"Curious,she asked her grandmother about it."That is the tradition of our family,"her grandmother explained."Every day,for generations(世代),we complete one act of kindness and take it down.No matter

behaviours.Winston Churchill noted:"We shape our buildings and then our buildings shape us."Buildings and the city environment have been found to influence our general emotion and wellbeing.Architects(建筑师)have often been focused on their imagination and design above how a space may influence its residents(居住者).However,there are a number of architects moving in a new direction,interested in creating people﹣centred building designs.Research carried out by Colin Ellard of the University of Waterloo,Canada,has found that people are often strongly affected by building plex (复杂的)and interesting appearance design influences people much more positively than simple design.Many studies have shown the value of green space and woodland in a city environment and how they can help to reduce the stress that comes with city life.The visual (视觉的)complexity of green spaces plays into Ellard's theory that the human brain prefers complex and lively environment.Another study in Iceland in 2023 found that streets which vary because of their architecture were the most emotionally pleasant.This all leads to the idea that we want variation in our environments.Another research has shown that growing up in an city environment can double a person's chance of developing problems such as worry.It shows that the stress of city life is something that needs to be considered and new spaces should be designed with stress management and wellness in mind.It would be wrong to say style isn't important.We want things which look fantastic as well as work practically,but things can go wrong and influence us negatively if style becomes more important than the building itself.Architects who want to show their skills must consider the purpose of the building.For example,schools should look bright with open spaces,green areas and comfortable corners for reading and learning.No one wants a building to create bad feelings.If we can create spaces which appeal to residents,as well as achieving their purpose,then the end result is much more satisfying and much more likely to stand the test of time.Our cities are set to grow year on year with no end in sight,so we should make sure new development s are built more with people in mind.(1)What do you know about architects from the passage?A.They are running out of creativity.B.Their stress needs to be considered.C.They have to take tests from time to time.D.Their design starts to focus on human feelings.(2)The writer probably agrees that .A.there should be more buildings in green colour in citiesB.visually complex design is more likely to create stressC.it is a must to consider the building itself and its styleD.buildings with simple appearance bring us comfort(3)The words"appeal to"in the last paragraph are closest in meaning to .A.pleaseB.houseC.shapeD.upset(4)What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?A.To criticize architects for their great mistakes.B.To call for the people﹣centred design of buildings.C.To suggest how to make architectures emotionally pleasant.D.To stress the importance of architectures to a city environment.15.A 16﹣year﹣old boy named Li Tao lived in a small town in China.One day,while Li Tao was doing his science homework,he came up with a great idea.He worked out a way to make a new type of power supply(供应)for his town,which had a problem with its electricity supply.To make his idea come true,Li Tao began to experiment at home.He was so confident that nothing could stop him from inventing.He made and took apart many models.Even though he faced lots of challenges and failures,he didn't give up.He fixed his mistakes,changed his plans,and kept working hard.After two years of hard work,he finally succeeded.He made a small device(设备)that could change wind power into electrical power successfully.This was a new,environmentally﹣friendly way for his town's power problem.News about Li Tao's invention quickly spread around his school and town,and everyone really took pride in his achievement.The group of science﹣technology of the town decided to help him improve the invention.He was invited to give a speech to encourage other teenagers to learn more about science and be more creative in the Science and Technology Meeting.His story encourages teenagers that being young is not a barrier(阻碍)to achieve their dreams.Even a common teenager can do something amazing!(1)What was the problem of the town where Li Tao lived?A.Water pollution.B.Experiment device testing.C.Electricity supply.D.Wind power lightning protection.