Architecture is amazing. It has changed the way I look and interact with the world and my environment. It has trained me to be hyper-sensitive (过度敏感) to the built environment, to recognize problems and find solutions that an untrained eye would never notice.
As much as I love this profession, it is very easy to get lost in architecture. I get so focused that I have forgotten about everything else. Luckily my passion for cycling kept me sane (清醒的) while I was becoming an architect. I faced a lot of obstacles and challenges taking a bicycle ride across the United States. Looking back, cycling across the America was actually one of the smartest things I ever did.
I have actually bicycled across the continental USA twice; East to west. Atlantic Ocean to Pacific Ocean, both times. Bicycling across America isn’t as hard as you think.
I rode alone on my first trip in 2005 from Virginia Beach to the coast of Florence, Oregon. In the end it was 4,547 miles over the course of 77 days.
I left for the second trip in 2007 with my two best friends from Bar Harbor, Maine to Portland, Oregon, which was a 4,886 mile ride over 90 days. At that time, I fell in love with the idea of leaving the east coast behind, starting a whole new life and career in a new city. I ended up in Portland. After arriving in town on a bike, I eventually found a job, a place to live and an amazing dog.
I share all this not to convince anyone to go biking across America, but only to share how doing this has changed my life. Architecture has given me a wonderful life and career but it isn’t everything. Thankfully I have also been very passionate about: my friends, traveling, bicycles, punk rock, technology, the internet, my dog, and even yoga. My architecture background has definitely sweetened my relationship with all those things.Becoming an architect is a noble pursuit (追求), but you should keep pursuing everything else that you are passionate about. It will enhance your architecture career and ultimately make you a more interesting person, which in my opinion is really more important than being another silly architect.
- What’s the advantage of cycling according to the author?
- Changing his negative attitude to architecture.
- Keeping himself focused on his career all the time.
- Enabling him to find solutions without training.
- Making him a much better architect and person.
- What does the author think of his two cross-country bike trips?
- They are harder than what he expected before.
- They show the benefits of riding with friends.
- They give him some positive experiences.
- They guarantee him a new life and career in Portland.
- What can be inferred from Paragraph 6?
- Don’t get completely lost in your hobbies.
- Don’t abandon hobbies for your profession.
- Don’t feel ashamed of stopping your hobbies.
- Don’t weigh your family against your profession.
- In the last paragraph, the author reminds us to ________.
- take up the pursuit of becoming an architect
- find what we are really passionate about
- appreciate other people’s good will
- keep other pursuits besides your career

You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw (吸管) or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that’s part of Von Wong’s artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.
In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped (倾倒) from a truck all at once.
Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.
- What are Von Wong’s artworks intended for?
- Beautifying the city he lives in.
- Introducing eco-friendly products.
- Calling for environment protection.
- Reducing garbage on the beach.
- Why does the author discuss plastic straws in Paragraph 3?
- To show the difficulty of their recycling.
- To explain why they are useful.
- To voice his views on modern art.
- To find a replacement for them.
- What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers?
- Calming. B. Disturbing.
- Relaxing. D. Challenging.
- What does the text mainly focus on?
- Artists’ opinions on plastic safety.
- Media interest in contemporary art.
- Artworks of transformed plastic waste.
- Responsibility demanded of big companies.
D
Some words copy the sounds made by the things they describe, like “buzz” or “hiss” or “zip”. But what if the way a word sounds could suggest some other feature of an object like its shape?
A new study suggests not only that it can but that the same word can do so across many languages. Marcus Perlman, a lecturer at the University of Birmingham, says that, a century ago, linguists (语言学家) insisted the words used to refer to various objects and actions are arbitrary (随意的) and that words don’t necessarily look or sound like the things they refer to. That makes sense because different languages have different words for the same thing. One person’s pup is another one’s perro. But there’s a lot of evidence now suggesting it is false.
To further explore this connection between words and their meanings, Perlman and his colleagues turned to something called the bouba/kiki effect. With the help of 22 volunteers, the researchers tested it in 25 different languages. Participants were told to look at two shapes. One looks like a cloud which is somewhat round, and the
other one is more pointy, and maybe looks more like a star. And then, they listen to the sound: either “bouba” or “kiki”, both of which are totally made up. Then they were asked, “Which one is bouba and which one is kiki?” Most participants said the rounder shape was bouba and the pointy one was kiki. This suggests there is some widely observed connection between the spoken words and the visual features of the shapes.
As to what that could mean about the evolution (演变) of language: imagine our ancestors when they started using spoken words to refer to things. “They couldn’t say ‘Listen, my friend, now we’re gonna call this new object a table.’” So to get the conversation off the ground, they probably tried to come up with sounds that somehow suggested the object at hand.
- What does the author mean by saying “One person’s pup is another one’s perro”?
- People have personal preferences for the words they use.
- A word can mean the same thing across many languages.
- Different languages have different words for the same thing.
- The sound of a word shows people the shape of an object.
- How did Perlman study the connection between words and their meanings?
- By making up new words.
- By interviewing language learners.
- By conducting an experiment.
- By comparing different languages.
- What do we know about the bouba/kiki effect?
- It helps people understand language evolution.
- It is a language research method created a century ago.
- It makes little sense when it comes to written language.
- It shows the differences between round and pointy objects.
- What can be a suitable title for the text?
- What Is the Shape of a Word?
- How Does Language Develop?
- Nonsense Words Connected to Shapes
- Language Features Little Known to Linguists

