The chaos of travel through Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) calms down when you walk into the Orchestrina. At the start of a 1000-foot-long hallway connecting Tom Bradley International Terminal’s (航站楼) Great Hall to its west gates, the light softens to blue. What amazes passengers is the gentle waves of music that greet them as they are carried through the terminal by the moving sidewalk. Along the way, the music shifts between 30 compositions from well-known artists.
The Orchestrina, a piece of public art equipment from L.A. radio and Dublab, is part of a new three-year contract for the station to program live music and sound art at LAX. It’s an introduction to L.A.’s experimental music and art scenes. As passengers are on edge over the many things going wrong in the skies these days, the Orchestria offers an experience of tasteful, mental peace.
“That’s absolutely the intention, to offer, like, a break from the fast-paced urban schedule,” said Cohen, executive director of Dublab, “There’s a really interesting effect when you enter the hallway, coming down this long set of stairs and entering this blue light that completely surrounds you with music and field recordings where you can hear birds and wind passing through grass.” There are many events planned for the three years to come, as Dublab tries to make one of the most awful locations in the county somewhere you might intend staying longer and listening.
“We desire to reflect our city, and I think we’ve got to bake the arts programming in as part of that. At the end of the day, we’re all just human beings using these public spaces.” explained Sarah Cifarelli, LAX Art Program Director. “That’s part of the point, though — to show off the city for anyone looking closely and make it gentler for anyone passing through. These are the things that you kind of live for, you work for, being part of the heartbeat of the city,” Cohen said, “It’s another step towards being integrated into the city whether intentionally or not.”
4 What impresses the passengers when they walk into the Orchestrina
A. The long hallway. B. The blue light.
C. The moving sidewalk. D. The relaxing music.
5. What will Dublab’s three-year project bring according to Cohen
A. A refreshing interaction with nature. B. A momentary escape from busy routine.
C. The increase in LAX’s commercial value. D. The promotion of local artists and their music.
6. What is the arts programming aimed at
A. Making full use of public spaces. B. Prioritizing showing off the city.
C. Being mixed into the city’s identity. D. Speeding up the city’s development.
7. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A. Dublab’s Music: a Relief from Stress B. Exploring LAX: Finding Peace in Light
C. LAX’s New Art Program: Peace in Chaos D. Orchestrina: a High-tech Design in the City
C
It turns out patience isn’t always a virtue. By the time Nalin Kamat was 13, the Toronto teen was well on his way to becoming a working artist. He had already had his first show at a local arts hub, showcasing his series titled Dispositions, charcoal sketches of the human body as a metaphor for his own transformation during adolescence.
Yet he wanted more-specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition (评审展览), where art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering that the minimum age for submission was 18.
That rejection stimulates his creation. “There was a void in the art world, and I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity for more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, Nalin founded in 2023 Little ‘EGG Gallery, a commercial studio specially for underage artists. The gallery, which is now profitable enough to break even, charges a small hanging fee for any displayed work and takes a 15 percent commission fee on sales. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talents by showcasing their work.
Not long after opening, Ontario College of Art and Design University professor and artist David Griffin stumbled upon the gallery while taking a casual walk with his wife in their neighbourhood. An exhibition was being installed at the time, and some of Nalin’s own work was on the walls. Upon meeting Nalin, Griffin says he understood that he was speaking with someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea, which was to provide a space for showing the local community the easy, natural genius of young people.” A connection was formed, and Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition.
The first juried show was last spring, and the top three winners each received a $50 cash prize. Five-year-old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled Pokemon.
8. What mainly drove Nalin to start Little EGG Gallery
A. The support of his parents. B. The desire to create his own studio.
C. The wish to offer young artists chances. D. The approval from the local community.
9. What does the underlined phrase “stumbled upon” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Withdrew from. B. Came across. C. Looked around. D. Headed for.
10. Which of the following best describes Nalin Kamat
A. Patient and humble. B. Determined and sympathetic.
C. Competitive and cooperative. D. Creative and devoted.
11. What can we learn from David Griffin’s words
A. Nalin’s uniqueness impressed him a lot.
B. Nalin’s idea received wide recognition.
C. Nalin’s platform boosted young artists’ creativity.
D. Nalin’s efforts brought about the neighborhood unity.
D
“Shhh!” This is the demand that eco-acoustics (生态声学) researcher Jerome Sueur makes of humanity. The noises of technology spread across even the remotest corners of the planet. Sueur explores the impact of the ever-present sound on the animal world in Natural History of Silence.
Between travelogue-style chapters and philosophical reflections, the book covers many key terms and theories, such as the acoustic niche hypothesis (声学生态位假说), which assumes that each species has its own acoustic space to improve communication with its own kind and limit sound competition from other species. Sueur’s point is this: silence is a crucial resource, like food or water, which species compete for to survive. “Making sound is important,” he writes. But humans need to “make sure we are not more alive than others”.
When the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病) unexpectedly put human activities on hold, noise-monitoring organizations in France recorded a 60 – 75% drop in sound levels in many cities. Globally, wildlife communication changed during lockdowns. Fish and dolphins off the coast of New Zealand extended the range of their calls by 65% owing to a sharp reduction in boat travel. However, when humans emerged from their homes, so did all human-generated sounds and their harmful effects on natural systems, Sueur writes.
Sueur calls for a greater awareness of the need to preserve zones where noise is not welcome, effectively proposing a global network of silent shelters for wildlife. The book, thus, highlights an imaginary dividing line between humanity and nature — an approach to conservation that has thwarted contemporary environmentalists who believe true conservation success comes from building a harmonious bond with nature. Some even argue against it in public and attempt to seek more all-around solutions that involve local and indigenous (本土) communities.
To encourage readers to act, the book could have included stories about successful no-fly zones where communities are working to address the problem. But the focus on solutions is narrow. Instead, his winding and wordy writing often carries a tone of anger, which could drive away the people he wants to silence.
12. What does the acoustic niche hypothesis assume
A. Species use sounds to communicate. B. Each species has a unique sound range.
C. Species compete for sound resources. D. Making sound is the key to survival.
13. Why are fish and dolphins mentioned in paragraph 3
A. To show the destruction caused by the pandemic.
B. To stress the role of animals in the local ecosystem.
C. To illustrate the impact of human activities on wildlife.
D. To compare responses of different animals to lockdowns.
14. What does the underlined word “thwarted” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Enlightened. B. Transformed. C. Misled. D. Discouraged.
15. What can we learn about the book from the last paragraph
A. It is written in an objective tone. B. It serves its writing purpose well.
C. It fails to relate to certain readers. D. It conveys rather shallow ideas.

【答案】Good morning, everyone!
Today, I want to talk about the power of reading. Reading is a lifelong journey that enriches our minds and broadens our horizons. When I feel lost, a good book guides me like a lamp, offering wisdom and comfort. Reading also improves our skills: it enhances vocabulary, sharpens critical thinking, and even boosts imagination.
In a world full of digital noise, reading allows us to escape daily stress and dive into different cultures or eras. Whether through a physical book or an e-reader, every word we read plants a seed of growth.
So let reading be our compass, lighting up our path and showing us the endless power within.
Thank you!
