阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
As a clueless freshman, I waltzed int my first creative writing curse by accident, thinking it was a literature class n hw t read stries, nt hw t write them.
When the teacher intrduced the curse, I realized my mistake. The credits I earned frm the curse wuldn’t cunt tward my majr. By the end f the sessin, hwever, I decided that I had t be a part f the curse. Perhaps, as a lifelng reader, I was eager t understand hw stries wrked their magic.
But taking the class wuld be impssible: I wasn’t even n the waitlist. That’s when the teacher asked fr a vlunteer t submit the first wrkshp stry.
Silence blanketed the rm. N ne risked eye cntact. Whever vlunteered wuld have t write a whle stry in a week. Perhaps they, like me, had never written ne befre.
Seizing my chance, I raised my hand and asked, “If I g first, will yu give me a spt in the class?” He said he wuld.
S, instead f keeping my head dwn and aviding eye cntact. I did the ppsite.
Years later, I’d cmpleted a degree in creative writing and was wrking n a nòvel when a literary agent（经纪人） asked t read the first 50 pages f my draft. But I wasn’t cmfrtable shwing her anything; the nvel was far frm dne.
Thrughut graduate schl, I’d been advised many times nt t cntact agents until I have a cmplete draft. In the meanwhile, I knew the beginning f my stry was attractive and that the agent might nt remember me after a year.
S, nce again, instead f keeping my head dwn and aviding eye cntact, I did the ppsite. I sent her the first three chapters. A mnth later, she signed me n the strength f thse chapters alne. She has since seen me thrugh the publicatin f three nvels.
Determinatin, fcus, perseverance—the qualities that I cnsider crucial in getting me int Stanfrd n dubt helped me becme the nvelist I am tday. And yet if I’d trained my gaze nly n the path ahead, I wuld have missed s many happy accidents, s many beautiful pprtunities t lk up, raise my hand, and say yes.

In recent years, wden buildings have reached new heights, with saring wden skyscrapers cmpleted r underway in cuntries like Nrway, Switzerland and Australia. Sweden, likewise, has cme up with a plan as big as a city — building the wrld’s biggest wden city. As the wrld’s largest urban cnstructin prject in wd, Stckhlm Wd City will be built in Sweden’s capital, Stckhlm in 2025.
By using wd, the prject is expected t reduce carbn ftprint by up t 40%, cmpared with building in cncrete and steel, says Annica Anäs, CEO f Atrium Ljungberg, a Swedish urban develpment cmpany. Sme peple may have cncerns ver fire risks psed by wden buildings, but experts say engineered timber（木材） can resist fire as well. As with ther mdern cnstructin prjects using wd, Wd City will still use sme cncrete and steel in places like the fundatins, but the verall amunts will be greatly reduced. As wden buildings are much lighter, their fundatins can be smaller.
The cnstructin will nt be as nisy as it is built frm cncrete and bricks, adds Ms Anäs. This makes wden buildings particularly suitable fr urban redevelpment in general, since putting them up is less likely t anny the neighburs. It shuld als be prfitable. Ms Anäs is lking fr a return n investment f 20% r better. “Sweden is prgressive when it cmes t wd cnstructin,” she says.
The wrld’s largest wden city is suppsed t make cmmute（通勤） easier and shrter, decreasing emissins frm transprtatin. The website fr the prject describes Stckhlm Wd City as a “five-minute city,” which means that anywhere ne wuld need t g —wrk, grcery stres, r schl, fr example — wuld nly be a five-minute walk away. As Anäs cncluded, “We want t create an envirnment where ur custmers, thse wh will live and wrk here, can participate in the develpment and design f the city district f the future.”
45．What is the prject abut?
A．Making Stckhlm a lw-carbn city.B．Creating mre wden skyscrapers in Sweden.
C．Building the highest wden building in Eurpe.D．Cnstructing the largest wden city in the wrld.
46．What advantage d wden buildings have ver cncrete and steel buildings?
