25、hem dont have sign language versions. We have subtitles but it goes too fast, his dad Jarod Mills said. But now, Toby has some help thanks to an app developed by a 17-year-old student, Mariella Satow, who created a signing app called SignUp. She got the idea when she was teaching herself American Si
26、gn Language（ASL）one of hundreds of sign languages used across the world. Mariella wanted to watch TV shows to help her learn, and she was disappointed to discover how few had signed versions. Its taken a year for Mariella to develop the technology, with lots of help from ASL teachers and the deaf co
27、mmunity. The app is available in the US as a browser extensionwith an interpreter appearing in a box once the film starts playing. It only works on Disney Plus films at the moment, because thats where Mariella thought she could help the most children. Jarod, who works at a school for deaf children,
28、says it was exciting watching Toby use Mariellas invention. He says, Kids are getting information like any hearing child does.Deaf people in the UK face many of the same barriers when it comes to cinema and TV. A hearing person can go to the cinema any time whereas deaf people have to make sure ther

She has learned British Sign Language（BSL）, and is comfortable using subtitles when watching TV shows and films. But she feels having an interpreter would make things more inclusive, especially for someone who migh
30、t struggle with subtitles. Stacey and Toby arent the only people to be welcoming Mariellas app. Its now got thousands of users.

32、lack of signed TV shows for the deafC. her childhood memories in a cinemaD. the encouragement from her teachers25. What will be Mariellas next challenge?A. To update the app for cinemas.B. To design a BSL version of the app. C. To launch a universal version of the appD. To promote the use of her app
33、 worldwide. 26. Which of the following words can best describe Mariella?A. Creative and caring.B. Talented and humorous. C. Curious and fearless. D. Knowledgeable and humble. CPioneers like Harvard social ecologist Stephen Kellert were among the first to champion modern biophilic design. Kellert bel
34、ieved that weaving nature into living and workspaces is critical for good physical and mental health. Humans have evolved to gravitate towards nature, Kellert noted. but if we dont develop that impulse it fades. So his principles include access to natural light, air, water. plants, and gardens. Usin
35、g materials such as wood and stone, natural designs such as leaf or shell patterns, and earthy colors also helps humans to feel closer to nature. Biophilic designs can be seen in cities and buildings around the world. Modern examples include the Jewel Changi Airport in Singapore, with its four-store
36、y forest garden and worlds largest indoor waterfall fed by rainwater. Or the Swedish Mirrorcube tree house hotel, mainly made of used plywood and a lightweight aluminum（铝）frame wrapped around a tree.Spectacular biophilic homes include One Central Park in Sydney apartment blocks featuring hanging gar
37、dens on the outside. The buildings recycle their own water and a suspended（悬浮的）motorized mirror system reflects sunlight down onto gardens below. Milans Bosco Verticale block is perhaps even more eyecatching with its vertical forest of 17,000 trees, bushes, and plants. Putting biophilic design to wo
38、rk for society could prevent millions in healthcare costs, with one study estimating annual savings of $93 million in the US alone. Hospital design in particular has historically been influenced by access to sunlight and views of nature. Modern buildings like the Khoo Teck Puat Hospital in Singapore
39、, with its position next to the waterfall of the Yishun Pond, are closely linked with their surroundings. The hospital channels outdoor air to cool the inside, and uses reflective sunshades to direct light into the wards to brighten them and save energy. The aim of these designs is to emphasize the
40、human connection to nature by integrating buildings with the local environment. But how do we bring biophilia into our homes? Start with house plants. New smart home apps can also provide sensory nature experiences such as birdsong and a projected forest canopy, helping people to carve out a restful
41、 space indoors. But perhaps the best way to transform society with biophilic designs is to start with schools. Children learn better and feel more relaxed in biophilic settings. So the Children and Nature Network is working with schools across the US to create green schoolyards for better physical a
42、nd mental health and to increase opportunities for outdoor learning. Biophilic designers are bringing nature into classrooms through natural patterns, shapes and colors, nature photography, artwork and materials like timber and stone. Fresh air flow, green walls, and aquariums all become part of a r
43、ecipe for improving health and academic success. 27. According to the passage, Stephen Kellert probably believes that_.A. humans inborn love for nature wont be lessenedB. nature can improve peoples sense of responsibilityC. humans need to appreciate and make good use of natureD. natural materials ha
44、ve taken priority in modern building designs28. What do the examples of biophilic designs in the passage have in common?A. They apply smart home technology.B. They promote sustainable development. C. They include waterfalls and gardens inside.D. They use local resources to cut the cost of buildings.
45、 29. From the last two paragraphs, we learn that biophilic designs _.A. have greatly transformed schoolsB. help improve students performanceC. focus mainly on students mental healthD. have moved most of the classrooms outside30. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Lets
46、Invite Nature InsideB. Live Naturally and SimplyC. The Best Natural Building DesignerD. Ups and Downs of Natural BuildingsDMillions watch the Oscars every year, but Im always interested in the Razzies（金酸梅奖）, which recognize cinematic underachievement. For all the attention given to what we like, wha
47、t we dislike can be just as important, interesting and empoweringFrench sociologist Pierre Bourdieu saw dislike as snobbery. He saw all judgments of taste, favorable or not, as performances of class. The rich could justify their place, he argued, by claiming to have more refined tastes. Knowing whic
48、h literature or art to praise could signal to others their rightful place at the top of society. Oversimplified his theory might be, it is not entirely wrong.Furthermore, dislikes are often used as a way not to stand apart but to fit in. It means learning the unspoken rules of whats OK to like or di
49、slike, and to proclaim those likes or dislikes loudly for others to hear. When some of us swim against the social tide, we might be savvy（精明的）enough to label our likes as guilty pleasures, which both acknowledges the rules and apologizes for violating them. In my research, though, I found that disli
50、ke isnt just a form of snobbery. We interviewed over 200 people, a diverse group in race, age, and social class. All the interviewees tended to actively dislike media content far more when they felt they couldnt escape it. Many people cant choose the radio station thats playing at work, or whats on
51、TV at the bar. Moreover, some of us are subjected to more annoyance than others. Remote controls, for instance, have long been seen as a special right of dads, with women and kids given less power to change the channel. Everyone turns to media hoping for specific needs to be met, but those who have
52、those needs realized less often are those who might dislike more often. Therefore, speaking about dislikes is an act of resistancea refusal to allow public space to be conquered by the media content that doesnt connect. Dislike can certainly transform into anger or hate, but it may also take a more
53、playful form. Sometimes we could see people joyfully watch the object of their dislike and offer a commentary of criticism, instead of tuning out and turning off. Why? Reveling in dislike can help regain control in a world that overwhelms everyone with content. Keeping the despised shows at hand rat
54、her than avoiding them can help the dislikers speak up in the court of public opinion. Or some might enjoy their dislikes as a way to avoid ruining certain relationships. Many of us can probably relate to the experience of having a friend who insists we watch something against our will. What if, rat
55、her than resenting the show or the person, we simply embrace it in all of its embarrassing glory? By all means, pay attention to the advice to ignore the haters. But a lot can be learned by listening to the dislikers. 31. According to Paragraph 3, people label their likes as guilty pleasures when th
56、ey_.A. follow the mainstreamB. take pride in their tasteC. set up the unspoken rules D. try to fit into a certain group32. What can we learn from the passage?A. Dislikes can he found mostly among the rich. B. Learning about literature and art is an act of snobbery. C. Expressing dislike helps mainta

