After decluttering guru(整理大师) Marie Kondo published her book The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up in 2010,“tidy house, tidy mind” has become a belief for many people. They throw away anything that doesn't “bring joy” and put everything in order.
But recently, the Japanese guru announced that she would be giving up on tidying up her house to spend more time on her children. The news shocked many followers and also caused heated discussion on social media as people asked the question: shouldn't we always keep our house tidy?
Some people insist that mastering the art of decluttering has the power to relieve our lives. By repackaging, labeling and arranging things neatly, people can feel more in control of their environment and spend less time looking for daily necessities. To some extent, “by tidying, we're allowed to adjust ourselves; we're able to discover our sense of value.” Wang Zehu, a decluttering consultant in Shanghai, told China Daily.
Yet it holds the untold negative of cleanliness and order as well—the constant worries over what can prove to be trivial matters, said Zoe Williams of The Guardian. For example, you may ask yourself: “Did I put my books on the shelf correctly?” “Where's the perfect place to put my towels?” and so on. Ironically, just worrying about small things also leads to wasted time.
Since decluttering continued enjoying popularity, social media has encouraged aesthetics(审美观) that tend to make “tidy backdrops a lack of personal style,” noted the New York Post. Sometimes, “clutter” conveys something about the owner of the living space, showing off their personality and celebrating the beauty which “can't be copied”.
In fact, the act of “decluttering” or “keeping order in chaos” is simply away to bring joy and find happiness. As Kondo herself told The Washington Post, “The true purpose of tidy is not to cut down on your possessions or declutter your space, but rather to learn to make meaningful choices and find gratitude in everyday life.
24.HowdoesdeclutteringbenefitpeopleaccordingtoWangZehu?
A. It helps to save time and space. B. It gives people a greater sense of control.
C. It helps people know what they truly value. D. It helps to reduce stress and anxiety.
25. What does the underlined word “trivial” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Urgent B. critical C. Complex D. Insignificant
26. What is the main idea of the second-to-last paragraph?
A. Decluttering is rising in world popularity.
B. The decluttering trend goes against creativity.
C. Decluttering has created a new form of beauty.
D. Decluttering is bring out people's personality.
27. In Marie Kondo’s opinion, what is the true purpose of tidying?
A. To be organized and productive. B. To reduce one's desire for material goods.
C. To create a comfortable environment. D. To live a meaningful life and be grateful.

Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid was known as “the Queen of the Curve”; Italian-born British architect Richard Rogers liked high-tech steel structure... Many star architects are easily recognized by their typical styles. Unlike them, however, British architect David Chipperfield is famous for having no typical style.
For more than 40 years, Chipperfield has worked across many different building types from museums to apartment houses in different cities. While the type and location of his projects vary, his idea of matching buildings to the cities and local cultures they are built in has never changed.
On March 7, Chipperfield was named the winner of the 2023 Pritzker Architecture Prize, the highest honor in architecture. As the Pritzker jury(评审委员会) wrote, “We do not see an instantly recognizable David Chipperfield building in different cities, but different DavidChipperfieldbuildingsdesignedspecificallyforeachcircumstance.
When designing buildings, Chipperfield often looks into local architectural traditions. He includes colonnades(柱廊) in his European projects, as well as courtyards in the Chinese ones. He also uses local materials. When building the US Saint Louis Art Museum's East Building, he used aggregates(建筑集料) made of stone and sand from the Missouri River, reported CNN.
Chipperfield thinks that the world is filled with bad modern architecture. During a 2011TedX talk, he said so many global buildings are finished fast without concern for the future. “As an architect, I'm in a way the preserver of meaning, memory, and heritage. Cities are historical records, and architecture after a certain moment is a historical record,” said Chipperfield.
So, instead of going after newness and fastness, Chipperfield respects each city's history. Built in the mid-1800s, Berlin's Neues Museum was bombed nearly to pieces during World WarII and left in ruins. In 1997, Chipperfield rebuilt it by keeping its former remains as part of the new design. Thousands of pieces of scraps(废料), even bullet holes, were included in the building, according to Bloomberg.
As the statement of the award explains, Chipperfield's works “embrace the preexisting” while creating “structures able to last, physically and culturally”.
28. What is Chipperfield's architectural approach?
A. He highlights local qualities. B. He always uses sustainable materials.1

C. He adopts high-tech structure. D. He prefers sharp angles and striking lines.
29. What does the section concerning the US Saint Louis Art Museum show about Chipperfield and his works?
A. Each of his works is unique. B. He likes making use of local materials.
C. He focuses on building museums D. He often includes colonnades in his buildings.
30. According to Chipperfield, what is a problem with bad modern architecture?
A. It has no typical style. B. It lacks creativity in design.
C. It is not visually appealing. D. It prefers speed to quality.
31. How did Chipperfield rebuild Berlin's Neues Museum?
A. He restored it as it used to be.
B. He tried to make it look more modern.
C. He created a structure able to last for a long time.
D. He had the former remains built into the design.

