Fall is one of the most beautiful times of the year. There are plenty of places around the world when it comes to colourful autumn scenery. Here are 4 for you to explore.
The Cotswolds, England
People who come to England searching for classic countryside scenes usually head to the Cotswolds. The rolling hills, narrow roads and historic villages are attractive. The orange, red and gold leaves add to the scenery (风景) and not surprisingly, the Cotswolds is most famous for its long-distance hiking paths. You can visit the historic university town of Oxford.
Bavaria, Germany
Bavaria often has Oktoberfest (啤酒节) in fall. Smaller towns might have their own Oktoberfest, but you can also see some of Europe’s most beautiful fall colours in Bavaria’s non-urban (非城市的) regions. There are several paths that run through the region’s forests. A couple of these paths pass near Neuschwanstein Castle, a beautiful structure that is the perfect backdrop for the sea of orange and red leaves.
Pitlochry, Scotland
The Scottish Highlands can be the perfect place to see fall leaves. Parts of the place are famous for their treeless landscapes, but the land around Pitlochry is covered by forests. Apart from gazing at the leaves, there are plenty of other activities in Pitlochry. You can see lots of animals. The salmon make their run upriver in the fall as well.
Transylvania, Romania
Tourists who visit Transylvania in fall will see plenty of colourful trees. Like other cities in Eastern Europe, parts of Transylvania’s capital are very urban. The city can serve as a base for exploring the area, but you can also see some picturesque leaves without travelling to the countryside.

Bjarke Ingels, a famous Danish architect born in Copenhagen in 1974, has revolutionized modern architecture with innovative and sustainable designs. His childhood love for drawing and comics (漫画) laid the foundation for his career.
Ingels’ academic and professional experiences further shaped his career. He studied architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen and spent one year as an exchange student in Barcelona, where he gained diverse design perspectives. After graduating, he worked with Rem Koolhaas, a famous Dutch architect, in Rotterdam. This valuable experience helped him gain rich practical skills, and in 2005, he founded his own firm — Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG).
Two core concepts run through Ingels’ works: “Yes is More” and “hedonistic sustainability”. “Yes is More” shows his belief in seeking solutions that meet multiple needs instead of making unnecessary compromises (折中). “Hedonistic sustainability,” on the other hand, means creating buildings that are not only environmentally friendly and socially beneficial but also visually attractive. Different from many architects who stick to a fixed style, Ingels always adjusts his designs according to the specific context of each project and the actual needs of users.
Ingels has created many iconic works around the world. One of his most famous works is CopenHill in Copenhagen, a waste-to-energy plant with a ski slope, hiking track and climbing wall on its roof — a perfect combination of environmental protection and entertainment. Another well-known work is VIA 57 West in New York, a pyramid-shaped residential tower with a green courtyard. Besides, he designed the LEGO House in Billund, Denmark, which looks like giant stacked (堆叠) LEGO bricks. Currently, he is also working on Toyota Woven City in Japan, a futuristic city powered by hydrogen fuel.
Ingels’ achievements have been widely recognized. He has won many honors, including the European Prize for Architecture in 2010 and a place on Time magazine’s list of the 100 Most Influential People in 2016. He has taught at top universities, inspiring young architects and proving buildings can serve climate goals and urban life.

A. His exchange year in Barcelona.

5. What’s Bjarke Ingels’ design philosophy according to his core concepts?

B. He believes function is more important than beauty.
C. He mainly focuses on designing residential buildings.
D. He values environmental protection and visual appeal equally.
6. Which of the following can best describe Ingels?

C. Caring and friendly. D. Energetic and patient.
7. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To promote Ingels’ architectural firm BIG.

Giving has many benefits, but it isn’t always easy. For example, if you suffer from depression (抑郁), you may find it hard to get up in the morning, let alone help others. But new research by Shenzhen and Peking Universities finds there may be a clever way to give. In the study, researchers arranged hundreds of young, depressed adults to either make daily micro-donations for two months or to be on a waiting list. Told that giving small donations helps improve society, participants were invited to donate at least one cent per day for the next two months to any charity.
Before and every week during those two months, all participants filled out questionnaires that were about their possible depression-related aspects: depressed feelings, lack of joy, physical discomforts, sleepiness, and interpersonal problems, as well as how often they felt positive and negative feelings.
