Amalia Garcia Lopez and Carlos Lafuente Picazo,two final-year university students from
Spain,have just wrapped up a nine-day trip to Shanghai-a city they might one day consider
calling home.
They were participants in the Young Explorer Program,a program designed to bring
international members of Gen Z to China and introduce them to Shanghai.The program offers
overseas youth the opportunity to experience Chinese culture firsthand and foster people-to-
people exchange and mutual understanding.
Twenty-two young people from different cultural backgrounds took part in the immersive
journey.Their route included guided city walks and visits to companies in the city,offering a
deep dive into Shanghai's society and culture.The group explored museums and heritage sites to
learn about the city's history,visited iconic tourist attractions to experience its modern vibe,
engaged with traditional Chinese culture in local communities,and discovered thriving business
hubs and revitalized(焕发话力的)historic neighborhoods.
All participants described the trip as both enjoyable and rewarding.During the trip,they
were particularly impressed by Shanghai's diversity-describing the city as "cosmopolitan(
性的)”and“dynamic'”.
"I was coming to Shanghai with the impression that it's like a city of the future,and so far,
I feel like I'm seeing it for real,"said Lopez."I think Shanghai is a city made for everyone.I've
seen people from all over the world here,and you can find whatever you need.It has so much to
offer to make whoever comes feel comfortable.
"Another thing that surprised me is that Shanghai has a lot of nature,and it is so green,"
Lopez added."It's the perfect mix between society and nature,and it's a city that's growing
every day.So,for me it was quite shocking because I think when cities expand,they tend to just
get rid of the trees and nature.
4.What does the underlined phrase "wrapped up"in paragraph 1 mean?
A.Ended successfully.
B.Packed carefully.
C.Covered completely.
D.Celebrated joyfully.
5.What is the Young Explorer Program for?

California's Stanford University has launched its first class taught fully with virtual reality,
or VR,which involves the creation of digital environments that can be entered and controlled by
humans.The new class is called Virtual People.It is taught by Jeremy Bailenson,a professor of
communication.He came up with the idea after teaching students about VR for nearly 20 years.
During that time,he saw the technology continue to develop and decided the best way to
demonstrate its abilities was to create a full course experience with VR.
Virtual People covers the expanding influence of VR in many different fields,including
popular culture,engineering,behavioral science and communication.Each week,the course
centers on different areas where VR can be used in the real world.The course also includes times
龙门卷
英语·专题卷(十一)第2页(共8页)
when students have individual VR experiences,as well as times when the whole class enters a
VR environment at the same time.
In the class,each student receives an Oculus Quest 2 headset to use throughout the course.
It permits them to see virtual objects and,along with electronic controllers,to experience VR
environments.In addition,the course also needs software to connect the students and teachers.
For this,Bailenson selects ENGAGE,the communication system used by major companies and
educational organizations to hold online meetings and events.
"Last year,the course permitted 263 students to spend nearly 3,500 shared hours together
in VR environments,"Bailenson said."They virtually toured factories,took virtual field trips,
held group discussions and even participated in live music events and other performances."
Allison Lettiere took the class before graduating in the field of computer science.She said
that in the past,she mostly thought of VR as being linked to video games.But she said the
course taught her valuable information about the technology that she might be able to use in her
career."The class was particularly helpful,said Lettiere."It permitted me to virtually walk in
someone else's shoes.
8.Why did Jeremy Bailenson decide to start the VR course?
A.To test a newly invented educational tool.
B.To show VR's great potentials to students.
C.To help students improve their performances.
D.To facilitate group discussions in the classroom.
9.What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A.Contents of the VR classes.
B.The development of Virtual People.
C.Qualifications for admission.
D.A detailed schedule of the VR course.
10.What can we learn about ENGAGE?
A.It permits users to see VR settings.
B.It is designed by Jeremy Bailenson.
C.It is one of the electronic controllers.
D.It is used to provide communication.
11.What did Allison Lettiere say about the virtual class?
A.It seemed like playing video games.
B.It helped her see potential users'needs.
C.VR might be widely used in other industries.
D.More valuable information should be provided.

