Grwing up in Kenya, Leseir Mutunkei, tgether with his family, always celebrated significant ccasins by planting trees, which mtivated him t prtect the envirnment. It’s what the 18-year-ld sccer player treasures, especially since Kenya’s nging prblem-defrestatin.
Lesein fllws in the ftsteps f the late Kenyan Nbel Peace Prize winner Wangari Maathai wh funded the Green Belt Mvement in 1977. This initiative has resulted in the planting f ver 51 millin trees t date.
In 2018, Lesein decided t start a mvement f his wn. He started by planting ne tree fr every gal he scred during a ftball match. He called it Trees 4 Gals, and when he scres a gal, he plants 11 trees —ne t represent each player n his team. Thrugh this, he wants t inspire yung peple, specifically his fellw athletes, t fllw in his ftsteps, take nature cnservatin seriusly, and prmise t plant trees every time they scre. As a result, sme f them have adapted this practice fr respective sprts. “Seeing that they’re taking that respnsibility because f the prject I started, I think that is the biggest achievement,” he said.
The initiative has caught the attentin f Arsenal Ftball Club and Kenya’s Ministry f Envirnment, Climate Change and Frestry, which he nw wrks with regularly and gets advice frm.
Like the Green Belt Mvement, Trees 4 Gals, which has planted ver 5,500 trees s far, has made it. While Lesein has received sme recgnitin fr his initiative, he sets his sights n making it a wrldwide phenmenn. “Ftball is a universal game, and climate change is a universal prblem,” he explains. “It has the pwer t unite, educate and inspire my generatin t create a safer and greener future.” This is why he wants t wrk with the wrld’s biggest ftball federatin FIFA.
As fr what thers can d t fight defrestatin r ther envirnmental cncerns, Lesein says its imprtant t just get invlved in sme way, n matter hw small.
24．What made Lesein get interested in envirnmental prtectin?
A．His fellw athletes’ encuragement. B．The demands f the ftball team.
C．The influence f his family. D．Wangari Maathai’s cnsiderable assistance.
25．Why did Lesein fund Trees 4 Gals?
A．T set an example fr thers. B．T shw his achievements.
C．T gain Kenya’s supprt. D．T catch Arsenal Ftball Club’s attentin.
26．What is Lesein’s hpe fr the future f Trees 4 Gals?
A．Prmting ftball’s develpment. B．Getting beynd the Green Belt Mvement.
C．Beating climate change cmpletely. D．Ging glbal with the help f FIFA.
27．What can we learn frm Lesein’s stry?
A．Fame is a great thirst f the yung.
B．Psitive thinking and actin result in success.
C．A yuth is t be regarded with respect.
D．Success means getting persnal desires satisfied.

Fd packaging frm arund the wrld cntains at least 68 “frever chemicals” that can seep int what we eat, a new study finds. And 61 f them are nt even suppsed t be used in such prducts. “It’s nt clear why the latter chemicals, which are nt n lists f thse authrized fr use in fd cntainers, are in such packaging.” says the study’s authr Birgit Geueke.
The study fcused n a class f chemicals called perfluralkyl and plyfluralkyl substances (PFASs), which are smetimes called “frever chemicals” because they dn’t break dwn readily in the envirnment r in the bdy. That’s because their characteristic carbn-flurine bnd is ne f the strngest in nature. Fr decades, these substances have been used in a wide range f cnsumer prducts, frm ckware t pesticides t csmetics, because they are prf against water and grease.
Geueke and her team fund a mismatch between what they detected in actual prducts and a database f PFAS chemicals authrized fr use in fd packaging. Abut 140 PFASs are knwn t be used in fd packaging, but nly seven f the 68 chemicals in the study were n this list. Geueke says it’s unclear hw r why the ther 61 chemicals turned up. David Andrews, a chemist and txiclgist at a nnprfit envirnmental advcacy rganizatin, suggests it’s pssible that unknwn impurities emerged during the manufacturing f the authrized chemicals r that the authrized PFASs degrade ver time. This class f chemicals includes many lng-chain mlecules, and they can break int shrter chains that are simply different types f PFASs.
