Everywhere yu g, it seems like peple are using smething t reduce the nise in their lives. They wear ver-ear headphnes n public transprtatin, during lng flights, r in pen-plan ffices, r use clred earplugs （耳塞） at cncerts. Silence is nw big business, with the glbal market fr nise-cancelling headphnes bringing $13.1 billin in 2021. Experts predict that this figure will triple by 2031. While these market-based slutins are becming ppular, they raise a questin： Are there physical and scial effects t shutting ut the wrld arund us?
Nise-cancelling technlgy was first develped in the 1950s t reduce cckpit nise fr pilts. The headphnes tday use technlgy knwn as active nise cntrl. Hwever, t much f a gd thing als has its dwnsides. Many studies have shwn that cnstant earplug wearing, day and night, ver just ne week can lead t a cnditin knwn as tinnitus （耳鸣）. "When yu stp listening t utside sunds, yur brain starts t turn up its ‘internal vlume’ s that it can still pick up n things." McAlpine says. "If yu stp the sund ging int yur ears, it’s like messing with hw yur brain is suppsed t wrk naturally."
When it cmes t distractin (干扰), the type f nise may matter as much as vlume. Mderate (适中的) backgrund nise, arund 70dB, has been fund t advance perfrmance n creative tasks, fr example. “Sme peple can wrk really effectively in buzzy cafes and even airprts, and yet they can’t fcus in the same way in an ffice. Even if it isn’t as nisy,” McAlpine says. “Yur brain in the ffice is autmatically paying attentin t all thse ther cnversatins — because they might be abut smething yu need t knw.”
Hw, then, can we deal with all the lud distractins in ur mdern lives? An ver-dependence n nise-cancelling technlgy is nt necessarily the slutin, says McAlpine. "We have given mre cntrl t utside surces ver ur sund envirnment cmpared t ur visual envirnment," he says. If peple started wearing AR/VR gggles and living in their wn virtual wrlds instead f fcusing n imprving the physical envirnment, "And that’s prblematic."
8．What is the purpse f nise-cancelling headphnes?
A.T pick up the sunds.
B.T reduce the rate f tinnitus.
C.T imprve perfrmance n creative tasks.

9．Which statement is TRUE accrding t the article?

B.Creative task perfrmance can be imprved by the mderate backgrund nise.
C.Nise-cancelling technlgy was first develped in the 1950s fr cncertgers.
D.The glbal market fr nise-cancelling headphnes is believed t drp by 2031.
10．What des the underlined wrd "buzzy" mean in the third paragraph?
A.Lively.
B.Advanced.
C.Interesting.

Have yu ever imagined an insect-inspired rbt, which weighs less than a gram, culd ne day help ut in surgery （外科手术）?
Scientists have designed this small, "insect-bt" called mCLARI that can cntrl and even change its bdy shape as it travels in different envirnments t fit thrugh gaps. It’s 2 centimeters lng, weighs less than 0.97 grams and can travel at a speed f 6 centimeters per secnd.It’s the smaller, faster replacement t CLARI, which was designed by the same team.
"Because f the rbt’s small size and ability t change shape, we expect usage f this technlgy in fur imprtant areas," the lead authr Kaushik Jayaram said. These include disaster （灾害） respnse , check n high-value bjects, envirnmental mnitring and medical treatment.
"In the lng term, we hpe such rbts will be used mre widely in mving thrugh human bdies and perfrming surgeries that can’t be easily dne at present," Jayaram said. With mCLARI, Jayaram’s team is mving clser t creating rbts that can fit in different envirnments—just like the insects they’re inspired by.
The mCLARI rbt has fur legs and can mve in narrw spaces by changing between running frward and side-t-side and can use different speeds in human bdies. Its legs are jined t its bdy thrugh jints （关节）, which enables mCLARI t change its bdy shape based n the envirnment it is in. Fr example, its legs can be lengthened up t 50% in certain spaces.
As fllw-up wrk, the scientists want t give mCLARI mre pwer and sensing ability while helping the surgeries. "We are als excited abut understanding the effect f shape change n imprving functins f rbts," Jayaram said. "And this is sure a great ne-step frward f the technlgy. The rbt will have entered the market by 2025 and will bring greater benefits t mankind, especially in medical treatment."

37．答案： experiences； teaching； that/ which； mst imprtant； a； uncmfrtable； Hwever； skills； with； misunderstd
解析： ①考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：在人生的旅途中,每个人都会经历各种各样的成长阶段。此空为谓语动词,且描述的是客观事实,应使用一般现在时,主语everyne为第三人称单数,谓语动词也应使用第三人称单数形式。故填experiences。
②考查非谓语动词。句意：这些阶段把我们塑造成我们现在成为的个体,一路上教会我们宝贵的教训。shape为谓语动词,空处需填非谓语动词作状语,根据句意,表示顺其自然的结果状语,应用现在分词形式。故填teaching。
③考查定语从句。句意：作为一名高中生,我经历了许多变化,这些变化促使了我的个人发展。此空引导定语从句,修饰先行词changes,指物,且在从句中作主语,需用关系代词that/which引导。故填that/which。
④考查形容词最高级。句意：影响我成长的最重要的经历之一是我暑假参加了一个社区服务项目。此空修饰名词experiences,需用形容词作定语,ne f结构后接形容词最高级和名词复数。故填mst imprtant。
⑤考查冠词。句意：影响我成长的最重要的经历之一是我暑假参加了一个社区服务项目。此空修饰名词短语cmmunity service prject,且为泛指,cmmunity发音以辅音音素开头,需用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
⑥考查形容词。句意：起初,我很不情愿,和老年人交往时感到不自在。此空为形容词作表语修饰主语"I",根据句意可知,应填形容词uncmfrtable"不自在的"。故填uncmfrtable。
⑦考查副词。句意：然而,随着我和他们在一起的时间越来越多,听他们讲故事,帮他们做一些小事,我开始理解同情和同情的重要性。前后句子表达转折的意思,此空修饰整个句子,需用副词hwever"然而"作状语。句首单词首字母大写。故填Hwever。
⑧考查名词复数。句意：这次经历不仅教会了我服务他人的价值,还帮助我提高了沟通技巧。此空为"develp"的宾语,需用名词作宾语,skill为可数名词,根据句意可知,此处不止一种技巧,需用名词复数形式。故填skills。
⑨考查介词。句意：我学会了如何与不同年代和背景的人交流。动词"cmmunicate"后接介词,构成短语cmmunicate with peple"与人交流"。故填with。
⑩考查非谓语动词。句意：我们以前经常吵架,我觉得被误解了。根据句意"被误解"可知,空处填入"misunderstand"的过去分词misunderstd,和felt一起构成被动语态。故填misunderstd。
