Some libraries use unique architecture to encourage visitors to explore the racks and settle down with a new book, or use flowing libraries to bring books to hard-to-reach populations.
Kansas City Library (Kansas City, Missouri)
Along the south wall of this parking garage’s exterior, visitors are treated to what looks like a huge shelf of books. The building originally served as a bank, which is readily apparent when the library has screenings in its Vault Theater, inside an actual 1925 bank vault.
Stuttgart City Library (Stuttgart, Germany)
Opened in 2011, this nine-story public library designed by Eun Young Yi is characterized by its impressive white-on-white color scheme, its bold cubic shape and its cavernous interior. This cultural center for the city, designed to feel open and full of light, can be entered from any of its four sides, and readers can borrow artwork as well as books.
The Camel Library Service (North Eastern Province, Kenya)
To fight with low literacy rates in the desert of Kenya, the government created a roaming library composed of nine camels to bring books to villages. The library travels four days a week serving the region’s migratory people. Currently the service focuses on children, but with more funding they plan to increase their reach both in distance and the titles they carry.
Macquarie University Library (Sydney, Australia)
A stunning combination of cutting edge and sustainable, this building was made from recycled materials, features a green roof, and was designed to imitate the look of a eucalyptus tree. It is also state of the art, using robot cranes to bring requested books to the front desk.
21. What is the feature of Kansas City Library?
A. It used to be a bank.
B. It has only a book shelf.
C. It served as a park lot.
D. It makes use of robot cranes.
22. Which of the following provides books for migratory people?
A. Kansas City Library.
B. Stuttgart City Library.
C. The Camel Library Service.
D. Macquarie University Library.
23. What’s the purpose of the libraries?
A. To sell the artwork in libraries.
B. To urge people to read books.
C. To show the art of architecture.
D. To keep people staying in the libraries.
B
Herb Chasan could have eased into retirement after spending 18 years teaching math to high school students. But the octogenarian(八旬老人) couldn’t rest. It wasn’t until eight years ago that
he stepped into one of the city’s poorest neighborhoods. He noticed a group of children wandering nearby with nothing to do. He couldn’t shake the image from his mind, and it became the driving force for Hoops and Homework, an after-school program that has provided activities and tutoring for youth up to age 14.
Since 2012, Hoops and Homework has helped more than 300 children who otherwise would have gone home to empty houses or roamed the streets until their parents got off work.Thanks to Mr. Chasan and dedicated staff and volunteers, the children instead have spent industrious afternoons making crafts, playing basketball, learning violin and yoga, gardening, and basking in the attention of a small army of tutors. “Our goal is to help these kids break the cycle of poverty and jail to have a good job, to be a success,” says Mr. Chasan.
Within a few months, he secured $81,000 in town funding to start the program. It takes $170,000 annually to run the center. Hoops and Homework has encouraged people from different parts of the community to volunteer during the after-school sessions because they can tell the children “someday you may be doing that job, we love to have role models come in.”
The program goes beyond helping children. Most of the staff members are bilingual, which enables them to serve the largely Spanish-speaking community. “My English is not good,” says Keila Cupid, a parent who lives close to the center. But the mother of 11-year-old Cupid is clear in expressing her gratitude for Hoops and Homework: “It’s a safe space for my daughter when I am away to my English class.”
24. What motivation made Chasan decide on Hoops and Homework?
A. Homeless neighborhood kids.
B. Parents being engaging in work.
C. The volunteers in the community.
D. Children aimlessly walking around.
25. What activity is available in Hoops and Homework?
A. Making crafts.
B. Baking food.
C. Learning Spanish.
D. Doing extra homework.
26. Which statement does Chasan agree with?
A. More money should go to charity.
B. More people should join in voluntary work.
C. More community centers should be built.
D. More after-school activities should be considered.
27. From the passage, we can infer_______.
A. starting an organization is tough
B. Keila Cupid is studying Spanish
C. parents can benefit from the program
D. the community kids must have a successful career
C
Seth Magle is an urban ecologist in Chicago. In 2021, he started building a network of fellow urban animal lovers from around the world. They’re working to collect information so that it can be compared in different cities.
