However, this is one of the few Chicago museums not “fun for the whole family” as adults and older kids will be bored to tears. Address: 700 East Grand Ave. (Navy Pier), Chicago Phone: 312-527-1000 Public transportation: CTA bus lines #29 (State Street), #65 (Grand Avenue), and the #66 (Chicago Avenue) all serve Navy Pier.

She was 92 years 194 days old when she crossed the finish line at the 2022 Honolulu Marathon, setting the record for the oldest female to complete a marathon. Mathea, now 94, of Koloa, Hawaii, USA, stays in shape all year round by running seven days a week, no matter what the weather is. Come rain or shine, she covers 36 miles every week, even when she’s on holiday. The retired doctor didn’t take up running until she was 46 years old —after a friend suggested running two miles per day. “The Honolulu Marathon is my favorite marathon mainly because it doesn’t close the gate at a certain time, which allows even the slowest runner to finish the race,” she said. “It’s one of the best races. Fantastic registration (注册), set-up and management make it a joy to run the race.” Mathea, who doesn’t allow her age to slow her down, thinks she is the happiest person when she’s on the road. She enjoys running for miles and waving and saying hello to the people she passes. To stay in shape, Mathea keeps a steady training routine (惯例) . “I train all year round but increase the mileage 18 weeks before a marathon,” she said. Mathea said it was her career as a doctor that allowed her to understand how her body and mind respond to diet and exercise. “I see the direct relation between moving and health,” she said. “It is important to reduce stress rather than ignoring it without a plan on how to do so. Of course, exercise of any kind is a natural stress reducer.” Mathea thought getting through the finish line and winning a Guinness World Record title was the excitement of her life. “My family completely surprised me after the 2022 Honolulu Marathon, in which I achieved the world record, by wearing matching T-shirts stating my achievements,” she said. 4. What do we know about Mathea from the first two paragraphs? A. She used to be in poor health． B. She is the oldest to win a marathon． C. She runs daily regardless of the weather． D. She was encouraged by her patient to run． 5. Why is Mathea keen on the Honolulu Marathon? A. It gives winners the best awards． B. It provides runners with quality service．． C. It has no time limit for runners to finish． D. It allows runners to set a world record easily． 6. What led to Mathea’s understanding of the connection between moving and health? A. Her professional experience． B. Her training courses． C. Her views on stress in life． D. Her hobby from young． 7. What message does Mathea’s story deliver? A. Practice makes perfect． B. Interest is the best teacher． C. Age is no barrier to success． D. Ups and downs make one strong． C In the time before air-conditioning southern China’s sky wells played a key role in keeping people’s homes cool. Could they do it again today? A skywell, or “tian jing”, is atypical characteristic of traditional homes in southern and eastern China. Different from a northern Chinese courtyard, or “yuan zi”, a skywell is smaller and less open to the outdoor environment. Its size and design differ from place to place. Skywells were designed to cool buildings at a time well before air-conditioning existed. When wind blows above a skywell house, it can enter the indoor space through the opening. Because outdoor air is often cooler than indoor air, the incoming wind travels down the walls to the lower stories and create airflows by replacing warmer indoor air, which rises and leaves through the opening. Although skywell buildings have existed in China for hundreds of years, in recent times they have often been forgotten by people who prefer modern buildings. Over the past two decades, however, skywell buildings have been making a comeback. Yu Youhong, 55, has spent more than 30 years restoring (修复) skywell homes in Wuyuan county of Jiangxi province, apart of the old Huizhou. One of the skywell homes restored by Yu is in the village of Yan, in Wuyuan county. The deserted 300-year-old house was bought by Edward Gawne, a former marketing director from the UK, and his Chinese wife, Liao Minx in, in 2015. The couple turned the three-storey house into a 14-room hotel with the help of Yu. They kept the spaces surrounding the sky wells in their original state: open and with natural airflow. Gawne says that even without air conditioning the skywell areas are very comfortable in summer. Yu says he expects sky wells to be more and more popular among younger generations especially as sustainability (可持续性) becomes an important element for new buildings. 8. What do we know about the sky wells? A. They had the same size and design. B. They were commonly seen throughout China. C. They acted as air-conditioners in the summer. D. They were fully open to the outdoors like courtyard. 9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. When sky wells appeared. B. What sky wells look like. C. Why sky wells are no longer popular. D. How sky wells cool buildings. 10. What did the couple do with the centuries-old house? A. They enlarged its rooms. B. They moved the skywell. C. They pulled it down and rebuilt it. D. They kept part of its architectural characteristic. 