26、 A A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington, D.C. Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice say, “Can you hel p me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended. In a natural reflex, I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose c
27、hange and placed it on her hand without even looking at her. I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar. But the blind woman smiled and said, “I dont want your money. I just need help finding the post office.” In a moment, I realized what I had done. I judged another person simply for what I assume
28、d she had to be. I hated what I saw in myself. This incident re- awakened my belief in humility (谦恭 ), even though Id lost it for a moment. The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in the U.S. at the age of 15. I started my new life with two suitc
29、ases, my brother and sister, and a strong, serious-minded mother. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other humble jobs, and eventually I became a network engineer. In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice ( 偏见 ). I remembe
30、r a time, at age 17 I worked as a waiter, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me. I have also witnessed the same treatment of my family and friends, so I know what it s like, and I should have known better. But now, living in my America
31、n middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the streets of Washington, D.C., cured me of my blindness. She reminded me of my belief in humility and to always keep my eyes and
32、heart open. By the way, I helped that lady to the post office. And in writing this essay, I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson. - 6 - 56. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that _.

35、alue what he has right now. B. She has reminded him of the past experiences. C. He has got a chance to think about his past and future because of her. D.

36、sson in the street C. A Belief that will never change D. Learn from your past B While famous foreign architects are invited to lead the designs of landmark buildings in China such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts, many excellent Chinese architects are making grea
37、t efforts to take the center stage. Their efforts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49-year-old Chinese architect, won the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize - which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architecture -on February 28. He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award. Wang se
38、rves as head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art (CAA). His office is located at the Xiangshan campus of the university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Many buildings on the campus are his original creations. The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese
39、 universities. Many visitors were amazed by the complex architectural space and abundant building types. The curves (曲线 ) of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view. Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers to
40、 use traditional techniques to make the bricks into walls, roofs and corridors. This creation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements. - 7 - Wang s works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and traditions. Through such a balance, he
41、had created a new type of Chinese architecture, said Tadao Ando, the winner of the 1995 Pritzker Prize. Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums. “ That is only evidence that traditions once existed,” he sa id. “Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions
42、. They think tradition means old things from the past. In fact, tradition also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created, ”he said. “ Today, many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather than focusing on Chinese traditions. Many people tend
43、 to talk about traditions without knowing what they really are,” said Wang. The study of traditions should be combined, with practice. Otherwise, the recreation of traditions would be artificial and empty, he said. 61. Wangs winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are . A. following the l
44、atest world trend B. getting international recognition C. working harder than ever before D. relying on foreign architects 62. What impressed visitors to the CAA Xiangshan campus most? A. Its hilly environment. B. Its large size. C. Its unique style. D. Its diverse functions 63. The Xiangshan campus
45、 of the CAA in Hangzhou is also a green project because . A. it used more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages B. it has complex architectural space and abundant building types C. the curves of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills D. its full of modern and traditiona
46、l Chinese elements 64. What made Wang s architectural design a success? A. The mixture of different shapes. B. The harmony of old and new. C. The use of popular technique. D. The balance of complexity and simplicity. 65. What should we do about Chinese traditions according to Wang Shu? A. Spreading
47、them to the world. B. Preserving them at museums. C. Teaching them in universities. D. Recreating them in practice. C There has long been a notion ( 观念 ) that money buys happiness. However, although “we really, really tried that for a couple of generations, it didnt work,“ said Francine Jay, author
48、of The Joy of Less, A Minimalist Living Guide: How to Clear, Organize, and Simplify Your Life. Thanks to a travel-inspired revelation (启发 ), Jay has been happily living a simpler life for 12years. “I always packed as lightly as possible, and found it exciting to get by with just a small carry-on bag
49、,“ she told CNN. “ I thought if it feels this great to travel lightly, how amazing would it be to live this way? I wanted to have that same feeling of freedom in my everyday life.“ Jay decided to get rid of all her excess ( 额外的 ) possessions and live with just - 8 - the essentials ( 必需品 ). “I wanted to spend my time and energy on experiences, rather than thing