PFASs have been fund in human bld and breast milk, drinking water, sil and ther startling places arund the wrld. Expsure t sme f the mst studied PFASs has been assciated with cancer, reprductive prblems and lessened respnses t vaccines. “There’s an incredible bdy f scientific evidence linking PFAS chemicals t health harm,” says Andrews. Many cuntries are evaluating restrictins f PFASs in fd packaging.
Chemical industry representatives have advcated fr dealing with PFASs as individual chemicals. Befre publishing the new study, Scientific American reached ut t the American Chemistry Cuncil (ACC), a chemistry industry trade assciatin, abut it, but the rganizatin did nt reply. On its dedicated PFAS webpage, ACC ntes that “all PFASs are nt the same. Each individual chemical has its wn unique prperties and uses.”
Andrews and Geueke bth say the presence f unknwn PFASs in fd packaging is gd reasn t regulate these chemicals as a single class—a psitin shared with many ther scientific experts and envirnmental prtectin grups. There are mre than 12,000 knwn PFASs, and scientists dn’t knw much abut mst f them. “Only sme PFASs have ever been tested fr txicity,” Geueke says, and “there are prbably ther ways t prduce fd packaging.”
28．What can we learn abut PFASs frm the passage?
A．They are able t resist water and grease. B．They last lng and never break dwn.
C．They cntain the lngest chemical bnd. D．They are mainly used fr fd packaging.
29．What is the main idea f paragraph 3?
A．The ptential usage f the unknwn impurities.
B．The authrizatin f fd packaging chemicals.
C．The likely transfrming prcess frm PFASs int new chemicals.
D．The pssible explanatin fr the presence f unauthrized PFASs.
30．What can we learn frm paragraph 5?
A．Chemical industry has wrked ut ways t use PFASs safely in different prducts.
B．ACC agrees with chemical industry representatives regarding PFASs.
C．Scientific American has gt the authritative pwer in dealing with PFASs.
D．ACC supprts testing mre unknwn PFASs fr txicitys.
31．Which wuld Geueke prbably agree with?
A．Laws shuld be made t ban the use f PFASs.
B．Fd packaging alternatives shuld be explred.
C．The chemicals in fd packaging shuld be listed.
D．Scientists shuld cntinue discvering new PFASs.

Imagine this: yur cmputer culd sense yur emtins as yu wrked —feeling yur jy at cmpleting a task, yur bredm during repetitive data entry, r yur frustratin when an errr message keeps emerging. This might sund like science fictin, but researchers are bringing this visin clser t reality by develping advanced cmputatinal mdels that can predict human emtins during cmputer interactins.
At the frefrnt f this effrt is a team f Finnish scientists wh have created a mdel. The mdel essentially puts itself in the user’s shes, simulating （模拟） the series f actins, utcmes, and cgnitive appraisals （认知评估） that ultimately give rise t emtins like happiness, bredm, r frustratin.
T test their mdel, the researchers designed a series f interactive cmputer tasks meant t cause specific emtins. In the “happiness” task, users answered a series f questins and received psitive feedback fr crrect respnses. The “bredm” task invlved a series f repetitive questins. In the “frustratin” task, the system was intentinally prgrammed t display errr messages and ultimately fail, regardless f the user’s answers.
As study participants wrked thrugh these tasks, the emtinal reactins predicted by the mdel clsely matched the emtins reprted by the users themselves. The mdel was even able t discver small changes, such as a steady increase in frustratin ver the curse f the errr-ridden task.
The researchers believe their emtin-predicting mdel culd pave the way fr a new generatin f emtinally intelligent cmputers that can tailr their behavir t the user’s psychlgical state. An effective system might ffer a stressed user cmfrting wrds f encuragement, liven up a bring task with humr, r prvide emtinal assistance when frustratin munts. “By creating interactins that are mre emtinally attuned, designers culd bst user engagement, prductivity, and verall well-being,” they add.
