A
Wall Art For All

Have you ever tried making your own wall art? You don’t need to be a master painter or illustrator to do so! I strongly believe that we all have the capacity to make art. Take this wall art piece, for instance.
What to do
Step 1: Cut out five or six large rectangles from your coloured card. Vary the sizes and the colors, so no two pieces are the same. These will be your base pieces.
Step 2: Put your poster board flat on the floor. Lay out your base pieces of card directly onto the poster board. Move each around until you’re happy. Try to overlap（重叠）at least two or three.
Step 3: Cut out some medium-sized pieces of card (a little smaller than your base pieces). As with the base pieces, these should be varying sizes and colors. Place these medium pieces over the base pieces, so they overlap slightly.
Step 4: One by one, measure the sizes of the overlapping sections with a ruler. Cut out a contrasting piece of card to the same dimensions, then glue them in place (covering the overlapping section, to create the effect of multiple tones).
Step 5: Stick down all of the base and medium-size pieces. Glue them directly onto the poster board with a glue stick. Take your time doing this—make sure that they’re all lined neatly with the edges of the poster board.
Step 6: Finally, fill in any gaps with smaller squares and rectangles of card. As with step 4, cover any overlapping sections with additional contrasting card.
21. Which of the following do you need to create the wall art?
A. Good painting skills. B. A glue stick and pins.
C. Colored cards of the same size. D. A poster board and a ruler.
22. What is the poster board used to do?
A. Draw pictures on. B. Act as a baseboard.
C. Cut out pieces of card. D. Fill in gaps between cards.
23. What should we pay attention to about the cards?
A. All cards are of the same size.
B. All cards have the same shape.
C. All cards overlap each other completely.
D. All cards parallel the edges of the poster board.
B
It’s hard to make generalizations about how adults and children look at art differently. But one thing I’ve noticed is that children tend to be slightly better readers of pictures, more patient, and with less theoretical expectation. They rarely ask what a picture means—they are too busy thinking about how it makes them feel, what it reminds them of. And that’s the perfect way to look at pictures.
They are also much better at noticing details. Perhaps my most telling experience here is with my book The Red Tree. It’s more or less about depression, but hidden in every painting is a tiny red leaf, in a gutter, floating in the background, resting on a window frame. Most children notice it straight away. And they see it as a key connector between all pictures, a positive one. They intuitively（凭直觉地）make hopeful remarks about it. Many adults missed this vital connective thread and find the book a little puzzling and pretty miserable.
The other thing about that book is that many adults thought it was not suitable for younger readers and that it presented a bent view of reality. I myself wasn’t sure if they were right or wrong about that. I don’t really write and illustrate specifically for young readers anyway. But then I discovered that children, when asked, actually found it very entertaining and fun. They deeply identified with it, often saying it felt “real.” They also commented that the book feels extremely hopeful to them, largely because they connect all positive feelings to the little red leaves.
As someone who is a pretty pessimistic adult much of the time, I’ve learned a lot from seeing how younger readers respond to my work. They’ve taught me new ways to look, think, and feel.
24. What might be the writer’s career?
A. A news reporter. B. A comic book writer.
C. A book reviewer. D. An early childhood educator.
25. According to the writer, what matters to interpreting an artwork?
A. Explore themes of the artwork. B. Refer to comments on the artwork.
C. Treat the artwork with fixed values. D. Relate the artwork with personal experience.
26. What do we know about the book The Red Tree?
A. It’s intended for young readers. B. It’s an objective description of reality.
C. It’s connected by a thread - a red leaf. D. It’s all about depression and hopelessness.
27. What has the writer learned from children
A. Hope for life. B. Patience with work.
C. Passion for art. D. Confidence in oneself.
C
Conner Sessions’s decision to combine his love of science and animals nearly destroyed him. After graduating from the University of Washington (UW), Seattle, in 2016, he took a job as an animal technician, someone to clean and feed mice, pigs, dogs, and other creatures used in biomedical research at the university.
Sessions had grown up around farm animals and considered himself an animal lover. That became his Achilles’ heel. During his work, he raised the puppies from birth, sometimes tube feeding those that had trouble nursing. And then he was required to euthanize（使安乐死）massive numbers of them—more than 13,000 a year. The work eventually helped the research, but he couldn’t shake feelings of anxiety, sadness and regret.
Sessions began to struggle with a heavy depression and guilt. Yet he didn’t feel like he could talk to anyone about it. Instead, Sessions found himself sneaking into the employee locker room and crying.
Sessions’s condition also strikes a shocking number of lab animal workers. Yet few of them want to talk about the problem. Unlike doctors, they aren’t just surrounded by pain and death—they ‘re often the ones causing it.
That’s made those in this field loath to reach out for help. At best, friends and family don’t understand what they do, or why. At worst, animal rights groups viewed them as murderers. Institutions avoid discussing the problem, often hidden from public view in university basements, for fear of attracting negative attention to their animal research programs. So those who tend to lab animals have largely suffered in silence.
Some at UW are trying to change this. A small group of volunteers has launched a program called Dare 2 Care. Dare 2 Care set up a “crisis” phone line and email for those who are struggling, hoping to make the university’s invisible population feel seen instead of hiding themselves in the shadows. Yet it’s unclear whether their approaches will help.
28. What does Sessions’s Achilles’ heel refer to?
A. His affection for animals. B. His work at the university.
C. His guilt about animals’ fate. D. Great progress in the research.
29. The caregivers like Sessions keep silent about their experience because ______.
A. they attempted to hide the truth. B. they were afraid of losing their jobs.
C. they tried to avoid negative attention. D. they blamed what happened on themselves.
30. What does the underlined word “loath” mean in the fifth paragraph?
A. hesitant B. willing C. desperate D. ambitious
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Ceasing the killing. B. Suffering in silence.
C. Fighting against anxiety. D. Speaking up for animals.
D
Microplastics, or tiny plastic particles - have been found in human blood for the first time.
In a paper published in Environment International, researchers in the Netherlands analyzed 22 blood samples from healthy donors and found that 17 or almost 80% contain microplastics.
The team tested for five types of plastics. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), commonly used in disposable water bottles, was the most common plastic type and found in about 50 percent of the donors. The second most common, polystyrene (PS) which is used for food packaging, was found in about 36 percent. Alarmingly, the researchers found up to three different types of plastic in a single blood sample.
Previously, microplastic pollution has been recorded to the summit of Mount Everest, oceans, seafood, water and air. It is the first study to find such tiny particles in human blood. “The particles are transported throughout the body and stay in internal organs,” study author Dick Vethaak, an ecotoxicologist in the Netherlands says to the Guardian.
The health effects of taking in microplastics are currently unclear. Today, the only data available are laboratory studies that show its unfavorable effects on mice or rats when given large quantities of microplastics. As Professor Mark Taylor of Macquarie University in Sydney told The Guardian last year, “nobody really knows.” However, as he stressed., “Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.” If we’re to understand the effects, the first step underway at the moment is understanding levels of exposure.
It is estimated that since the 1950s, more than 70 million tons of microplastics have been dumped into the oceans due to industrial manufacturing processes. A WWF report also suggested we’re all unintentionally taking in 125 grams of plastic every 6 months. Despite the small number of donors in the study, pollution expert Fay Couceiro of the University of Portsmouth, who was not involved in the study, tells the AFP that the study was “solid and will stand up to examination.” Now, many countries are taking action to reduce microplastics in the environment.
32. What did scientists find in the study of 22 donors’ blood samples?
A. Half the blood samples contained microplastics.
B. PET was the most common plastic in the samples.
C. Altogether three types of plastics are detected in samples.
D. Donors were healthy despite microplastics in their blood.
33. What concerned scientists in the Netherlands?
A. Microplastics can damage human internal organs.
B. Microplastics have unfavorable effects on humans.
C. Multiple types of plastic were found in one sample.
D. Microplastics have polluted the peak of Mount Everest.
34. What does Mark Taylor’s words concerning microplastics mean?
A. Their effect is too weak to note.
B. Evidence shows no health impacts.
C. Lots of more study about them is needed.
D. Levels of exposure to microplastics matter.
35. What will the writer focus on in the following paragraph?
A. How microplastics get into the food chain.
B. How widespread microplastics have become.
C. Distribution of microplastics in the ecosystem.
D. Effective measures taken to restrict microplastics.

