Scientists and artists have a lot to learn from each other. That’s why The Flow Project was started at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2021 as part of Water@UW-Madison.
The Flow Project is still going today. It pairs undergraduate artists with water scientists to create art pieces inspired by water, ranging from paintings and drawings, clothes and sculptures, to dance and music. Their work highlights the value of art not only as a tool to communicate science, but also as a way to inspire new science.
Akriti Bagchi, an undergraduate student studying fashion design, was paired with Yuan Liu, a third-year PhD student in environmental engineering who studies storms and flooding in the Mississippi River Basin (流域).
Liu generates computer models of storms caused by atmospheric rivers, which are large amounts of water vapor (水蒸气) that move onto land from tropical seas. His models aim to estimate the flood risks associated with these storms in the Mississippi River Basin.
Patterns and designs from Liu’s research inspired visual elements that Bagchi transformed into a wearable jacket.
She designed the jacket with blue and brown yarns (纱线) through white fabric to present the multiple layers of water vapor involved in the storms Liu studies. The front of the jacket showcases patches (块) of fabric to form a map of the river basin. Bagchi chose each patch to represent the basin’s various regions.
“There’s so much you can do with fashion,” Bagchi said. “You can do all your research and you can find crazy solutions. And finding ways to show your thoughts in a creative sense or just in a very clear way is very important.”
But Bagchi’s art wasn’t the only thing inspired by the cooperation. Liu said talking with Bagchi throughout the process and seeing how she approaches problems encouraged him to take a step back and consider new approaches to his own work.
“I think it does shift a little bit of the focus when I’m doing research from just thinking about all those details, those mathematics, to the big picture,” said Liu. “That’s pretty important actually, for you to become a better scientist.”
4. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. How the project operates. B. What inspires art pieces.
C. What pairs artists with scientists. D. How new science is communicated.
5. What is the purpose of Liu’s computer models?
A. To assist in fashion designs. B. To predict the impact of flooding.
C. To understand the causes of storms. D. To smooth cooperation with artists.
6. What can the jacket designed by Bagchi be considered as?
A. The result of a scientific study. B. An innovation in fashion design.
C. A combination of art and science. D. A call for environmental protection.
7. What do Liu’s words in the last paragraph focus on?
A. His plan for becoming a better scientist.
B. The true meaning behind Bagchi’s artwork.
C. The benefit he gained from the cooperation.
D. The new methods he learned for his research.
C
In the digital age, the concept of “deep work” — the ability to put all your attention on a difficult task — is becoming increasingly valuable, yet increasingly rare. As Cal Newport, a computer science professor at Georgetown University, argues in his book Deep Work, the constant interruptions (干扰) from emails, social media notifications, and a culture of multitasking are distracting (分散) our attention. This “shallow work” while often unavoidable, doesn’t create much new value and is easy to do. It includes routine administrative tasks, reactive communication, and piecemeal efforts that occupy much of the modern workday but contribute little to meaningful progress or innovation.
Newport suggests that the ability to perform deep work is a superpower in our competitive economy. Those who can master the art of intense focus will be better at learning complex things quickly and producing high-quality output. To develop this skill, he proposes strategies such as scheduling strict blocks of time for deep work, embracing boredom instead of immediately seeking digital stimulation, and quitting social media to reduce the chance of getting distracted. He emphasizes the importance of creating environments that signal the brain to enter a state of deep concentration, thereby making it a habitual practice rather than an occasional feat.
However, critics point out that not all jobs allow for large, uninterrupted blocks of time. For many in service-oriented or cooperative roles, responsiveness is key, Teachers, healthcare workers, and customer support personnel, for example, must remain highly accessible and connected throughout their day. The challenge, then, is not to cancel all shallow work but to find a sustainable balance, perhaps by ritualizing (仪式化) deep work sessions and communicating one’s focus hours to colleagues. This approach acknowledges the necessity of collaboration(协作) while safeguarding periods dedicated to high-value tasks.
Ultimately, the goal is to develop a personalized workflow that respects both the need for focused productivity and the demands of interconnected professional environments. By consciously setting aside time for deep work and setting clear boundaries, individuals can enhance their efficiency without compromising their roles in team-based or service-driven settings. This balanced model not only boosts individual performance but also supports healthier, more sustainable work cultures in the long term.