Hwever, the mdel is still in prgress and needs t be extended t recgnize a wider range f emtins acrss mre cmplex, real-wrld cmputer interactins. The researchers als emphasize the imprtance f gathering mre diverse training data t ensure the mdel can accurately predict emtins fr users f all backgrunds.
32．Hw des the authr intrduce the tpic f the text?
A．By making a cmparisn. B．By creating an imaginary scene.
C．By telling a real life stry. D．By sharing a ppular bk.
33．What were cmputer users asked t d in the study?
A．Cmfrt each ther. B．Reprt their feelings.
C．Get rid f bredm. D．Stay discnnected nline.
34．What is paragraph 5 mainly abut?
A．Great imprvements n the mdel. B．Characteristics f future cmputer users.
C．Researchers’ expectatin f their mdel. D．Cmputer users’ respnses t the mdel.
35．What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A．Smart Cmputers May Replace Humans
B．Interactins with Cmputers Are Enjyable
C．Cmputers Might Understand Our Emtins
D．An Emtin-predicting Mdel Meets Challenges

Picture this: yu’re baking ckies. As yu lift the pan ut f the ven, yur bare arm accidentally tuches it. Ouch! Why did yu feel pain? And hw is yur brain invlved in sensing pain? We may nt like pain, but ur bdies need it as a warning system. 36
There are special receptr cells in ur skin and bdies that are sensitive t certain stimuli （刺激）. These cells are called “nciceptrs”. When a nciceptr gets expsed t a painful stimulus, it sends a message int the brain. The brain prcesses that infrmatin, and then pain is felt. 37 Think abut a time when yu’ve stubbed yur te. There desn’t seem t be a delay between hitting yur te and then feeling pain: it feels like it happens at the same time.
38 If we have an injury, pain alerts us t rest and let the injury heal. If we stand t clse t a fire, pain tells us t mve away. Nt being able t feel pain can be dangerus. Sme peple can feel sensatins like tuch, but they cannt feel pain. Withut feeling pain, they cannt listen t their bdies when they need t rest r heal.
On the ther hand, the brain smetimes prcesses pain where there isn’t any actual injury t the bdy. Here’s a famus stry: a man stepped n a nail. It went thrugh the bttm f his she, and he felt like he was in hrrible pain. When the dctrs remved his she, they fund that the nail was between his tes! It hadn’t gne int his ft at all. 39 S his brain perceived pain t match the experience.
Withut pain, we might nt knw when we need t rest. We might nt knw if we were in danger f hurting urselves. 40 Hwever, it is an imprtant part f human life and survival!
A．Pain is nt fun t feel.
B．Pain is a respnse t a stimulus.
C．Our brains use sensry infrmatin t interpret the pain that we feel.
D．Even thugh pain is an unpleasant feeling, it is necessary fr human survival.
E．All f this signal sending and prcessing happens faster than we can perceive.
F．It is an imprtant functin f ur brain, telling ur bdies when smething is wrng.
G．Hwever, the visual infrmatin tricked his brain int thinking that there was cause fr alarm.

Everyne in business has been tld that success is all abut attracting and retaining （留住） custmers. It sunds simple and achievable. But, 41 , wrds f wisdm are sn frgtten. Once cmpanies have attracted custmers, they ften 42 the secnd half f the stry. In the excitement f beating ff the cmpetitin, negtiating prices, securing rders, and delivering the prduct, managers tend t becme carried away. They frget what they regard as the bring side f business— 43 that the custmer remains a custmer.
44 t cncentrate n retaining as well as attracting custmers csts business huge amunts f mney annually. It has been estimated that the average cmpany lses between 10 and 30 per cent f its custmers every year. In cnstantly changing 45 , this is nt surprising. What is surprising is the fact that few cmpanies have any idea hw many custmers they have lst.
