I still remember my father’s embarrassment the day when he was invited t have dinner at a clleague’s huse. Freshly arriving in Brazil, and nt being able t lk up n the Internet, he ffended his hsts by making a hand gesture — a circle with the thumb and index finger. He had always understd it t mean “OK”, but in Brazil, it meant smething different.
The incident was quickly frgtten. My father’s clleague understd that he prbably wasn’t yet aware f the lcal meaning f the gesture. He gently explained it meant smething rude, and then it was kept in mind under “things nt t be dne in Ri”.
I was reminded myself when turing China. After I replied t a friend’s WeChat message with a Van Ggh sticker that I thught meant “keep fighting”, anther friend tld me I used it wrng.
“The Chinese versin is a bit different,” she said, taking ut her phne and shwing t me. “See these characters? They mean ‘I will hit yu!’”
Life is full f crssed meanings. In India, yu sign t smene t cme ver with yur palm dwn, nt up. And in the Middle East, yu never use yur left hand fr anything public.
As adults, we understand that even if it hurts, a mistake is nly an insult (侮辱) when it is made n purpse. Yet, many cnflicts cme frm misunderstanding, and histry is full f the unfrtunate utcmes f crss-cultural cmmunicatin.
My father’s pre-Internet Brazilian mistake was frgiven because f cntext — he had just arrived and he didn’t knw its lcal meaning. But when cntext is absent r simply differently understd — especially in the scial media — perhaps it is time we all think twice befre typing r talking, especially when the cnsequences can be mre severe than the misuse f a WeChat sticker.
24．What can be inferred frm the authr’s father’s stry?
A．Cultural differences are cmmn.
B．The Internet helps t avid mistakes.
C．Misunderstandings lead t bad results.
D．The OK sign means differently in Brazil.
25．What did the authr mean t d by using the Van Ggh sticker?
A．T greet his friend.B．T threaten his friend.
C．T encurage his friend.D．T make fun f his friend.
26．What might take place if there is n cntext in cmmunicatin?
A．Mutual frgiveness.B．Cultural gaps.
C．Cultural cnflicts. D．Mutual respect.
27．What’s the passage mainly abut?
A．Turism and Culture.B．Language and Culture.
C．Verbal Cmmunicatin.D．Crss-Cultural Cmmunicatin.
C
Frget abut “military-style travel” during which peple tend t visit as many places as pssible in the least amunt f time. A mre relaxed and leisurely alternative, such as “Citywalk”, is becming the nrm amng urban yungsters.

A tur guide narrated the histry f the buildings and streets alng the way. “If it were me walking alne, I wuld simply find the streets artistic, but the tur that day helped me gain a better understanding f hw Western culture blends in with the lcal culture in Shanghai,” she said. Anther surprising benefit f the walk was that she has made friends with tw f her fellw walkers.
Lin Yi, a manager fr an nline platfrm fr self-guided turs, said Citywalk can help travelers learn abut lcal culture and live as lcal peple d, feeling the vibes f a city. Peple wh participate in Citywalks usually have similar tastes, and can have in-depth discussins with each ther, he said.

In rder t survive trips t Mars, humans need xygen. Nw, a team f scientists has designed a rbt that culd extract xygen frm water n the Red Planet.
The rbt, which is called “AI chemist”, used a machine learning mdel t find a cmpund that culd ignite an xygen-prducing chemical reactin n Mars. The cmpund, knwn as a catalyst (催化剂), is made entirely frm elements fund in Martian meterites (陨石) —which means, if such a system culd wrk reliably, space travelers wuld nt need t bring xygen r even the catalyst needed t prduce it.
Mars’ atmsphere cntains nly trace amunts f xygen. But scientists have detected evidence f liquid water beneath the planet’s suthern ice cap. T create the breathable gas, researchers wanted t find a way t break dwn this water int its hydrgen and xygen mlecules using materials fund n Mars.
Their rbt analyzed five meterites that either came frm Mars r had a cmpsitin similar t that f the Martian surface. Using a laser, it identified significant amunts f irn, nickel, calcium, magnesium, aluminum and manganese in the samples. Frm these six elements, the rbt’s algrithm (算法) determined it culd prduce mre than 3.7 millin pssible mlecules t break dwn water and frm xygen n Mars. Accrding t the researchers, finding the best ne frm this extensive list wuld take rughly 2,000 years f human labr, but fr the AI chemist, it tk nly weeks.
“On Earth, we dn’t use these six elements,” Yi Lu, a c-authr f the study says. “They are nt the best chices fr catalysts, but it’s nly what yu’ve gt n Mars.”
With its chsen catalyst, the system culd prduce xygen frm the Martian materials at arund -37℃, demnstrating the chemical reactin culd be pssible n the cld Martian surface.
Ntably, the rbt was able t carry ut the entire prcess—analyzing the rck samples, identifying the best pssible catalyst and prducing it withut human interventin.
32. What des the underlined wrd “ignite” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Delay. B. Limit. C. Change.D. Cause.
33. What is the basis f extracting xygen n Mars?
A. The xygen that Mars’ atmsphere cntains.
B. The scientists’ previus study n meterites.
C. The existence f water and catalyst n Mars.
D. The amazing learning ability f “AI chemist”
34. What des paragraph 4 mainly talk abut?
A. The finding f six elements.
B. The advantages f the rbts.
C. The frmatin f the meterites.
D. The prcess f prducing xygen.
35. What is the writer’s attitude twards “AI chemist”?
A. Dubtful. B. Favrable. C. Unclear. D. Indifferent.

