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 great 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 serves 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 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 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.
Wang's works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and traditions. Through such a balance, he 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 said.
"Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions. 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 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.
4.Wang's winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are ____.
A. following the latest world trend
B. getting international recognition
C. working harder than ever before
D. relying on foreign architects
5.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
6.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
7. What should we do about Chinese traditions according to Wang Shu?
A. Spreading them to the world.
B. Preserving them at museums.
C. Teaching them in universities.
D. Recreating them in practice.

Snowbirds are people who leave their homes when the temperature drops and head to warmer climates. They are mostly retirees(退休人员) and business owners who can afford(付得起) to take the winter off. While the snow flies in the Northern states, they are enjoying golf, sailing and barbecues in mild temperatures in the South. Then, after winter passes, they return to their homes in the North.
Most snowbirds are away from Canada and the Northern states between the middle of October and the end of November. They pack up and head to Florida, Alabama, Texas, California, and all of the other Southern states. Some may even go as far as Australia or Italy to escape the cold winter weather. There are special communities(社区) for snowbirds in many areas. Snowbirds are also offered special discounts(折扣) in some restaurants, hotels and area
attractions. Several states even have special snowbird resorts (度假胜地). There are several online communities and local resources to help snowbirds get set in their seasonal homes.
Some snowbirds own homes both in the South and in the North. Both homes have everything they will need for their stay, minimizing(最小化) the amount of packing necessary when moving from one to the other. Other snowbirds will rent apartments for their stay outside their home state.
RVs(房车), are a huge part of the snowbird lifestyle. RVs allow snowbirds to move from place to place on a whim (奇想), bringing everything they need with them. They spend nights in RV parks, large parking lots or anywhere else they choose to stay. RVs have beds, bathrooms, and most other modern conveniences at home. Although the space is small, there is more than enough room for a couple to live in.
8.Which of the following is most probably a snowbird?
A. One who retires and has a lot of free time.
B. One who likes to play in snow in winter.
C. One who travels around the world the whole year.
D. One who head for the South to avoid the cold weather.
9.We can infer from Paragraph 2 that .
A. the Internet makes it easier for snowbirds to find seasonal homes.
B. snowbirds are not welcome in many areas.
C. snowbirds have to stay in special communities.
D. it's not convenient to live as a snowbird.
10.RVs allow snowbirds to .
A. avoid the heavy traffic
B. carry everything they have at home
C. have a comfortable life wherever they are
D. save more money than renting an apartment
11.What's the purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce a kind of bird.
B. To introduce fun places for winter
vacation.
C. To introduce a kind of lifestyle.
D. To introduce the advantages of
travelling in a RV.
D
This year's flu season is pretty scary. To try to minimize the effects, public officials are still urging anyone who hasn't yet gotten their flu shot to get one as soon as possible. However, even if every single person got a shot in the arm, the vaccine(疫苗)—with its excellent 36 percent effectiveness—would not prevent everyone from getting infected with the annoying virus. Knowledge is power, so here's what goes on in your body when you come down with the flu.
The influenza virus primarily attacks your nose, throat, and the tubes that lead to your lungs. But the flu is so much more than that. Your muscles ache, your head hurts, and your appetite goes down, among other things. To our surprise, almost all of these symptoms have less to do with the virus itself than with your immune(免疫的)response to them. Unfortunately, the very defense you have in place to get rid of the flu is the reason you feel so painful when you recover.
The virus usually enters through your mouth, typically by way of your hands. But it takes a few days for symptoms to set in. While this process might cause some harm to your nose and throat, it's nothing major, and nothing like the symptoms that typically accompany a bad or even mild case of the flu.
The real fun starts when your immune system begins to fight. Your immune system comes in two parts: the innate system and the adaptive. The innate immune system is essentially
an all-purpose tool. As soon as your body senses the presence of any injury or invader (入侵者), the innate immune system launches into action by producing tiny proteins called cytokines and chemokines. The cytokines reproduce almost immediately and start to attack the virus. This increase in immune cells creates an serious inflammation(炎症) throughout the body. But the worst is still to come. Meanwhile, the chemokines work with the adaptive immune system to help create T cells. These cells are a special type of white blood cell that works in a much more specific way: They find the influenza virus, identify what's special about it, and create something unique on their surface that finds and destroys similar invaders.
12. What can we infer from Paragraph 1?
A. All the vaccine is not effective.
B. No one can avoid catching this year's flu.
C. This year's flu is the most serious one in recent years.
D. Public health officials have to use a gun when necessary.
13. Why many parts of your body suffer while you're recovering from a flu?
A. Because recovery from illness is painful.
B. Because your immune system is working against your defense system.
C. Because your body is fighting hard against the flu.
D. Because the influenza virus attacks your nose, throat and other parts.
14.The underlined word "fun" in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by .
A. joy
B. battle
C. action
D. program
15.What's the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. The fight between innate immune system and the adaptive.
B. The categories of immune system.
C. The way immune system works.
D. The process of the development of immune system.
