The recent opening of a new exhibition building at the Sanxingdui Museum, in Guanghan, in Sichuan province, made the place an instant tourist hot spot. The bronze heads, golden masks, holy trees and various statues reveal the mysterious faces of a culture (date) back more than 3,000 years.
For those who cannot make it to Guanghan, the extensive site of Sanxingdui is located, an immersive exhibition (equip) with digital technology, titled "Hello Sanxingdui", offers an alternative means to be amazed by the greatness of this Bronze Age culture.

4、In our small town, there is a tradition that neighbors help each other. This was never more1 than when one of our treasured residents, Mrs. Jenkins, faced a sudden health2. She had been an active member of the community for decades but recently was diagnosed with a3 that has made it difficult for her to perform her daily activities4.
Her children, who lived far away, were unable to5 her around the clock. The cost of professional6 was a burden that weighed heavily on her limited retirement savings. The situation was critical, but the community7.
A local resident, who is a close friend of Mrs. Jenkins, launched (发起) a(n)8. She called on the community to find ways to9 her. After several discussions, the community made a plan. They decided to10 a community fund specifically for Mrs. Jenkins' care. The response from the community was11. People donated what they could, from small to large sums, so the12 began to grow. Some committed to a regular13, while others, like myself, chose to make a one-time donation.
The story of Mrs. Jenkins and the community is a proof of the power of14 and the strength of a community that comes together in times of need. It shows that despite the difficulty, when we15, we can make a significant difference in the lives of those who need us the most.

5、Part of being a friend to someone means sometimes helping them through a hard time. And the rejected often turn to their closest friends for comfort and direction. While it may be a difficult task, there are various ways to make our friends feel better.
They will have successes in the future, and while you understand that what they're feeling now is very real and upsetting, it will fade with time. You can advise them to use positive affirmations instead of negative self-talk and remind them that rejection is an opportunity to grow and learn.
One of the worst mistakes we can make as friends is to try to make someone feel better by overshadowing (弱化) their experience with our own. But you had better not cover it with your own. This can make them feel like their feelings are ignored. Don't tell them to "just get over it" either.
When a person has suffered a rejection, it can feel like that is the only thing happening in their life at the moment. While it's okay for someone to focus on a rejection a little bit, turning completely inward and wallowing is a slippery slope into depression. Take them to a movie or for a hike. Spend an afternoon in your favorite shops trying out new looks or volunteering for a cause you both feel passionately about.
A. You can relate to your friend's experience.
B. You can help them improve the bad situation.
C. Being rejected can feel like the end of the world.
D. Get your friend out of the house to do something they enjoy.
E. Your friend has a right to feel upset in this moment of rejection.
F. When they're nervous, they can't see that good things are still possible.
G. Remind your friend that what they're feeling now will eventually pass.

6、A good gift is one that is more valuable for the receiver than it is for the giver. But most gifts destroy value rather than create it. Think of the Christmas-tree-shaped cookie jar that cost your aunt $89 but is worthless than zero to you, posing a difficult question: Do you throw it right into the bin or wait a couple of months? The economist Joel Waldfogel calls this discrepancy (差异) the "dead weight loss" of gifts, and estimates that, on average, it is from 10 percent to a third of a gift's price.
One explanation for the dead weightloss is a mismatch between desirablity and feasibility(可行性). Consider a gadget that is useful(high desirability) but difficult to set up and time-consuming to use(low feasibility). Researchers have found that givers usually focus on desirability, and receivers are more aware of feasibility. Your friend who bought you a fancy wearable fitness tracker probably thought it was a really cool and helpful gift; to you, it seems like a major headache to figure out, requires an app download and a monthly cost, and offers data that will very likely make you feel terrible about yourself. That's why it is still sitting in your drawer in its original package.
Another happiness-killing mismatch can be between the receiver's first reaction (反应) and their long-term satisfaction. As Anna Goldfarb noted in The Atlantic a few weeks ago, givers tend to look for "reaction-maximizing (最大化) gifts" (such as the wife's over-the-top reaction to the car) as opposed to "satisfaction-maximizing gifts." Once the giver is not present to see the receiver's reaction, the receiver might not actually be that excited about socks with her best friend's face on them.
Someone looking for a big reaction might want to buy a wildly expensive gift, which causes its own emotional problems. In the worst cases, they may even be trying to control you, or trick you into doing them a favor later. Either way, receiving a gift that's too nice might make you feel guilty (愧疚的). According to one 2019 survey from Compare Cards, 46 percent of respondents felt guilty for being unable to give a gift worth as much as the one they received.