After analyzing the results, the researchers found people who donated daily, even as little as one cent a day, felt significantly more positive than people on the waiting list. This, in turn, seemed to explain why they also felt less depressed each week. In other words, making donations, even small ones, helps improve mood (心情). And, though social connection wasn’t necessary for deriving benefit, the study suggests donating could help depressed people who might otherwise refuse to practice kindness toward others, according to Jinting Liu, one of the study’s coauthors.
Liu suggests this could be due to the fact that if you tend to feel depressed, focusing on others for a while gives you a break from thinking about yourself and your shortcomings. It’s also possible that giving makes you feel better about yourself and that prevents the negative self-talk common to depressives.
Interestingly, although people who gave more generously felt a bit happier and less depressed than those who gave less, the difference wasn’t big enough to be significant. This means even people with low means can make use of this simple activity. “Just doing something nice for others is great,” says Liu. “The amount of money isn’t the key part; it’s really about the kindness behind it.”
8. What information did the researchers collect about all participants?
A. Their levels of depressive signs. B. Their willingness to donate.
C. The quality of their social life. D. The frequency of their sleepiness.
9. What does the underlined word “deriving” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Using. B. Reducing. C. Doubting. D. Getting.
10. Why might giving help depressed individuals?
A. It ensures comfortable talks. B. It reduces self-focus time.
C. It encourages physical activity. D. It improves interpersonal relationships.
11. What can be learned according to the study?
A. Giving is difficult to practice. B. Money amount determines results.
C. Tiny kindnesses remain helpful. D. Generosity is the key source of joy.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍深大与北大的研究发现小额日常捐赠能改善抑郁人群的情绪,并阐释其原因和研究的核心结论。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Before and every week during those two months, all participants filled out questionnaires that were about their possible depression-related aspects: depressed feelings, lack of joy, physical discomforts, sleepiness, and interpersonal problems, as well as how often they felt positive and negative feelings.(在这两个月的研究开始前以及期间的每周,所有参与者都需要填写调查问卷,内容涉及他们可能存在的各类抑郁相关表现:抑郁情绪、愉悦感缺失、身体不适、嗜睡、人际关系问题,同时也包含他们产生积极和消极情绪的频率)”可知,研究人员收集的是参与者各类抑郁相关症状的表现程度。故选A项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“In other words, making donations, even small ones, helps improve mood (心情). (换言之,进行捐赠 —— 哪怕是小额捐赠,也有助于改善心情)可知,该研究的合著者刘锦婷表示,尽管获得这种益处并不需要借助社交联系,但研究表明,捐赠行为能够帮助那些原本可能不愿向他人表达善意的抑郁人群,所以,“deriving”含义为“获得”,与D项Getting一致。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Liu suggests this could be due to the fact that if you tend to feel depressed, focusing on others for a while gives you a break from thinking about yourself and your shortcomings.(刘锦婷认为,这可能是因为如果你容易感到抑郁,暂时关注他人能让你从思考自己和自身缺点中抽离出来)”可知,捐赠能帮助抑郁人群的原因是它减少了人们关注自我的时间。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“After analyzing the results, the researchers found people who donated daily, even as little as one cent a day, felt significantly more positive than people on the waiting list. This, in turn, seemed to explain why they also felt less depressed each week.(在分析结果后,研究人员发现,那些每天都进行捐赠,哪怕每天仅捐一美分的人,比在等待名单上的人明显感觉更积极。反过来,这似乎也解释了为什么他们每周的抑郁感也会减轻)”以及最后一段中的“Interestingly, although people who gave more generously felt a bit happier and less depressed than those who gave less, the difference wasn’t big enough to be significant. This means even people with low means can make use of this simple activity. “Just doing something nice for others is great,” says Liu. “The amount of money isn’t the key part; it’s really about the kindness behind it.”(有趣的是,尽管捐赠更为慷慨的人比捐赠较少的人感觉更快乐、抑郁感更轻,但这种差异还不够大,并不显著。这意味着即便经济条件不好的人也能参与这项简单的活动。刘(研究人员之一)表示:“为他人做点好事就很棒。钱的数额并非关键,真正重要的是其背后的善意”)”可知,这项研究表明哪怕是微小的善意举动,对改善抑郁情绪依然是有帮助的。故选C项。
D
It can be fun to hear a catchy tune (曲调) in your head — until that tune begins to play over and over again! Songs that get stuck in our brain are called earworms. An earworm can stay in your head after you listen to the tune play out loud. But it can also occur if something makes you remember the song — like visiting the place where you first heard it.
