When I first heard about the improvisation (即兴表演) classes, I was uncertain about whether to sign up. As a very shy person, I ___13___ getting on stage and acting in front of strangers. However, I knew I wanted to work as a science communicator after graduating, so it seemed like the perfect opportunity to improve my speaking ability and build confidence. I signed up, knowing the ___14___ would take me well outside my comfort zone.
During our first class, we learned an important idea of improvisation: “yes, and.” It means that we accept what other performers say. If someone says that monkeys are librarians, for example, then monkeys are librarians. We do not ___15___ the logic (逻辑); we say “yes” and continue with the scene (场景) as if nothing is wrong.
To do this effectively, our teacher warned us that we’d have to avoid second-guessing ourselves. Sometimes scenes go in unexpected directions. The best improvisation happens when performers stay open to ___16___ possibilities and say whatever comes into their minds.
I got a taste of the ___17___ when acting out my first scene. However, as weeks turned into months, I became more comfortable and even started to enjoy our classes. I also became better at listening, relating to my partners, and communicating clearly.
That training came in handy two weeks ago, when I was giving a speech about my science. A student surprised me with a question that came out of nowhere. Instead of getting nervous, I used the “yes, and” method—___18___ the question at face value and letting my mind focus on why it was asked. That helped me stay calm and finally find a proper answer.
The benefits of improvisation go beyond communication. Early on in school, I would get stuck when ___19___ data was produced in my experiments; my inner critic would suppose I had made a mistake. But now, after using the “yes, and” method, I no longer go into an experiment thinking that I already know the story my data are going to tell.
This lesson can ___20___ all scientists. If the data say monkeys are librarians, then it’s worth studying whether monkeys are, in fact, librarians. Our job as scientists isn’t to produce data that support a story that we already know. Our job is to say “yes, and”.

Hey, that’s me!
Amy Jandrisevits knows the value of a good doll. “Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand,” she told The Today Show. It’s what she learned while working as a social worker in a hospital. She used dolls to help her young patients to adapt (适应) to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls. But for the kids missing an arm or a leg, there were none they could relate to.
So, seven years ago, when a friend’s son lost one of his arms because of an accident, Jandrisevits knew what might help the little boy to go through this challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, ‘You are perfect the way you are,’ and to build confidence that way, but never offer them anything that looks like them,” she says. Jandrisevits went about changing that. She made a doll by hand that looked like her friend’s child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo online of the happy child and his doll, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby, who was missing a leg.
Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits was making dolls for children with facial scars (疤) and birthmarks—in short, a doll that looked like themselves. She quitted her job and started an organization called A Doll Like Me which offers dolls to those children for free.
Working out of her home in Milwaukee, from photos sent by parents or caregivers, Jandrisevits spends about seven hours making each doll. A Go Fund Me page helps her with costs and allows her to donate her services.
In all, she’s made more than 400 dolls so far. The waiting list is long, but Jandrisevits is not planning to give up. As she explains, “Every kid, no matter which country, age, medical problem, or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”
24. What happened seven years ago
A Jandrisevits became a social worker in a hospital.
B. Jandrisevits lost one of her arms in an accident.
C. Jandrisevits planned to start her own business.
D. Jandrisevits made a doll for her friend’s son.
25. Jandrisevits started A Doll Like Me to ________.
A. teach parents how to make dolls at home
B. offer dolls to children with medical problems
C. provide social workers for children’s hospitals
D. send caregivers to families with disabled children
26. According to Jandrisevits, what is the value of good dolls
A. Looking after dolls helps children to be more caring.
B. Selling dolls is a good way to improve children’s social skills.
C. Seeing themselves in dolls can help children build confidence.
D. Making dolls provides more job opportunities for social workers.
【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C