In truth, the biggest benefit to most gift giving is to the giver herself. Generosity is truly away to buy happiness. As my colleague Michael Norton and his co-authors showed in the journal Science in 2008, although spending money on oneself is weakly related to happiness, spending money on others significantly raises the giver's well-being (幸福). Neuroscientists have shown that charitable giving to others provides pleasure in one of the same ways that alcohol and certain drugs do. (Maybe this is the real reason Santa is so joyful.)
(1)、What does "deadweight loss" of gifts in paragraph 1 refer to?A、The value the gift creates rather than destroys. B、The money the giver spends on a meaningful gift C、The good-will and thoughtfulness of the gift giver. D、The loss of the gift value in the eyes of the receiver.(2)、How would the receiver describe the "fancy wearable fitness tracker" as a gift?A、Fashionable and practical B、Inexpensive and worthless. C、Desirable and satisfactory. D、Unfriendly and troublesome.(3)、When might the receiver give the over-the-top reaction?A、When the receiver gets something wildly expensive. B、When the giver gives something he himself truly likes. C、When the giver is present to see the receiver's reaction. D、When the receiver gets socks with the best friend's face on them.(4)、What can we learn from the text?A、Presents are generally terrible. B、It is in giving that givers receive. C、Gift-giving is in most case saw in-win situation. D、The greatest gift you can give is your time and attention. -
7、The maker of ChatGPT recently announced its next move into generative artificial intelligence. San Francisco-based OpenAI's new text-to-video generator, called Sora, is a tool that instantly makes short videos based on written commands, called prompts.
Sora is not the first of its kind. Google, Meta and Runway are among the other companies to have developed similar technology. But the high quality of videos displayed by OpenAI—some released after CEO Sam Altman asked social media users to send in ideas for written prompts surprised observers.
A photographer from New Hampshire posted one suggestion, or prompt, on social media. The prompt gave details about a kind of food to be cooked, gnocchi (意大利团子), as well as the setting, an old Italian country kitchen. The prompt said, "An instructional cooking session for homemade gnocchi, hosted by a grandmother, a social media influencer, set in a rustic (土气的) Tuscan country kitchen." Altman answered a short time later with a realistic video that showed what the prompt described.
The tool is not yet publicly available. OpenAI has given limited information about how it was built. The company also has not stated what imagery and video sources were used to train Sora. At the same time, the video results led to fears about the possible moral and social effects.
The New York Times and some writers have taken legal actions against OpenAI for its use of copyrighted works of writing to train ChatGPT. And OpenAI pays a fee to The Associated Press, the source of this report, to license its text news file. OpenAI said in a blog post that it is communicating with artists, policymakers and others before releasing the new tool to the public.
The company added that it is working with "red teamers", people who try to find problems and give helpful suggestions, to develop Sora. "We are working with red teamers-express in areas like misinformation and hateful content—who will be adversarially (对抗地) testing the model," the company said. "We're also building tools to help detect misleading content such as a detection classifier that can tell when a video was generated by Sora."
(1)、What makes Sora impressive?A、Its rapid development. B、Its remarkable video quality. C、Its moral and social influence. D、Its written commands and prompts.(2)、What's the writing purpose of paragraph 3?A、To give a definition. B、To make a comparison. C、To introduce a topic. D、To present an example.(3)、What can we infer from the text?A、The public has access to the tool easily. B、Some disagreements over Sora have arisen. C、Much information has been given on how Sora was built. D、Open AI have been approved for using copyrighted works.(4)、What is the author's attitude towards Sora?A、Objective. B、Subjective. C、Doubtful. D、Critical. -
8、A man rides at full speed on a single-wheeled bike, leaning back on a seat fixed above a recycled tyre (轮胎) as he performs wheelie (杂技). This machine is just one of many crazy inventions from Make It Extreme, a You Tube channel run by Michael Mavros and George Shiailis, two best friends who use old materials to create unique and innovative mechanical projects.
The partners of this DIY design make the inventions to promote the joys of mechanical engineering and inspire creativity in others.
On Make It Extreme, they transform everyday objects and vehicles into extreme versions of themselves, pushing creative boundaries in the process. They build and design their projects, film and edit the entire process, then finally showcase the results.
"By passionately crafting furniture, engines, tools, toys and vehicles while using our imagination, we try to offer innovative solutions to various mechanical challenges," explains Mavros, "We've shared this passion since our early years, and now, through our channel, we share it with millions of other people in an easily understandable way."