For four years, as a coordinator (协调员) for the Harvard First Generation Program, I have been sharing bits and pieces of my college experience on this blog. 46
The most important lesson I learned in college is that you have to give yourself space and time to grow. When I arrived at Harvard, I thought all my college experiences were just the means to the larger end of stability, success, and happiness. 47 Keep your goals in mind and allow them to grow as you push beyond your comfort zone.
Be willing to change your mind. It feels great to win, but you’ll always learn more from your mistakes than you’ll learn from the things you got right the first time. 48 It can be hard in the moment, but it’s valuable in the long run.
49 I was used to handling life without much external guidance. I thought asking for help was equal to admitting defeat, but that wasn’t true. Once I realized that, it became easier to allow myself to rely on friends for support when I really needed it.
As graduation approaches, I often think about a quote by Morrison: “When you get jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else. 50 I don’t know what I’ll be doing in five or ten years, but I will be using the resources at my command to live happily with others.
- Don’t hesitate to turn to others when necessary.
- Learn to absorb new ideas while remaining true to yourself.
- It’s OK to care about those things, but don’t box yourself in.
- If you have some power, then your job is to empower somebody else.
- Here are some suggestions for those who are to start or finish college.
- So I’d like to share some unforgettable moments about my college life.
- Over time, I learned to make space to be a better listener, and to admit when I’m wrong.

When I became a junior school student, I decided to take Latin (拉丁语) at school. I felt much 51 about taking that class, and I was fully expecting to be able to understand every word I’d ever 52 once I learned Latin.
But Latin classes were so 53 . Each day, the teacher Mr. Keady would ask us to open our books and recite aloud the various Latin forms of words. Thus it became the daily 54 . That went on until I 55 my hand one afternoon when we were asked yet again to open our books.
When Mr. Keady asked what was wrong, I 56 why I thought that his class was boring how I had 57 more, and that his method of teaching was 58 . When I finished speaking, I 59 Mr. Keady would angrily send me to the head teacher. But it turned out that he didn’t do so.
60 , he sat at his desk quietly, looking 61 and tired. After several moments of 62 Mr. Keady spoke. He quietly and strongly said that he would think carefully about what I’d said. And that was it.
In the following weeks, Latin class didn’t become the exciting learning environment I hoped it would, but Mr. Keady did try harder. He 63 some new worksheets and 64 to make us students take part more in his classes.
Maybe some people would 65 what I did but even so many years later, I feel bad about it. If I saw him now, I’d tell him how I 66 what I’d done that day in class, and that I was disrespectful. And at the same time, I’d also tell him that he taught me a wonderful 67 that day. Following my 68 words, he showed me that being hurt doesn’t mean you have to give away your dignity (尊严). 69 , Mr. Keady’s response 70 that no matter how hurt you feel, no one can take away your dignity.
