But you’re selling yourself short if you don’t venture beyond the photo-friendly installation (装置). LACMA’s collections feature modernist masterpieces, large-scale contemporary works (including Richard Serra’s massive swirling (旋转) sculpture, Josiah McElheny’s Island Universe, and Burden’s another work called Metropolis Ⅱ), traditional Japanese screens and some of L.A.’s most consistently fantastic special exhibitions. However, the eastern half of LACMA’s campus is mostly closed as it wraps up a massive redesign called the David Geffen Galleries, due to open to the public in April 2026 (you can already see the massive concrete structure, which crosses over the top of Wilshire Boulevard, from the outside). But you’ll still find about a half-dozen special exhibitions and a bright presentation of the modern collection located in the existing Resnick Pavilion and BCAM. What’s On California-based Chinese artist Zheng Chongbin explores the Golden State through video installations and paintings; graphic designer Beeple’s Diffuse Control lets visitors collaborate with AI on a video-based sculpture; and Tavares Strachan’s first museum exhibition in L. A. is a collection of multisensory installations. Address 5905 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90036 Opening hours Monday, Tuesday, Thursday 11:00 am—6:00 pm; Friday 11:00 am—8:00 pm; Saturday, Sunday 10:00 am—7:00 pm; closed on Wednesday Pricing L. A. County Residents: $23，seniors and students $19, 17 and under free; Monday—Friday after 3:00 pm free. Non-residents: $28，seniors and students $24, ages 3—17 $13, 2 and under free. Free every second Tuesday of the month. 21. Who has two art pieces on display at LACMA? A. Beeple. B. Richard Serra. C. Chris Burden. D. Josiah McElheny. 22. What can visitors do at LACMA? A. Make unique sculptures in person. B. Admire a Chinese artist’s works. C. Enjoy classic films on Wednesdays. D. Watch a video about many designers. 23. How much is the Monday admission for a young foreign couple and their 3-year-old child? A. $46 B. $56 C. $65 D. $69 B A decade ago, when Marie Kondo published The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, the activity once seen as a boring household chore became popular. From the wildly successful social media “cleanfluencer”, Mrs Hinch, to BBCl’s Sort Your Life Out, British tidying has somehow acquired the moral authority of spiritual practice, along with apparent entertainment value. But it currently seems to stop at the front door. In the street, the fashionable obsession (痴迷) with order and cleanliness disappears. Last week, a reporter noted the sad contrast between the immaculate and tree-lined streets of Canada, where she had recently been on holiday, and the weed-and litter-filled streets of Britain. As long ago as 1954, the Women’s Institute started a national anti-litter campaign, and in 1960, the charity Keep Britain Tidy was founded. Ever since, a group of brave volunteers armed with litter-grabbing tools has battled against the advance of rubbish dropped by people who can’t be bothered to find a bin, or take it home. Now, something more is needed to inspire British people into tidying our parks and streets as hard as we do our homes. The answer may come from Japan. SpoGomi, a combination of “sport” with “gomi (Japanese word for rubbish)”, is a competitive litter-picking sport, where teams pick up as much rubbish as possible in two 45-minute sessions, with points awarded for speed and the weight of the rubbish. Sarah Parry, who was part of the winning team, explained the charm of SpoGomi. She said, “It turns the boring chore of collecting litter into a competitive sport, and it gets you fit while helping the environment. Most importantly, it makes people notice litter, rather than accepting it as an unavoidable part of their surroundings.” Also, Sarah has written and broadcast extensively about her litter-picking in the countryside around her home: “You can tell where my territory ends and the rest of England begins. It’s like going from the rose garden to a city after a tsunami (海啸) .” 24. What is British tidying in the street like at present? A. It is wildly successful. B. It is far from satisfaction. C. It brings pressure to tourists. D. It becomes popular worldwide. 25. What does the underlined word “immaculate” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Slightly empty. B. Especially silent. C. Extremely clean. D. Relatively cheerful. 26. What should Britain learn from Japan when it comes to tidying? A. Founding a nationwide charity. B. Hiring more park and street workers. C. Publishing modern magazines on tidying. D. Turning litter-picking into a competitive sport. 