Four Seattle-Area Art Shows to Catch in Fall 2024
A Two-Way Mirror
This long-expected show presents works by contemporary (当代的) artists (think: Hank Willis Thomas, Kara Walker, Seattle’s own Barbara Earl Thomas) who create some of the most exciting con temporary glasswork today and use it to reflect on social, cultural, and gender identity.
Sept. 7-24; Museum of Glass, 1801 Dock St., Tacoma
www.museumofglass.org
Prints and Works on Paper
Whether on panel or paper the artworks of the well-known Jacob Lawrence (1917 — 2000) always shine sharply. This show of prints and works on paper by the celebrated and longtime Seattle-based artist features various pieces from his famous builders series, which celebrates workers.
Sept. 25-Dec. 31; Greg Kucera Gallery, 212 Third Ave., Seattle
www.gregkucera.com
Soft Power
Textile (织物) art is getting popular again. The latest case in point is this showing of “soft” artworks that are by no means soft—they push back and stand tall. Featuring works by celebrated creators like Marie Watt and Marita Dingus, who often use wool and showcase a 70-foot-long sculpture (雕像), this show will certainly be worth attending.
Oct.14-Nov. 14; Tacoma Art Museum, 1701 Pacific Ave., Tacoma
www.tacomaartmuseum.org
Femme Noire
Inspired by Léopold Sedar Senghor's poem of the same name, this show celebrates the beauty and power of Black women. Featuring works by respected international, national and local women artists from Africa, the show takes visitors on a self-guided walking tour to paintings, photography and sculptures throughout the Central District.
Oct.21-Nov. 21; various locations in the Central District, Seattle

When her students ask what she was like at their age, Tiffany Marconi opens up about her high school experience. Her family were often on the move, and she admits that moving so often made her feel lost. “I was just kind of all over the place. My teachers in high school really helped me discover who I was and feel comfortable with myself,” Marconi says.
Among her coworkers, Marconi is admired for her rapport (融洽) with students. She’s a go-getter who believes “you get out what you put in.” So she is the obvious choice to teach a new course for juniors and seniors, school leaders say.
Marconi is instrumental in building a program in Wheat on Warrenville Unit District 200. Through her “Intro to Teaching” classes, Marconi is drawing high school students to the profession (职业) at a time when a national teacher shortage makes headlines.
One of the goals of the program is to give teens real-world experiences and opportunities to explore careers while they’re in high school. The curriculum is set through the College of DuPage, but Marconi creates a student-centered classroom. At the end of the term, students design their own classroom on an individual level and in small groups as a team-based challenge.
Marconi doesn’t avoid talking about the realities — all the positives and some of the struggles of being a teacher. “Yes, I would love all of them to come back and teach,” Marconi says. “But I just hope honestly that it helps them figure out if they want to be a teacher, and if not, that’s OK. The one thing I always tell my students: You need to find a job, something that you love and that you are excited to do when waking up every day.”
4. Why did Marconi feel lost in her high school?
A. Her teachers were strict. B. She scored low marks.
C. Her family moved a lot. D. She went to school alone.
5. What does the program that Marconi works for aim to do?
A. Inspire students to go for teaching jobs. B. Build more student-center classrooms.
C. Encourage students to attend top colleges. D. Help students get along well with each other.
6. What do the students need to do at the end of the term?
A Look for a well-paid job as expected. B. Prepare themselves for the interviews.
C. Discuss their curriculum with teachers. D. Design a classroom in their own way.
7. Which of the following best describes Marconi as a teacher?
A. Quiet. B. Caring. C. Impatient. D. Humorous.
C
The story of our home galaxy (星系) may tend to be changed. That’s because a bar-shaped collection of stars at the center of the Milky Way appears to be much younger than expected.
The bar is a prominent feature of our galaxy. It covers thousands of light years and connects the galaxy’s arms of stars, making them look like spinning (旋转) water. In computer models of the Milky Way’s development, the bar tends to form early in the galaxy’s around 13-billion-year lifetime. But the ages and locations of metal-rich stars suggest the bar finished forming just a few billion years ago, researchers report.
“These metal-rich stars are basically like records of ancient stars that are telling the story of our home galaxy,” says Samir Nepal, working at the Leibruz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam in Germany.
Stars with large numbers of metals are built from the remains of stars that have since exploded. Those metals enrich the materials at the center of galaxies like the Milky Way, which is why a new generation of metal-rich stars can form only deep inside galaxies.
Using data from the European Space Agency, Nepal and his coworkers recreated the development of the Milky Way bar through its influence on the metal-rich stars. They inferred the bar’s history, just as you might figure out where the batters stand in a baseball game by looking at the flight of the balls they hit, even if you can’t see home plate.
In the study, the researchers found out a burst (迸发) of star formation in the central part of the galaxy that became quiet about 3 billion years ago. The down turn seems to mark the end of the Milky Way bar’s development, the researchers report. After that burst, the inflow of new material into the bar probably dropped off significantly. That may account for why the bar developed so late.
8. What does the underlined word “prominent” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Simple. B. Long-lost. C. Man-made. D. Noticeable.
9. What can we know about metal-rich stars from Nepal’s words?
A. They remind us to make up old stories. B. They show the history of the Milky Way.
C. They record the development of the earth. D. They can help keep our home galaxy safe.
10. Why does the author mention a baseball game?
A. To compare the effects of the metal-rich stars.
B. To introduce a new sports event among students.
C. To explain how scientists track the age of the bar.
D To give an example of the importance of teamwork.
11. Which is the most suitable for the text?
A. A Bar of Stars Looks Surprisingly Young B. Now Advances in Space Exploration
C. Various Metal Stars Are Found in Space D. The Development of the Milky Way
D
A new training plan could remind artificial intelligence (AI) programs that they aren’t know-it-alls.
AI programs that run robots, self-driving cars and other autonomous machines often train in simulated (模拟) environments before making real-world running. But situations that an AI doesn’t meet with in virtual reality can become blind spots in its real-life decision making. For example, a delivery bot trained in a virtual city with no emergency vehicles may not know that it should stop before entering a crosswalk if it hears sirens (警报).
To create machines that move carefully rather than take a risk, computer scientist Ramya Ramakrishnan of MIT and her team developed a post-simulation training program in which a human character helps the AI identify gaps in its education. “This allows the AI to safely act in the real world,” says Ramakrishnan. Engineers could also use information on AI blind spots to design better simulations in the future.
During its testing period, the AI takes note of environmental factors influencing the human’s actions that it does not recognize from its simulation. When the human does something the AI doesn’t expect — like hesitating to enter a crosswalk despite having the right-of-way — the AI checks its surroundings (环境) for previously unknown factors, such as sirens. If the AI recognizes any of these features, it thinks the human is following some safety rule it didn’t learn in the virtual world and that it should follow the human’s action in these types of situations.
Ramakrishnan’s team have tested this setup by first training AI programs in simplistic simulations and then letting them learn their blind spots from human characters in more realistic but still virtual world. The researchers now need to test the system in the real world.
12. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about AI programs?
A. Their applications. B. Their problems.
C. Their advantages. D. Their changes.
13. Why does the human character join in the test?
A. To ensure the safety of the team. B. To study why AI learns quickly.
C. To help AI recognize its weakness. D. To see how AI affects his action.
14. What will Ramakrishnan’s team do in the next stage?
A. Carry out the test in real conditions. B. Design better simulation at home.
C. Copy the style of the human walk. D. Follow safety rules on the road.
15. What can we infer about the post-simulation training program?
A. It cuts the cost of the training. B. It will badly influence the city.
C. It has attracted many volunteers. D. It may benefit self-driving cars.

