Befre he left China in 1986, Che Zha Sheng’s teacher Said t him, “After yu g t the United States, share sme f ur Chinese culture with them if yu have a chance.” Tday, mre than three decades later, the student is fulfilling his teacher’s dream. Che has been appinted as the specialist gardener fr the penjing curt in the newly expanded Chinese Garden at the Huntingtn Gardens in San Marin.
The curt is cmpsed f winding paths, whitewashed walls and ccasinal pieces f Taihu rck imprted frm Lake Tai in China. Che is busy displaying the penjing fr the pening ceremny.
Brn in Guangzhu, China, Che started studying penjing when he was 26. He practiced with Lu Zhi Quan, the sn f nted master Lu Xue Ming, in Guangzhu, and later became a student f Master Lu himself.

“When we began building the Chinese Garden,” says Jim Flsm, directr f the garden, “we were lking fr smene wh knew penjing. S it was a bit f luck we knew Mr. Che. He’s the first specialist gardener we hired fr the Chinese Garden.”
That was mre than a decade ag. Tday, Che bth develps new penjing and tends t the nes in the Huntingtn’s cllectin. When the Chinese Garden pens Friday, abut 30 will be seen in the curt. Eventually, abut twice that number will be n display. At least half f them have been cultivated by Che.
Americans may be mre familiar with bnsai, the Japanese versin f penjing. Bnsai came t Japan frm China arund 1200. Over time, it develped its wn standards and techniques.

Neurbilgist Nina Kraus fund that musical training desn’t just imprve the ear frm music — it als helps the ear fr speech. The result was published in The Jurnal f Neurscience.
Researchers have already fund that kids wh take music lessns fr tw years dn’t just get better at playing music but als perfrm better at prcessing language. Hwever, here’s smething unusual abut the new study where it tk place. It wasn’t in her labratry, but in the ffices f Harmny Prject in Ls Angeles, a nnprfit after-schl prgram that teaches music t children in lw-incme cmmunities.
“Since 2008, 93 percent f the kids wh went thrugh the prgram have gne n t clleges like Dartmuth and NYU,” says Margaret Martin, funder f the prject, “despite drput rates f 50 percent r mre in the neighbrhds where they live and wherer we intentinally site ur prgrams.”
Martin knew that there were plenty f pssible explanatins fr that success. Sme f the kids and parents the prgram attracted were clearly mre mtivated. Perhaps mre imprtantly, Harmny Prject gave kids a place t g after the bell rang, and access t adults wh challenged and lved them. Still, Martin suspected there was smething else that was helping these kids, t.
When Kraus was cntacted fr a scientific explanatin, she jumped at the chance t study the kids and their brains. Wrking with Harmny Prject, Kraus randmly assigned several dzen kids frm the prgram’s waitlist int tw grups: thse wh wuld be studied after ne year f music lessns and thse wh wuld be studied after tw years. And what she fund was that in the tw-year kids, their brains gt better — mre precise — at prcessing speech.
Why the imprvement?
“That’s because the tw aren’t very different. They have three things in cmmn — pitch, timing and timbre — and the brain uses the same part t make sense f them all,” Kraus explains. T be clear, the study has its limits. But third-grader Mnica Miranda, wh is in her third year with Harmny Prject, desn’t need prf. “When I d my hmewrk and feel absent-minded, I usually start playing my vilin t relax my mind,” she says.
8. What is unusual abut Nina Kraus’s study?
A. It just cncentrates n pr yung adults.
B. It studies language and music side by side.
C. It is the first time t study hmeless children.
D. It is nt dne in a precisely cntrlled envirnment.
9. Which statement will Margaret Martin prbably agree with?
A. Mre varied prgrams shuld be prvided fr the kids.
B. It is t early t explain the students’ remarkable success.
C. Lve and security are imprtant fr the Harmny Prject kids.
D. Musical training has played a decisive rle in the children’s success.
10. What des the underlined wrd “they” in paragraph 7 refer t?
A. Music and speech.
B. Pitch and timing.
C The tw grups f kids.
D. Kraus and Martin.
11. Hw des Mnica Miranda say abut playing music?