8. According to the passage, what is a characteristic of “shallow work”?
A. It is difficult to manage. B. It creates much new value.
C. It takes little time of a workday. D. It is often unavoidable but less valuable.
9. What is Cal Newport’s main argument about deep work?
A. Multitasking is an essential skill now.
B. Email is the biggest source of interruption.
C. The ability to stay focused is highly valuable.
D. Social media platforms are to attract our attention.
10. What is the critics’ primary concern regarding deep work?
A. It is too difficult for the average person to learn.
B. It may not be practical for all types of professions.
C. The strategies proposed by Newport are ineffective.
D. It leads to increased stress and burnout among workers.
11. What does the underlined word “compromising” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Weakening. B. Dominating. C. Exposing. D. Claiming.
D
Electric vehicles (EVs) are a strong weapon in the world’s efforts against global warming. But the effects of EVs depend on what country you are in. In some nations, electric vehicles lead to the release of more carbon gasses than gasoline cars, new research shows.
The Radiant Energy Group (REG) compared gas emissions caused by a gasoline vehicle and from charging an electric vehicle. The study compared the emissions (排放) caused by charging a Tesla Model 3 to drive 100 kilometers with the emissions coming from an average gasoline car driven the same distance.
Countries where charging an electric vehicle is cleaner than driving a gasoline-powered car use a lot of hydroelectric, nuclear or solar power.
Sales of electric cars are rising the fastest in Europe. Data from REG suggests that EVs in Poland and Kosovo actually create more carbon emissions because their electric systems depend so much on coal.
In other European countries, however, EVs result in reduced emissions. The carbon gas reduction depends on what energy supplies electricity systems and the time of day vehicles are charged.
The countries with the biggest carbon gas savings from EVs use a lot of nuclear and hydroelectric power. An EV driver in Germany reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 55 percent over a gasoline car. Germany uses a mix of renewable energy and coal to produce electricity.
Germany and Spain create a lot of electricity from the sun and wind. But the sun and wind do not add to a country’s electricity system equally throughout the day.
For this reason, the amount of carbon emissions saved by driving an EV depends on the time of day it is being charged. Charging in the afternoon, when there is more sun and wind, saves 16 to 18 percent more carbon than at night when electricity systems are more likely to be using gas or coal.
Automakers including General Motors, Stellantis and Volkswagen have set targets to sell mainly electric vehicles in Europe in the coming years. U. S. car manufacturer General Motors said it will have all new electric cars by 2022.
12. We can learn from Para. 8 that ________.
A. the availability of charging stations is the key factor in EV adoption
B. the cost of EVs is the most significant barrier to their widespread adoption
C. the time of day when EVs are charged can greatly affect their carbon footprint
D. the type of battery used in EVs has a big impact on their overall carbon emissions
13. According to REG’s study, what caused the different results in carbon emission?
A. The limited coverage of national power system. B. The different energy sources for EV charging.
C. The varying time of day when EVs are sold. D. The lack of charging stations in rural areas.
14. What’s the attitude of automakers like General Motors towards EVs?
A. Unconcerned. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Puzzled.
15. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. The Global Shift to Electric Vehicle Adoption.
B. The Economics of Electric Vehicle Ownership
C. The Future of Renewable Energy in Automobiles.
D. The Environmental Impact of Electric Vehicle Charging.

Now she was back at the Capital Airport from abroad. Upon entering the airport, Lily wished she could hide her head under her collar. She was afraid to face the people who had come to welcome her right at the airport.
Two years before, Lily took part in an international competition for the first time, and unexpectedly she won two world titles. When Lily returned home that year, she was given a warm welcome in the same place. Many fans and reporters applauded her for the wonderful performance. And some stewardesses(女乘务员) would surround her, greeting warmly and presenting beautiful flowers. Of them, a quiet stewardesses named June always hugged her with a sincere smile, and said to her “You are beautiful”. Lily would smile brightly back at June, thinking of her as a special girl.
During the past two years, Lily had taken part in many international competitions and brought back many shining medals. She got smiles, flowers and cheers. She felt proud.
But the more she won, the more fear Lily had of losing. So her mind was, in fact, more burdened with success.
In order to avoid people at the airport, Lily hid herself among the crowd with a hat. Walking past a group of tourists holding cherry blossom flags, she saw reporters gathering near the luggage area. Their cameras followed a smiling badminton star as kids handed him sunflowers.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;

Scientists and artists have a lot to learn from each other. That’s why The Flow Project was started at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2021 as part of Water@UW-Madison.
