The monument was made in 1987 by a local artist Jim Reinders and his family. He used old cars and even an ambulance. At first, the people o

14、f Alliance didn't like it, but they soon changed their minds after it became popular with tourists, who brought lots of money to the town. •FloralisGenérica FloralisGenérica is a massive statue of a flower. It stands in a pool of water in front of the National Museum of Fine Arts in Buenos Aires,

15、 Argentina. Eduardo Catalano, a native of Argentina, gave the statue as a gift to the city in 2002. Every morning, the flower opens.

21、esidents in and around the South American capital. When industrial engineer Abel Cruz was a boy, his weekly work was to climb down a valley in the foothills of the Peruvian Andes to fetch the family's water from a spring. "It was downhill from the house, far away and steep, " he says. Cruz began d

22、reaming up better ways to collect water. Then he noticed that subtropical plants capture rain and mist with their wide leaves. Actually Lima doesn't lack in humidity（湿度）， averaging 83% year-round. Located in the foothills of the Andean mountains, it is close to the Pacific Ocean, which ensures that

23、blankets of dense fog roll in for three-quarters of a year. Eventually, Abel Cruz struck upon the idea of a fog net. Each upraised net is 20 square metres, where micro-droplets of water suspended in the foggy atmospherecondense（凝结） and drip down into collection tanks. Approximately 200 to 400 litr

24、es of water is collected daily from each net. Locals can fetch it in buckets for small-scale farming. Working in Lima with support from the Creating Water Foundation, Cruz has installed over 3, 600 nets on hillsides around the city to capture fog drifting in from the Pacific Ocean. Cruz raised funds

25、 for hundreds of nets in Peru with his revolutionary initiative Peruvians Without Water. He aims to set up even more fog harvesters, and to treat the water to make it drinkable. "The planet has less and less fresh water, "Cruz points out, "because the glaciers that are natural reservoirs are disap

26、pearing. So we must find a way to accumulate and save water for times of drought. " The technology is life-changing for the poor households who normally have to rely on water tanks being delivered to them. His approach ends extreme poverty and brings rural development.

31、（繁荣的） society, a fundamental understanding of the modern economy as a driving force in today's world is essential. What kind of prosperity have we achieved so far? The widespread definition of prosperity focuses on economic power and growth as measures of success. Let's take a look at history. The

32、 Second Industrial Revolution enabled mass production and created a sufficient supply of goods. This has greatly increased the importance of money in its role as "a store of value, " and "a medium of exchange. "As a result, we have pursued economic power as the only indicator of prosperity, such as

33、GDP. Waves of globalization and technological evolution have promoted overall economic growth, but have allowed the few who are strong to achieve greater power while exploiting the many who are weak. Consequently, inequality has worsened, and disunity has intensified. The path to a truly prosperou

34、s world requires a shift in focus towards the most suitable happiness for all, in addition to economic power. Defining happiness, however, is a complex task. What makes people happy?The degree to which the same thing creates happiness differs from person to person. Happiness is subjective and compli

35、cated. This is a world of"multiple values"where each of us determines worth as opposed to "one fixed price" based merely on an economic perspective. Individuals shouldn't be defined by a single identity or role but by multidimensional nature as well as multiple roles making independent choices and t

36、aking actions for theirhappiness in different aspects. Businesses must be pioneers in pursuing not only economic growth but also the happiness of all citizens of society. Companies can contribute through the pursuit of social value as well as economic profit. At the heart of this lies"purpose". A

37、company's purpose defines the value it brings to society. The true worth of a company should be determined not just by the return s it creates for shareholders but by the value it creates for society as a whole. 28.

40、le values. 31. Who are the main intended readers of the text? A. Social psychologists. B. Enterprise administrators. C. School educators. D. Technological researchers. D A recent survey in the US found that Gen Z-ers and Millennials （千禧一代） visit libraries more often than their pa

41、rents or grandparents. The young love libraries because they are secure, comfortable, free and-as my 11-year-old would say-"aesthetic". This means they look good in the background of an Instagram post or TikTok video. It's also a great place to meet people. If you're both young and in a library, cha

42、nces are you have similar interests. And then, too, there are the books. Gen Z-ers are turning out to be big readers, especially of paper books. Even though, or perhaps because, they have in their pockets the most limitlessly distracting devices ever invented, many are deliberately choosing to pic

43、k up a piece of 15th-century technology instead. They like the fact that books are self-contained and require concentration. There is, sometimes, a sense of nostalgic（怀旧的） cosplay in the way young people read. In New York, for example, the latest TikTok-fuelled craze is reading with strangers in b

44、ars. You have to buy a ticket in advance, and then you all gather and sit in silence for 30 minutes, reading whatever book you've brought along. Like an expensive version of going to the library, except that afterwards you all have a drink and talk about books. The very thought of it makes me suff

45、er, but that's because I'm a child of the 1970s and 80s. To me, reading is a private pleasure, while screens-TV or cinema-are social. I did once, in a fit of ambitious parenting, introduce a "family reading hour", during which my husband and children were pressed to join me at the fireside for some

46、silent reading. It could not have felt more performative if we had dressed up in top hats and crinolines（旧时的衬裙）. But still, I applaud these young readers — for knowing what is good for them, for seeking out human connection, for finding the beauty and pleasure in old institutions, and for bringing n

51、 a university can be a pleasant but challenging experience: horrific and yet beautiful, scary but exciting. 36 Do not panic if, like me, you do not make friends on the first day or week. Before I met Sanaa, I had tried to force myself to make friends with classmates in my other majors. Then I

52、 was starting to get convinced that there was something wrong with me. 37 Eventually, when I started making more friends, it made sense why the friendships I had forced did not work out. It was my first lesson in understanding my uniqueness, and reminding me that my "friends"are somewhere, out

53、there. 38 So, dear Fresher, as I say welcome to university life, I am also saying, give yourself time-to understand your school, your course, and your new rhythm of life. Do not fall into the trap of people-pleasing to fit in. 39 Of course, you must leave room to grow and breathe- to d

55、rhaps that is DIYs, writing blog posts, participating in club activities in your department, or joining the dance troupe. So, dear Fresher, go forward, and leave your mark!
