Liu Yujia, a 24-year-old architecture student, has journeyed across more than 200 Chinese cities to photograph buildings dating from the 1980s to the 2010s.
He was born in Jilin province and his happiest childhood memories are the rare occasions when his father would take him by bicycle into the city center to see its skyline. Only when he got good grades would he get that reward. Today, with 160, 000 followers on his social account he works to document these aging structures, capturing their distinctive elements before they disappear.
For Liu, these buildings represent what he calls "outdated futurism", which refers to the ambitious and futuristic architectural designs emerging during China's rapid development period, describing a style that now appears old-fashioned yet still stirs up nostalgia (怀旧) and reflects the hopeful spirit of its era.
His images offer comfort to China's post-2000s generation because they visually reconnect young people with a hopeful, revolutionary past, allowing them to emotionally escape from today's standardized urban environments and commercialized architecture. These "outdated futurism" structures serve not only as nostalgic backdrops to their childhoods but also as symbols of an era that once dared to dream, offering spiritual shelter in the face of contemporary pressures.
Experts explain these unique buildings stand as powerful cultural symbols of a perceived golden age, effectively satisfying the younger generation's double search for alternative aesthetics (美学) and an emotional connection to a simpler, more predictable past. Through his camera, Liu not only preserves valuable architectural heritage but also helps his entire generation reconnect with their shared memories and collectively rediscover the hopeful optimism that these structures once vividly represented for society.
24. Why does Liu Yujia focus on photographing buildings from the 1980s to 2010s
A. To study architectural history.
B. To preserve unique design features.
C. To promote tourism in Chinese cities.
D. To compare building styles across decades.
25. What do the words "outdated futurism" refer to in paragraph 3
A. Old structures rebuilt to look futuristic.
B. Novel buildings dating back to the past.
C. Once-futuristic designs now appearing dated.
D. Modern architectures copying historical styles.
26. Why do post-2000s youth find comfort in Liu's images
A. It fulfills a desire for emotional shelter.
B. It introduces futuristic designs to the public.
C. It documents the rapid urbanization of China.
D. It showcases the creativity of modern architects.
27. How do experts view Liu's work according to the text
A. It is mainly an online artistic trend.
B. It is valuable for aesthetics research.
C. It holds cultural and social importance.
D. It focuses on recording building details.
C
So, you’ve finished that dull book. You sat through the movie you paid for, super bored. Stood in a long queue for that milk tea. Paid much for the luxury handbag—expensive nonsense.
What do these have in common They’re all examples of what economists call “sunk costs (沉没成本)”: the price you’ve already paid—in time, money, effort, suffering, for an item or an experience—holds you to them. It’s a phenomenon we all recognize. It affects our behavior in ways that can be unreasonable. But we do it.
To avoid the situation, economists tell us to make decisions based mainly on future value, not past investment. If the ongoing cost outweighs the expected benefit, one should cut their losses and walk away. It hurts, yes, but this cold, clear logic protects us from going broke.
Yet, life is rarely so neatly calculated. This purely economic view raises difficult questions: Does the value of an experience lie only in its outcome, or also in the process A joyful journey with an ordinary goal and a painful one aimed at a splendid achievement, which one is more worthwhile
When it comes to education, the sunk costs theory doesn’t seem applicable. Parents and teachers pour immeasurable amount of investment—love, time, hope, money—into the growth of a child. Will the child turn out the way they expect No guarantee. If we view this through a strict cost-benefit angle, much of education can be written off as a “sunk cost.” Education is obviously different from the commercial world. A child’s growth cannot be planned like a business strategy: it unfolds like a unique and unpredictable story. We can’t dream his dreams or live his life; we can only build the stage, and light his path.
In education we have to hold onto this faith: everything we do for a child is worthwhile. Every act of love is like offering light and water to a seed; while we can’t see its roots grow underground, we know it. That child will blossom (开花) some day. Not all that has cost is sunk.
28. Which of the following best describes the examples in paragraph 1
A. Boring but beneficial. B. Interesting but worthless.
C. Joyful and worthwhile. D. Senseless and regrettable.
29. What do economists advise us to do to avoid sunk costs
A. Focus on the outcome. B. Ignore the future losses.
C. Calculate the past cost. D. Pursue the hidden gains.
30. What is the writer’s attitude towards the investment in education
A. Indifferent B. Favorable. C. Balanced. D. Critical.
31. Why does the author write the text
A. To promote a principle. B. To correct a misbehavior.
C. To challenge a concept. D. To present a phenomenon.
D
Think of pollution and your mind’s eye might conjure up smoke-emitting factories, car exhausts (尾气) and those plastic garbage you see on beaches. What probably doesn’t spring to mind is the mesosphere, a slice of sky far above the height any plane flies. And yet a growing number of scientists are sounding the alarm that this could be the site of a worrying new form of pollution.
There are currently more than 15,000 satellites circling around our planet, and almost all are bound to be de-orbited (使脱离轨道), burning up in the atmosphere. In doing so, they will release clouds of metals and reactive chemicals that could have worrying effects, mainly damaging our protective ozone (臭氧) layer.
Over the past decade or so, the cost of launching satellites has decreased, thanks to the rise of reusable rockets. Both factors have led to the launch of a huge number of satellites. Foremost among them is the Starlink, which currently consists of around 8000 satellites used to provide broadband internet.
Why does this pose a problem The lifetime of these satellites is often only about five years, partly because they are designed to carry limited fuel, which they require to stay in the air. To prevent the old satellites from crowding into near-Earth space, risking crashing into each other, the satellite companies direct them into the atmosphere to burn up. However, when burned in air, the reaction will cause damage to the ozone known for absorbing ultraviolet radiation (紫外线辐射) from the sun that would otherwise be harmful to life.
