B Frida Kahlo remains one of the most iconic and influential artists of the 20th century-not merely for her paintings,but for the extraordinary life she lived.With her traditional Mexican dresses,and a resolute gaze that meets viewers,she created art that was deeply personal yet universally resonant(产生共鸣的)、My painting contains in it the message of pain,”she once said. Kahlo's childhood was marked by adversity.At six,she was infected with polio,which caused her right leg a slight limp.Yet the young Frida was spirited and unbowed.Her life transformed at 18 when a bus accident left her seriously injured:her:spine was broken in three places,her pelvis crushed,and her right leg shattered in eleven places.She would later remark with characteristic dark humor that the accident"took my virginity ()"During months in bed,her mother placed a mirror above her and gave her paints."I paint myself because I am often alone and because I am the subject I know best,"she explained.Painting became both a lifeline and a means of documenting her reality. Frida Kahlo produced around 200 paintings,most of them self-portraits.Though some called her a Surrealist,Kahlo fiercely rejected the label."I never painted dreams.I painted my own reality,"she insisted.Her work mixed Mexican folk art with raw honesty about her suffering.In The Broken Column(1944),she showed herself with a cracked spine held together by nails.Even her medical corsets()that limited her body became canvases she painted butterflies on them.Andre Breton,the leader of the Surrealist movement,described her work as “a ribbon around a bomb”. Kahlo transformed suffering into art and personal tragedy into universal statements about the human condition.More than six decades after her death,she continues to attract audiences because she remains utterly herself. 高二下英语第3页共 24.What makes Frida Kahlo an influential figure? A.Her personal paintings.B.Her art and life story. C.Her traditional dresses.D.Her pain and struggle. 25.Why did Kahlo reject the Surrealist label? A.Because her art was based on her real life. B:Because she preferred to be called a folk artist. C.Because she claimed to be a painter of dreams. D.Because her work was too universal for the label. 26.What does Andre Breton imply by describing Kahlo's work as"a ribbon around a bomb"in paragraph 3? A.Kahlo's art shows more pain than beauty. B.Kahlo's art turns bombs into ribbons. C.Kahlo's art combines beauty with suffering D.Kahlo's art features ribbons and bombs. 27.Which of the following best describes Kahlo? A.Tough and creative.B.Humorous and easy-going C.Dynamic and generous.D.Optimistic and self-centered. C Curiosity is a familiar feeling among people.Is curiosity a positive feeling or a negative feeling?Is it a painful reminder of what we don't (yet)know,or an exciting signal to what we might soon discover?In fact,curiosity can be all of these things,and more.It has positive and negative faces:one points towards what we want,and one points towards what we have not yet got and may never get. Once we recognize that curiosity has two faces,we can consider what can affect the nature of our experience in a given case.A paper published in the journal Cognition and Emotion does just this for the dimension()of time.The researchers ask:Is the 8页 experience of curiosity more likely to be positive when we expect that our curiosity will be satisfied sooner rather than later? To answer this question,the researchers carried out three studies with a total of over 200 participants from a university or online.In each study,the researchers induced ()a state of curiosity by telling participants that they would later watch a video about "something with different shades of brown".Participants were invited to guess what it might be,but they were not told.Half the participants were told they would watch the video after a short delay()of only one minute,and half were told that there would first be a 30-minute delay during which they would finish other interesting tasks.At the start of the delays,everyone expressed how curious they felt about the content of the video,as well as how much they felt negative feelings, such as discomfort,against positive feelings,such as happiness. The key finding was that while both groups reported equal levels of curiosity,the curiosity was accompanied by more negative feelings for those participants facing a long delay.The researchers argue that the finding sheds light on the two faces of curiosity.When our curiosity will not be satisfied anytime soon,we focus on not knowing,which is annoying.But when our curiosity is on the verge()of being satisfied,we focus on almost knowing,which is a more positive experience. 28.What is the function of the questions in paragraph 1? A.To introduce the topic. B.To show the author's attitude. C.To present supporting evidence. D.To provide background information. 29 What did the research focus on? A.The two sides of curiosity. B.Delay's effect on task performance. 'iriosity differences between people. D.Factors affecting the experience of curiosity. 30.Why did the researchers divide participants into two groups? 高二下英语第4页 A.To collect more research data. B.To test different levels of curiosity. C.To compare effects of different delays.D.To discover different types of curiosity. 31.What did the study find about curiosity? A.The more we focus on not knowing,the more curious we become. B.Longer waiting time makes.people less curious about the unknown. C.The experience of curiosity depends on how soon it will be satisfied. D.Curiosity itself determines whether the experience is positive or negative. D In the field of wearable technology,a breakthrough invention has caught worldwide attention:a.flexible skin-like sensor powered by human sweat,developed by a joint research team from Chinese and American universities.Unlike traditional wearable devices such as smart watches that depend on batteries,this new thin-film sensor operates completely on energy produced by human sweat,marking a significant step toward self-powered wearable electronics. The sensor,as thin as a piece of paper,can be comfortably attached to human skin without any pressure or discomfort.It is embedded with special enzyme materials that generate electricity by reacting with substances in human sweat,such as lactic acid and glucose.The electricity produced is enough to support the device's normal work of monitoring body signals,including heart rate,body temperature and muscle tension. What's more,the sensor can store extra energy for use when sweat is not available, ensuring continuous and stable operation. One of the most important advantages of this sweat-powered device is its environmental friendliness.Traditional wearable electronies rely heavily on lithium batteries,which contain heavy metals and cause serious environmental pollution after being abandoned.In contrast,the new sensor uses harmless biological materials and produces no waste during use.It also avoids the trouble of frequent charging,bringing 共8页 great convenience to users in long-term health monitoring. B.Environmental Protection in Modern Electronic Industry. At present,the sensor has successfully passed laboratory tests and preliminary clinical C.How to Improve Battery Life of Wearable Technology. trials.Researchers have proved that it can work continuously for more than 12 hours on a small D.A Sweat-Powered Sensor:The Future of Wearable Tech. amount of sweat and maintain high accuracy in data collection.Although the current version is 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） still designed for medical monitoring,the team believes the technology can be applied to more 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 fields in the future,such as sports training,virtual reality control and daily health management. 为多余选项。 Industry 'experts believe this sweat-powered technology will.reshape the future of A recent report,published in The Lancet in 2025,found that more than half of the wearable electronics.It solves two main problems of traditional wearables:battery limitation world's population struggles to access healthy diets.This doesn't just impact our health and environmental pollution.With further optimization and mass production,this skin-friendly, and well-being,but also has real consequences on our environment,with around 30%of self-powered sensor is expected to become a mainstream product in the next generation of all the greenhouse gasses we produce coming from our food systems.36 wearable devices,providing safer and more convenient health monitoring solutions for human Enter the planetary health diet(PHD)-a recommendation that can not only improve beings. our health,but also reduce diet-related chronic disease,and potentially reduce the 32.What is the biggest difference between the new sensor and traditional wearable devices? food-related emissions we make by an impressive50%by 2050.37 A.It is thinner and more comfortable to wear.
