That rejectin became a driver fr creatin. “There was a gap in the art wrld, and I thught it’d be really cl if I culd prvide the pprtunity t mre yung artists,” says Alex, nw 15.
With the supprt f his parents, Alex rented a strefrnt and funded Little EGG Gallery, a cmmercial studi nly fr underage artists.

In a new study, researchers have unveiled interesting findings that link the cnsumptin f refined carbhydrates-such as sugary snacks and highly prcessed fds-with changes in facial attractiveness. They fund that individuals wh cnsumed a high glycemic (血糖的) lad breakfast were rated as less attractive than thse wh cnsumed a lw ne.
104 participants were asked t attend the study early in the mrning n an empty stmach. Upn arrival, they were assigned t cnsume ne f tw types f breakfasts having the same calric values: ne high in refined carbhydrates and the ther lw. Abut tw hurs later, they were phtgraphed under standardized cnditins t ensure cnsistency in lighting, backgrund, and psitining. A separate grup f raters, wh were carefully selected t minimize cultural bias (偏见), assessed the facial phtgraphs, making judgments n verall attractiveness.
T evaluate lng-term dietary habits, the participants cmpleted detailed dietary questinnaires cncerning their cnsumptin during breakfast, afternn snacks, and between-meal snacks n the day befre the study. This infrmatin was used t calculate the glycemic lad and energy intake fr these meals, prviding a cmprehensive picture f their usual refined carbhydrate cnsumptin.
The researchers fund that participants wh cnsumed a breakfast rich in refined carbhydrates were less attractive than thse wh cnsumed a lw-glycemic breakfast. This effect was bserved fr bth male and female participants. The researchers prpsed that this culd be related t the physilgical effects f lw bld sugar, such as changes in skin bld flw and clur, which ccur fllwing the cnsumptin f high-glycemic fds.
When examining lng-term cnsumptin f refined carbhydrates thrugh glycemic lad measures, the researchers fund that a higher energy intake at breakfast was assciated with increased attractiveness fr bth men and wmen, suggesting that fds high in fats and prteins, which d nt lead t rapid glycemic respnses, might cntribute psitively t perceived attractiveness.
Hwever, the effects f refined carbhydrate cnsumptin n attractiveness varied depending n the specific meal and the gender f the participants. Fr example, while high energy intake at breakfast increased attractiveness acrss bth genders, the glycemic lad f afternn snacks had ppsite effects fr men and wmen. Men with a higher glycemic lad during their afternn snack were perceived as mre attractive, but fr wmen, a lwer glycemic lad in this meal was assciated with increased attractiveness.
While the study includes sme limitatins, the findings serve as a strng reminder f the far-reaching impact f dietary chices. Further research is needed t understand the brader scial implicatins f diet, which culd prvide valuable insights int the cmplex interplay between diet, bilgy, and scial behaviur.
28. What are Paragraph 2 and 3 mainly abut?
A. The research purpse.B. The research methds.
C. The research prpsal.D. The research backgrund.
29. What can we learn abut the research findings?
A. Sharp glycemic reactins might reduce attractiveness.
B. Lw bld sugar culd impact attractiveness psitively.
C. Men were less affected by refined carbhydrate cnsumptin.
D. High energy intake at meals had incnsistent effects n wmen.
30. What is the purpse f the research?
A. T explain a fd preference.B. T illustrate a bilgical prcess.
C. T present a dietary phenmenn.D. T explre a cmplex assciatin.

