Mexican Prints at the Vanguard
The rich tradition of printmaking in Mexico— from the eighteenth century to the mid-twentieth century— is explored in this exhibition of works drawn mainly from The Met collection.
Among the early works presented are those by Mexico's best-known printmaker, José Guadalupe Posada, whose illustrations of skeletons engaged in different activities helped establish a global identity for Mexican art.
Following the Mexican Revolution(1910~1920), printmaking proved to be the ideal medium for artists wanting to address social and political concerns and voice resistance to the rise of wars around the world. Artists also turned to printmaking to reproduce Mexican murals（壁画） from the 1920s and to create exhibition posters, prints for the popular press, and albums celebrating Mexican dress and customs.
Featuring over 130 works, including woodcuts, lithographs, and screen prints, by artists such as Posada, Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, and LeopoldoMéndez, the exhibition explores how prints were central to the artistic identity and practice in Mexico. It highlights their effectiveness in addressing social and political issues, a role of the graphic arts that continues today.
The majority of The Met's expansive collection came through the French-born artist Jean Charlot, whose association with the Museum began in the late 1920s. Charlot donated many of his own prints and works by other artists to The Met, and in the mid-1940s acted on behalf of the Museum to acquire prints in Mexico. The collection demonstrates The Met's early interest in Mexican art and culture at a time when there was growing international interest in the subject.

Many of my students are from Latin American countries, where oral（口述的） storytelling is deeply rooted in their culture. This made it harder to encourage a love for reading in my classroom. This year, with the help of a workmate, I've come up with some solutions to help my students build connections with books.
One strategy is making reading a shared activity. Instead of assigning individual reading tasks, I made reading time a teamwork. During our reading time, I arrange the desks in a circle. I' ll take the lead by reading aloud. Since I primarily teach newcomers with limited English, we often read books that are simple yet engaging, like those written by Mo Willems.
After reading a story to the students, I give students the opportunity to take the lead. What surprised me most was how much they love this role. They' re not only willing to read but take it a step further by adopting expressive voices, using dramatic gestures（姿势）, and even reinterpreting the characters in ways that reflect their own cultural experiences. This shared experience has made reading more enjoyable, transforming it into a social, collaborative activity.
I've also introduced a storytelling circle into our classroom. During storytelling circles, students are encouraged to share personal stories from their life. These stories can be funny, serious, or anything in between, and the format is very relaxing. The storytelling circle helps students take ownership of the stories we read and share. They begin to understand that stories belong to them and can reflect their own lives. It's amazing to see the students connect their own stories to the characters and situations in the books we read— and, in turn, build a deeper connection to reading itself.
Since introducing these changes into my classroom, I' ve noticed that students who once resisted picking up a book now view it as an opportunity to connect— with their friends, with their families, and with their own experiences. It's also a great reminder that when students feel seen, heard, and valued, they are more likely to engage, not just with books, but with learning as a whole.
24. What made it hard for the author to make his students love reading
A. The author's lack of engaging books.
B. Students’ inability to read independently.
C. The deeply rooted oral storytelling culture.
D. Students' unfamiliarity with group reading.
25. How does the author make reading a shared activity
A. By asking students to write stories together.
B. By arranging desks in rows for better focus.
C. By assigning books for students to read at home.
D. By inviting students to lead reading activities in turn.
26. What is the storytelling circle like
A. Inspiring. B. Rigid. C. Formal. D. Competitive.
27. What does the author think helps students connect with reading
A. Being monitored. B. Feeling appreciated.
C. Reading challenging books. D. Completing daily assignments.

