Frank Bwling, ne f Britain's mst celebrated abstract painters, is selling prints f his wrk t help fund art supplies fr 100 primary schls in the UK. It is part f a prject that he hpes will be a "game changer" in art educatin by making state schl students realize art is nt ff limits.
Art educatin in state schls is under threat, with its cst n per pupil in England falling by nearly 10% in real terms since 2009 and many institutins having t cut back n art lessns including fine art. A study by the Fabian Sciety in 2019 fund that 68% f primary schl teachers in England felt there was less art educatin then than in 2010, with under half believing the quality had decreased.
Bwling's sn, Ben Bwling, helped rganize the prject. Prceeds frm the sale f 100 signed prints will fund "art package", which include canvas（油画布）, paint and six-lessn curriculum that culd give abut 30,000 primary schl children an "alternative" intrductin t art. He said, "Enabling children f all ages, irrespective f their family backgrund r their means, t have access t art educatin and material is the gal."
The idea fr the prject came when Frank Bwling began t receive invitatins frm Lndn schls whse pupils were using his wrk as inspiratin. Tgether with his sn, he started visiting schls and ding presentatins t six- and seven-year-lds and realized there were things they needed. Ben nted, "Art schls in England have becme the preserve f the elite（精英）."
Frank Bwling said, "Artists will always d what they have t d and find ways f ding. Art finds a way, but yung children need schls t be a place f artistic pssibilities. It's nt just abut making art; it's abut making sure they feel inspired t create, n matter what."
24. What is threatening art educatin in state schls?
A. The shrtage f art schlteachers.B. The increase in the cst f art lessns.
C. The instability f art learning pprtunities. D. The reductin in investment in art educatin.

Eclgist Carl Safina's latest bk fcuses n the chimpanzees, the sperm whale and the scarlet macaw. In Becming Wild: Hw Animal Cultures Raise Families, Create Beauty, and Achieve Peace, he writes abut culture, the structures f scieties, and what makes us wh and what we are.
Safina's three animals are selected fr their variety. Safina warns against thinking abut chimpanzees in purely human terms. "We see in them partially frmed premiumans caught between being and becming, a frerunner f humankind," Safina writes, nting, "Chimpanzees are nt ur ancestrs. Chimps are ur cntempraries. They are cmplete chimpanzees, nt half-baked humans."
The main reasn fr this warning is als ne f the central attempts f Becming Wild: criticize the idea f human exceptinalism. Fr centuries, scientists and philsphers have fixed that exceptinalism n ne thing after anther: Humans are the nly animals that have language, humans are the nly animals that make tls, etc. These have all biled dwn t the same idea that nly humans have culture.
Safina's bk shws that nthing culd be further frm the truth. Human beings have nly recently begun t recgnize the animal cultures arund them. "Humans use language s much that it has swamped ur wn ability t recgnize nnverbal signals that we urselves cntinually display and respnd t," Safina writes. "The wrld is full f layers and waves f cmmunicatin."
Becming Wild describes cmmunicatin f all kinds. Sperm whales include each ther in snic webs full f vcabulary and even reginal dialects. They find meaning in family and grup identity by living in stable grups where individuals stay tgether fr decades. Only in sperm whales and humans d grup identities extend s far beynd relatives. Like whales, yung scarlet macaws clsely fllw cultural practices. They spend years learning tl-fashining and develping unique calls learned frm their parents. They als learn dialects t enhance grup identity. Chimpanzees mirrr all the interpersnal cmplexity f humans. A huge part f chimpanzee life is learning hw t make peace thrugh frgiveness.
28. What des Safina think abut chimpanzees?
A. They are human beings' ancestrs.
B. They are randmly chsen fr study.
C. They are species independent f humans.
D. They are the symbl f being and becming.
29. What is an attempt f Becming Wild?
A. T prve an assumptin. B. T challenge a belief.
C. T present a fact. D. T evaluate a statement.
30. What des the underlined wrd "swamped" in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Indicated. B. Measured. C. Tested. D. Weakened.
