It is home to an underground refrigeration structure called yakchat and an underground irrigation system called qanats. In addition, the city has the wind catcher, a cooling architectural element that has been used for thousands of years. And it has the most wind catchers in the world.These remarkable towers are a common sight standing above the buildings of Yazd. There are two main forces that drive the air through and down into the structures: the incoming wind and the change in buoyancy （浮力）of air. First, as air is caught by the opening of a wind catcher, it is led down to the house below. Then the air flows throughout the inside of the building, sometimes over underground pools of water for further cooling. Eventually, warmed air will rise and leave the building through another tower or opening.Some of the earliest wind-catching technology came from Egypt 3,300 years ago. Here, buildings had thick walls, few windows facing the sun, an opening to take in air and an exit opening on the other side known as malqaf architecture. Iran's wind-catching technology is widely considered to have added structural improvements to allow for better cooling-such as typically combining it with its existing irrigation system to help to cool the air down before releasing it throughout the home.The structures, which require no electricity to power them, are now drawing scientists back to the desert city to see what role they could play in keeping us cool in a rapidly heating world. Parham Kheirkhah Sangdeh has extensively studied the scientific application and surrounding culture of wind catchers in contemporary architecture at Ham University in Iran. He hopes to see Iran's wind catchers updated to add energy-efficient cooling to existing buildings. "People need to keep an eye on the past and understand why energy conservation is important/5 he says.24 .Which of the following makes the city of Yazd unusual?A.Its long history.B.Its extreme climates.C.Its ancient innovative wonders.D.Its central geographical position.25 .Where is the opening of a wind catcher?A.Near a house's door.B.Above the rooftop.C.Beside the underground pools.D.Beneath a house's windows.26 .How does Iran's wind catcher differ from Egypt's malqaf ?A. It is surrounded by thicker walls.B It has no windows facing the sun.C. It requires no electricity to power it.D. It takes advantage of water's properties.27 .What is Parham Kheirkhah Sangdeh working on?A. Introducing wind catchers into today's buildings.B - Studying the earliest wind catchers in Egypt.C. Repairing traditional wind catchers in Yazd.D. Creating energy conservation labs at Ham University.CDear boss 一 You have always tried to attract young consumers, and our consultants have always come up with new ways to label them. The trouble is that coming up with rules to define a group of humanity is more art than science. It is likely to become an exercise in applying stereotypes; not every youngster is drinking kombucha in a Brooklyn storehouse. Luckily you have me, and I'm here to tell you that much of what is written about marketing to today's most prized consumers is a myth.Start with the idea that, glued to smartphones, youngsters barely notice the physical world and passively follow the latest hit from Instagram or TikTok. It's true that the days of marketing chiefly through television, newspapers and magazines are long gone. However, social media has not just changed the ways people discover brands; it has weakened the power of marketing as a whole. Online, talk is cheap and prices are readily Googled. Digital natives, therefore, can easily fact-check our suspicious marketing claims and ads. Surveys suggest that young Americans are among the most price-sensitive food shoppers, even though they have accumulated less wealth than earlier generations had by the same age.There is a similar urge to think that physical shops no longer matter. Young consumers love their Amazon deliveries. It makes sense for our company to make sales via social media and ship directly to customers' homes. But what works best is the close integration of the digital and physical worlds. Remember those online-only beauty brands like Glossier, which took the world by storm during the pandemic. It turns out that they struggle to get repeat business and have had to pair up with physical shops. What really matters is avoiding insincerity. Dishonesty is easily exposed online, where everyone loves a takedown. Remember the strong resistance to Boohoo, a fast-fashion firm, when it appointed Kourtney Kardashian, a celebrity leading a luxurious life, as a "sustainability ambassador”？ And commit only to causes you can tangibly support and be frank when you are putting profits first. Anyway, nobody is perfect. To pretend otherwise is so 2013. 28.Why is there trouble with finding rules to define a group of people?A. Because fixed ideas may be inappropriately employed.B Because not everybody is into drinking tea at a storehouse.C. Because art is more challenging to learn than science.D. Because the consultants are not as expert as the author.29.What is the purpose of mentioning the surveys about young Americans in Paragraph 2?A. To reveal their incompetence in saving money.B To illustrate they are sensitive to the prices of food online.C. To demonstrate marketing has a great impact on their spending habits.D. To prove they are not passive receivers of online marketing tricks. 3O.Which of the following statements may the author agree with?A. Celebrities work as reliable ambassadors.B Young customers don't visit physical shops.C. Dishonesty in marketing was not rare in 2013.D. Traditional media still play a major role in marketing. 31.What is a suitable title for the text?A. How to Expand Youth Market: From Ideas to PracticeB . How to Sell to the Young: From Myth to TruthC. How to Attract Young Customers: Honesty and ProfitsD. How to Increase Sales Online: Labeling and MarketingDIn a new study, Iowa Psychologist Ed Wasserman gave the pigeons complex categorization tests that high-level thinking would not aid in solving. Instead, the pigeons, by trial and error, eventually were able to memorize enough situations in the test. This basic process of making associations - considered a lower-level thinking technique is the same between the test-taking pigeons and the latest AI advances.The researchers sought to figure out two types of learning: one declarative learning, is based on exercising reason according to a set of rules or strategies - a so-called higher level of learning owned mostly by people. The other, associative learning, centers on recognizing and making connections between objects or patterns, such as “sky-blue" and "water-wet. ”Wasserman? s team designed a difficult test to find out whether the pigeons use declarative or associative learning. Each test pigeon was shown a stimulus （刺激）and had to decide, by pecking （啄）a button on the right or on the left, to which category that stimulus belonged. What made the test so demanding was that no rules or logic would help finish the task. They have to memorize the individual stimuli or regions from where the stimuli occur. Over hundreds of tests, the four test pigeons eventually upped their score from 50% to an average of 68% right.“The pigeons are like AI masters Wasserman says. "Both of them employ associative learning, and yet that base-level thinking is what allowed the pigeons to ultimately score successfully. If people were to take the same test, they'd score poorly and would probably give up because they rely so heavily on rules or strategies. Those rules would get in the way of learning. The pigeon doesn't have that high-level thinking process. But it doesn't get in the way of their learning. In fact, in some ways it facilitates it.u People are stunned by AI doing amazing things using a learning algorithm （算法）much like the pigeon,Wasserman says, “yet when people talk about associative learning in humans and animals, it is discounted as inflexible and uncomplicated. ”32.Which of the following is a typical example of associative learning ?A. Tom refuses to put hands on hot stoves after burns.B. Dolphins detect obstacles using sound waves.C. Chimpanzees use physical gesture strategies.D. Emily figures out math problems with logic.33 .How did the pigeons improve their performance in the test?A. By pecking the stimuli.B. By finding rule or logic.C. By competing with each other.D. By making numerous attempts.34 .What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. AI and man use the same learning pattern.B Associative learning is underestimated.C. People think highly of declarative learning.D. Pigeons finish tasks with AI algorithms.35 .Which can be a suitable title of the text?A. Pigeon's Peck Can Mirror High TechB AI Contributes to a New Learning PatternC. AI Can Enrich Human Learning ExperienceD. Pigeon's Learning Largely Extends High Tech 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。We' ve seen photographs that seem to show unbelievable images, thanks to photo editing software.
