At my first lessn in Chinese calligraphy, my teacher tld me plainly: “Nw I will teach yu hw t write yur name. And t make it beautiful.” I felt my breath catch. I was curius.
Grwing up in Singapre, I had an unusual relatinship with my Chinese name. My parents are Chinese, s they asked frtune tellers t decide my name, aiming fr maximum luck. As a result, I ended up with a nnsense and embarrassing name: Chen Yiwen, meaning, rughly, “ld”, “barley （薏米）” and “warm”.
When I arrived in America fr cllege at 18, I put n an American ac cent and abandned my Chinese name. When I mved t Hng Kng in 2021, after 14 years in the States, I decided t learn calligraphy. Why nt get back in tuch with my heritage? I thught.
In calligraphy, the idea is t cpy the ld masters’ techniques, thereby refining yur wn. Every week, thugh, my teacher wuld give uncmfrtably n-the-nse assessments f my persn. “Yu need t be braver,” he nce bserved. “Have cnfidence. Try t prduce a bld strke （笔画）.” Fr years, I had prided myself n presenting an image f cnfidence, but my writing gave me away.
I was trying t make sense f this practice. Yu must visualize the wrd as it is t be written and leave a trace f yurself in it. As a bdily practice, calligraphy culd g beynd its wn cultural restrictins. Culd it help me g beynd mine? My teacher nce said t me, “When yu lk at the wrd, yu see the bdy. Thugh a wrd n the page is tw-dimensinal, it cntains multitudes, cnveying the frce yu’ve applied, the energy f yur hld, the arch f yur spine （脊柱）.” I had been learning calligraphy t get in tuch with my cultural rts, but what I was really seeking was a return t myself. Nw I have sensed that the pleasure ut f calligraphy allws me t knw myself mre fully.
During a recent lessn, my teacher pinted at the wrd I had just finished, telling me: “This wrd is much better. I can see the chices yu made, yur calculatins, yur flw. Trust yurself. This wrd is yurs.” He might as well have said, “This wrd is yu.”
（ ）24．What did the authr initially think f her name “Chen Yiwen”?
A．It was lucky s she gladly accepted it.
B．She felt prud f its symblic meaning.
C．She understd the intentin but still disliked it.
D．Its strange prnunciatin made her embarrassed.
（ ）25．Why did the authr decide t learn calligraphy?
A．T pick up a new hbby. B．T recnnect with her rigin.
C．T gain insights int a new culture. D．T fit in with lcal cmmunity.
（ ）26．Frm the teacher’s wrds, the authr learns that calligraphy ______.
A．reflects the creatr’s spirits B．cmes frm creative energy
C．highlights the design f strkes D．depends n cntinuus practice
（ ）27．What des the authr intend t tell us?
A．Appreciate what ur culture ffers. B．Find yur inner self frm calligraphy.
C．A great teacher leads yu t truth. D．We are the sum f what we create.

In 1835, William Talbt finally succeeded in prducing a phtgraph f his cuntry huse. He declared that his was the first huse ever knwn t have drawn its wn picture. The drawing was frmed “by the actin f light upn sensitive paper.” Phtgraphy ffered nature a “pencil” t paint herself thrugh ptical （光学的） and chemical means alne.
By the mid-nineteenth century, peple n lnger needed t hire a draftsman t draw detailed images because the prcess culd be cmpleted instantly with a camera. Advcates fr the technlgy stated that nt nly was it mre precise than the human hand—it was faster and cheaper.
The remval f human fallibility in the creating prcess was ne f phtgraphy’s biggest selling pints, but this als started debates abut the new medium’s implicatins fr visual culture. Culd images made largely by a machine be cnsidered art? If s, where did human creativity fit in this prcess?
As the twenty-first century becmes increasingly autmated, mre and mre peple attempt t identify where human agency exists in the technlgically driven wrld. Images generated with artificial intelligence by cmpanies like OpenAI are stimulating questins like thse that emerged with the cming f the phtgraph. By typing a sentence, users can generate “new” images cmpsed frm images cllected acrss the Internet. The result has been a fld f Al-generated images in places that are previusly unique t human authrs. Painting cmpetitins, cmmercial graphic design and the fashin f prtraiture （肖像） have all since cllided （碰撞） with the technlgy in trubling ways.
The fine arts were thught t be a final hld-ut f human creativity, but the surprisingly high quality f Al-generated images is prducing deeper questins abut the nature f riginality. If the histry f phtgraphy tells us anything, it’s that the debate wn’t be settled quickly, straightfrwardly, r by the institutins we typically assciate with cultural gate keeping.
（ ）28．Why did Talbt declare that his huse had drawn its wn picture?
A．T dwnplay human factrs in the creatin.
B．T investigate a supernatural phenmenn.
C．T shw his advanced knwledge in science.
D．T demnstrate the beauty f his cuntry huse.
（ ）29．What des the underlined wrd “fallibility” mean in paragraph 3?
A．Expecting a high price. B．Detailing the images.
C．Being likely t make errrs. D．Becming sensitive t light.
（ ）30．What d Open AI and cameras have in cmmn?
A．They imprve the taste f beauty. B．They advcate fashin designs.
C．They challenge human agency. D．They prduce riginal images.
（ ）31．What did the authr indicate by referring t the histry f phtgraphy?
A．Cultural gatekeepers will slve the issue as they did.
B．AI-generated images will g thrugh a similar debate.
C．The nature f riginality will be held in human hands.
D．The fine arts will include phtgraphy and AI images.

