Nrwegian playwright and authr Jn Fsse has just been awarded the 2023 Nbel Prize in Literature fr his “innvative plays and prse which give vice t the unsayable”.
The Swedish Academy credits Fsse as “ne f the mst widely perfrmed playwrights in the wrld”, althugh the 64-year-ld riginally made his name as a nvelist, beginning with Red, Black in 1983. He has since written many wrks f prse and petry. “His literary wrks, spanning a variety f genres (体裁) , cmprises abut 40 plays and a wealth f nvels, petry cllectins, essays, children’s bks and translatins, “ said Anders Olssn, chairman f the Nbel Cmmittee fr Literature.
Jn Fsse draws inspiratin frm his rural living envirnment and persnal struggles, which have deeply influenced his distinctive writing style. Grwing up in a small castal village, Fsse was immersed in the beauty f nature and the vastness f the sea, which filled him with a sense f slitude and intrspectin (内省) that is reflected in his wrks. Fsse’s writing discussed themes f lneliness, lnging, and the search fr meaning in life. Additinally, his battles with depressin have enabled him t explre the depths f human emtins and existential despair.
“He tuches yu s deeply when yu read his wrks,” said Anders Olssn. “What is special abut him is the clseness in his writing. It tuches yur deepest feelings —anxieties, insecurities, questins f life and death —which are things that every human being actually faces frm the very beginning. In that sense I think he reaches very far and there is a srt f a universal impact f everything that he writes —it has appeal t this basic humanity.”
Fsse is the first-ever laureate writing in Nynrsk, ne f the tw fficial languages f Nrwegian, but nly used by just 10% f the ppulatin. As the Guardian writes, “Many Nynrsk speakers see Fsse ‘as a kind f natinal her ‘fr his champining f the language.” Fsse’s recgnitin n a glbal stage prmtes the visibility and imprtance f Nynrsk as a written standard. It will attract mre attentin t Nynrsk literature, inspire and encurage Nynrsk speakers t cntinue preserving and prmting their linguistic heritage.
24. What d we knw abut Jn Fsse frm paragraph 2?
A. His mst ppular wrk is the play Red, Black.
B. He accmplished varius genres f literature wrks.
C. Many famus plays are the inspiratin fr his writing.
D. His language skills earned him the Nbel Prize in Literature.

A. They explre the meaning f life.
B. They tuch human’s deepest emtins.
C. They shw the bnd between humans and nature.
D. They appeal t readers t fcus n persnal feelings.
27. What cntributin f Jn Hsse is mentined in the last paragraph?

Spiders are master builders, expertly turning silk int cmplex 3D webs that serve as their hme and hunting grund. T gain a deeper understanding f their wrld, scientists have translated the structure f a spider’s web int music, which culd have applicatins ranging frm better 3D printers t crss-species cmmunicatin.
“The spider lives in an envirnment f vibrating strings, “says Markus Buehler, the prject’s principal investigatr. “They dn’t see very well, s they perceive their surrundings by detecting vibratins, which have different frequencies.” Such vibratins ccur, fr example, when the spider stretches a strand f silk during cnstructin r when the wind r a trapped fly mves the web.
The researchers scanned a natural spider web t capture 2D crss-sectins and recnstructed its 3Dnetwrk using a mathematical mdel. They assigned different frequencies f sund t strands f the web, creating musical “ntes” that they cmbined in patterns based n the web’s 3D structure t generate music. Then they made a harp-like (像竖琴的) virtual instrument and played the spider web music in several live perfrmances arund the wrld, creating an inspiring harmny f art and science.
T gain insights int hw spiders build webs, the researchers als scanned a web during cnstructin. transfrming each stage int music with different sunds. “The spider’s way f ‘printing’ the web is remarkable because n supprt material is used, as is ften needed in current 3D printing methds,” Buebler says. This knwledge culd help develp new 3D printers that wrk like spiders, enabling them t cnstruct cmplex structures withut using additinal materials fr supprt.
The team is als interested in learning hw t cmmunicate with spiders in their wn language. They recrded web vibratins prduced when spiders perfrmed different activities. such as building a web. cmmunicating with ther spiders r sending signals t admirers. “Nw we’re trying t generate signals t basically speak the language f the spider, “Buehler says. “If we expse them t certain patterns f vibratins, can we affect what they d r can we begin t cmmunicate with them? Thse are really thrilling ideas, and I believe they culd be achieved in the near future.”
32. What d we knw abut spiders?
A. They have gd eyesight. B. They adapt t surrundings quickly.
C. They spin a web similar t a musical structure. D. They sense the envirnment thrugh vibratins.
33. What is paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. Steps t create spider web music.
B. Ways t recreate a web’s 3D netwrk.
C. Challenges f cmbining music with science.
D. The ptential applicatins f3D printing methds.
34. What des “This knwledge” in paragraph 4 refer t?
A. 3D printers can cnstruct cmplex structures.
B. Spiders’ vibratin patterns vary with activities.
C. Spiders build web s withut using additinal materials.
D. The web-building prcess can be translated int music.
35. Which wrd can best describe Buchler’s attitude twards cmmunicating with spiders?

