Koolhaas and Urhahn mct as university students and began working together professionally when Koolhaas was making a documentary film about hip-hop in Brazil's favelas-the informal, urban neighborhoods in which many of Brazil's very low-income families live While visiting these favelas, famous for their crime and drug problems, the artists saw something different-potential. What if they could paint the old houses and dirty buildings and turn them into art? Most favelas in Brazil were built by the pcople who live in them as they moved to the cities in search of work. They were built without any of the planning that makes cities functional and attractive. Koolhaas and Urhahn wanted to do their paintings in the same way the favelas were built, using local people to pain and letting the paintings be created without too much planning. First. they started spending a lot of time ir Vila Cruzeiro, a favela neighborhood. As local residents became excited about the project, Koolhaas and Urhahn began hiring local workers to paint the houses they selected. They worked for 18 months, and the result was colorful neighborhood paintings that cover dozens of buildings Critics of Koolhaas and Urhahn's art projects say that painting such troubled neighborhoods does no address the real problems they face. Koolhaas and Urhahn agree. They don't expect a painting to solve complex social and economic issues. However, they believe that bringing colorful art into disadvantaged neighborhoods does something else. It inspires the local residents and gives them pride in their community It changes attitude So Koolhaas and Urhahn will continue to bring art to troubled communities. They have worked in Haiti and Curacao and receive emails from interested cities every week. They hope their work wil encourage kids to pursue creative careers 24. What made Koolhaas and Urhahn decide to paint the streets? A. A documentary film. B. A visit to favelas. C. Their painting experience D. Their interest in hip-hop 25. What is a feature of the art project in Vila Cruzeiro? A. Color matching B. Local participation C. House rebuilding D. Resident relocation 26. What do Koolhaas and Urhahn think of their efforts? A. They develop the residents' techniaues of art B. They settle the social and economic problems C. They awaken a positive feeling to the community D. They draw official attention to disadvantaged areas 英语试题第5页(共12页) 27. Which can best describe Koolhaas and Urhahn's projects? A. Creative and highly-sought B. Influential and kid-centered C. Economical and time-consuming D. Complex and trouble-making , Snow can be a powerful reminder of childhood snow days-that joyful surprise when another expected day of sitting in school turned into one that was instcad filled with snowball fights or skating. But there are also plenty of reasons why snow can appeal to pcople without that fond nostalgia (怀l旧). Snow ouite literally changes our physical experience of the world. For example, freshly fallen snow is porous(多孔的) enough to absorb sound well, making the world quieter. And it plays even more strongly on our sense of sight. One aspect of that visual appeal is the way snow reflects light in the darker months “A lot of people really struggle with winter darkness as much as they struggle with the cold," says Leibowitz, who has written a book about mental health in winter. "The brightening effect of the snow, think, is really powerful." Snow changes the very shape of the world people see around them, Leibowitz says, pointing to the way a fresh blanket of it hides and yet reveals the surroundings. "Things that you look at every day suddenly can appear very different,"she says In the right conditions, snow can be fascinating. But for certain people, the same weather can become the very opposite: annoying, exhausting or depressing. Leibowitz recommends welcoming changing seasons, taking inspiration from the long nights and cold days-and argues that snow can be a helpful cue to do so. "It's such a clear visual reminder that we're in a different season that perhaps it inspires people tc respond more adaptively," she says But as climate change continues to unfold, some historically snowy areas will lose the most magical precipitation (降水) and face nothing but cold rain. "There are a lot of places in the world that are right on this borderline where the difference of a couple of degrees of warming is the difference between a white snowy winter..- and a gray, rainy winter." Leibowitz says. "I think there's a lot that is lost when we lose the cold and when we lose the snow." 28. What does the underlined word "one" refer to in paragraph 1? B.Asurprise. C.Aday. A.A reminder. D.A snowball 29. How does snow change our experience of the world? A. By making musical sounds B. By increasing the cold of winter C. By exercising our sense of sight D. By offering a new look of the world 30. What is Leibowitz's suggestion to snow haters? A. Searching for visual cues B. Ignoring negative emotions C. Adjusting to seasonal changes D. Cleaning unpleasant surrounding 英语试题第6页(共12页) 31. