The art f writing by hand has a hnrable histry. Frm Emily Dickinsn’s elegant cursive, t Stephen King’s neat blck lettering, many f the mst famus and imprtant wrks f literature have been written by hand. Studies have shwn that writing by hand can have enrmus benefits in terms f memry, brain develpment, and even the quality f the writing itself.
Sme say that handwriting has becme a dying art since the arrival f the typewriter in the mid 1880s, even mre s due t cmputers. Hwever, despite the sense that writing n paper is ut f date, it actually has a number f very imprtant benefits.
Writing by hand is nt nly imprtant fr language prcessing and memry, it is als imprtant fr cgnitive (认知的) develpment. In learning t write by hand, the human brain must integrate sensatin, mvement cntrl, and thinking. Fr whatever reasn, it des nt d s when learning t type.
A 2021 study by the University f Tky shws that writing n paper culd help students recall material better than typing n a keybard. Likewise, a 2014 study frm the Assciatin fr Psychlgical Science shws that taking ntes n a laptp as ppsed t writing them lnghand (普通书写), leads t shallwer prcessing f the material learned. This is because when using a laptp, students will ften type ut lectures wrd by wrd, withut prcessing infrmatin and rewrding it in their wn language.
Writing by hand als helps students d better n exams. A study led by Dr. Virginia Berninger, a prfessr f educatinal psychlgy at the University f Washingtn, suggests that children wrte lnger and mre cmplex essays when they were writing by hand, as ppsed t using a keybard.
S the next time yu sit dwn t write an email t a lved ne, cnsider the pssibility that it might be better fr yur brain if yu wrte a handwritten letter instead.
28．Why des the authr mentin Emily Dickinsn and Stephen King?
A．T cmpare different writing frms.B．T highlight the the histry f writing.
C．T illustrate the advantages f writing.D．T intrduce the famus writing wrks.
29．What has been shwn t have significant cgnitive benefits?
A．Writing n paper.B．Tying n a laptp.
C．Using a typewriter.D．Learning literature wrks.
30．What can yu learn abut writing and typing frm Paragraph 4?
A．Taking ntes n laptps is favred by students.
B．There is n distinct difference in prcessing infrmatin.
C．Writing by hand helps students remember materials better.
D．Taking ntes n laptps cntributes t deeper prcessing f the material.
31．Which f the fllwing is NOT mentined as a benefit f writing n paper?

It’s a dg, it’s a fx, it’s a wlf… it’s a rbt? A new dg-like rbt has entered the field. Created t help keep airplanes and animals safe by imitating a predatr (捕食者), the Aurra, as it is knwn, will sn begin its imprtant wrk at the Fairbanks airprt in Alaska.
Accrding t The Verge, thugh nt ften discussed, the issue f airplane-animal cllisins (碰撞) at airprts is nt trivial. In 2023, 92 animal cllisins were reprted t the FAA at airprts near Alaska. And that’s just Alaska.
Trying t relieve this prblem withut harming wildlife requires sme creative thinking. And that is where Aurra cmes in. Aurra can climb rcks and stairs, and even d a little dance.
Silly as it may seem, these mvements are meant t imitate the mvements f predatrs such as fxes and wlves. Aurra can even be disguised as either a fx r a wlf, which hpefully will cause a fear respnse in the birds and ther wildlife.
And yet, despite the fact that Aurra csts abut $70,000, accrding t Ryan Marlw, Aurra’s rbt handler, the rbt is still preferable t a dg: “A brder Cllie (牧羊犬) requires fd, training, warmth, and desn’t cllect data fr us,” he tld Anchrage Daily News.
There is smething abut Aurra that aruses a sense f fun. Maybe it is the dancing, r just the very cncept f a rbt chasing birds arund. Whatever the case, here’s hping that Aurra can make airprts just a bit mre safe fr peple and animals alike.
32．What can we learn frm the example abut cllisins in Paragraph 2?
A．The harm f airplane-animal cllisins are nt wrth cnsidering.
B．The frequency f cllisin between animals and airplanes is high.
C．The issue f airplane-animal cllisins nly happens in sme cities.
D．The discussin abut the airplane-animal cllisins is cmmn.
33．What are these mvements made by Aurra used fr?
A．Scaring away the wildlife in the airprt.
B．Making the wildlife mre entertaining.
C．Respnding t the actins f wildlife.
D．Interacting with the fierce predatr.
34．What is the disadvantage f a real dg cmpared t Aurra?
A．Its unaffrdable price.B．Its demand fr care.
C．Its inaccurate data.D．Its lw efficiency.
35．What is the best title fr this passage?
A．Airplane-animal Cllisins Draws Widespread Attentin
B．The Creative Rbt Makes Flight Travel Safer fr Peple
C．An Innvative Rbt Keeps Airfields Clear f Wildlife
D．The Issue in Many Airprts Needs Urgent Respnse

Getting a gd night’s sleep desn’t just feel refreshing and energizing, it’s als essential fr physical and brain health. 36 Here are fur ways t sleep again after waking up at night.
Relax the bdy, brain, and breath
CNN suggests using deep breathing, in thrugh the nse and ut thrugh the muth, t re-relax and re-enter the sleep zne. T d this, place the hands n the belly and breathe in and ut fr a cunt f six respectively, fcusing n the stmach’s gentle rising and falling. 37 Start by tensing the muscles frm the feet t the head.
Get up and mve
Lying still and breathing deeply can help sme restless sleepers relax, but if ne is unable t return t sleep after abut 20 minutes, get ut f bed, walk t anther rm, and engage in a calm activity fr a shrt time. After a few minutes return t bed and it shuld be easier t get back t sleep.
38
If the bedrm envirnment is stimulating, it can interfere with returning t sleep. Accrding t Healthline, keeping the lights in the rm ff and using earplugs r white nise t blck ut any lud nises in the area can be helpful. 39 Lights in the rm and blue light that cmes frm a smartphne screen can reduce the level f melatnin (a hrmne that regulates sleep cycles) in the bdy.
