    The Pritzker Architecture Prize is known as the Nobel Prize for architects. Each year it is awarded to professionals — an individual or team who have made important contributions to the field of architecture and design. Here is a list of some Pritzker winners. 

    Ieoh Ming Pei

    Chinese-born architect Ieoh Ming Pei tended to use large, abstract forms and sharp, geometric designs. His glass-covered structures seem to spring from the high-tech modernist movement. The jury(评委会) noted, "Pei has designed over 50 projects, many of which have been award winners. Two of his most famous designs have included the East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , and the extension of the Louvre in Paris, France. "

    Kenzō Tange

    This master of architecture was one of the most significant architects of the 20th century, combining traditional Japanese styles with modernism. His amazing and visionary concepts of architecture led the Pritzker Jury to award him the Pritzker Prize, making him the first Japanese architect to win this prestigious award. 

    Diébédo Francis Kéré

    Recognized for "empowering and transforming communities through the process of architecture", Diébédo Francis Kéré has won 2022 Pritzker Architecture Prize, becoming the first African architect to obtain the award. The jury praised him for developing an architectural beauty based on local climatic conditions.

    Balkrishna Doshi

    Balkrishna Doshi, the first Pritzker Laureate from India, studied in Bombay, today's Mumbai, and furthered his studies in Europe. The Pritzker jury said about his selection, "Balkrishna Doshi constantly demonstrates that all good architecture and urban planning must take into account factors such as climate. "

    1. (1) Who is good at combining traditional styles and modernism?
      A . Diébédo Francis Kéré. B . Ieoh Ming Pei. C . Balkrishna Doshi. D . Kenzō Tange.

    "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never harm me, " is an old saying my fourth-grade teacher once told me. I grew up thinking as long as people didn't physically hurt each other, hurtful words were to be tolerated, but I changed my mind after reading Linda O'Connell's story, Two Little Words with a Big Impact. She discussed two words: "and" and "but", and explained how "but" can be one of the most destructive words.

    Then I realized I had been hurt by the word "but", and that I had wounded others, too, by using the word thoughtlessly. For example, when I was a teacher and edited my students' stories, I would always say their content was good, but then I would add comments such as "but you need to make your characters more realistic. " I could have said, "Your content is good and making your characters more believable will make it even better.

    In setting up guidelines for commenting on writers, I realize we need to praise each other, make helpful remarks, and then praise each other again, without using the word" but. "I remember a college professor who said, " There is no such thing as constructive criticism. Criticism is criticism. She has now passed on, but her words remain with me always.

    My fourth-grade teacher's quote was aimed at what she thought was harmless playground teasing, but even teasing hurts. Today, we can read sad news related to many stories where people have been terribly hurt by ugly words and suffered a lot. Now I realize the importance of thinking before speaking, even to avoid seemingly unimportant words like "but. " Sticks and stones break our bones, but thoughtless words also do harm. They can leave marks for a lifetime.

    1. (1) What changed the author's attitude to hurtful words?
      A . A teacher's advice. B . His personal experience. C . A college professor's words. D . A story by Linda O'Connell.
    2. (2) What message does the example in Paragraph 2 convey?
      A . The author used "but" too often. B . The author could tolerate criticism. C . The misuse of "but" can hurt others. D . Realistic characters are needed in writing.
    3. (3) Which words can best describe the author?
      A . Honest and warm-hearted. B . Devoted and co-operative. C . Optimistic and open-minded. D . Caring and self-reflective.
    4. (4) What is the text mainly about?
      A . The benefits of learning from mistakes. B . The long-lasting effect of hurtful words. C . The importance of using words thoughtfully. D . The difference between physical and emotional harm.

    Two powerful NASA telescopes have detected the oldest and most distant black hole ever found. Data collected via energetic X-rays by the Chandra X-ray Observatory and James Webb Space Telescope has helped astronomers spot the signature of a growing black hole within the early universe just 470 million years after the big bang, which occurred 

    13. 8 billion years ago. The discovery, described in a study published in Nature Astronomy, may help astronomers figure out how some of the first supermassive black holes formed in the universe. 

    "We needed Webb to find this remarkably distant galaxy (星系) and Chandra to find its supermassive black hole, " said lead study author Akos Bogdan, in a statement. "We also took advantage of a cosmic magnifying glass (宇宙放大镜) that boosted the amount of light we detected. " He was referring to an effect called gravitational lensing (引力透镜效应), which occurs when closer objects act like a magnifying glass for distant objects. Gravity essentially twists and strengthens the light of distant galaxies in the background of whatever is doing the magnifying, enabling observations of otherwise invisible features.