Predicting heart attack, and perhaps even preventing the related death, may be pssible with the help f artificial intelligence (AI), accrding t a new paper t be presented at an imprtant meeting next week.
“Heart attack leads t 10% t 20%f verall deaths in the wrld. Predicting it is difficult. This research may mark a big step tward a nvel slutin t the glbal health prblem,” says Xavier Juven, the lead authr.
Xavier Juven and his team examined the medical recrds f 25, 000 individuals wh had experienced heart attack ver a perid f ten years, and then they emplyed their AI mdel, which had been trained n the cllected medical recrds,t cmpare data frm 70, 000 peple frm the general ppulatin, in rder t identify individuals at high risk f heart attack.
During the study,they drew 25, 000 persnalized health equatins (方程式) frm the 25, 000 individuals and established a persnalized risk prfile fr all f the 70, 000 general participants, in which the team identified the factrs that were mst likely t decrease r increase the risk f heart attack at a particular percentage and time frame. Fr example, the study predicted a certain factr may have an 89% risk f causing heart attack within three mnths.
Accrding t the paper, the AI mdel culd identify peple wh had mre than 90% risk f suffering heart attack, and they represented arund ne furth f all cases f dearth. It als discvered that the risk factrs were very different between individuals and were ften identified by specialists frm different medical fields — a picture that is difficult fr a dctr in just ne given field t catch.
“While dctrs have effective treatments fr the identified patients, the use f AI is necessary t detect in a persn’s medical infrmatin registered ver the years t predict the risk f heart attacks,” says Juven. “We hpe that the AI mdel will help dctrs t reduce thse risk factrs in advance.”
The study cmes with several dwnsides, thugh. Fr example, the electrnic health recrds smetimes are nt accurate, cmplete r even available. They may als cntain variatins in data cllectin practices amng different hspitals.
12. What did the researchers d in their study?
A. They surveyed the participants ver a perid f ten years.
B. They just studied peple wh suffered heart attack in the past.
C. They created a detailed risk prfile fr all f the general participants.
D. They trained the AI mdel n 95,000 individuals’ existing risk prfiles.
13. What can be inferred abut the AI mdel?
A. It may make better predictins than a specialist.
B. It is able t predict abut 90%f all cases f death.
C. It is mre reliable amng the lw risk grup.
D. It will ffer better treatments fr the patients.
14. What is the last paragraph mainly abut?
A. The significance f the study.
B. Limitatins f the new mdel.
C. Prblems with the cllected data.
D. The applicatin f the equatins.
15. What is the best title fr the text?
A. Upcming Key Meeting t Unveil AI Breakthrugh
B. Heart Attack Emerges as Majr Glbal Health Threat
C. AI’s Ptential in Heart Attack Predictin & Preventin
D. Electrnic Health Recrds Enhance Heart Attack Predictins

Befre he left China in 1986, Che Zha Sheng’s teacher Said t him, “After yu g t the United States, share sme f ur Chinese culture with them if yu have a chance.” Tday, mre than three decades later, the student is fulfilling his teacher’s dream. Che has been appinted as the specialist gardener fr the penjing curt in the newly expanded Chinese Garden at the Huntingtn Gardens in San Marin.
The curt is cmpsed f winding paths, whitewashed walls and ccasinal pieces f Taihu rck imprted frm Lake Tai in China. Che is busy displaying the penjing fr the pening ceremny.
Brn in Guangzhu, China, Che started studying penjing when he was 26. He practiced with Lu Zhi Quan, the sn f nted master Lu Xue Ming, in Guangzhu, and later became a student f Master Lu himself. In 1986, Che immigrated t the United States, eventually settling dwn in San Gabriel. At first, he started as a vlunteer at the Huntingtn Gardens, helping t tend t a small cllectin f black pine penjing.
“When we began building the Chinese Garden,” says Jim Flsm, directr f the garden, “we were lking fr smene wh knew penjing. S it was a bit f luck we knew Mr. Che. He’s the first specialist gardener we hired fr the Chinese Garden.”
That was mre than a decade ag. Tday, Che bth develps new penjing and tends t the nes in the Huntingtn’s cllectin. When the Chinese Garden pens Friday, abut 30 will be seen in the curt. Eventually, abut twice that number will be n display. At least half f them have been cultivated by Che.
Americans may be mre familiar with bnsai, the Japanese versin f penjing. Bnsai came t Japan frm China arund 1200. Over time, it develped its wn standards and techniques.