For its 100th video, Make It Extreme introduced the Monotrack bike, constructed entirely from recycled and old materials. They utilized a 100cc two-stroke engine from an old scooter (摩托车), cutting the sidewalls of a used car tyre and fitting it around a recycled motor. The bike reflects their commitment to sustainability and creativity, purely for the joy and curiosity it brings.
"The idea for the Monotrack bike came from an old wartime photo where we saw a similar vehicle," says Mavros, "Our crea tions are often inspired by things we've encountered before. For example, the Monowheel, where a person sits inside a huge wheel, was inspired by similar vehicles from decades ago, and our tank chair stemmed from the idea of creating an accessible adventure vehicle for people with limited mobility."
Make It Extreme now has almost two million subscribers who are eager to tune in every month to see the partners' latest invention. And Mavros promises that 2024 will see them create their most daring project yet.
(1)、Why do Mavros and Shiailis run Make It Extreme?A、To make profits. B、To earn popularity. C、To develop hobby. D、To awaken innovation.(2)、What do we think of their inventions according to paragraph 5?A、Practical. B、Eco-friendly. C、Costly. D、Convenient.(3)、What is paragraph 6 mainly about?A、Why the old things were used. B、Where the Monowheel was found. C、What their inspirations originated from. D、How the Monotrack bike was invented.(4)、What can we learn from Mavros and Shiailis in the text?A、Nothing is impossible. B、One good turn deserves another. C、A rolling stone gathers no moss. D、Constant dripping wears away the stone. -
9、Poems for high schoolers
If
The poem is written by Rudyard Kipling. In this poem, a father talks of several values and advises his son to live with moderation and constraint (克制) to continuously maintain calm and avoid overreacting. The poem is full of positivity for personal growth in difficult times. Anyone struggling with a lack of desire in life can still benefit from it.
The Laughing Heart
The poem advises readers to take control of their own life and make the most of their time. At the beginning of the poem, Charles Bukowski talks about how one shouldn't let others take their "light" out of them. Bukowski says that once you begin to show up for your own life, "amazing" things will begin to happen to you. The Laughing Heart, which focuses on risk and making decisions in life, is attractive to youth as it serves as an encouragement to them to stand up for themselves in difficult times.
Fifth Grade Autobiography
Through the poem, Rita Dove discusses the good memories of her most significant life influences as a child. By using language and pictures, she recalls how great and significant her family is as she looks at a photograph. Based on Dove's poetry, an excellent activity would be to ask children to select a photo that's significant to them and write their own Fifth Grade Autobiography.
The Rose That Grew From Concrete
The poem is about achieving our life goals despite the challenges we experience along the road. In this poem, Tupac Shakur compares himself to a neglected rose who went from being a marginalized (被边缘化的) teenager to one of the most influential singers the world has ever known. The poem will inspire readers to focus and realize their dreams.

13、Most people who keep animals choose to have dogs, cats or fishes. But Recep Mirzan keeps a1 animal on his farm in Western Turkey.

15、Many high school students consider a college education useless. Therefore, they choose not to go to college. If you're one of them, think again. Here are some reasons why you should go to college and receive a good education there.
Schools and universities are the first sources of knowledge. We take that knowledge later on to build our careers after graduation. More knowledge will be gained after you start working, but without an education, that job will not be within easy reach. Knowledge leads to knowledge.
While limited within the walls of the educational institutions, we openly explore other cultures of the world. We come to know that ours is not the only culture. Other cultures have valuable insights to share, enriching our own. Education also makes us want to travel and interact with various cultures, broadening our horizons.
When there's a downturn (衰退) in the economy, those who attended college will be more likely to find a new job than those who only finished grade school and have a limited skills set. The more education you have, the more chances you will get to improve the quality of your life as you have a better job and earn a higher salary.
When you're skillful and knowledgeable, you get to "rub knees" with people of similar backgrounds and tastes. It means a good education leads to excellent networking. Good networking can benefit you a lot in your later life.
A good education makes you a more interesting person. You can talk about ideas and events instead of just other people and what's on sale in stores. An educated person doesn't gossip, having a preference to discuss ideas and listen to what other people have to say.
(1)、Paragraph 2 mainly shows that going to college allows you to ______.A、have a chance to study abroad B、become a more interesting person C、keep gaining knowledge D、realize the importance of knowledge(2)、According to Paragraph 3, what does going to college mean?A、Having a greater understanding of different cultures. B、Being limited within the walls of a college. C、Valuing our own culture much more. D、Thinking differently from others.(3)、By giving the example of a downturn in the economy, what does the author want to show?A、A good education can improve your tastes. B、A good education sometimes means nothing. C、A good education means you will not lose your job. D、A good education allows you to keep a high quality of life.(4)、What is the text mainly about?A、Sources of knowledge. B、Benefits of attending college. C、The disadvantages of not being educated. D、The reason why some people think college useless. -
16、Art is everywhere. Any public space has been carefully designed by an artistic mind to be both functional and beautiful. Then why is art still widely considered "the easy subject" at school, insignificant to wider society, a waste of time and effort?