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。
My father has been ill for over three years, and his illness has taken its toll (伤害) on my family’s emotional well-being. His troubles began when he had his first heart attack and was hospitalized for nearly a month. My emotions were running wild at that time, but I managed to deal with all the stress and pressure.
After my dad returned home from the hospital, his health didn’t really improve; instead, he seemed to get sicker. He could no longer do the things he was used to doing. Doctors ran additional tests on him, which made him extremely weak and tired. It was around this time that I was feeling a bit rebellious (叛逆的). I moved out of the house thinking that would reduce the stress on my mom and dad. The effect was quite the opposite. I realized they needed me more than any other time in their lives, so I returned home after a short period away. It was hard, but I knew what had to be done. I was just having such a difficult time seeing my father go through so much pain that it broke my heart.
As time went on, he continued to develop more complications (并发症) and even fell, hitting his head. He was okay, but my mother and I worried even more, which made my father become more troubled than he already was. He wasn’t angry at us for being so worried; instead, he was annoyed that he was creating so much pressure in our lives and he was so sorry for that.
Just recently he had another heart attack. He left the hospital shortly after that. It felt like the doctors stopped trying to save him, saying there wasn’t anything more they could do. He was in and out of the hospital a few more times for tests.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右:

Go for English
I’d like to share an effective method that has significantly improved my English. That is active learning, including using English in practical situations, reading English stories, and watching English movies.
I recommend this method because it allows us to practice English in our daily lives. It also helps us improve our listening and speaking skills, which are often ignored in traditional language classes.
Active learning is a powerful way to sharpen our English skills. I hope you’ll give it a try. It’ll definitely benefit your English learning journey.

【答案】范文
I could no longer hold it in anymore. My emotions reached a boiling point as I watched my father’s health deteriorate rapidly. Each trip to the hospital felt like a step closer to losing him forever. I knew I had to do something, to find a way to help him, even if it meant facing my own fears and doubts head-on. So, I summoned all my courage and sat down with my parents to have a heart-to-heart conversation.