Neurbilgist Nina Kraus fund that musical training desn’t just imprve the ear frm music — it als helps the ear fr speech. The result was published in The Jurnal f Neurscience.
Researchers have already fund that kids wh take music lessns fr tw years dn’t just get better at playing music but als perfrm better at prcessing language. Hwever, here’s smething unusual abut the new study where it tk place. It wasn’t in her labratry, but in the ffices f Harmny Prject in Ls Angeles, a nnprfit after-schl prgram that teaches music t children in lw-incme cmmunities.
“Since 2008, 93 percent f the kids wh went thrugh the prgram have gne n t clleges like Dartmuth and NYU,” says Margaret Martin, funder f the prject, “despite drput rates f 50 percent r mre in the neighbrhds where they live and wherer we intentinally site ur prgrams.”
Martin knew that there were plenty f pssible explanatins fr that success. Sme f the kids and parents the prgram attracted were clearly mre mtivated. Perhaps mre imprtantly, Harmny Prject gave kids a place t g after the bell rang, and access t adults wh challenged and lved them. Still, Martin suspected there was smething else that was helping these kids, t.
When Kraus was cntacted fr a scientific explanatin, she jumped at the chance t study the kids and their brains. Wrking with Harmny Prject, Kraus randmly assigned several dzen kids frm the prgram’s waitlist int tw grups: thse wh wuld be studied after ne year f music lessns and thse wh wuld be studied after tw years. And what she fund was that in the tw-year kids, their brains gt better — mre precise — at prcessing speech.
Why the imprvement?
“That’s because the tw aren’t very different. They have three things in cmmn — pitch, timing and timbre — and the brain uses the same part t make sense f them all,” Kraus explains. T be clear, the study has its limits. But third-grader Mnica Miranda, wh is in her third year with Harmny Prject, desn’t need prf. “When I d my hmewrk and feel absent-minded, I usually start playing my vilin t relax my mind,” she says.
8. What is unusual abut Nina Kraus’s study?
A. It just cncentrates n pr yung adults.
B. It studies language and music side by side.
C. It is the first time t study hmeless children.
D. It is nt dne in a precisely cntrlled envirnment.
9. Which statement will Margaret Martin prbably agree with?
A. Mre varied prgrams shuld be prvided fr the kids.
B. It is t early t explain the students’ remarkable success.
C. Lve and security are imprtant fr the Harmny Prject kids.
D. Musical training has played a decisive rle in the children’s success.
10. What des the underlined wrd “they” in paragraph 7 refer t?
A. Music and speech.
B. Pitch and timing.
C The tw grups f kids.
D. Kraus and Martin.
11. Hw des Mnica Miranda say abut playing music?

Predicting heart attack, and perhaps even preventing the related death, may be pssible with the help f artificial intelligence (AI), accrding t a new paper t be presented at an imprtant meeting next week.
“Heart attack leads t 10% t 20%f verall deaths in the wrld. Predicting it is difficult. This research may mark a big step tward a nvel slutin t the glbal health prblem,” says Xavier Juven, the lead authr.
Xavier Juven and his team examined the medical recrds f 25, 000 individuals wh had experienced heart attack ver a perid f ten years, and then they emplyed their AI mdel, which had been trained n the cllected medical recrds,t cmpare data frm 70, 000 peple frm the general ppulatin, in rder t identify individuals at high risk f heart attack.
During the study,they drew 25, 000 persnalized health equatins (方程式) frm the 25, 000 individuals and established a persnalized risk prfile fr all f the 70, 000 general participants, in which the team identified the factrs that were mst likely t decrease r increase the risk f heart attack at a particular percentage and time frame. Fr example, the study predicted a certain factr may have an 89% risk f causing heart attack within three mnths.
Accrding t the paper, the AI mdel culd identify peple wh had mre than 90% risk f suffering heart attack, and they represented arund ne furth f all cases f dearth. It als discvered that the risk factrs were very different between individuals and were ften identified by specialists frm different medical fields — a picture that is difficult fr a dctr in just ne given field t catch.
“While dctrs have effective treatments fr the identified patients, the use f AI is necessary t detect in a persn’s medical infrmatin registered ver the years t predict the risk f heart attacks,” says Juven. “We hpe that the AI mdel will help dctrs t reduce thse risk factrs in advance.”
The study cmes with several dwnsides, thugh. Fr example, the electrnic health recrds smetimes are nt accurate, cmplete r even available. They may als cntain variatins in data cllectin practices amng different hspitals.
12. What did the researchers d in their study?
A. They surveyed the participants ver a perid f ten years.
B. They just studied peple wh suffered heart attack in the past.
C. They created a detailed risk prfile fr all f the general participants.
D. They trained the AI mdel n 95,000 individuals’ existing risk prfiles.
13. What can be inferred abut the AI mdel?
A. It may make better predictins than a specialist.
B. It is able t predict abut 90%f all cases f death.
C. It is mre reliable amng the lw risk grup.
D. It will ffer better treatments fr the patients.
14. What is the last paragraph mainly abut?
A. The significance f the study.
B. Limitatins f the new mdel.
C. Prblems with the cllected data.
D. The applicatin f the equatins.
15. What is the best title fr the text?
A. Upcming Key Meeting t Unveil AI Breakthrugh
B. Heart Attack Emerges as Majr Glbal Health Threat
C. AI’s Ptential in Heart Attack Predictin & Preventin
D. Electrnic Health Recrds Enhance Heart Attack Predictins
