My twelve-year-ld daughter, Clementine. is bsessed with the character Eleven frm Netflix’s Stranger Things. Sandwiched between tw brthers, Clementine is rugh and awkward at times, what back in my day peple called a tmby. Fr a while I feared, despite all the female empwerment messages n TV and T-shirts, she was starting t think girls were stupid. Then alng came Stranger Things, with its tngue-tied and bald rebel wh can smash train cars with the pwer f her mind.
Fr the mst part, I'm thrilled that Clementine wants t be Eleven, wh is the rare yung herine, equally
brilliant and raw. and pssessed f perseverance and hpe, with a desire fr human cnnectin and the skill t battle the evil. She is an enrmus set up frm my childhd girl-crushes including all six Iadies in Charlie’s Angels and the Lynda Carter versin f Wnder Wman wh are all cmpetitive and smart. But it's interesting t me that my daughter lit upn a character whse primary emtin is this massive anger and whse main rle in the shw cnsists f learning t channel her anger t defeat a dark frce. Is Clementine seeing what she lngs fr r identifies with? If she had such pwers, what wuld she want t d?
Parents everywhere understand there is a mental health crisis amngst yung peple. Girls especially are lsing hpe. We just dn't knw hw r even what t fix. Maybe Eleven can give these girls a blueprint, r faith that they can ne day be in charge again. Maybe she can encurage thse girls t fight back. Smewhere deep dwn, they sense that rage is exactly the right thing t feel. And why waste that passin slamming drs and cursing brthers when their anger culd be emplyed t cnquer s much mre?
Fr ur daughters, Eleven lays ut a path int the future. Simply being ambitius and resurceful is n lnger enugh. Circumstances are calling fr a new srt f herine, ne with a brain ptent enugh t make the best f her anger.

In the winter f 2022, Andreas Keller decided the time was right t branch ut frm his day jb as a scientist and launch a new art gallery. Nt just any gallery, but ne devted entirely t smell-based art.
Smell has always been ur underdg sense, thugh. Our scientific understanding f hw smell wrks falls s far behind ur grasp f hearing and visin, and smells cannt at this pint be recrded r emailed r Instagram med. It's bth primitive and cmplex, which makes it hard t study and harder still t bring int ur increasingly digital existence.
“When yu are asked t smell art,” Keller says, “yu realize hw pr yur perceptin f the wrld is when yu limit yurself t the visual. ” Fr several weeks, the gallery's windws were cvered in tin t allw fr full immersin in the smell f “ld banana” and “yung banana”. Or the visitrs may get a smell f a perfumer's interpretatin f what a be aver might smell like t a dg r a bee's hmemade perfume.
Sme peple gt very cnfused. Then there's always smebdy wh can't smell anything and thinks it's a silly trick. Thse visitrs willing and able t stay and think carefully abut a scent by the name f “sinner” ften argue abut what they are smelling is that hspital stuff? Church incense (熏香)?
These persnal respnses are exactly what Keller has devted much f his academic life t studying: Why d varius individuals seem t understand the same smells differently, r interpret the same smells in different ways, r nt ntice sme f them at all? Such questins are at the heart f the larger prblem f hw smells are cded by the brain.
Perhaps scientist will sn catch wind f the answers, as the pandemic has als brught a fld f new funding t this field. Prgress in this field may depend n unusual creativity and cperatin, between perfumers and language experts, artists and engineers. “Perceptin is a philsphical as well as a scientific prblem.” Keller says.
28. Which f the fllwing can replace the underlined wrd “underdg” in paragraph 2?
A. Acquired. B. Strng.
C. Natural. D. Ignred.
29. Why did sme visitrs think they were fled?
A. Because they felt sick.
B. Because they smelt nthing.
C. Because they were limited t the visual.
D. Because they were immersed in the smell f banana.
30. What can be inferred abut the science f smell?
A. It is cded by the brain in different ways.
B. It has suffered frm lack f funds fr a lng time.
C. It has the ptential t answer philsphical questins.
D. It needs the teamwrk f prfessinals in varius fields.
31. What is the best title fr the text?
A. Sniffing Out the Science f Smelling
B. Smelling Experiment ——A Silly Trick
C. Interpreting Smells in Different Ways
D. Arguing Abut Smelling A Hspital Stuff
D
A team f urban planners and infrmatin scientists at Tsinghua University in China has fund that an AI-based urban planning system culd utperfrm human experts in creating urban planning designs. In their study, the grup untrduced the factrs fr the ideal urban plan and hw well their AI did when tested.
Fr much f histry, cities have been left t grw rganically ——immediate needs were determined and urban planners attempted t fulfill thse needs. Such a randm apprach t urban grwth has ften led t less-favred results. In mre recent times, city fficials and ther planners have attempted t take a mre lgical apprach t the prblem by creating designs that accunt fr livability and pllutin cntrls.
This has resulted in the develpment f urban planning as a science and the emergence f urban develpment prfessinals. This science can be cmplicated due t the increasing number f variables that must be accunted fr as a new develpment expands. In this new effrt, the research team attempted t apply AI t ease the burden.
In hpe that residents f the planned cmmunity culd travel frm their hmes t essential services within 15 minutes, the researchers trained the system with prir plans crafted by humans alng with factrs that are believed t be gd design features such as the inclusin f parks, general greenery, bike paths and places fr entertainment, thus imprving their quality f life.
Once the system was built, the research grup used it t first design a small-size city blck. They wuld adjust the system fr further imprvements and gradually increased the size and studied its results.
It turned ut that the plans the system develped were as gd r better than thse created by humans yet a huge reductin in time (frm hurs t secnds). The team cncludes that their system is nt meant t replace human urban planners, but t free them frm the mundane(单调的)parts f urban planning, allwing them t fcus n verall cncepts. Hpefully, it wuld be an efficiency bster, if dne right.
32. Why was urban planning ften unsatisfactry in histry?
A. Urban grwth was nt well-rganized.
B. Urban planning experts were in shrtage.
C. City fficials failed t meet residents' needs.
D. City fficials ignred the factrs fr ideal urban plan.
33. What factrs did the research team cnsider when training the AI system?
A. Large cmmunity and ec parks.
B. Ecnmic develpment and jb pprtunities.
C. Smth traffic and advanced green belt.
D. Cnvenient transprt and public services.
34. What is the main advantage f the AI-based urban planning system?
A. It reduces the burden n human urban planners.
B. It guarantees ptimal results fr urban develpment.
C. It ensures faster cmpletin f urban planning prjects.
D. It eliminates the need fr any human invlvement in planning.
35. What is the authr's attitude twards the AI system?
A. Dismissive. B. Apprving. C. Critical. D. Ambiguus.
