Peple are flying mre than ever. Frm shrt trips t traveling arund the glbe, many are n the mve. But finding the way at the airprts has never been easy in the US, due t crwding and a lt f tasks like checking in, taking care f baggage, screening and finding yur gate. It is ften difficult t get t where yu are ging. If yu are in a wheelchair r visually challenged, it's even harder.
The new terminal at the Kansas City Internatinal Airprt is designed t fix many f these shrtcmings.

Peple may typically think f memry as the recllectin f the past. Memry enables peple t learn frm past experiences and apply that knwledge in present circumstances. It is a vital part f ur identity. S is culture, the way f life specific t a grup f peple.
Cultural memry is the cnstructed understanding f the past that is passed frm ne generatin t the next thrugh text, ral traditins, mnuments and ther symbls. Cultural
memry is ften amassed in bjects, such as museums r histrical mnuments. T understand culture, humans access a mass f cultural symbls, such as bks. Artifacts (历史文物) f the past prvide insights int where we came frm. Libraries and the Internet keep a seemingly bundless
amunt f data n what it means t be part f a culture. Cultural memry is the lngest-lasting frm f memry.
Like all frms f memry, cultural memry has imprtant functins. Fr example, it makes the experiences a natin wns clear. It prvides us with an understanding f the past and the values f the grup t which we belng. Besides, it creates a frm f shared identity and a means fr cmmunicating this identity t new members. The mst pwerful frms f cultural memry may invlve memries f past disastrus experiences undergne by grups f victims. Fr example, in Russia, their rle in Wrld War Ⅱ — in which tens f millins f Russians were killed
— is still an imprtant part f mdern Russian identity. Because all grups have cultural memry, it can bring abut a spirit f resistance r survival amng threatened grups.
The main functin f cultural memry is nt t recall the past, whether it is gd r bad. Rather, it is t use knwledge f past experiences t avid making the same mistakes again and again. Aleida Assmann, a prfessr wh has wrked n memry thery since the 1960s, calls this
“remembering frward”. Cultural memry enables peple t adapt t their culture; it enables cultures t adapt t new circumstances by keeping traces (痕迹) f what wrked in the past.
What is the functin f the first paragraph?
Reprting a discvery f cultural memry.
Leading t the cncept f cultural memry.
Intrducing the imprtance f memry in identity.
Making a cnnectin between memry and culture.
Which can replace the underlined wrd “amassed” in paragraph 2?
A. Stred.B. Overlked.C. Evaluated.D. Created.
Russia is mentined in paragraph 3 t indicate .
the features f cultural memry
the frmatin f cultural memry
the rle f big events in Russian identity
the impact f cultural memry n identity
What is cultural memry mainly expected t d?
Pass previus wisdm dwn.
Keep traces f histry.

When I lked at my t-d list recently, I nticed that it was all ver the place. It’s hard t tell which tasks are a pririty. Sme are urgent and sme can wait. 36
Is there a mre effective way t write my t-d list? I’ve talked t time management experts.
Here are sme useful tips.
Fllw the tw-minute rule. If it takes less than tw minutes, just d it right then and there.
37Remember it and d it.
Break each task int smaller nes. 38 And what ends up happening is that we dn’t get them dne because we aren’t expressing them in a dable frm. Fr example, I want t retile my flr. That’s nt a t-d list item because there are t many steps packed int ne big gal. Instead, I shuld break the prject int smaller actin items like “pick tiles”.
39Take ne f yur existing t-d list tasks and ask “why” repeatedly. Fr example, why d I want t retile my flr? T make my apartment lk better. Why? Because a beautiful space makes me feel gd. Finally, yu get t smething that feels like a bedrck value f yur life. And if yu dn’t, that’s a sign that the task is unimprtant.
Decide what’s imprtant.
Add big gals t yur t-d list.
It’s nt wrth the time t write it dwn.
Chse t write yur t-d list n paper.
Sme are quick t cmplete, and thers take mre time.
Peple aren’t specific enugh when they write items n their t-d lists.
Lk at yur schedule and figure ut when yu can get yur task dne.
Try assigning a task t a time f day. 40 Fr example, yu might write yur nvel frm 11 a.m. t 2 p.m., g shpping frm 2 p.m. t 3：30 p.m. and d the cleaning frm 3:30 t 4 p.m. This methd can narrw dwn hw much yu can d in a day.

A lessn in trust
“Cme n, Tuck,” I said, patting the flr f the 4Runner ( 越野车). “Lad. Let’s g fr a walk.” Tuck danced nervusly at my feet, then sat and lked up at me with sad eyes. He wuldn’t jump in.
This was my first afternn with the three-year-ld brder cllie ( 德国牧羊犬) I was adpting, and it was time fr the daily hike.

reasn fr a dg’s behavir, I finally lifted the dg up and placed him in the back. “Lad,” I said, teaching him the cmmand. “Gd by.”
But every day, when it came time t lad fr ur hike, Tuck still didn’t trust my invitatin. At the end f the secnd week, I became impatient.
Actually, Tuck was a sweet dg and seemed t lve everyne. He had this byish enthusiasm tward strangers.
Days crept int a third week. I fund myself appreciating Tuck fr wh he was. One afternn, he came t the steps where I sat. He shyly lked at me, then walked ver and put ne big ft n my knee. At that very mment, I realized that he did shw affectin, in his wn way. But he still refused t lad fr ur hike.