11. What’s the main idea of this text? A. The comeback of sky wells. B. An introduction to an expert in sky wells. C. The preservation of traditional Chinese architecture. D. The influence of modernization on ancient buildings. D A recent study has discovered that gentle sound stimulation referred to as pink noise, could enhance deep sleep among older adults and strengthen their word recall abilities. Deep sleep is critical for memory consolidation. But beginning in middle age, it decreases considerably, contributing to memory loss in aging. The sound stimulation significantly enhanced deep sleep in participants and their scores on a memory test. This innovative approach offers a simple and safe means to potentially enhance memory among older individuals and mitigate the natural age-related memory decline. A team of researchers from the Northwestern University in the US gathered 13 adults aged 60 and above, monitoring their sleep in a lab for two nights. On both nights, the participants underwent a memory test, went to bed while wearing headphones and a special cap, and took the memory test again in the morning. But without the participants’ awareness, researchers only played pink noise into the headphones on one night. More specifically, they timed the sounds to match the participants’ slow-wave oscillations. During deep sleep, brain waves slow to approximately one oscillation per second, compared to about ten oscillations per second during wakefulness. The system they employed in the study allowed the team to deliver a low burst of pink noise at the “precise moment” when the participants’ slow waves rose — a pattern that is unique to each person. The study found that participants’ slow waves increased after the night of sound stimulation, suggesting a potential enhancement in their deep sleep quality. And in the morning after hearing pink noise, they performed three times better on memory tests than they did after sleeping without any sound stimulation. The study was a relatively small one and Northwestern has taken steps to confirm its findings and to study how longer-term use of pink noise affects sleep. The team aims to develop an affordable device that people can use at home, from the comfort of their beds. 12. What did the study reveal about the impact of pink noise? A. It disturbs overall sleep quality. B. It weakens word recall abilities. C. It increases the length of sleep. D. It boosts memory performance. 13. The underlined word “mitigate” in the second paragraph most probably means _________. A. decrease B. notice C. worsen D. describe 14. What can be learned about the new study? A. It adjusted participants’ slow-wave oscillations precisely. B. It employed a sound system to match slow-wave oscillations. C. It compared different sound effects on the elderly and the youth. D. It played various sorts of pink noises into participants’ headphones. 15. It can be inferred that the approach used in the study _________. A. pose a long-term risk for older adults. B. requires an innovative and affordable device C. has the potential to be put into practice. D. lacks researchers’ interest in confirming findings. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The way people work has changed.

In today’s world, training and learning do not stop when we finish school. ___17___ For many managers and professionals the biggest challenge, as well as change, in the workplace, was the increased use of computers and computerized equipment.

She’s the oldest woman in the world to have completed a marathon. She was 92 years 194 days old when she crossed the finish line at the 2022 Honolulu Marathon, setting the record for the oldest female to complete a marathon. Mathea, now 94, of Koloa, Hawaii, USA, stays in shape all year round by running seven days a week, no matter what the weather is. Come rain or shine, she covers 36 miles every week, even when she’s on holiday. The retired doctor didn’t take up running until she was 46 years old —after a friend suggested running two miles per day. “The Honolulu Marathon is my favorite marathon mainly because it doesn’t close the gate at a certain time, which allows even the slowest runner to finish the race,” she said. “It’s one of the best races. Fantastic registration (注册), set-up and management make it a joy to run the race.” Mathea, who doesn’t allow her age to slow her down, thinks she is the happiest person when she’s on the road. She enjoys running for miles and waving and saying hello to the people she passes. To stay in shape, Mathea keeps a steady training routine (惯例) . “I train all year round but increase the mileage 18 weeks before a marathon,” she said. Mathea said it was her career as a doctor that allowed her to understand how her body and mind respond to diet and exercise. “I see the direct relation between moving and health,” she said. “It is important to reduce stress rather than ignoring it without a plan on how to do so. Of course, exercise of any kind is a natural stress reducer.” Mathea thought getting through the finish line and winning a Guinness World Record title was the excitement of her life. “My family completely surprised me after the 2022 Honolulu Marathon, in which I achieved the world record, by wearing matching T-shirts stating my achievements,” she said. 4. What do we know about Mathea from the first two paragraphs? A. She used to be in poor health． B. She is the oldest to win a marathon． C. She runs daily regardless of the weather． D. She was encouraged by her patient to run． 5. Why is Mathea keen on the Honolulu Marathon? A. It gives winners the best awards． B. It provides runners with quality service．． C. It has no time limit for runners to finish． D. It allows runners to set a world record easily． 6. What led to Mathea’s understanding of the connection between moving and health? A. Her professional experience． B. Her training courses． C. Her views on stress in life． D. Her hobby from young． 7. What message does Mathea’s story deliver? A. Practice makes perfect． B. Interest is the best teacher． C. Age is no barrier to success． D. Ups and downs make one strong． 【答案】4. C 5. C 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇人物传记。文章主要讲述了Mathea Allansmith这位非典型祖母如何通过坚持跑步，在晚年成为完成马拉松的最年长女性的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Mathea, now 94, of Koloa, Hawaii, USA, stays in shape all year round by running seven days a week, no matter what the weather is.

