The word “desert” suggests barrenness (荒芜) for many, but anyone near one knows how rich and complex it can be, which is true of the best books set there. Here is a brief selection of desert reads. Get a glimpse of awe-inspiring vistas, rugged wildlife, tales of resilience and more.
The Land of Little Rain
By Mary Austin Penguin Classics: 128 pp., $17 (1903; reprinted 1997)
Arguably the first lyrical essay collection about the California desert, Austin drew on her Owens Valley travels, covering mining, tribal life, weather and water. The book is thrilling in its close-attention to details. Here, she writes, “It is possible to live with great energy, to have red blood and delicate joys.”
Desert Solitaire: A Season in the Wilderness
By Edward Abbey, Ballantine Books: 352 pp., $10 (1968; reprinted 1985)
Abbey’s bestselling memoir revealed the Southwest’s beauty and fragility, depicting awe-inspiring vistas while thundering against those who damage it. Often likened to Walden, Abbey’s darkly humorous voice gave Western literature a tone distinct from East Coast gentility and folksy cowboy writing.
Mecca
By Susan Straight, V: 384 pp., $19 (2022)
A contemporary epic set in the Coachella Valley, Straight’s novel offers a cross-section of desert inhabitants — a motorcycle officer, a spa employee, a family rocked by a police shooting — set against the demands of desert life. It speaks to the present while exploring the region’s long history.
The Deserts of California: A California Field Atlas
By Obi Kaufmann, Heyday, 576 pp., $55 (2023)

Alan Macfarlane, a professor of anthropological science at King’s College, Cambridge, has long been fascinated by the Industrial Revolution, a pivotal event that reshaped the world. Like other historians, he has spent decades trying to unlock the mystery: Why did this transformative “Big Bang” occur in Britain in the late 18th century
Macfarlane compares finding the cause of the Industrial Revolution to opening a combination lock. He believes about 20 key factors are needed, including industrial technology, a large labor force, efficient transport, a wealthy middle class, a market economy and a supportive political system. Britain had most of these conditions, while other countries had only some. These factors were necessary but not sufficient, so historians suspect there must be “missing factors.”
Here’s where the story takes an unexpected turn: the “missing factors” might be in your kitchen cupboard. Macfarlane proposes tea and beer, beloved British drinks, fueled the revolution. Thanks to boiled water and natural antibacterial elements in them, these drinks helped protect people from water-borne diseases, allowing urban communities to grow densely without falling prey to illnesses like dysentery.
At first glance, the theory seems odd. But his research wins over skeptics. Between 1650 — 1740, Britain’s population grew rapidly. The infant mortality rate dropped sharply in both cities and the countryside, among people of all social classes. None of the suggested reasons could fully explain this phenomenon. So what changed
Macfarlane connected this to disease patterns. Water-borne illnesses, especially dysentery, decreased. He realized British beverages played a role. As beer grew more expensive because of a malt tax, poor people had to turn to polluted water, until tea became their new choice.
Comparing with Japan, which also had large cities but higher disease deaths, Macfarlane found the difference. The British drank tea more widely, which helped control diseases.
This theory isn’t just about drinks — it’s a reminder that history’s big moments hinge on surprising, interconnected factors. A simple daily habit may have helped start an industrial revolution, showing how the ordinary can shape the extraordinary.
4. Why were tea and beer helpful for Britain’s Industrial Revolution
A. They created more job opportunities for poor people.
B. They helped reduce the risk of water-borne diseases.
C. They improved the taste of daily drinking water.
D. They pushed the development of medical technology.
5. What made poor people turn to unsafe water before tea became popular
A. The high cost of beer due to a malt tax. B. The poor quality of beer on the market.
C. The wide spread of serious illnesses. D. The lack of safe drinking water sources.
6. What can we infer from the Britain-Japan comparison
A. Japan consumed less tea than Britain at that time.
B. Japan had fewer urban residents than Britain then.
C. Drinking habits influenced disease control.
D. Industrialization led to cleaner cities in Britain.
7. What is the main idea of the text
A. How tea and beer may have contributed to the Industrial Revolution.
B. Why Britain had a faster population growth in the 17th century.
C. The important role of healthy drinks in daily life.
D. Different factors leading to industrialization worldwide.
C
When it comes to most new technologies, early adopters tend to be the people who know and understand the tools the best.
New research suggests that with artificial intelligence, the opposite seems to be true.
“When you don’t really get what’s going on under the hood, AI creating poems or recipes seems amazing, even magical,” says Stephanie Tully, one of the study’s authors at the University of Southern California Marshall School of Business. “And that feeling can actually increase people’s willingness to use it.”
That finding challenges the common assumption. “In other domains, like wine, the people who know the most about it are wine lovers,” says Tully. “With AI, it’s the contrary.”
Across seven studies, the researchers assessed people’s AI literacy (知识) using different methods, including a 25-item questionnaire they created and a 17-question test created using two AI systems.
In one experiment, the researchers recruited 234 undergraduates, assessed their AI literacy and then asked them to consider writing four papers on topics ranging from how the assassination (刺杀) of Archduke Franz Ferdinand led to World War I to a poem about falling in love in Venice. The participants were then asked if they would or wouldn’t use an AI system to help them complete the assignment and to what extent. The students who scored lower on AI literacy were more likely to use AI to complete the assigned tasks than people with higher AI literacy who, meanwhile, recognized that AI is an algorithm (算法), not magic, the researchers say.