What do table football, a Barbie’s house and a toy car all have in common They are all much smaller than real things. Humans have long been interested in miniature (微小) things. The fashion, marketing, and the design industry all use miniature one way or another, and the public seems to love it. This is the effect of cuteness psychology (心理).
The psychology of cuteness is the idea that seeing something small and cute encourages connecting behaviors and the need to take care of it and protect it. However, our attraction to small objects isn’t fully a result of a strong hope to act as a parent. More recent research has shown that our feeling to cuteness isn’t necessarily related to some kind of inborn need to be taken care of, but rather more of a general, positive feeling that can influence how we socially interact with other people.
Seeing tiny things, humans or animals gives off dopamine (多巴胺), which is involved with forming emotional connections. When the body gives off dopamine, it makes us feel in love with the object we are attracted to. “The human brain is designed to love cute, small things by awarding us with dopamine to make sure we will love our tiny babies. This protects their survival and, in turn, the survival of we humans,” says Sam Von Reiche, a psychologist in New Jersey.
Meanwhile, small things bring back the comfort of childhood. In times of stress, we return to things that gave us comfort at an early age. It doesn’t need to be the exact toy we played with as a child, or even a toy at all. It could be a miniature model of a thing. We connect tiny objects with the safety and comfort they brought us in an earlier time in our lives.
Some people may be interested in miniatures because they don’t have the money to get real-life ones. While we might not be able to own an expensive race car, a miniature copy can offer unbelievable emotional awards. Certain tiny objects from one’s travels, for example, a tiny Eiffel Tower can bring a sense of connection to important life stories and the people who have shared our journey.
Depending on one’s needs, a miniature object can bring a sense of pleasure, satisfaction, and even emotional comfort.
27. What can we learn from the passage
A The fashion leads to the cuteness psychology.
B. People prefer real objects when they grow up.
C. Our attraction to tiny things brings positive feelings.
D. Expensive race cars bring back the comfort of childhood.
28. According to Sam Von Reiche, ________.
A. dopamine can save humans in a natural way
B. cuteness preference helps with human survival
C. the human brain is designed to love real-life things
D. dopamine can mislead human emotion to feel in love
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. Why are we really into small things
B. What do all small things have in common
C. Where does cuteness psychology come from
D. Why are our brains designed to love miniatures
【答案】27. C 28. B 29. A

D
The idea is not new that the spaces we live and work in influence our feelings and 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.
30. 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.
31. The writer probably agrees that _________.
A. there should be more buildings in green colour in cities
B. visually complex design is more likely to create stress
C. it is a must to consider the building itself and its style
D. buildings with simple appearance bring us comfort
32. The words “appeal to” in the last paragraph are closest in meaning to _________.
A. please B. house C. shape D. upset
33. 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.
【答案】30. D 31. C 32. A 33. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了以人为本的建筑设计。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“However, there are a number of architects moving in a new direction, interested in creating people-centred building designs.”可知，有许多建筑师正朝着一个新的方向发展，他们对创造以人为本的建筑设计感兴趣，即他们的设计开始关注人类的感受。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中“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.”可知，说风格不重要是错误的，我们想要看起来很棒又实用的东西，但是如果风格变得比建筑本身更重要，事情可能会出错并对我们产生负面影响；由此推知作者认为必须考虑建筑本身及其风格。故选C。
【32题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“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.”可知，没有人希望一栋建筑制造不好的感觉，如果我们能创造出吸引居民的空间，并达到他们的目的，那么最终的结果会更令人满意，也更有可能经得起时间的考验；由此可推测出“appeal to”与“please”意思相同，意为“使……满意”。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Our cities are set to grow year on year with no end in sight, so we should make sure new developments are built more with people in mind.”可知，我们的城市将逐年增长，看不到尽头，所以我们应该确保新开发项目的建设更多地考虑到人们；由此可推断出作者写这一段的主要目的是呼吁以人为本的建筑设计。故选B。

Smarter libraries deliver greater knowledge
How long does it take a reader to get a book after placing an order in a library of over 8 million The answer from a new library in the east of Beijing is less than 15 minutes.
Beijing Library has become a popular place since it opened in December last year. It received over 80,000 visits during the three-day New Year holiday. Book lovers are attracted not only by the library’s building design, which looks like a reading space under big ginkgo trees, but also by its huge collection of books and smart services.
Covering some 75,000m , Beijing Library houses over 8 million books. The towering stacks (书库) on the library’s basement floor helps its big amount of books. They are part of the largest single automated storage and retrieval system (自动化仓库), also known as AS/RS, for books in China.
The stacks have a total storage area of less than 3,000m , yet they can store over 7 million books because of their special design. In addition to the stacks, the smart system includes various types of smart equipment like robots, which enable book delivery.
The AS/RS works like the smart brain of the library enabling highly efficient services. Beijing Library is not alone in using AS/RS. The Suzhou No.2 Library, which opened in late 2019, was the first Chinese library to use it.
“Because more local governments place enriching cultural life high on their work list, we are seeing more public libraries introduce the AS/RS,” says Shi Qi, manager of the AS/RS business unit.
To make borrowing books easier, visitors to Beijing Library can sign up for a borrowing service with facial recognition and other technologies. A digital guide at the library’s entrance also offers interactions with visitors if needed.
Readers who don’t want to travel to the library can use the online borrowing service, which will deliver the book to their doorstep. The library’s online borrowing service is open to readers not only in Beijing but also in neighboring Tianjin and Hebei province.
“It’s quite a refreshing experience to visit the library,” says a middle school student. “The books here enrich your mind, and some of the smart services here can blow your mind.”