Scientists have studied earworms for years. They have found that some tunes are more likely to stay in your head than others. For example, earworms are often faster, have an easy-to-remember melody (旋律), and have special changes in pitch (音高).
By examining brain scans, scientists have learned what happens in your head when you have an earworm. When you hear music—or even imagine hearing it—part of the brain called the auditory cortex (听觉皮层) becomes active. This part processes sounds and sends messages to other parts of the brain connected to memory and feelings. Some scientists think your brain can keep sending these signals for a short time, which causes the song to repeat in your mind.
What would cause the human brain to repeat the same song in the first place? Scientists are still not sure. But long ago, before writing was invented, we passed information through songs. So, we may have developed a habit of keeping music in our heads to help remember important information.
Whatever the reason, when a tune gets stuck, it can be really annoying! Luckily, there may be ways to get rid of an earworm. You can listen to another song or do a puzzle to stop yourself from concentrating on it. Or try chewing gum, which affects how your brain remembers music. Even if you do nothing, a stuck song will eventually go away on its own. Now, that must be music to your ears!
12. What is an “earworm” according to the text?
A. A real insect that lives in human ears.
B. A tool scientists use to study memory.
C. A type of brain disease affecting the auditory cortex.
D. A song that repeats uncontrollably in one’s mind.
13. What feature makes a tune more likely become an earworm?
A. It is slow and quiet. B. It is fast with catchy tunes.
C. It has no melody. D. It is very long.
14. According to the text, how can we free ourselves from an earworm?
A. By listening to the same song repeatedly.
B. By keeping away from all kinds of music.
C. By doing activities that take our attention away.
D. By visiting the place where we first heard it.
15. What is your understanding of the last sentence?
A. It’s good news. B. It’s hard to believe.
C. It’s an alarming fact. D. It’s an annoying message.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了耳虫现象、其成因、相关研究及应对方法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“It can be fun to hear a catchy tune (曲调) in your head — until that tune begins to play over and over again! Songs that get stuck in our brain are called earworms.(在脑海中听到一首朗朗上口的曲子是一件很有趣的事情——直到这首曲子开始一遍又一遍地播放!萦绕在我们大脑里的歌曲被称为耳虫)”可知,耳虫指的是一首歌不受控制地在我们的脑海里重复的现象。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“For example, earworms are often faster, have an easy-to-remember melody ( 旋律 ), and have special changes in pitch (音高).(例如,耳虫通常节奏更快、旋律易记,且在音高上有特殊变化)”推知,节奏快、曲调朗朗上口的曲子更容易成为耳虫。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“You can listen to another song or do a puzzle to stop yourself from concentrating on it. Or try chewing gum, which affects how your brain remembers music. Even if you do nothing, a stuck song will eventually go away on its own.(你可以听另一首歌或做一个谜题来阻止自己集中注意力。或者试试嚼口香糖,它会影响大脑对音乐的记忆。即使你什么都不做,一首被卡住的歌最终也会自己消失)”可知,可以通过做转移注意力的事情来摆脱耳虫。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Even if you do nothing, a stuck song will eventually go away on its own. Now, that must be music to your ears!(即使你什么都不做,一首被卡住的歌最终也会自己消失。这下,你肯定觉得如闻仙乐吧!)”可知,即使什么都不做耳虫最终也会消失。由此推知,最后一句话指的是这(耳虫最终会自己消失)是一个好消息。故选A。