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. Express concern for snow loss B. Make predictions of climate change. C. Present reasons for increased rainfall D. Summarize consequences of cold rain D In 2o18, neuroscientist Yina Ma was at a ccremony at Beijing Normal University when the crowd began to sing the school song. Shouting along, she felt a flash of pride toward the university and a connection to those in the crowd who felt the same way. The moment left a lasting impression, inspiring her interest in brain synchronization (同步). "Something special must have been happening in our brains." Ma says. Scientists have been thinking about that "something special" since the 196Os. In 2ooOs, they systematically showed people's brains can coordinate (协调) in a phenomenon called "interbrain synchrony." In 2024, several studies-including one co-authored by Ma-provided new insight into the phenomenon. Taken together, the studies suggest that synchrony is much more common among strangers than once thought. Hoping to reveal how social bonding influences interactions, Ma and her colleagues separated their participants into teams of three and tracked the activity in the participants' cerebral cortices as some were bonded with their teams (assigned team colors and uniforms and asked to talk about team similarities via computer chat) while others simply computer chatted. The teams were asked to select leaders and then divide imaginary resources. Analyzing the team conversations and their brain scans, the researchers found that, though the bonded and nonbonded teams were made of strangers, the bonded teams achieved increased interbrain synchrony, which can be seen from more rapid and responsive discussion between leaders and followers. The study also suggests that strangers' brains can synchronize after a bit of bonding Another paper published in Scientific Reports arrived at a similar result. Comparing synchronizatior between pairs of strangers and pairs of acauaintances (泛泛之 交), the authors arranged for participants tc coordinate tapping a computer mouse, anticipating that the acquaintance pairs would perform better. The stranger pairs, however, showed stronger synchronization, suggesting that synchrony is high among people with weak and strong ties and low among acquaintances. It indicates that working with strangers requires more coordination and concentration, thus increasing interbrain synchronization While scientists now appreciate that brains synchronize, they still want to understand why, whether strange or familiar. 32. What led to the beginning of Ma's research A. The pride towards the university B. The cooperation of neuroscientists C. The connection to former classmates D. The scene of singing the school song 英语试题第7页(共12页) 33. What can we learn about Ma and her colleagues' study? A. Bonded teams interacted more efficiently. B. Bonded teams chose their team colors voluntarily C. Nonbonded teams worked without a leader D. Nonbonded teams divided imaginary resources faster 34.

It's easy to overlook small but significant steps toward your goals if you're focused on comparing yourself to others. Instead, what if you change your mindset to take into account the progress that is happening every day? 36 It is not just about word count or a finished manuscript (手稿). Here are some mindset shifts and actionable ideas 英语试题第8页(共12页) Redefine productive writing time. Writing involves more than time spent with a keyboard or a pen. Stepping away from your work can actually improve the quality of your writing. 37 Instead, treat that "off' time as just as valuable as sitting at your desk writing. You need to recharge to be creative and productive. 38 In order to set realistic goals, it's essential to know how long things actually take you to accomplish. That's why timing your writing sessions is important. Once you understand your personal output rate of words per hour, you can use timing data to set achievable goals and avoid unrealistic expectations. Rework your work space. Where you write has a big impact on how you feel about your work 39 If that's not an option, you can rearrange your current work area. Clear the mess, move your desk, get a new lamp-play around and see what feels right. A little novelty can break you out of a dull routine and change your mindset. Chart your progress. 40 For example, if you have a word count goal each day, make a calendar and give yourself a big check each time you meet it. Seeing all those checks can help remind you that you have a lot to be proud of! A. Breaks shouldn't cause guilt B. Assess your time management C. List realistic and actionable goals D. Sometimes a change of scenery can help E. It's important to acknowledge all aspects of the writing process F. K.eeping visual track of your progress can remind you of how far you've come G. Tapping into your own personal productivity style will make all the difference 第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On our first date, my now-husband asked, "What's your favourite book?"