As a person with ADHD（注意力缺陷多动障碍）, I found the slides were difficult for me to process while I tried to focus on what the presenter had to say. 36 But it also helped me think about how I can craft my own presentations to interest all the audience—including those with ADHD.
People are easily distracted and often find it challenging to keep their attention focused on a stream of thought. 37 Visual information gives the audience an opportunity to be focused on what I am explaining.
38 So the start and structure of a presentation are key. I try to craft introductions to highlight why the study is important and what gap in knowledge I’m trying to fill. If I have a surprising finding. I leave it for last. In this manner, the audience can follow me to a noteworthy conclusion.
A slide full of results will get my mind racing as it tries to process everything at the same time. To avoid that problem, I often start with relatively blank results slides, gradually adding more figures along with my explanations. 39
One of my favorite comedians, Chris Rock, once said that at the beginning of his career be would repeated the premise（前提）of a joke multiple times just in case the audience forgot it. This developed into his signature delivery style. I’ve used that approach in my own presentations—restating my main points. 40
Humans love to hear interesting, easy-to-follow tales—so give your audience a story to remember.
A. My mind began to wander.
B. The experience was frustrating.
C. Guide your audience through the findings one step at a time.
D. The audience will be engaged if you’re telling an absorbing story.
E. Vary the tone and pace of my voice, using pauses to build tension.
F. Therefore, I use minimal text and insert graphs and photos to illustrate my points.
G. This ensures the audience will still leave with the key takeaway message even if their mind wandered.

