In 1990, Raines’ 2-year-ld sn died frm accidental pisning. This event caused her a lt f pain, and the pain lasted fr many years. Raines didn’t knw what t d abut it. And she culdn’t figure ut what she was living fr. Until ne day abut several years ag, Raines visited the skid rw with a friend wh wrked as a vlunteer. She met a lt f hmeless peple there and realized that they badly needed help, nt just in finding a hme, but in finding themselves, including their wn wrth and beauty.
Then, Raines frgt the pain that fate had given her. She devted herself t helping the hmeless. Raines started t d vluntary wrk every Saturday. As she gt t knw the hmeless, they ften praised her fr her make-up, hair, and style. She then started t make the hmeless up. They lved it, and she lved it. Thus, Raines fund the purpse f her life.

Linfish certainly aren’t the fastest predatrs (捕食性动物) at sea, but new research suggests that they can catch swift prey in an unhurried way, mving slwly in pursuit until the perfect mment t strike. “The finding may help explain part f the linfish’s impact as an invasive (侵入的) species, and reveals a hunting apprach that ther relatively slw predatrs use,” researchers said.
Brn with brightly clred stripes, linfish ften use cral reefs (珊瑚) as a prtectin and remain undetected lng enugh t fllw and attack small fish. But the predatrs als feed in pen water where they’re mre visible. Curius abut hw these slw swimmers hunt in plain view, Ashley Petersn, a prfessr at the University f Califrnia, and her clleagues placed sme red linfish in a tank and recrded them as they chased dwn the green chrmis, a kind f small reef fish. In 14 f the 23 trials, the linfish successfully swallwed their prey. They als captured the chrmis in 74 percent f the trials where the linfish made attempts t strike.
On average, chrmis swam abut twice as fast as linfish. But chrmis still fell victim t the way linfish hunted — linfish swim twards chrmis, aiming fr the prey’s current psitin. “If they’re interested in smething, they never give up,” Petersn said. In cntrast, the prey fish des bursts f fast swimming alng with shrt pauses. “Over time, linfish will take advantage f all thse pauses t get clser and clser until they capture the prey,” Petersn said. “It wuld be interesting t see hw linfish’s chase plays ut.”
If linfish d use the strategy in the wild and the prey reacts similarly, it’s pssible that the hunting methd culd cntribute t the destructive ptential f their invasin in the Caribbean, the western Atlantic and the Mediterranean, where the fish are eating native cean animals and disrupting fd webs. But ther factrs, such as linfish’s huge appetite and fruitful reprductin, culd be mre influential n the invasiveness.
28. What des the new research fcus n?
29. What des the authr want t explain by the trials in Paragraph 2?
A. Small fish are much safer in pen water.
B. Linfish always pretend nt t see their prey.
C. Linfish have a high rate f successful strikes.
D. Fast prey tends nt t be lng-distance swimmers.
30. What can be inferred abut linfish during their hunting prcess?
A. They quietly pick up their speed.
B. They prefer mre challenging prey.
C. They like t play tricky games with their prey.
D. They shw great perseverance in capturing their prey.
31. What des the last paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Slw predatrs may have the same characteristics.
B. Linfish’ hunting style makes them dminate the ceans.
C. It’s time t deal with the limitatins f the wild envirnment.
D. Linfish are harmful t cean creatures as an invasive species.
D
The cnfidence peple place in science is frequently based nt n what it really is, but n what peple wuld like it t be. When I asked my students hw they wuld define science, many f them replied that it’s an bjective way f discvering certainties abut the wrld. But science cannt prvide certainties.
Actually, dubt and science ften g hand in hand. Science, when prperly functining, questins accepted understandings and brings bth new knwledge and new questins — nt certainty. Dubt des nt create trust, nr des it help public understanding. S why shuld peple trust a prcess that seems t require a trublesme state f uncertainty withut always prviding slid slutins?
As a histrian f science, I wuld argue that it’s the respnsibility f scientists and histrians f science t shw that the real pwer f science lies precisely in what is ften regarded as its weakness: its drive t questin and challenge accepted understandings. Indeed, the scientific apprach requires changing ur understanding f the natural wrld whenever new evidence arises frm either experimentatin r bservatin. Scientific findings are temprary understandings that invlve the state f knwledge at a given mment. In the lng run, many f them are challenged and even verturned. Dubt might be trubling, but it pushes us twards a better understanding. Certainties, reassuring as they may seem, prevent the scientific prcess.
Scientists understand this, but in the dynamic between the public and science, there are tw ppsite miscnceptins (误解). The first is a frm f blind scientism — a belief that science is unquestinable and has the capacity t slve all prblems. Such an idealized representatin actually ignres the universal existence f cntrversy, cnflict and errr at the very heart f the scientific wrld.
32. What’s the real pwer f science accrding t the authr?
33. What des the underlined wrd “reassuring” prbably mean?
34. What may be the belief f the secnd miscnceptin?
35. What can be the best title fr the text?
