At my first lessn in Chinese calligraphy(书法), my teacher tld me plainly: "Nw I will teach yu hw t write yur name. And t make it beautiful." I felt my breath catch. I was curius.
Grwing up in Singapre, I had an unusual relatinship with my Chinese name. My parents; are ethnically Chinese, s they asked frtune tellers t decide my name, aiming fr maximum luck. As a result, I ended up with a nnsense and embarrassing name: Chen Yiwen, meaning, rughly, "ld", "barley(薏米)" and "warm".
When I arrived in America fr cllege at 18, I put n an American accent and abandned my Chinese name. When I. mved t Hng Kng in 2021, after 14 years in the States, I decided t learn calligraphy. Why nt get back in tuch with my heritage? I thught.
In calligraphy, the idea is t cpy the ld masters' techniques, thereby refining yur wn. Every week, thugh, my teacher wuld give uncmfrtably n- the- nse assessments f my persn. "Yu need t be braver," he nce bserved. "Have cnfidence. Try t prduce a bld strke(笔画)." Fr years, I had prided myself n presenting an image f cnfidence, but my writing betrayed me.
I was trying t make sense f this practice. Yu must visualize the wrd as it is t be written and leave a trace f yurself in it. As a bdily practice, calligraphy culd g beynd its wn cultural restrictins. Culd it help me g beynd mine? My teacher nce said t me, "When yu lk at the wrd, yu see the bdy. Thugh a wrd n the page is tw- dimensinal, it cntains multitudes, cnveying the frce yu've applied, the energy f yur grip, the arch f yur spine." I had been learning calligraphy t get in tuch with my cultural rts, but what I was really seeking was a return t myself. Nw I have sensed that the pleasure ut f calligraphy allws me t knw myself mre fully.
During a recent lessn, my teacher pinted at the wrd I had just finished, telling me: "This wrd is much better. I can see the chices yu made, yur calculatins, yur flw. Trust yurself. This wrd is yurs." He might as well have said, "This wrd is yu"

"A beautiful field f flwers can be a rather nisy place. It's just that we can't hear the sunds." Scientists at Tel Aviv University have cnducted a six- year experiment, prving that plants make nise in certain stressful situatins.
Plants prduce a high frequency clicking sund, and when shrt f water, r damaged, the clicks becme far mre regular. They als made different sunds, depending n whether they were thirsty r injured. "Each plant and each type f stress is related t a specific sund," said Prfessr Lilach Hadany, wh led the research study.
Fcusing particularly n tmates, wheat and crn, the plants were placed in a sundprf(隔音的). rm and recrded by micrphnes. Sme plants were starved f water, thers cut, and a cntrl grup was left undamaged. The researchers used an algrithm(算法) t separate the nises, successfully telling the difference between the sunds depending n whether they were dry r cut. The algrithm did this in a greenhuse setting which included far mre surrunding sunds, but it was still able t recgnize the particular cries fr help f the plants.
On average, the human ear can hear sunds up t arund 20 kHz, while the sunds prduced by plants are in the 40-80 kHz regin, far beynd ur hearing. "The sunds made by plants can't be heard by humans but can prbably be heard by varius animals, such as bats, mice and insects," Hadany tells us. Thugh this has yet t be prven, it's pssible that these creatures use this infrmatin t chse which plants t eat.
A study led by Reda Hassanien f China Agricultural University . in Beijing years ag, als prved that plants reacted t sund waves, with sme plants greatly increasing their yield. While evidence shws that plants can react t sunds, there's n evidence tday that they can actually hear them.
9. What can we knw frm the six- year experiment?
A. Plants f different types make the same sund frequency.
B. Plants prduce mre regular sund in certain stressful situatins.
C. Plants make sunds with a much lwer frequency when stressed.
D. Plants make the sund f the same frequency at any time.
10. What is the algrithm used fr in the research?
A. T recrd the sunds.B. T cntrl the sunds.
C. T prduce the sunds.D. T identify the sunds.
11. What has been prven by scientists accrding t the passage?
A. Plants can hear each ther's cry fr help.
B. Animals can hear the sunds made by plants.
C. Plants can make sunds and respnd t sund waves.
D. All animals decide what t eat based n the sunds plants make.
12. Which f the fllwing is the best title f the text?

C. Plants React t Different Sund WavesD. Plants Talk, Especially When Stressed