For theatergoers,it produces an all too familiar sinking feeling.You open your Playbill and
a little piece of paper slips out,alerting you that a member of the cast is out and someone
unexpected will be performing.
For understudies who are finally getting a turn in the spotlight,though,those little slips
offer rare moments of recognition.Love them or hate them,they are a Broadway tradition on the
way out.
A little-noticed provision in a contract agreed to this month between the Broadway League
and Actors'Equity Association would make those "stuffers"optional.The deal,which is being
voted on by Equity members,allows shows to announce most cast changes through QR codes(
printed in Playbills,along with either a verbal announcement or a cast list posted at the
entrance.
But some Broadway stars who came up the hard way fear that few audience members will
bother to scan the QR codes with their phones to see who is performing.
"I understand,from an environmental standpoint,that they're wasteful,and I understand
why producers,cost-wise and for other reasons,don't want them,"said Julie Benko,a former
understudy who caught a break and made it big."But,"she went on,"I think the understudies,
the swings and the standbys do so much work with so little recognition-this is a little piece of
paper that makes sure they're acknowledged by the people who are watching them.

Broadway will not be the first to try a digital alternative.QR codes are already an option for
touring Broadway shows in the United States.
Jennifer Ashley Tepper,a producer and author of Broadway history books,said she kept
"several framed understudy slips from performances when friends and future stars went on for
roles that they covered."She called the change "a bittersweet shift".
"The end of understudy slips,she said,"means yet another physical part of theater history
will disappear..”
12.What do we know about the piece of paper mentioned in the first paragraph?
A.It is a Broadway souvenir.
B.It disappoints theatergoers.
C.It announces a schedule change.
D.It summarizes Playbill contents.
13.What change does the contract allow?
A.Opting for Playbills.
B.Digitizing cast updates.

14.What message about Julie Benko does paragraph 5 convey?
A.She worked as a movie producer.
B.She supported phasing out stuffers.
C.She leaped from understudy to star.

Keeping a Diary
In the digital age,diaries still hold their value.
16 Yet many distinguished people,including established writers,have kept diaries for
years.Famous fictional diary-keepers like Adrian Mole and Bridget Jones also show how deeply
this practice is rooted in culture.Indeed,diaries have long been a tool for self-reflection across
generations.
Diaries offer many benefits.They support mental health by providing a safe place to express
feelings and process difficult experiences.17 Regular practice sharpens thinking and even
boosts creativity.A diary also helps you remember events and activities.When applying for
jobs,for example,you often need to recall specific moments when you demonstrated a skill.A
diary provides ready examples.
Today,there are more choices than ever.You might use a secure app like Penzu,a note-
taking tool like Google Keep,or simply type into a Word document.18 Digital formats are
convenient and backed up in the cloud,though editing may hide your raw,honest reactions.
Paper diaries offer total privacy.Each method suits different preferences and purposes.
Getting started is simple:just write.19 Write as if to a friend-or your future self.
Just begin-even briefly each day.Miss a few days?Start again.And remember:your diary can
include sketches,tickets,or photos-it's your personal record,as unique as you are.The key is
consistency,not perfection.
While few among us will ever become the sort of person whose diaries are published and sold
around the world,keeping a diary is well worth giving it a go.20
A.Don't worry about the quality.
B.Few diaries become bestsellers.
C.Blogs offer a public alternative.
D.Everyone can gain from this habit.
E.Keeping a diary improves writing skills.
F.Apps make keeping diaries fast and easy.
G.Diaries sound old-fashioned for some people.

At an altitude over 4,500 meters in Burang County,Ngari Prefecture,Southwest China's
Xizang Autonomous Region,lies Mapam Yumco Lake.For over a decade,42-year-old Dradul
has dedicated himself to protecting the wetland around this precious lake as an ecosystem
guardian.