【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍豆腐的起源传说、向外传播的历程以及如今在全球范围内的创新食用发展情况。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:相传两千多年前,中国一位名叫刘安的王子在尝试炼制丹药时,意外发现了豆腐。固定搭配attempt to do sth.“尝试做某事”,不定式作宾语。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:他发现放置在特定条件下的豆浆会凝固,形成一种类似布丁的物质,这就是豆腐的开端。此处是非限制性定语从句,先行词是pudding-like substance,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,不能用that引导非限制性定语从句。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意:人们普遍认为,来华的佛教僧人将豆腐带回了日本等周边国家。此处修饰动词believed,universal的副词形式universally“普遍地”符合题意。
【39题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:人们普遍认为,到访中国的佛教僧侣将豆腐带回了日本等邻国。根据后文列举的like Japan可知,邻国不止一个,可数名词country要使用复数形式。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:美国开国元勋之一本杰明·富兰克林在1770年写了一封信,信上附着一些大豆,称它为“中国奶酪”。句子的谓语是wrote,此处call和逻辑主语Benjamin Franklin之间是主动关系,用现在分词作伴随状语。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意:李石曾是一名豆腐爱好者,人们常认为是他让豆腐在亚洲以外地区被广泛接受。enthusiast是可数名词单数,此处表示泛指一名爱好者,且enthusiast是以元音音素开头,用不定冠词an。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:李石曾是一位豆腐爱好者,人们认为他让豆腐在亚洲之外成为了一种被更广泛认可的食物。此处修饰名词food,acknowledge和food之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,用过去分词作定语,acknowledged表示“被认可的”。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:他最终在蒙塔日农业学校求学,并致力于在法国推广豆腐文化。固定搭配 commit oneself to doing sth.“致力于做某事”,to为介词。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:如今,豆腐有着创意十足的吃法。空处修饰名词way,需要形容词作定语,create的形容词形式为creative,意为“有创意的”。
【45题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:在许多高级餐厅里,品鉴菜单是围绕豆腐的口感来设计的。根据上下文语境可知此处用一般现在时,主语the tasting menu和动词design之间是被动关系,主语是单数,所以要用一般现在时的被动语态结构。
第四部分 基础知识考查 (共两节,满分25分)
一、单词拼写 (共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分)
根据首字母或汉语提示,写出单词的正确形式。
46. It is not easy to p________ a stubborn teenager to give up playing video games all night. (根据首字母单词拼写)
【答案】persuade##ersuade
【解析】
【详解】句意:说服一个固执的青少年放弃整晚玩电子游戏并不容易。根据“a stubborn teenager to give up playing video games all night”可推知,此处表达“说服”某人做某事;结合首字母提示和不定式符号to,用动词原形persuade,意为“说服,劝服”。
47. The final exams o________ most of the students’ time and energy in the last few weeks of the term. (根据首字母单词拼写)
【答案】occupied##ccupied
【解析】
【详解】句意:期末考试占用了学生在学期最后几周的大部分时间和精力。根据句意和首字母提示可知,空处应填动词occupy“占用”,由时间状语in the last few weeks of the term可知时态为一般过去时,应用occupied。
48. ________ (煮沸) plenty of salted water, then add the spaghetti. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】Boil
【解析】
【详解】句意:煮沸大量的盐水,然后加入意大利面。根据句子结构可知,本句为祈使句,空处应使用动词原形作谓语;结合汉语提示“煮沸”,应填入动词boil。由于该词位于句首,首字母需要大写。
49. Care will also be taken to ________ (结合) the building and surrounding architecture together to form an effective system. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】combine
【解析】
【详解】句意:同时,还将注意把该建筑与周边建筑结合起来,形成一个有效的系统。此处是不定式,空格处用动词原形,“结合”的动词是combine。
50. His face paled with __________ (怒气) . (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】anger
【解析】
【详解】句意:他的脸因愤怒而变得苍白。根据汉语提示“怒气”可知,应填入名词anger。此处作介词with的宾语,anger为不可数名词。
51. A __________ the car seat so that all the controls are within reach. (根据首字母单词拼写)
【答案】Adjust##djust
【解析】
【详解】句意:调整汽车座椅,使所有控制按钮都处于可触及范围内。由so that all the controls are within reach可知,空格处表达“调整”,由首字母提示A可知,是adjust,此处是祈使句,空格处用动词原形,位于句首,首字母大写。
52. He __________ (目睹) a serious train crash today. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】witnessed
【解析】
【详解】句意:他今天目睹了一场严重的火车相撞事故。根据汉语提示“目睹”可知,应填动词witness作谓语;结合语境可知,目睹事故的动作已经发生,使用一般过去时witnessed。
53. It seems certain there will be new restrictions placed on the use of animals in __________ (科学的) experiments. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】scientific
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:在科学实验中使用动物似乎肯定会有新的限制。根据汉语提示“科学的”及设空后的名词“experiments ”可知,设空处用形容词作定语。所以填scientific。故填scientific。
54. Our trained leaders will _________ (陪伴) you and tell you everything you need to know. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】accompany
