Lord Norman Foster, renowned as one of the world’s foremost architects, has devoted decades to redefining the concept of tall buildings. “What we’ve done is create a sense o f identify drawn from real needs,” Foster said. “It’s not a fashionable idea, but generated from the realities we were in.”His masterpiece includes iconic structures such as the HSBC building in Hong Kong. Now, he’s set his sights on Qatar.
Currently neari ng completion and set to reach a height of 301 meters, Foster’s Lusail Towers are ready
to claim the title of Qatar’s tallest buildings. Lusail Towers are intended to serve as a center for Qatar's financial institutions, with four distinctive blocks, two standing at 70 stories and two at 50 stories.
But the construction itself wasn’t all plain sailing. To address the unique challenges presented by Qatar’s hot climate, Foster’s team had to depart from the materials commonly used in skyscrapers in cooler countries —part of what Foster called a decades-long quest to “reinvent the tall building.” The design combines advanced shading with ventilation(通风) ,while the towers’ surfaces are coated with
“marine-grade”aluminum (铝) that wraps around the buildings, protecting the glass from strong sunlight while maintaining the views and still letting in natural light.Central to the project are special shading fins (鳍), which not only optimize views and natural lighting for occupants but reduce solar radiation by 70% compared to traditional all-glass towers.
While the towers are ready to become a recognizable landmark for Lusail, Foster believes that a city’s skyline reflects what lies beneath the surface. It was crucial to integrate the towers into a “low-scale master plan.” They are strategically positioned on top of a subway line and at the end of a commercial avenue linking the waterfront(滨水区)to the nearby football stadium. According to Foster, the ground features of the plaza will play a significant role in the objective of transforming the area into
a lively public space for the future.
28.According to Foster’s concept,what should tall buildings be like?
A.Renowned.
B.Identical.
C.Fashionable
D.Practical.
29.What can we learn about the Lusail Towers?
A.They will function as a global financial center.
B.They are expected to be Qartar’s tallest building.
C.They are Foster’s most renowned iconic masterpiece.
D.They have four blocks with the same style and height.
30.What was the solution to the challenges caused by Qatar’s hot climate?
A.Coating the tower with an unconventional material.
B.Reducing the views and natural lighting with shading fins.
C.Replacing the glass with"marine-grade"aluminum.
D.Protecting the glass from natural light and solar radiation.
31.What's the goal of"low-scale master plan"?
A.To link the waterfront to the football stadium.
B.To create a remarkable plaza for the citizens.
C.To offer a dynamic public space for the future.
D.To connect a subway and a commercial avenue.

Robots have long been drawing inspiration from animals, with the creation of robot dogs or snake-shaped robots. And yet, the field of robotics is far less enthusiastic about the other kind of living things—plants. Barbara Mazzolai, an Italian roboticist owes this to a misconception about plant behavior: that they cannot move or think. “It’s not true at all,” she says. To challenge this view, Dr Mazzolai and her team recently launched a machine called “FiloBot”, a robot based on a climbing species.
To survive, a climbing plant must switch between several different behaviors. In forest environments, it must first grow out of the soil and travel along the ground in search of a support to hold onto, such as a nearby
tree. Once a support is located, though, the plant fixes itself around the object and then growing towards the light. To choose the best angle to grow upwards, a climbing plant uses its shoots(芽) to receive information about light and gravity.
FiloBot has sensors on its main shoot. It can 3D-print its body with plastic and grow at a controllable rate. These functions, researchers found, enabled FiloBot to cross gaps, and find things to attach to. The lack of heavy on-board computing device means that it is light and requires minimal care, while its slow pace means that it doesn’t disturb things around it, making it possible to move through a
complex, unseen environment, or monitoring disaster sites.
For now, FiloBot is still being tested. Its tendrils(卷须) have not left the laboratory. Still, it has already been employed in deconstructing plant behaviour. For example, it was long assumed that climbing plants find their supports by growing towards shade, though the exact mechanism was unclear. FiloBot could imitate this behaviour by detecting far-red light, which is typical of shaded areas, providing clues to how plants do it.
Dr Mazzolai hopes that such projects will inspire other roboticists to take their cues from plants and develop completely new technologies.
32. What does the misconception about plants in the field of robotics focus on?
A. Their shapes.
B. Their diversity.
C. Their body language.
D. Their capabilities.
33. What is an advantage of FiloBot?
A. It moves quickly.
B. It has a solid metal body.
C. It adapts to different environment.
D. It is attached to huge computers.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The limitations of FiloBot.
B. The current use of FiloBot.
C. The components of FiloBot.
D. The un ique feature of FiloBot’s design.
35. Which of the following is a suitable title for this text?
A. A Role Model for Robotics Research
B. A Glimpse into the World of Robotics
C. A Plant-Inspired Innovation in Robotics
D. A Misunderstanding of the Plant Kingdom

