Whats New in Washingtons Seaside City?Advice to visit Seattles Pike Place Market may border on clichbut for a good reason.“Whether youre visiting Wash

30、ingtons seaside city for vacation or just stopping by en route to and from the coming Sasquatch music festival, Pike Place is an easy catch-all destination for shopping, eating and just plain walking around, said Kirk Johnson, The New York Timess Seattle bureau chief for the past three years.The Sea

31、ttle Great Wheel is one of many stops to consider in Washingtons seaside city.“Almost any day of the week, especially on the weekend, its a crazy fun scene of people shopping, Mr. Johnson said. “Theres also pretty good food. He recommends wandering into whatever placeespecially a hole in the wallcat

32、ches your eye.There is one specific restaurant Mr. Johnson likes: the Pink Door, which has no signage and can be found only by its rosy entrance. “Its creative, interesting Italian, he said. “In the summer they get a lot of great fresh vegetables and probably have the best tomato bruschetta Ive had.

33、He also recommends the nearby Pioneer Square, the oldest neighborhood in Seattle. Its historic architecture has charm, and the area isnt bad for a lunch break, he said. The clear favorite here is Salumiwhich, as the name suggests, is known for its cured meats. Mr. Johnson did warn, however, that its

34、 necessary to plan for the fact that the restaurant has a long line as soon as it opens.Pioneer Square is also a portal to Seattles maritime world that remains alive and well. Ferry rides are a short walk away. Mr. Johnson said the ferry ride to Bainbridge Island provides “a great view of the city,

35、and its not a long ride back to the mainland.At some point, you may see sculptures emerging on the horizonthat would be the Olympic Sculpture Park, which is operated by the Seattle Art Museum, Mr. Johnson said, and thats worth a visit itself.People who want to experience Seattles nearby charms can e

36、asily do so with a bicycle, Mr. Johnson said, if they want to get away from depending on a car. He takes a ride to Chateau Ste. Michelle, a famous winery outside the city. Starting in June, he said, Chateau Ste. Michelle hosts a summer concert series on its lawn.56. If you are a music lover, you are

37、 advised to go to _.A. the Seattle Art MuseumB. the Seattle Great WheelC. the Olympic Sculpture ParkD. Chateau Ste. Michelle57. According to Kirk Johnson, we know that _.A. people often have a good time shopping happily in Bainbridge IslandB. it is a great challenge to find the busy and popular rest

38、aurant SalumiC. Pioneer Square is famous for its fascinating historic architectureD. cycling is far from a good way to experience Seattles nearby charms58. What are you encouraged to do if you are going to visit Seattle?A. Try the tomato bruschetta in the Pink Door.B. Go there in groups during the w

39、inter holidays.C. Depend on cars for the sake of convenience.D. Enjoy the sculptures inPike Place Market.BMy mother has always instilled in me the importance of education. Education is essential. It will help me get accepted to college if I perform well academically and advance my opportunities for

40、success in the future. Most jobs now require at least a high school diploma, and for many jobs, a college degree is preferred. It is important that all students have excellent educators in their life to help them achieve and have the opportunity to go to college, get a job, support themselves and th

41、eir family, and impact the community.Mr. Davis could relate to what it was like to be a rising ninth-grade black male in todays society. He taught me how to speak up confidently and share my ideas with others. He told me that I was brilliant and that when I spoke, the world should listen. And when I

42、 would put my hand down because I was unsure of my answer, Mr. Davis would immediately say, “No guts, no glory. He never made me feel inadequate; he encouraged me to always pursue knowledge because he, too, was learning every day. Mr. Davis helped me navigate the challenges and take advantage of the

43、 opportunities.I think having more black male teachers like Mr. Davis in the classroom could increase student success. They would share the background and experiences of many of their students and help build long-lasting teacher/student relationships. But, unfortunately, the likelihood that students

44、 of color in Nevada will have a teacher that looks like them is one of the lowest in the country.As the student population becomes more ethnically diverse, teachers in Nevada still are predominantly white. According to a 2023 Education Week report, in the Clark County School District, nearly 70 perc