【答案】例文
It is common that teenagers argue with their parents sometimes. Once, I argued with my parents when I was using my phone to play games. My parents got angry and took my phone away. I was really upset.
Knowing that they did so just to do me good, I finally picked up my courage and sat down with my parents. I told them I appreciated their help and apologized for playing with my phone for too long. I promised I would try to manage my time well. Surprisingly, my parents didn’t criticize me but gave me a big hug. They told me that I had learned to solve the problem and they were really proud of me. We were all happy that we worked out the problem by communicating with each other.
From this experience, I have learned that good communication is the key to solving problems and building trust.

二、完形填空 (每小题1分，共8分)
阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。
When I first heard about the improvisation (即兴表演) classes, I was uncertain about whether to sign up. As a very shy person, I ___13___ getting on stage and acting in front of strangers. However, I knew I wanted to work as a science communicator after graduating, so it seemed like the perfect opportunity to improve my speaking ability and build confidence. I signed up, knowing the ___14___ would take me well outside my comfort zone.
During our first class, we learned an important idea of improvisation: “yes, and.” It means that we accept what other performers say. If someone says that monkeys are librarians, for example, then monkeys are librarians. We do not ___15___ the logic (逻辑); we say “yes” and continue with the scene (场景) as if nothing is wrong.
To do this effectively, our teacher warned us that we’d have to avoid second-guessing ourselves. Sometimes scenes go in unexpected directions. The best improvisation happens when performers stay open to ___16___ possibilities and say whatever comes into their minds.
I got a taste of the ___17___ when acting out my first scene. However as weeks turned into months, I became more comfortable and even started to enjoy our classes. I also became better at listening, relating to my partners, and communicating clearly.
That training came in handy two weeks ago, when I was giving a speech about my science. A student surprised me with a question that came out of nowhere. Instead of getting nervous, I used the “yes, and” method—___18___ the question at face value and letting my mind focus on why it was asked. That helped me stay calm and finally find a proper answer.
The benefits of improvisation go beyond communication. Early on in school, I would get stuck when ___19___ data was produced in my experiments; my inner critic would suppose I had made a mistake. But now, after using the “yes, and” method, I no longer go into an experiment thinking that I already know the story my data are going to tell.
This lesson can ___20___ all scientists. If the data say monkeys are librarians, then it’s worth studying whether monkeys are, in fact, librarians. Our job as scientists isn’t to produce data that support a story that we already know. Our job is to say “yes, and”.
13.
A. feared B. tried C. considered D. regretted
14.
A. experience B. service C. experiment D. treatment
15.
A. use B. believe C. understand D. question
16.
A. real B. different C. serious D. strong
17.
A. difficulty B. success C. loneliness D. joy
18
A. asking B. repeating C. accepting D. improving
19.
A. unknown B. unshown C. unchecked D. unexpected
20.
A. confuse B. benefit C. trouble D. satisfy

Hey, that’s me!
Amy Jandrisevits knows the value of a good doll. “Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand,” she told The Today Show. It’s what she learned while working as a social worker in a hospital. She used dolls to help her young patients to adapt (适应) to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls. But for the kids missing an arm or a leg, there were none they could relate to.
So, seven years ago, when a friend’s son lost one of his arms because of an accident, Jandrisevits knew what might help the little boy to go through this challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, ‘You are perfect the way you are,’ and to build confidence that way, but never offer them anything that looks like them,” she says. Jandrisevits went about changing that. She made a doll by hand that looked like her friend’s child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo online of the happy child and his doll, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby, who was missing a leg.
Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits was making dolls for children with facial scars (疤) and birthmarks—in short, a doll that looked like themselves. She quitted her job and started an organization called A Doll Like Me which offers dolls to those children for free.
Working out of her home in Milwaukee, from photos sent by parents or caregivers, Jandrisevits spends about seven hours making each doll. A Go Fund Me page helps her with costs and allows her to donate her services.
In all, she’s made more than 400 dolls so far. The waiting list is long, but Jandrisevits is not planning to give up. As she explains, “Every kid, no matter which country, age, medical problem, or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”
24. What happened seven years ago
A. Jandrisevits became a social worker in a hospital.
B. Jandrisevits lost one of her arms in an accident.
C. Jandrisevits planned to start her own business.
D. Jandrisevits made a doll for her friend’s son.
25. Jandrisevits started A Doll Like Me to ________.
A. teach parents how to make dolls at home
B. offer dolls to children with medical problems
C. provide social workers for children’s hospitals
D. send caregivers to families with disabled children
26. According to Jandrisevits, what is the value of good dolls
A. Looking after dolls helps children to be more caring.
B. Selling dolls is a good way to improve children’s social skills.
C. Seeing themselves in dolls can help children build confidence.
D. Making dolls provides more job opportunities for social workers.