With the goal of trying to create more wildlife inclusive cities, the network helps reduce human wildlife conflict and increase human wildlife coexistence in the massively urbanizing areas.
In Chicago, Magle and his team have been watching their city’s wildlife for about 10 years. All together, they have over 100 camera traps set up across different types of urban environments from the downtown Loop and city parks to nature preserves and suburb golf courses.
During times of recent extreme heat, we do definitely see animals reduce movement and just stay where they are. It’s probably energetically difficult to move around when it’s so hot. Although this works for a short term in high temperature, it’s not ideal over a longer period because it means less time to search for food or a new mate.
As Magle and his network of urban researchers look toward the future and climate change, they predict bigger shifts. Temperatures everywhere are projected to warm, so wildlife in urban settings and beyond will likely have to shift their normal regions a bit further north to where it feels more comfortable and to what they’re already used to. We don’t have armadillos in Chicago, but we have them in the southern part of the state. And they seem to be migrating north.
Only time will tell how our urban wildlife reacts to these longer term shifts in temperature.
For now, it sounds like urban animals - so long as they’re healthy- are totally capable of handling a few days of extreme heat here and there.
28. What is the aim of the network?
A. To observe wildlife in different cities.
B. To compare animals’ living conditions.
C. To collect information of urban animals.
D. To help human and wildlife coexist.
29. What’s the main idea of paragraph 3?
A. The tracks of wildlife activities.
B. The movement of urban animals.
C. The way of watching city animals.
D. The different types of urbanization.
30. In what way do animals escape extreme heat?
A. Keeping still.
B. Moving constantly.
C. Shifting to the north.
D. Looking for food everywhere.
31. What is the text probably taken from?
A. A market report.
B. A science magazine.
C. A biological textbook.
D. A social research report.
D
Arecibo, a giant radio observatory is located in the lush mountains of Puerto Rico, did some of the dreamiest work in astronomy. But it was forced to stop operations this year after suffering unprecedented damage, and officials now believe that it is beyond repair. Instead of trying to fix it, they’re going to tear it down.
Arecibo has provided observations for discoveries within the solar system and well beyond. It is considered one of the best spots for studying potentially dangerous asteroids(小行星) near Earth.
Over the years, Arecibo has faced danger and damage, but it has always endured. In its lifetime, it has experienced earthquakes and storms, including the hurricane that spoilt Puerto Rico in 2017, which damaged some of the dish.
The trouble began in August. A metal support cable weighing thousands of pounds slipped out of its socket（插口）and dropped sharply into the cavernous, 1,000-foot-wide radio dish in the middle of the night. The cable, installed in the 1990s, was considered fairly new for an observatory that began operations in 1963, and the incident confused Arecibo’s officials. The cable “definitely should not have failed in the way it did,” Ashley Zauderer, the Arecibo program director at the National Science Foundation, which owns the telescope, said. But earlier this month, just days before engineers were scheduled to try to stabilize the telescope, another piece of hardware came smashing into the dish. A main cable, one of the originals installed when the observatory was built, had cracked, causing even more damage.
Engineers are now working to quickly outlined a plan to pull down the telescope before it collapses on its own. Arecibo’s failure is a different fate than astronomers are used to. Hardware of all sorts ages and breaks — Hubble, another famed telescope, is operating with fewer working parts than it launched with 30 years ago. But it is unusual to wreck an observatory because you have no other choice, and so unexpectedly too.
32. What will happen to Arecibo?
A. It will be destroyed.
B. It will be rebuilt.
C. It will be repaired.
D. It will be stabilized.
33. What does the underlined word “endured” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Avoided. B. Survived. C. Endangered. D. Forgotten.
34. Which can best explain Ashley Zauderer’s message in paragraph 3?
A. Arecibo can be removed easily.
B. Arecibo has failed at work unexpectedly.
C. Arecibo has made significant contribution.
D. Arecibo’s present situation is unimaginable.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Powerful Telescope Faces Upgrading.
B. Immeasurable Losses Happened to Astronomy.
C. The Damaged Arecibo Telescope Meets an End.
D. Great Observatory is Being Reconstructed Before Its Time.
