Here’s where you can get the best performances and cultural experiences offered for every taste in the nation’s capital. Kennedy Center Kennedy Center hosts hundreds of world-class performances each year and is home to the National Symphony Orchestra and the Washington National Opera. The Suzanne Farrell Ballet also counts Kennedy Center as its performance headquarters. The company—under the direction of Farrell—was first invited to perform there in 1993 and has since become one of the venue’s most famous attractions. Woolly Mammoth Company Woolly Mammoth Company is an experimental theatre that welcomes original plays that push the boundaries of live theatre. The New York Times has called it “Washington’s most daring theatre company”, and the half dozen plays Woolly produces each year continue to live up to that reputation. Shakespeare Theatre Company For more than 25 years, Shakespeare Theatre Company has committed itself to serving as the nation’s classical theatre. It operates out of two spaces, including Sidney Harman Hall at the Harman Center, which seats 775, and the Lansburgh Theatre, which seats 451. The shiny, glass-walled Harman Center showcases classic Shakespeare plays, modern updates and Shakespeare-inspired original shows. Wolf Trap For locals, summer isn’t complete without at least one trip to Wolf Trap, the only national park dedicated to the performing arts. The venue is best-known for performances of touring artists. The open-air theatre offers covered seating, but when the weather warms up, we suggest buying seats on the grassland and packing a picnic. 31. When did the Suzanne Farrell Ballet first perform at Kennedy Center? A. In 1993. B. In 1998. C. In 2000. D. In 2003. 32. Which of the following is known for experimental plays? A. The Harman Center.

Its selected directors. D. Its open-air atmosphere. B At a large forest park in eastern Beijing, 11 birds on the state-level protection list were recently released. These birds had recovered after the Beijing Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center rescued and took care of them. “We will speed up our efforts to push the establishment of district-level wildlife rescue centers to jointly guard the health of wildlife,” said Du Lianhai, director of the center. The center was set up in 2001 and built a wildlife rescue base in the capital’s Shunyi District in 2005. Staff at the base have rescued and rehabilitated over 30,000 wild animals in total. Wildlife protection has been strengthened in Beijing in recent years. On June 1st, the city’s newly adopted regulation on wildlife protection took effect, introducing stricter and more concrete measures to protect the environment and wildlife. For example, the regulation states clearly that Beijing bans hunting throughout the year, compared with the previous regulation which bans hunting during the periods of March to May and September to November each year. The new regulation also gives severer punishment for poachers. After years of monitoring, data with the Beijing Gardening and Greening Bureau recently showed ecological reconstruction progress. The species and quantity of wild animals in Beijing are continuously increasing, with the number of terrestrial spinal wild animals (陆地脊椎野生动物) growing from 461 species in 1994 to more than 500. The habitat of the endangered bird has expanded from Fangshan District to the whole city, according to the bureau. “The enforcement of the new regulation marked a new phase in Beijing’s wildlife protection work,” said Dai Mingchao, deputy director of the Beijing Gardening and Greening Bureau. “We will step up the publicity of the regulation and raise citizens’ awareness of wildlife protection,” Dai said. “In our integrated protection of mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes and grasslands, we take into full consideration the requirements of food-chain construction, ecological corridor construction, and wildlife and their habitat protection.” 34. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ______. A. introduce the topic B. present an argument C. reach a conclusion D. describe a place 35. What have the staff at the wildlife rescue base done? A. They have sped up their efforts to help the birds recover. B. They have guarded people’s health against danger. C. They have saved wild animals from a dangerous situation. D. They have pushed the establishment of district-level wildlife rescue centers. 36. What does the underlined word “concrete” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Practical. B. Temporary. C. Effective. D. Specific. 