My plan t learn t play the cell（大提琴）was a healthy chice. S I tk the next inncent step f ging t a shp that sells and rents string instruments, especially vilins and cells. The place was a hle-in-the-wall, up a steep flight f stairs. Instruments left a narrw path t the cunter where a wman with grey hair and warm eyes greeted me. Since I culdnˈt frm a questin abut what I wanted, I just std there explring the scene, which felt enrmusly pleasurable.
I rented a cell, a bw, and a case t hld them. What attracted me t the cell was its enrmus size and its sft, smth, and memrable sunds. Itˈs an instrument made f beautifully plished wd that I culd wrap my arms arund and feel its pwerful vibratins（振动）when the strings were played. That was a gd starting pint fr me. The nly prblem was that I didnˈt knw hw t play it.
Thereˈs a ppular belief that the cell is a particularly difficult instrument t learn. Anther is the admnitin, “Dnˈt bther if yu are a beginner ver age 10!”
Well, I was 70, and what thers thught n lnger influenced me. And besides, I thught f the wrds f Dr. Chen, wh suggested that learning causes physical changes in the brain. S I fund a teacher wh had respect fr lder adult beginners and I practiced diligently, daily fr years, and smetimes disheartened, but I kept up. Iˈm happy t reprt that nw, mre than a decade later, I can hld my wn in a string tri and tw quartets and even a senir cmmunity band. Of curse, Iˈll never sund like Y-Y Ma but yu culd recgnize a Mzart piece if yu heard me play it. And, mre imprtantly, I dnˈt need t please anyne but myself.
Whether itˈs a pleasurable pastime r a new career, the starting pint is the same: wnder, curisity, determinatin, and the desire t keep yur brain sharp.

Imagine being able t use energy frm the sun all the time, even when itˈs night. Thatˈs the idea that scientists at Caltech (Califrnia Institute f Technlgy) are explring. Theyˈre wrking n cllecting sunlight in space and sending its energy t Earth.
Caltechˈs scientists have created a special tl fr this prject. They call it MAPLE. MAPLE and tw ther devices are part f a prject that was sent int space in January, 2023. MAPLEˈs jb is t test the idea f sending energy wirelessly frm space t Earth. Weˈre used t using wires t mve electrical energy frm ne place t anther. But sending energy withut wires is a lt tugher.
The methd used by Caltechˈs scientists depends n the way waves act when they meet. Imagine tw waves cming tgether as they travel in the same directin. If the tps f the waves line up, they cmbine t make a bigger wave. But if the tp f ne wave lines up with the lw pint f the ther, the waves cancel each ther ut. The Caltech team has fund a way t cntrl the timing f lts f micrwaves s that they can cmbine their pwer, and fcus the energy in ne directin. Itˈs a little like using a magnifying（放大的）glass t fcus sunlight int a small, ht pint f light.
T prve that the system culd wrk, MAPLE sent energy t tw devices just 30 centimeters away in space. This energy was then turned int electricity, which made tw small lights light up. Next, MAPLE sent energy all the way dwn t a lab at Caltech. The scientists were able t detect the energy, prving that itˈs pssible t send slar energy t Earth frm space.
Dr. Hajimiri, ne f the prjectˈs leaders, thinks that ne day, the system culd be extremely useful. He believes that in the future, weˈll be able t send energy t remte regins and areas destryed by war r natural disaster.
28. What is the challenge in Caltechˈs prject with MAPLE?
29. Hw des the Caltech team fcus slar pwer?
30. What ptential benefit culd the system bring in future accrding t Dr. Hajimiri?
31.What can be a suitable title fr the text?
On the streets f Manhattan and Washingtn, D.C., in neighbrhds in Seul and parks in Paris, ginkg（银杏）trees are lsing their leaves in respnse t the first gust f freezing winter air. This leaf drp, gradual at first, and then sudden, carpets streets with glden, fan-shaped leaves. Scientists are dcumenting evidence f leaf drp happening later and later, a pssible result f warmer climate arund the wrld.
Thanks t fssils fund in Nrth Dakta, scientists fund a ginkg has genetically similar ancestrs dating back 170 millin years t the Jurassic Perid. “It almst went extinct. Then humans rescued it and spread it arund the wrld. Itˈs such a great evlutinary（进化）and cultural stry,” says Peter Crane, a ginkg expert.
One thery fr the decline f the ginkg species began 130 millin years ag, when flwering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted mre pllinatrs（传粉者）than ginkgs. “Itˈs pssible that ginkgs were elbwed ut f the way,” says Crane. Already cmpeting t survive, ginkgs began t disappear during a time f glbal cling that began arund 66 millin years ag. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ag, the remaining survivrs were fund in China.
Ginkg trees are smelly. “My guess is that they were eaten by animals that liked smelly things. They then passed thrugh their bdy and grew.” Crane says. Thse same seeds may have helped ginkg find favr with humans 1,000 years ag. Once cleaned f their uter layer, ginkg seeds are safe t eat. Itˈs then, when the trees had lng since disappeared elsewhere, that peple in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgs spread acrss the wrld. Nw itˈs seemingly naturally resistant t insects and high levels f air pllutin.
Crane isnˈt wrried abut its future, thugh. The ppularity f the species will help it survive. “Thugh its status in the wild may be difficult t access, itˈs a plant thatˈs unlikely t ever g extinct,” he says.
32. What may have caused the further delay f ginkgˈs leaf drp?
33. What des paragraph 3 mainly talk abut?
34. What might have cntributed t ginkgsˈ survival?
35. Hw des Crane feel abut ginkgsˈ future?

