The first living robots,     1     (term) as Xenobots, can reproduce on their own in a dish in a way not seen in plants and animals. This is not     2     science-fiction movie, but the result of a new study. They     3     (create) in 2020 after experiments showed that under the right lab conditions, the cells formed small structures that could gather, move and work together in groups and self-heal.

Are they living organisms     4     robots? Undeniably, they are organisms because they are made of stem cells from an African frog species and can reproduce. They are also robots because they can move on their own and perform physical labor. Breakthrough     5     Xenobots are, concerns have been raised. Some people think the self - reproducing biotechnology is a potential threat,     6     (say) more advanced future Xenobots could out-compete     7     ( human). In response to the worries, the researchers claim that the living machines are entirely contained in a lab, which     8     ( mean) that the risks are manageable and stoppable.

To be sure, the Xenobot technology is very new, but with its popularity, it may be used to address the diverse     9     (trick) issues in the body and the environment. Hopefully, in a world full of self - reproducing problems like Covid-19,studying Xenobots may lead scientists much     10     (close) to solutions.

4 . Why do visitors go to museums? I often ask this question to those who have ever come to a museum.    1    As an artist and part of the educational staff at the Walker Art Center, I hope to dig into visitors’ needs so that we could tailor museum experiences to create more successful visitor experiences. Here is my observation of each motivational identity and characterization of different types of visitors.

Professionals

This category includes teachers, educators, museum professionals, artists, and people in related fields.    2     For example, a photographer may attend with the goal in mind to take pictures or to learn about photography through exhibits. An art educator may be interested in the art to broaden the knowledge of his own field or to plan a lesson.

Explorers

    3     If you ask them if they like art they will say “yes”; but if you ask them if they come for something in particular, they will probably say “no”. They do not have concrete learning goals but they like to know new things. They may or may not know how to use the museum.

Experience Seekers

An experience seeker is a person who is checking off a list of landmarks to visit, whether personal or as a tourist.     4    They simply want to do “what you’re supposed to see in that city or area”. This type of visitors may need to see the museum’s highlights to feel satisfied.

Facilitators

Facilitators come because of someone else. They are perhaps bringing a friend or a group of people- possibly the children or students because they think the visit would benefit the others, not out of a personal need.    5    

A．They want to see what is typical of that place.

B．Their goals may range by their particular .roles.

C．There are different reasons for visitors’ coming here.

D．You may wonder why I’ m interested in this question.

E．Others will naturally pay a visit to museums regularly.

F．Their personal need is to make a good experience for others.

G．They come because attending museums satisfies their curiosity.

5 . Most of us set a goal with energy and motivation. If it is achieved, we will feel we are on cloud nine. But in most cases, we can’t reach our goals easily. Why do we often fail to hit the target? The answer lies in the disconnection between our brains’ evaluation of rewards and the “get it done” realities that influence our behavior.

Our brains are reward-driven organs charged by neurotransmitters (神经递质) that fuel our drives and desires, and it’ s easy for us to get carried away in this chemical tsunami. So, when we set up a goal, our focus is on the reward. We picture getting the reward, and how we’ll feel when we make it, which pushes us into action. But once we begin, we come face to face with what’s really required to reach the goal and our focus shifts from reward to effort.

In other words, a focus on rewards fuels the pursuit, but a focus on effort takes over when the work starts. For example, getting up early to exercise for a new healthy lifestyle might seem like a good choice, but once your alarm goes off on a cold January morning, the rewards aren’t enough to get you up and out of bed. When we face the reality of our choices, we realize the effort is too much and give up.

In fairness, though, we don’t always have the best sense of how much effort something will require, especially if it’s a goal we haven’t pursued before. Getting better at setting goals has much to do with figuring this out and not letting ourselves forget the lesson.

Next time, begin our goal pursuits with as much realistic acknowledgment of the effort required as possible. Then, once we begin, refocus back to the reward and continue the efforts.

1. What does the underlined phrase “on cloud nine” mean in paragraph 1?

A．Scared.

B．Overjoyed.

C．Restless.

D．Weary.

2. What may account for one’s unachieved goal?

A．Aiming high, working less.

B．Speaking more, doing less.

C．More efforts, less speed.

D．More pains, more gains.

3. What do people often fail to recognize in setting goals?

A．Duration.

B．Effort.

C．Cost.

D．Reward.

4. What’s the author’s advice to us?

A．Refocus back to the goal.

B．Achieve your goal step by step.

C．Accept failure and learn from the past.

D．Set practical goals and work consistently.

6 . On March 15, 2022, Francis Kéré was awarded the Pritzker Prize, otherwise known as the Nobel Prize for architecture, becoming the first African architect ever to obtain this prize.

His path to success was not smooth. When he was 7 years old, Francis Kéré left his family home to attend school because his village, Gando in Burkina Faso, did not have one of its own. Thirteen years later, he moved to Germany on a carpentry scholarship, with a dream of returning home one day to build the classrooms that didn’t exist then. Kéré achieved just that, becoming an architect and completing his first building, Gando Primary School, in 2001.

Casting mud like concrete and using local materials over imported ones, Kéré proposed a particular vision of structure that both strengthens communities and responds to the climate crisis. As such, Tuesday’s Pritzker Prize announcement is not only a nod of approval for him, but for “vernacular” architecture — a term used to describe designs that directly respond to local climates, materials and building traditions — itself. He also let the whole village participate in the design, encouraging them to construct the school, using local wood to press the stone floors and local clay to make bricks. The result was a welcoming structure with a “floating” roof that allows natural winds in a hot climate, and wall openings that bring light for students to learn even without electricity. Mr. Kéré showed the villagers that ideas to deal with climate or other challenges are always at hand.