There are clse t 7,000 languages spken n Earth. Hwever, it’s estimated that by the end f this century, up t 50% f them may be lst. It’s cmmnly thught that majrity languages tend t be valued fr being useful and fr prmting prgress, while minrity languages are seen as barriers t prgress, and the value placed n them is seen mainly as sentimental （感情用事的）. But is sentimentality really the nly mtivatin fr preserving language diversity?
Speakers f endangered languages ften live in remte areas with unique landfrm. It is quite cmmn fr these languages t distinguish between hundreds mre types f plants and animals than thse knwn t mdern science. Fr example, in Sutheast Asia, sme tribes have discvered the medicinal prperties f ver sixty-five hundred plant species. This has led t many f landmark achievements in medicine.
It was nce believed that the limits f ne’s language defined the limits f ne’s thught. This thery, called the Sapir-Wharf hypthesis （假说）, has been largely rejected in favr f the imprved versin, which assumes that the language we speak des nt set the limits f ur thughts, but it des direct ur fcus in certain ways. Fr example, English is a tense-based language. It’s nearly impssible t talk abut ding smething withut specifying the time. This differs frm Chinese. Thus, part f the richness f language is that it allws us t rganize the wrld in s many unique ways.
Sme languages categrize the wrld in ways s different frm ur wn that they are difficult t cnceptualize （概念化）. The United States emplyed native Navaj speakers t create a system f message cding during the Secnd Wrld War. The Japanese were never able t break it, and the “cde talkers” are ften cited tday as having helped decide the utcme f the war.
As we’ve already seen, minrity languages are valuable fr many practical reasns. In cnclusin, I’d say the shrt answer is yes—dying languages are certainly wrth saving!
（ ）32．What d peple tend t think f minrity languages?
A．Valueless. B．Time-hnred. C．Infrmal. D．Stable.
（ ）33．Hw can we benefit frm endangered languages accrding t the authr?
A．We can discver drugs in a much safer way.B．We dn’t have t rely n mdern medicine.
C．We can acquire a brad knwledge f nature.D．We can learn hw t prtect plants and animals.
（ ）34．Why des the authr mentin the Secnd Wrld War?
A．T crrect the Sapir-Wharf hypthesis.B．T prve the value f minrity languages.
C．T shw wars’ rle in preserving a language.D．T explain ways t cnserve sme languages.
（ ）35．What wuld be a suitable title fr the text?
A．Are Majrity Languages Wrth Valuing?B．Are We Willing t Save Dying Languages?
C．Shuld Endangered Languages be Saved?D．Is the Future f Minrity Languages Bright?

One sunny afternn, I was playing in the backyard when I nticed a beautiful shiny piece f paper lying n the table. It was leftver aluminum fil （锡纸） frm a package my mum had pened. I picked it up and was immediately attracted by its sparkling appearance. Curisity gt the best f me, and I culdn’t help but ask my dad abut it.

Unable t resist the urge t experiment, I cut a piece f aluminum fil and flded it int a small square cntainer. I added sme water int the cntainer and placed it in the micrwave. With my eyes wide pen, I anxiusly watched the aluminum fil cntainer, filled with anticipatin. But befre I culd see any changes in the water, suddenly a burst f fire erupted frm the micrwave, surprising me. I quickly rushed t unplug the appliance and cllapsed nt the flr, feeling a great fear.

The activity began at 3:00 p. m., lasting three hurs. At the beginning, a vlunteer delivered a mving speech, mirrring the life f the needy students.

My dad, hearing the sund, hurried ver and asked, “What happened?” I explained the situatin, feeling embarrassed and frightened by the unexpected utcme. My dad cmfrted me and explained patiently, “Metal shuld never be put in the micrwave. It can cause a fire risk. Scientific experiments are serius and cannt be blindly cnducted. Therefre, be careful with the way yu d smething and yu’ll be clser t yur gal,” I listened attentively t my dad’s wrds and felt a sense f relief knwing that n ne was hurt.
Reflecting n my dad’s instructive wrds, I began cleaning the mess. With glves n, I carefully picked up the black bits f tin fil and glass pieces acrss the kitchen flr and wiped away water stains frm the stve tp. The cleaning prcess felt like penning a reflective learning summary. I understd knwledge withut cautin is a duble-edged swrd and that science experiments require precisin and careful planning. I prmise t apprach future experiments mindfully, seeking guidance and aware f ptential cnsequences. Frm that day n, I became mre cautius and well-infrmed.

This is Suzie n the Student Radi Statin. I have the results f the entertainment survey we did last week here at the university. Last Thursday, we interviewed a ttal f 150 students. 70% f them liked ging ut with friends mre than anything else. I had expected them t say playing sprts r listening t music. Next n the list was watching TV. Mst students spent 15 hurs a week ding that. But smething that surprised me was that sme students cnsidered shpping t be entertainment. S, what d students dislike ding? Ging t the theater was nt very ppular at all. It culd be because a lt f students simply dn’t have the mney t buy the tickets.
