It shows how ordinary cardboard can be transformed into monumental works, reminding viewers that art lies not only in finished pieces but also in shared creation. Opening Hours - Weekdays (Mon-Fri): 9:00-17:30, last entry at 17:00 - Weekends: 8:30-18:00, last entry at 17:20 - Special Session: Family Creation Session, 14:00-16:00 every Saturday Note: The exhibition closes early at 12:00 on October 20, the final day. Exhibition Content Displayed are photos, sketches and scaled-down models of giant cardboard structures designed by French artist Olivier Grossetête.

B During my girlhood, I used to accompany my father to various public events and community discussions. Whatever the occasion, my father always had something to say. He would ask a thoughtful question or make a sharp comment. As a result, I assumed that he knew something about everything. How could this be? He was certainly an educated man. He was born in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, a neighborhood that was, at the time, simply poor. When a friend applied to a New York high school, he followed suit and was admitted. He went on to earn an undergraduate degree and then, after serving in World War II, earned a Ph.D. in chemistry. It’s an impressive path, but his education had been focused on the sciences; how was it that he knew so much about other things-Stickley furniture and the Battle of Waterloo, for example? I recently put the question to him. He explained that, as a teenager, he had made a promise to himself to ask a question in any gathering he attended. The exercise had sharpened his ability to listen, speak, and engage with whatever was happening. But his initial motivation, as my father readily admits, was simply to participate in the conversation. He came from a poor background and, though very intelligent, lacked the polish of the more privileged people with whom he came into contact. Asking a question was his way of finding his voice, often in settings where he felt uneasy, and also a way of fitting in. In speaking up, he received acknowledgement, which led to greater confidence, which led to greater participation, and in the end, to greater knowledge. Ever since my father’s method caught my attention, I have urged my shyer students to follow his example. I tell them to try to speak at least once during a class, if only to ask a question. Doing so helps them acquire a profile in class and involve themselves more deeply. In time, they will contribute to the conversation. And eventually, they may be able to amaze their children with their wide-ranging knowledge. 24. Why does the author mention her father’s educational path? A. To highlight his academic achievements. B. To explain why he was interested in science. C. To contrast his science education with his broad knowledge. D. To suggest how science contributed to his view on social issues. 25. What’s the father’s initial purpose of asking questions at gatherings? A. To make himself heard. B. To follow his friend’s example. C. To improve his communicative skills. D. To impress others with his intelligence. 26. What does the author expect her students to get from the method? A. A wider range of interests. B. Deeper engagement in learning. C. Greater confidence in public speaking. D. More recognition from their classmates. 27. What message does the author convey through the text? A. One simple habit fuels lasting growth. B. Success relies on seizing every chance. C. A good teacher learns from students as well. D. Childhood experiences decide future careers. C Georgia’s barrier islands feel almost untouched, with dense forests and wide salt marshes (沼泽地) stretching as far as the eye can see. To most visitors, they look perfectly natural. Yet a recent study suggests that these ecosystems are actually the product of thousands of years of human activity. The islands’ earliest inhabitants, ancestors of today’s Muskogee Creek Nation, lived off the sea and ate large quantities of oysters (牡蛎), leaving the shells behind. Over time, the shells piled into huge deposits. What began as simple food waste gradually became part of the landscape itself. How big a difference could discarded shells really make? To find out, researchers from Pennsylvania State University and the University of Georgia surveyed four barrier islands. They dug pits at regular intervals and measured the thickness of the shell deposits. The results were striking. Evidence of past human habitation, such as broken pottery and stone tools, was found across nearly two-thirds of the islands’ land. In one section of Sapelo Island alone, researchers estimated that about 1.6 billion oyster shells had accumulated. “Human action is interwoven into the landscape,” said Victor Thompson, one of the researchers. The team then examined whether the shells helped protect the islands from the sea. By comparing elevation data with water-level measurements, they found that without the extra height provided by the shells, large areas of coastline would be regularly covered by water during high tides, with storm surges causing even more severe flooding. The shells benefited the islands in another way as well. Rich in calcium carbonate, they enriched the soil and encouraged certain plants to grow. Centuries later, plantation owners deliberately settled on the same sites, recognizing the value of the fertile, shell-enriched earth. These findings may challenge the traditional idea of conservation, which often means keeping human influence out of nature. The study suggests that a landscape’s “natural” state is not necessarily the state before humans arrived. Inspired by this idea, Shell to Shore, a nonprofit organization, now collects oyster shells from restaurants and returns them to the coast to strengthen areas at risk of storm surges. Rather than simply keeping people and nature apart, it may be wiser to find ways for the two to work together. 