10、给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。AIf you think about World Heritage Sites, you probably think of places associated with ancient art and culture and historical buildings. And of course, many of these are on the World Heritage List (WHL). These include remains of ancient cultures like Cuzco in Peru or the rock c
11、ity of Petra in Jordan as well as old city centers such as Rome in Italy. Also common are places of artistic or cultural significance, like the Stonehenge stone circle in England. But the WHL contains a lot of sites that are not so obvious. Lets look at a few of the more unusual sites on the WHL and
12、 why it is important to preserve them.Citadel of HaitiThese monuments were built at the end of the 19th century when Haiti became independent and the many thousands of black slaves in Haiti were free for the first time. These ex-slaves built the monuments, which the WHL describes as “a universal sym
13、bol of liberty”.Borders of France and SpainThis is an area of great natural beauty and the mountains have many interesting geological formations.But it is also an area of small farms. The WHL has listed the site because it shows us about past European society through its landscape of villages, farms
14、, fields, up land pastures and mountain roads.The Darjeeling Himalayan RailwayThis railway in India was opened in 1881 and is still operating today. It crosses a difficult area of mountain landscape and it is a great example of railway engineering. The WHL says that it is “the first, and still the m
15、ost outstanding, example of a hill passenger railway.”The city of BrasiliaBrasilia is a capital city that was created from nothing in 1956.

18、hen I was a little boy growing up, my Mom, Dad, brothers and I lived in my Nanas old house. It was surrounded by four huge vegetable gardens. And around the house so many flowers were planted. It was so beautiful there in the spring and summer. That wasnt all, though. On the back porch Nana had doze
19、ns of potted plants hanging on hooks. She watered them, talked to them and nurtured them. And in the winter she would carry them all inside and set them on shelves near the windows of our enclosed front porch. There with a little water and a lot of love she kept them alive, green, and growing even d
20、uring the coldest, darkest months.As a boy I was puzzled by all the effort she put into them. I understood the vegetable gardens. They helped to feed the family all winter long. I even understood the flowers around the house. They were pretty and smelled so sweet in the summer months. The reason she
21、 put so much effort into caring for those potted plants, however, eluded me. They didnt give us any food and they rarely had any flowers on them. They remained a mystery to my childs mind.Now as Ive grown older I am beginning to understand why my Nana had those potted plants. It is the same reason I
22、 have so many pictures of sunrises and forests hanging in my home. They remind me during the dark, cold, winter months full of bare trees and yellow grass that light, love, and growth still exist. They remind me that Spring will come again. They remind me that God loves us and is still with us even
23、when the earth doesnt show it.Today I see Nanas potted plants in a new light. They are worth every bit of the love and care she put into them. But what tells me most about light and love is Nana herself. She is light to my soul even in my darkest times. And her love lives on in my heart even if she
24、is in Heaven. May we all learn to love as she loved, shine as she shined, and live as she lived.4. Which of the following is close in meaning to the underlined word “eluded” in paragraph 2?A.