Before becoming a guardian,Dradul struggled with temporary jobs and hoped for a steady
salary.Now,he earns a stable monthly income of 2,000 yuan and comes to feel a deep sense of
purpose."Protecting this lake makes me proud.It's not just work-it's about preserving it for
future generations,"he said.
Dradul's workday begins early.He patrols()a fixed 10-kilometer route by motorcycle,
with duties including observing the reserve,recording data,and addressing ecological threats.
Last February,he and his team rescued a wing-broken eagle,sending it to a rescue center until it
recovered.This July,they spent 20 minutes pulling a trapped wild out of a mudflat with ropes.
Educating visitors is another core task.Dradul reminds tourists not to litter,drive on delicate
grasslands,or leave waste."In the past,the wetland was full of garbage and had fewer wild
animals,"Dradul recalled.Today,the wetland is home to 411 plant species and 157 wildlife
species-a remarkable level of biodiversity for such a high-altitude area.
Yet,the work is far from easy.Climate change is a major threat:melting ice and shifting
rainfall patterns cause shoreline changes and grassland degradation.Human activities also
continue-some visitors still litter,bathe,or wash cars in the lake.With nearly 99,000 hectares
(of wetland and only 90 guardians,remote areas can't be patrolled daily.
Despite these difficulties,Dradul remains hopeful.He dreams of Mapam Yumco Lake
staying pure forever."This responsibility,though built on small daily efforts,must be passed
down.With sincerity and commitment,even the simplest actions can safeguard the lake's beauty
for generations,"he emphasized.
4.What's the original purpose of Dradul to work as a guardian?
A.To earn a stable income.
B.To help animals in need.
C.To protect a precious wetland.
D.To seek a sense of purpose.
5.Which of the following can best describe Dradul's job?
A.Well-paid but dangerous.
B.Relaxing and effective.
C.Challenging but worthwhile.
D.Flexible and professional.
6.What does the underlined word "degradation"in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Improvement.B.Expansion.
C.Decline.
D.Stability.
7.What can we learn from Dradul?
A.Every cloud has a silver lining.
B.Actions speak louder than words.
C.Chance favors the prepared mind.
D.Small efforts make a big difference.

In an age when artificial intelligence(AI)is increasingly engaged in the creative process,a
question is raised for viewers and institutions:What is counted as art when the human hand is no
longer directly involved in crafting the work?Major museums are now wrestling with this
question and are striving to teach the public to see beyond mere visual excitement.
For pioneering AI artists,the act of art creation lies in writing code and curating()
data.They spend months or even years building and polishing AI models,adding their ideas into
every technical detail.Artist Casey Reas states,"I don't really believe in the artist's hand;I
believe in the artist's point of view."Another artist,Refik Anadol,has even planned to build an
AI art museum in Los Angeles.Named Dataland,the museum will have its own AI model for
use by artists-built with support from Google and Nvidia and trained on half a billion images,
all collected with the permission of the owners."Without museums,the art forms are lonely,"
said Anadol."To me,the museums are the campfire for humanity,gathering people to share
and appreciate art..”
Al art is not entirely new,as it has roots in computer experiments from the 1960s.It
stepped into public view in 2018 when Portrait of Edmond de Belamy was sold at Christie's.
Today,some museums like the Tate Modern recognize it as a "cultural milestone".However,

others such as the Nasher Museum remain hesitant.Some curators even argue that AI does not
qualify as art and warn that audiences can quickly tire of works that rely only on technological
novelty.
At the New York Armory Show in 1913,American audiences were unsettled by cubism(
)Today's AI-generated works arouse similar unease,challenging audiences to decide
whether new tools expand or narrow the meaning of art.As MoMA's curator Antonelli notes,
the initial "drunkenness"with new technology eventually gives way to calmness,and audiences
will develop their own critical sense to determine which institutions and works truly matter in
this evolving landscape.
8.What is pioneering AI artists'focus of art creation?
A.The artist's insight over skill.
B.The novelty of visual technology.
C.The importance of data collection.D.The need for physical craftsmanship.
9.What concern do skeptical curators raise about AI art?
A.AI art's technology may become outdated easily.
B.AI-generated works'appeal may disappear soon.
C.AI art's technology holds no cultural significance.
D.AI-generated works depend on technological advancement.
10.What can be inferred about new art forms from the last paragraph?
A.They should be regulated by museums.
B.They will always change the meaning of art.
C.Public reaction to them follows a similar pattern.
D.Cubism has greater public acceptance than AI art.
11.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.Is AI the Idiot,or the Artist?
B.When Using AI,What Counts as Art?
C.How do Museums Learn to Frame AI Art?
D.From Cubism to Code:Is traditional Art Over?

