However, she never truly regarded it as a possible career path. Astonishingly, her parents, contrary to her expectations, wholeheartedly encouraged her to apply to art schools. Eventually, she was accepted into the Rhode Island School of Design to study industrial design. The academic journey was far from easy, filled with demanding tasks such as metalworking, woodworking, and model making. There was even a phase when she spent an entire month just drawing cubes, which made her question her choice. But she soldiered on and soon began working on more captivating projects. Currently, Mosquera serves as a design strategist for a prominent architecture and interior design company in Washington, D. C. In addition to her professional commitments, she harbors a long-standing and profound interest in public art. This year, she played a crucial role in creating and designing "The Walkway" for the D. C. government. This unique structure, an 11-meter-long tunnel-like creation, narrows sharply as one walks through. Bright lights change colors along the path. On the walls are images of people. Voices and city sounds are played through speakers installed in the walkway. At first, the recorded conversations and street noise and pictures have a positive feel. But the images and audio increase in intensity along the path. The experience becomes dark and violent in the middle part of the walkway. "The purpose of showing these two different human emotions and human reactions is to allow people to reflect upon a variety of different expressions, so that brings up the conversation as to what is the right way to talk to each other in a public space. Should we talk to each other at all? Sc people are really questioning that. And that's what public art is meant to do," said Mosquera. For Mosquera, the physical experience of this structure has a far greater impact than merely viewing it on paper. In her free time, she delights in developing public art, firmly believing that the best way to learn is through hands-on work and taking on as many projects as possible. Industrial design, in her view, makes her a jack of all trades. 24. Which one is the task Zarela Mosquera had to do during her industrial design course? A. Writing essays. B. Doing carpentry work C. Performing on stage. D. Giving presentations. 25. What do we know about "The Walkway"? A. There are sounds coming from passers-by. B. The images on the walls are famous figures C. It is intended to make people think about public communication D, The whole structure creates an atmosphere of darkness and violence 英语试题第5页(共12页) 26. What does the underlined sentence "Industrial design, in her view, makes her a jack of al trades."in the last paragraph imply? A. Industrial design allows her to have a wide range of skills. B. Industrial design develops her interest in public art C. Industrial design makes her a master of trading with others D. Industrial design gives her an opportunity to take on hands-on work 27. What can be used to describe Zarela Mosquera? A. Responsible and cautious. B. Determined and creative C. Passionate and considerate D. Ambitious and proud C Recently, campaigners have encouraged us to buy local food. This reduces "food miles", that is, the distance food travels to get from the producer to the retailer. They reason that the higher the food miles, the more carbon emissions. Buying local food, therefore, has a lower carbon footprint and is more environmentally friendly. However, the real story is not as simple as that. If our aim is to reduce carbon emissions we must look at the whole farming process, not just transportation. Other processes, including fertilization, storage, heating and irrigation, contribute much more. In fact, imported food often has a lower carbon footprint than locally grown food. Take apples for example. In autumn, when apples are harvested, the best option for a British resident is to buy British apples. However, the apples we buy in winter or spring have beer kept refrigerated for months, and this uses up a lot of energy. In spring,therefore, it is more energy-efficient to import them from New Zealand, where they are in season. Heating also uses a lot of energy, which is why growing tomatoes in heated greenhouses in the UK is less environmentally friendly than importing them from Spain, where the crop grows well in the local climate. We must also take into account the type of transport. Transporting food by air creates about 5o times more emissions than shipping it. However, only a small proportion of goods are flown to the consumer country, and these are usually high value, perishable items which we cannot produce locally. Even then, these foods may not have a higher carbon footprint than locally grown food. For example, beans flown in from Kenya are grown in sunny fields using manual labour and natural fertilizers, unlike in Britain, where we use oil-based fertilizers anc diesel machinery. Therefore, the total carbon footprint is still lower It's also worth remembering that a product's journey does not end at the supermarket. The distance consumers travel to buy their food, and the kind of transport they use will also add to its carbon footprint. So driving a long way to shop for food will negate any environmental benefits of buying locally grown produce 英语试题第6页(共12页) Recently, some supermarkets have been trying to raise awareness of food miles too. But ultimately, the measures are too simple. Lots of different factors contribute to a food's carbor footprint besides the distance it has travelled 28. Why is importing apples from New 乙ealand more energy-efficient for British residents in spring? A. It reduces food miles B. British apples are in short supply. C. New 乙ealand apples are cheaper. D. British apples have been stored under energy-consuming conditions 29. Which of the following statements is correct according to the passage A. All imported food has a higher carbon footprint than locally grown food B. Beans flown in from Kenya have higher carbon footprints than grown in Britain. C. Transporting food by air always results in a higher carbon footprint than growing local food. D. Only considering food miles is an oversimplified way to assess a food's environmenta impact. 