37. What can we learn from Paragraphs 7 and 8? A. Beijing citizens are still not familiar with the new regulation. B. After taking the new regulation, Beijing will enter a new phase. C. They rarely give full consideration to the requirements of food-chain construction. D. The protection of mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes and grasslands are not in the new regulation yet. C Every morning at 6 a.m., Markus Hofimueller’s hands are already covered in flour as he mixes dough (生面团) for the bakery’s daily specials. The 22-year-old baker never imagined he would take over the management of a bakery from his fellow German friends. Bach’s Bakery, located in Changsha, is popular among the locals for hiring bakers with hearing disabilities. What truly makes Markus special is his unusual approach to training. Last summer, he reached out to the local vocational school to invite deaf students to join his team. Every Tuesday afternoon, four students sit behind the counter while Markus teaches them how to shape croissants(羊角面包) and decorate cakes with sign language. “Working side by side with these young learners reminds me why I became a baker,” he smiles. “I’m happiest when I see them grow in the job, ” he says. “They accumulate more skills and knowledge and keep improving, which I value the most. ” When asked about his future plans, Markus pauses thoughtfully. “I can’t predict if baking will be my lifelong career, but right now I know this is where I’m meant to be.” His eyes light up as he describes watching customers smile over their first bite of perfectly timed creme brulée (焦糖布丁). “There’s something magical about turning simple ingredients into moments of joy,” he explains. This idea shapes everything he does. “My heart tells me baking isn’t just a job — it’s a responsibility to create happiness.” He hopes one day to open his own training center where experienced bakers can teach newcomers, not just the hearing-impaired, adding he wants to continue training more carefully and professionally. From uncertain beginnings to purposeful creation, he trusts that following his passion has led him to the right place. He also wants to work with vocational schools so his employees can learn bakery skills with other students. “No matter what I do, I feel a strong sense of destiny (使命感). I trust my heart,” he says. 38. Why is Markus’s bakery so popular among locals in Changsha? A. He is a German. B. He sells daily specials. C. He hires hearing-disabled bakers. D. He sticks to making cake by hand. 39. What makes Markus’ training approaches stand out? A. Concentrating on teamwork. B. Stressing skills and knowledge. C. Focusing on profit-driven skills. D. Combining sign language teaching. 40. How does the idea influence Markus’s life? A. It makes him destiny-focused. B. It forces him to be passion-driven. C. It drives him to shoulder social responsibility. D. It turns his baking style to artistic expression. 41. Which one can best describe Markus? A. Hardworking and selfish. B. Careful but stubborn. C. Grateful and patient. D. Warm-hearted and determined. D My mother, Elara, was a woman of few words but deep actions. She worked in the map room of the National Archives, a quiet place filled with the smell of old paper and ink. Growing up, I thought maps were fixed facts: a river always blue, a mountain forever brown. In my teenage world, everything was digital and instant — a phone voice told me where to turn in seconds. My mother’s skill of drawing by hand seemed beautiful but a waste of time, a fight against the efficiency I valued above all. The gap between us grew during those years. I saw her bent shoulders over a piece of special drawing paper not as love for her work, but as simply giving in to the past. I dreamed of building the digital platforms that would make her skills completely unnecessary. I believed progress meant throwing away the old, and in my teenage pride, I let her know it. My view began to change not through a sudden moment of understanding, but through small breakdowns. Once, a software update mistakenly moved a simple address three states away on my screen. Another time, a satellite system placed me, with total certainty, on the wrong side of a river. I started to notice what my mother’s maps kept that my computer programs did not: the feel of a landscape, the local names of forgotten paths, the small signs on the ground that guide a walker when the battery dies. Her maps didn’t just show locations; they told stories. One evening, I asked to see her latest project. It was a special map of the valley where she grew up, made for a hundred-year celebration. As her ink-stained finger traced the line of a stream, she said, “This is where we caught little fish. And here, this slight dip, is where the wild strawberries grew sweetest.” The map came alive with her memories, a richly detailed record of a life that no flying camera could capture. I realized her work was not about refusing the future; it was about offering a necessary different choice — a record not just of space, but of lived experience and feeling. The lifeless precision I valued could never match her art, which was a geography of belonging. 