28. What do we know about the shell deposits on the barrier islands? A. They covered most of the islands.　　 B. They formed the earliest human settlements. C. They resulted from sea level rise.　　 D. They came from the earliest inhabitants’ meals. 29. What does the underlined phrase “interwoven into the landscape” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Slowly destroying the landscape.　　 B. Deeply connected with the landscape. C. Passively adapting to the landscape.　　 D. Clearly separated from the landscape. 30. Why does the author mention Shell to Shore in the last paragraph? A. To promote the seafood business.　　 B. To encourage people to collect shells. C. To illustrate human-nature cooperation.　　D. To prove humans shouldn’t disturb nature. 31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Oyster Shells Reveal a Lost Civilization　　 B. Ancient Wisdom Reveals Cooperation’s Power C. Rising Seas Threatened Georgia’s Barrier Islands　　 D. Ancient “Trash” Shaped Georgia’s Barrier Islands D In some cities, pigeons (鸽子) are unappreciated. They search for thrown particles of food and stare blankly at passersby. It’s led some people to falsely believe that pigeons aren’t very intelligent or worthy of the space they take up. But it’s time to change our thinking. Humans domesticated (驯化) pigeons thousands of years ago, and part of the reason why they gather around humans is that they’ve lost much of their survival instinct (本能). Beyond even that, they’re highly intelligent creatures that don’t get nearly the credit they deserve. A study published in 2015 noted that the visual systems used by pigeons have a lot in common with those of humans. The researchers decided to put that visual recognition to the test in a high-risk situation. Pigeons were trained with food reinforcement to recognize the difference between images of malignant and benign (恶性与良性) human tissue samples. Once they were up to speed, they proved to be incredibly accurate at identifying the cancerous images. What’s especially fascinating is that the researchers were able to demonstrate real learning and pattern recognition by the birds. They were able to generalize their learnings, meaning they weren’t just memorizing the correct answers to the images they trained on. Once trained, they still kept the accuracy when looking at novel images they’d never seen before. The study found that the average trained pigeon was about 85% effective in identifying cancerous images. However, when pigeons were grouped together four at a time — called “flock sourcing” — their accuracy rose to a staggering 99%. “The birds’ successes and difficulties suggest that pigeons are well-suited to help us better understand human medical image perception,” the researchers concluded, “and may also prove useful in performance assessment and development of medical imaging hardware, image processing, and image analysis tools.” 32. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 1? A. To show pigeons’ city behaviors. B. To explain why pigeons are clever. C. To introduce a myth about pigeons. D. To state pigeons have lost their instincts. 33. What does the 2015 study reveal about pigeons’ visuality? A. They can recognize cancerous tissue samples. B. They have better eyesight than humans do. C. They see farther than other bird species. D. They can identify images faster through food rewards. 34. What does the flock sourcing data suggest about pigeons? A. Individual pigeons are incapable. B. Four pigeons are the best work group. C. Pigeons’ ability remains to be unknown. D. Collective work improves their performance. 35. What is the researchers’ attitude to using pigeons in medicine? A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Indifferent. D. Critical. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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，选项中有两项为多余选项。 In order to survive in the world with challenges, we need to be wise. 36 Let me tell you this, wisdom provides us with perspective when we need it and it calms us down in terrible situations. Here are some strategies that we can use to get wiser. 37 This will open up new pathways for us. Never base your perspective on the most popular opinion or which is the most comfortable for you. Train your mind to be a judgment-free space for ideas. If you are humble, then you will always get to experience something new. You must be the kind of person who learns something new every day. Take new classes, read books and the list goes on and on. 38 All of these activities will help you to tackle problems from different angles, making everything easier. You obviously want to grow and do better in life, right? The best way is to have wise people as your mentors (导师), like teachers, colleagues and even special friends. Prior to making them a mentor, find out what makes them wiser, then engage in useful dialogue with them. 39 If you have accumulated a lot of knowledge, then why not share it with others too? 40 In today’s world, it is very easy to become wise but it isn’t easy to help others. So keep things balanced and never let go of your passions and values. This will pave the path to success. A. Why do we communicate with wise people? B. Why is wisdom crucial in this modern world? C. Change your routine and see where life takes you. D. Surf the Internet and clear out your problems that confuse you. E. Sometimes we ourselves need to be open to diverse perspectives. F.