Only nw are rganizatins beginning t wake up t thse lst pprtunities and calculate the 46 implicatins. Cutting dwn the number f custmers a cmpany lses can make a big 47 in its perfrmance. Research in the US fund that a five per cent decrease in the number f defecting （流失的） custmers led t 48 increases f between 25 and 85 per cent.
In the US, Dmin’s Pizza estimates that a regular custmer is wrth mre than $5,000 ver ten years. A custmer wh receives a pr-quality prduct r service n their first visit and 49 never returns, is lsing the cmpany thusands f dllars in 50 prfits (mre if yu cnsider hw many peple, they are likely t tell abut their bad experience).
The lgic behind cultivating custmer 51 is impssible t deny. “In practice mst cmpanies’ marketing effrt is fcused n getting custmers, with little attentin paid t 52 them”, says Adrian Payne f Crnfield University’ Schl f Management. “Research suggests that there is a clse relatinship between retaining custmers and making prfits. 53 custmers tend t buy mre, are predictable and usually cst less t service than new custmers. Furthermre, they tend t be less price 54 , and may prvide free wrd-f-muth advertising. Retaining custmers als makes it 55 fr cmpetitrs t enter a market r increase their share f a market.

As a single mther, I’ve never dubted my daughter Jane’s dream t be a singer n the stage. At an early age, she was crazy abut singing. Whenever she had a chance, she wuld sing t her heart’s cntent. Her sweet and charming vice tended t get peple arund attracted t her sngs.
Living in a small city, I tk several dd jbs, determined t d everything in my pwer t supprt her. Sn after Jane attended schl, her music teacher Mary nticed her talent by chance and vlunteered t give her sme guidance n hw t sing. Jane practiced s hard that befre lng she made great prgress in singing.
Unfrtunately, ne nn a year later, Jane was crssing the street when a careless driver kncked her dwn. She was rushed t hspital. When I hurried there, the dctr tld me that my daughter wuld prbably nt stand n her wn feet. I frze with shck, feeling as if I had been thrwn int a dark wrld. Weak and dizzy, I was abut t fall t the grund when smene tk hld f me.
It was Mary, wh gt the news and raced here. She cmfrted me, saying firmly, “Grace, Jane needs yu. Yu must stay calm and strng.” I ndded. Having calmed dwn, I entered the war d with Mary.
That night, Jane recvered her cnsciusness （知觉） and pened her eyes. Hlding her hand, I said, “My dear, everything wuld be fine.” Mary cmfrted her gently, “I knw yu are a strng girl, Jane. Dn’t wrry. We’ll be standing by yu.” I was heartbrken t see tears streaming dwn Jane’s cheeks.
After tw mnths, we returned hme frm hspital. Her teachers and friends frequently visited her. Jane eventually accepted the fact that she wuld have t get arund in a wheelchair. Never did she refer t the subject f singing again. I knew she was a nice and understanding girl, wh was afraid that talking abut her riginal dream wuld upset the tw f us.
One day, hwever, Mary came with gd news. ________________________________________________

Yellwstne Pster Exhibitin t Be n View at UW’s Ce Library
A first-f-its-kind exhibitin that fcuses n the histry f Yellwstne Natinal Park psters will be n display at the University f Wyming’s Ce Library frm Tuesday, February 1.
“Wnderland Illustrated” will present psters and pster-style illustratins f the park spanning mre than a century frm the 1870s thrugh 2022. The exhibitin will be lcated n Level 3 f Ce Library. It will be n view thrugh Friday, May 27.
The exhibitin takes place at the same time as this year’s 150th anniversary f the creatin f Yellwstne Natinal Park. The psters in the exhibitin serve the purpse f bth advertising and art.
