design Museum on May 18 in an exhibition titled “Ai-Da:Portrait of the Robot,” which is free to the public and will remain on display until Aug.29.
“These images are meant to unsettle,” said Aidan Meller,the gallery owner behind the creation of Ai-Da.“They are meant to raise questions about where we are going.What is our role as humans if so much can be copied through technology ”
Ⅰ
Ⅱ
Ⅲ
Ⅳ
Ai-Da’s new self-portraits are a combination of constantly updated AI,inbuilt programming and advanced robotics.Her eyes are actually cameras that allow her to “look” at what she is painting or sculpting,in this case,herself, and copy it.Ai-Da did not decide to create the self-portraits;rather,her creators gave her those instructions.Ai-Da’s creators hope that her existence will make us think more about the role of technology,in particular,AI,in our everyday lives.
【语篇解读】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是世界上第一批由名为Ai-Da的机器人绘制的自画像已在伦敦的一个新艺术展上亮相。

6.Why are three robot selfies displayed at the Design Museum
A.To enhance Ai-Da’s sense of achievement.
B.To increase the gallery’s popularity with locals.
C.To raise money for creating abstract paintings.
D.To arouse people’s reflection on the role of technology.
√
细节理解题。根据文章第五段中“They are meant to raise questions about where we are going.What is our role as humans if so much can be copied through technology ”可知,画像的展出旨在引起人们对技术的作用的思考。
Ⅰ

7.What can be inferred about Ai-Da from the last paragraph
A.She helps creators make decisions.
B.She is trained in photo techniques.
C.She has no self-awareness actually.
D.She is programmed to auto updates.
√
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“Ai-Da did not decide to create the self-portraits;rather,her creators gave her those instructions.”可知,Ai-Da实际上并没有自我意识,而是她的创造者给出了指示。

8.What is the best title for the text
A.The Far Reaching Impact of Art
B.The Essential Role of High-tech
C.An Art Exhibit:Selfies Without a Self
D.Ai-Da:the First AI-powered Robot Artist
√
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段中“The world’s first robotic self-portraits, painted by an robot called Ai-Da,have been displayed at a new art exhibit in London.”可知,文章主要讲述了伦敦的新艺术展上展出了机器人Ai-Da绘制的世界上首批机器人自画像,但这位艺术家没有主观意识,故C项“艺术展:没有自我的自画像”符合文章标题。

Being productive is not working every day 15 hours without any break. 1 If you can become more productive,you will be able to save the most valuable things you have:your time! Here are some tips that I usually use to improve my productivity level.
You need to have a physical and digital working environment that motivates you to work.Make sure to remove any distractions on your desk, including your phone or other things that could ruin your concentration. 2 Yes,I’m talking about these people who have so many files that they can’t see their wallpaper anymore.

3 Personally,I like working on different things during my day. Working in a field should not be an excuse to just work in that specific field. There are so many fields to discover on this earth.For example,I work in computer science.If I’m only doing programming during my day,I get bored. So I write articles about things that I like. 4
Moreover,don’t force yourself to do something if you have spent more than 30 minutes trying to start it.It’s okay to postpone,you will do it another time.You just have to be conscious of the reason why you postponed it.If you are feeling overwhelmed,it’s a good way to do something to relax you. 5 Then go back to what you have postponed and you could be more productive.
Ⅰ

Ⅳ
A.That’s the same idea with your desktop.
B.They could be about computer but not necessarily.
C.Diversifying your fields is another action you can take.
D.You can’t be fully productive if you don’t have energy.
E.It is just being able to spend less time by being efficient.
F.Clean your desk and sort out your folders on your desktop.
G.Just take a nap,do sports or do whatever makes you feel good.

Last Saturday,I just visited an exhibition titled “Meeting Artists” held by our city’s museum.The exhibition attracted many masters and amateurs at home and abroad.Many artworks including Chinese handwriting and landscape paintings from ancient and modern times were on show.The host explained every work in details on the spot.The exhibition left a deep impression on me.In my view,it not only promoted the inheritance of traditional Chinese culture but strengthened our national pride as well.I hope there will be more activities like this in the future.(共31张PPT)

When Roosevelt was a kid,his doctors claimed that he was too weak to live a normal life like most children of his age.They strongly recommended him to avoid participation in any physical activities,fearing that it could worsen his health condition and potentially lead to his death.Their opinions implied that he would face up to a life full of all kinds of limitations.Instead of permitting their limiting beliefs about what he could do and achieve,he chose to live a meaningful life.