42. The phrase “giving in to the past” (Paragraph 2) suggests the author thought her mother ________. A. studied old ways of making maps carefully B. kept rare objects that she loved firmly C. stuck to things that were no longer useful D. considered learning new skills a waste of time 43. What brought about the change in the author’s opinion? A. The impact of a software upgrade going wrong. B. The uncertainty of human-machine communication. C. Unnecessary sudden changes to the operating platform. D. The unexpected failures of her own trusted digital technology. 44. Why does the writer talk about “the small signs on the ground” (Paragraph 3)? A. To show the maps include practical details unseen by flying cameras. B. To prove the maps are based on official survey data from government records. C. To explain the maps mainly focus on famous scenic spots. D. To tell readers the maps are designed for professional hikers and explorers. 45. What key viewpoint does the author intend to convey in the passage? A. Digital mapping tools won’t eventually replace all traditional skills. B. The true worth of a craft may lie not in its efficiency but in its human touch. C. Professional success requires abandoning new methods for old ones. D. People prefer the personal experiences of cartographers to map symbols. 第二卷  非选择题 (共25分)  注意事项： 1. 请用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上 2. 本卷共6小题，满分25分 第四部分：写作 (共两节，满分25分)  第一节  阅读表达 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)  阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 In the 1950s, when I was young, I lived in Houston, Texas. As I grew up, the city grew up. To me, the most exciting changes were that one big building after another went up. I think that’s what made me want to be an architect, and I wanted to take part in building one. In high school, I took a class called drafting(绘图). There I learned how to use many different tools to draw plans for building things. I was the only girl in the class, and others laughed at me. But I knew what I wanted to do, so I didn’t mind the jokes. When I was 16, I found my first summer job with an engineering company. I worked in the drafting room with 60 men on one of the biggest engineering projects of our century—the Trans-Alaska Pipeline(管道). That pipeline now carries oil south across Alaska, from oil wells near the Arctic Ocean down to the Pacific. That summer I learned a lot about how a huge structure is designed and what it’s like to work in a team. One of my bosses from that summer said he knew that was the secret of my success. The engineers liked my work so much that they asked me to come back. I worked there for the next five summers. During those years, I studied architecture at the University of Texas. I discovered that the best way to learn about architecture is to look at the world around me. To remember what I saw, I always carried a notebook with me so I could make quick drawings. After I graduated from college, I made my dream come true. 46. What made the author want to be an architect?

Hold your head up C. You never know D. I’m sorry for you 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查情景交际。句意：——我的数学考试又没考好。——别垂头丧气的，你实际上正在取得进步。A. What a pity真遗憾；B. Hold your head up抬起头来，别垂头丧气的；C. You never know很难说；D. I’m sorry for you我为你感到遗憾。根据“You’re actually making progress”可知，此处是在鼓励对方，B选项“Hold your head up”符合语境。故选B项。 2. When walking down the street, I came across David, who I _____ for years. A. didn’t see B. haven’t seen C. hadn’t seen D. wouldn’t see 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查动词时态。句意：当沿着街道散步的时候，我遇见了多年未见的David。根据语境，“not see”这个动作发生在come across之前，是过去的过去发生的动作，用过去完成时。故选C。 【名师点睛】英语中的时态主要由动词的形式决定，因此在学习英语时态时，要注意分析动词形式及具体语境，想象在那个特定的时间动作所发生的背景，这个动作是经常性动作、一般性动作、进行性动作、完成性动作还是将要发生的动作。过去完成时是一个相对的时态，表示过去的过去的动作，还有一个特点就是和过去的一段时间搭配。 3. Over the past five years, more than one book about space exploration ______ in China. A. were published B. was published C. have been published D. has been published 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：在过去五年里，中国出版了多部关于太空探索的书籍。空格处是谓语动词，句子的主语more than one book与动词publish之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态；根据时间状语Over the past five years可知，句子应该用现在完成时；“more than one + 可数名词单数”结构中，尽管表达“不止一个”的含义，但语法上视为单数主语，谓语动词需用第三人称单数形式。故选D项。 4. If I go to New York on Friday, I can________. I can go to the doctor and visit my mother the same day. A. kill two birds with one stone B. throw the baby out with the bathwater C. hold my horses D. have butterflies in my stomach 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查英语习语。句意：如果我周五去纽约，我就能一举两得。我可以在同一天看医生和看望我妈妈。A. kill two birds with one stone一举两得；B. throw the baby out with the bathwater不分良莠一起抛弃；C. hold my horses耐心点，别着急；D. have butterflies in my stomach紧张不安。