Influenced by her family, Xu started t learn the craft f making Chinese knts at hme, but didn’t expect the pastime t change her life at first. Xu became a city-level inheritr f this prvincial-level intangible cultural heritage in 2009, and has been devted t develping the craft since then.
As a fan f phtgraphy, she ften tk phts f dragnflies, butterflies and flwers arund a lake nt far frm her hme, then she made knts resembling them, and psted the phts n a website. That attracted the attentin f sme peple.
As an advertising design majr, she makes innvated knts based n her knwledge f design, and can use varius threads t make small, exquisite designs. She has created many series f wrks based n traditinal Chinese culture, such as festivals, tea and Peking Opera characters.
“Shwing Chinese culture thrugh traditinal Chinese crafts—that is the riginal aspiratin fr me as an inheritr f the intangible cultural heritage,” says Xu. She has made mre than 3,000 designs, and even pened tw ffline branch stres. Her prducts include decratins f different sizes that can be put n walls, car rnaments, cellphne chains and jewelry. “I believe ur intangible cultural heritage can be better develped and passed dwn when it meets peple’s needs in daily life,” says Xu.
Chen, an nline fllwer, has been teaching hw t make knts in the United Arab Emirates. “Influenced by Xu’s wrk, I learn the craft t cultivate my temperament, and I als teach children t better understand Chinese culture,” says Chen. “Chinese culture is ppular in the UAE, and I ften make sme knts with Chinese elements fr lcal peple as gifts.”
Xu has als been generus in helping thers. She taught this art t wrkers wh lst their jbs in her hmetwn, allwing them t master a skill frm which they culd earn an incme. Students and peple with disabilities were als beneficiaries. Indeed, mre than 20 peple with disabilities nw actually wrk fr her.
Despite the success f her career, Xu says wrking n the craft has benefited her mre in a spiritual way. “Tying knts requires cncentratin, and yu must nt be distracted during the prcess. It has trained me t deal with matters in a calm, peaceful and ratinal way,” says Xu. “I believe the life f ne persn is shrt, and yu have the right t decide hw t spend it.”

Of the mre than 3,000 species f msquites in the wrld, just a small number specialize in sucking human bld. Hw msquites track us dwn s effectively isn’t currently knwn, but it matters, since they carry dangerus diseases which may cause death.
“In fact, stpping these annying insects in their tracks culd save up t half a millin lives lst t thse diseases each year,” said Carlyn Gauff, a prfessr f eclgy and evlutinary bilgy at the Princetn Neurscience Institute. That’s why Gauff’s team wants t understand hw they find and target humans.
Msquites mstly chse what t bite based n dr (气味). Knwing hw a ptentially disease-carrying msquit finds a persn, while ignring ther warm-blded animals, is a key questin. But it’s nt easy t answer, since any animal smell is made up f hundreds f chemicals mixed tgether in specific percentage. “The actual chemicals that are fund in human dr are basically the same as the chemicals fund in animal dr—it’s the percentages and the relative large amunt f thse substances in human mixtures that’s unique,” said Gauff.
T investigate, researchers decided t recrd neural activity in the brain f msquites while expsing them t natural human and animal dr samples. They cllected dr samples frm abut 40 different animals. When they cmpared sme f thse with the 16 human samples, smething jumped ut. Decanal is particularly rich in human skin. Cmmn in the natural wrld, in humans, decanal cmes frm anther, mre cmplex substance. When ne cmpnent f ur skin’s natural ils, sapienic acid, breaks dwn, decanal is left ver. This acid is nly fund in human beings. It’s what likely leads t the high levels f decanal that help the msquites smell their way t us.
Understanding what the msquites are targeting is nly part f the stry; knwing hw they d it is als imprtant. T see exactly hw msquites use this sense, scientists used genetically mdified (转基因的) msquites s that they culd cut pen msquites’ heads and watch neurns firing when they’re expsed t human and animal drs. The research team already knew that msquites have abut 60 different types f neurns that sense drs, s when they lked in the insects’ brains, they thught they might see a lt f activity. But it was surprisingly quiet, meaning that the signal was perhaps quite simple, dwn t just a cuple types f neurns. “One type f neurn respnded really strngly t bth humans and animals. Anther type f neurn respnded t bth—but it respnded much mre strngly t humans than animals,” Gauff said.
Hw t keep msquites’ decanal signal frm being transmitted will be the research team’s next fcus. Gauff hped their current wrk culd be used t make msquit killers and attractants t prevent disease.
28. What’s the final purpse f the research cnducted by Gauff’s team?
A T study why nly certain msquites suck human bld.
B. T investigate the neural activity in msquites’ brains.
C. T help prevent deadly diseases caused by msquites.
D. T test the effectiveness f msquit killers.
29. T which substance(s) wuld msquites mstly be attracted?
A. Natural il frm human skin.
B. Chemicals in the envirnment.
C. Decanal generated in human bld.
D. Remains f decmpsed sapienic acid.
30. What can we learn frm the passage?
A. Mst msquit neurns are nt invlved in respnding t human dr.
B. Genetically mdified msquites are nt sensitive t human dr.
C. Further research will fcus n dr signal and neural cnnectin.
D. Chemicals fund in human and animal drs are quite different.