The Flow Project is still going today. It pairs undergraduate artists with water scientists to create art pieces inspired by water, ranging from paintings and drawings, clothes and sculptures, to dance and music. Their work highlights the value of art not only as a tool to communicate science, but also as a way to inspire new science.
Akriti Bagchi, an undergraduate student studying fashion design, was paired with Yuan Liu, a third-year PhD student in environmental engineering who studies storms and flooding in the Mississippi River Basin (流域).
Liu generates computer models of storms caused by atmospheric rivers, which are large amounts of water vapor (水蒸气) that move onto land from tropical seas. His models aim to estimate the flood risks associated with these storms in the Mississippi River Basin.
Patterns and designs from Liu’s research inspired visual elements that Bagchi transformed into a wearable jacket.
She designed the jacket with blue and brown yarns (纱线) through white fabric to present the multiple layers of water vapor involved in the storms Liu studies. The front of the jacket showcases patches (块) of fabric to form a map of the river basin. Bagchi chose each patch to represent the basin’s various regions.
“There’s so much you can do with fashion,” Bagchi said. “You can do all your research and you can find crazy solutions. And finding ways to show your thoughts in a creative sense or just in a very clear way is very important.”
But Bagchi’s art wasn’t the only thing inspired by the cooperation. Liu said talking with Bagchi throughout the process and seeing how she approaches problems encouraged him to take a step back and consider new approaches to his own work.
“I think it does shift a little bit of the focus when I’m doing research from just thinking about all those details, those mathematics, to the big picture,” said Liu. “That’s pretty important actually, for you to become a better scientist.”
4. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. How the project operates. B. What inspires art pieces.
C. What pairs artists with scientists. D. How new science is communicated.
5. What is the purpose of Liu’s computer models?
A. To assist in fashion designs. B. To predict the impact of flooding.
C. To understand the causes of storms. D. To smooth cooperation with artists.
6. What can the jacket designed by Bagchi be considered as?
A. The result of a scientific study. B. An innovation in fashion design.
C. A combination of art and science. D. A call for environmental protection.
7. What do Liu’s words in the last paragraph focus on?
A. His plan for becoming a better scientist.
B. The true meaning behind Bagchi’s artwork.
C. The benefit he gained from the cooperation.
D. The new methods he learned for his research.

In the digital age, the concept of “deep work” — the ability to put all your attention on a difficult task — is becoming increasingly valuable, yet increasingly rare. As Cal Newport, a computer science professor at Georgetown University, argues in his book Deep Work, the constant interruptions (干扰) from emails, social media notifications, and a culture of multitasking are distracting (分散) our attention. This “shallow work” while often unavoidable, doesn’t create much new value and is easy to do. It includes routine administrative tasks, reactive communication, and piecemeal efforts that occupy much of the modern workday but contribute little to meaningful progress or innovation.
Newport suggests that the ability to perform deep work is a superpower in our competitive economy. Those who can master the art of intense focus will be better at learning complex things quickly and producing high-quality output. To develop this skill, he proposes strategies such as scheduling strict blocks of time for deep work, embracing boredom instead of immediately seeking digital stimulation, and quitting social media to reduce the chance of getting distracted. He emphasizes the importance of creating environments that signal the brain to enter a state of deep concentration, thereby making it a habitual practice rather than an occasional feat.
However, critics point out that not all jobs allow for large, uninterrupted blocks of time. For many in service-oriented or cooperative roles, responsiveness is key, Teachers, healthcare workers, and customer support personnel, for example, must remain highly accessible and connected throughout their day. The challenge, then, is not to cancel all shallow work but to find a sustainable balance, perhaps by ritualizing (仪式化) deep work sessions and communicating one’s focus hours to colleagues. This approach acknowledges the necessity of collaboration(协作) while safeguarding periods dedicated to high-value tasks.
Ultimately, the goal is to develop a personalized workflow that respects both the need for focused productivity and the demands of interconnected professional environments. By consciously setting aside time for deep work and setting clear boundaries, individuals can enhance their efficiency without compromising their roles in team-based or service-driven settings. This balanced model not only boosts individual performance but also supports healthier, more sustainable work cultures in the long term.