结合“I can go to the doctor and visit my mother the same day.”可知，“同一天完成看医生和看望妈妈” 是一件事达成两个目的，符合 “一举两得” 的语义。故选A。 5. He communicate his ideas to the group so that everyone could understand and support his vision. A. was likely to B. was frightened to C. was eager to D. was curious to 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词短语辨析。句意：他渴望将自己的想法传达给团队，以便每个人都能理解和支持他的愿景。A. was likely to可能；B. was frightened to害怕；C. was eager to渴望； D. was curious to 好奇。由句意和so that everyone could understand and support his vision可知，这里表示他“渴望”将自己的想法传达出。故选C项。 6. She promised she ________ me with my English project the next day, but she didn’t come at all. A. helps B. would help C. had helped D. helped 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：她答应第二天会帮我做英语项目，但她根本没来。主句谓语动词promised是一般过去时，根据从句中的时间状语the next day可知，从句表示的是从过去某一时刻来看将要发生的动作，应用过去将来时，其结构为“would+动词原形”。 7. As we know, no matter how ________ a man is, if he doesn’t learn, he will know nothing. A. enthusiastic B. intelligent C. unique D. confident 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：正如我们所知，无论一个人多么聪明，如果他不学习，他将一无所知。A. enthusiastic热情的，热心的；B. intelligent聪明的；C. unique独一无二的；D. confident自信的。根据后文“if he doesn’t learn, he will know nothing”可知此处指无论一个人多么聪明，如果他不学习，他将一无所知。 8. I shall never forget the days ________ we spent together and the moment ________ we shared joys and sorrows. A. when; when B. which; which C. which; when D. when; which 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：我永远不会忘记我们一起度过的那些日子，以及我们同甘共苦的那个时刻。第一空引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the days，关系词在从句中作动词spent的宾语，故应用关系代词which或that；第二空引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the moment，从句主谓宾结构完整，关系词在从句中作时间状语，故应用关系副词when。 9. Happiness and success often come to those ________ strengths are clearly recognised and fully developed.

These birds had recovered after the Beijing Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center rescued and took care of them. “We will speed up our efforts to push the establishment of district-level wildlife rescue centers to jointly guard the health of wildlife,” said Du Lianhai, director of the center. The center was set up in 2001 and built a wildlife rescue base in the capital’s Shunyi District in 2005. Staff at the base have rescued and rehabilitated over 30,000 wild animals in total. Wildlife protection has been strengthened in Beijing in recent years. On June 1st, the city’s newly adopted regulation on wildlife protection took effect, introducing stricter and more concrete measures to protect the environment and wildlife. For example, the regulation states clearly that Beijing bans hunting throughout the year, compared with the previous regulation which bans hunting during the periods of March to May and September to November each year. The new regulation also gives severer punishment for poachers. After years of monitoring, data with the Beijing Gardening and Greening Bureau recently showed ecological reconstruction progress. The species and quantity of wild animals in Beijing are continuously increasing, with the number of terrestrial spinal wild animals (陆地脊椎野生动物) growing from 461 species in 1994 to more than 500. The habitat of the endangered bird has expanded from Fangshan District to the whole city, according to the bureau. “The enforcement of the new regulation marked a new phase in Beijing’s wildlife protection work,” said Dai Mingchao, deputy director of the Beijing Gardening and Greening Bureau. “We will step up the publicity of the regulation and raise citizens’ awareness of wildlife protection,” Dai said. “In our integrated protection of mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes and grasslands, we take into full consideration the requirements of food-chain construction, ecological corridor construction, and wildlife and their habitat protection.” 34. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ______. A. introduce the topic B. present an argument C. reach a conclusion D. describe a place 35. What have the staff at the wildlife rescue base done? A. They have sped up their efforts to help the birds recover. B. They have guarded people’s health against danger. C. They have saved wild animals from a dangerous situation. D. They have pushed the establishment of district-level wildlife rescue centers. 36. What does the underlined word “concrete” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Practical. B. Temporary. C. Effective. D. Specific. 37. What can we learn from Paragraphs 7 and 8? A. Beijing citizens are still not familiar with the new regulation. B. After taking the new regulation, Beijing will enter a new phase. C. They rarely give full consideration to the requirements of food-chain construction. D. The protection of mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes and grasslands are not in the new regulation yet. 【答案】34. A 35. C 36. D 37.

