26、Wherever we go, we are surrounded by history. Across the globe, cultural heritage is passed down through the generations. It is in the buildings and structures around us. It is in the arts and artifacts (手工艺品) we treasure. It lives in the languages we speak and the stories we tell. But today, it is under attack as never before. Not only are the damages of time threatening our cultural heritage, but conflicts, climate change, globalization and tourism are all exacting a heavy price. Technology is now the most essential weapon in the battle. Here’s how technology is preserving our cultural heritage.
As you can imagine, creating the replicas (复制品) via crowd sourced 2D images is extremely time-consuming. Increasingly, artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms (算法) are being used to do all the required sourcing, allowing millions of images to be stored in a matter of hours. AI will also make restoration and preservation of existing cultural heritage far easier and vastly superior to previous methods.
Virtual reality (VR) technology will play a leading role in preserving our cultural heritage in the coming years. Many of the most important sites and architecture are extremely fragile. Human interaction with these locations is doing a great deal of harm. Wastes accumulate everywhere, causing enormous problems. As more cultural heritage sites and objects are digitally mapped and recorded, VR technology will increasingly become the way that people experience them. We’ll all eventually be able to walk through places, look at (and touch!) artifacts and works of art without ever seeing them with our own eyes.
Finally, our cultural heritage will be preserved via technology. Efforts in research, innovation, data sharing and project work will help promote and preserve the cultural heritage of countries all across the world.
【1】What does the underlined word “exacting” in paragraph 1 mean?
A．Paying.
B．Cutting.
C．Receiving.
D．Demanding.
【2】What is the advantage of AI in preserving cultural heritage?
A．It generates 2D images.
B．It makes restoration easier.
C．It makes preservation safer.
D．It creates replicas in seconds.
【3】How does VR help to preserve cultural heritage?
A．By recycling huge amounts of waste.
B．By reducing human impact on the site.
C．By forbidding visitors from touching artifacts.
D．By educating people about the sites’ importance.
【4】What is the author’s attitude towards technology application in preserving the cultural heritage?
A．Ignoring.
B．Compromising.
C．Approving.
D．Disagreeing.
27、One morning, my husband Jerry went back to the kitchen as he just finished loading his car. “I guess filling my thermos(保温瓶) is all that I have left to do, and then I’m off.” Down the drain went the hot water that had been warming his thermos.
With a nostalgic(怀旧的) look on his face, he softly said: “Anytime I fill my thermos I think of your mom.” The tone in his voice was so tender as he spoke of my mother, who is sadly no longer with us.
“Oh honey, I know she’s watching and listening right now with a big smile on her face,” I responded, tears in my eyes.
One morning years ago when we were leaving, mother watched as Jerry was to fill his thermos. Mom then casually said, ‘Jerry, if you filled your thermos with hot water and let it sit a while, your coffee would stay hot for longer then.” With her simple suggestion, his face showed that he was shocked by his own lack of common sense. Well, of course it would!
He poured out the small amount of coffee already in the thermos and refilled it with boiling hot water. Then he poured the water and refilled it with hot coffee. Mom smiled as Jerry did so.
Words of wisdom from a loving mother-in-law made an impact that will never be forgotten. She never dreamed her words would be a treasured and everlasting memory in the heart of her son-in-law.
The lasting memories don’t necessarily come from major moments in life. Memories are often made during those small, ordinary times. Life is about small moments we share with friends and loved ones.
【1】Which word best describes the author’s feeling in Paragraph 3? ____
A. Confused B. Concerned
C. Touched D. Interested
【2】The underlined part “don’t necessarily” is similar in meaning to ________.
A. out of the question
B. without any doubt
C. certainly and absolutely
D. possibly but uncertainly
【3】 The message that the story intends to convey is ______.
A. how valuable a mother’s advice is to her children.
B. that lasting memories come from small things
C. what a wise woman the mother is to her son-in-law
D. why we should respect our parents and listen to them.
28、How to Fill Your Empty Walls with Beautiful Art
If you’ve ever stared at an empty wall wondering what to put there, you’re not alone. The idea of having the same museum print as everyone else doesn’t seem that appealing.
But, many people who may be interested in purchasing art are at a loss on how to start. The amount of time taken to discover art and artists that you truly love, and the expense of purchasing art, keep many people from even considering it.
But now, TurningArt is solving this dilemma(困境). TurningArt is an online subscription(订
阅 ) service that allows the average consumer to learn about art and be able to afford to own it. TurningArt offers art-lovers an online gallery of thousands of works, from highly accomplished and successful artists, to view in their homes and eventually buy if they want to.