People's first memories are all autobiographical (自传式的), or memories of important experiences in their lives, and these events didn't happen before the age of 2 or 3. In fact, most people can't remember things from the first few years of their lives—a phenomenon researchers have called infantile amnesia.
However, research suggests that infants can form other kinds of memories. Within the first few days of life, infants can recall their own mother's face and tell it from the face of a stranger: A few months later, infants can demonstrate that they remember lots of familiar faces by smiling most at the ones they see most often.
But if so, why do people experience infantile amnesia? Though it still isn't clear whether it's because we can't form autobiographical memories, or whether we just have no way to regain them, scientists have a few guesses.
One is that autobiographical memories require you to have some sense of self. Researchers have tested this ability using a mirror recognition task called the rouge test. It involves marking a baby's nose with a spot of red lipstick.
Researchers then place the infant in front of a mirror. Infants younger than 18 months just smile at the baby in the reflection, not showing any evidence of. recognizing themselves or the red mark on their face. Between 18 and 24 months, infants touch their own nose, even looking embarrassed, suggesting that they connect the red dot in the mirror with their own face—they start to form some sense of self.
Another possible explanation is that because infants don't have language until later in the second year of life, they can't form descriptions about their own lives that they can later recall. Finally, the hippocampus(海马体);which is the region of the brain that's largely responsible for memory, isn't fully developed in the infancy period.
Scientists will continue to investigate how these factors might contribute to infantile amnesia.
32. What can infants do in their first few months?
A. Memorize- most of their family members.
B. Distinguish between familiar and unfamiliar faces.
C. Remember a series of events from the recent past.
D. Identify their own reflections in the mirror.
33. What do infants tend to do after 18 months according to the rouge test?
A. See their reflections as themselves. B. Ignore the marks on their faces.
C. Enjoy playing with their reflections. D. Show a strong interest in the mirror.
34. What could be a cause of infantile amnesia according to the text?
A. Infants' inability to recall memories.
B. Infants' immature hippocampus.
C. Infants' undeveloped communication skills.
D. Infants' flexible autobiographical memories.
35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. When do babies start remembering things? B. Why is it hard to regain lost memories?
C. How do kids form their first memories? D. Why can't we remember being a baby?

Social media can connect you to friends and family, bring you the latest and most important news, and help you discover things you would never come across otherwise. 36 . They can lead to negative emotions or distract you from important tasks. Your first thought may be to delete your accounts completely, but you may miss out on all of the benefits. Why not use some of these smart strategies to help you find a good balance?
· 37
The contacts on your social media can add up quickly over time as we constantly follow more people. Adding in other junk accounts can make things even worse. The next time you load up one of your social media apps, take some time to unfollow the accounts and people you're no longer interested in. 38 . If you're only following 50 people on twitter, for example, you know that you're not missing too much if you're only checking your timeline once a day.
·Turn off notices
Fewer notices can help you keep focused and create a healthy habit of checking social media only when you really have to. Notices aren't too difficult to control these days.39 . Browse through the options you have inside your apps, too, in case some apps have secret ways of inform you.
•Set time limits

Still, you might find these limitations are effective at reducing the amount of time you spend checking your social networks. 40 , and from there you can set how long you are allowed to use each app for. Despite all of these measures, you’ll definitely still need a bit of willpower as well.
A. Update your accounts regularly
B. Follow fewer people
C. You can find Screen Time options in the iOS
D. Take a look at the phone’s settings and you will see what you can change
E. However, social media contact may cause you problems

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A picture book stood quietly on the shelf of a children's bookstore, waiting for young readers to read it.
One day, a little girl came. She sat down on the ground and read the picture book with interest. Then she put it back on the shelf, took out her pocket and said to the book, “I love you so much, but I can't afford you. My father is working out of the town, and my mother is ill now. You see, my pocket is empty. I have no money.”
The next day, the little girl came again. She read the picture book again, and wrote an note, reading: “I want to read you once more, but I can't come tomorrow because I will go to the hospital to take care of my mother. Can you fly over to my house like a bird? The note has my home address on it.” She put the note into the book, and left the bookstore.
How the picture book wanted to fly into the arms of the little girl! Books needed readers who liked them most, just like the little girl needed her mother. But it was not a bird. It could not fly, and its hardcover could not flap like wings. The picture book could do nothing but huddle(蜷缩) in the middle of the books, waiting for the girl to come again.
One day, there was a big boy who loved reading. He put all the books he liked into his shopping basket, including the picture book. His mother paid the bill for all the books without saying anything.
The big boy had his own bookshelf in his room, with all kinds of books ranked neatly on it. He began to read one book after another that he had bought. When he got to the picture book, he found the note. He was so surprised that he gave it to his mother. His mother read it and was deeply touched, knowing that there was a little girl who loved the picture book but could not afford it. They decided to deliver the picture book to the address that the little girl had written on the note.
注意：
1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右；
2. 续写部分分为两段每段的开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph 1:
The next day, the deliveryman returned the picture book, saying the girl could not be reached.







Paragraph 2:
Until one day, the big boy heard a woman and a girl talking in the girl's house.