Though, Kéré has since designed bigger projects, including many national-scale projects differing in size, his approach remains grounded in Gando. “That’s how I’m trying to translate the work I have started in Gando to structures that present national pride,” says the newly-awarded architect.

Kéré will officially be named Pritzker winner at a ceremony in London later this year. As with previous winner, he will be awarded a $ 100,000 grant and a bronze medal.

1. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2?

A．Speak highly of Kéré’s efforts.

B．Introduce Kéré’ s childhood dream.

C．Bring a new topic for discussion.

D．Add some background information.

2. What’s Kéré’s architectural concept?

A．Economizing labour force.

B．Having a fancy appearance.

C．Highlighting sustainability.

D．Using imported building materials.

3. Which can best describe Francis Kéré?

A．Creative and caring.

B．Optimistic and humorous.

C．Humble and ambitious.

D．Stubborn and adventurous.

4. What kind of writing is the text?

A．An award speech.

B．A news report.

C．A novel.

D．A review.

8 . 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

As a young boy, I was carefree. Every vacation I looked forward to two things—seeing my grandpa and hearing his wonderful stories. My grandpa was a very good storyteller. He had worked various odd jobs when he was young and wove his adventures and misadventures into fantastic tales. These wonderful tales colored my childhood.

As I grew up, I had to admit that Grandpa’s stories went on a little long, even a little boring and gradually lost their magic. However, not wanting to upset him, my brother and I would sometimes take turns sitting in the living room, listening to grandpa tell his stories.

When my grandpa was approaching 91, he suffered from serious memory-loss. It was kind of what doctors called dementia (痴呆), probably the earliest stage of Alzheimer’s disease. Following the doctor’s directions, we moved him into a Sunrise Assisted Living Community, where he could get a better care. After that, grandpa hardly came to our house.

One weekend before my grandpa’s birthday, I came to visit him. Seeing grandpa sitting in his armchair, dull-looking, I was consumed with mixed feelings. I wheeled grandpa to the sunshine in the courtyard, talking to him. He couldn’t express himself clearly and spoke in short bursts, but I listened to him patiently and carefully just as I used to be a little boy.

It was then that I noticed a shadow box with some old and yellowish photos in it. I picked one up, in which my brother, several boys in our neighborhood, and I were playing basketball with grandpa cheering us on twenty years before. My mind flashed back to those beautiful memories. Back then, Grandpa was in good physical condition and we were all wearing basketball jerseys, playing and laughing with abandon. I presented the photo to my grandpa, pointing at each member and reminding him of their names. Incredibly, grandpa could speak out the name of every player. I even caught a soft light in grandpa’s eyes and a smile on his lips.

9 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

A photo taken on March 23, 2022 shows students attending a live streamed popular-science lecture given by the Shenzhou-13 crew members.     1     class began at 3:40 p.m. and was attended by students from three classrooms across China.

Wang Yaping,     2     was assisted by the other two crew members, conducted several scientific experiments. One of the most     3     (appeal) experiments was the “ice ball” experiment. As she showed,     4     the space station maintains a fixed temperature at all times, she can transform water into “ice” with only a “tap”. It turned out to be a crystallization (结晶) effect     5     (cause) by the micro-gravity environment in space. Students     6     (enthusiastic) raised questions concerning their daily lives. The live stream was broadcast by China Central Television,     7     (draw) a total of 3.3 million views.

A number of countries have engaged in space lectures, but only China and the US     8     (realize) the live streaming of lectures with smooth two-way connections between Earth and space so far. It will not only promote     9     (man) understanding toward the values of manned space flight but more importantly, serve as an     10     (inspire) to youngsters and boost the country’s talent reserve in the fields of science and technology.

10 . It may come as a surprise that the fashion industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world, especially when it comes to carbon emissions and water usage.     1     Clothing production releases 10% of worldwide carbon emissions. Although cotton is often offered as a more sustainable material, one cotton shirt requires 2, 700 liters of water to make, which is enough for one person to drink eight cups per day for 2.5 years.

    2     However, it’s undeniable that sustainable companies like Reformation and Organic Basics are out of most people’s price ranges. Fast-fashion clothing companies have the advantage of low prices, and when it comes down to it, most people will choose low prices over sustainability. So, how can people buy sustainable clothing when it’s not affordable?    3    

Actually, there are other ways to practice sustainable habits. Of course, the best way to limit waste is to not buy any new clothes. For example, saving up to buy more sustainable clothes and then wearing them for many years is healthier for the environment and your wallet.     4     Then you can combine them with your statement pieces to get a variety of new outfits that still feel stylish and don’t generate waste. Certainly, buying second-hand clothing is also a great option.

With ever-changing fashion trends moving at breakneck speed, consumers are easily persuaded into buying latest designs to stay stylish and sustainable.     5     Honestly, it’s unnecessary. Wearing what makes you feel confident will make you look good, and the earth will thank you for your efforts.

A．The reality is frightening.

B．However, trend is hard to keep up.

C．They have no choice but to follow suit.

D．They can’t, and moreover, they don’t have to.

E．A similar resolution is to own some basic pieces.

F．Sustainable fashion has been on the rise in recent years.

G．Industrial development is pursued at the price of pollution.
