Hwever, n ne spke. My mum and my sister had their eyes shut t rest, unaware f anything wrng. I decided I culd nt disturb them. I culd have ffered my place but I was already squashed（挤扁） between my mum and my sister.

Fr better r wrse, we might be in the Age f the Grup Chat. In a recent survey, mst peple said they felt stressed ut by grup messages, which can feel like a part-time jb.
Cnnectin is wnderful. Grexts, shrt fr grup texts, have the feature f imitating（模仿） the casual back-and-frth f a dialgue, and the result can be mre dynamic and fun than a tw-persn thread. Having a chat ging als means yu have a space t share yur updates thrughut the day, a reminder that yu’re part f smething.
Sme researchers call this “ambient（周围的） virtual presence”: Even when yu’re alne, yu’re nt alne. One researcher cmpares this phenmenn t echlcatin（回声定位）, the prcess that sme animals, such as bats and dlphins, use t lcate bjects: They prduce a cntinuus sund and use the resulting ech t sense their surrundings. Humans might use technlgies such as grup chats in a similar way—as a call-and-respnse, taking in infrmatin abut their scial netwrks and lcating themselves within thse webs.
But taking in t many signals can be verwhelming. Prfessr Bayer argued that grup chats can create a “waterfall type f effect”, where messages keep flding in and adding up. Eventually, yu’re underwater. Anther researcher suggested that different chat members all bring their wn persnalities, cmmunicatin styles, and expectatins fr grup nrms. Withut a standard etiquette（礼仪）, peple have varied pinins abut what degree f respnsiveness is required—which can cause real tensin.
Grext anxiety is hard t reslve because it isn’t just abut the grup-chat r even mbile technlgy in general; it’s abut the tensin between being ur wn persn and being respnsible t thers. Ultimately, mst f us d want cnnectin, even if it invlves sme duties. A general advice is t give up greats that dn’t really interest yu.
28．What is the feature f Grexts?
A．Being mre wnderful than a dialgue.
B．Keeping as fun as a tw-persn thread.
C．Sharing yur updates thrughut the day.
D．Imitating the casual back-and-frth f cmmunicatin.
29．Hw might humans use grup chats like echlcatin?
A．By prducing a cntinuus sund.
B．By detecting sme bats and dlphins.
C．By using the resulting ech t sense their surrundings.
D．By taking in infrmatin abut scial netwrks and lcating themselves.
30．What is Paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A．Prblems caused by grup chats.B．Imprtance f a standard etiquette.
C．Messages keeping flding in and adding up.D．What degree f respnsiveness is required.
31．What can we infer abut grup chat frm the text?
A．It is a part-time jb.B．It is just a way t keep relatinship.
C．It brings us mre fright than pleasure.D．It helps us find true friends.

The first apes evlved 20 millin years ag in the frests where they wuld g up a tree t get their fd, and then cme back dwn t mve n t the next tree. Getting ut f a tree presents all kinds f new challenges. Big apes can’t affrd t fall because it culd kill r badly injure them. Natural selectin wuld have favured thse with bdy structures that allwed them t descend（下来） safely.
Dartmuth researchers reprt in the jurnal Ryal Sciety Open Science that apes prbably evlved free-mving shulders and flexible elbws t slw their descent frm trees as gravity pulled n their heavier bdies. These flexible bdy parts passed n frm ancestral apes wuld have allwed early humans t climb trees at night fr safety and cmedwn in the daylight unhurt. When early humans transitined frm frests t pen savannas（热带稀树草原）, flexible shulders and elbws were crucial fr gathering fd and using tls fr hunting and defense.
The researchers used sprts analysis and statistical sftware t study hw primates（灵长目动物） like chimpanzees and small mnkeys called mangabeys climbed in the wild. They fund that chimps and mangabeys scaled（攀爬） trees similarly, with shulders and elbws mstly bent clse t the bdy. When descending, hwever, chimpanzees extended their arms abve their heads t hld n t branches, much like a persn using a ladder, t cunteract（抵消） their heavier weight pulling them dwnward.
Luke Fannin, the lead authr f the study, emphasized that their findings highlight the imprtance f “dwn climbing” in the evlutin f apes and early humans. He explained, “Our research intrduces the idea that dwn climbing played a significant rle in shaping the structural differences between mnkeys and apes, which eventually shwed in humans.”
“Our field has thught abut apes climbing up trees fr a lng time but we’ve been ignring the secnd half f this behaviur,” said Prfessr Jeremy DeSilva. The findings are amng the first t identify the significance f “dwn climbing” in the evlutin f apes and early humans.
32．Why shuld big apes prtect themselves frm falling ff a tree accrding t the text?
A．T avid being hurt r killed.B．T avid being hunted by humans.
C．T avid being caught by ther animals.D．T avid being laughed by ther apes.
33．What d researchers use t study hw primates climbed in the wild?
A．A ladder.B．Sprts sftware.
C．Statistical analysis.D．Sprts analysis and statistical sftware.
34．What can be learned frm Luke Fannin’s wrds?
A．Apes became humans because f dwn climbing.
B．The secnd half f climbing up trees haven’t been ignred befre.
C．Dwn climbing was essential in develping the differences between mnkeys and apes.
D．Scientists has thught abut apes climbing up trees fr a shrt time.
35．What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A．Mnkeys and Chimpanzees: Studies in Nature
B．Mangabeys and Mankind: A Cmmn Study f Climbing
C．Apes’ Climbing Methds: Hw t Descend Safely
D．Shulders and Elbws: Evlved as Brakes（刹车） fr Dwn Climbing Apes