The ad assured me that the prduct wuld wrk well. Fr three weeks I went t the mailbx every day precisely at the time the mail was delivered. I knew that if smene else in my family gt the mail, I wuld never hear the end f it. There was n way that they wuld let me pen the bx in private.
Three weeks later, my package finally came. I went t my rm with it, sat n the edge f my bed, and pened it. I was sure that I was lking at a miracle. When I gt up the next mrning, I applied the cream all ver my bdy. Then I tk my he and went with my brther and cusins t he the field, where I gt rid f sme tiger lilies, seemingly ugly with black and small spts.
The sun was s strng that even my faces started t burn. By the end f the day, when I came back t the huse, my family, knwing nthing abut the freckle-remver cream, began t say things like, “I’ve never seen yu with that many freckles befre. “When I saw myself in the mirrr, I disslved int tears and hid in the bathrm.

My mther called me t dinner table, but I ignred her. When she came t the bathrm dr and demanded that I cme ut and have a meal, I burst ut f the dr, tears streaming dwn my cheeks. Befre she stpped me, I strmed int my rm and slammed the dr shut behind me. Lking int the mirrr, I saw a girl with mre and darker freckles n the face. Only then did I realize that the cream had a reverse effect when wearing it in the sun. I threw myself dwn n the bed and sbbed.
After what seemed a century, I heard a gentle knck n my bedrm’s dr. Hesitating fr a mment, with puffy (肿胀的) eyes and still wet cheeks, I pened the dr. At the dr std my mther and Janette with a big bunch f tiger lilies, which were cvered with black spts but amazingly beautiful. I stared at them in stunned surprise, nt knwing what t say. My mther held me in her warm embrace. “There are all kinds f flwers, and they are all unique in beauty and fragrance,” said she. Hearing this and smelling the enchanting dr (迷人的气味) f the tiger lilies, the freckles n my face seemed t have magically faded.

Knwing my situatin, she cmfrted me, “It is nrmal that teen girls have mre freckles n their faces than usual, S d I at yur time, hney!” Dwn in spirit, I turned a deaf ear t what my mm said, dashing twards my bedrm and thrwing myself int the bed.
After what seemed a century, I heard a gentle knck n my bedrm’s dr. Hesitating fr a mment, with tearful eyes and still wet cheeks, I shuffled acrss the rm t pen the dr. At the dr std beautiful Elisabeth and mm with a bunch f tiger lilies in her hand. My lips parted with nthing uttered. Mm lcked me int her embrace, gently saying “every flwer is a unique sul blssming in nature and s are yu. “ “And hw culd yu he the field s amazingly better than any f us”, Elisabeth jkingly added. Cracking a radiant smile still with watery eyes, I realized fr the first time that there existed sme starry pints in me, just like thse tiger lilies, thse dtted with ugly “freckles” wuld still smell fragrant.

Hi, bys and girls. Welcme t this feature exhibitin f ur science museum. As yu knw, the brain is ne f the mst astnishing parts f the human bdy. But here’s s much the average persn desn’t knw abut it.
Firstly, the brain itself can’t feel pain. When a persn has a headache, it’s ften thught f as pain cming frm the brain, but this is actually nt the case. The muscles and skin surrunding the brain can feel pain. Secndly, the brain is greedy. It might accunt fr nly abut 3 percent f yur bdy weight, but it receives abut 30 percent f the bld being pumped by yur heart. And this is even mre true fr yung children. In rder fr a kid’s brain t stay running, it requires significant amunts f energy. Almst half f a child’s energy ges t fuel their brain. Finally, the brain’s ability t change itself thrughut a persn’s lifetime is a truly remarkable thing. Fr example, the part f a blind’s brain can rewire itself t prcess sund infrmatin instead f visual infrmatin, which is nrmally wired t wrk with eyes. That means thse wh are brn blind can “see” thrugh ears. Pretty cl, right?