“We’re thrilled t be wrking with Yellwstne cllectrs Jack and Susan Davis, and Larry and Thea Lancaster t bring this exhibitin t the University f Wyming as part f year-lng celebratins recgnizing Yellwstne’s 150th anniversary,” says Tamsen Hert, head f UW Libraries’ Emmett D. Chisum Special Cllectins. “This exhibitin invlves the histry f printing, art, phtgraphy and advertising ver 16 decades. The images reprduced are fund n travel brchures, pstcards and maps—many f which are held in ur cllectins.”
One pster frm the exhibitin—Henry Wellge’s “Yellwstne Natinal Park” frm 1904—was recently purchased with dnated funds and is nw part f UW Libraries’ Emmett D. Chisum Special Cllectins. Wellge, a prductive artist f bird’s-eye views, designed the piece fr the Nrthern Pacific Railrad, which used it t advertise the park. This is a unique piece, as psters such as this ne were printed n sft paper and very few have survived.

Grwing up in Kenya, Leseir Mutunkei, tgether with his family, always celebrated significant ccasins by planting trees, which mtivated him t prtect the envirnment. It’s what the 18-year-ld sccer player treasures, especially since Kenya’s nging prblem-defrestatin.
Lesein fllws in the ftsteps f the late Kenyan Nbel Peace Prize winner Wangari Maathai wh funded the Green Belt Mvement in 1977. This initiative has resulted in the planting f ver 51 millin trees t date.
In 2018, Lesein decided t start a mvement f his wn. He started by planting ne tree fr every gal he scred during a ftball match. He called it Trees 4 Gals, and when he scres a gal, he plants 11 trees —ne t represent each player n his team. Thrugh this, he wants t inspire yung peple, specifically his fellw athletes, t fllw in his ftsteps, take nature cnservatin seriusly, and prmise t plant trees every time they scre. As a result, sme f them have adapted this practice fr respective sprts. “Seeing that they’re taking that respnsibility because f the prject I started, I think that is the biggest achievement,” he said.
The initiative has caught the attentin f Arsenal Ftball Club and Kenya’s Ministry f Envirnment, Climate Change and Frestry, which he nw wrks with regularly and gets advice frm.
Like the Green Belt Mvement, Trees 4 Gals, which has planted ver 5,500 trees s far, has made it. While Lesein has received sme recgnitin fr his initiative, he sets his sights n making it a wrldwide phenmenn. “Ftball is a universal game, and climate change is a universal prblem,” he explains. “It has the pwer t unite, educate and inspire my generatin t create a safer and greener future.” This is why he wants t wrk with the wrld’s biggest ftball federatin FIFA.
As fr what thers can d t fight defrestatin r ther envirnmental cncerns, Lesein says its imprtant t just get invlved in sme way, n matter hw small.
24．What made Lesein get interested in envirnmental prtectin?
A．His fellw athletes’ encuragement. B．The demands f the ftball team.
C．The influence f his family. D．Wangari Maathai’s cnsiderable assistance.
25．Why did Lesein fund Trees 4 Gals?
A．T set an example fr thers. B．T shw his achievements.
C．T gain Kenya’s supprt. D．T catch Arsenal Ftball Club’s attentin.
26．What is Lesein’s hpe fr the future f Trees 4 Gals?
A．Prmting ftball’s develpment. B．Getting beynd the Green Belt Mvement.
C．Beating climate change cmpletely. D．Ging glbal with the help f FIFA.
27．What can we learn frm Lesein’s stry?
A．Fame is a great thirst f the yung.
B．Psitive thinking and actin result in success.
C．A yuth is t be regarded with respect.
D．Success means getting persnal desires satisfied.

Fd packaging frm arund the wrld cntains at least 68 “frever chemicals” that can seep int what we eat, a new study finds. And 61 f them are nt even suppsed t be used in such prducts. “It’s nt clear why the latter chemicals, which are nt n lists f thse authrized fr use in fd cntainers, are in such packaging.” says the study’s authr Birgit Geueke.