67. 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。

Alvin Bamburg, 66, was deep in the woods in Grand Cane, Louisiana, last December when something caught his eye. Among the fallen branches and leaves, it looked like litter. But Bamburg was attracted and picked it up.
“God just told me,” he later recounted.
As he drew closer, he saw that it was a broken balloon. Attached was a piece of paper decorated with sparkly star stickers. It was a child’s Christmas wish list.
“Dear Santa,” the handwritten note read. “My name is Luna. I am four years old. I live in Libe ral, Kansas. This year I have been nice. I would like candy, Spider-Man ball, Frozen doll. With love, Luna.”
Bamburg’s heart hammered in his chest. Ever since he was a child, he had dreamed of this very scenario. “Years ago,” he says, “classes at school released balloons with notes. I’ve always wanted to find one.”
He believed this was his childhood wish coming true. And he knew he was going to make Luna’s wish come true too.
However, the task seemed impossible, as Liberal, Kansas, is more than 650 miles from Grand Cane, Louisiana. But Bamburg’s wife, Lee Ann Bamburg, didn’t mind the distance. As an enthusiastic Facebook user, she had seen other people find all sorts of connections through the site and thought it might help her husband find Luna.
The next day Alvin posted a photo of the balloon and the Christmas list on his Facebook page, asking for help locating the sender.
At first, he wasn’t confident the strategy would work. But as he saw the number of shares and comments on his p ost climbed into the hundreds, his hope grew into expectation. “I knew we were going to find Luna.” Alvin said.
And indeed, they did.

Dear Professor Nunan,
Learning that you are gathering feedback on our English textbooks, I’m glad to share my thoughts.
I find the textbooks incredibly beneficial. The well-selected materials, filled with intriguing stories and fresh opinions, have aroused my interest in language learning and opened up a new world for me. My language skills have also been significantly enhanced with the help of the Workbook.

One day Luna’s mother came across the post. Her heart skipped a beat as he recognized her
daughter’s handwriting. It was indeed Luna’s wish l ist that had somehow travelled all those miles, across states and through the woods, to find its way into Alvin’s hands. Excitedly, she contacted Alvin, confirming that the list belonged to her daughter, Luna. Overjoyed, Alvin and Lee Ann immediately set o ut to fulfill Luna’s wishes. With all the gifts ready, Alvin and Lee Ann decided to deliver them to Luna personally. They drove the long distance from Louisiana to Kansas, eager to surprise Luna.
When they arrived at Luna’s home, the entire family was surp rised. Seeing this stranger holding the gifts filled Luna with delight. She eagerly received each gift, her eyes sparkling with joy. Alvin watched Luna’s delighted face with a heart full of contentment. It was as if he had fulfilled a childhood dream of his own. They spent a wonderful day together. Since then, every Christmas, Alvin receives heartfelt thank-you letters and handmade cards from Luna. Their friendship, despite the distance, has become a lasting legend. And that forgotten balloon in the woods remains a cherished memory between them.。