27. What can be known about Sarah Parry? A. She is a professional athlete. B. She speaks highly of SpoGomi. C. She prefers to live in a big city. D. She finds litter-picking exhausting. C We know a lot about why people work for their own rewards, but much less about why they sometimes put in the same effort when the reward goes to someone else. Previous research in both animals and humans has shown that boosting dopamine, a chemical associated with pleasure, motivation, and reward, can increase the willingness to exert (耗费) effort to obtain rewards for ourselves. What we don’t yet fully understand is whether the same brain chemical that fuels our personal motivation also makes us more willing to help others. To find out, a group of researchers turned to people with Parkinson’s disease because many take dopamine-boosting medication to manage their symptoms, so it created a natural experiment. In the experiment, participants made a choice between two options: A “work” offer that was higher in physical effort but obtained a better reward versus a “rest” offer that was equal in duration but involved no physical effort and obtained a worse reward. In half of the rounds, the Parkinson’s patients decided whether to try to obtain rewards to increase their own bonus. During the other half, they were provided with the same offers, but were informed that rewards earned would be delivered to others instead of themselves. When the patients were off their medication, they were less likely to choose the harder “work” option when the reward was for someone else than when rewards were for themselves. This is known as a “self-bias” and is common in healthy participants and the patients. However, when the patients were on their dopamine-boosting medication, the patients were less biased and relatively more helpful towards others. While medication is not a shortcut to boosting kindness, the study carries the potential to provide valuable clues about the interplay between brain chemistry and our social world. The results from this study provide the first insight into the neurochemicals behind prosocial (亲社会) effort and also highlight dopamine as a key to working hard to help others. 28. Why were people with Parkinson’s disease chosen to be study subjects? A. They were good at making decisions. B. Their symptoms were fairly detectable. C. Their medication was related to dopamine. D. They could easily be attracted by rewards. 29. What did participants tend to do due to a “self-bias”? A. Make efforts for their own benefit. B. Seize opportunities to help strangers. C. Reject dopamine-boosting medication. D. Take part in various voluntary activities. 30. What is the last paragraph mainly about concerning the study? A. Its value. B. Its process. C. Its limitation. D. Its background. 31. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Prosocial Behaviors Prove Demanding B. Medication Is a Shortcut to Boosting Kindness C. Patients Become More Dependent on Dopamine D. Dopamine Affects Our Willingness to Help Others D Around the world, many well-known studies have suggested our planet is currently going through a mass extinction and that extinction rates are getting faster. However, a new study led by scientists at the University of Arizona has shed light on a more positive perspective: extinction rates in plants and some animals appear to have peaked around 100 years ago and have declined since then. The new paper argues that claims of a current mass extinction rely on shaky assumptions that project data from past extinctions into the future, ignoring differences in the factors driving extinctions in the past, present and future. For their study, the researchers analyzed rates and patterns of recent extinctions, specifically across 912 species of plants and animals that went extinct over the past 500 years. In total, data from almost two million plants and animals were included in the analysis. Most extinctions occurred among species on isolated (孤立的) islands, such as the Hawaiian Islands. On continents, however, most extinctions were in freshwater habitats. Island extinctions were most frequently related to invasive (入侵的) species, but habitat loss was the most important cause and current threat in continental regions. Many species appeared to go extinct on islands because of predators and competitors brought by humans, such as rats, pigs and goats. The researchers also found that in the last 200 years, there was no evidence of increasing extinction from climate change, though they had assumed it to be a key factor. “That doesn’t mean that climate change isn’t a threat,” said lead author Kristen Saban. “It just means that past extinctions don’t reflect current and future threats.” For some groups—such as arthropods, plants and land vertebrates-extinction rates have actually declined over the past 100 years, notably since the early 1900s. One of the reasons for these declining rates is that many people are working hard to keep species from going extinct. “By looking at the data in this way, we hope our study helps inform our overall understanding of biodiversity loss—and how we can come up with better ways to restore biodiversity,” said Saban. 