Four Must-see Museum Exhibitions in2024
LaToya Ruby Frazier, “Monuments of Solidarity”
Museum of Modern Art, New York
May 12—September 7
Museum of Modern Art will present a range of works, including photography, text, and moving images, from the
artist LaToya Ruby Frazier’s career. Frazier’s first museum show, the exhibition spans over 20 years and highlights
her ongoing interest in revitalizing and preserving overlooked and erased stories from America’s post-industrial era, in
particular, stories of gender, race, inequality and labor.
Jenny Holzer, “Light Line”
Guggenheim Museum, New York
May 17—September 29
The museum is revisiting the artist’s influential practice with “Light Line”, an expanded version of the landmark
show. The 2024 exhibition will include some of Holzer’s earliest and rarely shown works alongside new text that has

In the summer of 2020, a wildfire caused by lightning tore through 43,000 acres of Cima Dome in the Mojave
National Preserve in California, which is home to the world’s largest Joshua tree forest, and destroyed 1.3 million
Joshua trees-that’s about a quarter of the trees. Repairing the forest would not be easy. But a special solution was
adopted: using camels to help restore the unique desert trees.
During the ice age, giant sloths (巨型树懒) used to feed on the trees and this helped spread the seeds. But these
sloths are extinct and now small mammals (哺乳动物) that are less effective have taken up the role. “Joshua tree
seeds don’t spread very quickly,” said Debra Hughson, who worked at the Mojave National Preserve. “They don’t
move very fast or they don’t move very far with just small mammals around.”
The plan was to restore the Cima Dome area first because its higher elevation allows the trees to survive the
effects of climate change. Hughson and her professional volunteer team began to plant seedlings (幼苗) in the burned
area. However, what had been considered effective in theory didn’t really work. The area is a wilderness and even the
hike to it takes several hours.
That’s where Herbie, Sully and Chico came to the rescue.
The idea of using the three camels came from Nance Fite, a 70-year-old volunteer at the reserve. When she heard
about the restoration project, she made efforts to convince the Park Service to let the camels help. She also eventually
persuaded her friend, Jennifer Lagusker, who owns the camels to bring them to the reserve. The three camels have
been helping in the restoration process since 2021 and around 3,500 young Joshua trees have been planted. The
camels helped to carry water and the seedlings on the long trips through the desert reserve.
After this work is finished, the Park Service will focus on a different area that was destroyed by the wildfire. The
camels will be ready to help out wherever they are needed.
24. What happened to the Mojave National Preserve in 2020?
A. Joshua trees in this area went extinct.
B. Lightning caused damage to its camels.
C. A wildfire swept across the whole reserve.
D. Its desert trees encountered a natural disaster.
25. What do the underlined words “the role” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Spreading the seeds. B. Restoring the trees.
C. Helping giant sloths. D. Working for a reserve.
26. Why did the volunteer team’s first attempt turn out ineffective?
A. Hiking was legally forbidden in the wilderness.
B. They had trouble traveling to the Cima Dome area.
C. Few people in the team were willing to plant seedlings.
D. The trees couldn’t survive the effects of climate change.
27. What can we learn from the text?
A. The idea of using camels was initially adopted easily.
B. The Park Service is satisfied with the camels’ work.
C. Nance Fite is responsible for raising the three camels.
D. The restoration project has been followed in many areas.
C
Researchers discovered a new function for a common protein in the brain—a development that throws new light
on the mysteries of the mind and holds promising implications for the treatment of memory loss and post-traumatic
stress disorder (PTSD).
The protein, called RPT6, normally performs necessary housekeeping in the brain’s hippocampus (海马体) by
working as part of a larger protein complex called the proteasome to destroy other proteins. But researchers in the
College of Agriculture and Life Sciences’ School of Animal Sciences recently noticed this protein behaving in a
previously undetected way.
“We have found that RPT6 is capable of this completely different function where it can combine with DNA and
increase the expression of other genes or proteins during memory formation,” said Tim Jarome, associate professor of
neurobiology. “This indicates that RPT6 plays a dual (双重的) role in memory formation, both inside and outside the
proteasome complex.”
Gene expression is critical to memory formation. It helps to build the neural networks needed to form and
strengthen memories. The discovery, published in the Journal of Neuroscience, opens up new avenues for exploration
of how RPT6 functions in the brain and how it can be controlled to improve memory and reduce the harm of memory
disorders like PTSD.
Researchers don’t yet understand why RPT6 has this dual function or how it is helping to control the cells that
form a memory. “There has to be something else that’s working with it to control gene expression,” Jarome said. “We
are trying to understand now how it’s doing that.”
Hopefully, the discovery will be helpful to the ongoing research in Jarome’s lab, which focuses on understanding
and treating memory disorders.
“The discovery of RPT6’s new function is leading us somewhere new in revealing the complexities of the brain
and how we learn and store memories,” said research scientist Kayla Farrell. “We believe that this will help to inform
new directions into understanding how gene expression is controlled during memory. In the long term, this could lead
to potential treatment of controlling and improving memory.”