Stefan L hle, a leading scientist at the University of Stuttgart in Germany, proposes that simply changing the path of a satellite as it de-orbits could change the air resistance it experiences, potentially reducing the amount and composition of material left behind.
Satellite pollution may not have become a serious threat yet, but for L hle it isn’t OK for companies to set aside this concern.“It’s all a bit like,‘ let’s think about this later’,” he says.“But later is now.”
32. What does the underlined phrase mean in Paragraph 1
A. Expose. B. Upgrade. C. Visualize. D. Ignore.
33. What has contributed to the new form of pollution
A. Harming the ozone layer. B. Advancement in rocket technology.
C. Founding of the Starlink. D. Burning up of the atmosphere.
34. What do we know about the satellite companies
A. They are profit-driven. B. They are in a tough spot.
C. They are risk-taking. D. They are technologically advanced.
35. Which of the following best describes Stefan L hle’s attitude
A. Many hands make light work. B. No use crying over spilt milk.
C. It’s never too late to mend. D. Prevention is better than cure.

The Value of Poetry
Horace, the famous Roman poet who lived from 65 BC to 8 BC, once said, “The poet’s aim is to combine the delightful and the useful.” A poet will take insights into our world covered in fog and cut through that fog to reveal the truth beneath in their poetry.__36____
Poetry is rich in wisdom and knowledge, yet it is often remarkably brief in form. We’re living in a world where everything becomes so fast-paced that it’s hard to focus on anything for long. __37___It allows us to start and finish something of value within life’s small windows of time—whether we’re waiting for the bus with our child, or seeking a meaningful thought to share at the dinner table. It can be spoken over our audience, or used to start a deeper discussion.
Similar to the way in which poetry reveals hidden, yet familiar truths, it can also reveal hidden yet familiar beauty. When a poet uses beautiful language to describe elements of beauty within our world, we may feel shocked. __38___Only then will we realize that we have never fully appreciated the things around us. We begin to learn the art of treasuring what we have.
___39___By thoughtfully engaging with poetry, we step into the perspectives of others. In the process, we will sharpen our awareness, deepen our empathy, and actively expand our emotional intelligence.
To pass down the power of poetry to the next generation, it’s best to develop a love and appreciation for it in our children from an early age. __40___This practice offers an opportunity to create a bonding experience and lasting memories.
A. A short poem is a gift for us.
B. Poems can inspire us in a number of ways.
C. In this way, poetry helps us understand the world better.
D. Poetry fuels our curiosity and unlocks further exploration.
E. It involves spending plenty of time reading poems together.
F. Poetry gives voice to our shared human emotions and experiences.
G. Suddenly we become aware of the beauty so close yet unseen before.

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。
It was a hot day in New York City. I had brunch with a friend and picked up my new glasses. All done and headed back on the train. I wanted to yell at a couple of people for their rude behavior, but wisely just sat quietly.
An old black gentleman entered the far end of the train car. In worn but neat clothes, he tipped his faded cap and greeted everyone with a warm “Good afternoon, folks.” Most ignored him, with cold blank faces. Then, he started to sing. I didn’t turn my head, but I felt a smile in my soul. Many people ask for money on the train, but I always feel happy when someone offers music instead. It feels like a gift.
I let the notes settle in for a second before my eyes wandered. A young boy across from me, maybe ten, watched him, swaying (摇摆) to the rhythm, his mother too distracted by her phone to notice.
He started his second song and my heart did a happy dance. “Lean on me, when you’re not strong. I’ll be your friend...” I love that song! Without thinking, I softly sang a little harmony with him. Right away, I decided he could have the $5 bill in my purse.
He looked tall and thin, but he had a strong voice and kind energy. Life had clearly been hard for him, but he still stood tall and carried himself with quiet dignity.
I rolled the bill tightly and waited for him to make his way to me. He held the overhead bar to steady himself as he inched down the car, pausing briefly beside each seat like he was waiting for a sign — though no one glanced up. No one was making any moves to give him coins or reach for their wallet.
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。
Somehow, he noticed me singing along. It was still hot and sticky inside the car, but something had changed.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I’m Li Hua, a Grade Two student. Having learned that you’re recruiting an English Script Editor for our school’s English radio station, I’m writing to apply for the position.
Firstly, I have a proficient command of English, especially in written expression. My essay won the first prize in the city’s high school English writing contest, which has refined my ability to compose and polish English scripts. Secondly, As a keen follower of English news, I have a keen eye for selecting appealing campus news materials, which will undoubtedly cater to students’ diverse needs. Additionally, The experience of assisting in organizing the school’s English culture week equips me with the competence to collaborate on planning English-themed programs.
I would greatly appreciate the opportunity for an interview to further demonstrate my capabilities. I’m eager to contribute my efforts to the radio station and look forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
Somehow, he noticed me singing along. He looked up and slowly walked toward me, his eyes shining with surprise and warmth. I slipped the rolled bill into his rough hand, and he gave me a grateful nod. Then, leaning closer, he whispered, “Sing with me, sister.” Without hesitation, I joined him. Our voices blended, his strong and soulful, mine soft but steady. For a moment, the crowded train car felt like a tiny concert hall, filled not with heat and impatience, but with harmony.
It was still hot and sticky inside the car, but something had changed. One by one, passengers lifted their heads, listening. The young boy’s swaying turned into clapping, his laughter breaking through the dull silence. A few others began humming along, and even his mother put down her phone. When the song ended, coins and bills appeared in the man’s cap from every direction. He stood taller, pride glowing in his smile, and I felt a quiet joy — proof that even in a weary city, music could open hearts and bring strangers together