Could they do it again today? A skywell, or “tian jing”, is atypical characteristic of traditional homes in southern and eastern China. Different from a northern Chinese courtyard, or “yuan zi”, a skywell is smaller and less open to the outdoor environment. Its size and design differ from place to place. Skywells were designed to cool buildings at a time well before air-conditioning existed. When wind blows above a skywell house, it can enter the indoor space through the opening. Because outdoor air is often cooler than indoor air, the incoming wind travels down the walls to the lower stories and create airflows by replacing warmer indoor air, which rises and leaves through the opening. Although skywell buildings have existed in China for hundreds of years, in recent times they have often been forgotten by people who prefer modern buildings. Over the past two decades, however, skywell buildings have been making a comeback. Yu Youhong, 55, has spent more than 30 years restoring (修复) skywell homes in Wuyuan county of Jiangxi province, apart of the old Huizhou. One of the skywell homes restored by Yu is in the village of Yan, in Wuyuan county. The deserted 300-year-old house was bought by Edward Gawne, a former marketing director from the UK, and his Chinese wife, Liao Minx in, in 2015. The couple turned the three-storey house into a 14-room hotel with the help of Yu. They kept the spaces surrounding the sky wells in their original state: open and with natural airflow. Gawne says that even without air conditioning the skywell areas are very comfortable in summer. Yu says he expects sky wells to be more and more popular among younger generations especially as sustainability (可持续性) becomes an important element for new buildings. 8. What do we know about the sky wells? A. They had the same size and design. B. They were commonly seen throughout China. C. They acted as air-conditioners in the summer. D. They were fully open to the outdoors like courtyard. 9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. When sky wells appeared. B. What sky wells look like. C. Why sky wells are no longer popular. D. How sky wells cool buildings. 10. What did the couple do with the centuries-old house? A. They enlarged its rooms. B. They moved the skywell. C. They pulled it down and rebuilt it. D. They kept part of its architectural characteristic. 11. What’s the main idea of this text? A. The comeback of sky wells. B. An introduction to an expert in sky wells. C. The preservation of traditional Chinese architecture. D. The influence of modernization on ancient buildings. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了中国南方的天井在建筑物中起到的作用。虽然过去一段时间天井经常被那些喜欢现代建筑的人遗忘，但是在过去的二十年里，天井建筑正在卷土重来。 8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Skywells were designed to cool buildings at a time well before air-conditioning existed.(天井的设计是为了在空调存在之前为建筑物降温)”可知，天井在夏天充当空调，给建筑物降温。故选C。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Skywells were designed to cool buildings at a time well before air-conditioning existed. When wind blows above a skywell house, it can enter the indoor space through the opening. Because outdoor air is often cooler than indoor air, the incoming wind travels down the walls to the lower stories and create airflows by replacing warmer indoor air, which rises and leaves through the opening.(天井的设计是为了在空调存在之前为建筑物降温。当风吹过天井式房屋上方时，它可以通过开口进入室内空间。因为室外空气通常比室内空气冷，所以进来的风沿着墙壁传播到较低的楼层，并通过取代室内较暖的空气而产生气流，室内较暖空气通过开口上升和离开)”可知，第三段主要讲述了天井是如何在夏天让室内保持凉爽的。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段的“The deserted 300-year-old house was bought by Edward Gawne, a former marketing director from the UK, and his Chinese wife, Liao Minx in, in 2015. The couple turned the three-storey house into a 14-room hotel with the help of Yu. They kept the spaces surrounding the sky wells in their original state: open and with natural airflow. (2015年，英国前营销总监Edward Gawne和他的中国妻子廖敏英买下了这座有300年历史的废弃房屋。在余的帮助下，这对夫妇把这栋三层楼的房子变成了一家有14间客房的酒店。他们将天井周围的空间保持在原始状态：开放且具有自然气流)”可知，这对夫妇将天井周围的空间保持在原始状态。所以他们是保留了这栋三层楼的部分原始建筑特征。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“In the time before air-conditioning, southern China’s sky wells played a key role in keeping people’s homes cool. Could they do it again today?(在没有空调的时代，中国南方的天井在保持人们家的凉爽方面发挥了关键作用。他们今天能再做一次吗？)”以及全文可知，本篇文章主要讲述了中国南方的天井在建筑物中起到的作用。虽然过去一段时间天井经常被那些喜欢现代建筑的人遗忘，但是在过去的二十年里，天井建筑正在卷土重来。故选A。 