    Astronomers detected the black hole in a galaxy called UHZ

    1. At first glance, the galaxy appeared in the same direction as a cluster of galaxies known as Abell 2744, which is located about 

    3. 5 billion light-years from Earth. But data collected by the Webb telescope showed that UHZl is actually much farther away and located beyond the cluster at 

    13. 2 billion light-years from Earth. 

    The team used the Chandra Observatory to detect superheated gas releasing X-rays within UHZ1, the obvious sign of a supermassive black hole growing in size. The detection was made possible by the Abell cluster of galaxies, which intensified the light of the UHZ1 galaxy and the X-rays released by the black hole by a factor of four. 

    Astronomers think the discovery will help them better understand how supermassive black holes appeared and reached their huge masses so soon after the beginning of the universe. 

    1. (1) What's the possible age of the newly-found black hole?
      A . 470 million years. B . 13. 33 billion years. C . 13. 8 billion years. D . 14. 27 billion years.
    2. (2) What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
      A . The process of the research. B . The significance of the discovery. C . The contributors to the discovery. D . The background of the research.
    3. (3) Which best shows the position of Abell 2744, Earth and UHZ1?
      A . B . C . D .
    4. (4) Which can be a suitable title for the text?
      A . The Oldest and Most Distant Black Hole Spotted. B . Two Powerful NASA Telescopes Coming into Service. C . New Supporting Evidence of the Big Bang Theory Detected. D . Astronomers Figuring Out How the First Black Holes Formed.

    There's an enormous amount of personal health information people now feed or tap into digital monitors, health apps, search engines and other online tools. If the same information were provided in your doctor's office, your privacy would be safeguarded. But that's not how the digitized health world works.

    Instead, we have an ecosystem of abuse in which health technology companies operate largely outside the law that requires doctors and other medical personnel, hospitals and insurers to protect an individual's health information.

    That means technology companies can — and do — dig your digital data for clues about your health status, accessing information like prescriptions you have purchased and other health services you might have sought, and potentially link this information to your name, address, email address and other personally identifying information. The data can then be used by platforms including Facebook and Google to help advertisers target promotions or other communications to you. 

    It's a gaping hole in health privacy protections that comes from the privacy law, which protects interactions between patients, medical professionals and insurers but does not, in most cases, protect patient health data that is recorded on new technologies.

    Closing the patient privacy gap can- and should -be a priority for lawmakers The consequences of digital exposure for those seeking reproductive services have drawn significant concern and attention. These worries are reasonable. But reproductive care is only one area of health services where private patient information is digitally disclosed. 

    Therefore, lawmakers must take action to protect the privacy of people who are now online for all manners of personal, professional and other reasons. Until then, a narrowly targeted approach that protects health privacy may be politically easier to come into effect. The explosion of digital health technology and the dramatic increase in its use in the past few years require it greatly. 

    1. (1) What can we learn about the present situation of the digitized health world?
      A . Personal health data is used for other purposes. B . Personal health information is difficult to identify. C . Targeted promotions are used to improve people's health. D . Medical personnel protect the personal health information well.
    2. (2) What's the author's attitude towards the present privacy law?
      A . Approving. B . Critical. C . Cautious. D . Ambiguous.
    3. (3) What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 6 refer to?
      A . The spread of health service. B . People's privacy. C . A narrowly targeted approach. D . The explosion of digital technology.
    4. (4) What is the purpose of the text?
      A . To advocate improvement in the privacy law. B . To report cases of illegal information exposure. C . To explain how the digitized health world works. D . To introduce a debate on the effect of technology.

    There's no good reason not to have a meaningful life But through careful thinking and self-reflection, we can take steps to change that.

    One thing that can help you find meaning in your life is structured, systematic reflection. Then follow up on that by reflecting on what you'd like to add to your life and what you could get rid of to make it more meaningful. If this proves tricky, try taking a look at the lives of people you respect and thinking about what makes you think their lives are meaningful.

     Imagine yourself a few decades from now, finding out that you only have a few months or even only a few days to live. What are you happy to have done and sad not to have done? Reminding yourself that life has a limit will help you focus on what truly matters. 

    What's more, if you take a closer look, you might realize that your life is already full of meaning. All too often we don't recognize what's important until we are likely to lose it. But there's no need to wait for adversity to help you appreciate the great things in your life.

    Finally, you can make small changes and create new habits that will help you appreciate the value in your life. This can help you cultivate a deeper sense of gratitude and find joy in the simple pleasures of everyday life. 

    A. Firstly, try to be more aware of your preference. 

    B. It can also help to see your life from a new angle. 

    C. There are usual arguments about how life is meaningless. 

    D. Sadly, we are always left struggling to find meaning in life. 

    E. You can always expose yourself to the value that's all around you.

    F. Start by making a list of things that are already meaningful in your life. 

    G. It comes down to trying to see all the small things in your life with fresh eyes.