28. What does Tim Jarome say about RPT6 in paragraph 3?
A. It is a new kind of protein. B. It has little to do with DNA.
C. It can feed most of the cells. D. It affects memory formation.
29. What is still unclear to researchers?
A. What contributes to RPT6’s dual function.
B. The role of gene expression in memory formation.
C. The discovery of RPT6’s dual function in the brain.
D. Whether RPT6 can increase the expression of other genes.
30. What message does Kayla Farrell mainly want to convey?
A. The brain is not complex to explore.
B. The finding is of great significance.
C. The new treatment of memory loss works.
D. The problem of storing memory is serious.
31. Where does the text most probably appear?
A. In a lab report. B. In a chemistry textbook.
C. In a health magazine. D. In a first aid brochure.
D
If you’ve been on BookTok, an online community where readers recommend, review and theorize about their
favorite books, authors and genres, you’ve probably heard of Rebecca Yarros’ Fourth Wing. On BookTok, the release
of Fourth Wing came with hype (炒作) around a mix between romance and fantasy. The novel was published last
May and its sequel (续集) followed just six months later.
But questions came: Are publishers and authors publishing books too quickly, and does this affect the quality of
writing?
On the day of the sequel’s release, Yarros and her publisher, Red Tower Books, were met with much criticism
about her misuse of a language’s grammar in the novel. Many argued that the mistakes could have been avoided if the
publishers had hired someone to proofread (校对) the language.
So what does BookTok have to do with this? It was one of the reasons why within the first week of Fourth Wing
being published, the book quickly shot up to the top of the New York Times Best Sellers list despite criticism.
With the rising readers, it isn’t uncommon for both publishers and authors to use that hype to their advantage.
This was likely a reason why the series, originally including three books, was dragged into a five-book series.
This is kind of what fast fashion is all about. Fast fashion refers to the process of clothing manufacturing that
moves from production/design to stores quickly to keep up with current trends. These pieces are often cheap and
low-quality and sent to stores with the hope of selling out quickly. The same approach used in the publishing world,
thanks to BookTok to some degree, could lead to decreasing book quality when writing and editing aren’t able to
reach their maximum potential.
This isn’t to say that books like Fourth Wing are bad just because they’re hyped. But abandoning developed
work for crowd-pleasers doesn’t do all readers justice. These worries about the quick turnover in the publishing
industry aren’t directed towards independent authors who carefully write, edit and publish themselves, but rather
towards those who overlook the importance of everything that goes into the writing process.
32. Why does the author raise questions in the text?
A. To doubt readers’ judgment. B. To keep the text developing.
C. To highlight BookTok’s advantages. D. To provide background information.
33. What was the situation of Fourth Wing after its release?
A. It enjoyed popularity. B. It faced little criticism.
C. It was publicly rejected. D. It didn’t sell well in stores.
34. Which of the following shows the author’s opinion?
A. Book quality is vital in the publishing industry.
B. Books like Fourth Wing are not good ones.
C. Authors should avoid doing too many duties.
D. BookTok shouldn’t be to blame for fast fashion.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. BookTok Is Misleading Consumers in Reading.
B. Are Those Books Posted Online Worth Reading?
C. Fast Fashion Emerges in the Publishing Industry.
D. Can the Publishing Industry Adapt to Challenges?

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。
It was two weeks before a holiday, and I still hadn’t sent out our holiday cards. Each year, my family gets dozens
of holiday cards from friends and family. I wanted to send some out as well that year—perfect ones.
I decided to make them with a family picture taken by a professional photographer. After dropping off my two
boys at school, I called a local photographer. The photographer told me since there wasn’t much time before the
holiday, he would come on early Sunday morning and told me to have the whole family in white shirts.
Now, not only did I have my usual five million things to do, but I also had to find matching white shirts for my
entire family. My husband was trying to help, but I thought I could juggle (尽量兼顾) everything and fix everything
perfectly. He also suggested wearing our old shirts, but I insisted on getting new ones to ensure the picture was
perfect.
After visiting a bunch of stores, I got perfect white polo shirts. I was able to continue doing all my other errands
(差事) with a smile, knowing that my family was going to look great for the holiday photograph session.
I’m not sure where the rest of the hours went, but when I went to get my younger son to sleep on Saturday night,
I noticed his hair was a complete mess. He needed a haircut! With all my running around, I hadn’t noticed how badly
he needed one. It was 8:00 at night—too late to find a barber. The photographer was coming the next morning.
I took out the scissors I barely used and told my younger son to come into the bathroom where I started to cut his
hair. My son was very cooperative. When I was done, we both knew that the haircut was a disaster! I started to
panic—our holiday cards might be delayed.
My husband offered to help again. I hesitated for seconds and agreed. He asked me to go downstairs and have a
cup of tea while he took care of the situation. My older son also came to help.