Located at the end of a quiet street, the shop smelled strongly of old paper, leather, and sticky glue. Grandpa was a traditional craftsman who repaired old books by hand. In an age of smartphones and e-books, Leo couldn’t understand why Grandpa still spent hours fixing torn paper. He would rather sit on the sofa, playing video games on his phone. “Nobody reads paper books anymore, Grandpa. It’s the digital age,” Leo often complained, staring at his bright screen. Grandpa would just smile quietly and continue his work. One cold Friday afternoon, a neighbor, Mrs. Green, who lived just across the street, walked into the shop. She was holding a very old, broken storybook. The cover was almost falling off, and the yellowed pages were coming loose. “This was my favorite book when I was a child,” she said, her voice shaking with emotion. “My grandmother used to read it to me every night. I want to give it to my granddaughter for her birthday tomorrow. Can you fix it, Matteo?” Grandpa looked at his hands. His eyesight had gotten much worse over the past year, and his fingers were stiff and shaking. He tried hard to pick up a thin needle, but it slipped from his fingers and fell onto the floor with a tiny sound. He sighed deeply. “I’m afraid I can’t finish it in time,” Grandpa said in a low voice, looking very sad and defeated. Mrs. Green’s face clouded with disappointment, and she turned to leave. At that moment, Leo stepped forward. He looked at his grandfather’s sad eyes and the broken book, and then he put his phone on the table. “Wait, Mrs. Green,” Leo said softly. “We will fix it for you.” 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Grandpa was surprised to hear Leo’s words. ___________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next morning, Leo and Grandpa walked across the street to Mrs. Green’s house. ___________________________________________________________________________ 英语科试卷 共 10页 第 10 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 东北育才高中2026—2027学年度上学期 高二年级英语科期中考试参考答案 听力 （每小题1.5分， 满分30分） 1-5： BCBCB 6-10: BCAAB 11-15: BAABC 16-20: ABACB 阅读理解（每小题2.5分，共50分） 21--23) CCD 24---27) CABA 28---31) DBCD 32---35) CADB 36---40) BEDFG 完形填空 （每小题1分，共15分） 41---45: ADBCB 46---50: BCADB 51---55: ADACD 语法填空（每小题1.5分，共15分） 56. into 57. is run 58. assistance 59. boosting 60. where 61. monthly 62. centered 63. to be polished 64. an 65. and 应用文参考答案: Dear Tom, I am writing to express my sincere apologies for the incorrect English translation of the sign "Caution: Wet Floor" in our reading room.

I have already reported it to the school, and a new correct sign will be put up tomorrow. We will also check all the other signs to avoid similar errors. Thank you for pointing it out. Yours, Li Hua 读后续写参考答案： Grandpa was surprised to hear Leo's words. He looked up, eyes wide. "But you hate this shop," he said. Leo smiled and put a hand on Grandpa's shoulder. "I was wrong," he said softly. "I can hold the book and pass the tools for you." Grandpa's eyes became wet. He nodded and handed Leo a roll of thread. Sitting together, Leo watched Grandpa work carefully. Though Leo only held the pages steady, he felt very peaceful. The boring shop now seemed full of warmth. The next morning, Leo and Grandpa walked across the street to Mrs. Green's house. Leo handed the repaired book to the old lady. She turned the pages gently, and happy tears ran down her cheeks. "It's just like new," she whispered, holding it close to her heart. Her little granddaughter ran over, hugging her and pointing at the pictures. Seeing this, Leo felt a warm feeling spreading inside. He understood that repairing books isn't just about paper; it is a bridge that carries love and memories from one generation to the next. 听力： 1. 【原文】M: Would you like to go to arts and crafts museum this Saturday, Jessica?

These exciting trips give you the chance to enjoy a really unusual view of the countryside. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. There’s no upper age limit and everyone is welcome. However, all passengers must be fit. This is because you will have to climb in and out of the basket under the balloon. You must remember to wear boots. That’s because you have to walk in fields that are wet and dirty at the end of the trip. The direction the flight takes depends on the wind. The pilot will choose a suitable landing place which may be between five and thirty kilometers from the airfield we start from. But don’t worry, because transport is provided.

