No matter how they achieve it, these novel libraries are keeping the magic of reading alive.Beach Library(Albena, Bulgaria)Reading a book on the beach is a classic, and in Bulgaria, one library encourages tourists to do just that. The white, weather-resistant shelves lined up not far from the surf feature 6,000 books in 15 languages, so every visitor can find the perfect beach read to enjoy while soaking up the suns rays.Bishan Library(Singapore)Built in 2006, this library with skylights and trellises(格架), standing out for its modern art, is meant to resemble a modern glass tree-house. Glass pods of varying colors stick out of the building randomly to create cozy yet air y corner for reading throughout the building. Childrens room on the basement level invites interaction while preventing noise from disturbing those concentrating in the loft y seats above.The Camel Library Service (North Eastern Province, Kenya)To fight low literacy rates in the desert of Kenya, the government created a travelling library composed of nine camels bringing books to villages. The library travels four days a week serving the regions nomadic(游牧的)people. Currently the service focuses on children, but with more funding they plan to increase their reach both in distance and the titles they carry.Macquarie University Library(Sydney, Australia)A stunning combination of being both cutting-edge and sustainable, this building with a green roof, was made from recycled materials and designed to look like an eucalyptus tree(桉树).

Macquarie University Library.BIn 1999, Giuliana Furci, founder and founding director of the Fungi(真菌)Foundation, developed a deep interest in fungi. They were everywhere, and the 20-year-old took particular joy in the variety of mushrooms: small and button-shaped; tall and umbrella-like; round with red caps topped with white flakes. Some were commonly found in peoples diets, for they were rich in nutrients such as vitamin, fiber, minerals and protein.But Furci also quickly realized that these fungi went largely ignored in Chile, where there were few guidebooks and an almost total lack of policies and resources to protect them from over-harvesting and other human activities. Determined to correct this, Furci wrote a field guide and set up the Fungi Foundationa nonprofit dedicated to fungi conservation. In her guide, special attention went to the role of fungi in the ecosystem.“Life on the planet wouldnt exist without fungi,” said Greg Mueller, a mushroom conservation expert. “Because of their relationship with forests and trees, we cant survive without fungi. In terms of the health of the planet, theyre incredibly important to humans and the overall ecosystem.” Fungi can break down plants and animals, thus cycling nutrients and increasing their availability in the soil. They are also important contributors to the soil carbon stock through the same process. Whats more, fungi have been found to help degrade(降解)various pollutants, such as plastic. And mycelium(菌丝体), which is the root structure of mushrooms, is now being used to replace unsustainable materials, such as plastic and animal-based products.Because of these, exploration of fungi was expanded at a faster pace. However, some were already listed as critically endangered. In 2010, Furci took an even bigger stepwith other environmental nonprofits, she put forward a proposal for the government to systematically assess how large new developments such as housing, dams, and highways affect fungi. In 2012, a law was passed and Chile became the first country in the world to protect fungi by law.24. What can we learn about Furci from the first two paragraphs?A. She enjoyed collecting mushrooms.B. She was fond of cooking mushrooms.C. She worried about the situation of fungi.D. She had a habit of writing field guidebooks.25. What is Paragraph 3 of the text mainly about?A. The life on earth without fungi. B. The importance of fungi on earth.C. The relations between trees and fungi. D. The practical uses of fungi in the future.26. How did Furci protect the ecosystem?A. By writing free instructions on plants.B. By starting a non-profit ecotourism company.C. By raising awareness of the importance of fungi.D. By passing laws to ban over-harvesting mushrooms.27. Which of the following best describes Furcis work?A. Ground-breaking. B. Debatable. C. Romantic. D. Unmatched.C“Im dying of boredom!”complained Yelena, who performed in Chekhovs 1897 play UncleVanya. “I dont know what to do!” Of course, if Yelena were around today, shed pull out her smartphone to find something amusing, like Tik Tok. Its easy to kill the time. However, is boredom entirely good for nothing? What if it is a meaningful experienceone that leads us to states of deeper thoughtfulness or creativity?Thats the conclusion of two fascinating recent studies. In one, researchers asked a group of subjects to do something boring, like copying out numbers from a phone book, and then take tests of creative thinking, such as designing uses for a pair of cups. As a