8. According to the passage, what is a characteristic of “shallow work”?
A. It is difficult to manage. B. It creates much new value.
C. It takes little time of a workday. D. It is often unavoidable but less valuable.
9. What is Cal Newport’s main argument about deep work?
A. Multitasking is an essential skill now.
B. Email is the biggest source of interruption.
C. The ability to stay focused is highly valuable.
D. Social media platforms are to attract our attention.
10. What is the critics’ primary concern regarding deep work?
A. It is too difficult for the average person to learn.
B. It may not be practical for all types of professions.
C. The strategies proposed by Newport are ineffective.
D. It leads to increased stress and burnout among workers.
11. What does the underlined word “compromising” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Weakening. B. Dominating. C. Exposing. D. Claiming.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】

(Newport认为,在竞争激烈的当下经济环境中,能进行深度工作的能力堪称一项超能力)”,说明他的核心观点是,保持专注的能力(深度工作)极具价值。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“However, critics point out that not all jobs allow for large, uninterrupted blocks of time. For many in service-oriented or cooperative roles, responsiveness is key. (然而,批评者指出,并非所有工作都能允许大段不受干扰的时间。对于许多从事服务型或协作型工作的人来说,快速响应能力才是关键。)”可知,批评者的担忧是,深度工作并非适用于所有职业类型。故选B项。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“By consciously setting aside time for deep work and setting clear boundaries, individuals can enhance their efficiency without compromising their roles in team-based or service-driven settings. (通过合理规划深度工作时间、设定工作边界,个体可以提升效率,同时不compromising自己在团队或服务型工作中的角色。)”可知个体应是在提高效率的同时不削弱自身在团队中的作用。也就是compromising在这里意为“削弱、损害”,与weakening同义。故选A项。

Electric vehicles (EVs) are a strong weapon in the world’s efforts against global warming. But the effects of EVs depend on what country you are in. In some nations, electric vehicles lead to the release of more carbon gasses than gasoline cars, new research shows.
The Radiant Energy Group (REG) compared gas emissions caused by a gasoline vehicle and from charging an electric vehicle. The study compared the emissions (排放) caused by charging a Tesla Model 3 to drive 100 kilometers with the emissions coming from an average gasoline car driven the same distance.
Countries where charging an electric vehicle is cleaner than driving a gasoline-powered car use a lot of hydroelectric, nuclear or solar power.
Sales of electric cars are rising the fastest in Europe. Data from REG suggests that EVs in Poland and Kosovo actually create more carbon emissions because their electric systems depend so much on coal.
In other European countries, however, EVs result in reduced emissions. The carbon gas reduction depends on what energy supplies electricity systems and the time of day vehicles are charged.
The countries with the biggest carbon gas savings from EVs use a lot of nuclear and hydroelectric power. An EV driver in Germany reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 55 percent over a gasoline car. Germany uses a mix of renewable energy and coal to produce electricity.
Germany and Spain create a lot of electricity from the sun and wind. But the sun and wind do not add to a country’s electricity system equally throughout the day.
For this reason, the amount of carbon emissions saved by driving an EV depends on the time of day it is being charged. Charging in the afternoon, when there is more sun and wind, saves 16 to 18 percent more carbon than at night when electricity systems are more likely to be using gas or coal.
Automakers including General Motors, Stellantis and Volkswagen have set targets to sell mainly electric vehicles in Europe in the coming years. U. S. car manufacturer General Motors said it will have all new electric cars by 2022.
12. We can learn from Para. 8 that ________.
A. the availability of charging stations is the key factor in EV adoption
B. the cost of EVs is the most significant barrier to their widespread adoption
C. the time of day when EVs are charged can greatly affect their carbon footprint
D. the type of battery used in EVs has a big impact on their overall carbon emissions
13. According to REG’s study, what caused the different results in carbon emission?
A. The limited coverage of national power system. B. The different energy sources for EV charging.
C. The varying time of day when EVs are sold. D. The lack of charging stations in rural areas.
14. What’s the attitude of automakers like General Motors towards EVs?
A. Unconcerned. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Puzzled.
15. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. The Global Shift to Electric Vehicle Adoption.
