5．In the fall of 1985，I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University，aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere.Twenty-one years later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.
My grandma，an amazing woman，graduated from college at the age of 65.She was the first in our family to reach that goal.But one year after I started college，she developed cancer.I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her.It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.
Then I got married with another dream：building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children.In 1999，we adopted our first son.To lay eyes on him was fantastic---and very emotional.A year later came our second adopted boy.Then followed son No.3.In 2003，I gave birth to another boy.
You can imagine how fully occupied I became，raising four boys under the age of 8!Our home was a complete zoo---a joyous zoo.Not surprising，I never did make it back to college full time.But I never gave up on the dream either.I had only one choice：to find a way.That meant taking as few as one class each semester.
The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys.They often wanted me to stay home with them.There certainly were times I wanted to quit，but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.
In 2007，I graduated from the University of North Carolina.It took me over 21 years to get my college degree!
I am not special，just single-minded.It always struck me that when you're looking at a big challenge from the outside，it looks huge，but when you're in the midst of it，it just seems normal.Everything you want won't arrive in your life on one day.It's a process.Remember：little steps add up to big dreams.

6．A huge，12-pointed star has been fixed on top of one of the towers of Antoni Gaudí's famous Sagrada Familia church in Barcelona.This means the construction work，begun 139 years ago，nears completion.It is scheduled to be completely finished in 2026-marking 100 years since the architect's death.
When Gaudí died in 1926，less than a quarter of the exterior（外部）was complete.Since then construction has been stopped every now and then for various reasons from Spanish civil wars to funding problems.Though in 2005 the church was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site，the construction work was claimed to be illegal in 2016，and regained its building permit in 2019.
Born in 1852，Gaudí grew up fascinated by geometry and the natural wonders of the countryside.After studying architecture in school，he eventually formed his own style.In his opinion，form and function were inseparable：Beauty should be part of structure，which rules the natural world. "Nothing is art，" he concluded，"if it does not come from nature." On his graduation ceremony，his director said the words that became famous later："I do not know if we have awarded this degree to a madman or to a genius；only time will tell."
Time has obviously given the answer.In fact，Gaudí's work over the years has permanently influenced Barcelona architecture like none other before or after.The city is considered the best outdoor modernist Museum of Europe mostly because of Gaudí.
On the 10th of June 1926，Gaudí was knocked down by a tram（有軌電車）while he was doing his usual evening walk.He lost consciousness，and nobody recognized that this disheveled（蓬亂的）old man was the famous architect until he was taken to the hospital.He was buried two days later in the unfinished Sagrada Familia，following a funeral attended by thousands of people：most of the citizens of Barcelona came out to bid a final-farewell to the most universal architect that the city had ever known.
（1）Why did the construction of the church last over a century？
A．It was to memorize Gaudí.
B．It suffered frequent delays.
C．It was a World Heritage Site.
D．It didn't get its building permit.
（2）What did Gaudí's director really want to say on his graduation ceremony？
A．His style was too special in his time.
B．He was not qualified for the degree.
C．His attitude to others was crazy.
D．He was too talented to be taught.
（3）Which of the following is the best title for the text？
A．Sagrada Familia-Gaudí's Unfinished Work
B．Barcelona-a City of Antoni Gaudí
C．Antoni Gaudí-a Genius Architect
D．Gaudí's Architecture-the Beauty of Nature組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5 -
7．Cheese and red wine are basic diets over the festive period，and if you love red wine and cheese，a new study will come as music to your ears.Researchers from Iowa State University have revealed that drinking red wine and eating cheese can help to reduce cognitive decline.
In the study，the researchers analyzed data from 1，787 adults aged 46 to 77，and asked them to complete questionnaires about their food and alcohol consumption.The results showed that cheese was the most protective food against age-related cognitive problems，even into late life.Daily consumption of red wine was also shown to improve cognitive function，while weekly consumption of lamb was shown to improve long-term cognitive skills.However，over-consumption of salt was found to increase the risk of cognitive decline.
Dr.Auriel Willette，who led the study，said："I was pleasantly surprised that our results suggest that appropriately eating cheese and drinking red wine daily are not just good for helping us cope with our current COVID-19 pandemic，but perhaps also dealing with an increasingly complex world.Although we considered whether this was just due to what rich people eat and drink，clinical trials at random are needed to determine if making easy changes in our diet could help our brains in significant ways."
While the reason for the link remains unclear，the researchers believe that cheese and red wine may protect some people from the effects of Alzheimer's.
Brandon Klinedinst，an author of the study，added："Depending on the genetic factors you carry，some individuals seem to be more protected from the effects of Alzheimer's，while others seem to be at greater risk.Perhaps the silver bullet we're looking for is improving how we eat.Knowing what that involves contributes to a better understanding of Alzheimer's and putting this disease in an opposite path."
（1）What is the study mainly about？
A．Basic diets over the festive period.
B．Possible reasons for cognitive decline.
C．Feelings of pleasant music to people's ears.
D．Effects of certain diets on cognitive decline.
（2）Which of the following increases the risk of cognitive problems？
A．Taking in too much salt.
B．Eating cheese properly.
C．Drinking red wine daily.
D．Consuming lamb weekly.
（3）What can be inferred from Paragraph 3？
A．Changes in our diet help our brains in significant ways.
B．The diets of wealthy people were not taken into account.
C．The study results need to be proved by more clinical trials.
D．COVID-19 pandemic makes our world increasingly complex.
（4）What does the underlined phrase "silver bullet" in the last paragraph probably mean？
A．Genetic factor.
B．Easy solution.
C．Special metal.
D．Certain food.組卷：1引用：1難度：0.4
