A man sat at a metr statin in Washingtn D.C. and started t play the vilin; it was a cld January mrning. He played six pieces fr abut 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hur, 1,100 peple went thrugh the statin, mst f them n their way t wrk.
Three minutes went by, and a middle-aged man nticed there was musician playing. A few minutes later, smene leaned against the wall t listen t him. They stpped fr a few secnds, and then hurried up t meet their schedule.
The ne wh paid the mst attentin was a 3-year-ld by. His mther fllwed him alng, hurried, but the kid stpped t lk at the vilinist. Finally, the mther pushed hard, and the child cntinued t walk, turning his head all the time. This was repeated by several ther children. All the parents, withut exceptin, frced them t mve n.
In the 45 minutes the musician played, nly 6 peple stpped and stayed fr a while. Abut 20 gave him mney but cntinued t walk at their nrmal pace. He cllected 32 dllars. When he finished playing and silence tk ver, n ne nticed it. N ne applauded (鼓掌), nr was there any recgnitin.
N ne knew this, but the vilinist was Jshua Bell, ne f the mst talented musicians in the wrld. He had just played ne f the mst beautiful pieces ever written, n a vilin wrth 3.5 millin dllars.
Tw days befre his playing in the subway, Jshua Bell sld ut at a theatre in Bstn where the seats averaged 100 dllars.

Scientists at the UCL Institute fr Neurlgy have develped new tls, based n AI language mdels, that can characterize subtle signatures in the speech f patients diagnsed with schizphrenia (精神分裂症). The research, published in PNAS, aims t understand hw the autmated analysis f language culd help dctrs and scientists diagnse and assess psychiatric (病) cnditins.
Currently, psychiatric diagnsis is based almst entirely n talking with patients and thse clse t them, with nly a minimal rle fr tests such as bld tests and brain scans. Hwever, this lack f precisin prevents a richer understanding f the causes f mental illness and the mnitring f treatment.
The researchers asked 26 participants with schizphrenia and 26 cntrl participants t cmplete tw verbal fluency tasks, where they were asked t name as many wrds as they culd either belnging t the categry “animals” r starting with the letter “p” in five minutes. T analyze the answers given by participants, the team used an AI language mdel t represent the meaning f wrds in a similar way t humans. They tested whether the wrds peple naturally recalled culd be predicted by the AI mdel, and whether this predictability was reduced in patients with schizphrenia.
They fund that the answers given by cntrl participants were indeed mre predictable by the AI mdel than thse generated by peple with schizphrenia and that this difference was largest in patients with mre severe symptms. The researchers think that this difference might have t d with the way the brain learns relatinships between memries and ideas, and stres this infrmatin in s called “cgnitive maps”.
The team nw plan t use this technlgy in a larger sample f patients, acrss mre diverse speech setting, t test whether it might prve useful in the clinic. Lead authr, Dr. Matthew Nur, said: “There is enrmus interest in using AI language mdels in medicine. If these tls prve safe, I expect they will begin t be used in the clinic within the next decade.”
28. What is the disadvantage f current psychiatric diagnsis?
A. It is greatly related t bld tests.B. It mstly relies n talking with patients.
C. It refers t the wrds f patients’ family.D. It can’t cmprehend schizphrenia deeply.
29. What is paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. The prcess f the research.B. The tasks f the participants.
C. The perfrmance f researchers.D. The predictability f AI language mdels
30. What is Dr Matthew Nur’s attitude tward AI language mdels?
A. Unclear.B. Psitive.C. Dubtful.D. Negative.
31. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. AI language new tls used in the clinic.B. AI language tls develped by scientists.
C. AI language mdels treating schizphrenia.D. AI language mdels diagnsing schizphrenia.

The richness f the natural wrld aren’t spread evenly acrss the glbe. Places like the trpical Andes (安第斯山脉) in Suth America are packed with unique species, many fund n place else n Earth. Previusly, the main explanatin fr the bilgical richness cncentrated in places like the Amazn Basin was that they were such places where new species evlved at a faster rate than ther parts f the wrld. But nw, new research n bird evlutin may turn that assumptin n its head, instead sprting the idea that areas with fewer species actually tend t prduce new species faster.
The researchers say the bidiversity cld spts are generally fund in harsher (更严酷的) envirnments featuring freeing, dry and unstable cnditins. Thugh the researchers have fund these lcatins with few bird species tend t prduce new nes at high rates, they fail t accumulate many species because the unstable cnditins frequently make the new life frms die ut.
The mre well-knwn ht spts, by cntrast, have accumulated their large numbers f species by being warm, hspitable and relatively stable. Indeed, the researchers have fund that the cuntless bird species that call the Amazn hme tend t be lder in evlutinary terms. That actually accunts fr higher species richness there.
“Our results suggest that these ht spts fr bidiversity are nt ht spts fr the evlutin f new species,” says Elizabeth Derryberry, an evlutinary bilgist at the University f Tennessee. “New species d frm in places like the Amazn, just nt as frequently as in mre extreme envirnments.”
The researchers managed t cllect 1,940 samples (样本) representing 1,287 f the 1,306 bird species frm Suth America. Their analysis revealed that the best predictr f whether an area wuld prduce new species at a high rate was hw many species lived there, rather than climate r gegraphic features like muntains. Species-rich areas tended t prduce new species mre slwly.
On a practical level, the study’s findings add new urgency fr stpping destrying ecsystems that may lk dry and bare, because they may actually be nature’s hthuses fr the evlutin f new species.
32. What is the previus explanatin fr bidiversity in the Amazn Basin?
A. Its species’ strng survival abilities.B. The immigratin f freign species.
C. The rapid evlutin f new species.D. Its vast living space fr new species.
33. Why d the bird species in the Amazn tend t be lder?
A. It cnstantly attracts new species t cme.B. There’s less cmpetitin and mre chances.
C It had extreme envirnments a lng time ag.D. The envirnment there is stable and favrable.
34. Accrding t the study’s findings, what shuld we d?
A. Cnserve harsh ecsystems.B. Develp species-rich envirnments.
C. Help species in ht areas live lnger.D. Limit species in bidiversity cld spts.
35. What is the main idea f the text?
A. Bird species prefer t live in harsher ecsystems.
B. Species-pr areas may prduce new species faster.
C. Trpical areas are hme t large numbers f species,
D. Ht areas are mre attractive t species than cld areas.
