Making a reservation beforehand B Ghanaian photojournalist Paul Ninson was thrilled - and surprised When he came to New York to study photography five years ago, he found a rich collection of images of life in Africa, past and present, in the city's libraries, galleries and museums. Here he was thousands of miles from Ghana (加纳) surrounded by more visual history of Africa than he had ever seen back home That led to an idea: create a library of photobooks in Ghana, which allows people to learn about their own history and gives them the tools to tell new stories of the continent This idea has been realized with the creation of the Dikan Center in Accra, Ghana's capital Dikan means "take the lead" in the Akan language To create the center, Ninson travelled around New York City for books to ship to Ghana He searched secondhand stores on the Lower East Side, engaged in online bidding wars and reached out to publishers and galleries, some of whom donated hundreds of materials. He maxed out his credit cards and lined his apartment walls with books, using Uber and U-Hau trucks to transport the books to storage units he rented across the city. He managed to collect more than 30,ooo volumes - mainly about photography filmmaking, but also issues of publications like National Geographio dating back to the early 194Os. Ninson had additional support from his friend and collaborator, Brandon Stanton, who started a GoFundMe that raised over $1.2 millon for the founding of Dikan. In December 2022, the Dikan Center was opened. In a former residence that was renovated (翻新) to house the center, anyone is welcome to sit with the African story as long as they'd like. 高一英语 第4页共11页 表 CS扫描全能王 亿人在用趋扫描App Michael Itkoff, a supporter of Ninson and the Dikan Center from the start, says photobooks offer a different visual experience in today's world. "The photobook allows for an intimate - and I would say elegant - experience of visuals." says Itkoff 24. What is Ninson's purpose of creating the Dikan Center? A. To bring the African story home B. To change people's attitude to America C. To pursue his passion for photography D. To create a sharing space for book-lovers 25. What does paragraph 5 mainly focus on? A.

How would Itkoff describe the experience of reading photobooks? A. An ideal tool for art education B. An escape from a fast-paced life C. A dive into the richness of stories D. A beautiful encounter with visuals 27. What is the text mainly about? A. The realization of a big dream B. The influence of a social trend C. The development of photobooks D. The growth of a genius photographer C Some people have said aging is more a slide into forgetfulness than a journey towards wisdom. However, a growing body of research suggests that late-in-life learning is possible. In reality, education does an aging brain good Throughout life, people's brains constantly renovate themselves. In the late 196Os, British brain scientist Geoffrey Raisman spied growth in damaged brain regions of rats through an electron microscope: their brains were forming new connections. This meant brains may change every time a person learns something new Of course, that doesn't mean the brain isn't affected by the effects of time. Just as height usually declines over the years, so does brain volume: Humans lose about 4 percent every decade starting in their 40s. But that reduction doesn't necessarily make people think slower; as long as we are alive and functioning, we can alter our brains with new information and experiences. In fact. scientists now suspect accumulating novel experiences, facts, and skills can keep people's: minds more flexible. New pathways can strengthen our ever-changing mental structure, even as the brain shrinks Conventional fixes like word puzzles and brain-training apps can contribute to mental 高一英语 第5页共11页 表 CS扫描全能王 寻亿人在用趋扫描Ap{ durability. Even something as simple as taking a different route to the grocery store or going somewhere new on vacation can keep the brain healthy. A desire for new life challenges can further boost brainpower. Research about aging adults who take on new enterprises shows improved function and memory as well as a reduced risk of mental disease. Openness-a characteristic defined by curiosity and a desire for knowledge- may also help folks pass brain tests. Some folks are born with this take-in-the-world attitude. but those who aren't as genetically gifted aren't necessarily out of luck. While genes can encourage an interest in doing new things, a 2024 study in the journal Psychology and Aging found completing reasoning tasks like puzzles and number games can enhance that desire for novel experiences, which can, in turn, refresh the brain. That's why brain scientist Richard Kennedy says "It's not that old dogs can't learn new tricks. It's that maybe old dogs don' realize why they should." 28. What do some people think of aging adults? A. Their wisdom grows as time goes by. B. Their memory gradually declines C. They can benefit from late-in-life learning D. They are likely to have mental health issues 29. What can we conclude from Geoffrey Raisman's finding? A. Brain damage makes it difficult for people to learn B. Brain power weakens slower than we imagine C. Brains can refresh and improve with learning D. Brains can't renovate themselves 30. What does the author say can contribute to the improvement of brain function? A. Being curious and desiring knowledge B. Being eager to pass brain tests at an old age C. Rising to life's challenges and avoiding risks D. Boosting immunity to serious mental diseases 31. What is the finding of the 2o24 study in the journal Psychology and Aging A. Wishing to solve puzzles enhances one's reasoning power. B. Playing number games unexpectedly stimulates one's memory C. Desiring new experiences can help to renovate the brain D. Old people can't learn new tricks D The average American reportedly gets about 70 smartphone notifications (通 知) a day According to a new study from Common Sense Media, the number is far higher for teenagers whose phones ding and vibrate (振 动) with hundreds or even thousands of daily alerts. This constant flood distracts us from work, life and each other. "The simple ping of a notification is enough to pull our attention elsewhere," said 高一英语 第6页共11页 CS扫描全能王 亿人在用趋扫描Ap{ Professor Kosta Kushlev, a behavioral scientist at Georgetown University. "Even if we don't check them. This can affect productivity and stress, but also our own well-being and those around us." I doubted those figures until I scrolled through my own home screen. I get push alerts from news sites, local governments, delivery services, sellers offering discounts and flash sales, andmore. "Humans are not good at multitasking." remarked Kushley. "It takes extra time and effort to switch our attention. We feel more depleted. We get interrupted so many times a day that these effects can add up to meaningful decreases in our well-being and social connection." I am grateful for up-to-the-minute pings on the shakeup in Congress or that the Bears have won: I'm eager for messages from our family. But I wonder why The New York Times feels it is urgent to alert me, as they did this week, about "The 6 Best Men's and Women's Cashmere Sweaters". This is, of course, a situation mostly of our own making, constructed click by click. We can choose to check notifications just a couple of times a day. But does that risk delay, real or imagined. in seeing something we really need to see? Or that would simply delight us? The promise of instant communication has turned into information overload. So many urgent notifications, not many of which are truly urgent: and only a few are even interesting. So many hours spent staring at the light of a small screen, as if it were a crystal ball, searching for news, rumors, opportunity and direction, while often ignoring the world around us. 32. Why does the author mention his own notifications in paragraph 3? A. To challenge the study's findings B. To contrast with teenagers' experiences. C. To prove that phone pings are overwhelming D. To highlight the variety of notifications that exist 33. What does the underlined word "depleted" in paragraph 4 most probably mean? C. Inspired. B. Satisfied. A. Exhausted. D. Amazed. 34. What does the author auestion about some notifications? A. Their accuracy. B. Their relevance. C. Their frequency. D. Their equality 35. Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the text? A. Fewer dings, please B. More dings, more information C. No more social connections. D. A. guide to avoiding information overload CS扫描全能王 亿人在用趋扫描Ap{ 第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 根据短文内容,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。 Discovering Your True Self Is Vital to Happiness!
