The entire prcess f face-swapping and vide creatin tk a lt f effrt and lasted nearly half a mnth, during which Sun culdn’t help but shed tears as he missed his deceased father.
In 2022, Sun’s father was diagnsed with a rare cnditin knwn as appendiceal mucinus adencarcinma（阑尾黏液腺癌）. Despite Sun’s effrts t seek medical treatment fr his father, the disease prgressed rapidly, and his father passed away in 2023.
Cncerned abut his grandmther’s fragile health, the family decided t keep Sun’s father’s passing a secret. They fabricated （编造） a stry, telling the elderly wman that her sn was still receiving treatment in a Beijing hspital. The prlnged separatin depressed the grandmther a lt, wh cntinuusly expressed her lnging t speak with her sn.
In a creative attempt t cmfrt his grandmther, Sun, inspired by science fictin films, decided t use AI face-swapping technlgy t create a vide message frm his father. Prir t recrding the vide, he even shaved ff his bear d t lk mre like his late father.

Learning t play the pian causes cmplex changes in brain activity that shift ver time. Initially, certain areas f the brain becme highly active, but this reduces as learners becme mre skillful. Previus studies have lked int the rerganizatin. f smene’s brain activity while they are playing an instrument, but the research time has generally been shrt and the cnclusin is based nly n ne scan.
T learn mre abut this prcess, Alicja Olszewska at the Nencki Institute f Experimental Bilgy in Pland and her clleagues studied 24 peple as they learned t play the pian fr 26 weeks. This invlved a teacher shwing them basic techniques, as well as caching them thrugh eight increasingly cmplex pieces f music, during 13 45-minute classes. The participants were als encuraged t practise at hme fr 4 hurs a week.
After 1, 6, 13 and 26 weeks f training, the researchers used functinal magnetic resnance imaging（磁共振成像） t scan the participants’ brains as they attempted t play the increasingly cmplex pieces.
The scans shwed that playing the pian activates varius areas acrss the brain, including the auditry crtices invlved in prcessing sunds and the mtr crtices invlved in planning and executing（执行） mvements.
Over the 26 weeks, activity changed little in the auditry crtices, but generally decrease d in the mtr crtices. A reductin in brain activity represents its ptimizatin（最优化）, which wuld be expected as the participants’ pian-playing skills prgressed, says Olszewska.
The scans als revealed learning t play the pian initially activates ther areas f the brain, including the cerebellum, which balances mvement, and parts f the parietal crtex, which cmbine different types f sensry infrmatin. The researchers als fund increased activatin in the hippcampus, invlved in memry, and the basal ganglia, a set f deep brain structures invlved in cntrlling vluntary mvements.
Activity in these areas similarly decreased as the participants’ training prgressed. This suggests their underlying neural prcesses became increasingly ptimized alngside imprvements in their musical prficiency, says Olszewska.
28．Accrding t paragraph 1, what is a limitatin f previus studies?
A．Insufficient research duratin and data.B．Lack f participants with varied skill levels.
C．Inability t measure brain activity accurately.D．Failure t use advanced scanning techniques.
29．What is the result f the study regarding brain activity changes ver the 26 weeks?
A．Brain activity in the cerebellum increased largely.
B．Brain activity in the auditry crtices remained almst stable.
C．Brain activity increased as the pian-playing skills prgressed.
D．Brain activity in the mtr crtices increased significantly.
30．Which area f the brain is respnsible fr recalling the details f yur first schl day?
A．The cerebellum.B．The parietal crtex.
C．The hippcampus.D．The basal ganglia
31．What is the main idea f the passage?
A．The study f the rerganizatin f ur brain activity.
B．The benefits f playing the pian n ur brain.
C．The effects f pian learning n ur brain.
D．The imprtance f practice fr imprving pian skills.

Where is the line between art and advertising? A large painting in Cnway, New Hampshire, has led t a zning（分区） cnflict, a First Amendment legal actin and a lcal vte.
It started with a high schl art prject t paint a picture n a building in the twn. The building huses a stre called Leavitt’s Cuntry Bakery. The picture shws the sun shining ver muntains f cakes fund in bakeries.
This leads t the twn zning bard getting invlved. It decided that the painting was mre advertising than art. Officials said that, as an advertisement, the sign was t big. Its size brke twn rules. The bard rdered the sign be remved r changed. Bakery wner Sean Yung faced pssible fines if he did nt fllw the rder. S, he decided t fight it in curt. Yung’s legal actin charges the twn f Cnway f vilating his right t free speech, guaranteed in the U. S. Cnstitutin （宪法）.
“They said it wuld be art elsewhere,” Yung tld The Assciated Press. “It’s just nt art here.”
Many, including the zning bard members, liked the students’ wrk. But they said rules must be fllwed. At abut 8.6 square meters, the mural（壁画） is fur times bigger than zning rules permit fr advertising signs.
Then, last week, residents vted against changes t the rules. The lawsuit （诉讼） argues that the twn’s definitin f “sign” is very general and its zning rules d nt include the wrd “mural”.
Bard member Luigi Bartlme said he thinks the painting at the bakery is art, nt advertising. “I think it’s a very badly written piece f cde here,” said Bartlme. But Bard Chairpersn Jhn Clbath said the bard has t wrk with the rule, which was apprved by vters. He argues that the mural wuld likely be seen-as art, and nt advertising, if its subject did nt represent the prducts fund at Leavitt’s.
32．Why did the zning bard view the picture as an advertisement?
A．It was bigger than the permitted size in the twn rules.
B．The shining sun made it mre eye-catching in the twn.
C．Cakes sld in the stre were painted n the large sign.
D．The Bakery wner desired it wuld help him earn mney.
33．What led Yung t take legal actin?
A．He was seeking financial freedm.B．He wanted t bring attentin t a larger issue.
C．He was persnally threatened by the twn’s actins.D．He believed his rights had been unfairly denied.
34．What can yu infer frm Jhn Clbath’s wrds?
A．The mural is an advertisement rather than art.
B．The mural shuld be displayed regardless f the rule.
C．The subject didn’t shw the prducts at Leavitt’s.
D．The piece f cde here is badly written.
35．What is the suitable title fr the text?
A．Will the Curt Regard the Picture as Art?
B．Is the Picture Mural Art r Advertising?
C．Shuld the Right t Freedm Vilate Rules?
D．Hw t Slve the Cnflict between Art and Ads?