31. What is mainly presented in Becming Wild?
A. The existence f animal culture. B. The uniqueness f human beings.
C. The cmplexity f human sciety. D. The imprtance f animal cmmunicatin.
D
A small study published Wednesday dcument s significantly restred hearing in five f six kids treated in China. "Hearing lss is hard t recver. That's why we were always trying t develp a therapy（疗法）," said Zheng-Yi Chen, a senir authr f the study.
Glbally, 34 millin children have deafness r hearing lss, and genes are respnsible fr up t 60% f cases.
All the children in the experiments have a cnditin that accunts fr 2% t 8% f inherited（遗传的） deafness. It's caused by mutatins（变异） in a gene respnsible fr an inner ear prtein called tferlin, which helps hair cells transmit sund t the brain.
The therapy f Chen's team delivers a functin al cpy f that gene t the inner ear during a surgery. It caused n majr side effects. They bserved the children fr abut six mnths and captured patients ' prgress in vides. One shws a little girl 13 weeks after treatment repeating father, mther, grandmther, sister and "I lve yu." They dn't knw why the treatment didn't wrk in ne f them. But the five thers, wh previusly had cmplete deafness, can nw hear a regular cnversatin and talk with thers.
Prir results frm ther researches have been just as psitive. The Philadelphia hspital reprted that their patient, Aissam Dam, is nw able t hear his father's vice and cars n the rad. Dr. Jhn Germiller, wh led the research in Philadelphia said, "His hearing is imprved frm a state f cmplete deafness with n sund at all t the level f mild hearing lss."
Clumbia University's Dr. Lawrence Lustig said, "Althugh the children in these studies dn't wind up with perfect hearing, even a mild hearing lss recvery in these kids is pretty astnishing." Still, he added, "Many questins remain, such as hw lng the therapies will last and whether hearing will cntinue t imprve in the kids."
32. What is Paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. The result f Chen's therapy. B. The impact f gene mutatins.
C. The truble f curing hearing lss. D. The analysis f children's deafness.
33. What d mst participants in the tw researches have in cmmn?
A. They shwed psitive respnse t the therapy. B. Their pwer f speech was partially regained.
C. Their imprvements were recrded by vides. D. They had mild hearing lss after the treatment.
34. What is Dr. Lawrence Lustig's attitude tward the therapy?
A. Dismissive. B. Objective. C. Dubtful. D. Unclear.
35. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Gene Therapy: A Hpe fr the Deaf
B. Deaf Children: A Cncern f Sciety
C. Chen's Research: A Breakthrugh in Surgery
D. Inherited Deafness: A Challenge fr Treatment

The rund-up fundraising strategy was first intrduced abut 15 years ag. Why have rund up fr charity campaigns prven s successful? Katie Kelting, an assciate prfessr f marketing at Saint Luis University, suggests that there's sme pwerful psychlgy at wrk.
In 2018, Kelting and her clleagues enlisted the St. Luis Z in a field study. Instead f asking peple fr the usual $1 dnatin fr a wild animal cnservatin effrt, the z temprarily tried the rund-up apprach. 36 As Kelting explains, a lt f it has t d with the "pain" f parting with ur hard-earned cash. The perceived pain is less in the cnsumer's mind when that rund-up request is presented.
37 Humans, fr instance, appear t have a fairly strng preference fr rund numbers, r figures ending with a zer. A 2013 study nted that at restaurants, many peple prefer t leave tips that bring the final bill t a rund number. "_38_ Peple are better at and intuitively（直觉地） prefer t deal with rund numbers," Kelting says.
Arguably mre imprtant is that at cashier register charitable requests can change an rdinary purchase int a mral dilemma. It becmes an pprtunity t signal t thers that we care. In the case f the rund-up request, it becmes smething f a mral test. 39
Kelting says that custmers might als change their behavir and perceptins in public and private settings. 40 Hwever, the same decisin in frnt f a cashier—especially ne wh adds a verbal（口头的） request fr the dnatin—is smething different.
A. It's like an effrt-reductin strategy.
B. There are likely ther factrs in play.
C. In a private setting, it is easier t decline.
D. During the experiment fundraising jumped by 21%.
E. The rund-up fundraising strategy has really taken ff recently.
F. It's such a lw-cst ask that saying n starts t make us feel guilty.
G. Custmers may becme verwhelmed with the rund-up fundraising.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
The first pem that I ever fell in lve with was Edgar Allan Pe's "The Raven," 56 ften quted phrase "nevermre" seems t tell much abut Americans as they will "nevermre" willingly read petry. At the peak f petry's 57 (ppular) in 2017, nly abut 28 millin Americans reprted that they had read a pem within the last year.