A celebrity biography.CExtremely authentic-looking prosthetic (假体的) eyes can now be 3D-printed in a fraction of the time it would normally take to
27、produce the eyes by hand, scientists demonstrate in a new study.The new technology can create a prosthetic eye in just 90 minutes, compared with the eight hours it would normally take a skilled technician, or ocularist, to produce one by hand. The 3D-printed eyes require five times less labor to mak
28、e than traditional methods, the scientists behind the technology wrote in a new paper published in the journal Nature Communications.The 3D-printed eyes also look more natural than traditional prostheses; this could help improve a patients self-confidence in using the devices. “Patients are very con
29、scious about wearing a prosthesis, and they dont want others to notice,” Johann Reinhard, lead study author and a researcher at the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research in Germany, told us. “With these more realistic eves, it might help them to participate more in society,” he said.Th
30、e new printing approach involves taking a specialized image of a patients empty eye socket and of their healthy eye. These images are then processed and used to draft blueprints that can be sent to be 3D-printed in the lab. These 3D-printed eyes closely replicate the color, size and structure of the
31、 patients healthy eye and are particularly good at capturing the colored part of the eye, known as the iris, and the white part of the eye, called the sclera. Once finished, the eyes take 15 to 30 minutes to be installed by an ocularist, Reinhard said.“About 80% of adults in need of prosthetic eyes
32、could theoretically have one made this way, either due to a birth defect that causes an eye to be small or missing or because theyve lost an eye,” the team said. “However, this wouldnt be possible for all patients, such as those who have a very complex eye socket, as the software wouldnt be able to
33、find a matching shape for the prosthetic eye,” Reinhard said.“More data are needed to see if this technique could also be used to make prosthetic eyes for children,which would require more regulation,” Reinhard said.8. Which of the following words can be best used to describe the 3D-printed eyes?A E
34、co-friendly.B. Time-consuming.C. Fit-of-all.D. Realistic-looking.9. How does the author develop his idea mainly in Paragraph 2?A. By justifying an idea.B. By giving examples.C. By providing evidence.D. By making a comparison.10. Which statement is true about a 3D-printed eye?A. The patients prefer t
35、o show off their prosthetic eyes.B. Every adult in need of a prosthetic eye cant possibly have one.C. It normally takes a skilled technician, or ocularist, to produce one.D. The installment of one is 5 times faster than a traditional prosthetic eye.11. Which of the following would be the best title
36、for the text?A 3D-printed Eyesa Better AlternativeB. 3D Printinga Promising TechnologyC. 3D-printed Eyesa Source of ConfidenceD. Prosthetic Eyesthe Hope for all Blind PeopleDRecent experiments by psychologists at the University of Pittsburgh shed new light on how we learn and how we remember our rea
37、l-world experiences. The research, described in the March 12, 2024 online edition of proceedings of the National Academy of Science, suggests that varying what we study and spacing out our learning over time can both be helpful for memory.“Lots of prior research has shown that learning and memory be
38、nefit from spacing study sessions out,” said Benjamin, a director of the Causal Learning and Decision-Making Lab at Pitt. “For example, if you cram the night before a test, you might remember the information the next day for the test, but you will probably forget it fairly soon,” he added. “In contr
39、ast, if you study the material on different days leading up to the test, you will be more likely to recall it for a longer period of time.”But “spacing effect” has been based on the idea that what you are trying to learn repeats identically each time. Yet that is rarely the case in real life, when s
40、ome features of our experience s may stay the same,but others are likely to change. For example, imagine repeat trips to your local coffee shop. While many features may stay the same on each visit, a new barista (咖啡师) may be serving you. How does the spacing effect work in light of such variation ac
41、ross experiences?In two experiments researchers asked participants to repeatedly study pairs of items and scenes that were either identical on each repetition or in which the item stayed the same but the scene changed each time. Researchers found that spaced learning benefited item memory. But they
42、also found that memory was better for the items that had been paired with different scenes compared with those shown with the same scene each time.“It is hard to provide clear advice for things like studying for a test because the sort of material can be so different,” Benjamin said. “But in theory
43、our findings should be broadly relevant to different sorts of tasks, like remembering someones name and things about them and learning new vocabulary in a foreign language.”12. In what way is “spacing effect” challenged in reality?A. The lack of sufficient learning time.B. The misuse of the memory t
44、echnique.C. The repetition of the learning process.D. The variability of real-life experiences.13. Which behavior is least likely to contribute to long-term memory?A. Integrating spaced repetition into learning.B. Studying intensively the night before a test.C. Linking new information with different
45、 tasks.D. Learning materials against various backgrounds.14. What will Benjamin suggest readers do to remember a new persons name?A. Use the name in conversations shortly after meeting them.B. Repeat the name by associating it with different information.C. Practice item memory to create a mental ima
46、ge with the person.D. Engage in active listening when they are introducing themselves.15. What is the text mainly about?A. The impact of constant spaced study.B. The study of various and self-paced learning.C. The role of varied learning and spaced study.D. The significance of repeated learning sess

In the mid-20th century, minimalism dominated social aesthetic, which laid great emphasis on the idea of less was more. In the late 1960s, postmodernism challenged the ideas of minimalism and embraced a m