He continued to play sports when he got to college.In fact,he didn’t just play,but he excelled in both boxing and rowing,both of which require astonishing levels of strength and endurance.When Roosevelt graduated from college,his doctors were still not completely sure about his health condition. They still believed that he would be putting himself in serious danger,because his heart problems had not improved.They firmly believed that it would be best to find a desk job for him after completing a college degree.Once again, Roosevelt decided to challenge himself to his physical limits by living an extremely energetic adult life.In about every field he took part,he would aim to push his physical limits.Impressively,he was excellent as an explorer,a hunter, an author,a soldier and a politician.

A multi-institutional team of researchers conducted the first study to evaluate how the duration of nightly sleep early in the semester affects first year college students’ end-of-semester grade point average(GPA).Using Fitbit sleep trackers,they found that students on average sleep 6.5 hours a night,but negative outcomes accumulate when students received less than six hours of sleep a night.The results are available in the Feb.13 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Sleep guidelines recommend teenagers get 8 to 10 hours of sleep every night.Many college students experience irregular and insufficient sleep.
Ⅰ
Ⅱ

David Creswell,the William S.Dietrich Ⅱ Professor in Psychology and Neuroscience at the Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences,led a team of researchers to evaluate the relationship between sleep and GPA. “Animal studies have shown how critical sleep is for learning and memory,” said Creswell.“Here we show how this work translates to humans.The less nightly sleep a first year college student gets at the beginning of the school term predicts lower GPA at the end of the term.Lack of sleep may be hurting students’ ability to learn in their college classrooms.”
Ⅰ
Ⅱ
Ⅲ
The study evaluated more than 600 first-year students across five studies at three universities.The students wore wrist Fitbit devices to monitor and record their sleep patterns.The researchers found that students in the study sleep on average 6.5 hours a night.More surprisingly,the researchers found that students who receive less than six hours of sleep experienced a pronounced decline in academic performance.In addition,each hour of sleep lost corresponded to a 0.07 decrease in end-of-term GPA.
Ⅰ
Ⅱ
Ⅲ
“Once you start dipping(下降)below six hours,you are starting to accumulate massive sleep debt that can impair a student’s health and study habits,compromising the whole system,” said Creswell.“Most surprising to me was that no matter what we did to make the effect go away,it persisted.”

A.Change. B.Damage.
C.Improve. D.Attack.
√
词义猜测题。根据第四段中“More surprisingly,the researchers found that students who receive less than six hours of sleep experienced a pronounced decline in academic performance.”的提示可知,睡眠不足6小时的学生学习成绩出现明显下滑,再根据画线部分的后半句“compromising the whole system”的提示可知,一旦你的睡眠时间开始低于6小时,就会开始积累大量的睡眠债,这会损害学生的健康和学习习惯。故此处“impair”的含义是“损害”。故选B项。

A.Sleep can influence college students’ learning.
B.Many college students experience insufficient sleep.
C.College students have poor academic performance for lack of sleep.

As everything else,some jobs were more interesting,and the children were eager to be given one of the interesting ones.When giving them out,the teacher took into account which children had been most responsible during the previous year,and those children were usually the ones who most looked forward to this day.Among them Rita stood out.She was a kind and quiet girl; and during the previous year she had carried out the teacher’s instructions perfectly.All the children knew Rita was the favourite to be given the best job of all—to look after the class dog.

But this year there was a big surprise.Each child received one of the normal jobs,like preparing the books or the radio for the lessons,telling the time,cleaning the blackboard,and looking after one of the pets.But Rita’s job was very different.She was given a little box containing some sand and some ants.And even though the teacher insisted that they were very special ants,Rita couldn’t help feeling disappointed.Anyway,she accepted the task.Most of her classmates felt sorry for her.They sympathised with her and remarked on how unfair it was that she had been given that job.Even Rita’s father felt sorry for her,and as an act of protest,he told Rita to pay no attention to this insignificant pet.However,Rita,who liked her teacher very much,preferred to show the teacher her ability by doing something special with such an insignificant task. “I will turn this ‘little task’ into something great,” Rita said to herself.