【解析】
【详解】句意:我们训练有素的领队会陪伴你,并告诉你所有你需要知道的事情。根据汉语提示“陪伴”可知,应填入动词accompany作谓语。空前有助动词will,故此处应使用动词原形。
55. We have passed all r________ (相关的) information on to the police. (根据中英文提示单词拼写)
【答案】relevant##elevant
【解析】
【详解】句意:我们已将所有相关信息交给了警方。根据中文提示“相关的”和首字母“r”可知,应填入形容词relevant,在句中作前置定语修饰名词information。
二、完成句子(共15个空,每空1分,满分15分)
根据中文提示,用恰当的单词、短语或语法结构填空,注意形式变化
56. I was talking with a friend yesterday who ________ ________ ________ ________ (任职) at a start-up company. (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】 ①. took ②. up ③. a ④. position
【解析】
【详解】句意:昨天我和一位在初创公司任职的朋友交谈。根据汉语提示可知,空处应填“任职”,可用动词短语take up a position表达;先行词为a friend,其后为who引导的定语从句,关系代词who在从句中作主语;根据时间状语yesterday可知,从句陈述的是过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时,谓语动词take应用过去式took。
57. She walked slowly ________ ________ (似乎) she had hurt her leg. (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】 ①. as ②. if##though
【解析】
【详解】句意:她走得很慢,似乎她的腿受伤了。as if/though是固定连词短语,意为“似乎,好像”,引导方式状语从句。
58. ________ ________ in Beijing (一到达北京), he came to visit us. (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】 ①. On##Upon ②. arriving
【解析】
【详解】句意:一到达北京,他就来看望我们。表示“到达”用动词arrive。on/upon doing sth.是固定结构,意为“一……就……”,介词后接动名词arriving,作宾语。
59. 只有努力学习,我们才能取得进步。
Only by studying hard ________ ________ ________ progress.(倒装)
【答案】 ①. can ②. we ③. make
【解析】
【详解】根据英汉意思对比可知,空处应填“我们才能取得(进步)”;由于“only+介词短语by studying hard”置于句首,主句需用部分倒装结构,即将情态动词提到主语之前,构成“情态动词 + 主语 + 动词原形”结构;“我们”翻译为we;“能够”翻译为can,需倒装至主语we之前;“取得进步”翻译为make progress,情态动词can后应用动词原形make。
60. Whenever I encounter difficulties, you always cheer me up and help me out, ________ fuels my enthusiasm for English and promotes me to regain tremendous confidence. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】which
【解析】
【详解】句意:每当我遇到困难时,你总是鼓励我、帮助我,这让我对英语的热情不断增长,并重新找回了巨大的信心。空格处引导非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,主语是整个主句的内容,因此用关系代词which引导定语从句。
61. ________ is known to all, Mark Twain is a master of humour. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】As
【解析】
【详解】句意:众所周知,Mark Twain是一位幽默大师。本空引导非限制性定语从句,指代后面整个主句内容,表示“正如”,用as引导,句首单词首字母大写,as is known to all为固定搭配,表示“众所周知”。
62. She is a knowledgeable and responsible teacher, from ________ we have learned a lot both academically and in life. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】whom
【解析】
【详解】句意:她是一位知识渊博且有责任心的老师,我们从她身上学到了很多知识与人生道理。本句为非限制性定语从句,先行词teacher指人;介词from后面要使用宾格关系代词whom。
63. ________ (replace) loud noise with soft music in waiting rooms can calm people’s anxious feelings. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Replacing
【解析】
【详解】句意:在候诊室里用轻柔的音乐代替嘈杂声可以平复人们焦虑的情绪。句子缺少主语,陈述普遍事实,用动名词replacing,意为“替代”。

【答案】范文
My View on AI Assignment Grading
Our school has fully adopted Artificial Intelligence Assignment Grading, which has sparked heated discussions. Personally, I think this service is helpful but has obvious limitations.
It saves teachers’ grading time and gives students instant feedback, helping us correct mistakes timely. However, AI cannot judge creative answers, such as compositions with unique ideas. It only focuses on standard answers and ignores students’ creative thinking.
Therefore, AI grading can be a useful tool rather than a complete replacement for teachers.
【解析】
【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生写一篇短文表达你对人工智能作业批改服务的综合看法。
【详解】1.词汇积累
激发:spark → initiate
明显的:obvious → apparent
专注于:focus on → concentrate on
工具:tool → instrument
2.句式拓展
合并简单句
原句:However, AI cannot judge creative answers, such as compositions with unique ideas. It only focuses on standard answers and ignores students’ creative thinking.