By the age of 5,children are much better than both young and adult monkeys at shifting
their attention from one set of rules to another.Their findings add to evidence that unique
cognitive changes occur in humans before they reach 5 years of age.Like memory and self-
control,switching between "mental sets",such as rules or instructions,is a core cognitive
ability developed at young age.It lets us quickly adjust to changes in the environment,for
example,choosing a different way to get somewhere when our focus is blocked.
Eva Reindl at the University of St Andrews in the UK and her colleagues designed a set of
tasks to compare attention-shifting abilities in humans and monkeys of different ages.
Children and monkeys,which ranged from 5 to 36 years in age,were trained to determine
which of four cups on two different sets of shelves contained a reward-stickers for children and
bananas for chimps.On the green shelves,a green cup held the treats,while on the blue
shelves,it was a pink cup.
When they had to switch from one set of shelves to another,the monkeys successfully
selected the right cup 52 per cent of the time.This is comparable to 3-year-old children,who had
a success rate of 50 per cent,and 4-year-olds,who chose correctly in 59 per cent of cases.
Among 5-year-olds,the success rate was far higher,at 80 per cent."There's definitely
something going on from 5 years of age,says Reindl.
"The improvement on the task with age in children is probably due to biological changes
such as the development of the brain's frontal lobes(a额叶),”says Reindl.“But cultural
development may play a more important role.Just as adults voice phone numbers or directions
aloud to remember them,language may have helped the older children to switch between the two
rules.”

"Although testing tendency makes it hard to compare humans with other monkeys,the
general findings are straight-forward,says Frans at Emory University in Atlanta,Georgia.
"It's hard to argue with the conclusion that 5-year-old children do better than younger ones and
better than monkeys of various ages,including adults."
12.What can we infer from the first paragraph?
A.Human cognitive abilities don't start until 5 years old.
B.Adult monkeys are more disciplined than 5-year-old kids.
C.Self-control is a cognitive ability unique to adult monkeys.
D.5-year-old kids have better flexible thinking than monkeys.
13.How did Eva Reindl make the findings?
A.By consulting other researchers.
B.By collecting data from reference books.
C.By observing monkeys'rewarding system.
D.By comparing behaviors of kids and monkeys.
14.What does Reindl think leads to cognitive changes in children besides age?
A.Their eating habits.
B.Their family income.
C.The culture they've lived in.
D.The number of their toys.
15.What is Frans's attitude towards the findings?
A.Dismissive.B.Supportive.C.Unclear.
D.Indifferent.

How to Study Math Well in High School
Math can be tricky!Even if you don't feel like it's your strongest subject,you can get better
at math if you're willing to put in the work.The best way to do well in math is to practice every
day,so set aside plenty of time to study on your own or with a group.16 It will benefit you
in every way.
Read your textbook actively.Take your time to make sure you understand what you're
reading.Read each section slowly,making sure you fully understand it before you move on to
the next one.17
Spend a few minutes studying each day.18 In math,everything new you learn builds
on what you already know,so you have to really master each concept before moving on to the
next.If you try to study it all at once,it can get really confusing,so set aside a few minutes
every day to study and do your homework.
19 Write out complete solutions,even for practice and homework.Your teacher will
usually require you to show your work-or write out every step-when you're taking a math
test.Get in the habit of doing that every time you work a problem,even if it's just something
you're doing to practice.
Take practice tests to check your skills.Treat the practice test as if it were real.If you're
anxious about taking an exam,do one or more practice ones in advance.20 Check your work
after taking the practice test,then focus your study on weak areas.
A.Be active in your study group.
B.Show your work on every problem.
C.Don't try to prepare for tests at the last minute.
D.With a little determination,you can make real progress.
E.Try to set up a quiet space,time the test,and don't stop.
F.Any time your teacher is explaining something,follow along carefully.
G.Remember to take note of key points and examples that are mentioned in the book.
