Using material leftver frm her grandmther’s cllectin f utdated fabrics, Julia has sewn many f the dresses Gergie envisined. She ntes that she desn’t always fllw her “grandma sketch”, as what lks gd n paper might nt translate nt the bdy. “Grandma encurages that,” Julia explains.
This nging cperatin acrss generatins has led t an extremely ppular TikTk series in which Julia shws Gergie what she’s created. It’s als sparked sweet cnversatins between the tw f them, which are shared n vide. “It’s a beautiful bnding experience between us that has made Grandma happy,” she said.
“Lts f peple wh are lder and watch my vides say they lve seeing smene yunger appreciate smething frm their generatin” she said. “And then yunger peple see it and maybe they lst their grandparents, and they say seeing my vides reminds them f their grandparents,” said Julia.

Scientists have fund that flating slar panels (太阳能板) culd prvide a huge amunt f electricity if they were placed n lakes and ther bdies f water arund the wrld. Flating slar panels culd als help save water and prtect land.
Slar panels—als knwn as “phtvltaic” panels—are used t turn sunlight int electricity. Mst slar panels are placed n land in large cllectins called slar farms. But recently peple have begun t explre putting flating slar panels n water. Because these panels flat, sme peple call them “flatvltaics”.
The researchers behind the new study lked at 114,555 reservirs (水库) wrldwide. They used cmputer prgrams t figure ut hw much electricity culd be prduced yearly by cvering 30% f these reservirs with flating slar panels. The answer was surprisingly large - mre than twice the amunt f energy the United States generates in a year. And 10 times as much energy as all the slar pwer currently being generated in the wrld. The researchers described the results as “remarkable”.
The scientists fund that flatvltaics wuld be especially cnducive when reservirs were near smaller cities(50,000 peple r less). The researchers say there are abut 6,256 small cities arund the wrld where flating slar panels culd prvide all the electricity the cities need.
Flatvltaics can als help save water by limiting evapratin (蒸发) frm reservirs. The scientists say that slar panels cvering just 30% f the reservirs’ surfaces culd save as much water as 300 millin peple wuld use in a year. There are several ther reasns that make flatvltaics a gd idea. Phtvltaic panels wrk better when they’re nt extremely ht. The water helps cl the panels s that they create mre energy. Putting slar panels n water als means that there’s n need t clear land fr a slar farm. That’s mre and mre imprtant as cuntries wrk t fight climate change and prtect natural spaces fr wild animals.
8. What did the researchers think f the study results?
A. Amazing.B. Amusing.
C. Skeptical.D. Instructive.
9. What des the underlined wrd “cnducive” in paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Trublesme.B. Affrdable.
C. Demanding.D. Useful.
10. What’s nt an advantage f flatvltaics ver slar panels n land?
A. They can help save water.B. They can be less expensive.
C. They can help prtect wild land.D. They can be mre prductive smetimes.
11. What’s the best title fr the text?
A. The Methds f Flatvltaics
B. The Prspects f Slar Panels
C. Slar Farms—Turning Sunlight int Electricity
D. Flating Slar Panels—Making Energy, Saving water

Whm shuld yu marry? Where shuld yu live? Hw shuld yu spend yur time? Fr centuries, peple have relied n their gut instincts (直觉) t figure ut the answers t these life-changing questins. Nw, thugh, there is a better way. We are living thrugh a data explsin, as vast amunts f infrmatin abut all aspects f human behavir have becme mre and mre accessible. We can use this big data t help determine the best curse t chart.
There has lng been verwhelming—and ften surprising—evidence that algrithms (算法) can be much better than peple at making difficult decisins. Researchers have cllected data n varius kinds f chices peple make, the infrmatin they base thse chices n, and hw things turn ut. They have fund, fr example, that a simple data-driven algrithm wuld have been better than judges at deciding whether a defendant shuld stay in prisn r be released; better than dctrs at deciding whether a patient shuld underg surgery; and better than schl principals at deciding which teachers shuld be prmted.
The pwer f data analysis has been prved in the sprts and business wrlds, t. As made famus by the bk and mvie Mneyball, baseball teams fund that algrithms were better than scuts (星探) at picking players, and better than managers at picking strategies. In finance, the hedge fund Renaissance Technlgies dramatically defeated cmpetitrs by seeking ut patterns in stck market data and using them t infrm its investment strategy. Tech firms in Silicn Valley have fund that data frm experiments prvides better insights int hw t design their websites than designers culd.
These are the early days f the data revlutin in decisin-making. I am nt claiming that we can cmpletely cunt n algrithms t make ur lifestyle chices, thugh we might get t that pint in the future. I am claiming instead that we can all dramatically imprve ur decisin-making by cnsulting evidence mined frm thusands r millins f peple wh faced dilemmas similar t urs. And we can d that nw.
12. What’s the main idea f the passage?
A. Big data is a duble-edged swrd.
B. Data revlutin will change peple’s life.
C. Big data is helpful in making imprtant decisins.
D. Algrithms behaves better than peple in many fields.
13. Accrding t paragraph 2, algrithms might NOT defeat peple in_________.
A. curt rulingsB. jb prmtins
C. perative estimatinD. teaching practices
14. What is the writing purpse f paragraph 3?
A. T prvide further evidence.B. T shw ptential applicatins.
C. T encurage the use f big data.D. T explain hw t use algrithms.
15. Which f the fllwing will the authr mst prbably agree with?
A. Algrithms ffer perfect advice nw.
B. Big data will certainly cause a revlutin.
C. Big data can make up fr ur lack f experience.
