I’ve been wondering how kids themselves, especially young ones, define (定义) play. It turns out that there have been quite a few research studies in which young children are asked in various ways to distinguish between play and not play. In a review of 12 such studies, Natasha Goodhall and Cathy Atkinson (2019) concluded that even very young children have a rather clear idea of the difference between play and non-play. Most important for the present discussion, a key characteristic of play for children is that it is chosen and directed by the children themselves.
As one example of such a study, Justine Howard and her colleagues (2006) showed children pictures of other kids involved in various activities and asked them to judge each as “play” or “not play.” It turned out that the most reliable indicator for the children was the presence or absence of an adult. If an adult (generally seen to be a teacher) was present, the activity was most often judged as “not play,” even if the children looked happy and involved. Children were also more likely to judge an activity as play if there was more than one child involved than if a single child was doing something alone.
Howard and her colleagues (2006) also reviewed previous research on children’s understanding of play and concluded that, all in all, children consider an activity to be play if it (a) is controlled by the children, (b) is enjoyable, (c) has no preset goal, and (d) involves pretense. Yay! This list matches reasonably well with the list I generated based on the work of other play researchers and my own observations. I’m apparently not too far off the mark.
Unfortunately, many education specialists who have heard that play is good for children’s learning don’t understand what play is. They develop “play-based learning” programs that go against the first characteristic of play because they are chosen and set up by the teacher and are more-or-less forced upon the children rather than freely chosen by them. Once the first characteristic is destroyed, the others are also generally destroyed.
I think it is hard for teachers to provide much real play for children, because that means giving up control. Moreover, stepping back and letting the children do their own thing may look like laziness or negligence (疏忽) to adult observers.
24. Which of the following is more likely to be regarded as play by children?
A. Activities filled with joys and sorrows.
B. Activities directed by children themselves.
C. Activities with the company of their parents.
D. Activities set up and monitored by a teacher.
25. What does the underlined sentence “I’m apparently not too far off the mark” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. I am opposed to the mark. B. I am in the wrong direction.
C. My finding is close to the truth. D. My mark is beyond imagination.
26. What is the problem with “play-based learning” programs?
A. Children can not choose them freely.
B. The benefits of the programs are ignored.
C. Not all the children are involved in the activities.
D. What children do goes against the rules of the games.
27. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. How children define play.
B. Why play matters for children.
C. How specialists design play-based learning.
D. Why play-based learning is important to children.

On Tuesday, organizers of the Pritzker Prize, often known as the “Nobel of architecture,” revealed Kéré as its 2022 winner.
The first African architect to claim the award in its 43-year history, Kéré made the achievement largely involving schools, health centers and community facilities—projects that might once have been considered too modest for a prize that has historically honored the designers of iconic buildings. Speaking to CNN shortly after hearing the news, he credited his success to his community in Gando.
“This is not just a prize for myself,” he said on the phone from Berlin. “Without having the courage to go back home Gando, and to get my people to join me on the journey to build the school that began my career, this would never have been possible.”
Casting mud like concrete (混凝土) and preferring local materials to imported ones, Kéré proposes a vision of architecture that both strengthens communities and responds to the climate crisis. As such, the Pritzker Prize announcement is not only a nod of acceptance for him, but for “vernacular” architecture—a term used to describe designs that directly respond to local climates, materials and building traditions.
Though Kéré has since designed bigger projects, his approach remains grounded in his belief established in Gando. Knowing the village had no access to electricity or air conditioning, he proposed strategically placed windows that allow indirect sunlight to enter while generating airflow that serves as natural ventilation (通风).
But despite working closely with local craftspeople (工匠), Kéré said he faced disagreement with his choice of materials. The use of traditional clay bricks, which offer natural cooling, was not entirely welcomed by villagers, who thought the structure would not resist the rainy season as well as glass and steel.
“There is still a feeling that everything that’s local is primitive (原始的),” he said. “Let’s say 90% of people in Gando use clay, but they see it as a ‘poor person’s material.’ So, when they have more money to spend, they try to look for other materials.”
“The more local materials you use, the better you can promote the local economy and build local knowledge, which also makes people proud,” Kéré added.
28. What can we learn about the Pritzker Prize?
A. It was founded in 1943. B. Its first winner is an African.
C. Its aim is to encourage modest works. D. It usually favors iconic buildings.
29. What is special about Kéré’s design?
A. Breaking with traditions.
B. Applying imported material.
C. Making full use of local materials.
D. Generating electricity from the sun.
30. What challenge did Kéré meet?
A. The villagers preferred modern materials.
B. The villagers were short of steel and glass.
C. The local materials couldn’t resist the heat.
D. The local materials were not environmentally friendly.
31. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. Local materials promoted local economy.
B. An African architect won the 2022 Pritzker Prize.
C. Kéré’s design became the fashion trend of architecture.
D. Kéré and his community worked together to cope with climate crisis.
D
When we think about lives filled with meaning, we often focus on people whose big contributions benefited humanity. Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Nelson Mandela surely felt they had a worthwhile life. But how about us ordinary people, struggling for existence?
Many scholars agree that a meaningful existence often boils down to three factors: the feeling that one’s life is coherent (连贯的) and “makes sense,” the possession of clear and satisfying long-term goals and the belief that one’s life matters in a system of things.
But we believe there is another element to consider. Think about the first butterfly you stop to admire after a long winter or imagine the scenery at the top of a hill after a fresh hike. Sometimes existence delivers us small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating such experiences, these moments may enhance how they view their life. We call this element experiential appreciation. The phenomenon reflects the feeling of a deep connection to events as they happen and the ability to extract value from that link. It represents the detection of and admiration for life’s natural beauty.
We conducted a series of experiments in which we gave people specific tasks to see whether experiential appreciation was related to a person’s sense of meaning. In one case, we found that participants who watched an awe-inspiring video, such as the BBC documentary Planet Earth (地球脉动), reported having a greater sense of experiential appreciation and meaning in life, compared with participants who watched more neutral (不带感情色彩的) videos, such as an instructional woodworking video.
The results confirmed our original theory: appreciating small things can make life feel more meaningful. But applying that insight can be difficult. Our modern, fast-paced lifestyles fill the day with targets and goals. The focus on future outcomes makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. Yet life happens in the present moment. We should slow down, let life surprise us and embrace the significance in the everyday life.
32. What are the key factors of meaningful existence according to the scholars?
A. Wealth, goals and achievements.
B. Capability, positivity and meaning.
C. Contribution, great aim and coherence.
D. Coherence, purpose and existential mattering.
33. What does the underlined word “It” refer to in paragraph 3?
A. That link. B. Experiential appreciation.
C. The value. D. A deep connection to events.
34. How does the author support his viewpoints according to paragraph 4?
A. By listing figures. B. By telling stories.
C. By analyzing causes. D. By doing experiments.
35. What does the author suggest people do?
A. Maximize future outcomes. B. Focus on targets and goals.
C. Value what is happening now. D. Enjoy the fast-paced lifestyles.