When I was a child, my mther tld my sister, wh had a 10-inch very bvius scar n her arm, “Nancy, if yu ignre the scar, ther peple will ignre it. It des nt mean they will nt ntice it, but it means it will nt matter t them if it desn’t matter t yu.”
It never ccurred t me that smething like this wuld happen t my sn years later. Sending a child ff t cllege can certainly be stressful fr cncerned parents. It was in 2018 that my sn went ff t cllege. He rarely cntacted us. I culdn’t help asking abut ther aspects, which smetimes made him cmplain that I didn’t treat him as an adult.
T be hnest, my sn is excellent. Sme f my friends always tell me that they admire my sn’s characters and they hpe their sns culd have sme f them.
Unexpectedly, it was 4 ’clck in the mrning in 2020, when I received the phne call. “This is the emergency rm calling and yur sn was just brught in with severe burns n his face, neck and arms. We have called fr an aircraft and are ging t fly him t the burn unit in Seattle.” Seattle was 350 miles frm his cllege, s we knew immediately this was serius.
The dctr described the reasn, which caused the burns. At 6 am, my sn and his friends decided t barbecue hamburgers in the curtyard f their apartment. When they lit the charcal, it burst int flames because they had sprayed t much gasline. The flames caught my sn’s shirt tail and sht frm his waist t well ver his head.
Frtunately, ne f the bys wh was quick-minded grasped my sn and rlled him n the grass. While it saved his life, it was nt in shape t save him frm severe burns and terrible scars.
After he recvered frm the treatments, the dctrs tld him they wuld nt d plastic surgery fr 6 mnths because it takes that lng fr the skin t stp shrinking and wrinkling.

I still remember my father’s embarrassment the day when he was invited t have dinner at a clleague’s huse. Freshly arriving in Brazil, and nt being able t lk up n the Internet, he ffended his hsts by making a hand gesture — a circle with the thumb and index finger. He had always understd it t mean “OK”, but in Brazil, it meant smething different.
The incident was quickly frgtten. My father’s clleague understd that he prbably wasn’t yet aware f the lcal meaning f the gesture. He gently explained it meant smething rude, and then it was kept in mind under “things nt t be dne in Ri”.
I was reminded myself when turing China. After I replied t a friend’s WeChat message with a Van Ggh sticker that I thught meant “keep fighting”, anther friend tld me I used it wrng.
“The Chinese versin is a bit different,” she said, taking ut her phne and shwing t me. “See these characters? They mean ‘I will hit yu!’”
Life is full f crssed meanings. In India, yu sign t smene t cme ver with yur palm dwn, nt up. And in the Middle East, yu never use yur left hand fr anything public.
As adults, we understand that even if it hurts, a mistake is nly an insult (侮辱) when it is made n purpse. Yet, many cnflicts cme frm misunderstanding, and histry is full f the unfrtunate utcmes f crss-cultural cmmunicatin.
My father’s pre-Internet Brazilian mistake was frgiven because f cntext — he had just arrived and he didn’t knw its lcal meaning. But when cntext is absent r simply differently understd — especially in the scial media — perhaps it is time we all think twice befre typing r talking, especially when the cnsequences can be mre severe than the misuse f a WeChat sticker.
24．What can be inferred frm the authr’s father’s stry?
A．Cultural differences are cmmn.
B．The Internet helps t avid mistakes.

25．What did the authr mean t d by using the Van Ggh sticker?
A．T greet his friend.B．T threaten his friend.
C．T encurage his friend.D．T make fun f his friend.
26．What might take place if there is n cntext in cmmunicatin?
A．Mutual frgiveness.B．Cultural gaps.
C．Cultural cnflicts. D．Mutual respect.
27．What’s the passage mainly abut?
A．Turism and Culture.B．Language and Culture.