32. What is a conclusion drawn by many well-known studies? A. Species will go extinct more rapidly. B. A mass extinction won’t happen again. C. Extinction rates in plants have declined. D. Biodiversity loss has stabilized recently. 33. What does the new study suggest about the extinct species over the past 500 years? A. Invasive species are to blame for all of them. B. They are a reliable indicator of future threats. C. The causes of their extinction vary regionally. D. Climate change remains a dominating factor. 34. For the researchers of the new study, their finding about climate change is ______. A. frightening B. unexpected C. disappointing D. unacceptable 35. What does Kristen Saban expect of the new study? A. It can standardize global cooperation. B. It can be creative in its study methods. C. It can warn people of a mass extinction. D. It can help to deal with biodiversity loss. 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。 Perhaps you’re in school now, or you remember the days when you were. There’s nothing like the excitement of picking classes and building your schedule. Now, a new online trend called “personal curriculum” is bringing that back-to-school feeling into everyday life this autumn. 36 It’s a magical way to create a lesson plan tailored to your own interests this autumn, from getting lost in a book or journaling to learning a new skill like crochet, mindfulness, or baking. Activities can be as simple as selecting podcasts, taking online courses, or assigning yourself small, interactive projects. The best part about the trend is its flexibility. 37 All of them are based on your will and time. It’s a grown-up version of playing school, but this time you have the freedom to curate (策划) everything. So, why try the trend? During the autumn, some people experience the autumn slump, which is marked by a drop in energy and motivation. 38 It can also allow you to take control over your well-being through making your schedule and providing you with the opportunity to engage in mindful activities, improve your mood through dopamine-boosting tasks, and build consistent habits through a structure that works best for you. 39 Focus on the topics you care about instead of what everyone else is doing. Set gentle, achievable goals and remember that progress is the priority not being perfect. Schedule small time blocks in your day for activities you’re excited about, whether it’s reading a book, knitting, or painting. 40 Self-compassion (自怜) can go a long way. A. Following a trend can bring various benefits. B. The exciting trend involves building your own “semester”. C. You choose your own subjects, create assignments and set goals. D. When you try the trend, there is something you should bear in mind. E. Get a much-needed boost of energy through your favorite activity this autumn. F. Finally, be kind to yourself even if you’ve left a project unfinished or missed a day. G. However, the trend can help through keeping your brain engaged and boosting motivation. 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。 It was at 2:00 am, my friends and I were cold, wet, and sandy at Baker Beach at the base of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Grandma had been wanting their maple nut bread for weeks, and she’d promised to buy me a giant cinnamon (肉桂) roll if I helped her carry the groceries later. The bakery smelled like warm butter and cinnamon as we pushed open the wooden door and the bell above the entrance rang softly. As I leaned against the glass case to look at the giant cinnamon rolls, I noticed a boy standing a few feet away. He was about 10, two or three years younger than I. He had messy blond hair and wore an old blue jacket that was too small for him. His fingers were pressed lightly against the window and his eyes were fixed on a giant cinnamon roll. Every time he breathed, a small cloud of fog formed on the glass. Just then, Mrs. Henderson said to the boy sharply, “Kid, window-shopping is not allowed—we’re busy with orders.” The boy jumped back like he’d been burned, and his face turned red. However, he still glanced at the giant cinnamon roll from time to time. Driven by something in my heart, I walked to the boy. He looked a little frightened at first, but when I asked him if he liked cinnamon rolls, too, he nodded shyly. “Actually, it’s for my little sister,” he said almost in a whisper. “Today is her birthday... and she talked about cinnamon rolls when we walked past the bakery last month. I have saved my pocket money for a month, but I only have $1.25… but a cinnamon roll costs $3.” Seeing Grandma examining freshly baked bread, I thought about the cinnamon roll I had been promised, the one I could almost taste. Then I looked at the boy’s hopeful and worried face. 注意：1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I knew what I had to do._____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ On the drive home, Grandma handed me a warm paper bag.________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
