Natinal Gegraphic Explrer Paul Salpek is walking frm Africa t the tip f Suth America. He is fllwing the path ur human ancestrs tk ut f Africa abut 200,000 years ag.
Salpek has named his jurney the Out f Eden Walk. As he walks thrugh different cuntries, landscapes, and cultures, Salpek is dcumenting what he sees and hears. And he isn't walking alne. During each part f his walk, Paul is jined by a lcal guide. Alng the way, he meets peple frm small villages, cities, and cuntry farms. Smetimes, they give him a place t stay fr a night r tw. Often, his hsts share a little bit abut their lives with him.
The Out f Eden Walk is well-named. Besides a few rides n bats r ships, Salpek is walking the entire way. N cars. He desn't even ride bikes, thugh he des use pack animals. An imprtant part f Salpek's missin is t tell the stries f rdinary peple. Walking gives him mre time t lk arund and t talk t the peple he encunters. He has spken t thusands f peple since his walk began. As he puts it, "I am in a seven, eight, nine-year-lng cnversatin with ttal strangers."
Fllwing a stry is nt new fr Paul Salpek. He is a jurnalist. He has written fr The Atlantic, the Chicag Tribune, Natinal Gegraphic, and ther publicatins. His wrks have earned many awards, including tw Pulitzer Prizes.
As a jurnalist, Salpek wuld ften fly int an area t cver a stry and then quickly leave again. But he felt he was missing part f the stry and wanted t dig deeper. The Out f Eden Walk was brn frm this desire. Salpek calls it slw jurnalism. The gal is t deeply explre sme f the majr news stries f ur times by talking t rdinary peple wh are affected.

Cmedian Sarah Silverman recently jined frces with bestselling writers Christpher Glden and Richard Kadrey against tw unlikely ppnents: ChatGPT's creatr OpenAI and Meta Platfrms. The writers filed a infringement（侵犯）case in early July in which they claim their cpyrighted bks were used withut their permissin as part f training dataset fr ChatGPT and similar AI mdels.
Here's a critical pint t remember: AIs like ChatGPT dn't parrt bks wrd fr wrd. They generate new cntent based n patterns learned frm the training data. The specific wrds and sentences frmed aren't direct cpies frm ed bks, blurring（使变得模糊不清）the lines f traditinal infringement. I have a visin there's a slim chance this case will hld up, but the final call is in the hands f the curts.
The crnerstne（基石, 基础）f human-learning is imitatin（模仿）. The nature f intelligence— whether bilgical r artificial rests n the ability t recgnize patterns and apply them in innvative ways. AI, such as ChatGPT, perates similarly. It learns frm its envirnment—in this case, the extensive datasets f text-and imitates patterns it finds. That's hw it can cmpse a strikingly human-like string f text despite having n cnsciusness r creativity.
The current case challenges this understanding, claiming that Al's methd f learning breaks law. Sme publishers prvide a cmpensatin（补偿）strategy. But there are ptential issues with this apprach. First, its being in effect might pse enrmus, even unvercme challenges. The large scale f data that AI mdels like ChatGPT take in fr training thusands f bks, millins f articles, and mre makes it impractical t track dwn every single cpyright hlder and negtiate terms fr use. This culd result in high expenses fr Al develpers, ptentially preventing innvatin and destrying public mdels.
But here's an interesting paradx（悖论）t cnsider: The victry f writers against frmal AI service prviders may nt end the issue. Far frm it. The utcme f this unflding drama culd be mre than a simple curtrm win r lss; It culd fundamentally redefine the bundaries f artificial intelligence and law.
28. What may be the result f the case in the authr's view?
A. Al may get away with it. B. Writers may gain huge benefit.
C. AI's wrks may be banned. D. Meta platfrms may be clsed.
29. What is Paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. The reliance（依赖）f AI n humans. B. The applicatin f AI's imitatin.
C. The rle f AI in human learning. D. The cmmn feature f Al and human brain.
30. What will the cmpensatin strategy bring abut?
A. The ceasing f AI develpment. B. Lack f sustainable quality data.
C. The prtests frm the publishers. D. Financial burdens fr AI develpers.
31. What des the authr intend t d in the last paragraph?
A. T clarify his r her stand. B. T present an example.
C. T make sme cmparisn. D. T add backgrund infrmatin.
D
Researchers have discvered that limiting a certain enzyme（酶）can have a dramatic（极大的, 剧烈的）impact in prtecting against the effects f Alzheimer's disease（阿尔兹海默症）. The finding culd lead t a new class f drugs that fight the disease.
Much f the histrical research int Alzheimer's disease（AD）has fcused n plaques（斑块）that frm in the brain, which recently, thugh, have been fund nt likely t be the direct cause f it. In seeking anther way frward, a grup f British researchers turned t an Australian study which shwed having the gene fr the prductin f an enzyme knwn as PDE4B was identified as a risk factr fr develping Alzheimer's.
With the intentin f investigating hw PDE4B might affect the brain, the UK team genetically mdified（改造）mice with Alzheimer's t reduce PDE4B activity. The results are astnishing.
First, the mice with Alzheimer's and nrmal PDE4B expressin shwed memry lss in the sense f directin, a distinctive characteristic f AD. But thse wh had the genetic mdificatin t have less PDE4B activity shwed n damage at all. The team als bserved that inflammatin（炎症）, anther hallmark f AD, decreased t sme extent in the brains f mice with less PDE4B activity, cmpared t thse with mre f the enzyme.
Because all f these effects were fund in the mice that already had Alzheimer's but had significant imprvement in symptms, the researchers say that further investigatin int hw t limit PDE4B in human patients with the cnditin culd lead t new treatment pathways.
"These results ffer real hpe fr the develpment f new treatments that will benefit patients with Alzheimer's disease in the future," said Neil Dawsn, a c- authr f the study. "The next stage is t test whetherPDE4B- limiting drugs have similar beneficial effects in the AD muse mdel, t test their ptential effectiveness in human Alzheimer's disease."
32. Hw did the British researchers get the inspiratin?
A. By figuring ut the direct cause f AD.
B. By ging ver much histrical research.
C. By referring t a previus Australian study.
D. By breaking dwn PDEAB in the AD muse.
33. What can be learnt abut PDE4B?
A. Its activity prmtes the sense f directin.
B. It might bring abut the develpment f AD.
C. It is prcessed by a certain enzyme in the brain.
D. It will be investigated t reduce mice brain activity.
34. What des the underlined wrd "hallmark" in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Cause. B. Feature. C. Principle. D. Finding.
35. What d the last tw paragraphs mainly talk abut?
A. The future research fcus. B. The existing research backgrund.
C. The prbable research limitatin. D. The practical research applicatin.

