Frd Mdel A，which develped in them a wrking rapprt(融洽) that served them well when
they participated as cntestants n the furth seasn f Leg Masters，a reality cmpetitin shw
n Fx，in the fall f 2023.
Edlavitch and Levine were amng 12 teams chsen frm ver 2，000 applicants t appear n
the shw，hsted by Leg Batman himself，Will Arnett.Over the curse f the shw，the teams
were tasked with creating riginal builds fr a chance t win $100，000 and the title f Leg
Master.T prepare fr it，Edlavitch says，“We spent a lt f time tgether figuring ut Leg
studied past seasns t see what the judges liked and respnded t.”
Fr Edlavitch，21，a student at the University f Virginia studying cmmunity－fcused
architecture，Leg bricks build a lifetime f “play”，an essential aspect f his apprach t
architecture.“Leg teaches yu a wrld perspective(视角)，which is that yu can take anything
apart and put it back tgether again in a way that makes it better，” he says，“and that，I think，
is what gt me int architecture.”
Aside frm his builds n Leg Masters，Edlavitch has created a 433－brick mdel f the
Richmnd skyline and a Richmnd city blck.Mrever， Edlavitch says he will ffer kids'
wrkshps that cmbine Leg and architecture in an apprachable way，intrducing the field t a
8new generatin thrugh “play”．
Accrding t Edlavitch，mst peple dn't think abut architecture very seriusly as a career
until later high schl r cllege，at which pint a lt f these kind f ld－fashined prgrams
are cnsidered t late t get started，and this leads t a less diverse and less creative field.He

The wrld's ceans, lakes and rivers are under increasing pressure frm climate change,
grwing demand, urbanizatin, and pllutin, threatening their ability t sustain life.
“Withut better data t understand the health f increasingly stressed waterways, the fight
t save these mst precius resurces will be ineffective，” said the c－funder f a technlgy
cmpany.“Virtually every waterway is plluted t an extent where the ecsystem just can't
balance back anymre，” he explains.
The cmpany is aiming t fill that infrmatin gap using fishlike rbts that cllect data frm
underwater envirnments.Pwered by batteries, they are designed t lk and swim like fish.The
standard versin is abut 1.3 meters lng and weighs 30 kilgrams and can be equipped with
cameras and sensrs t measure xygen, salinity (盐度) and PH levels.
The funder was mtivated t build the rbts after his eight－year－ld daughter learned
abut the cean crisis and asked him t help prtect the seas.He says it's imprtant that the rbts
can integrate int natural habitats—swimming amng ther creatures withut disturbing them and
mving arund bstacles smthly.
The cmpany has put its technlgy t use in different regins.It has perated in bth fresh
and saltwater, near dams, and in harbrs and fish farms, checking things like water quality and
fish health and cllecting data wherever they g.The CEO f the cmpany said its technlgy
culd be used in the regin fr water management, sustainable aquaculture (水产养殖) peratins,
and mnitring the health f crals.
Still, the cmpany has sme blcks t clear befre its fishlike rbts will be seen cruising (游
弋) thrugh the wrld's waterways.“We need capital t cmmercialize，” said the CEO, “but
there are very few peple wh are willing t actually supprt thse that are ding frntier
technlgies in the waterways.”The funder hpes mre funding will fllw.He said,“Investrs
shuld abslutely wake up.”
28．What is the purpse f the first tw paragraphs?
A．T intrduce the tpic f the text.
B．T state the imprtance f the text.
C．T explain the urgency f water resurces.
D．T weaken the seriusness f water pllutin.
29．Which is ne f the advantages f the rbts?
A．They can imitate ther fishes. B．They can easily catch children's eyes.
C．They wrk efficiently under the water. D．They can swim withut being recharged.
30．What is Paragraph 5 mainly abut?

Is cmprehensin the same whether a persn reads a text nscreen r n paper? And are
listening t and viewing cntent as effective as reading the written wrd when cvering the same
material? The answers t bth questins are ften “n”．The reasns relate t a variety f factrs,
including reduced cncentratin, an entertainment mindset (心态) and a tendency t multitask
while cnsuming digital cntent.
When reading texts f several hundred wrds r mre, learning is generally mre successful
when it's n paper than nscreen.A large amunt f research cnfirms this finding.The benefits f
print reading particularly shine_thrugh when experimenters mve frm psing simple tasks—like
identifying the main idea in a reading passage—t nes that require mental abstractin—such as
drawing inferences frm a text.
The differences between print and digital reading results are partly related t paper's physical
prperties.With paper, there is a literal laying n f hands, alng with the visual gegraphy f
distinct pages.Peple ften link their memry f what they've read t hw far int the bk it was
r where it was n the page.
But equally imprtant is the mental aspect.Reading researchers have prpsed a thery called
“shallwing hypthesis (假说)”．Accrding t this thery, peple apprach digital texts with a
mindset suited t scial media, which are ften nt s serius, and devte less mental effrt than
when they are reading print.
Audi (音 频 ) and vide can feel mre engaging than text, and s university teachers
increasingly turn t these technlgies—say, assigning an nline talk instead f an article by the
same persn.Hwever, psychlgists have demnstrated that when adults read news stries, they
remember mre f the cntent than if they listen t r view identical pieces.
Digital texts, audi and vide all have educatinal rles, especially when prviding resurces
nt available in print.Hwever, fr maximizing learning where mental fcus and reflectin are
called fr, educatrs shuldn't assume all media are the same, even when they cntain identical
wrds.
32．What des the underlined phrase “shine thrugh” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．Seem unlikely t last. B．Seem hard t explain.
C．Becme ready t use. D．Becme easy t ntice.
33．What des the shallwing hypthesis assume?
A．Readers treat digital texts lightly.
B．Digital texts are simpler t understand.
C.Peple select digital texts randmly.
D．Digital texts are suitable fr scial media.
34．Why are audi and vide increasingly used by university teachers?
A．They can hld students' attentin.
B．They are mre cnvenient t prepare.C．They help develp advanced skills.
D．They are mre infrmative than text.
35．What des the authr imply in the last paragraph?
A．Students shuld apply multiple learning techniques.
B．Teachers shuld prduce their wn teaching material.
C．Print texts cannt be entirely replaced in educatin.
D．Educatin utside the classrm cannt be ignred.
