Fr 16-year-ld Ma Yifei, the vilin perfrmance f the Beijing 2022 Olympic theme sng, Snwflake, was her best present fr Paralympians (残奥运动员) all ver the wrld. Thugh snwflakes are related t winter, she let thers feel warmth, hpe and light thrugh her perfrmance.
Ma went blind at the age f tw because f an illness. She fell in lve with music when she was yung. She began t learn t play the pian at five and the vilin at nine, experiencing the “clrful” music thrugh sund and emtin.
Ma’s mther Ha Chunyan, was a music teacher in a primary schl and helped her memrize the music scre (乐谱) befre she played the pian. Ma culd nt see the keys and always played the wrng ntes. It tk her thusands f tries t play a piece crrectly.
Learning the vilin was mre challenging. Ma needed t feel the teacher’s hands, arms and back t learn the mvements, and listen t the strings (弦) ver and ver again t feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.
“After three years f learning, she still culd nt make any sund except terrible nises,” said Ha, wh advised her daughter t give up the vilin. But Ma said,“As I’ve been practising s lng, it’s hard t give up. I believe I will play better if I persist in practising.”
In 2018, Ma gt a chance t fllw tw famus musicians Sheng Yuan and Ca Yuhan frm the Central Cnservatry f Music and study music in Beijing. She left her hme in Ningxia t fllw her musical dream, thugh she knew there wuld be mre challenges ahead.
Ma expressed her excitement abut perfrming at the big event. “All my hard wrk has paid ff. I’m prud f standing n the stage tday.”

Even thugh we may believe that it’s imprtant t say thank yu, smetimes expressing gratitude (感恩) is easier said than dne. We might find urselves getting cnfused abut the details f what t say r the best way t send the message. As a result, many times, we d nt express ur gratitude.
Accrding t new research, hwever, it’s pssible that we might be making expressing thanks mre cmplicated (复杂的) than it needs t be. In a paper published in a psychlgy magazine, researchers cmpared the effects f expressing thanks in persn, ver a vide call, and by text. While peple generally expect an in-persn thank-yu t be mst effective, what happened in daily life was quite different—sending a thank-yu by text was almst as useful and effective as expressing thanks in persn. What’s mre, texting may be a very gd chice when we feel embarrassed abut expressing ur thanks.
In ne study, 219 cllege students tk part in a gratitude activity in which they wrte abut three things they were grateful fr ver a tw-week perid. After writing, the students were asked t actually thank the peple. Sme cnnected with the peple they wanted t thank in persn, thers made vide calls, and thers sent messages. At the beginning and end f the tw weeks, these students cmpleted surveys sharing their feelings f well-being, cnnectins, depressin, lneliness, and happiness. The researchers fund that peple wh expressed gratitude increased their well-being, with nly a few differences between the different methds f gratitude expressin. Overall, vide calls were just as beneficial (有益的) as meeting in persn. Texting was a bit less effective than vide calling—it didn’t make peple feel mre cnnected and happy. Hwever, participants wh sent their thanks by text still experienced benefits: Texting imprved their well-being and reduced their lneliness.
Overall, the message is that we shuldn’t wrry abut finding just the “right” way t express ur gratitude. In fact, yu will prbably feel better sending a quick thank-yu tday than waiting fr the right time t plan an in-persn visit. Yu can be sure t get many benefits f gratitude n matter hw yu send the message.
33. What is the main reasn that mst peple d nt express their gratitude?
A. They feel ashamed t express gratitude.
B. They waste t much mney befre saying it.
C. They think it is useless t express gratitude.
D. They think t much abut the best way t d it.
34. What des the paper mainly shw in paragraph 2?
A. We have t learn hw t express thanks t thers prperly.
B. We had better express gratitude in persn instead f texting.
C. Different ways t express thanks have almst the same effect.
D. Expressing thanks is a cmplicated task and makes us embarrassed.
35. Hw des the writer develp paragraph 3?
A. By cmparing results.B. By listing numbers.
C. By telling stries.D. By giving utlines.
36. What is the writer’s advice n expressing gratitude?
A. Peple shuld take vide calling as their first chice.
B. Peple need t think twice befre they express thanks.
C. It is better t make a gd plan befre paying thers a visit.
D. It is mre imprtant t take actin than t wrry abut the methds.

The analysis, led by a team f scientists, shws that pllutin played a rle in 9 millin deaths glbally in 2019. This influence n health is higher than malaria, tuberculsis, HIV, drugs r alchl.
Thugh imprvements were made in water pllutin in recent years, a rise in air and chemical pllutin means the death rate has been relatively unchanged since 2015.
Air pllutin alne resulted in almst 75% f the reprted deaths. “Air pllutin is similar t smking. It damages the lungs, preventing us frm taking in xygen we need fr life,” said Dr. Martin, ne f the scientists.

The scientists wh led the recent analysis hpe the reprt will encurage actins frm cuntries all ver the wrld. Suggested methds fr change include cntrlling pllutin levels, spending mre mney n research, strengthening pllutin cntrl partnerships and highlighting this prblem in the United Natins. Changing the use f fssil fuels—frm cal, il and gas—t clean, renewable energy surces is als highly suggested. In daily life, researchers call fr peple t cntrl their carbn ftprint, such as cutting meat cnsumptin, aviding waste, r walking r biking as a means f transprt when pssible.
37. What d we knw abut the deaths in 2019 frm the study?

D. Have a medical examinatin every year.
39 What des the underlined wrd “brders” mean in Paragraph 5?