How we garden
Some of us are challenged when it comes to gardening. We sometimes worry too much about what other people think about our gardens. The most important thing to remember when you’re creating your own garden is that it really needs to be about you. 36
That said, the best gardens work well with their surrounding environment. For instance, you might want to create a tropical (热带) feel but if you’ve got next-door’s oak tree (橡树) as the major background then it could look slightly odd. 37 If your garden is north-facing and you use black or grey-colored material, everything could become dark and depressing.
When it comes to planting, there are a lot of great influences out there. You might like the work of designers such as Piet Oudolf. But it’s good to remember that these influences are best used as a guide. 38 If you want to use ideas from other garden designers, then look for one that you’re comfortable with but don’t try to copy it outright—just be inspired by them.
39 I always think that if you’ve got fewer materials then the plants can sing better. For me, the plants are always at the heart of the garden. If you want them to stand out, keep your materials to as small a number as possible.
It’s the same when we select plants. We often forget that we don’t need a garden full of stars; we also need plants that provide the support act. 40 They often bring a more subtle element to the design.
A. A straight copy is never going to work, is it?
B. Grasses are a great example of this sort of secondary role.
C. All of these considerations will really help you set the tone.
D. You shouldn’t concern yourself with what anyone else thinks.
E. The direction your garden faces will also affect the overall look.
F. In the use of different materials in your garden design, less is definitely more.
G. If you want to keep bugs away from your plants, you can spray pesticide regularly.

阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
In the novel Journey To the West, most of the characters are not human, but they show recognizable human 56 (characteristic). This human element is one reason for the novel’s
57 (popular). People see 58 (they) in the characters. A good example of this is the Monkey King himself. He enjoys playing tricks, and at one point he masked himself as a demon (妖怪) 59 (rescue) his friends from a prison, without telling them who he was. He talked about eating Pigsy, nearly 60 (frighten) Pigsy to death. In a real sense, he had the same life journey that so many people have had through the ages. When young in the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit, he could escape all of the problems in life, but he had to grow up and face the
61 (reality) world, with all its worries. In doing so, he changed 62 someone who loved to play tricks and cause trouble, to someone who is self-disciplined and faithful.
Another reason for the novel’s success is that it is more than just 63 adventure story. It is not only a group’s journey to the West, but is a spiritual journey 64 the characters were forced to examine the nature of right and wrong. For example, in their journey, they faced both demons and gods. Yet, through enlightenment (教化) some of the demons became gods, and some of the gods became demons because they 65 (choose) to do wrong.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I did not know why I had chosen to be here. It felt as though my mind were at home, sitting and watching television, feeling relaxed and having fun, and yet my body was standing here in absolute fear. I looked in the mirror again. My face had been washed clean before applying the heavy make-up. My skin looked deathly white and powdered so that there was no shininess. My eyes looked dark and I was wearing lipstick. I should have been thrilled that I was allowed to wear make-up, but somehow, this didn’t feel like a treat.
Now I had to wait. How easy it should be to simply wait but this felt like a never-ending suffering. I stared at my white shoes as I stretched my feet, trying to distract myself from the way I felt. This dressing room was not small, but there were lots of girls in here. Mum and Dad were sitting in the audience but I was missing them so much. I wished they had been here with me. They were only on the other side of the stage, but that felt like a world away. The speaker asked for the black swans(天鹅)to get ready and as a sudden rush of girls danced into line and headed off towards the stage, I knew that I would be called next. My hands felt wet and sticky. I did not want to go on stage. I did not want the audience staring at me as I performed.
I tried to sit down but it was difficult when you were wearing a tutu(芭蕾舞裙). I wanted to rest my forehead on the mirror, but I knew that I would ruin my make-up and that wouldn’t do. The speaker was asking again, “Calling for white swans, will all white swans make their way to the stage?” I shook my arms, and joined the queue of other white swans. I felt really faint now and I wanted to be sick. I looked around in desperation, waiting to catch the eye of someone, anyone, who could get me out and save me.
