Splendid straw-made miniatures(缩微模型) of classic ancient buildings decorate Xu Jian’s home. They range from
the Yellow Crane Tower to Forbidden City’s turrets. They are all full of details and delicately crafted, tied and arranged
by Xu’s hands from countless sorghum straws(高粱杆).
The craft involves carving grooves(沟槽) into the sorghum straws, before multiple straws are locked together
through those identically sized grooves, Xu says, adding that the sorghum straw art requires a great deal of patience,
especially for works depicting ancient architecture.
Under the influence of his father Xu Yanfeng, Xu Jian got his hands on sorghum straws in childhood. He still
vividly remember show his father would follow a film featuring scenes of Tiananmen Square and then note down all
the details before creating a delicate miniature of it for over three years. The work was then sent to Japan for exhibition
and collected by a local museum. Ever since, many of his father’s works made their way to exhibitions at home and
abroad.
Xu Jian became committed to the art after he reached 19, getting into the depth of the related techniques. “My
father urged me to keep in mind traditional Chinese architectural skills and the history of traditional building protections,
and to apply them to my own sorghum straw artworks,” he says. Through hands-on guidance from his father, Xu Jian’s
skills became increasingly proficient. While inheriting the craftsmanship from his father, Xu Jian has produced his own
creative works.
To date, Xu Jian’s works have been exhibited in over 40 provincial and national-level exhibitions, earning
numerous gold awards. To promote the art, Xu Jian joined hands with the School of Civil Engineering, Hebei University
of Science and Technology, in 2013, and founded a sorghum straw carving and tying base where the art has been
integrated with architectural courses to enhance students’ thinking and practical skills.
24. What’s the feature of Xu Jian’s miniatures?
A. They are made from rare materials.
B. They are skillfully created by hand.
C. They are sold in the Forbidden City.
D. They are identical to ancient buildings.
25. What can we infer about Xu Yanfeng from the text?
A. He showed great perseverance.
B. He was fond of watching films.
C. He won popularity only in China.
D. He attached importance to creativity.
26. Why did Xu Jian establish a sorghum straw carving and tying base?
A. To exhibit his artworks. B. To assist a university.
C. To accommodate artists. D. To spread craftsmanship.
27. Which of the following can best describe Xu Jian?
A. Patient and innovative. B. Generous and productive.
C. Caring and strong-willed. D. Critical and open-minded.

Does work ever leave you feeling stuck in a boring way of life with limited opportunities to be creative? To
thrive(成长), you might want to increase your brain’s flexibility. But is this even possible, and if so, how?
Most jobs require the ability to problem-solve and cope with challenges, at least to a certain extent. Imagine a
teacher who has a new and very nervous student in their class. If that teacher is a flexible thinker, they will be able to
adapt their classroom management, even if they haven’t seen this situation before. According to Leonard Mlodinow,
author of Elastic, flexible thinkers rely on idea generation and imagination—they are willing to experiment and take
risks. “Elastic(灵活的) thinking is what you need when the circumstances change, and you are dealing with something
new. It’s not about following rules.” Therefore, instead of following the typical procedure for handing a new student,
the teacher might come up with a tailored response, based on prediction and previous experience.
So, how can you become a more flexible thinker? According to Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, it’s all about exercising
the brain. One way of doing this, she says, is through exposure to a variety of experiences which make it easier to adjust
to new situations. A lot of companies now consider flexible thinking in the workplace, especially when it comes to
design. Workspaces may have couches where workers can lie down and relax, giving them the space to come up with
and process new ideas. Mlodinow says it’s very important to take time today dream, listen to ideas and concepts you
disagree with and spend time doing activities outside of your comfort zone. This will help you understand multiple
opinions and therefore blossom in many different aspects of your career.
In a word, if you want to make a change, you can become a flexible thinker too, with a little practice.
28. What may a flexible thinker be like?
A. Fond of challenges. B. Good at teaching students.
C. Willing to follow rules. D. Able to make quick responses.
29. How can you become a flexible thinker according to Dr. Barrett?
A. By learning to design. B. By adjusting to new procedure.
C. By doing more exercise. D. By experiencing various situations.
30. Why is it important to do activities outside of your comfort zone?
A. It helps you test your flexibility. B. It helps you succeed in your work.
C. It helps you handle disagreement. D. It helps you identify good opinions.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. A Wonderful Journey to Flexibility B. Changes Make Flexible Thinkers
C. How to Get Out of Boring Life D. Ways to Make a Positive Change
D
Officials of Detroit, Michigan, have equipped apiece of road with new technology designed to charge electric
vehicles (EVs) on the path. The roadway is meant to serve as a demonstration project for the technology, which could
be expanded to larger road systems.
The system uses a series of copper wires placed underneath the road. These wires have the ability to send electricity
through a magnetic field to charge an EV’s battery. Charging can happen while the car is driving or sitting above the
equipment. Elect re on says the electric road system is safe for people and animals walking over it and does not harm
drivers.
The technology was created by Electreon, a developer of wireless charging solutions for EVs. Stefan Tongur,