A tur guide narrated the histry f the buildings and streets alng the way. “If it were me walking alne, I wuld simply find the streets artistic, but the tur that day helped me gain a better understanding f hw Western culture blends in with the lcal culture in Shanghai,” she said. Anther surprising benefit f the walk was that she has made friends with tw f her fellw walkers.
Lin Yi, a manager fr an nline platfrm fr self-guided turs, said Citywalk can help travelers learn abut lcal culture and live as lcal peple d, feeling the vibes f a city. Peple wh participate in Citywalks usually have similar tastes, and can have in-depth discussins with each ther, he said.

In rder t survive trips t Mars, humans need xygen. Nw, a team f scientists has designed a rbt that culd extract xygen frm water n the Red Planet.
The rbt, which is called “AI chemist”, used a machine learning mdel t find a cmpund that culd ignite an xygen-prducing chemical reactin n Mars. The cmpund, knwn as a catalyst (催化剂), is made entirely frm elements fund in Martian meterites (陨石) —which means, if such a system culd wrk reliably, space travelers wuld nt need t bring xygen r even the catalyst needed t prduce it.
Mars’ atmsphere cntains nly trace amunts f xygen. But scientists have detected evidence f liquid water beneath the planet’s suthern ice cap. T create the breathable gas, researchers wanted t find a way t break dwn this water int its hydrgen and xygen mlecules using materials fund n Mars.
Their rbt analyzed five meterites that either came frm Mars r had a cmpsitin similar t that f the Martian surface. Using a laser, it identified significant amunts f irn, nickel, calcium, magnesium, aluminum and manganese in the samples. Frm these six elements, the rbt’s algrithm (算法) determined it culd prduce mre than 3.7 millin pssible mlecules t break dwn water and frm xygen n Mars. Accrding t the researchers, finding the best ne frm this extensive list wuld take rughly 2,000 years f human labr, but fr the AI chemist, it tk nly weeks.
“On Earth, we dn’t use these six elements,” Yi Lu, a c-authr f the study says. “They are nt the best chices fr catalysts, but it’s nly what yu’ve gt n Mars.”
With its chsen catalyst, the system culd prduce xygen frm the Martian materials at arund -37℃, demnstrating the chemical reactin culd be pssible n the cld Martian surface.
Ntably, the rbt was able t carry ut the entire prcess—analyzing the rck samples, identifying the best pssible catalyst and prducing it withut human interventin.
32. What des the underlined wrd “ignite” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Delay. B. Limit. C. Change.D. Cause.
33. What is the basis f extracting xygen n Mars?
A. The xygen that Mars’ atmsphere cntains.
B. The scientists’ previus study n meterites.
C. The existence f water and catalyst n Mars.
D. The amazing learning ability f “AI chemist”
34. What des paragraph 4 mainly talk abut?
A. The finding f six elements.
B. The advantages f the rbts.
C. The frmatin f the meterites.
D. The prcess f prducing xygen.
35. What is the writer’s attitude twards “AI chemist”?

When I was a child, my mther tld my sister, wh had a 10-inch very bvius scar n her arm, “Nancy, if yu ignre the scar, ther peple will ignre it. It des nt mean they will nt ntice it, but it means it will nt matter t them if it desn’t matter t yu.”
It never ccurred t me that smething like this wuld happen t my sn years later. Sending a child ff t cllege can certainly be stressful fr cncerned parents. It was in 2018 that my sn went ff t cllege. He rarely cntacted us. I culdn’t help asking abut ther aspects, which smetimes made him cmplain that I didn’t treat him as an adult.
T be hnest, my sn is excellent. Sme f my friends always tell me that they admire my sn’s characters and they hpe their sns culd have sme f them.
Unexpectedly, it was 4 ’clck in the mrning in 2020, when I received the phne call. “This is the emergency rm calling and yur sn was just brught in with severe burns n his face, neck and arms. We have called fr an aircraft and are ging t fly him t the burn unit in Seattle.” Seattle was 350 miles frm his cllege, s we knew immediately this was serius.
The dctr described the reasn, which caused the burns. At 6 am, my sn and his friends decided t barbecue hamburgers in the curtyard f their apartment. When they lit the charcal, it burst int flames because they had sprayed t much gasline. The flames caught my sn’s shirt tail and sht frm his waist t well ver his head.
Frtunately, ne f the bys wh was quick-minded grasped my sn and rlled him n the grass. While it saved his life, it was nt in shape t save him frm severe burns and terrible scars.
After he recvered frm the treatments, the dctrs tld him they wuld nt d plastic surgery fr 6 mnths because it takes that lng fr the skin t stp shrinking and wrinkling.