A few years ag, the City Cuncil f Mnza, Italy, barred pet wners frm keeping gldfish in curved fishbwls. The spnsrs f the measure explained that it is cruel t keep a fish in such a bwl because the curved sides give the fish a distrted view f reality. Aside frm the measure’s significance t the pr gldfish, the stry raises an interesting philsphical questin: Hw d we knw that the reality we perceive is true?
Physicists are finding themselves in a similar truble t the gldfish’s. Fr decades they have been pursuing an ultimate thery f everything—ne cmplete and cnsistent set f fundamental laws f nature that explain every aspect f reality. It nw appears that this pursuit may generate nt a single thery but a family f intercnnected theries, each describing its wn versin f reality, as if it viewed the universe thrugh its wn fishbwl. This cncept may be difficult fr many peple t accept. Mst peple believe that there is an bjective reality ut there and that ur senses and ur science directly cnvey (传达) infrmatin abut the material wrld. In philsphy, that belief is called realism.
In physics, realism is becming difficult t defend. Instead, the idea f alternative realities is a mainstay f tday’s ppular culture. Fr example, in the science-fictin film The Matrix the human race is unknwingly living in a simulated (模拟的) virtual reality created by intelligent cmputers. Hw d we knw we are nt just cmputer-generated characters living in a Matrix-like wrld? If—like us—the beings in the simulated wrld culd nt bserve their universe frm the utside, they wuld have n reasn t dubt their wn pictures f reality.
Similarly, the gldfish’s view is nt the same as urs frm utside their curved bwl. Fr instance, because light bends as it travels frm air t water, a freely mving bject that we wuld bserve t mve in a straight line wuld be bserved by the gldfish t mve alng a curved path. The gldfish culd frm scientific laws frm their frame (框架) f reference that wuld always hld true and that wuld enable them t make predictins abut the future mtin f bjects utside the bwl. If the gldfish frmed such a thery, we wuld have t admit the gldfish’s view as a reasnable picture f reality.
The gldfish example shws that the same physical situatin can be mdeled in different ways, each emplying different fundamental elements and cncepts. It might be that t describe the universe we have t emply different theries in different situatins. It is nt the physicist’s traditinal expectatin fr a thery f nature, nr des it crrespnd t ur everyday idea f reality. But it might be the way f the universe.
31. What des the underlined wrd “distrted” in Paragraph mst prbably mean?
A. Original.B. Accurate.C. Distant.D. False.
32. What des Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A. The need fr a cmplete thery.B. The lasting cnflict in physics.
C. The existence f the material wrld.D. The cnventinal insight f reality.
33. What can we learn frm the passage?
A. Nature’s mysteries are best left undiscvered.
B. An external wrld is independent f the bservers.
C. Peple’s theries are influenced by their viewpints.
D. It is essential t figure ut which picture f reality is better.
34. Accrding t the passage, the authr may agree that ________.
A. varius interpretatins f the universe are welcmed
B. physicists have a favrite candidate fr the final thery
C. multiple realities can be pieced tgether t shw the real wrld

An aplgy can achieve great things fr bth the givers and the receivers althugh nbdy likes t admit that they were wrng.
An aplgy is crucial t ur physical health. When we acknwledge that we are wrngders and express ur guilt t thers, we will free urselves frm the uncmfrtable state. This act feels like a weight n us has been lifted. ____35____ Research shwed that heart rate, sweat levels and facial tensin decreased in victims f wrngs even when they simply imagined receiving an aplgy.
Aplgizing affects us nt just physically, but als mentally. ____36____ When presented with an aplgy, the victims may view us as imperfect human beings and find it easier t give frgiveness. In a pwerful piece in Psychlgy Tday, writer Beverly Engel described hw a simple “I’m srry” frm her mther, after being estranged frm each ther fr three years, made her relieved emtinally. But let’s be real, aplgizing can be difficult.
____37____ We shuld recgnize ur actin did hurt smene even if ur intentin may nt have been s. Instead f making excuses fr what we did, try t bear respnsibility and ffer a prmise t take actin s that we will nt repeat the behavir in future. ____38____
Of curse, the mst effective aplgies ften bring a cst t ur dignity, since we have t admit that we are wrng in frnt f thers r many peple. ____39____ As is knwn, it is ne f the mst psitive actins we can take when we d smething wrng—fr urselves, the thers, and the relatinship.

阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。
The ther day I was having cffee and catching up with Brian, a friend I hadn’t seen in ver a year, when he asked me this questin: “D yu regret leaving Ggle?” “Of curse, I dn’t regret it,” I answered. But when I reflected mre deeply n his questin, I arrived at this realizatin: We cannt regret smething that has taught us valuable lessns in life.
Truth is, nt every decisin we make will be the right chice fr us. I learned later that quitting my ne and nly surce f incme t start an e-cmmerce business frm nthing was a recipe fr financial disaster. N, that decisin was nt the right ne at the time. Perhaps I shuld’ve fllwed the advice I give tday: Build yur business while wrking a full-time jb s that yu can wrk frm a place f stability. But then again, I wuldn’t have learned such a valuable lessn had I nt acted upn what was truly imprtant t me at the time—the freedm f pursuing my wn dream, n my wn terms.
We regret what’s in the past and can’t be changed. We cmpare the chices we made yesterday t an ideal path that we think we shuld have taken—we simply imagine it t be a better path. What is wrse is when stuck in regret, we lse ur cntrl ver what matters mst: What we d with ur time, tday.
There’s a much better way t lk at regret—a mre mindful way—and it can be seen at a place where actin, reflectin, and gratitude meet.
S whenever yu find yurself caught in regret, stp and ask yurself these tw questins: “What have I learned frm this? And hw have I grwn because f it?” Perhaps yu might just shift yur viewpint frm that f being upset and regretful t being appreciative and grateful.
40. What did Brian’s questin make the writer realize?
___________________________________________________________
41. List the tw wrds the authr uses t describe the viewpint peple shuld take when facing regret.
___________________________________________________________
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
When peple get stuck in regret, what makes the situatin wrse is that past chices can’t be changed.
___________________________________________________________
43. What has been yur biggest regret during yur high schl life? What have yu learned frm this? (In abut 40 wrds)