拓展句:However, AI cannot judge creative answers, such as compositions with unique ideas, which only focus on standard answers and ignore students’ creative thinking.

Fall is one of the most beautiful times of the year. There are plenty of places around the world when it comes to colourful autumn scenery. Here are 4 for you to explore.
The Cotswolds, England
People who come to England searching for classic countryside scenes usually head to the Cotswolds. The rolling hills, narrow roads and historic villages are attractive. The orange, red and gold leaves add to the scenery (风景) and not surprisingly, the Cotswolds is most famous for its long-distance hiking paths. You can visit the historic university town of Oxford.
Bavaria, Germany
Bavaria often has Oktoberfest (啤酒节) in fall. Smaller towns might have their own Oktoberfest, but you can also see some of Europe’s most beautiful fall colours in Bavaria’s non-urban (非城市的) regions. There are several paths that run through the region’s forests. A couple of these paths pass near Neuschwanstein Castle, a beautiful structure that is the perfect backdrop for the sea of orange and red leaves.
Pitlochry, Scotland
The Scottish Highlands can be the perfect place to see fall leaves. Parts of the place are famous for their treeless landscapes, but the land around Pitlochry is covered by forests. Apart from gazing at the leaves, there are plenty of other activities in Pitlochry. You can see lots of animals. The salmon make their run upriver in the fall as well.
Transylvania, Romania
Tourists who visit Transylvania in fall will see plenty of colourful trees. Like other cities in Eastern Europe, parts of Transylvania’s capital are very urban. The city can serve as a base for exploring the area, but you can also see some picturesque leaves without travelling to the countryside.
1. What is Cotswold best-known for?
A. Rolling hills. B. Narrow roads. C. Small villages. D. Hiking paths.
2. Where can you see animals according to the text?

Bjarke Ingels, a famous Danish architect born in Copenhagen in 1974, has revolutionized modern architecture with innovative and sustainable designs. His childhood love for drawing and comics (漫画) laid the foundation for his career.
Ingels’ academic and professional experiences further shaped his career. He studied architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen and spent one year as an exchange student in Barcelona, where he gained diverse design perspectives. After graduating, he worked with Rem Koolhaas, a famous Dutch architect, in Rotterdam. This valuable experience helped him gain rich practical skills, and in 2005, he founded his own firm — Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG).
Two core concepts run through Ingels’ works: “Yes is More” and “hedonistic sustainability”. “Yes is More” shows his belief in seeking solutions that meet multiple needs instead of making unnecessary compromises (折中). “Hedonistic sustainability,” on the other hand, means creating buildings that are not only environmentally friendly and socially beneficial but also visually attractive. Different from many architects who stick to a fixed style, Ingels always adjusts his designs according to the specific context of each project and the actual needs of users.
Ingels has created many iconic works around the world. One of his most famous works is CopenHill in Copenhagen, a waste-to-energy plant with a ski slope, hiking track and climbing wall on its roof — a perfect combination of environmental protection and entertainment. Another well-known work is VIA 57 West in New York, a pyramid-shaped residential tower with a green courtyard. Besides, he designed the LEGO House in Billund, Denmark, which looks like giant stacked (堆叠) LEGO bricks. Currently, he is also working on Toyota Woven City in Japan, a futuristic city powered by hydrogen fuel.
Ingels’ achievements have been widely recognized. He has won many honors, including the European Prize for Architecture in 2010 and a place on Time magazine’s list of the 100 Most Influential People in 2016. He has taught at top universities, inspiring young architects and proving buildings can serve climate goals and urban life.
4. What primarily inspired Bjarke Ingels to pursue a career in architecture?
A. His exchange year in Barcelona.
B. His work with architect Rem Koolhaas.
C. His childhood interest in drawing and comics.
D. His study at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts.
5. What’s Bjarke Ingels’ design philosophy according to his core concepts?
A. He prefers following a fixed architectural style.
B. He believes function is more important than beauty.
C. He mainly focuses on designing residential buildings.
D. He values environmental protection and visual appeal equally.
6. Which of the following can best describe Ingels?
A. Brave and honest. B. Innovative and responsible.
C. Caring and friendly. D. Energetic and patient.
7. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To promote Ingels’ architectural firm BIG.
