While diving in the Mediterranean Sea, scientists nticed smething curius: Every field seasn, grups f lcal fish called seabream wuld fllw them arund, stealing fd intended as rewards fr ther fish in their experiments.
The seabream seemed t recgnize the divers and even appeared t knw which individual humans were mst likely t be carrying fd. S, a team, led by Maelan Tmasek, a researcher at the Max Planck Institute f Animal Behavir, designed a study published in the jurnal Bilgy Letters.
In the first stage f the experiment, Katinka Sller spent 12 days training seabream t fllw her arund. At first, she wre bright red and fed the fish as she swam. But in repeated trials, she gradually shifted t wearing plainer. “Once I entered the water, it was a matter f secnds befre I wuld see them swimming twards me, seemingly cming ut f nwhere,” Sller says. But in the secnd stage, Tmasek jined Sller, wearing differently clred utfit. On the first day, the fish fllwed bth Tmasek and Sller equally. But the fish slwly realized that Tmasek never fed them, and mre f them started t fllw Sller.
“This is a cl result, because it shws that fish were nt simply fllwing Sller ut f habit r because ther fish were there,” says Tmasek. “They were aware f bth divers, learning that Sller prduced the reward at the end f the swim.”
When the divers wre identical utfit hwever, the fish were seemingly unable t tell them apart. The researchers say this is evidence that the fish were using visual signs, like the clr f wetsuits, t differentiate between the scientists. Senir authr Alex Jrdan, a researcher f the team, says that humans underestimate the abilities f fish. “It really shws that we have strng miscnceptins f fish capacity.”
Tmasek hpes the study culd make humans recnsider the way they treat fish. “It’s very human t nt want t care abut them, but they can care abut us; maybe it’s time that we can care abut them, t,” he says t the Guardian.
8. Why did Maelan Tmasek cnduct the study?
A. T demnstrate seabream can steal fd frm divers.
B. T test the visual ability f seabream t btain fd.
C. T train seabream t fllw divers arund in the sea.
D. T prve whether seabream can recgnize individuals.
9. Hw did the researchers get the result abut the seabream’s behavir?
A. By fllwing and analyzing the swimming patterns.
B. By bserving and recrding the fish’s respnses.
C. By carrying ut a labratry experiment.
D. By cnducting different training curses.
10. What can we learn frm Alex Jrdan abut fish?
A. Their intelligence is inaccurately assumed.
B. Their visins depend n the changing clrs.
C. They rely n visual signs t prtect themselves.
D. They are incapable f learning frm interactins.
11. Why des the authr mentin Tmasek’s wrds in the last paragraph?
A. T summarize the findings.
B. T call fr prper treatment f fish.
C. T describe the cnnectin between fish and humans.
D. T prvide scientific evidence abut fish intelligence.

