A
In our library we encourage scholarly activities but prohibit behaviors that disturb others’ work in the library. Violations may lead to restricted access.
Cellphone Usage
Turn cell phones off or set to silent mode as you enter the library. Out of respect for others, if you must use a cell phone while in a library, move to one of the following general locations if your conversation will be more than a few seconds:
●public space away from quiet study areas
●study rooms
●lobbies or entrances to libraries (that are not part of the main library)
Any person who does not follow this policy may be asked to leave the library.
Children in the Library
The resources of the Libraries are primarily intended for use by Boston College students, staff and faculty. However, young children accompanied by an adult are welcome in the libraries.
Parents or adult guardians who bring young children to the library are responsible for their protection and safety and must never leave children unattended. Children cannot be monitored and supervised by the staff; therefore the safety of unattended children cannot be guaranteed.
Food & Drink
Food is limited to small items which are generally consumed individually while seated at tables or study rooms. Drinks in covered containers and water bottles are allowed.
Not permitted:
●Meals or messy, strong-smelling foods (e.g. pizza, salads, sandwiches and soup) .
●Group meals where food is shared by more than one person.
●Delivery of food to the library.
1. Where can a person take a call for a few minutes in the library
A. At a quiet study desk. B. In a study room.
C. In a lobby of the main library. D. Near the reading room.
2. Who should answer for the safety of young children in the library
A. Library staff members. B. The child’s school teacher.
C. Campus security officers. D. The accompanying adult.
3. Which of the following behaviors violates the library’s Food & Drink policy
A. Drinking from a covered coffee cup. B. Eating a chocolate bar at a study room.

Would you spend nearly a hundred dollars on a doll that looks like a monster (怪物) Well, that’s what some people are doing for this monster doll from China called Labubu. People’s fascination with doll crazes goes back generations. Just look at the Cabbage Patch Dolls in the ’80s. People get obsessed with purchasing popular dolls.
Pop Mart’s Labubu dolls are no exception. The doll, which looks like a scary child with a big head, sharp teeth and big eyes wearing fuzzy footy pajamas, is sure to gather mixed reactions. But people all over the internet are going crazy over it.
The doll was designed by Hong Kong artist, Kasing Lung, around 10 years ago. Lung created three picture books inspired by Nordic mythology (神话). The book contains descriptions of characters, both good and evil, in a fairy world. He called them “The Monsters.” Labubu, “a small monster with high, pointed ears and serrated teeth,” is the most prominent character. Though she is a monster, she is kind-hearted and constantly wants to help others, but things may not go according to her plan, and she accidentally ends up making things worse.
Today, Labubu blind boxes are sold worldwide by the Beijing-based toy-maker Pop Mart. People are very enthusiastic about the toy. It even led people to line up outside of malls overnight and start fights while instantly selling out.
Emily Brough, Head of Licensing for Pop Mart North America, told USA TODAY Labubu’s crazy following can be attributed to a few factors:1. Pop Mart’s blind box model and the possibility of getting a limited-edition fuel collectors’ desire for the dolls. 2. Going viral (迅速走红) — Unboxings and collector showcases on TikTok, Xiaohongshu (Red Note), and Instagram drove massive engagement. 3. Celebrities and Fandoms — Rihanna, Dua Lipa, and BLACKPINK’ s Lisa, have all been seen with Labubus, fueling their fans’ desires for the dolls.
4. Why are the Dolls in the ’80s mentioned in the first paragraph
A. To make a contrast. B. To generate a discussion.
C To prove Labubu’s popularity. D. To draw people’s attention.
5. How can we describe Labubu
A. Frightening but kind. B. Pretty and helpful.
C Strange but entertaining. D. Popular and priceless.
6. What can be inferred from the passage
A. Dolls are always expensive to buy.
B. Labubu is designed by Nordic mythologist.
C. People may go to some lengths to buy a Labubu.
D. Cabbage Patch Dolls were monsters in the past.
7. Which is not the reason for Labubu’s popularity according to the passage
A. Business model. B. Creative design.
C. Celebrity influence. D. The power of social media.
C
Understanding a simple-looking English sentence such as “I read this article yesterday” actually requires some complicated conceptual computation: a subject (“T”) performed an action (“read”) on an object (“article”) at a specific time (“yesterday”). But the human brain routinely does this work nearly at once based on the language’s grammatical rules, says linguist Andrea E. Martin. And Martin’s team has now found that the human brain can accommodate fundamental grammatical differences across languages by adjusting how it processes each sentence.
For a recent study in PLOS Biology, the researchers observed variations in Dutch-speaking participants’ brain waves while they listened to a Dutch-language audiobook. To visualize these changes, the scientists used a metric (指标) quantifying how many new “predictions” the brain makes of words that could come next in a sentence. This framework was then tested against three different parsing (语法分析的) strategies, or linguistic models that illustrate how the brain builds information over time.
Previous English-based studies with a similar setup concluded in favor of a model where listeners “wait and see” how each phrase in a sentence will end before interpreting it. But the Dutch speakers in Martin’s study leaned strongly toward a highly predictive model; participants tended to finish each phrase in their head preemptively before it was complete. (A third model, in which listeners wait to hear all of the phrases in a sentence before interpreting any part of it, is seldom used in either language.)