The study fcused n a class f chemicals called perfluralkyl and plyfluralkyl substances (PFASs), which are smetimes called “frever chemicals” because they dn’t break dwn readily in the envirnment r in the bdy. That’s because their characteristic carbn-flurine bnd is ne f the strngest in nature. Fr decades, these substances have been used in a wide range f cnsumer prducts, frm ckware t pesticides t csmetics, because they are prf against water and grease.
Geueke and her team fund a mismatch between what they detected in actual prducts and a database f PFAS chemicals authrized fr use in fd packaging. Abut 140 PFASs are knwn t be used in fd packaging, but nly seven f the 68 chemicals in the study were n this list. Geueke says it’s unclear hw r why the ther 61 chemicals turned up. David Andrews, a chemist and txiclgist at a nnprfit envirnmental advcacy rganizatin, suggests it’s pssible that unknwn impurities emerged during the manufacturing f the authrized chemicals r that the authrized PFASs degrade ver time. This class f chemicals includes many lng-chain mlecules, and they can break int shrter chains that are simply different types f PFASs.
PFASs have been fund in human bld and breast milk, drinking water, sil and ther startling places arund the wrld. Expsure t sme f the mst studied PFASs has been assciated with cancer, reprductive prblems and lessened respnses t vaccines. “There’s an incredible bdy f scientific evidence linking PFAS chemicals t health harm,” says Andrews. Many cuntries are evaluating restrictins f PFASs in fd packaging.
Chemical industry representatives have advcated fr dealing with PFASs as individual chemicals. Befre publishing the new study, Scientific American reached ut t the American Chemistry Cuncil (ACC), a chemistry industry trade assciatin, abut it, but the rganizatin did nt reply. On its dedicated PFAS webpage, ACC ntes that “all PFASs are nt the same. Each individual chemical has its wn unique prperties and uses.”
Andrews and Geueke bth say the presence f unknwn PFASs in fd packaging is gd reasn t regulate these chemicals as a single class—a psitin shared with many ther scientific experts and envirnmental prtectin grups. There are mre than 12,000 knwn PFASs, and scientists dn’t knw much abut mst f them. “Only sme PFASs have ever been tested fr txicity,” Geueke says, and “there are prbably ther ways t prduce fd packaging.”
28．What can we learn abut PFASs frm the passage?
A．They are able t resist water and grease. B．They last lng and never break dwn.
C．They cntain the lngest chemical bnd. D．They are mainly used fr fd packaging.
29．What is the main idea f paragraph 3?
A．The ptential usage f the unknwn impurities.
B．The authrizatin f fd packaging chemicals.
C．The likely transfrming prcess frm PFASs int new chemicals.
D．The pssible explanatin fr the presence f unauthrized PFASs.
30．What can we learn frm paragraph 5?
A．Chemical industry has wrked ut ways t use PFASs safely in different prducts.
B．ACC agrees with chemical industry representatives regarding PFASs.
C．Scientific American has gt the authritative pwer in dealing with PFASs.
D．ACC supprts testing mre unknwn PFASs fr txicitys.
31．Which wuld Geueke prbably agree with?
A．Laws shuld be made t ban the use f PFASs.
B．Fd packaging alternatives shuld be explred.
C．The chemicals in fd packaging shuld be listed.
D．Scientists shuld cntinue discvering new PFASs.

Imagine this: yur cmputer culd sense yur emtins as yu wrked —feeling yur jy at cmpleting a task, yur bredm during repetitive data entry, r yur frustratin when an errr message keeps emerging. This might sund like science fictin, but researchers are bringing this visin clser t reality by develping advanced cmputatinal mdels that can predict human emtins during cmputer interactins.
At the frefrnt f this effrt is a team f Finnish scientists wh have created a mdel. The mdel essentially puts itself in the user’s shes, simulating （模拟） the series f actins, utcmes, and cgnitive appraisals （认知评估） that ultimately give rise t emtins like happiness, bredm, r frustratin.
