What are pillws really stuffed with? Nt physically, but symblically? The questin ccurred t me with the phts in the news and scial media frm the 50 cities arund the wrld that staged public celebratins fr Internatinal Pillw Fight Day. Armed with nthing mre than bring-ur-wn sacrificial cushins(垫子), strangers struck heavily each ther in playful cttn frm Amsterdam t Atlanta, Warsaw t Washingtn DC. But why? Is there anything mre t this delightful celebratin?
As a cultural sign, the pillw is likely sft. Since at least the 16th century, the humble pillw has been given unexpected meanings. The Chinese playwright Tang Xianzu tells a famus stry abut a wise man wh meets a depressed yung schlar at an inn and ffers him a magic pillw filled with the mst vivid dreams f a seemingly mre fulfilling life. When the yung man awakens t discver that his happy 50-year dream has in fact cme and gne in the shrt space f an afternn’s nap, ur impressin f the pillw’s pwer shifts frm wnder t terrr.
Subsequent writers have likewise seized upn the pillw. When the 19th-century English nvelist Charltte Brnte petically bserved “a ruff1ed (不平的)mind makes a restless pillw”, she didn’t just change the expected rder f the adjectives and nuns, but instead she made unclear the bundaries between mind and matter—the thing resting and the thing rested upn.
It’s a trick perhaps Brnte learned frm the Renaissance philspher Mntaigne, wh nce insisted that “ignrance is the sft est pillw n which a man can rest his head”. On Mntaigne’s thinking, intelligence and happiness cnfrnt(对抗)each ther frever in a pillw fight that nly ne can win.
With the wrds f Tang, Brnte, and Mntaigne, we can perhaps mre easily measure the attractin f the glbal pillw fight. Like a ritual f release, the annual internatinal pillw fight amunts t a kind f cleansing, a brushing ff f daily wrries: an emptying f the wrld’s cllective mind. Rather than a launch-pad fr weightless rest, the pillw is a symbl f heavy thught: an anchr(锚)that drags the wrld’s sul dwn —ne that must be lightened.
4. The example f Tang Xianzu is used t illustrate that ________.
A. pillws give peple satisfactry dreams
B. dreams are always wnderful while the real wrld is cruel
C. peple’s impressin f pillws changes frm wnder t terrr
D. pillws symblically cnvey the meaning in cntrast t their sft appearance
5. Frm the text, we can learn that Charltte Brnte ________.
A. wrte pems abut pillws
B. regarded pillws as reflectins f ur minds
C. shared the same viewpint as Tang Xianzu n pillws
D. was likely t have been influenced by the thughts f the Renaissance
6. The underlined sentence in paragraph 4 mst prbably means ________.
A. pillws give us cmfrt
B. pillws make peple mre intelligent
C. peple with t many thughts have less inner peace
D. peple can easily fall asleep when they knw nthing
7. Accrding t the authr, why is Pillw Fight Day s ppular arund the wrld?
A. Because it is a ritual release.
B. Because it makes life delightful.
C. Because it cmfrts restless minds.
D. Because it cntains a prfund meaning f life.
C
Cral reefs(珊瑚礁)are amng the mst prductive ecsystems in the wrld. They’re als in serius danger—climate change and ther threats are killing them ff. But researchers have cme up with an inventin they think culd help the reefs: 3D-printed crals.
At the heart f reef ecsystems lies a symbisis(共生关系)between crals and algae(藻类). Crals use light and they’re phtsynthesizing(光合作用). The algae inside crals’ tissues(组织)make use f the light t generate energy, and that energy is then transferred t the cral animal hst. That animal hst, in return, transfers certain by-prducts t the algae, s they have a symbisis ging n.
This bnd between algae and crals is what makes reefs s incredibly prductive. Because f this symbisis, crals have evlved cmplex skeletal (骨骼的)and tissue structures fr cllecting sunlight which usually fades rapidly. Thrugh the skeletn, light is pumped and guided int deeper, therwise shaded areas.
Scientists cpied sme tricks that crals use. They imaged crals t analyze their skeletal and tissue makeup and then used a 3D biprinter t build a cmplicated structure that mimics real crals. The printed crals were made f bimaterials like cellulse(纤维素)and had algae planted in them.
The researchers replicated(复制)cral structure s well that the algae grew very quickly —up t 100 times mre densely than they nrmally grw in the lab. The 3D-printed creatin culd be used as a medium t grw algae t prduce bienergy and als as a tl fr studying the cral-algae symbisis.
Of curse, there are many ther ways this technlgy can be further scaled and imprved t create smething like artificial crals in the future. S this is just the first step, where they created the animal hst, but they are nw cntinuing t further replicate this animal-algal symbisis and develping mdel systems. Eventually, it wuld be nice that this can have direct applicatins in cral reef restratin.
8. What is the functin f the algae inside crals’ tissues?
A. T perfrm phtsynthesis.
B. T pump light int shaded areas.
C. T build cmplex skeletal structures.
D. T prduce energy needed by their hst.
9. What d algae get in the symbitic relatinship with crals?
A. Strnger tissues. B. Certain by-prducts.
C. Bimaterials like cellulse. D. An animal hst.
10. Scientists use 3D-printed cral structure t ________.
A. make a study f the cral-algae symbisis
B. strengthen the bnd between algae and crals
C. change cean cnditins fr crals t survive
D. remve the harmful algae inside the tissues f crals
11. What is the best title f the text?
A. Fantastic Cexistence f Crals and Algae
B. Crals Evlving Symbisis t Avid Extinctin
C. Cral Reefs: Prductive but Endangered Ecsystem
D.3D-Printed Technlgy Hpefully Saving Cral Reefs