the wireless signal. “The technology is smart,” Tongur said, and “knows who you are...”
The electrified road stretches about one half-kilometer. It will be used to test and improve the technology in
preparation for wider releases. Tongur said the project aims to “demonstrate how wireless charging unlocks widespread
EV adoption, addressing limited range, grid(电网) limitations, and battery size and costs.” He looks forward to a future
in which, in his words, “EVs are the norm, not the exception.”
Michigan’s Department of Transportation (DOT) signed a five-year agreement with Electreon to develop the
roadway charging system. Offcial shave said they plan to build another electrified stretch of road in another part of the
city. Michigan transportation officials say the wireless-charging roadway project has helped position the state and city
of Detroit as national leaders in EV technology. “In Michigan, we want to stay ahead of the curve,” Michigan DOT
Director Bradley C. Wieferich told the AP.
32. What is the new technology intended to do?
A. Provide power for EVs. B. Demonstrate a project.
C. Expand road systems. D. Improve EVs’ batteries.
33. What can we learn about the electric road system?
A. People and animals may get an electric shock near it.
B. EVs are charged through contact with its copper wires.
C. It charges EVs only if they stay still on the equipment.
D. A special device is needed to pick up its wireless signals.
34. Which of the following can best replace the underlined phrase “stay ahead of the curve”?
A. Develop more smoothly. B. Make progress in the industry.
C. Take the lead in the field. D. Achieve a goal ahead of time.
35. What is Bradley’s attitude towards the project?
A. Skeptical. B. Tolerant. C. Favorable. D. Objective.

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。
I’ve been a leader of a youth group in my community for a number of years. Among all those organized group
activities, the kids’ favorite is called ARK night, with ARK standing for Acts of Random Kindness. A couple of times
a year, on a Sunday night, we go out into our community to perform kind acts for others.
We split into small groups and complete assignments around town. One group typically goes downtown to where
the homeless population is gathered and hands out sandwiches and cold water in the summer, and hand warmers and
hot bread in the winter. Sometimes a group makes posters and goes to local police and fire stations to say thank you.
We often have groups that visit nursing homes and hospitals to share a smile and conversation with the patients.
One time, the small group I was leading left Post-it notes with positive messages on the windshields(挡风玻璃) of
all of the vehicles in the visitors’ parking lot at the hospital. The hope was that someone who was sad or worn out after
visiting a patient would be cheered up by our note.
We had spent the first part of the evening in my home, with the kids writing positive messages on their Positive
notes, things like “Tomorrow is another day.” “Keep smiling.” “Things will get better.” and “Have a nice day.” One
girl had curvy, beautiful handwriting and she decorated the corners of her notes with pretty multi-colored hearts.
After the kids left their notes on all those cars, one girl said to me, “We didn’t see one single person. How will we
know that our notes made a difference?”
“We’ll just have to trust that they did,” I said. Normally, the kids could see the reactions of the people they were
helping, and I could tell they were disappointed at the lack of interaction with people during this assignment. I wondered
about it, too. Would the notes cheer anyone up, or would they be thrown away like the advertisements that are sometimes
left on car windshields?
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。
One day, I no tied a post by a friend of mine on Facebook.
It was one of our Post-it notes!

One day, I noticed a post by a friend of mine on Facebook. She described a series of unpleasant things that had
happened to her over the weekend. “But then,” she added, “I was hurrying to work this morning and stopped quickly in
front of the bank to draw money. There, on the side of the ATM was the nicest little note. It made my day.” She included
a photo of the note.
It was one of our Post-it notes. I recognized it immediately from the little heart on the corner. I have no idea how
that note traveled from the hospital across town to the bank, but I’m pretty sure that it must have encouraged some
strangers. Knowing that what we did was meaningful, I was overwhelmed with joy. I “liked” her post and couldn’t wait
to share this warm story with kids in my group. Small kindness did matter and we would definitely continue with our