B. To show Ingels’ influence on modern society.
C. To compare Ingels with other famous architects.

Giving has many benefits, but it isn’t always easy. For example, if you suffer from depression (抑郁), you may find it hard to get up in the morning, let alone help others. But new research by Shenzhen and Peking Universities finds there may be a clever way to give. In the study, researchers arranged hundreds of young, depressed adults to either make daily micro-donations for two months or to be on a waiting list. Told that giving small donations helps improve society, participants were invited to donate at least one cent per day for the next two months to any charity.
Before and every week during those two months, all participants filled out questionnaires that were about their possible depression-related aspects: depressed feelings, lack of joy, physical discomforts, sleepiness, and interpersonal problems, as well as how often they felt positive and negative feelings.
After analyzing the results, the researchers found people who donated daily, even as little as one cent a day, felt significantly more positive than people on the waiting list. This, in turn, seemed to explain why they also felt less depressed each week. In other words, making donations, even small ones, helps improve mood (心情). And, though social connection wasn’t necessary for deriving benefit, the study suggests donating could help depressed people who might otherwise refuse to practice kindness toward others, according to Jinting Liu, one of the study’s coauthors.
Liu suggests this could be due to the fact that if you tend to feel depressed, focusing on others for a while gives you a break from thinking about yourself and your shortcomings. It’s also possible that giving makes you feel better about yourself and that prevents the negative self-talk common to depressives.
Interestingly, although people who gave more generously felt a bit happier and less depressed than those who gave less, the difference wasn’t big enough to be significant. This means even people with low means can make use of this simple activity. “Just doing something nice for others is great,” says Liu. “The amount of money isn’t the key part; it’s really about the kindness behind it.”
8. What information did the researchers collect about all participants?
A. Their levels of depressive signs. B. Their willingness to donate.
C. The quality of their social life. D. The frequency of their sleepiness.
9. What does the underlined word “deriving” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Using. B. Reducing. C. Doubting. D. Getting.
10. Why might giving help depressed individuals?
A. It ensures comfortable talks. B. It reduces self-focus time.
C. It encourages physical activity. D. It improves interpersonal relationships.
11. What can be learned according to the study?
A. Giving is difficult to practice. B. Money amount determines results.
C. Tiny kindnesses remain helpful. D. Generosity is the key source of joy.

It can be fun to hear a catchy tune (曲调) in your head — until that tune begins to play over and over again! Songs that get stuck in our brain are called earworms. An earworm can stay in your head after you listen to the tune play out loud. But it can also occur if something makes you remember the song — like visiting the place where you first heard it.
Scientists have studied earworms for years. They have found that some tunes are more likely to stay in your head than others. For example, earworms are often faster, have an easy-to-remember melody (旋律), and have special changes in pitch (音高).
By examining brain scans, scientists have learned what happens in your head when you have an earworm. When you hear music—or even imagine hearing it—part of the brain called the auditory cortex (听觉皮层) becomes active. This part processes sounds and sends messages to other parts of the brain connected to memory and feelings. Some scientists think your brain can keep sending these signals for a short time, which causes the song to repeat in your mind.
What would cause the human brain to repeat the same song in the first place? Scientists are still not sure. But long ago, before writing was invented, we passed information through songs. So, we may have developed a habit of keeping music in our heads to help remember important information.
Whatever the reason, when a tune gets stuck, it can be really annoying! Luckily, there may be ways to get rid of an earworm. You can listen to another song or do a puzzle to stop yourself from concentrating on it. Or try chewing gum, which affects how your brain remembers music. Even if you do nothing, a stuck song will eventually go away on its own. Now, that must be music to your ears!
12. What is an “earworm” according to the text?
A. A real insect that lives in human ears.
B. A tool scientists use to study memory.
C. A type of brain disease affecting the auditory cortex.
D. A song that repeats uncontrollably in one’s mind.
13. What feature makes a tune more likely become an earworm?
A. It is slow and quiet. B. It is fast with catchy tunes.
C. It has no melody. D. It is very long.
14. According to the text, how can we free ourselves from an earworm?
A. By listening to the same song repeatedly.
B. By keeping away from all kinds of music.
C. By doing activities that take our attention away.
D. By visiting the place where we first heard it.
15. What is your understanding of the last sentence?
A. It’s good news. B. It’s hard to believe.
C. It’s an alarming fact. D. It’s an annoying message.