My plan t learn t play the cell（大提琴）was a healthy chice. S I tk the next inncent step f ging t a shp that sells and rents string instruments, especially vilins and cells. The place was a hle-in-the-wall, up a steep flight f stairs. Instruments left a narrw path t the cunter where a wman with grey hair and warm eyes greeted me. Since I culdnˈt frm a questin abut what I wanted, I just std there explring the scene, which felt enrmusly pleasurable.
I rented a cell, a bw, and a case t hld them. What attracted me t the cell was its enrmus size and its sft, smth, and memrable sunds. Itˈs an instrument made f beautifully plished wd that I culd wrap my arms arund and feel its pwerful vibratins（振动）when the strings were played. That was a gd starting pint fr me. The nly prblem was that I didnˈt knw hw t play it.
Thereˈs a ppular belief that the cell is a particularly difficult instrument t learn. Anther is the admnitin, “Dnˈt bther if yu are a beginner ver age 10!”
Well, I was 70, and what thers thught n lnger influenced me. And besides, I thught f the wrds f Dr. Chen, wh suggested that learning causes physical changes in the brain. S I fund a teacher wh had respect fr lder adult beginners and I practiced diligently, daily fr years, and smetimes disheartened, but I kept up. Iˈm happy t reprt that nw, mre than a decade later, I can hld my wn in a string tri and tw quartets and even a senir cmmunity band. Of curse, Iˈll never sund like Y-Y Ma but yu culd recgnize a Mzart piece if yu heard me play it. And, mre imprtantly, I dnˈt need t please anyne but myself.
Whether itˈs a pleasurable pastime r a new career, the starting pint is the same: wnder, curisity, determinatin, and the desire t keep yur brain sharp.

Imagine being able t use energy frm the sun all the time, even when itˈs night. Thatˈs the idea that scientists at Caltech (Califrnia Institute f Technlgy) are explring. Theyˈre wrking n cllecting sunlight in space and sending its energy t Earth.
Caltechˈs scientists have created a special tl fr this prject. They call it MAPLE. MAPLE and tw ther devices are part f a prject that was sent int space in January, 2023. MAPLEˈs jb is t test the idea f sending energy wirelessly frm space t Earth. Weˈre used t using wires t mve electrical energy frm ne place t anther. But sending energy withut wires is a lt tugher.
The methd used by Caltechˈs scientists depends n the way waves act when they meet. Imagine tw waves cming tgether as they travel in the same directin. If the tps f the waves line up, they cmbine t make a bigger wave. But if the tp f ne wave lines up with the lw pint f the ther, the waves cancel each ther ut. The Caltech team has fund a way t cntrl the timing f lts f micrwaves s that they can cmbine their pwer, and fcus the energy in ne directin. Itˈs a little like using a magnifying（放大的）glass t fcus sunlight int a small, ht pint f light.
T prve that the system culd wrk, MAPLE sent energy t tw devices just 30 centimeters away in space. This energy was then turned int electricity, which made tw small lights light up. Next, MAPLE sent energy all the way dwn t a lab at Caltech. The scientists were able t detect the energy, prving that itˈs pssible t send slar energy t Earth frm space.
Dr. Hajimiri, ne f the prjectˈs leaders, thinks that ne day, the system culd be extremely useful. He believes that in the future, weˈll be able t send energy t remte regins and areas destryed by war r natural disaster.
28. What is the challenge in Caltechˈs prject with MAPLE?
29. Hw des the Caltech team fcus slar pwer?
30. What ptential benefit culd the system bring in future accrding t Dr. Hajimiri?
31.What can be a suitable title fr the text?
On the streets f Manhattan and Washingtn, D.C., in neighbrhds in Seul and parks in Paris, ginkg（银杏）trees are lsing their leaves in respnse t the first gust f freezing winter air. This leaf drp, gradual at first, and then sudden, carpets streets with glden, fan-shaped leaves. Scientists are dcumenting evidence f leaf drp happening later and later, a pssible result f warmer climate arund the wrld.
Thanks t fssils fund in Nrth Dakta, scientists fund a ginkg has genetically similar ancestrs dating back 170 millin years t the Jurassic Perid. “It almst went extinct. Then humans rescued it and spread it arund the wrld. Itˈs such a great evlutinary（进化）and cultural stry,” says Peter Crane, a ginkg expert.
One thery fr the decline f the ginkg species began 130 millin years ag, when flwering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted mre pllinatrs（传粉者）than ginkgs. “Itˈs pssible that ginkgs were elbwed ut f the way,” says Crane. Already cmpeting t survive, ginkgs began t disappear during a time f glbal cling that began arund 66 millin years ag. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ag, the remaining survivrs were fund in China.
Ginkg trees are smelly. “My guess is that they were eaten by animals that liked smelly things. They then passed thrugh their bdy and grew.” Crane says. Thse same seeds may have helped ginkg find favr with humans 1,000 years ag. Once cleaned f their uter layer, ginkg seeds are safe t eat. Itˈs then, when the trees had lng since disappeared elsewhere, that peple in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgs spread acrss the wrld. Nw itˈs seemingly naturally resistant t insects and high levels f air pllutin.
Crane isnˈt wrried abut its future, thugh. The ppularity f the species will help it survive. “Thugh its status in the wild may be difficult t access, itˈs a plant thatˈs unlikely t ever g extinct,” he says.
32. What may have caused the further delay f ginkgˈs leaf drp?
33. What des paragraph 3 mainly talk abut?
34. What might have cntributed t ginkgsˈ survival?
35. Hw des Crane feel abut ginkgsˈ future?