D A recent study has discovered that gentle sound stimulation, referred to as pink noise, could enhance deep sleep among older adults and strengthen their word recall abilities. Deep sleep is critical for memory consolidation. But beginning in middle age, it decreases considerably, contributing to memory loss in aging. The sound stimulation significantly enhanced deep sleep in participants and their scores on a memory test. This innovative approach offers a simple and safe means to potentially enhance memory among older individuals and mitigate the natural age-related memory decline. A team of researchers from the Northwestern University in the US gathered 13 adults aged 60 and above, monitoring their sleep in a lab for two nights. On both nights, the participants underwent a memory test, went to bed while wearing headphones and a special cap, and took the memory test again in the morning. But without the participants’ awareness, researchers only played pink noise into the headphones on one night. More specifically, they timed the sounds to match the participants’ slow-wave oscillations. During deep sleep, brain waves slow to approximately one oscillation per second, compared to about ten oscillations per second during wakefulness. The system they employed in the study allowed the team to deliver a low burst of pink noise at the “precise moment” when the participants’ slow waves rose — a pattern that is unique to each person. The study found that participants’ slow waves increased after the night of sound stimulation, suggesting a potential enhancement in their deep sleep quality. And in the morning after hearing pink noise, they performed three times better on memory tests than they did after sleeping without any sound stimulation. The study was a relatively small one and Northwestern has taken steps to confirm its findings and to study how longer-term use of pink noise affects sleep. The team aims to develop an affordable device that people can use at home, from the comfort of their beds. 12. What did the study reveal about the impact of pink noise? A. It disturbs overall sleep quality. B. It weakens word recall abilities. C. It increases the length of sleep. D. It boosts memory performance. 13. The underlined word “mitigate” in the second paragraph most probably means _________. A. decrease B. notice C. worsen D. describe 14. What can be learned about the new study? A. It adjusted participants’ slow-wave oscillations precisely. B. It employed a sound system to match slow-wave oscillations. C. It compared different sound effects on the elderly and the youth. D. It played various sorts of pink noises into participants’ headphones. 15. It can be inferred that the approach used in the study _________. A. pose a long-term risk for older adults. B. requires an innovative and affordable device C. has the potential to be put into practice. D. lacks researchers’ interest in confirming findings. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了一项新的研究发现，轻柔的声音刺激，有助于改善老年人的深度睡眠，并提高他们回忆单词的能力。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A recent study has discovered that gentle sound stimulation, referred to as pink noise, could enhance deep sleep among older adults and strengthen their word recall abilities.”（最近的一项研究发现，柔和的声音刺激，被称为粉红噪音，可以改善老年人的深度睡眠，增强他们的单词记忆能力。）可知，该研究表明粉红噪音可以改善老年人的深度睡眠，增强他们的单词记忆能力，即提高他们的记忆力。故选D项。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段第三四句“The sound stimulation significantly enhanced deep sleep in participants and their scores on a memory test. This innovative approach offers a simple and safe means to potentially enhance memory among older individuals”（声音刺激显著提高了参与者的深度睡眠和他们在记忆测试中的得分。这种创新的方法为潜在提高老年人的记忆力提供了一种简单而安全的方法）并结合第一段内容可知，该方法可以提高老年人的记忆力，故推知它可以减轻与年龄相关的自然记忆的衰退，故推知mitigate意为“减轻，减少”。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第四五句“More specifically, they timed the sounds to match the participants’ slow-wave oscillations. During deep sleep, brain waves slow to approximately one oscillation per second, compared to about ten oscillations per second during wakefulness.”（更具体地说，他们对声音进行了定时，以匹配参与者的慢波振荡。在深度睡眠时，脑电波缓慢到大约每秒一次振荡，而在清醒时大约每秒10次振荡）可知，新研究采用了一种声音系统来匹配慢波振荡。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Northwestern has taken steps to confirm its findings and to study how longer-term use of pink noise affects sleep. The team aims to develop an affordable device that people can use at home, from the comfort of their beds.”（西北大学已采取措施证实其发现，并研究长期使用粉红噪音对睡眠的影响。该团队的目标是开发一种价格合理的设备，人们可以在舒适的床上在家使用。）可推知，本研究中使用的方法具有应用于实践的潜力。故选C项。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The way people work has changed.