T test their mdel, the researchers designed a series f interactive cmputer tasks meant t cause specific emtins. In the “happiness” task, users answered a series f questins and received psitive feedback fr crrect respnses. The “bredm” task invlved a series f repetitive questins. In the “frustratin” task, the system was intentinally prgrammed t display errr messages and ultimately fail, regardless f the user’s answers.
As study participants wrked thrugh these tasks, the emtinal reactins predicted by the mdel clsely matched the emtins reprted by the users themselves. The mdel was even able t discver small changes, such as a steady increase in frustratin ver the curse f the errr-ridden task.
The researchers believe their emtin-predicting mdel culd pave the way fr a new generatin f emtinally intelligent cmputers that can tailr their behavir t the user’s psychlgical state. An effective system might ffer a stressed user cmfrting wrds f encuragement, liven up a bring task with humr, r prvide emtinal assistance when frustratin munts. “By creating interactins that are mre emtinally attuned, designers culd bst user engagement, prductivity, and verall well-being,” they add.
Hwever, the mdel is still in prgress and needs t be extended t recgnize a wider range f emtins acrss mre cmplex, real-wrld cmputer interactins. The researchers als emphasize the imprtance f gathering mre diverse training data t ensure the mdel can accurately predict emtins fr users f all backgrunds.
32．Hw des the authr intrduce the tpic f the text?
A．By making a cmparisn. B．By creating an imaginary scene.
C．By telling a real life stry. D．By sharing a ppular bk.
33．What were cmputer users asked t d in the study?
A．Cmfrt each ther. B．Reprt their feelings.
C．Get rid f bredm. D．Stay discnnected nline.
34．What is paragraph 5 mainly abut?
A．Great imprvements n the mdel. B．Characteristics f future cmputer users.
C．Researchers’ expectatin f their mdel. D．Cmputer users’ respnses t the mdel.
35．What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A．Smart Cmputers May Replace Humans
B．Interactins with Cmputers Are Enjyable
C．Cmputers Might Understand Our Emtins
D．An Emtin-predicting Mdel Meets Challenges

Picture this: yu’re baking ckies. As yu lift the pan ut f the ven, yur bare arm accidentally tuches it. Ouch! Why did yu feel pain? And hw is yur brain invlved in sensing pain? We may nt like pain, but ur bdies need it as a warning system. 36
There are special receptr cells in ur skin and bdies that are sensitive t certain stimuli （刺激）. These cells are called “nciceptrs”. When a nciceptr gets expsed t a painful stimulus, it sends a message int the brain. The brain prcesses that infrmatin, and then pain is felt. 37 Think abut a time when yu’ve stubbed yur te. There desn’t seem t be a delay between hitting yur te and then feeling pain: it feels like it happens at the same time.
38 If we have an injury, pain alerts us t rest and let the injury heal. If we stand t clse t a fire, pain tells us t mve away. Nt being able t feel pain can be dangerus. Sme peple can feel sensatins like tuch, but they cannt feel pain. Withut feeling pain, they cannt listen t their bdies when they need t rest r heal.
On the ther hand, the brain smetimes prcesses pain where there isn’t any actual injury t the bdy. Here’s a famus stry: a man stepped n a nail. It went thrugh the bttm f his she, and he felt like he was in hrrible pain. When the dctrs remved his she, they fund that the nail was between his tes! It hadn’t gne int his ft at all. 39 S his brain perceived pain t match the experience.
Withut pain, we might nt knw when we need t rest. We might nt knw if we were in danger f hurting urselves. 40 Hwever, it is an imprtant part f human life and survival!
A．Pain is nt fun t feel.
B．Pain is a respnse t a stimulus.
C．Our brains use sensry infrmatin t interpret the pain that we feel.
D．Even thugh pain is an unpleasant feeling, it is necessary fr human survival.
E．All f this signal sending and prcessing happens faster than we can perceive.
