Architects have long turned to the past for inspiration. In this age of concrete and steel, however, they're more likely to look for aesthetic （美学的） influence than technical know-how. But an ancient Chinese construction technique called dougong is a remarkable exception.

Consisting of a series of wooden brackets （支架）with no nails or fasteners, it500 years old and commonly found in Chinese architecture, such as the Forbidden City in Beijing. Many structures built during the Tang and Song dynasties featured "curtain walls” which were non-load-bearing. As a result, the unsupported wood shouldering the weight might break. Designers needed a technique which would more regularly spread the burden across their structures. Their solution was dougong.

Engineering has come a long way since the ancient Chinese building technique was fashion. But there's a timeless quality to it. Modem designers in many areas are adopting it to produce amazing and stable work of architecture. Among them is Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, who used dougong-inspired methods for his recent buildings: Yusuhara Wooden Bridge Museum and Cafe Kureon, a2, 120-square-foot restaurant

For architect Terrence Curry, the attraction of using ancient methods is about finding something that can "speak to Chinese identity". His structure Dougong Cube （立方）, now part of the School of Architecture, Tsinghua University in Beijing, was constructed using classical-style brackets and over2, 000boards. "It has fundamental structure of dougong, but we just aren't using it in the way it was intended to be used. We're really pulling it out-emphasizing its beauty and complexity, and the way it works, "said Curry, “The shape and function of dougong is directly related to properties of wood, and the ability of people who make these buildings. In this way, there's little need for decoration because the structure and design give it its distinctive look. "

A. It changes the basic style of dougong.

B. It is more practical than previous Chinese buildings.

C. Its charm can be brought out by its materials and designers.

D. Its unique design remains unknown to the public.

31. What's the main idea of the text?

A. Dougong reflects Chinese wisdom in architecture.

B. Chinese identity can be revealed through its architecture.

C. Chinese architecture has a lasting influence on the world.

D. Dougong Cube presents a combination of innovation and tradition

D

A new paper claims that the birds can understand a certain kind of pattern, displaying an ability that scientists once thought was unique to humans.

Researchers tested whether crows can grasp the concept of recursion （递归）, which they define as "the process of embedding （嵌入） structures within similar structures" in their paper published in Science Advances. Humans use recursion in language when we embed one clause within another to form a complex sentence. For example, if a human says, 'The ball the bat hit flew, "they've nested the clause "the bat hit" inside of "the ball flew".

Scientists have long wondered whether understanding these patterns is unique to humans. In the early2000s, linguists thought that human language was the only form of animal communication that uses recursion.

However, in a2020study, researchers proposed that rhesus macaque monkeys might be able to create recursive sequences （序列）as well. The monkeys performed at the level of 3-to 5-year-old human children given the same task, but they need more training to do so.

In the new study, the researchers performed a similar experiment or two crows. They trained the birds to peck at sets of brackets, such as{}and [], in a recursive pattern, for example, {[]}. During training, the crows received birdseed balls for successfully forming recursive sequences.

Then, when presented with pairs of brackets that they hadn't seen before, such as（[]）. the crows correctly formed embedded structures around 40 percent of the time. They had similar success rate to children and performed better than the monkeys in the2020study. They didn't need the extra training the monkeys received.

"It is a small sample size, which means you can't make generalizations about populations of crows, but that wasn't the point, "Stephen Ferrigno, a scientist who was not involved in the new paper, said, "All you need is a single example showing that crows can do this. "

32. Which of the following can be an example of recursion?

A. The cat, scared, ran away.

B. The cat ran away instantly it spotted a snake.

C. The cat the boy shouted at ran away.

D. The cat ran away, which was a relief to the rat.

33. What can we know about the studies on recursion?

A. Non-verbal animals are not able to grasp recursion.

B. Monkeys' success rate of forming recursive sequences is below 40%

C. Monkeys outperform children in grasping recursion.

D. Crows require the most training to create recursive sequences.

34. What does Stephen Ferrigno imply in the last paragraph?

A. It is easy to conduct further research.

B. The populations of crows can't be generalized.

C. The new study alone can prove the result.

D. We should be optimistic about the future of crows.

35. What's the writing purpose of the text?

A. To call for the protection of crows.

B. To reveal the findings of a study.

C. To explain the unique ability of crows.

D. To compare crows' intelligence with humans'.
