If art preserves the culture f the Crw peple, then Crw wmen are the keepers f that culture, cultivating it t reflect the mdern day.
Fashin designer Bethany Yellwtail grew up riding hrses and running in the fields and swimming in the river and being arund her peple in the Crw Natin and Nrthern Cheyenne Indian reservatins in sutheastern Mntana. She knws first-hand the imprtance f art t maintaining native traditins. In 2015 she turned that knwledge int her wn brand: B. Yellwtail. A year later, she created the B. Yellwtail Cllective, made up f native artists, t fster ecnmic pprtunities fr their cmmunities. Many f thse artists are wmen frm different tribes but all f them preserve their culture and mve it frward thrugh their medium f chice.
Yellwtail and her team wrk fr the native-wned business that’s rted in cmmunity. Artists within the Cllective typically receive 70% f prfit frm retail sales, and fr a prtin f the pandemic (流行病) the brand has upped that t 100%. The extra mney has, f curse, increased artists’ incme in the past year, but the relatinship is interdependent: withut the wrk f thse artists, B. Yellwtail wuldn’t exist and native culture wuld feel the lss.
Dewanda Little Cyte is Yellwtail’s mther. Family is deeply imprtant t their tribe. S is art, which ften runs in the family — and alng the matriarchal (母系的) side. Little Cyte picked up her entrepreneurial spirit frm her parents, wh wned a gift shp. “My parents said, ‘If yu have hands, create smething. D smething, and make a living ff f that,’” she said. After her parents passed away, the artist began learning beading (串珠) earrings herself. Dentalium, a tusk shell ften used in native jewelry, caught her eye in particular. “I lve it, because back in the day, ur Cheyenne wmen wre a lt f dentalium,” she said. “S I wanted t give a cntemprary lk t that — t what ur ancestrs wre.”
Yellwtail herself learned sewing frm her aunts and grandmthers befre mving t Ls Angeles in 2007 t study fashin design. Nw, native wmen supprt native wmen — and matriarchal art evlves.
4. Why did Bethany Yellwtail set up B. Yellwtail?
A. T make their culture cntinue.B. T becme rich as sn as pssible.
C. T reflect the mdern fashins.D. T inspire mre wmen t wrk.
5. What can we learn frm the third paragraph?
A. Native-wned businesses make mney mre easily.
B. The prfit frm the Cllective has fallen sharply.
C. Lcal artists lve t wrk in their cmmunity.
D. Artists, incme is related t the develpment f native culture.
6. Why is Dewanda Little Cyte mentined in the text?
A. T prve she lves her daughter deeply.
B. T shw hw native culture is handed dwn.
C. T praise her effrts t help the yung.
D. T appeal t mre wmen t jin in jewelry design.
7. What kind f persn is Bethany Yellwtail?

When faced with the decisin t get ut f bed r have a few mre minutes f sleep, which d yu chse? Believe it r nt, that decisin culd make a wrld f difference in the rest f yur day.
Abut 85 percent f Americans use an alarm clck t wake up in the mrnings, accrding t sleep researcher Till Rennenber. And while there are n fficial numbers n snzing (打盹), a quick survey f scial media makes it clear that hitting the snze buttn is a ppular pastime.
As t hw the snze buttn will affect yur day, scientists have mixed pinins. Sme scientists think peple wh hit the snze buttn in the mrnings are actually clever, creative and happy while sme said that hitting the snze buttn will ruin yur life, r at the very least yur day. "I feel that hitting the snze buttn has gt t be ne f the wrst things that ever happened t human sleep,” researcher Jnathan Hrwitz said. "The chances f yu ‘snzing’ and actually experiencing a meaningful rest are clse t zer.”
Accrding t sme sleep experts when hitting the snze buttn,yu are in fact cnfusing yur bdy and mind, and thrwing yurself int a deep state f being sleepy. The bdy needs sme time t wake up, s, when returning t what will be a light sleep fr a brief perid f time, yu are putting yur bdy back int a sleep mde befre waking it again. At that pint yur bdy wn’t knw what it wants, resulting in a srt f half awaken state.
If yu really want t take advantage f an alarm clck the key is t frm a healthy sleep cycle. Fcus yur effrts n getting enugh sleep each night and waking up at the same time each day s that when yur alarm ges ff yu feel rested.
8. What can we infer abut hitting the snze buttn frm Paragraph 2?
A. Peple d it just fr fun.B. It is a cmmn practice.
C. Peple take it seriusly.D. It is a bit childish.
9. What d sme sleep experts think f hitting the snze buttn?
A. It is meaningful in the lng term.
B. It makes peple becme lazy.
C. It brings us a sense f satisfactin.
D. It affects ur bdy and mind.
10. What’s the authr’s suggestin n getting the best ut f alarms?
A. Frming a gd sleep habit.B. Trying t relax urselves.
C. Making use f willpwer.D. Using an extra alarm.
11. What is the best title fr the text?
A. Ways t keep refreshed in the mrning.
B. The snze buttn and peple's character.
C. Shuld yu rely n the snze buttn?
D. Hw t avid the light sleep mde?

Frm the engine in yur car t the CPU in yur laptp, mechanical systems tend t heat up when they’re wrking harder. Nw new research has revealed that the same can be said f the brain -and it runs htter than was previusly thught.
This isn’t a sign f malfunctining thugh, researchers think, and may actually be evidence that the brain is perating healthily. Unusual heat signatures culd ptentially be used in the future t lk fr signs f brain damage r disrder.
“T me, the mst surprising finding frm ur study is that the healthy human brain can reach temperatures that wuld be diagnsed as fever anywhere else in the bdy,” says bilgist Jhn O’Neill frm the Medical Research Cuncil (MRC) Labratry f Mlecular Bilgy in the UK. “Such high temperatures have been measured in peple with brain injuries in the past, but had been assumed t result frm the injury.”
Previusly, thse measurements taken frm peple with brain injuries had been the primary insight scientists had int brain temperatures which isn’t the same as capturing the state f the brain during everyday life.
Here, the team used a technique called magnetic resnance spectrscpy (MRS)-measuring chemical patterns thrugh magnetic fields t measure brain temperature in 40healthy vlunteers, aged frm 20 t 40 years ld. What’s mre, they cmbined this infrmatin with data n circadian rhythms (生理节奏) and time f day.
The average brain temperature was38. 5℃ (101.3F) the researchers fund, mre than2degrees higher than under the tngue. The highest brain temperature recrded was40. 9℃(105. 6℃). Daily variatins averaged arund1℃(1.8F), with the uter parts f the brain generally cler.
“We fund that brain temperature drps at night befre yu g t sleep and rises during the day, “says O’Neill. “There is gd reasn t believe this daily variatin is assciated with lng-term brain health—smething we hpe t investigate next.”
12. What des the underlined wrd “malfunctining” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Having different functins.B. Failing t wrk crrectly.
C. Heating up while wrking.D. Operating in high temperatures.
13. What surprises Jhn O’Neill mst in the study accrding t paragraph 3?
A. Brain injuries usually lead t high temperatures.
B. High temperatures are the signs f brain damage.
C. Healthy human brains can be infected with a fever.
D. Human brains have higher temperatures than bdies.
14. What is paragraph 5 mainly abut?
A. What result the research led t.
B. Hw the research was cnducted.
C. Hw the research differed frm the previus nes.
D. What influence the research had n the vlunteers.
15. What may the researchers wrk n next accrding t the last paragraph?
A. The drp f brain temperature at night.
B. The rise f brain temperature at dawn.
C. The relatinship between temperature changes and brain health.
D. The different causes f the daily variatin in brain temperatures.