31．B 推理判断题。根据全文内容可知，文中提到了群聊带来的好处，也讨论了它引发的一些问题。由此我们可以推断，对于群聊，我们虽然需要它，但是也不要过分依赖它，不要让它影响自己的生活，它只是维护关系的一种方式而已。
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了有关猿类爬树和下树的实验研究，说明了肩膀和肘部在猿类下树过程中发挥的重要作用，强调了研究猿类下树过程的重要性。
32．A 细节理解题。根据第一段第三句“Big apes can’t affrd t fall because it culd kill r badly injure them. （大猿不能掉下来，因为这可能会杀死或严重伤害它们。）”可知，大猿避免从树上掉下来，是为了防止受伤或摔死。
33．D 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“The researchers used sprts analysis and statistical sftware t study hw primates like chimpanzees and small mnkeys called mangabeys climbed in the wild.”可知，研究人员利用运动分析和统计软件来研究灵长类动物是如何在野外爬树的。
34．C 推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“Our research intrduces the idea that dwn climbing played a significant rle in shaping the structural differences between mnkeys and apes, which eventually shwed in humans.”可知，Luke Fannin认为从树上下来对于形成猴子和猿的区别十分的重要。
35．D 标题归纳题。根据第三段最后两句“They fund that chimps and mangabeys scaled trees similarly, with shulders and elbws mstly bent clse t the bdy. When descending, hwever, chimpanzees extended their arms abve their heads t hld n t branches, much like a persn using a ladder, t cunteract their heavier weight pulling them dwnward.（他们发现，黑猩猩和白眉猴爬上树的方式相似,肩膀和肘部大多弯曲，接近身体。然而，当黑猩猩下树时，它们会将手臂伸过头顶，抓住树枝，就像人类使用梯子一样，以抵消它们较重的体重对它们的向下拉力。）”及第四段第一句“Luke Fannin, the lead authr f the study, emphasized thattheir findings highlight the imprtance f ‘dwn climbing’ in the evlutin f apes and early humans.（该研究的主要作者Luke Fannin强调，他们的发现强调了‘向下攀登’在类人猿和早期人类进化中的重要性。）”并结合文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了有关猿类爬树和下树的实验研究，说明了肩膀和肘部在猿类下树过程中发挥的重要作用。所以短文的最佳标题为“肩膀和肘部：进化为猿下树的刹车”。

What’s mre, we started ur wn radi club, where I gt prfessinal guidance frm my cach and acted as ne f the hsts. I made rapid prgress in the prcess. That’s when a big dream tk rt in my heart.
After several years, I went int a radi statin, hping t becme a bradcast jurnalist. My first attempt failed due t my nervusness. Sadness seized me. Luckily, a prducer at the radi statin wh was putting tgether a weekly prgramme fr blind peple asked if I wuld have a secnd try the next day. I made it. Later, I presented a news prgramme fr the radi that my dad had never missed. Althugh by then he’d been dead, he’d have realized that his inspired Christmas present had changed my life.