A．They can strngly resist fires.B．They are mre cmfrtable t live in.
C．They are mre envirnmentally friendly.D．They are built n a mre stable fundatin.
47．Why are wden buildings suitable fr urban redevelpment?
A．They are prfitable fr investrs.B．They cause less nise when built.
C．They have a shrt cnstructin perid.D．They are less cstly t maintain and repair.
48．Hw can we describe the future life in the wden city?
A．Secure.B．Stressful.C．Cnvenient.D．Fashinable.

Millins watch the Oscars every year, but I’m always interested in the Razzies（金酸梅奖）, which recgnize cinematic underachievement. Fr all the attentin given t what we like, what we dislike can be just as imprtant, interesting and empwering
French scilgist Pierre Burdieu saw dislike as snbbery. He saw all judgments f taste, favrable r nt, as perfrmances f class. The rich culd justify their place, he argued, by claiming t have mre refined tastes. Knwing which literature r art t praise culd signal t. thers their rightful place at the tp f sciety. Oversimplified his thery might be, it is nt entirely wrng.
Furthermre, dislikes are ften used as a way nt t stand apart but t fit in. It means learning the unspken rules f what’s OK t like r dislike, and t prclaim thse likes r dislikes ludly fr thers t hear. When sme f us swim against the scial tide, we might be savvy（精明的） enugh t label ur likes as “guilty pleasures”, which bth acknwledges the rules and aplgizes fr vilating them.
In my research, thugh, I fund that dislike isn’t just a frm f snbbery.
We interviewed ver 200 peple, a diverse grup in race, age, and scial class. All the interviewees tended t actively dislike media cntent far mre when they felt they culdn’t escape it. Many peple can’t chse the radi statin that’s playing at wrk, r what’s n TV at the bar. Mrever, sme f us are subjected t mre annyance than thers. Remte cntrls, fr instance, have lng been seen as a special right f dads, with wmen and kids given less pwer t change the channel. Everyne turns t media hping fr specific needs t be met, but thse wh have thse needs realized less ften are thse wh might dislike mre ften.
Therefre, speaking abut dislikes is an act f resistance—a refusal t allw public space t be cnquered by the media cntent that desn’t cnnect.
Dislike can certainly transfrm int anger r hate, but it may als take a mre playful frm. Smetimes we culd see peple jyfully watch the bject f their dislike and ffer a cmmentary f criticism, instead f tuning ut and turning ff. Why? Reveling in dislike can help regain cntrl in a wrld that verwhelms everyne with cntent. Keeping the despised shws at hand rather than aviding them can help the dislikers speak up in the curt f public pinin. Or sme might enjy their dislikes as a way t avid ruining certain relatinships. Many f us can prbably relate t the experience f having a friend wh insists we watch smething against ur will.
What if, rather than resenting the shw r the persn, we simply embrace it in all f its embarrassing glry? By all means, pay attentin t the advice t “ignre the haters”. But a lt can be learned by listening t the dislikers.
49．Accrding t Paragraph 3, peple label their likes as “guilty pleasures” when they ______.
A．try t fit int a certain grupB．take pride in their taste
C．set up the unspken rulesD．fllw the mainstream
50．What can we learn frm the passage?
A．Dislikes can he fund mstly amng the rich.
B．Learning abut literature and art is an act f snbbery.
C．Expressing dislike helps maintain ne’s scial relatinships
D．Expsure t unwanted media cntent intensifies peple’s dislike.
51．What des the underlined phrase “Reveling in” in the text prbably mean?
A．Taking delight inB．Shwing cncern fr.
C．Drawing lessns frm.D．Establishing cnnectin t
52．What message des the authr try t cnvey in this passage?
A．We are encuraged t launch debates ver ht issues in public.
B．Staying away frm the haters is a sensible means t avid truble.
C．Embracing ur dislikes can be a way t deal with pwer imbalance
D．The media shuld aim t meet the needs f different grups f audience.
