Often designed by popular architects,these pavilions (展馆) frequently feature unique appearances and architectural details.Reuse and sustainability are common themes in the event’s designs.Many structures have been designed for use long after the event,with plans to disassemble and move them or use the materials in new construction projects. While the rising cost of materials has raised some concerns about the number of pavilions to be constructed,there is still plenty to look forward to.The official Expo 2025 Instagram even previewed Singapore’s pavilion under construction.We’re sure to see more images like this in the lead-up to opening day in April 2025. In the meantime,the official Expo 2025 Instagram is generating excitement about what’s to come by sharing design previews for 15 different national pavilions.These architectural treasures will be open to the public from April 13 to October 13,2025.Here is a preview of some National Pavilions designed for Osaka Expo 2025. Inspired by Kuwait’s characteristic landscape and tradition,LAVA (Laboratory for Visionary Architecture) designed a pavilion with two symbolic wings that hug incoming visitors and light up in a nod to the country’s role as a sign of culture and tolerance. Lina Ghotmeh’s design for the Bahrain Pavilion highlights its rich maritime heritage as a major trade port.The Lebanese architect was also influenced by the shape of a dhow — a traditional wood sailing ship used throughout the Persian Gulf.

2.C　词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Many structures have...and move them or use the materials in new construction projects.”可知,这里指的是将建筑物拆解开来以便移动或使用材料进行新的建设项目,disassemble的含义为“拆开”。 3.D　推理判断题。根据第五段和第六段中“Lina Ghotmeh’s design for the Bahrain Pavilion highlights its rich maritime heritage as a major trade port.The Lebanese architect was also influenced by the shape of a dhow”可知,每个设计都融入了各自国家的文化元素。 4.D　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知,最后一段提到了一些国家馆的设计,基于此信息,接下来很可能会继续讨论其他建筑师为大阪世博会所设计的作品。 Ⅴ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在大学哲学课上通过写作作业,获得自信,并最终改变职业道路的经历。 1.B　根据空后“get a degree in engineering”可知,作者进入大学,打算获得工程学学位。 2.D　根据上文“Even more troubling”以及下文“he gave us total”可知,作者非常的困惑,更糟糕的是,教授没有提供指导方针,反而给了学生完全的自由,因此这里表示教授拒绝给出指导。 3.C　根据上文“Even more troubling was that the professor 　　　to give any guidelines”可知,教授没有给指导方针,可以推测出这里是指教授让学生自由完成作业。  4.A　根据上文“The first class I went to in college was philosophy”以及“there were no set answers here”可知,哲学论文没有标准答案,这里指的是作者需要自己弄清楚文章的意思。 5.B　根据下文“but the words were lost”可知,作者有许多笔记和想法,但是难以用语言表达出来。所以此处指想法是存在的。 6.C　根据下文“after a lot of stress,my ideas became more organized and the words fell on the page”可知,作者经过一段时间的努力,最终能够将想法组织起来,并开始写作。 7.D　根据上文“When I sat down to write,my notes and ideas were all 　　　,but the words were lost.I tried various strategies but nothing seemed to work 　　　,after a lot of stress,my ideas became more organized and the words fell on the page.”可知,上文描述的写作过程中的困难,这里指的是作者在不确定性中写作。  8.A　根据下文“upon reading his comments could not be overstated”可知,教授在返回论文时会给出成绩并对文章做评论。 9.C　根据下文“my reading of the essay was original”可知,教授对论文的评价是正面的,认为它有效且具有独创性。 10.B　根据上文“He gave me an A,suggesting that my essay was 　　　overall and my reading of the essay was original.”可知,作者因为得到好的评价而感到自信心增强。  11.D　根据下文“I left engineering and became a lawyer.”可知,作者因为这次经历的影响,决定不再学习工程学,最后成为了一个律师。所以这次经历对作者的影响远不止一篇论文,也就是扩大了影响的范围。 12.B　根据上文语境可知,作者从这次经历中学到了如何面对未知的挑战,即对挑战持开放态度。 13.A　根据上文“I left engineering and became a lawyer.”可知,哲学让作者有了勇气去发展新的职业方向。 14.C　根据上文“Philosophy helped me 　　　courage to try a new career path.”可知,作者意识到教育的价值在于个人的成长和发展。  15.D　根据上文“What I learned through this process 　　　well beyond a college