While reliably snow-blanketed holidays might seem a thing of the past in Maryland and other parts of the East Coast— including Boston, which set a record this year for the longest stretch with no major snowfall—a new study reveals a much more urgent winter climate shift in a subpolar region of North America.
Researchers at the Earth System Science Interdisciplinary Center(ESSIC) identified the Bering Sea in the northern Pacific Ocean as a climate change hotspot, showing how environmental changes there threaten the coastal communities and ecosystems.
The research team found that in nine of the last 10 winters, sea ice extent was lower than average, including record lows in 2018 and 2019. During this period of sea ice loss, wind speeds and wave heights increased. “In the Bering Sea, sea ice acts both to mitigate waves as they hit the edge of the ice cover, and also to limit the transfer of energy from winds into the ocean from which waves are generated. In turn, winds and waves can break up sea ice into smaller pieces at the ice edge,” said the researchers.
“Less sea ice means less protection for coastal communities,” they said. “If sea ice continues to decline here, then we would expect that the extreme waves we have already observed with our satellite data would have a bigger impact on coastal communities,” said co-author Associate Professor Sinead Farrell.
Sea ice is expected to continue declining as the Earth warms; by the 2040s, scientists expect sea ice extent in the Bering Sea to regularly dip below the record low set in 2018. The Bering Sea ice season is also expected to decrease by up to a full day per year through 2044. This transition will bring unpredictable effects to the region and its people.
The team hopes to expand upon this research by studying regional climate models and integrating field data to confirm satellite observations. The researchers also hope to combine their studies’ conclusions with historical records of sea ice by Alaska’ s Indigenous communities.
28. Why does the author mention“Boston” in the first paragraph
A. To clarify a concept. B. To explain a natural law.
C. To draw a conclusion. D. To present an alarming fact.
29. What does the underlined word“mitigate” mean in paragraph 3
A. Remove. B. Increase. C. Weaken. D. Boost.
30. What influence might the declining sea ice in the Bering Sea bring
A. The region will experience a rapid recovery of sea ice.
B. The duration of the sea ice season will shorten each year.
C. The frequency and intensity of extreme waves may increase.
D. Coastal communities will be more resistant to extreme weather.
31. What is a suitable title for the text
A. Waves Are Changing in the Bering Sea
B. Shifting Seas: The Bering Ice Crisis
C. The Hidden Effects of Climate Change
D. Coastal Communities Benefit from Less Ice
D
Cutting back on animal protein in our diets can save on resources and greenhouse gas emissions. But convincing meat-loving consumers to switch up their menu is a challenge. Looking at this problem from a mechanical engineering angle, Stanford engineers are pioneering a new approach to food texture （口感） testing that could make plant-based meats taste and feel like real meat.
Led by Ellen Kuhl, professor of mechanical engineering and senior author of the study, the Stanford team ran a three-dimensional food test. They tested eight types of food, such as hot dogs, turkey, sausages and so on, each including both animal-based and plant-based options. They mounted bits of meat into a machine that pulled, pushed, and cut on the samples. “These three loading modes represent what you do when you chew,” said Kuhl.
Then, they used machine learning to process the data from these tests: They designed a new type of neural network that takes the raw data from the tests and produces equations（方程） that explain the qualities of the meats. To see if these equations can explain the perception of texture, the team carried out a test survey. The testers— who first completed surveys on their openness to new foods and their attachment to meat— ate samples of the eight products and rated them for 12 categories, such as soft, hard, and meat-like.
In the mechanical testing, the plant-based hot dog and sausage behaved very similarly to their animal counterparts（对应物） in the tests, and showed similar hardness. Meanwhile, the plant-based turkey was twice as hard as animal turkey. Strikingly, the human testers also ranked the hardness of the hot dogs and sausages very similarly to the mechanical tests. “What's really cool is that the ranking of the people was almost identical to the ranking of the machine,” said Kuhl.
The findings suggest that new, data-driven methods hold promise for speeding up the process of developing tasty plant-based products. “Hopefully, we could use generative artificial intelligence to scientifically generate recipes for plant-based meat products with precisely desired properties,” the authors wrote in the paper.
32. How was the Stanford team's first food test carried out
A. By analyzing human chewing behavior.
B. By copying the motions of human chewing.
C. By comparing the softness of various foods.
D. By processing data collected from human testers.
33. Why did the researchers use machine learning in their study
A. To identify food texture categories.
B. To design plant-based meat recipes.
C. To generate equations for food properties.
D. To replace human evaluations with machines.
34. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about
A. The outcome of the test. B. The final step of the test.
C. The evaluation of the test. D. The practical use of the test.
35. What is the paper authors' attitude to the finding of the test
A. Uncertain. B. Indifferent. C. Careful. D. Optimistic.

Every year, about 20 million children sign up for sports in America. However, studies show that about 70 percent end up quitting before 15 years old. One of the main factors is simple: 36
The excitement of wearing cool uniforms and doing the same things as a favorite athlete can encourage a child to take up a sport. 37 So you need to understand what drives kids involved and then it' ll be easier for you to encourage them.
For example, there have been many moments when a coach's motivating words led the team to win. Your speeches may not always lead to such grand victories. 38 Then, how to give an inspiring speech
You've probably seen it on TV: In the middle of a game, the captain is giving a speech so uplifting that the positive energy is infectious. All these scenes have one thing in common: 39 Seeing someone else get pumped up can inspire the rest of the team to play with passion.
Sometimes, your speech helps kids decide whether to stay with the sport. Think of how it must feel to hear your coach say that he or she believes in you and wants you to do well. When children enjoy the sport and the environment surrounding it, they are more likely to continue.
More important than what you say is how you say it. 40 A child who sees that you believe in him will be more likely to believe in himself. Make sure that you understand what motivates each child personally to play.
A. You should also be consistent in your approach.
B. They simply lose interest in continuing the sport.
C. The message is of excitement and determination.
D. You must truly believe every word you' re saying.
E. But with practice, they might bring inspiration to your players.
F. However, keeping a team motivated may be one of the toughest tasks.
G. However, staying motivated beyond the initial phase can be challenging.

Liam Carter was not your average 15-year-old. While most of his fellows at Maplewood Heights were crazy about the latest rock bands and popular social media trends, Liam spent his free time watching documentaries about human anatomy（解剖学） and studying first aid techniques. He loved learning about the human body, how it worked, and, more importantly, how to help it recover.
His fascination, however, set him apart. Many of the other teens in the neighborhood thought he was strange and didn't invite him to their hangouts. Liam often overheard them laughing about his interests and calling him“Doctor Carter”. It really hurt Liam. He couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with him. Why couldn't he just enjoy the same things as everyone else
One summer evening, Liam was in his room, rewatching a documentary on emergency medical responses, when he heard shouting from his neighbor's house. Curious, he ran outside and saw Mrs. Thompson, the elderly woman who lived next door, crying for help. Her 10-year-old grandson, Ethan, had collapsed in the yard while playing soccer.
Liam's heart pounded as he ran over. The ambulance hadn't arrived yet and Ethan was lying on the ground, unconscious（无意识的） and not breathing. Mrs. Thompson was panicked, shaking him and yelling his name, but Ethan didn't respond.
“Step back, I know what to do!” Liam said, his voice surprisingly steady despite the chaos.
Mrs. Thompson hesitated but moved aside, tears streaming down her face. Liam knelt beside Ethan, quickly assessing the situation. From what he could tell, Ethan was likely experiencing a heart emergency— something Liam had seen demonstrated in one of his documentaries.
Without wasting a moment, Liam began performing CPR（心肺复苏）. He placed his hands firmly on Ethan's chest and started chest compressions（按压）, counting aloud to keep the rhythm steady. His training came flooding back to him:30 compressions followed by two rescue breaths.