30. The underlined word "negate" in paragraph 5 probably means B. ignore A. enhance C. cancel out D. misunderstand 31. What is the author's attitude towards buying local food? A. Strongly supportive. B. Completely opposed C. Cautiously skeptical. D. Somewhat indifferent D Spanish scientist Pilar Bosch has found a way to use bacteria to repair 18th-century paintings. Bosch, a microbiologist, tells Reuters she got the idea for the method while considering possibilities for a paper toward her doctoral degree. During this process, she discovered someone else's paper that suggested bacteria can be used to restore artworks. At around the same time, Bosch learned that her mother was struggling to find a good method for restoring 18th-century paintings. The paintings, by Spanish artist Antonio Palomino, sat in Santos Juanes-one of the oldest churches in the city of Valencia Bosch said her mother, Pilar Roig, noted how difficult the restoration process at the church was. One reason was the glue used to remove the paintings from the walls in the 1960s The substance was nearly impossible to remove completely. "My mother had a very difficult problem to solve and I found a paper about bacteria used to clean murals in Italy," Bosch said. A fresco is a kind of painting that often appears across a large wall. 英语试题 第7页(共12页) Bosch added she decided to write her doctoral paper on the same subject. That was more than ten years ago. Today, she gets to work with her mother on the church restoration. They are using the bacteria method to remove glue from artworks. The mother-daughter team feeds small amounts of the glue-made from animal collagen(胶原)- to the bacteria. After a time. the bacteria begins to naturally produce enzymes(s) to break down the glue. Then they mix the bacteria with a natural algae-based substance, called a gel, and place it onto the paintings After about three hours, the gel mixture is removed, leaving the paintings glue-free Bosch's mother, now 75, noted that in the past, restorers of artworks had to use traditional cleaning methods that "took hours and damaged the painting”. She noted that several other relatives in the family also work in art restoration. Bosch agreed, saying the work"certainly runs in the family". Bosch has also used her bacteria removal process in other restoration projects in Italy and Spain. And, she is now training other scientists to use a different kind of bacteria to clear walls of painted graffiti. 32. Where did Bosch get the idea for the bacteria-based restoration method? A. From a research paper she read B. From her mother's suggestion C. From a conversation with other scientists D. From her own paper toward her doctoral degree. 33. What does paragraph 6 mainly talk about? A. The process of restoring paintings B. The complexity of the bacteria-based restoration method C. The complaint about the difficulty of the restoration work D. The history of the family's engagement in art restoration. 34. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Bosch's method has been put into the markets at home and abroad. B. The bacteria method is less damaging than traditional cleaning methods C. Bosch's relatives have always been using innovative methods in art restoration D. The bacteria used in the restoration process will cause harm to the paintings 35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The Future of Art Restoration B. The Challenges of Art Restoration C. Bacteria: Revolutionizing Art Restoration D. Bacteria: Disrupting Art Restoration 英语试题第8页(共12页) 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 If you listen to the news, you know our national obesity levels are rising. 36 Get more sleep!

Curie's interest in science began at a young age, but 44 the restrictions placed on women in Poland at the time, she was unable to 45 higher education in her home country. Determined to follow her 46 , she moved to Paris in 189l to study at the prestigious(有声 望的) Sorbonne University. There, she earned degrees 47 physics and mathematics and met her future husband and research partner, Pierre Curie. Together, the Curies conducted 48 research on radioactivity, a term that Marie Curie herself 49 . In 1898, they discovered two new radioactive elements, polonium-named after Marie's native Poland-and radium. Following Pierre's untimely death in 19o6, Marie continued her research, eventually 50 pure radium metal in 191o. For this achievement, she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1911, making her the first person to win two Nobel Prizes. Her discoveries had significant practical applications, 51 in the field of medicine In addition to her scientific contributions, Marie Curie was a trailblazer(先驱) for women in science. At a time when women were often 52 from academic and scientific institutions, Curie broke barriers and became the first female professor at the Sorbonne. Her perseverance, 53 , and passion for discovery continue to inspire generations of scientists. especially women in STEM fields.
