Your Genealogy Today is a how-to genealogy magazine. People who are trying to discover their family roots know that there is no “master plan” that tells you how to conduct your research. While some ancestral lines can be traced back several generations with relatively little effort, others can only be discovered after painstaking research. Your Genealogy Today recognizes that there are hundreds, maybe thousands, of different records and methods that may be relevant to your own research.

In times of distress, a friend would always suggest going for a walk. “Are you overwhelmed by your work Take a walk around the neighborhood.” Comments like this are often said with nothing but the best of intentions, but they used to make me angry as much as being told to drink more water. I did not understand how these things were going to help.
Three years ago, I hit a low point. Once I saw a pair of empty eyes looking at me through the mirror, I knew I was at my breaking point. So, I took the advice I fought so hard to ignore. I went for a walk – with the hope that it would somehow change my life.
I embraced (拥抱) the fresh air everyone seemed to be talking about. But it did nothing. I was just as sad as I was before. I went on a walk every single day for more than a month. Some days I could barely make it outside, but I managed to push through. I took a picture every time I went. I think I wanted to document myself trying to make an effort.
One day, the unthinkable happened. I found myself smiling. I realized I had patiently waited all morning to go on this walk. What I once hated had become the best part of my day. I found myself longing to be outside. I never had a destination in mind. I just danced along the trails (小路), stopped to look at the beautiful blue skies and listened to music.
I’m glad I took pictures because there was a noticeable difference in my face. I slowly started to look less tired and defeated. I don’t know why I refused to go on that walk for so long. I guess I didn’t want to believe that something small and seemingly meaningless could actually make an impact on my physical and mental well-being.
If you’re having a bad day, a bad month, a bad year or even a bad life, you should try going for a walk. Sometimes, all we need to do is try.
24. How did the author use to feel when people suggested she go for a walk
A. Delighted. B. Annoyed. C. Relieved. D. Confused.
25. Why did the author decide to go for a walk three years ago
A. Her friend encouraged her. B. She wanted to challenge herself.
C. She was eager to get close to nature. D. Her hopelessness drove her to try.
26. What happened after the author started to go for a walk
A. She felt cheered up after the first week.
B. She always set off with a destination in mind.
C. She was inspired by the pictures she took of herself.
D. She stopped for a while due to lack of progress.
27. What does the author advise us to do
A. Stay positive when bad things happen. B. Care about our mental well-being.
C. Take other people’s suggestions seriously. D. Go for a walk when feeling down.
C
Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid was known as “the Queen of the Curve”; Italian-born British architect Richard Rogers liked high-tech steel structure ... Many star architects are easily recognized by their signature styles. Unlike them, however, British architect David Chipperfield is famous for having no signature style.
For more than 40 years, Chipperfield has worked across many different building types from museums to apartment houses in different cities. While the type and location of his projects vary, his idea of matching buildings to the cities and local cultures they are built in has never changed.
On March 7, Chipperfield was named the winner of the 2023 Pritzker Architecture Prize, the highest honor in architecture. As the Pritzker jury wrote, “We do not see an instantly recognizable David Chipperfield building in different cities, but different David Chipperfield buildings designed specifically for each circumstance.”
When designing buildings, Chipperfield often looks into local architectural traditions. He includes colonnades (柱廊) in his European projects, as well as courtyards in the Chinese ones. He also uses local materials. When building the US’ Saint Louis Art Museum’s East Building, he used aggregates (建筑集料) made of stone and sand from the Missouri River, reported CNN.
Chipperfield thinks that the world is filled with bad modern architecture. During a 2011 TedX talk, he said so many global buildings are finished fast without concern for the future.