When climate activists glued themselves t the frame f a cpy f The Last Supper at Lndn’s Ryal Academy f Arts, they received a fairly sympathetic hearing. “N painting is wrth mre than my six-mnth-ld nephew’s life,” said a prtester, criticizing the British gvernment’s supprt f the fssil fuel industry during the urgent climate crisis. But when prtesters threw tmat sup at Van Ggh’s Sunflwers, and mashed ptates at Haystacks by Mnet — the censure rse.
“Abslutely absurd,” said the culture minister f France. “We have been deeply shaken by their risky endangerment,” read a statement frm the Internatinal Cuncil f Museums.
The prtesters are targeting wrks that are prtected behind glass — at least fr nw — s actual damage has been minimal. And perhaps the anger greeting their acts prves their pint: that peple care mre abut the threatened destructin f a painting than the actual destructin f the planet. But as the attacks wear n, and their impact decreases, they risk changing int a jke.
What’s especially misguided abut the prtests is their binary nature. “What is wrth mre, art r life?” a prtester asked. Why chse? “It’s pssible t blame bth envirnmental vandalism (蓄意破坏) and cultural vandalism at the same time,” Mark Pasnik, chair f the Bstn Art Cmmissin, said.
Art is nt the prblem here. In fact, cntemprary artists are making quite effective wrks abut the climate crisis, precisely using art as activism. Maya Lin’s Ghst Frest, a climate change memrial she created in a New Yrk City park, is nly ne example. “I believe that art can help us imagine and map sustainable future scenaris (设想), and, in ding s, give peple a way t see and hpe fr a different future,” Lin said.
The climate activists are surely crrect that the pace f refrm is far t slw, as the planet burns and deadly strms intensify. But they casually dismiss the sincere effrts f millins f peple wrking n the issue. It wuld be easier t respect the yung prtesters at Just Stp Oil, Last Generatin, and the rest f the splash grups if they were t spend their time and energy n the unexciting but essential plitical wrk arund climate change: legislatin, regulatin, and winning hearts and minds.
Perhaps predictably, the debates caused by the prtests have nt been abut climate change, but abut the prtests themselves. Given hw little they’ve dne t generate serius discussin r engage peple t the cause, the art attacks seem less like vital acts f lawbreaking than mere theatre.
31. What des the underlined wrd “censure” in Paragraph 1 prbably mean?
A. Apprval.B. Criticism.C. Stress.D. Spirits.
32. Which idea can help explain climate activists’ actin?
A. The end justifies the means.
B. Art speaks where wrds fail.
C. The freedm f prtest shuld be prtected.
D. Art matters in the fight against climate crisis.
33. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A. The slutin t climate crisis lies in cmmunicatin.
B. Galleries shuld strengthen regulatins like theatres.
C. Climate activists shuld diversify their strategies.
D. Art attacks are mainly abut seeking attentin.
34. The authr writes the passage t ________.
A. launch a campaignB. assess a debateC. prpse a slutinD. challenge a practice

【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了新中式在中国的流行。
【17题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：在风景秀丽、文化底蕴深厚的苏州和杭州等城市，穿着汉服拍照和社交媒体打卡的趋势正在上升。空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词为cities，表示地点，且空处在从句中作地点状语，所以应用where引导。故填where。
【18题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：新中式风格正成为年轻人接受的一种流行的日常选择，他们越来越多地在生活的各个方面采用这种风格。本句的谓语部分是is becming，所以空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语a ppular everyday chice和accept之间是动宾关系，所以应用过去分词，作后置定语。故填accepted。
【19题详解】
考查名词。句意：中国传统元素与现代设计的结合通常被称为“新中式”（new Chinese style），在产品和活动中都越来越受欢迎。空前有The，所以空处应用名词，在句中作主语。cmbinatin意为“结合”，为不可数名词。故填cmbinatin。
【20题详解】
考查介词。句意参考上题。refer 意为“将……称为……”，为固定搭配，此处为被动表达。故填as。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了逆境商数（AQ）的概念以及如何提高AQ来应对生活中的挑战和困难。
【40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文中“AQ is a measure f hw well yu deal with life’s challenges, bstacles, and even ttal failures.(AQ 是衡量你如何应对生活中的挑战、障碍甚至彻底失败的一种标准)”可知，AQ 是衡量应对生活中的挑战、障碍和失败的能力的标准。故填AQ is a measure f hw well yu deal with life’s challenges, bstacles, and even ttal failures.

When yu’re dealing with an adverse situatin, remve yur emtins.