45、ent of students identified as students of color, but 76 percent of teachers were white. The numbers for black male teachers are more discouraging. Just 2 percent of teachers nationwide are black men.But you can help change the numbers. Whether you decide to study education in college or graduate sch

46、ool, or apply to programs in Las Vegas such as Teach For America, I hope more black males will consider teaching as a career.My peers and I need more examples of excellence and success in classroomsexamples who look like us. You can be the model to impact our life and push us to achieve. You can ens

47、ure that, when we look to the front of the room, we can see a little bit of ourselves reflected back.59. Mr. Davis left the author witha very deep impression mainly because he _.A. was extremely knowledgeable and hard-workingB. was a role model to teach hearts and change mindsC. spent much time help

48、ing the author with his homework D. kept in close touch with the author even after graduation60. The underlined word “guts in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _.A. braveryB. connectionC. opportunityD. qualification61. By writing the passage, the author intends to _.A. show students love for thei

49、r teachersB. C. express sympathy for students of colorD. advertise for black male teachers CWind turbines are efficient sources of cheap energy but also a source of concern as their huge spinning blades (葉片) frequently kill birds and bats. A new type of wind generator developed in Spain offers a cre

50、ative solution to that problem.In 2002, Spanish inventor David Yanez saw a short film about the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in the U.S., collapsing in strong wind. It was a vivid example of the powerful vibrations wind can create when it blows past a long pole, such as a car antenna or even a stick of bam

51、boo. It gave him the idea for a new type of wind-energy generator.“The initial philosophy or spirit was to create a generator of dreams that had all the qualities one would want: It should be as cheap as possible, need as little maintenance as possible, the setup as simple as possible, he said.Yanez

52、 and his friend Raoul Martin took the idea to an engineering firm, where they were told it would never work. Undiscouraged, they started experimenting on their own in a small wind tunnel they built.Good initial results were repeated by a larger working model called Vortex (渦旋) installed in a nearby

53、field. “What we have is a mast(桅桿), which is the top piece and acts as a blade, Yanez said. “Its constructed from the same material as a conventional generator, and what it does is it oscillates(振蕩), transmitting the oscillation to a conventional alternator, which by its own oscillation converts the

54、 winds energy into electric energy.Yanez said the output of the 6-meter-tall generator, and even that of smaller models, was better than expected. The Vortex creates about 30 percent less energy than a comparable bladed wind turbine, but it is lighter and cheaper to build and maintain. It is made mo

55、stly of reinforced plastic and has very few moving parts. Also, it does not create noise andeven more important for many environmentalistsit does not present a threat to passing birds.62. The author mentions a short film about the Tacoma Narrows Bridge to show _.A. what the initial philosophy or spi

56、rit wasB. what inspired Yanez to create the generatorC. how the bridge was destroyed in strong windD. how wind creates powerful vibrations63. What do we know from the passage?A. The original idea was considered as practical in an engineering firm.B. Yanez and Martins initial tests by themselves prov

57、ed to be successful.C. The material for constructing the mast is different from that of the past.D. The new generator is better at creating energy than a comparable bladed one.64. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Bladeless wind-power generator is friendly to birds.B. Wind turbines are

58、 efficient sources of cheap energy.C. A new generator will come onto the market by 2023.D. Yanez has made a generator for the benefit of people.DOliver Twist was born in a workhouse, and when he arrived in this hard world, it was very doubtful whether he would live beyond the first three minutes. He

59、 lay on a hard little bed and struggled to start breathing.Oliver fought his first battle without much assistance from the two people present at his birth. One was an old woman, who was nearly always drunk, and the other was a busy local doctor, who was not paid enough to be very interested in Olive

60、rs survival. _However, Oliver managed to draw his first breath, and then announced his arrival to the rest of the workhouse by crying loudly. His mother raised her pale young face from the pillow and whispered, “Let me see the child, and die.The doctor turned away from the fire, where he had been wa