“Understanding that AI is just pattern-matching is an effective approach, which wipes out the emotional experience,” suggests Gil Appol, another co-author.
8. What makes people more willing to use AI
A. An awareness of human limitations.
B. An understanding of new technologies.
C. A feeling of awe regarding AI’s ability.
D. A sense of despair for lack of knowledge.
9. Which statement agrees with the findings of the new study
A. Writing poems is a behavior unique to humans.
B. Adopting AI requires information from other domains.
C. Knowing AI the most brings an attachment to it.
D. Having less knowledge of AI raises the chances to use it.
10. What is Gil Appel’s remark about
A. Urgency to strengthen confidence in humans.
B. Advice to remove unreasonable impressions.
C. Call to better human emotional control.
D. Action to change AI’s dominant role.
11. Which of the following sections is the text probably selected from
A. Science. B. Entertainment.
C. Literature. D. Engineering.
D
Astronomers have just spotted one of the biggest spinning structures ever seen. A string of 14 galaxies spanning 5.5 million light-years is rotating (旋转) together, located inside a spinning chunk of the cosmic web (宇宙网). Such a consistent direction of spin is unexpected and could complicate major upcoming surveys.
Scientists found the structure in data from the MeerKAT radio telescope. Later, they saw that members on one end of the string were moving toward us, while those on the other end were moving away. They also found that outside its central line, the main part races around at some 250,000 mph (400,000 km/h). The galaxies are full of neutral hydrogen, the raw material for star formation. Because hydrogen is easily disturbed, it acts like a sign, revealing the flow of gas and momentum (动量). That makes this structure a live demo of how galaxies grow, acquiring material and spinning up over time.
What surprised the team is that most of the galaxies are also turning around their own center in the same direction as the whole structure is spinning. Astronomers generally think galaxies rotate randomly. But in this case, “We believe this is caused by the gravitational interaction between the galaxies and the structure,” says Madalina Tudorache, the leading researcher. More specifically, the structure is passing its spin on to the galaxies through “a transfer of angular momentum (角动量).” This provides important clues to how a galaxy’s environment affects its formation and evolution.
Giant spinning structures such as this could throw a wrench into current and future cosmological surveys. Present projects study the universe by exploiting the fact that light from cosmic objects is bent to Earth by the gravity of matter it passes, which can make galaxies appear to be lined up. But if galaxies are actually lined up, it could produce a false signal, making our maps incorrect. “This structure breaks our assumption that all galaxies are randomly oriented,” says Naomi Robertson, a research associate at the University of Edinburgh, adding that such observations help astronomers test data analysis methods and explore the cosmic web more fully by combining multiple datasets.
12. What do we know about the newly discovered structure
A. It is the largest spinning structure ever found.
B. It consists of 14 galaxies moving in random directions.
C. Its galaxies spin in the opposite direction of the structure.
D. Its galaxies contain neutral hydrogen uncovering gas flow.
13. What can be learned from Tudorache’s words about the discovery
A. It happens by chance and has little scientific significance.
B It results from the structure transferring its spin to the galaxies.
C. It proves that galaxies always spin in the same direction.
D. It challenges all existing theories about galaxy formation.
14. What does the underlined phrase “throw a wrench into” in the last paragraph mean
A. Completely destroy. B. Cause problems for.
C. Slightly enhance. D. Provide support for.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. How do Galaxies Get Their Spin B. Will Lined-up Galaxies Ruin Space Surveys
C. Giant Spinning Galaxies Found in Cosmic Web D. Studying Galaxies Through the Cosmic Web

47. 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。
“But you don’t even like to have breakfast in a restaurant,” said my husband Tim. I didn’t know why I attempted the Wendy’s Breakfast Matching Game online. Ironically, on my first try, I matched three images. Up popped: CONGRATULATIONS! YOU WON FREE BREAKFAST FOR A YEAR!
Soon, a booklet of coupons arrived — free breakfast every week for a year. What Tim said was true. I preferred cereal and yogurt in my pajamas at home, not dressed up in public. I didn’t even drink coffee. Tim suggested using the drive-through (免下车服务), which seemed perfect for a retiree like me who loved solitude. However, I realized I hadn’t made a new friend or changed out of sweatpants until noon in ages. What if I used this win as a challenge to change my habits
The next morning, dressed in my blue jean jacket, I went inside the restaurant. When I presented my coupon for a free breakfast, the manager was excited to have a local winner, introducing me to the entire crew. Eating in public wasn’t that distasteful; it was fun! Hence, I formed a plan: fifty-two weeks, fifty-two selfies in different locations, and fifty-two attempts to meet someone new.
Through the year, I celebrated everything from National Hero Day to Halloween with creative costumes and themed selfies. Though I didn’t meet crowds of strangers because most customers used mobile orders, I bonded deeply with the breakfast crew just by being curious about them. Donnie, the manager, always greeted me by name, asking, “What special day is this one ” They learned my story, and I learned theirs.
As the year ended, Donnie surprised me with an official Wendy’s T-shirt for my final selfie. I realized how much I would have missed had I chosen the drive-through. I wasn’t such an introvert (内向的人) after all. I had conquered my fear of social interaction and transformed a simple meal into a weekly celebration of life. Now, whenever Tim suggests eating out, I eagerly grab my blue jean jacket, ready to make new friends.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右;
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The morning of my fifty-third week arrived, but this time, there was no coupon in my hand.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Sitting at my favorite table, I watched the breakfast crew busily serving customers.