B. The Economics of Electric Vehicle Ownership
C. The Future of Renewable Energy in Automobiles.
D. The Environmental Impact of Electric Vehicle Charging.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. B 15. D

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了江苏泗洪的钱杆舞及其传承面临的问题和努力。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意:然而,对于江苏泗洪的当地人来说,钱杆舞是最能代表他们文化身份的传统。local为名词“当地人”,空处需用该名词的复数形式locals,表示泛指。故填locals。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:钱杆是一种由竹子或木头制成的棍子,通常装饰有铜钱、铃铛和丝带。空处需要非谓语形式作状语,逻辑主语A qiangan与decorate之间为被动关系,用过去分词作状语。故填decorated。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:钱杆舞表演者用钱杆轻拍肩膀、腰部、腿部和其他身体部位,同时随着当地民间音乐的节奏跳舞。use sth. to do sth.为固定短语,意为“使用某物做某事”,所以空处需要不定式。故填to tap。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意同上。当时间状语从句中的主语和主句主语一致且含有be动词时,可以省略从句的主语和be动词,本句话中,while引导的时间状语从句,完整的从句为“while they are dancing to the rhythm of local folk music”,所以省略主语和be动词。故填dancing。
【40题详解】
考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:由于其文化重要性,钱杆舞于2023年被认定为江苏省非物质文化遗产。空处为句子的谓语动词。根据时间状语in 2023可知,此处使用一般过去时,主语Qiangan Dance和recognize为被动关系,需用被动语态,主语为单数名词,be动词用was。故填was recognized。
【41题详解】
考查主语从句。句意:最让他感兴趣的是舞蹈背后的淮河文化。空处引导主语从句,从句缺少主语,指“最让人感兴趣的事情”,需用连接代词what引导该从句。位于句首,首字母需大写。故填What。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:泗洪县位于淮河沿岸,淮河将中国分为南北两部分。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词the Huaihe River,指物,且关系词在定语从句中作主语,需用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:尽管有其文化价值,钱杆舞在一定程度上仍有被遗忘的风险。根据“its cultural value, Qiangan Dance, to a certain extent, is at the risk of being forgotten.”可知,前后句之间为转折关系,需用介词despite“尽管”引导让步状语。位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Despite。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意:为了对抗这种文化无知,胡波成立了一个训练队。空处需填名词ignorance,作介词against的宾语,表示“无知”。故填ignorance。
【45题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:胡波还在网上分享表演,吸引了爱好者,激励他“把钱杆舞带到更大的舞台上”。暗含与现有舞台对比,所以空处需填形容词比较级bigger,作定语修饰名词stage。故填bigger。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Flowers for You
Flowers should be presented to winners. Why should they be given to this loser? Since she failed four days ago at the International Gymnastics Championships, Lily felt ashamed. Now she was back at the Capital Airport from abroad. Upon entering the airport, Lily wished she could hide her head under her collar. She was afraid to face the people who had come to welcome her right at the airport.
Two years before, Lily took part in an international competition for the first time, and unexpectedly she won two world titles. When Lily returned home that year, she was given a warm welcome in the same place. Many fans and reporters applauded her for the wonderful performance. And some stewardesses(女乘务员) would surround her, greeting warmly and presenting beautiful flowers. Of them, a quiet stewardesses named June always hugged her with a sincere smile, and said to her “You are beautiful”. Lily would smile brightly back at June, thinking of her as a special girl.
During the past two years, Lily had taken part in many international competitions and brought back many shining medals. She got smiles, flowers and cheers. She felt proud.
But the more she won, the more fear Lily had of losing. So her mind was, in fact, more burdened with success.
In order to avoid people at the airport, Lily hid herself among the crowd with a hat. Walking past a group of tourists holding cherry blossom flags, she saw reporters gathering near the luggage area. Their cameras followed a smiling badminton star as kids handed him sunflowers.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】When no one noticed her, Lily felt even more ashamed. She pulled her hat down, feeling some tears welling up in her eyes. The cheers for the badminton star pierced her ears like needles. She glanced down at her empty hands — no medals, no glory, just the bitter taste of defeat. She felt frustrated as if she was forgotten in a distant corner while others shone brightly. Lily was about to flee, when a soft voice “Lily” stopped her. Lily raised her head. The stewardess June stood before her with a warm smile on her face.
June handed Lily a bunch of flowers and hugged her gently. Lily froze, her hands trembling as the delicate flowers brushed her cheeks. Through unclear vision, she was touched by the familiar sincere smile that had once greeted her victories. “Why...?” she whispered weakly, holding the flowers like fragile hope. “You’ve always been beautiful,” June said softly, “not because of medals, but because you rise when you fall.” Lily felt a sense of warmth rising in her heart. And the flowers’ strong fragrance seemed to turn into a powerful force that went through her body. And immediately, she understood true beauty grew not from unbroken triumphs, but from the courage to rise and persist.
