up to Bopsy抯 third floor open window and 14 firemen and two fire-women climbed up the ladder into Bopsy抯 room. They hugged him and held him and told him how much they loved him. With his dying breath, Bopsy looked up at the fire chief and said, 揅hief, am I really a fireman now?”

them to pursue their goals. Rao insists that starting out small doesn抰 matter, as long as you抮e passionate about it.
She told Time contributing editor Angelina Jolie in an interview that her science pursuits

sensor technology at the Denver Water quality research lab, and my mum was like, 慉 what?挃 Rao told Jolie. She said that work 搃s going to be in our generation's hands pretty soon. So if no one else is gonna do it, I抦 gonna do it.”
In a world where science is increasingly questioned or challenged, Rao insisted that its
pursuit is an act of kindness, the best way that a younger generation can better the world.
揥e have science in everything we抮e involved in, and I think that抯 the biggest thing to put
out there, that science is cool, innovating (创新) is cool, and anybody can be an innovator,? Rao said. 揂nybody can do science.”

31. What抯 the purpose of the text?
A. To inspire the youth. B. To introduce new inventions.
C. To improve social conditions. D. To present artificial intelligence.

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) included
on December 17, 2020 China抯 Tai Chi on the Representative List of the Intangible (无形的) Cultural Heritage of Humanity. The decision was announced during the online meeting of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage held from December 14 to 19 in Kingston, capital of Jamaica.
揃orn in the mid-17th century in a small village named Chenjiagou located in Central
China抯 Henan province, Tai Chi is not only a kind of traditional Wushu integrated with slow movements and deep breathing, but is also deeply rooted in many areas of Chinese culture, such as medicine and philosophy.? Zhu Xianghua says, who is the son of the famous Tai Chi master Zhu Tiancai.
Although it has spread to more than 150 countries and regions, attracting more than 100
million people to practice, the idea that Tai Chi is for the elderly has stopped many young people practicing the ancient Wushu. They think of it as a slow exercise, which is specially made and better suited for their grandparents. Instead, many young people are turning to the Indian practice of yoga to relieve stress, which was placed on the UNESCO抯 List in 2019.
In order to promote Tai Chi, joint efforts have been made from individuals and the Chinese
government in the last decades. Xi抋n Jiaotong University requires students to learn Tai Chi. Wang Yunbing, a professor in the university抯 sports center, stressed that Tai Chi is not only
good physical exercise ? researchers from the American College of Rheumatology find that it
can help manage several diseases ? but is also connected to ancient Chinese civilization. Since 2014, the World Tai Chi Championships have been held every two years by the International Wushu Federation. It provides a platform for communication and learning between the Tai Chi masters and Tai Chi lovers around the globe. In January 2020, Tai Chi became an official event in the 2026 Dakar Youth Olympic Games.

entered a new school, so he had no friends yet. On Monday morning, he was nearly late for school. The night before, his family attended his cousin抯 wedding and reached home late, which was why he couldn抰 get up on time as usual.
At school, Asad could not pay attention to anything and wanted the bell to ring so that he
could buy something to eat. After a few hours, when the bell rang, Asad quickly opened his
schoolbag to find his money, but just then he remembered that he had left for school in a hurry in the morning and forgotten to take money. He looked under his books, hoping to find some money but there was nothing.
Not knowing what to do, he walked out of the classroom and sat on a bench in front of the
canteen. He saw a few of his classmates there. Among them was Fahad. He was one of the richest kids in his class, but he was a very arrogant boy who thought everyone else was a loser. But as Asad was new, he didn抰 know much about Fahad.
When he went towards Fahad and asked if he could borrow some money for his lunch,
Fahad laughed a lot and said, 揑 knew you were a loser, maybe a beggar?? Fahad laughed out so
loud that other kids also heard and made fun of the situation. He didn抰 answer Fahad, and slowly walked back towards an empty bench.
When he reached the bench, he noticed something lying near it. It was a wallet. He picked it
up and recognized it was Fahad抯, as he remembered Fahad showing it to his friends and telling that his uncle bought it for him from the UK. There was quite a lot of money inside for a kid.