(2)When Li Tao faced challenges and failures,he .A.encouraged other teenagers to join himB.fixed his mistakes and kept working hardC.gave a speech and learnt more about scienceD.asked the group of science﹣technology for help(3)How did people feel after knowing Li Tao's invention?A.Excited.B.Proud.C.Confident.D.Surprised.16.We rely on our memory for sharing stories with friends or learning from our past experiences.Yet evidence shows that our memory isn't as consistent as we'd like to believe.There are countless reasons why tiny mistakes might happen each time we recall past events.And whenever these mistakes happen,they can have long﹣term effects on how we'll recall that memory in the future.Take storytelling for example.When we describe our memories to other people,we might ask ourselves whether it's important to get the facts straight,or whether we only want to make the listener laugh.And we might change the story's details depending on the listener's attitudes.It isn't only the message that changes,but sometimes it's also the memory itself.This is known as the"audience﹣tuning effect",showing us how our memories can change automatically over time,as a product of how,when,and why we access them.In fact,sometimes simply the act of repeating a memory can be exactly what makes it easy to change.This is known as"retrieval﹣enhanced suggestibility".In a typical study of this effect,participants watched a short film,then took a memory test a few days later.But during the days between watching the film and taking the final test,two other things happened.First,half of the participants took a practice memory test.Second,all of the participants were given a description of the film to read,which contained some false details.Participants who took a practice memory test shortly before reading the false information were more likely to reproduce this false information inthe final memory test.Why might this be?One theory is that repeating our memories of past events can temporarily make those memories malleable.In other words,retrieving (找回)a memory might be a bit like taking ice﹣cream out of the freezer and leaving it in direct sunlight for a while.By the time our memory goes back into the freezer,it might have naturally become a little misshapen,especially if someone has influenced it purposely in the meantime.These findings lead us to wonder how much our most treasured memories have changed since the very first time we remembered them.Remembering is an act of storytelling,after all.And our memories are only ever as reliable as the most recent story we told ourselves.(1)The writer takes storytelling for example to prove that .A.it is impossible to change the listener's attitudesB.it is important to describe our memories directlyC.we can make other people laugh to y telling storiesD.we may change our memories according to the listener(2)What do you know about memory from the passage?A.Our memories can change our personalities.B.Our memories can correct mistakes on their own.C.We can take a practice memory test to strengthen our memories.D.We can reproduce the information while repeating our memories.(3)The word"malleable"in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to .A.reasonableB.valuableC.changeableD.controllable17.Clean electricity is the power of the future,but engineers are facing a big challenge.How can we store electricity to be used at times when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining?In some cases,the answer will be batteries;but in other cases,it could come from a variety of different solutions—starting with gravity.Gravity is the most abundant source of power on Earth.It's always been everywhere since the beginning of time.Nobody knew about it until around 1700,when Isaac Newton saw an apple fall from a tree in hisgarden.Newton asked himself the question:"Why did that apple fall to the ground?" And he soon worked out the answer.Everything will fall to the ground if it can do so,because there is a massive force that pulls things towards the centre of the earth.Newton decided to call this force "gravity",a word that then just meant "weight".Engineers have used gravity as a source of power for centuries,long before Newton first explained it.In particular,they used gravity to move water from one place to another to irrigate(灌溉)field s and bring water to cities.They knew that water would flow downhill,but never uphill,so they built structures to use the force of gravity most effectively.In 1907,engineers in Switzerland first used gravity for a new purpose:to store energy.They pumped(用泵抽送)water up a hill,where they stored it in a lake.Then when they needed more electricity,they let the water come back down the hill,driving electric turbines(涡轮机)as it fell.The idea was just so simple,and it is now used in many parts of the world.However,the problem is that "pumped storage" hydro schemes(抽水蓄能水电方案)can't be built just anywhere,as they need lots of water and big hills or mountains.Some experts believe that gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricity.Gravity﹣stored electricity is maybe half the price of battery﹣stored electricity,but even so it is not cheap.In order to make gravity more effective,we would need to increase its force—and that,of course,is quite impossible.Yet gravity is not the only way of storing energy,and engineers are working on systems that store it using water pressure or compressed air...and even sand!Storage is one of the big scientific challenges of our time,as storage is the essential partner of wind power and solar power.We need clean electricity 24 hours a day,not just when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing.(1)The word "abundant" in Paragraph 2 probably means .A.expensiveB.environmentalC.famousD.plentiful(2)From the passage,we can know that .A.gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricityB."pumped storage" hydro schemes can be built on small hillsC.engineers in Switzerland first stored energy by using gravity creativelyD.experts have already made gravity more effective by increasing its force(3)Why does the author write this passage?A.To tell the story of finding gravity.B.To show the importance of gravity.C.To call on people to use clean electricity.D.To introduce a good way to store electricity.四.书面表达(共1小题)18.某英文网站正在开展以"突破自我,我拼过"为主题的征文活动。