In Dutch language structure verbs come near the end of a sentence rather than immediately after the subject like they do in English, while in Korean, the subject is usually left out and in Arabic verbs often come first. So flexibility is vital in processing different languages simply because they have different properties.
The findings support the need for scientists to include more diversity when crafting linguistic models. “This is going to help us capture how the brain is understanding the structured meaning of language, and the social application of language,” Martin says. “There’s so much yet to be understood in the brain.”
8. Why does the author cite the example in paragraph 1
A. To introduce a grammar rule. B. To analyze an English sentence.
C. To bring in a new research finding. D. To stress the complexity of human brain.
9. What does the underlined word “preemptively” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. By accident. B. In advance. C. On time. D. By mistake.
10. Which sentence can match the Dutch language structure
A. Universe the about documentary saw. B. Saw I a documentary about the universe.
C. I saw a documentary about the universe. D. I a documentary about the universe saw.
11. What does Martin try to stress in the last paragraph
A. The challenges of brain researches. B. The application of the present findings.
C. The purposes of different linguistic models. D. The necessity to diversify subjects in studies.
D
A team of Chinese scientists recently invented a micro-motion sensor that allows people to control devices and type text by blinking (眨眼睛).
The sensor is fixed to special eyeglasses and applied through two real-time human-machine interfaces — a smart home control system and a wireless hands-free typing system. It makes direct contact with the wearer’s skin around the eyes and responds to changes in pressure when the wearer blinks intentionally to trigger (触发) a computer response.
“It is like a third hand,” said Professor Hu, who led the research. She said the sensor can help people control devices when both hands are occupied, or help people with disabilities to communicate and perform daily tasks.
In the new study, Hu and her colleagues designed the sensor based on what’s called a triboelectric nanogenerator — or TENG — to detect the motion of the skin around the corners of eyes, which has never been considered as a good trigger signal source. When the TENG sensor is attached to the glasses, the minute muscle movement of a closing eye momentarily pushes the sensor’s layers together, generating an electrical signal that can be reliably measured. It is super-sensitive, stable, easy and cheap. The team is now applying for a patent in China and overseas. In the near future, they expect to see it on the market.
The sensor can initiate tasks such as turning a light on or off. When the glasses are connected to a computer screen, the wearer can blink as a cursor (光标) passes over different keys, typing out words. “This TENG-based micro-motion sensor is distinct and unique in its fundamental mechanism, which provides a novel design concept for intelligent sensor techniques and shows great potential for application in human-machine interfaces,” said Hu. “For our next step, we would like to explore the great potential of TENG sensors in intelligent robots.”
12. Which aspect of the sensor is paragraph 2 mainly about
A. Its operation process. B. Its working principles. C. Its practical applications. D. Its theoretical foundation.
13. Who can benefit from the sensor according to Professor Hu
A. A blind teenager desiring to see the light. B. A boy wanting to chat with friends overseas.
C. A secretary incapable of typing words rapidly. D. A lady unable to open the door with full hands.
14. What does the author say about the TENG sensor
A. It is responsive and affordable. B. It keeps track of eye movements.
C. It is bound to be commercialized. D. It appears to be the best of its kind.
15. What’s the future research direction for Professor Hu’s team
A. Creating novel human machine interfaces. B. Enhancing wireless communication systems.
C Applying their sensors to smart machines. D. Equipping glasses with micro-motion sensors.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Karie double-checked the words on her spelling test. If she got 100 percent today, she’d win her class’s First-quarter Spelling Challenge and a brand new dictionary. Plus, Ms. Smith had promised to do a handstand(倒立) if anyone got a perfect score.
Two more words to go. Q-u-i-c-k-+-y. H-o-n-e-s-try. Wait! She’d spelled honesty, not honestly! She erased the t-y and wrote l-y before handing in her paper.
“I’ll correct these while you’re at the break,” Ms. Smith said.
After the break Karie moved restlessly in her seat, tapping her pencil.
Ms. Smith walked to the front of the room and cleared her throats. Then, as if she were an Olympic gymnast(体操运动员), Ms. Smith threw both her feet into the air. “Congratulations, Karie! You did it,” she announced while upside down. The whole class erupted! Ms. Smith presented Karie with her prize. Karie smiled broadly as she read the note on the dictionary to Kaire, for her perfect performance.
“Everything OK ” Mom asked as Karie burst through the front door after school. “Everything’s PERFECT!” Karie shouted, showing Mom her spelling test and prize. Mom hugged her “Put the test on the fridge so Dad can see it when he gets home.”
“And Casper, too.“ Karie lifted up her cat. ”Can you spell quickly. Casper And honestly, and..” Karie’s stomach tumbled(翻滚) to the floor. Honestly H-O-N-E-S-L-Y!
“Karie, what’s the matter ” asked Mom. “I don’t feel so good,”Karie said, putting Casper down and squeezing the test paper into her backpack.
“Probably too much excitement.” Mom rubbed her back. “How about some tea ” Karie swallowed. “How do you know Tea is exactly what I needed.”
Karie dragged herself to her bed after some tea. How could she tell the whole class she didn’t deserve the prize That Ms. Smith did the handstand for nothing