This includes your beliefs about your inner qualities and how you think others see you. 35 Someone can develop low self-esteem even when they are highly functional and
60、 greatly skilled. Understanding this mysterious emotional currency might be the key to unlocking your own self-worth. People with healthy self-esteem dont need to boast about themselves to others. People with low self-esteem may tell you how much everyone loves them, what a great job they do at work
61、, and how amazing they are at pretty everything under the sun even though they really wonder if its true. People may see them as obnoxious or full of themselves. 36 They are not shy about sharing ideas, including constructive criticisms of others. They also take care of themselves without second-gue
62、ssing or apologizing. They are the people who we say seem sure of themselves. If youre starting to think you may have low self-esteem, you can work on the way you talk to yourself. When you turn off negative self-talk, you can open the floor to positive reinforcements and access the courage to show
63、different sides of yourself. It isnt going to feel good at first, though. Keep going until it becomes less and less and maybe even a few awkward laughs in the mirror may help. 37 However, in serious cases of low or even non-existent self-esteem, you may want to call in a professional or a specialist
64、. Good mental health is important, and professionals doing psychotherapy do not pass judgement or give corrections. 38 It is the best way to get at the roots of your real self-esteem problems. 39 It will take some work but your entire lifefrom your relationships to your body image to your work habit

68、aginative, passionately curious and creative across multiple disciplinespainting, architecture, aeronautics, and engineering. Yet oddly the word genius minimizes him by making it seem as if he were touched by lightning. His early biographer made this mistake: Sometimes, in a supernatural fashion, a
69、single person is gifted by heaven with beauty, grace, and talent in such abundance that seems that his every act is divine（天赐的） In fact, the self-taught Leonardos genius was shaped by his own will and ambition. It did not come from being the divine recipient, like Newton or Einstein. Part of what ma

72、re like him. His life offers a wealth of lessons. Seek knowledge for its own sake. Not all knowledge needs to be useful. Sometimes it should be pursued for pure pleasure. Leonardo did not need to know how heart valves work to paint the Mona Lisa, nor did he need to figure out how fossils got to the
73、top of mountains to produce Virgin of the Rocks. By allowing himself to be driven by pure curiosity, he got to explore more horizons and see more connections.Keep a childlike sense of wonder. At a certain point in life, most of us quit puzzling over everyday phenomena. We might savor the beauty of a