B During my girlhood,I used to accompany my father to various public events and community discussions.Whatever the occasion,my father always had something to say.He would ask a thoughtful question or make a sharp comment.As a result,I assumed that he knew something about everything. How could this be?He was certainly an educated man.He was born in Williamsburg,Brooklyn,a neighborhood that was,at the time,simply poor.When a friend applied to a New York high school,he followed suit and was admitted.He went on to earn an undergraduate degree and then,after serving in World War II,earned a Ph.D.in chemistry.It's an impressive path,but his education had been focused on the sciences;how was it that he knew so much about other things-Stickley furniture and the Battle of Waterloo,for example? I recently put the question to him.He explained that,as a teenager,he had made a promise to himself to ask a question in any gathering he attended.The exercise had sharpened his ability to listen,speak, and engage with whatever was happening.But his initial motivation,as my father readily admits,was simply to participate in the conversation.He came from a poor background and,though very intelligent, lacked the polish of the more privileged people with whom he came into contact.Asking a question was his way of finding his voice,often in settings where he felt uneasy,and also a way of fitting in.In speaking up,he received acknowledgement,which led to greater confidence,which led to greater participation, and in the end,to greater knowledge. Ever since my father's method caught my attention,I have urged my shyer students to follow his example.I tell them to try to speak at least once during a class,if only to ask a question.Doing so helps them acquire a profile in class and involve themselves more deeply.In time,they will contribute to the conversation.And eventually,they may be able to amaze their children with their wide-ranging knowledge. 24.Why does the author mention her father's educational path? A.To highlight his academic achievements. B.To explain why he was interested in science. C.To contrast his science education with his broad knowledge. D.To suggest how science contributed to his view on social issues. 25.What's the father's initial purpose of asking questions at gatherings? A.To make himself heard. B.To follow his friend's example. C.To improve his communicative skills. D.To impress others with his intelligence. 26.What does the author expect her students to get from the method? A.A wider range of interests. B.Deeper engagement in learning. C.Greater confidence in public speaking D.More recognition from their classmates. 英语科试卷共10页第4页 27.What message does the author convey through the text? A.One simple habit fuels lasting growth. B.Success relies on seizing every chance. C.A good teacher learns from students as well. D.Childhood experiences decide future careers. ⊙ Georgia's barrier islands feel almost untouched,with dense forests and wide salt marshes ( stretching as far as the eye can see.To most visitors,they look perfectly natural.Yet a recent study suggests that these ecosystems are actually the product of thousands of years of human activity.The islands'earliest inhabitants,ancestors of today's Muskogee Creek Nation,lived off the sea and ate large quantities of oysters ()leaving the shells behind.Over time,the shells piled into huge deposits. What began as simple food waste gradually became part of the landscape itself. How big a difference could discarded shells really make?To find out,researchers from Pennsylvania State University and the University of Georgia surveyed four barrier islands.They dug pits at regular intervals and measured the thickness of the shell deposits.The results were striking.Evidence of past human habitation,such as broken pottery and stone tools,was found across nearly two-thirds of the islands'land.In one section of Sapelo Island alone,researchers estimated that about 1.6 billion oyster shells had accumulated."Human action is interwoven into the landscape,"said Victor Thompson,one of the researchers. The team then examined whether the shells helped protect the islands from the sea.By comparing elevation data with water-level measurements,they found that without the extra height provided by the shells,large areas of coastline would be regularly covered by water during high tides,with storm surges causing even more severe flooding.The shells benefited the islands in another way as well.Rich in calcium carbonate,they enriched the soil and encouraged certain plants to grow.Centuries later, plantation owners deliberately settled on the same sites,recognizing the value of the fertile,shell- enriched earth. These findings may challenge the traditional idea of conservation,which often means keeping human influence out of nature.The study suggests that a landscape's"natural"state is not necessarily the state before humans arrived.Inspired by this idea,Shell to Shore,a nonprofit organization,now collects oyster shells from restaurants and returns them to the coast to strengthen areas at risk of storm surges. Rather than simply keeping people and nature apart,it may be wiser to find ways for the two to work together. 28.What do we know about the shell deposits on the barrier islands? A.They covered most of the islands. B.They formed the earliest human settlements C.They resulted from sea level rise. D.They came from the earliest inhabitants'meals. 