Art can connect culture with commercial products; art generates money and holds significant emotional and cultural value within communities. When people attend a concert, they are paying for music, maybe even hotel rooms, meals, and transport, but they also gain an incredible experience.
What's more, the arts can bring communities together, reducing loneliness and making people feel safer. Social bonds are created among individuals when they share their arts' experiences through reflection and discussion, and their expression of common values.
The arts clearly have a pretty positive impact on physical and psychological health. It is found that people who frequent cultural places or participate in artistic events are more likely to gain good health compared to those who do not; more engagement with the arts is linked to a higher level of people's well-being. The Public Health discovered that music and art, when used in hospitals, help to improve the conditions of patients by reducing stress, anxiety and blood pressure.
Children who are involved with the arts make greater achievements in their education: those engaged with drama have greater literary ability while others taking part in musical practice exhibit greater skills in math and languages. Kids with preference for the arts have a greater chance of finding employment in the future. Participating in the arts is essential for child development; encouraging children to express themselves in constructive ways could help to form healthy emotional responses in later life.
Vital to human life, art is celebrated and used across the world. Life without art would be boring, for art is a part of what makes us human.
(1)、Art products differ from most other commercial products because _______.A、their prices may climb up as time passes B、most people purchase them for collection C、they are more expensive and less accessible D、they have both commercial and cultural values(2)、By sharing their arts experiences, community members can ________.A、develop a stronger tie between them B、keep the community safe from illnesses C、learn to appreciate their own works of art D、offer honourable solutions to their problems(3)、How does kids' engagement with the arts benefit them?A、It helps to make responsible people out of them. B、It inspires their creativity in designing their future career. C、It promotes their academic performance and emotional growth. D、It gives them more confidence in exhibiting their learning skills.(4)、What is the best title for this passage?A、How Art Cures Our Hearts B、How Art Benefits Communities C、Art: A Bridge Between Cultures D、Art: A Blessing to Humankind -
17、Hannah Levine decided she wanted to give hugs to all of the children and families in need at local hospitals.
Because she couldn't give them hugs one by one, Levine, then a sixth-grader, decided she would use her talents (才能) to do the next best thing. She began to knit (编织) hats, scarves, and blankets for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House at Stanford. Her creations also went to Bundle of Joy, a programme that provides newborn baby items for families in need, and to Knitting Pals by the Bay, a local organisation that provides hand-knitted caps to cancer patients.
"I love to knit, and I thought it would be a great idea to make all these handmade items for kids and adults who need them. It would be like a hug for them," Levine explained.
Levine started the project about a year ago. "I think it's just really fun to do, and it keeps me busy," said Levine, now 13.
Once she got started, Levine realised that her project could be much bigger than the goods she was able to produce with just her own hands. So she sent emails to her school and communities, asking for knitted donations (捐赠物) to the project, she named "Hannah's Warm Hugs". She also posted advertisements at Starbucks and other locations in her area. The warm goods began to pour in.
"It was amazing; more strangers than people she knew started dropping donations at our door," said Levine's mother, Laura Levine. "We ended up with this huge box of items she was donating."
The knitted items numbered in the hundreds. Levine made her first round of donations around Hanukkah (an eight-day Jewish holiday in November or December) and later received thank-you letters from the organisations. Levine is still knitting, and she said the project will continue.
"It has turned into a bigger thing than she had thought," her mum said. "It made her feel pretty good; it made us feel pretty good."
(1)、Hannah Levine knitted hats, scarves and blankets ________.A、to earn some pocket money B、to raise money for cancer patients C、for children and families in difficulty D、for the homeless in her neighbourhood(2)、What can the underlined part "pour in" in Paragraph 5 best be replaced by?A、Take off. B、Go out. C、Flood in. D、Break in.(3)、What would be Laura Levine's attitude towards Hannah Levine's project?A、Optimistic but worried. B、Proud and supportive. C、Worried but doubtful. D、Unsatisfied and uncaring.(4)、What would be the best title for the text?A、Be Ready to Lend a Helping Hand B、Start a Project to Show Your Support C、A 13-year-old Girl Becomes the Best Knitter D、A Teen Turns Knitting Hobby into Heartwarming Project -