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。
I was creating a picture book for my dad’s birthday about our family’s fruit store. I worked hard making pictures of big apples, peaches, plums, and oranges. Every time I messed up, I started all over again, so the floor under the kitchen table was covered with half-finished drawings.
“Dad’s going to love this,” Mom said as she looked over my shoulder.
I zipped through the cleaning and moved those waste papers from the floor to the recycling bin as fast as possible. Just as I was about to get back to the birthday book. my friend Mareya showed up and invited me to go play in the park. It’s freezing outside, not good for a walk. But Mareya insisted that it’s the perfect weather for not getting overheated. That’s a cool thing about Mareya. She had this way of looking on the bright side of pretty much anything.
So, after checking with my mom, we put Mareya’s guitar inside and headed to the park. But as soon as we arrived there, the sky filled with giant gray clouds and rain started pouring down. We laughed as we headed back home, dripping wet. Mareya was right about one thing. We definitely didn’t get overheated!
We were just arriving at the driveway and that’s when my heart pretty much stopped. Right there, in front of the recycling bin, were pieces of soaking-wet papers. And not just any papers…
I ran to rescue my birthday book drawings. But it was too late. As I picked up my once-perfect pictures, they were a wet, useless mess!
My drawings were gone forever! The cats had jumped up and knocked papers off the table. Then after being played with by the naughty cats, they ended up in the rain water. What could I do without the present for dad? I was in despair.
“We can do something...” said Mareya.
“What?” I sniffled.
“Remember those paper pumpkins we made in third-grade art class?” she said. “And we covered balloons with wet paper and flour to make paper pumpkins.”
Having no better alternative, we decided to give it a try though we were not sure whether this mess could work.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

My mom was very understanding, preparing balloons and flour for us. Since my birthday book was supposed to be about the grocery store, and the balloons were the perfect shape for big apples, peaches, plums and oranges. We decided to make one big present -a basket of paper fruit. Mixing water with flour, covering balloons with sticky wet paper, we tried to turn what was a mess into colorful fruit. It turned out to be really fun and messy, with floury paste everywhere, including all over our kitty cats’ paws!
Finally we got the present ready - a big basket of paper fruit. After what seemed to be a century, Dad’ birthday came. With butterflies in the stomach, I presented dad with my gift, “Happy birthday! Dad.” I could feel Dad was in amazement. My dad loved his big basket of paper fruit so much that he kept it right next to the checkout counter in the store, for everyone to see. So, Mareya’s “every cloud has a silver lining” way of looking at things really did help. There’s a pretty happy ending to what was almost a sad story.

W: Good morning. Welcome to Science World. Today we’re talking about direction. Some people never get lost, while others need a GPS just to find their way to the store! And, of course, a GPS is not always accurate.
M: Definitely. Everyone has a story about following a GPS route and ending up in the middle of a field! But, why are some people so much better at finding their way than others? Are they born with that skill?
W: Not necessarily. Scientists say people who have a good sense of direction probably pay more attention to what’s around them. They notice more details. A lot of people don’t pay attention at all. If you’re thinking about something else while you’re walking, of course you’re more likely to get lost.
M: Hmm. I guess we do use things we see to help us find places. I remember there was a tree at the corner of a street where my friend lived. One day, the tree was gone, and I couldn’t find the street. I was completely lost! I was using the tree as a visual clue, even though I didn’t know it.
W: Yes, I’ve experienced something similar to that. Well, one day …

We’re going to be pulling up to the Marina Hotel in just a few minutes. Please sit back and enjoy the view of the ocean on the right hand side of the bus as we go over the bridge. I kindly ask that you remain in your seats and do not eat or drink on the bus. Manuel will be meeting us at the entrance to give you a warm welcome and help you with your bags. Please make sure your bag has been taken off the bus. I wish you all a wonderful vacation in Ibiza and I hope to see you around the great place.
