Weems, who directed

9、the creative writing division of the New Jersey Governors School of the Arts. He hired me to teach poetry to a group of gifted high school students.When I met the group, in contrast to what past teachers had done, I proposed that we run a poetry stand, which would be like a country lemonade stand, e

10、xcept that people would be coming for poems. Whatever customers asked for, the students would write.The group were willing to go with my idea, though they had questions. Would we collect money at the poetry stand? No. What if there were no customers? Its part of the risk. What if we had nothing to s

11、ay on the topic they gave us? You will, and Ill train you.A few times a day, whenever we had a little extra time in the writing studio, I asked my students to turn to a clean sheet of paper and I gave them an assumed poetry-stand poem request. I tried to get the students into the habit of asking for

12、 specifics and authenticity.On Thursday morning came the big day on Palmer Square. We set up the tables and chairs beside the place. The foot traffic to and fro was a sight that might have pleased Walt Whitman: people of all ages and races. People slowed tentatively (试探性地) at the sign offering free

13、poetry. A woman wheeling a stroller became our first customer to have someone write for her kid on the subject of candy. An Asian woman asked if the poets could do haiku. A man told us that he only spoke Spanish. So we brought Ricky, a Latino kid to take his order and returned with a poem in Spanish

14、. The man couldnt contain his smile.By 4:30, when it was time to leave, customers stood in line, wanting to know when we would be returning. I watched and their enthusiasm made me wonder about the place of poetry in the lives of ordinary Americans.4What can we know about the author from the passage?

15、AHe followed in the former teachers footsteps.BHe guided his students to create poems at will.CHe prepared his little poets well for the activity.DHe found his advice unpopular with his students.5What does the underlined word “contain” in Paragraph 5 mean?AInclude.BControl.CWear.DReturn.6What can we

16、 infer about the activity from the passage?AThe appeal of poetry was beyond imagination.BThe students made a fortune by trading their poems.CThe teacher invited Walt Whitman to compose a poem.DThe students suffered a cold shoulder of the passers-by.7Which of the following can be a suitable title for

17、 the text?AA Poetry StandBAn English Poetry DayCA Poem ExchangeDA Memorable Poem LectureThe latest photo taken at Chinas well-known Tsinghua University became a hit, where a student was seen using his laptop while riding on a bike. The moral of the story is that wasting time on things like commuting

18、 between university facilities becomes unacceptable, since the pressure to graduate top of the class is so intense.Into the real world, working extra hours is a common practice of Chinas most brilliant figures in technology. In finite overtime, premature balding (秃顶) and hospital admissions are all

19、but part of standard professional life for the nations brightest. Similarly, blue-collar workers dont have it easier. Food delivery riders are reportedly trapped by an algorithm (算法) that automatically works out the best delivery time for app users, and never minds if the workers are at the risk of

20、road accidents.People are wondering whether all this hard work really makes life better. Actually, it may well be making things harder for everyone, but there doesnt seem to be a way out. A popular sense of being stuck in an ever so exhausting rat race where everyone loses has given rise to a new bu

21、zzword: neijuan (involution). The Chinese word, neijuan, is made up of the characters for “inside” and “rolling”, and is understood as something that spirals in on itself, a process that traps participants who know they wont benefit from it.“From a sociological point of view, involution is unavoidab

22、le because of societys structural shifts,” said Yan Fei, a professor of sociology at Tsinghua University, “One big question for the middle class is how to remain in the middle class. Meanwhile, the lower class still hopes to change their fate. But the middle and upper classes arent so much looking u

23、pward, and they are marked by a deep fear of falling downward. Their greater fear is perhaps losing what they already have,” he explained.8Why is the photo of a student in Tsinghua University mentioned in Paragraph 1?ATo clarify the writing purpose.BTo present an argument.CTo introduce the topic of

24、the passage.DTo describe a character.9What can we learn from the passage?AIs common to work overtime in the real world.BNeijuan reflects the fierce competition in China.CFood delivery riders benefit a lot from the apps.DPeople live a better life due to their great efforts.10What can be inferred from

25、 what Yan Fei said in the last paragraph?AThe lower class suffers a deep fear of falling downward.BThe middle class tries to be a member of the upper class.CThe greatest fear of every class is to lose what they already have.DInvolution is inescapable in the development of society for each class.11Fr

26、om which column of the newspaper can the passage be taken?ASociety.BEconomy.CEntertainment.DTourism.Mining rare-earth (稀土) elements (REEs) has long been considered a dirty business, as it can lead to water and soil pollution, but a new technology developed by Chinese scientists may change the trend,

27、 offering a greener alternative for the industry.REEs, especially heavy ones, are an essential part of many high-tech devices, from the engines of electric cars and smartphones, to LED lights. More than 90% of the global heavy KEF demand is sourced from ion-adsorption deposits (离子吸附沉积物), which form

28、within weathering erasts (硬壳). However, conventional mining applies overmuch usage of chemical agents to recover REEs front these deposits, not only exhibiting low efficiency but also polluting the environment.Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences Guangzhou Institute of Geochemistry propo

29、sed a new approach in the journal Nature Sustainability earlier this month, showing that employing electrokinetic mining techniques to extract (提取) REEs from weathering crusts can be both clean and efficient. Using this approach, researchers generated an electric field by putting electrodes (电极) on

30、the top and bottom of a volume of soil. The electrokinetic effect can speed up the migration of REEs, reducing the need for harmful chemical agents.To evaluate the practicality of the new method, they carried out several experiments of different scales. Results suggested that the new method outperfo

31、rmed traditional mining techniques. For instance, the scaled-up experiments achieved a recovery efficiency of 96% within 67 hours by using electrokinetics. Using the conventional technique, it was only 62% at 130 hours.The difference between the impact of the old and the new approaches was even more

32、 significant in an on-site field test: Using electrokinetics can achieve a recovery efficiency higher than 90%, an 80% decrease in polluting agent usage and a 70% reduction in impurity.The study confirmed that this novel electrokinetic technology enabled green, efficient and selective recovery of RE

33、Es. Researchers also noted that the new method has great potential for use in the mining of other critical metals under conditions in which the metals exist in ionic states.12Why is the new technology referred to as a “greener alternative” for REE mining?AIt is based on cleaner energy.BIt achieves a

34、 higher recovery efficiency.CIt recovers REEs from weathering crusts.DIt depends less on the use of chemical agents.13How does the author present the practicality of the new technology?ABy analyzing causes.BBy listing examples.CBy providing test results.DBy giving instructions.14What can we know abo

35、ut the new technology?AIt contributes to the extraction of purer REEs.BIt causes REEs to be mined at a higher cost.CIt is widely adopted in mining critical metals.DIt frees REE mining of the impact on nature.15What is the text mainly about?AA new technology with great potential in mining metals.BA g

36、reener REE mining technology with higher efficiency.CThe difficulties in mining REEs from ion-adsorption deposits.DThe differences between conventional and new REE mining methods.二、七选五Workout fads (狂热) come and go, but virtually no other exercise program is as lasting as yoga(瑜伽). It originated from

37、 India and its been around for more than 5,000 years. _16_17_ Yoga does more than burn calories and tone muscles. Its a total mind-body workout that combines strengthening and stretching poses with deep breathing and meditation or relaxation. Research shows yoga can help manage stress, improve mood,