Reading bdy language during interviews can prvide valuable insights（理解, 洞察）int a candidate's persnality. 37 Here are sme cmmn interview bdy language signals that yu can learn t read.
Observe extreme behaviur. A candidate's harmless actin desn't mean they wn't fit in well at yur cmpany. But be careful abut extreme behavirs, like a persn cnstantly checking their phne.
38 Yu can read peple's bdy language by bserving changes in their mvements r psture. Imagine, fr example, that a candidate suddenly starts tapping their ft. Maybe they feel the interview is taking t lng. Or perhaps they're facing an uncmfrtable questin.

Candidate experience greatly depends n an interviewer's bdy language. Psitive bdy language can make candidates relax and pen up. Negative bdy language can spark（引发）defensive and reserved reactins. 40
A. Spt the difference.
B. Ask detailed questins.
C. It's nt what yu say, it's hw yu say it.
D. They dn't necessarily act the same way all the time.
E. Hwever, understanding bdy language isn't an exact science.
F. Yu can't always tell what a specific gesture means n its wn.
G. Be aware f mistakes t preserve a psitive candidate experience.

A Little By
A little by selling newspapers fr schl walked up t a huse that peple rarely visited. The huse was very ld and shabby and the wner hardly ever came ut. When he did cme ut, he wuld nt say hell t his neighbrs r passers-by but simply just glare at（盯着看）them.
The by kncked n the dr and waited, sweating frm fear f the ld man. The by's parents tld him t stay away frm the huse, and a lt f ther neighbrhd children were tld the same thing frm their parents. The by was lingering n and hesitating what t d. As he was ready t walk away, the dr slwly pened. "What d yu want? " the ld man said impatiently. The little by was very afraid but he had a quta（份额）t meet fr schl with selling the newspapers. S he gt up the curage and said, "Uh, sir, I am selling these newspapers and uh, I was wndering if yu wuld like t buy ne frm me."
The ld man just stared at the by withut a wrd. The by culd see inside the ld man's huse and saw that he had dg figurines（小雕像）n the fireplace. "D yu cllect dgs?" The little by asked. "Yes, I have many cllectins in my huse. They are my family here and they are all I have." The by then felt srry fr the man, as it seemed that he was a very lnely sul（灵魂）.
"Well, I d have a newspaper here fr cllectrs. It is perfect fr yu. I als have ne abut dgs since yu like dgs s much." The ld man was ready t clse the dr n the by and said, "N, by. I dn't need any newspapers f any kind, nw gdbye."
The little by was sad that he was nt ging t make his quta with the sale. He was als sad fr the ld man being s alne in the huse. The by went hme and then had an idea.