In a significant step frward fr wearable health technlgy, researchers led by a team frm the Terasaki Institute fr Bimedical Innvatin (TIBD) have develped an innvative electrnic skin (E-Skin) capable f repairing itself within secnds after experiencing damage. This new technlgy has the ptential t transfrm persnal health mnitring systems acrss varius fields.
The study, published in Science Advances, reveals that this nvel E-Skin can recver ver 80% f its functinality within just 10 secnds f being damaged — a remarkable imprvement ver existing technlgies that typically require minutes r even hurs t heal (愈合).
“This self-healing technlgy represents a primary shift in wearable electrnics,” Yangzhi Zhu, an assistant prfessr at TIBI, said in a news statement. “By achieving healing time f just secnds rather than minutes r hurs, we’ve vercme ne f the majr barriers t practical, everyday use f electrnic skin devices.”
The advancements in the E-Skin include ultra-rapid self-healing capabilities, reliable perfrmance under extreme cnditins, integratin with advanced artificial intelligence and highly accurate health mnitring systems. These features enable real-time mnitring f tiredness and muscle strength assessment with exceptinal precisin, making it highly attractive fr a brad range f applicatins.
“What makes this breakthrugh particularly exciting is its immediate practical implicatins,” added Ali Khademhsseini, the CEO f TIBI. “We’ve created a technlgy that nt nly survives daily wear and tear but cntinues t prvide accurate health mnitring even in challenging cnditins like underwater envirnments. This durability (耐用性) pens up entirely new pssibilities fr persnal health mnitring.” This self-healing capability addresses a cmmn limitatin in current wearable technlgies, which ften fail when damaged and significantly hinder their practical applicatin.
The research team envisins numerus applicatins fr their technlgy, ranging frm mnitring athletic perfrmance t aiding in medical recvery and general health tracking, prmising t make significant cntributins t bth sprts and health care industries.
12. What makes the nvel E-Skin stand ut?
A. Its appearance.B. Its attractive design.
C. Its defense against damage.D. Its self-recvery ability.
13. What aspect f the technlgy is paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. The backgrund.B. The system.
C. The applicatins.D. The features.
14. Which f the fllwing can replace the underlined wrd “hinder” in paragraph 5?
A. Blck.B. Quit.C. Braden.D. Prmte.
15. What is the researchers’ attitude twards the applicatins f the technlgy?
A. Disapprving.B. Cautius.C. Optimistic.D. Critical.

When I was in the third grade, I was picked t be the princess in the schl play, and fr weeks my mther painstakingly practiced my lines with me. But n matter hw easily I delivered them at hme, as sn as I stepped nstage, every wrd disappeared frm my head.
Finally, my teacher tk me aside. She explained that she had written a part f a narratr (叙述者) t the play, and asked me t switch rles. Her wrds, kindly delivered, still upsetting, especially when I saw my part g t anther girl.
I didn’t tell my mther what had happened when I went hme fr lunch that day. But she sensed my unease, and instead f suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted t walk in the yard.
It was a lvely spring day and the rse vine (藤蔓) was turning green. Under the huge trees, we culd see yellw dandelins (蒲公英) thrugh the grass in bunches, as if a painter had tuched ur landscape with spts f gld. I watched my mther casually bend dwn by ne f the dandelins. “I think I’m ging t dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling a blssm up by its rts. “Frm nw n, we’ll have nly rses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelins,” I prtested. “All flwers are beautiful — even dandelins.” My mther lked at me seriusly. “Yes, every flwer gives pleasure in its wn way, desn’t it?” She asked thughtfully. I ndded, pleased that I had wn her ver. “And that is true f peple t,” she added. “Nt everyne can be a princess, but there is n shame in that.”
Relieved that she had guessed my pain, I started t cry as I tld her what had happened. She listened and gave me a cmfrting smile.
“But yu will be a beautiful narratr,” she said, reminding me f hw much I lved t read stries alud t her. “The narratr’s part is every bit as imprtant as the part f a princess.”

【答案】One pssible versin:
Over the next few weeks, with her cnstant encuragement, I learned t take pride in the rle. My mther helped me practice my narratin with the same care she had nce used fr the princess lines. She reminded me that the narratr guides the whle stry and helps everyne understand the play better. At first, I still felt disappinted, but as I rehearsed mre, I began t enjy the rhythm f the wrds and the way my vice culd bring the stry t life. My teacher was impressed with my imprvement and even praised my clear and emtinal delivery. On the day f the play, I std behind the curtain, heart punding, but nt with fear — this time, I was excited. When the lights came n and my vice filled the hall, I knew I had fund my place in the stry.
After the play, I rushed hme and fund my mther waiting fr me by the dandelins. With tears in my eyes, I tld her hw the audience had clapped fr me and hw even the teacher had said I was the best narratr they’d ever had. She hugged me tightly and said, “Just like the dandelins, yu’ve shwn that every flwer has its wn beauty.” Lking at the glden blssms in the grass, I finally understd what she meant. I didn’t need t be a princess t shine. That spring day, standing beside her, I realized that being true t myself and ding my best was the mst imprtant thing f all.
