Mary Shelley bends ver her latest creatin. Althugh the carving is nly half cmplete, the image f a waitress hlding a plate f eggs cmes ut frm the bard. Of Shelley’s nearly seven hundred carvings, many shw scenes with cws n farms and peple in restaurants.
Frm memries t carvings
“My wrk is a visual diary, “Shelley says.” The carvings describe things I have experienced and felt at different times in my life.”
Every ne f her carvings tells a stry. Many f the stries in Shelley’s wdcarvings cme frm memries f her childhd in a rural （乡村的） area utside f Dylestwn, Pennsylvania. Shelley’s family managed a small farm. Mary was a serius girl wh spent a lt f time raising animals, explring utdrs, and reading.

Early in her career, peple hired Shelley t carve special pieces that tk fur r five weeks t cmplete. The mney she received mtivated her t try mre cmplicated scenes created by carving deeper in the wd. Over time, Shelley’s art began t have its wn style. In a typical Shelley wdcarving, sme bjects seem t reach ut f the frame while thers drp back, creating a feeling f depth.

There are a few benefits t users frm the clud besides giving yu peace f mind if yu lse yur phne. Yu can access yur data anytime, anywhere if yu’re cnnected t the Internet. And yu dn’t have t wrry abut using up all f the strage n yur hard drive, meaning yu might nt have t pay as much fr a device (that cmes with a tn f strage.
Yu’ve prbably heard f the tw biggest names in the market, Amazn Web Services, knwn as AWS, and Micrsft Azure, IBM, Ggle and Alibaba are als big players when it cmes t prviding clud services.
Many clud services are based n a subscriptin (pricing mdel. That means users pay, fr example, a mnthly fee fr clud services and they can scale up r dwn as needed. And clud prviders are cashing in. AWS takes up abut 12 percent f Amazn’s quarterly sales, but it makes mre than half f the cmpany’s perating incme.
Befre we get t excited abut the clud, let’s take a step back and lk at sme f the risks. One bvius cncern, if all f ur data is nline, what happens when the Internet ges dwn? That’s what happened in 2013 when an AWS pwer cut tk dwn Instagram, Vine and Airbub.
Hacker attacks are anther big risk with research shwing arund ne-fifth f all files in the clud cntain sensitive data.
Finally, it can be difficult fr cnsumers and businesses t switch between different clud cmpanies. I might have a hard time syncing (my iClud and Ggle Drive accunts. That can give sme big cmpanies that are already making big mney n the clud a lt f pwer ver ur data.

D．Custmers must pay a regular fixed fee fr clud services.
4．The main idea f the passage is abut ______
A．what the clud isB．hw the clud wrks

If maths is the language f the universe, bees may have just uttered their first wrds. New research suggests these busybdies f the insect wrld are capable f additin and subtractin （减法）-using clrs in place f plus and minus symbls.
In the animal kingdm, the ability t cunt-r at least distinguish between different quantities-isn’t unusual: It has been seen in frgs, spiders, and even fish. But slving equatins （方程式） using symbls is rare, s far nly achieved by famusly brainy animals such as chimpanzees and African grey parrts.
Building n previus research that says the scial insects can cunt t fur and understand the cncept f zer, researchers wanted t test the limits f what their tiny brains culd d.
Scientists trained 14 bees t link blue and yellw t additin and subtractin respectively. They placed the bees at the entrance f a Y-shaped maze （迷宫）, where they were shwn several shapes in either yellw r blue. If the shapes were blue, bees gt a reward if they went t the end f the maze with ne mre blue shape (the ther end had ne less blue shape); if the shapes were yellw, they gt a reward if they went t the end f the maze with ne less yellw shape.
The testing wrked the same way: Bees that “subtracted” ne shape when they saw yellw, r “added” ne shape when they saw blue were cnsidered t have aced the test. The bees gt the right answer 63% t 72% f the time, depending n the type f the equatin and the directin f the right answer-much better than randm guesses wuld allw-the researchers reprt tday in Science Advances.
Thugh the results came frm just 14 bees, researchers said the advance was exciting. If a brain abut 20, 000 times smaller than urs can perfrm maths using symbls, it culd pave the way t nvel appraches in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. Just dn’t ask the bees t d yur hmewrk anytime sn.
（1）Why d the scientists cnduct the research n bees?
A．T teach them maths.B．T test the pwer f tiny brains.
C．T explain the meaning f clrs.D．T get access t machine learning.
（2）What des the underlined wrd “aced” in Paragraph 5 prbably mean?
A．Given up.B．Entered fr.C．Gt thrugh.D．Checked ut.
（3）What might the research make cntributins t?
A．Language acquisitin.B．Arithmetic learning.
C．The prtectin f animals.D．The develpment f AI.
（4）What can be the best title fr the text?
A．Bees “Like” CuntingB．Bees “Tell” Clrs Apart
C．Bees “Perfrm” Maths Using ShapesD．Bees “Get” Additin and Subtractin