“As an architect, I’m in a way the guardian of meaning, memory, and heritage. Cities are historical records, and architecture after a certain moment is a historical record,” said Chipperfield.
So, instead of going after newness and fastness, Chipperfield respects each city’s history. Built in the mid-1800s, Berlin’s Neues Museum was bombed nearly to pieces during World War II and left in ruins. In 1997, Chipperfield rebuilt it by keeping its former remains as part of the new design. Thousands of pieces of scraps (废料), even including bullet holes, were incorporated into the building, according to Bloomberg.
As the official statement of the award explains, Chipperfield’s works “[embrace] the preexisting, designing and intervening in dialogue with time and place” while creating “structures able to last, physically and culturally”.
28. What is Chipperfield’s architectural approach
A. He highlights local qualities. B. He always uses sustainable materials.
C. He adopts high-tech steel structure. D. He prefers sharp angles and striking lines.
29. What does the section concerning the US’ Saint Louis Art Museum show about Chipperfield and his works
A. Each of his works is unique.
B. He likes making use of local materials.
C. He focuses on building museums.
D. He often includes colonnades in his buildings.
30. According to Chipperfield, what is a problem with bad modern architecture
A. It has no signature style. B. It lacks creativity in design.
C. It is not visually appealing. D. It prioritizes speed over quality.
31. How did Chipperfield rebuild Berlin’s Neues Museum
A. He restored it as it used to be.
B. He tried to make it look more modern.
C. He created a structure able to last for a long time.
D. He incorporated the former remains into the design.
D
Mosquitoes carry malaria (疟疾), which kills thousands of people each year. Now some researchers are trying to use genetic engineering to make the annoying insects into partners in the fight against the disease.
For years, public health officials have tried to limit the disease by controlling mosquito populations. “But that approach is temporary,” says Anthony James, a professor of biology and genetics at the University of California, Irvine, “Because mosquitoes are extremely tough little insects, and their populations can quickly rebound.”
Therefore, James and his colleagues want to try a different approach: making mosquitoes themselves into malaria-fighting warriors, which is a complete departure from traditional ways of controlling malaria.
To understand how it works, it helps to understand the life cycle of malaria. The malaria pathogen (病原体) is a parasite (寄生虫) that grows inside humans. It’s passed via mosquitoes that move from person to person, sucking blood. “If we can make the mosquitoes difficult for the pathogens to survive, we can wipe out the disease,” he says. But making mosquitoes uninviting to malaria is a tough job.
To solve the problem, the team used a gene-editing technique called CRISPR. They started with genes from mice, whose immune systems do fight human malaria, engineered those genes, and then gave them to the mosquitoes.
It turned out the malaria-fighting antibodies which gene-edited mosquitoes produced worked very well. They reduced the number of parasites in the mosquito before they were passed to a human host.
James’ team are now working on planning a field trial, which he hopes could be conducted on an island or in another isolated location.
But genetically changing wild animals does not sit well with environmentalists. “There’s no need to engineer a mosquito,” says Dana Perls, senior program manager for the emerging technology program at the non-profit Friends of the Earth. Perls points out that naturally occurring methods for reducing malaria appear to be showing promise, as does a new vaccine (疫苗) against the disease. “Why take unnecessary risks and release a species that can’t be recalled once it’s released into the wild ” she asks.
What can we know from the second and third paragraphs
Mosquitoes reproduce quickly.
Mosquitoes depart from malaria.
Mosquitoes are malaria-fighting warriors.
Mosquitoes’ populations are under control.
According to the text, which of the following are attractive to the malaria pathogen
Mice. B. Parasites. C. Mosquitoes. D. Gene-edited mosquitoes.
What is environmentalists’ attitude toward this new approach
Tolerant. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Disapproving.
What is the best title for the text
Limiting Malaria by Controlling Mosquito Populations
Controlling Malaria by editing Mosquitoes’ genes
Curing Malaria with Gene-edited Mosquitoes
Preventing Malaria with a new vaccine