The 22-year-old baker never imagined he would take over the management of a bakery from his fellow German friends. Bach’s Bakery, located in Changsha, is popular among the locals for hiring bakers with hearing disabilities. What truly makes Markus special is his unusual approach to training. Last summer, he reached out to the local vocational school to invite deaf students to join his team. Every Tuesday afternoon, four students sit behind the counter while Markus teaches them how to shape croissants(羊角面包) and decorate cakes with sign language. “Working side by side with these young learners reminds me why I became a baker,” he smiles. “I’m happiest when I see them grow in the job, ” he says. “They accumulate more skills and knowledge and keep improving, which I value the most. ” When asked about his future plans, Markus pauses thoughtfully. “I can’t predict if baking will be my lifelong career, but right now I know this is where I’m meant to be.” His eyes light up as he describes watching customers smile over their first bite of perfectly timed creme brulée (焦糖布丁). “There’s something magical about turning simple ingredients into moments of joy,” he explains. This idea shapes everything he does. “My heart tells me baking isn’t just a job — it’s a responsibility to create happiness.” He hopes one day to open his own training center where experienced bakers can teach newcomers, not just the hearing-impaired, adding he wants to continue training more carefully and professionally. From uncertain beginnings to purposeful creation, he trusts that following his passion has led him to the right place. He also wants to work with vocational schools so his employees can learn bakery skills with other students. “No matter what I do, I feel a strong sense of destiny (使命感). I trust my heart,” he says. 38. Why is Markus’s bakery so popular among locals in Changsha? A. He is a German. B. He sells daily specials. C. He hires hearing-disabled bakers. D.

She worked in the map room of the National Archives, a quiet place filled with the smell of old paper and ink. Growing up, I thought maps were fixed facts: a river always blue, a mountain forever brown. In my teenage world, everything was digital and instant — a phone voice told me where to turn in seconds. My mother’s skill of drawing by hand seemed beautiful but a waste of time, a fight against the efficiency I valued above all. The gap between us grew during those years. I saw her bent shoulders over a piece of special drawing paper not as love for her work, but as simply giving in to the past. I dreamed of building the digital platforms that would make her skills completely unnecessary. I believed progress meant throwing away the old, and in my teenage pride, I let her know it. My view began to change not through a sudden moment of understanding, but through small breakdowns. Once, a software update mistakenly moved a simple address three states away on my screen. Another time, a satellite system placed me, with total certainty, on the wrong side of a river. I started to notice what my mother’s maps kept that my computer programs did not: the feel of a landscape, the local names of forgotten paths, the small signs on the ground that guide a walker when the battery dies. Her maps didn’t just show locations; they told stories. One evening, I asked to see her latest project. It was a special map of the valley where she grew up, made for a hundred-year celebration. As her ink-stained finger traced the line of a stream, she said, “This is where we caught little fish. And here, this slight dip, is where the wild strawberries grew sweetest.” The map came alive with her memories, a richly detailed record of a life that no flying camera could capture. I realized her work was not about refusing the future; it was about offering a necessary different choice — a record not just of space, but of lived experience and feeling. The lifeless precision I valued could never match her art, which was a geography of belonging. 42. The phrase “giving in to the past” (Paragraph 2) suggests the author thought her mother ________. A. studied old ways of making maps carefully B. kept rare objects that she loved firmly C. stuck to things that were no longer useful D. considered learning new skills a waste of time 43. What brought about the change in the author’s opinion? A. The impact of a software upgrade going wrong. B. The uncertainty of human-machine communication. C. Unnecessary sudden changes to the operating platform. D. The unexpected failures of her own trusted digital technology. 