Art, as a frm f therapy(疗法), was first develped in the 20th century and has gained in ppularity in recent years. Self-expressin thrugh artistic creatin has treated value fr thse wh are seeking deeper understanding f themselves.
Frm my wn persnal experience, art and creativity has been ne f the few things that I can use t adjust and describe my inner mst feelings. It was invaluable t have a space where I culd lse myself even fr just a mment in the brushstrkes(笔触)r pencil lines f whatever I was creating. Grwing up, it was ne f the nly spaces where I culd actually express my wn emtins. Nw, even thugh art is my jb, I still use it t quite my mind and express myself.
Accrding t the British Assciatin f Art Therapists, art can be used as a mde f expressin and cmmunicatin. It is nt necessary t have any prir experience in art because art
is being used as a medium fr curing and is nt the main fcus. Art therapy can treat peple frm all age grups, frm children t the elderly. In additin, it can cure varius psychlgical prblems, including emtinal r behaviral prblems, learning r physical difficulties and s n.
It is imprtant t bear in mind that while current research des illustrate that art therapy imprves mental health, these studies has a small number f peple in them. Therefre, the cnclusin cannt be cnsidered definitive. Mre research is needed t find cnclusive(确凿的)

Twice a year fr the last 29 years, scientists have walked thrugh the same sectins f tallgrass prairie(大草原)in Kansas and recrded as many species as they culd find. The gal was t determine the impact f American bisn(野牛)n the ecsystem. Tallgrass prairies used t cver a huge part f Texas. Tday this habitat is at risk f disappearing, present in just fur percent f its frmer range.
Nw, decades f effrts and data shw a surprising result: When bisn were allwed t seek fd thrugh prairie, they increased plant species richness by 86 percent. “The big effect bisn had kncked us ut, ”says Zak Ratajczak, an eclgist at Kansas State University. “I dn't think anyne wuld have prgnsticated this ahead f time. ”252 earlier similar studies wrldwide shwed bisn's effects were relatively slight.
As fr reasns, Ratajczak has sme theries. Bisn tend t chse ne area, eating everything up there, while leaving anther area f the prairie untuched. They als g arund frming disturbances in the sil, frming hles. These are areas where they rll arund and shake ff their winter cats, and that creates little spts f unique types f sil features. The spts harden and cllect water after rain, fr example, creating wetlands, which allw mre plants t grw. By prmting different types f plant grwth, scientists believe bisn culd help their ecsystems becme mre adaptable t drughts.
Millins f bisn lived in the US in the mid 1800s, befre the gvernment killed the ppulatin, reducing their numbers t a few hundred by 1889. The findings suggest nging effrts t reintrduce bisn culd have enrmus and lng-term benefits. “That is a relatinship that was cut ff, ”says Jasn Baldes, a member f the Eastern Shshne Tribe. “As we restre this cnnectin, it favrs bisn. And bisn, by their presence, bst ur land. ”
28. What was the purpse f scientists walking thrugh the same sectins f tall grass prairie in Kansas?
A. T seek greater bidiversity.
B. T recrd many species as they culd find.
C. T research the reasn why this habitat is at risk.
D. T identify the influence f bisn n the ecsystem.
29. What des the underlined wrd “prgnsticated” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Cnsidered. B. Accepted C. Predicted D. Ignred.
30. Hw d bisn prmte plant species richness?
A. By keeping away frm prairies. B. By changing sil characteristics.
C. By prviding fd and habits. D. By helping plants survive drughts.
31. What des Baldes think f the reintrductin f bisn?

Fr using silk design t extend the shelf-lives(保质期)f main fd like leafy greens and meat, and t imprve crp seeding and grwth, Benedett Marelli is the winner f the first Bi Innvatin Institute &Science Prize fr Innvatin. Marelli's lab has prduced a fd security-enhancing technlgy frm his silk-based materials.
Sustainably feeding the wrld is an increasing challenge given factrs like a rising ppulatin and climate change;nvel technlgies will be crucial t maintaining fd security.
Even thugh the develpment f bimaterials like silk culd d much t settle related crises in fd availability, their applicatins in agricultural prducts have been largely verlked. “The research fcus f my lab aims t expand the current perceptin and scpe f bimaterials by demnstrating hw they can be engineered t cmbine with fd and plants, t ultimately bst fd security, ”said Marelli, assciate prfessr at the Massachusetts Institute f Technlgy. In his early research, Marelli had cnsidered the need t apply sustainable bimaterials technlgy t address decreasing fd resurces.
In an experiment, Marelli left the strawberries in the lab fr days. Upn returning a week later, he was surprised t find that the nn-silk treated strawberries had spiled while the cated, silk-treated nes had nt. It gave him the visin t explre ther links between sustainable materials and create new technlgies t extend the fd life cycle.
Marelli subsequently c-funded the cmpany Mri, which has develped a silk-based fd preservatin technlgy. Mri's silk-based slutin fr fds creates an all-natural prtective layer that dubles a prduct's shelf life and reduces plastic use when shipping. “Mri's technlgy may prvide an imprtant step in reducing the carbn ftprint f ur fd system by reducing bth fd and packaging waste, ultimately translating t lwer greenhuse gas emissins and a lwer impact n natural resurces, ”Marelli explained.
32. What d we knw abut Marelli frm Paragraph 1?
A. He built a plant t make silk. B. He advcated eating safe fd.
C. He invented an eatable plant. D. He wn a prize fr his inventin.
33. What is paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. The review f previus/studies. B. The cncerns f sme scientists.
C. The necessity f studying bimaterials. D. The applicatins f new materials.
34. What inspired Marelli t explre the silk-based technlgy?
A. An academic cnference. B. A fd waste survey.
C. An unexpected experimental discvery. D. A plant bservatin diary.
35. What is a majr advantage f Mri's silk-based slutin fr fds?
A. High-quality. B. Ec-friendly. C. Affrdable. D. Cnvenient.