Minimalism, born out of a 20th-Century art movement, now refers to a lifestyle that helps people to get rid of life’s excess in favor of focusing on what’s really important in life. 36 Why is minimalism so popular Here are a few of the top reasons people are choosing to live a minimalist lifestyle.

There’s a sense of peace and relaxation with not having space that’s cluttered (杂乱的) and messy. 39
Minimalism gives people more offline time
A spin-off (派生物) that’s risen out of the movement is digital minimalism. This concept is probably particularly appealing to millennials who’ve grown tired of social media and being addicted to their technology. 40 They’re choosing to limit their cell phone use and focus on more productive and meaningful pursuits.
It’s the popularity of this concept that’s helped to draw others to living more minimalist.

A Four-legged Guardian Angel
Snow had just melted off the ground that April day at our house in Regina Beach, Saskatchewan. I had just cleaned up the pool in preparation for selling the house. The year before, I had lost my job with the provincial government, and now our financial situation was grim. In despair, I had finally put the home on the market, and a real estate agent was due to show up later that day. Even worse, I would have to give up my beloved Great Dane (大丹犬), Brigitte, because I could no longer afford the cost of feeding it. The thought of losing the dog and our beautiful home was almost more than I could bear.
Deep in despair, I sat typing up resumes and cover letters. Out of the corner of my eye I could see my thirteen-month-old son, Forrest, as he lay on the carpet, playing near our big, gentle nanny-dog, Brigitte. It seemed as if Brigitte was always meant to be in this family and she turned out to be a perfect companion.
Brigitte came to our house on Christmas eve when the doorbell rang and I was sure some of my Christmas packages had arrived. I ran to the door and swung it open, but no one was there. I sensed something and looked down, only to find a beautiful Great Dane sitting there, looking up at me with big, intelligent eyes. There was no way that she could have rung the doorbell by herself, was there Perhaps, someone had found the puppy somewhere and left her there, and then rang the doorbell and ran away. They accurately guessed I would welcome an additional family member and take care of her.
Thinking of these, I couldn't help heaving a sigh and went straight back to work. However, I hadn't typed more than two sentences when Brigitte began barking furiously and running back and forth to the sliding glass door overlooking our pool.
I raced to see what was happening and noticed that the sliding door was slightly open. Suddenly, I realized Forrest was nowhere to be seen. In panic, I opened the door and ran outside.
注意：
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Para. 1 There I was surprised to see Brigitte, who was terrified of water, dive into the pool.
Para. 2 Finally, the doctor said Forrest was all right and could be released from hospital.

第四部分：
Dear Editor,
I am writing to share an interesting trend that an increasing number of foreigners are keen on learning the Chinese language, which has become a topic of interest and discussion worldwide. Quite a few things give rise to the phenomenon. / The reasons behind this are obvious.
First, the growing global influence of China is probably the most powerful engine. As our country continues to assume an increasingly important role on the world stage, more foreigners realize that being able to communicate in Chinese can give them an advantage. Also, the charm of Chinese culture, art, and literature has captured the hearts of many foreigners. Learning Chinese allows them to dive into the brilliant Chinese culture, fostering a greater appreciation and understanding.
Personally, I firmly believe that as this trend continues, it not only strengthens cultural exchange but also opens up new opportunities for international cooperation.
续写范文
There I was surprised to see Brigitte, who was terrified of water, dive into the pool. Then to my horror, I caught sight of Forrest's yellow sleeper. Brigitte was bravely doing her best to keep him afloat by holding on to his sleeper with her mouth. At the same time, she was desperately trying to swim to the shallow end. Only then did I realize that Forrest had somehow opened the door, wandered out and fallen into the pool. In a split second, I dove in, lifted my precious baby out and carried him inside. Hands shaking, I called 911 and we were rushed to the hospital immediately, where the doctor kept him for observation for one night.
Finally, the doctor said Forrest was all right and could be released from hospital. Back home, once Brigitte saw him, she barked with apparent joy and wouldn‘t let Forrest out of her sight. In time she settled down, but remained dedicated to Forrest and followed him everywhere, concerned about his safety. Even when Forrest was asleep, Brigitte crammed herself under the crib (婴儿床), keeping a vigil (守夜). Our dog was indeed an angel, erasing any despair I might have had about losing our home. A house could always be replaced, but knowing we had each other around was the greatest blessing of all. I was grateful she was part of our lives, who I would never give up.
