In the past, the imported makeups （化妆品） shelves in Japan's department stores were usually dominated （主导） by South Korean makeups. As "Chiborg boom"-Chinese-style makeup becomes popular on social media, Chinese makeups start to make inroads in Japan.

The term "Chiborg" is a Japanese-made word, which is a combination of "China" and "cyborg", referring to a Chinese beauty so perfect and inhuman that looks like a cyborg. In the eyes of Japanese young women, "Chiborg" usually uses bright colors reminding China's classical Peking Opera, with a focus on eyes and lips to create a sharp and chiseled （轮廓分明 的） look. While Japanese-style makeup always centers around cute and innocent features, Chinese-style makeup gives an appearance that is more elegant, cool and mature.

"Chiborg" began to attract the attention of Japanese young women around 2019, when abundant information on Chinese-style makeup has been circulating on Twitter and Instagram. It spread even more after tutorial videos of Chinese-style makeup were being posted on You-Tube.

Emilin, a Japanese girl who shares information on fashion on YouTube, posted a video on "Chiborg" and harvested more than 2 million views in January this year.

Another blogger called "Shikanoma" explained the unique charm （魅力） of "Chiborg. " "Chinese-style makeup expresses the inner strength and confidence of a person and it feels new. I think the concept of a 'cool woman' is becoming widespread in Japan nowadays. I also desire to be a strong-willed woman, " she said.

According to Yueko Nishihara, research planner at Japanese makeup and cosmetics portal site @cosme, nowadays Japanese women tend to emphasize the emotional value of makeups, such as "I am happy to have it" or "It is fun to use".

Furthermore, Chinese makeups are gradually shaking off the stereotype of cheap, low-quality products, said Saya Hayashi, CEO of Japan Functional Cosmetic Laboratory Co. Ltd. "A few years ago, it was thought that Chinese makeups were mainly aimed at middle and low-income groups, but in the last year or two, there has been an increase in high-price, high-quality makeups, attracting office ladies and high-income customers, " she said.

At Serious Readers we understand that the creative mind requires many factors to function properly.

Creativity and inspiration can often strike when we least exper it, and disappear rapidly when we feel we most need it. Inspiration demands attention, at any hour of the day; that's why Serious Lights use a special technology that allows us to closely replicate（模拟）natural daylight and bring it indoors. This means that wherever you are, and whatever time it is, you can write like you are bathed in a pool of natural sunshine.

"Read a thousand books, and your words will flow like a river. "-Lisa See

Every author will tell you that the key to becoming a skilled writer is to devote yourself to reading. Reading develops your vocabulary, teaches you narrative structure, and provides a window to worldviews beyond your own. Time spent in front of a page is important for any hopeful wordsmith, and the longer you read, the better prepared you are to write. But many people struggle with reading for long periods of time. They experience blurred vision, headaches, d hard concentrating and sore or dry eyes. These are symptoms of what is commonly known as eyestrain （视疲劳） . A Serious Light works with your eyes to reduce these symptoms and allow you the freedom to read and write for as long as you desire.

"A writer is a world trapped in a person. ”—Victor Hugo

Books often provide us with a sense of freedom. The common phrase "get lost in a book” indicates the sensation of allowing the world around you to fade away while the words on the page become a world inside your head. That feeling of freedom shouldn't be hampered by tired and sore eyes. Most readers spend the majority of their time under some form of artificial light. This is where the problem starts. Most artificial light sources are not designed with your eyes in mind and will cause your eyes to overstrain and become tired and annoyed much faster. With a Serious Light you will experience sharper text, vivid colour, and breathtaking clarity, allowing you to read and write for as long as you desire.

8. What is the second paragraph mainly talk about?

A. The advantage of creativity.

B. The advantage of inspiration.

C. The function of Serious Lights.

D. The function of natural sunshine.

9. What does Lisa See's words indicate?

A. The importance of reading.

C. The future of their products.

B. The method to write a book.

D. The ways to be a wordsmith.

10. What does the underlined word "hampered" most probably mean?

A. explained

C. satisfied

B. directed

D. influenced

11. What will the text most probably talk about next?

A. Recommend Serious Lights products.

B. Offer directions of reading.

C. Introduce some books on Serious Lights.

D. Refer to benefits from reading.

Reading people's minds seems to be a superpower that only exists in movies. But scientists have now made it possible to translate people's brain waves!

Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco developed a new device. It can turn brain waves into words on a screen in front of the user. In the study, they tested it with a paralyzed （瘫痪的） man. "To our knowledge, this is the first successful demonstration （演示） of direct decoding （解码） of full words from the brain of someone who is paralyzed and cannot speak, " said Edward Chang, the senior author of the study. Each year, thousands of people lose the ability to speak due to accidents or diseases. With up to 93 percent accuracy, the new device shows "strong promise" to let these people fully communicate in the future.

One problem with such mind-reading machines, however, is that they have to put electrodes （电极） into people's brains. It's inconvenient and has health risks. But scientists from the University of Texas, US, have taken steps to change this. They tried to translate people's thoughts without even touching their heads, reported Live Science.

The new brain scanning technique is called FMRI, or functional magnetic resonance imaging. It's a safer way of "reading" brain activity. Active brain cells have more oxygen. By tracking this, scientists can translate brain activity.

The team asked participants to listen to 16 hours of radio shows while scanning their brains. Then they used a computer algorithm （算法） to create a story based on the FMRI recording. It matched the radio shows pretty well.

In other tests, the algorithm could basically explain the story of a silent movie that the participants watched. It could even retell a story that the participants imagined in their heads. Although it's not a word-for-word translation, the technique provides many possibilities. d

12. Why did the researchers at the University of California think their test is a success?

A. They could cure the patient.

B. They could make the patient speak again.

C. They could create a story.

D. They could read the patient's mind.

13. What is the disadvantage for the mind-reading machine?

A. Inconvenience.

B. Mind-reading.

C. Algorithm.

D. Accuracy.

14. What did the scientists do with the FMRI?

A. Let the patients listen to a radio.

B. Made the patient recall a movie.

C. Used an algorithm to explain the minds.

D. Told the patient's experience.

15. Which can be a suitable little for the text?

A. A Film About Reading Minds

B. Reading Minds in Medical Science

C. Developing A New Minds-Reading Way

D. Saving One's Life by Using a New Machine