As humans, we are 58 (cnstant) trying t acknwledge the fact that sme feelings cannt 59 (cnvey) clearly, and yet we shy away frm an art frm that depends n cllecting emtin frm every day and 60 (translate) it nt paper s that it becmes cncrete.
In between lines, pets can transfrm heavy tpics f lve and lss 61 easy wrds that are nt nly understd but als felt. We need petry 62 (remind) us f what we can be "if nly we're brave enugh," as Grman wuld say.
Yes, pems are cnfusing at times, 63 it is yur understanding that lends itself t meaning. Everything, frm capitalizatin t punctuatin（标点） marks, can be picked apart and thrwn tgether; in the end, it is up t yu t find 64 yu need.
Regardless f 65 (they) shapes, pems are all reflectins f the human desire t feel. Nathalie Handal in her piece "Lve Letter" put it best, "I'd like t be a pem, t reach yur heart and stay."
S let it stay.

Finally, the car pulled int my grandparents Gran and Mimi's driveway, which stretched in a thin line thrugh the maple（枫树） frest. Sky-blue tubes stretched frm the trunks f the maples, sending sap（树液） int a huge tank. I liked visiting the farm n spring breaks... befre I knew hw badly I culd mess things up.
During lunch Mimi asked, "Why s depressed, Jude?" They were really acting as if nthing bad happened during my last visit. Fr a secnd, my eyes caught Mimi's. Culd I ask her hw much mney their neighbr lst? Was Mr. Jacksn still upset? "I'm fine," I answered. "Just missing cmputer camp this week. That's…smething I'm gd at." Mimi ndded. "Ahh, that sunds disappinting."
After lunch, I was n my wn while Gran and Mimi wrked in the sugarhuse. N way was I ging there. The sugarhuse was next t Mr. Jacksn's rse beds, which was destryed by the gats I carelessly let lse last year. Suddenly Mimi pened the sugarhuse dr. "Jude! Cme quick, please. We need yu t drp defamer（消泡剂）int the sap, r it will bil ver."
"They need me?" I guessed I wuld just g fr a minute. When I walked thrugh the drway, a burst f sweet maple hugged me. Mimi passed me a small plastic bttle. Quickly, I added drps t each pan befre any sap biled ver. The sap was cming in gd! I had t make sure the sap kept flwing in while I gt the fire burning.
Then, ut f nwhere, there was Mr. Jacksn! Opening the sugarhuse dr. "I need help," he yelled. "Maise is birthing, and the lamb needs a strng pull." That was when he saw me. "He's prbably been waiting fr this mment since last summer." I gt frightened. But instead, Mr. Jacksn said, "Great! Jude is here. Bth f yu cme. Jude can stay here and watch the bil." Befre they left, Mimi reminded me, "Jude, yu culd make it. Just bil the sap t syrup（糖浆） fr us t draw it ff!"

W: As a little by, I dreamt f getting int filming. I wrked in a shp just after graduatin. Then a friend gt me a temprary jb fr a cmpany ding films. One day, I saw a pst fr a persn t be a runner wrking fr a TV prgram. I thught that was the perfect pprtunity. I was delighted when I gt it. Nw I've been a directr fr abut twelve years. I've dne a number f different prgrams, like Bargain Hunt and Hme Cking, but at the mment I'm wrking n a nature prgram called Cuntry File. The hardest part f the jb is getting the music tgether. When yu find a piece f music that ges with the film then yu create the right atmsphere and it ttally brings the film alive. There's s much variety in my jb and I'm always learning abut new things. Last year, I did a writing curse. It really made sense t me. Nt lng ag, I did a film abut sme rare birds and we had t use new technlgy t film at night. I prefer t learn frm experience by trying smething ut. I try new things t discver my ptential, and try t adjust myself t the scial envirnment and imprve myself step by step.My Senir High Schl Life
