Every four years, the Winter Olympics surprise us with many new incredible athletes. Here’s a look at the biggest stars from the Beijing Games.

Eileen Gu, China, freestyle skiing

Gu, 18, was undoubtedly one of the biggest stars throughout the Olympics. One of just two athletes to compete in all three freestyle skiing events, Gu brought home a gold in big air and halfpipe and a silver in slopestyle. That made her the first freeski athlete to win three medals in a single Games. She also became the youngest gold medalist in freestyle skiing and was the first woman to land a left-turn 1620.

Nils van der Poel, Sweden, speed skating

The 25-year-old Swede set two Olympic records and one world record. Van der Poel won the men’s 5, 000m and 10, 000m speed skating events, and then subsequently （随后）published a 62-page guide on how to win the events. Van der Poel nearly quit speed skating after a disappointing 2018 Olympics. He joined the Swedish army for a basic ranger course before returning to the ice in 2019. Now, he's a two-time Olympic gold medalist.

Chloe Kim, USA, snowboarding

The 21-year-old Californian won her second straight Olympic gold in the women's halfpipe, becoming the first woman to win the event in back-to-back Games.

“I worked so hard for four years to get back here and do this again, ” Kim said after the event.

The American star is now a two-time gold medalist, and at her age, she could continue for years to come if she wants to.

Nathan Chen, USA, figure skating

Chen helped the US win bronze in the team event in 2018 before an event better run in Beijing. Team USA claimed silver in the team event, and the 22-yearold Chen won gold in the men’s singles competition. That gold medal came after winning singles gold in three straight World Championships（2018, 2019, 2021）.

Are you pessimistic by nature? Well, it’s not good for your brain. A new study has found that repeated negative thinking in later life is linked to cognitive(认知) decline and greater deposits(沉积) of two harmful proteins responsible for Alzheimer’s disease(阿尔茨海默病).

Negative thinking behaviors, such as reflection about the past and worry about the future, were measured in more than 350 people over the age of 55 over a two-year period. About a third of the participants also had a brain scan to measure deposits of proteins, which cause Alzheimer’s disease. The scans showed that people who spent more time thinking negatively had more harmful proteins, worse memory and greater cognitive decline than people who were not pessimists.

The study also tested for levels of anxiety and depression and found greater cognitive decline in depressed and anxious people, which agrees with previous research. But proteins did not increase in people who were already depressed and anxious, leading researchers to suspect that repeated negative thinking might be the main reason why depression and anxiety lead to Alzheimer’s disease.

“This is the first study showing a biological relationship between repeated negative thinking and Alzheimer’s disease, and gives physicians a more precise way to assess risk and offer treatment,” said neurologist Dr. Richard Isaacson. “This study will change the way I care for my patients at risk.”

Fiona Carragher, who is chief policy and research officer at the Alzheimer’s Society in London, pointed out that this isn’t saying that a short-term period of negative thinking will cause Alzheimer’s disease. “Most of the people in the study were already identified as being at higher risk of Alzheimer’s disease,” she added. “so we need more research to see if these results exist within the general population.”

28. What does the study show?

A. Negative thinking removes harmful proteins in brain.

B. Optimistic people have better cognitive ability.

C. Alzheimer’s disease leads to worse memory.

D. Continuous pessimism may result in Alzheimer’s disease.

29. What did the researchers guess in paragraph 3?

A. Constant negative thinking may cause depressed people to get Alzheimer’s disease.

B. Long-term negative thinking is the reason for cognitive decline.

C. Alzheimer’s disease probably results in the increase in harmful proteins.

D. Anxiety and depression are the main causes of Alzheimer’s disease.

30. What is the attitude of Dr. Richard Isaacson towards the study?

A. Neutral.   B. Supportive.    C. Negative.     D. Uncaring.

31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. The research needs to be further improved.

B. The study will provide a cure for Alzheimer’s disease.

C. The following research will focus on short-term negative thinking.

D. The general population has a lower risk of having Alzheimer’s disease.

D

A new app uses Artificial Intelligence （AI） to tell you what your pet is thinking. It's called Happy Pets and it analyses an animal's facial features, tells you what breed （血统）it is and indicates which of the five most common animal emotions—happy, angry, neutral, sad and scared.

The Happy Pets app uses AI or machine learning. It's a technology that's used for vision in robotics and self-driving cars and it works by taking in images and assigning importance to them. One common use for Al is in facial recognition technology. Many of us can unlock our mobile phones with an image of our face and it's an important part of security processes in, for instance, airports.

But this is the first time this kind of technology has been used for animals. It then had to learn to recognise facial features. This is sophisticated because photos can be taken in so many different ways： from the side, above, below, in bright light. And different animals can have such different facial features. Think about how different the noses of a border collie （边境牧羊犬）and a bulldog are, for instance. Once the AI behind Happy Pets had learned all this, it then had to be able to detect emotions based on specific facial features that are associated with each emotion, which it has learnt from thousands of examples. For instance, if a dog tightens its eyes and mouth while changing the position of its ears in a particular way, it's a sign of being scared.

In an online article for Melbourne University's Pursuit, the researchers write they're happy with how the app performs. The researchers would love feedback about how they could develop the app further.

32. Which of the following may go beyond Happy Pets' function?

A. Learning the kinds of pets.

B. Showing pets' main feelings.

C. Teaching pets' facial recognition.

D. Analyzing the pets' facial features.

33. What is the facial recognition technology commonly used as now?

A. The robots' eyes.             B. A security system.

C. The vision of self driving.      D. A machine learning system.

34. What does the underlined word "sophisticated" in paragraph 3 mean?

A. Typical.   B. Complex.    C. Scientific.    D. Traditional.

35. Why does Happy Pets have to learn to recognize faces?

A. Because faces can show animals' feelings.

B. Because it wants to have emotions of humans.

C. Because it is learning to use facial expressions.

D. Because the types of animals are based on the looks.

Dear Lucy,

I’m glad to receive your letter asked about my holiday life. I usually get up very early or do exercise in the park. Learning at home takes on most of my time. At times, I helped my parents with some housework when they are busy, that makes me happy. Meanwhile I take active part in social activities, such as community voluntary work. Sometimes, I join many more volunteers in going out to the streets to collect rubbishes. Besides, I try our best to help those in need, often going to the orphanage to visit the lonely children. I find greatly pleasure in these activities.

Yours,

Li Fang