result, bored subjects came up with more ideas than a non-bored control group, and their ideas were often more creative. In the second study, subjects who took an “associative thought” word test came up with more answers when theyd been required to watch a dull screensaver(屏保).Boredom might bring creativity because a restless mind hungers for stimulation. “Boredom becomes a seeking state. What youre doing now is not satisfying. So youre seeking and get engaged.” says Sandi Mann, a psychologist at the University of Central Lancashire. Kierkegaard, a philosopher, described jokingly, “The gods were bored; therefore they created human beings.” However, what worries Mann is that these days we dont enjoy these slow moments. Instead, we resist them. “We try to beat every moment of boredom in our lives with mobile devices,” says Mann, who claims she often gets some of her best thinking done when shes on the bus. “The smartphone might relieve us temporarily, but it shuts down the deeper thinking that can come from staring down the boredom. Noodling on your phone is like eating junk food.” she says.So heres an idea: instead of always fleeing boredom, lean into it. Sometimes, shutting down your Internet connection for a while will enforce a higher level of productivity.28. Why did Yelena make a complaint?A. She was dying soon. B. She forgot her smartphone.C. She hated her role in the play. D. She was feeling too bored.29. According to the study, who is more likely to be creative?A. Someone waiting at a bus stop. B. Someone lost in phone games.C. Someone busy with the work. D. Someone reading a novel.30. Why does psychologist Mann feel worried?A. Because people get used to slow moments.B. Because people attempt to get rid of boredom.C. Because people become addicted to junk food.D. Because people are dependent on mobile devices.31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Every State Counts B. Watch Out for BoredomC. Gateway to Creativity D. All Creativity Comes from BoredomDHow do we come to make sense of our daily lives? How can we gain a strong grasp of who we really are and how we fit in the world? And how can we naturally connect to important ones in our lives? “Life stories are one of the prime tools we have for understanding ourselves and the world around us.” says Robyn Fivush, a professor at Emory University.Humans are natural storytellers. We use stories to understand our present, draw insights from our past, and anticipate the future. Thus, storytelling is basic to our lives. As a form of rich engagement between family members, family storytelling should be valued more. Sharing bedtime stories and talks after school, or walking through an event that left a young child cryingthese are all opportunities for parents and children to become closer through warmth, understanding and support. Fivush and her colleagues have underscored the value of storytelling in parenting. The ways parents support childrens emotions and help them retell more vivid, richly detailed stories have lasting impacts on childrens cognitive(认知的)and emotional development.Children and teenagers learn how to talk about their lives from family stories. An early example is learning how to present a detailed story with a beginning, a middle, and an endto give it a clear structure. Further, they learn what is appropriate to talk about or avoid and what feelings are appropriate to share over dinner or out with others.When growing up, we use our life stories to build complex and stable views of ourselves. Through stories about the traditions maintained over the years, we make connections between past successes and failures, our relationships, and the activities that hold meaning to us to develop our new identities. These identities reflect our roles as family members, community members, co-workers and so on, thus helping us have a more complete view of ourselves.Having a lasting impact on ourselves and those around us, life stories are filled with meaning, insight, and value. By the way, whats the story that stands out to you from a recent meal or chat?32. Why does the writer ask three questions in the beginning?A. To explain a general idea. B. To give background information.C. To introduce an argument. D. To report the finding of a study.33. What does the underlined word “underscored” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Cast doubt on. B. Attached importance to.C. Shown concern for. D. Thought poorly of.34. How can life stories help form a complete view of ourselves according to the writer?A. By maintaining social ties. B. By rebuilding our identities.C. By connecting our past and future. D. By learning from family members.35. Where is the text most probably taken from?A. A review on a storybook. B. An advice letter for social life.C. A guidebook to parenting. D. An essay on the value of storytelling.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。Jump to ItJumping rope is an activity that contributes to a healthy lifestyle and helps meet your fitness and wellness goals.