29.What does the underlined phrase"interwoven into the landscape"in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Slowly destroying the landscape. B.Deeply connected with the landscape. C.Passively adapting to the landscape. D.Clearly separated from the landscape. 30.Why does the author mention Shell to Shore in the last paragraph? 英语科试卷共10页第5页 A.To promote the seafood business. B.To encourage people to collect shells. C.To illustrate human-nature cooperation. D.To prove humans shouldn't disturb nature. 31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A.Oyster Shells Reveal a Lost Civilization B.Ancient Wisdom Reveals Cooperation's Power C.Rising Seas Threatened Georgia's Barrier Islands D.Ancient"Trash"Shaped Georgia's Barrier Islands D In some cities,pigeons (are unappreciated.They search for thrown particles of food and stare blankly at passersby.It's led some people to falsely believe that pigeons aren't very intelligent or worthy of the space they take up. But it's time to change our thinking.Humans domesticated (pigeons thousands of years ago, and part of the reason why they gather around humans is that they've lost much of their survival instinct ()Beyond even that,they're highly intelligent creatures that don't get nearly the credit they deserve. A study published in 2015 noted that the visual systems used by pigeons have a lot in common with those of humans.The researchers decided to put that visual recognition to the test in a high-risk situation. Pigeons were trained with food reinforcement to recognize the difference between images of malignant and benign(恶性与良性)human tissue samples..Once they were up to speed,they proved to be incredibly accurate at identifying the cancerous images. What's especially fascinating is that the researchers were able to demonstrate real learning and pattern recognition by the birds.They were able to generalize their learnings,meaning they weren't just memorizing the correct answers to the images they trained on.Once trained,they still kept the accuracy when looking at novel images they'd never seen before. The study found that the average trained pigeon was about 85%effective in identifying cancerous images.However,when pigeons were grouped together four at a time-called"flock sourcing"-their accuracy rose to a staggering 999. "The birds'successes and difficulties suggest that pigeons are well-suited to help us better understand human medical image perception,"the researchers concluded,"and may also prove useful in performance assessment and development of medical imaging hardware,image processing,and image analy sis tools..” 32.What is the author's purpose in writing paragraph 1? A.To show pigeons'city behaviors. B.To explain why pigeons are clever. C.To introduce a myth about pigeons. D.To state pigeons have lost their instincts 33.What does the 2015 study reveal about pigeons'visuality? A.They can recognize cancerous tissue samples. B.They have better eyesight than humans do. C.They see farther than other bird species. D.They can identify images faster through food rewards. 英语科试卷共10页第6页 34.What does the flock sourcing data suggest about pigeons? A.Individual pigeons are incapable. B.Four pigeons are the best work group. C.Pigeons'ability remains to be unknown.D.Collective work improves their performance. 35.What is the researchers'attitude to using pigeons in medicine? A.Doubtful. B.Positive. C.Indifferent. D.Critical. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 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，选项中有两项为多余选项。 In order to survive in the world with challenges,we need to be wise.36 Let me tell you this, wisdom provides us with perspective when we need it and it calms us down in terrible situations.Here are some strategies that we can use to get wiser. 37 This will open up new pathways for us.Never base your perspective on the most popular opinion or which is the most comfortable for you.Train your mind to be a judgment-free space for ideas.

Located at the end of a quiet street,the shop smelled strongly of old paper,leather,and sticky glue. Grandpa was a traditional craftsman who repaired old books by hand. In an age of smartphones and e-books,Leo couldn't understand why Grandpa still spent hours fixing torn paper.He would rather sit on the sofa,playing video games on his phone."Nobody reads paper books anymore,Grandpa.It's the digital age,"Leo often complained,staring at his bright screen.Grandpa would just smile quietly and continue his work. One cold Friday aftemoon,a neighbor,Mrs.Green,who lived just across the street,walked into the shop.She was holding a very old,broken storybook.The cover was almost falling off,and the yellowed pages were coming loose."This was my favorite book when I was a child,"she said,her voice shaking with emotion."My grandmother used to read it to me every night.I want to give it to my granddaughter for her birthday tomorrow.Can you fix it,Matteo?" 英语科试卷共10页第9页 Grandpa looked at his hands.His eyesight had gotten much worse over the past year,and his fingers were stiff and shaking.He tried hard to pick up a thin needle,but it slipped from his fingers and fell onto the floor with a tiny sound.He sighed deeply."I'm afraid I can't finish it in time,"Grandpa said in a low voice,looking very sad and defeated. Mrs.Green's face clouded with disappointment,and she turned to leave.At that moment,Leo stepped forward.He looked at his grandfather's sad eyes and the broken book,and then he put his phone on the table.“Wait,irs.Green,.”Leo said softly.“We will fix it for you.” 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Grandpa was surprised to hear Leo's words.