What do table football, a Barbie’s house and a toy car all have in common They are all much smaller than real things. Humans have long been interested in miniature (微小) things. The fashion, marketing, and the design industry all use miniature one way or another, and the public seems to love it. This is the effect of cuteness psychology (心理).
The psychology of cuteness is the idea that seeing something small and cute encourages connecting behaviors and the need to take care of it and protect it. However, our attraction to small objects isn’t fully a result of a strong hope to act as a parent. More recent research has shown that our feeling to cuteness isn’t necessarily related to some kind of inborn need to be taken care of, but rather more of a general, positive feeling that can influence how we socially interact with other people.
Seeing tiny things, humans or animals gives off dopamine (多巴胺), which is involved with forming emotional connections. When the body gives off dopamine, it makes us feel in love with the object we are attracted to. “The human brain is designed to love cute, small things by awarding us with dopamine to make sure we will love our tiny babies. This protects their survival and, in turn, the survival of we humans,” says Sam Von Reiche, a psychologist in New Jersey.
Meanwhile, small things bring back the comfort of childhood. In times of stress, we return to things that gave us comfort at an early age. It doesn’t need to be the exact toy we played with as a child, or even a toy at all. It could be a miniature model of a thing. We connect tiny objects with the safety and comfort they brought us in an earlier time in our lives.
Some people may be interested in miniatures because they don’t have the money to get real-life ones. While we might not be able to own an expensive race car, a miniature copy can offer unbelievable emotional awards. Certain tiny objects from one’s travels, for example, a tiny Eiffel Tower can bring a sense of connection to important life stories and the people who have shared our journey.
Depending on one’s needs, a miniature object can bring a sense of pleasure, satisfaction, and even emotional comfort.
27. What can we learn from the passage
A. The fashion leads to the cuteness psychology.
B. People prefer real objects when they grow up.
C. Our attraction to tiny things brings positive feelings.
D. Expensive race cars bring back the comfort of childhood.
28. According to Sam Von Reiche, ________.
A. dopamine can save humans in a natural way
B. cuteness preference helps with human survival
C. the human brain is designed to love real-life things
D. dopamine can mislead human emotion to feel in love
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. Why are we really into small things
B. What do all small things have in common
C. Where does cuteness psychology come from
D. Why are our brains designed to love miniatures
D
The idea is not new that the spaces we live and work in influence our feelings and 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.
30. 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.
31. The writer probably agrees that _________.
A. there should be more buildings in green colour in cities
B. visually complex design is more likely to create stress
C. it is a must to consider the building itself and its style
D. buildings with simple appearance bring us comfort
32. The words “appeal to” in the last paragraph are closest in meaning to _________.
A. please B. house C. shape D. upset
33. 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.

Smarter libraries deliver greater knowledge
How long does it take a reader to get a book after placing an order in a library of over 8 million The answer from a new library in the east of Beijing is less than 15 minutes.
Beijing Library has become a popular place since it opened in December last year. It received over 80,000 visits during the three-day New Year holiday. Book lovers are attracted not only by the library’s building design, which looks like a reading space under big ginkgo trees, but also by its huge collection of books and smart services.
Covering some 75,000m , Beijing Library houses over 8 million books. The towering stacks (书库) on the library’s basement floor helps its big amount of books. They are part of the largest single automated storage and retrieval system (自动化仓库), also known as AS/RS, for books in China.
The stacks have a total storage area of less than 3,000m , yet they can store over 7 million books because of their special design. In addition to the stacks, the smart system includes various types of smart equipment like robots, which enable book delivery.
The AS/RS works like the smart brain of the library, enabling highly efficient services. Beijing Library is not alone in using AS/RS. The Suzhou No.2 Library, which opened in late 2019, was the first Chinese library to use it.
“Because more local governments place enriching cultural life high on their work list, we are seeing more public libraries introduce the AS/RS,” says Shi Qi, manager of the AS/RS business unit.
To make borrowing books easier, visitors to Beijing Library can sign up for a borrowing service with facial recognition and other technologies. A digital guide at the library’s entrance also offers interactions with visitors if needed.
Readers who don’t want to travel to the library can use the online borrowing service, which will deliver the book to their doorstep. The library’s online borrowing service is open to readers not only in Beijing but also in neighboring Tianjin and Hebei province.
“It’s quite a refreshing experience to visit the library,” says a middle school student. “The books here enrich your mind, and some of the smart services here can blow your mind.”
34. When did Beijing Library open

35. How many books does Beijing Library house

36. According to Shi Qi, why are we seeing more public libraries introduce the AS/RS