F．It is an imprtant functin f ur brain, telling ur bdies when smething is wrng.
G．Hwever, the visual infrmatin tricked his brain int thinking that there was cause fr alarm.

Everyne in business has been tld that success is all abut attracting and retaining （留住） custmers. It sunds simple and achievable. But, 41 , wrds f wisdm are sn frgtten. Once cmpanies have attracted custmers, they ften 42 the secnd half f the stry. In the excitement f beating ff the cmpetitin, negtiating prices, securing rders, and delivering the prduct, managers tend t becme carried away. They frget what they regard as the bring side f business— 43 that the custmer remains a custmer.
44 t cncentrate n retaining as well as attracting custmers csts business huge amunts f mney annually. It has been estimated that the average cmpany lses between 10 and 30 per cent f its custmers every year. In cnstantly changing 45 , this is nt surprising. What is surprising is the fact that few cmpanies have any idea hw many custmers they have lst.
Only nw are rganizatins beginning t wake up t thse lst pprtunities and calculate the 46 implicatins. Cutting dwn the number f custmers a cmpany lses can make a big 47 in its perfrmance. Research in the US fund that a five per cent decrease in the number f defecting （流失的） custmers led t 48 increases f between 25 and 85 per cent.
In the US, Dmin’s Pizza estimates that a regular custmer is wrth mre than $5,000 ver ten years. A custmer wh receives a pr-quality prduct r service n their first visit and 49 never returns, is lsing the cmpany thusands f dllars in 50 prfits (mre if yu cnsider hw many peple, they are likely t tell abut their bad experience).
The lgic behind cultivating custmer 51 is impssible t deny. “In practice mst cmpanies’ marketing effrt is fcused n getting custmers, with little attentin paid t 52 them”, says Adrian Payne f Crnfield University’ Schl f Management. “Research suggests that there is a clse relatinship between retaining custmers and making prfits. 53 custmers tend t buy mre, are predictable and usually cst less t service than new custmers. Furthermre, they tend t be less price 54 , and may prvide free wrd-f-muth advertising. Retaining custmers als makes it 55 fr cmpetitrs t enter a market r increase their share f a market.

As a single mther, I’ve never dubted my daughter Jane’s dream t be a singer n the stage. At an early age, she was crazy abut singing. Whenever she had a chance, she wuld sing t her heart’s cntent. Her sweet and charming vice tended t get peple arund attracted t her sngs.
Living in a small city, I tk several dd jbs, determined t d everything in my pwer t supprt her. Sn after Jane attended schl, her music teacher Mary nticed her talent by chance and vlunteered t give her sme guidance n hw t sing. Jane practiced s hard that befre lng she made great prgress in singing.
Unfrtunately, ne nn a year later, Jane was crssing the street when a careless driver kncked her dwn. She was rushed t hspital. When I hurried there, the dctr tld me that my daughter wuld prbably nt stand n her wn feet. I frze with shck, feeling as if I had been thrwn int a dark wrld. Weak and dizzy, I was abut t fall t the grund when smene tk hld f me.
It was Mary, wh gt the news and raced here. She cmfrted me, saying firmly, “Grace, Jane needs yu. Yu must stay calm and strng.” I ndded. Having calmed dwn, I entered the war d with Mary.
That night, Jane recvered her cnsciusness （知觉） and pened her eyes. Hlding her hand, I said, “My dear, everything wuld be fine.” Mary cmfrted her gently, “I knw yu are a strng girl, Jane. Dn’t wrry. We’ll be standing by yu.” I was heartbrken t see tears streaming dwn Jane’s cheeks.
After tw mnths, we returned hme frm hspital. Her teachers and friends frequently visited her. Jane eventually accepted the fact that she wuld have t get arund in a wheelchair. Never did she refer t the subject f singing again. I knew she was a nice and understanding girl, wh was afraid that talking abut her riginal dream wuld upset the tw f us.
One day, hwever, Mary came with gd news. ________________________________________________