44. Why does the writer talk about “the small signs on the ground” (Paragraph 3)? A. To show the maps include practical details unseen by flying cameras. B. To prove the maps are based on official survey data from government records. C. To explain the maps mainly focus on famous scenic spots. D. To tell readers the maps are designed for professional hikers and explorers. 45. What key viewpoint does the author intend to convey in the passage? A. Digital mapping tools won’t eventually replace all traditional skills. B. The true worth of a craft may lie not in its efficiency but in its human touch. C. Professional success requires abandoning new methods for old ones. D. People prefer the personal experiences of cartographers to map symbols. 【答案】42. C 43. D 44. A 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述作者年少推崇高效的数字技术、轻视母亲手工绘制地图的传统技艺，在多次遭遇数字工具失灵后幡然醒悟，认识到传统手艺蕴含科技无法替代的人文温度与生活价值。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The gap between us grew during those years. I saw her bent shoulders over a piece of special drawing paper not as love for her work, but as simply giving in to the past. I dreamed of building the digital platforms that would make her skills completely unnecessary. I believed progress meant throwing away the old.(那些年里，我们之间的距离逐渐拉大。我看到她弯着肩膀，俯身趴在一张特殊的绘图纸上方绘制，并不把这看作是她对工作的热爱，而认为仅仅是因为giving in to the past。我曾立志打造数字平台，让她的手艺彻底无用，我认为进步就是摒弃旧事物)”可知，giving in to the past表明作者当时认为母亲坚守的手绘地图是过时、无用的旧事物。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“My view began to change not through a sudden moment of understanding, but through small breakdowns. Once, a software update mistakenly moved a simple address three states away on my screen. Another time, a satellite system placed me, with total certainty, on the wrong side of a river.(我的观念并非突然领悟，而是源于一次次小故障。有一次，软件更新错误地将我屏幕上的一个简单地址移动了三个州。还有一次，一个卫星系统把我完全确定地放在了河的错误一边)”可知，作者一直信赖的数字技术频繁意外失灵，改变了她的看法。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“I started to notice what my mother’s maps kept that my computer programs did not: the feel of a landscape, the local names of forgotten paths, the small signs on the ground that guide a walker when the battery dies.(我发现母亲的地图拥有电脑程序没有的东西：地貌质感、被遗忘小路的本地名称、电量耗尽时能指引行人的地面细微标识)”以及文末“no flying camera could capture(航拍相机无法捕捉)”可知，作者提及地面细微标识，是为了体现手绘地图包含航拍和数字技术无法覆盖的实用细节。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，作者从推崇数字效率，到最终领悟：母亲的手绘地图不止标注位置，更承载记忆、体验与人文温度。根据最后一段“The lifeless precision I valued could never match her art, which was a geography of belonging.(我所看重的毫无温度的精准，永远比不上这份饱含归属感的手艺)”可知，作者通过文章传达了：一门手艺的真正价值，不在于效率，而在于独有的人文温度。 第二卷  非选择题 (共25分)  注意事项： 1. 请用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上 2. 本卷共6小题，满分25分 第四部分：写作 (共两节，满分25分)  第一节  阅读表达 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)  阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 In the 1950s, when I was young, I lived in Houston, Texas. As I grew up, the city grew up. To me, the most exciting changes were that one big building after another went up. I think that’s what made me want to be an architect, and I wanted to take part in building one. In high school, I took a class called drafting(绘图). There I learned how to use many different tools to draw plans for building things. I was the only girl in the class, and others laughed at me. But I knew what I wanted to do, so I didn’t mind the jokes. When I was 16, I found my first summer job with an engineering company. I worked in the drafting room with 60 men on one of the biggest engineering projects of our century—the Trans-Alaska Pipeline(管道). That pipeline now carries oil south across Alaska, from oil wells near the Arctic Ocean down to the Pacific. That summer I learned a lot about how a huge structure is designed and what it’s like to work in a team. One of my bosses from that summer said he knew that was the secret of my success. The engineers liked my work so much that they asked me to come back. I worked there for the next five summers. During those years, I studied architecture at the University of Texas. I discovered that the best way to learn about architecture is to look at the world around me. To remember what I saw, I always carried a notebook with me so I could make quick drawings. After I graduated from college, I made my dream come true. 46. What made the author want to be an architect?