Here’s how it works
Visit TurningArt.com to browse through the work of hundreds of independent artists from across the country. Sorted by style, medium, color, price, artist, or even region, new art is added daily. You’re sure to find several things you like.
Then, simply sign up for one of TurningArt’s subscription plans. These start at just $10 per month. TurningArt will send you your first piece, framed and ready to hang right out of the box. The piece will not be the original, but rather a museum-quality print produced together with the artist. You can request the next piece at any time. New prints arrive in a mailer that you can use to send back your old prints.
You can enjoy each piece for one, two, or three months—however long you want. And, best of all, you never have to worry about taping, sizing, or centering your new print, because all prints are pre-sized to fit easily into the frame originally sent to you.

29、Two-time cancer survivor Tracy Pepper has developed an unlikely friendship — with a beautiful butterfly, which she called Fluffy.
Ms. Pepper found Fluffy in her garden struggling for life soon after birth. After feeding it on honey from a sunflower, Fluffy recovered but didn’t regain the use of its wings and has remained with Ms. Pepper ever since.
She has been recording the experience on social media. In one post, she wrote, “I’m the crazy butterfly lady! I just spent 3 hours playing with him, exercising him by walking him up and down my fingers and arms, feeding him and even giving him the feeling of flying! He sat on my hand and beat his wings as I moved my hand up and down pretending he was flying!”
Ms. Pepper said it was sympathy and empathy that drove her. After battling against cancer twice and keeping herself busy with aid work in Africa, she fell into a “depression” last year.
“When I found him helpless and unable to fly, I knew just how he felt. I went through burn-out last year. I wanted to give up… I felt really lonely.”
So she decided to help the insect, to which she has become attached. Ms. Pepper even advertised tickets of internationally-famous Cirque du Soleil’s act she had for sale because she thought staying at home to care for Fluffy was more important.
Unfortunately, Fluffy wouldn’t be around for long — the lifespan of a butterfly ranges from two to six weeks.
But she seemed to care little about it. She wrote on Facebook, “He has a wonderful life and when his time comes, he will die flat and happy and very very loved.”
【1】What was the butterfly like when Ms. Pepper first saw it?
A．It was dying.
B．It was too old to fly.
C．It was struggling against an enemy.
D．It was feeding itself on honey from a sunflower.
【2】Why did Ms. Pepper sell the tickets of Cirque du Soleil’s act?
A．Because she lost interest in the act.
B．Because she had to stay home to look after the butterfly.
C．Because she was busy with aid work in Africa.
D．Because she suffered from cancer twice and was too weak.
【3】Which words can best describe Ms. Pepper?
A．Determined and hard working
B．kind-hearted and sympathetic
C．Indifferent and selfish
D．Selfless and determined
【4】Why did Ms. Pepper save the butterfly and become friends with it?
A．Because she was interested and curious.
B．Because she loved small animals.
C．Because she showed sympathy and understanding for it.
D．Because she desired to get close to nature.

32、The 6yearold kid watched in silence as the man behind the desk，the headmaster of the school，shook his head more than once to his mother．
Minutes later，mother and son walked slowly out of the school，her right hand holding his little hand，her left holding an umbrella to shield(遮挡) both of them from the sun．“Where are we going now，mother？”asked the kid，looking up at her．“To another school，”was her gentle reply．For some reason，the little kid had not been accepted by the school，and she was taking him to another，to try to get him registered．That was more than 50 years ago．That woman was my mother；that little kid was me．
Fifty years later，the day after my mother had slipped into a coma(昏迷) from a stroke，I sat next to her，holding her hand，stroking it，watching her body heaved up and down as she breathed heavily，as if she was struggling with something．Her eyes were closed，her mouth opened．I whispered softly to her，“Mum，it’s okay．You have given us everything．You can let go now．No need to struggle anymore，Mum．”
A few days later，Mum died．At her bedside，I spent some time just looking at my mother，soaking in the finality of her death．There she was，my mother，motionless and lifeless．I took hold of her still warm but lifeless hand，holding it for the last time，recalling every piece of the precious moment we spent together．
I finally let go of her hand—lifeless，yet having given so much life to so many of us，and placed it next to her body．I found myself saying silently to her the only words that came to my mind，“Goodbye Mum，thank you for everything．”
Thank you，Mother，for not giving up，so that I could go to school．Thank you for coaching me，for reading to me，for ironing my school uniforms，for combing my hair，for tying my shoe laces，for making sure I had a little handkerchief inside my pocket．．．
Rest in peace，Mother，you are still very much alive in us．Happy Mother’s Day．
