But, when they can see the character clsely in the shw, it can be a surprise.”
“My dream nw is t d mre cultural exchanges and maybe create a shw where Chinese Peking Opera and Swedish actrs perfrm tgether.” Piltti says.

The scial media platfrm Instagram nce made headlines fr limiting likes in an effrt t reduce the cmparisns and hurt feelings resulting frm attaching ppularity t sharing cntent. But d these effrts reslve mental health issues, r are they simply applying a band-aid t a wund?
It’s a small step in the right directin, says Jacqueline Sperling, a psychlgist wh wrks with yuth wh experience anxiety disrders. “Even if yu remve the likes, there cntinue t be pprtunities fr cmparisns and feedback. Peple still can cmpare themselves t thers, and peple still can pst cmments.”
Scial platfrms are designed t be addictive and are related t anxiety, depressin, and even physical ailments(小病).This puts a large amunt f the ppulatin at an increased risk f feeling anxius, depressed, r ill ver their scial media use. But what makes users cme back fr mre even when it can literally make them feel sick?
“When the utcme is unpredictable, the behavir is mre likely t repeat. Think f a slt machine(老虎机): if game players knew they were never ging t get mney by playing the game, then they never wuld play,” says Sperling. “The idea f a ptential future reward keeps the machines in use. The same ges fr scial media sites. One des nt knw hw many likes a picture will get, wh will like the picture, and when the picture will receive likes. The unknwn utcme and the pssibility f a desired utcme can keep users engaged with the sites.”
FOMO-fear f missing ut - als impacts the yuth greatly. Teenagers hpe t keep track f friends’ activities. If everyne else is using scial media sites, and if yu dn’t jin in, there’s cncern that yu’ll miss chats, jkes, cnnectins, r invitatins. Missing experiences can create anxiety and depressin. When peple lk nline and see they’re excluded frm an activity, it can affect thughts and feelings, and can affect them physically.
In additin t limiting likes, as Instagram has dne, Sperling suggests scial platfrms cnsider decreasing mass sharing. They might functin mre as messaging services by highlighting ne-n-ne cmmunicatins. Regardless f hw likely scial media giants are t change their ways, thugh, individuals can take cntrl f their wn behavir.
8. What des Sperling think f Instagram’s measure?
A. It’s strict.B. It’s limited.C. It’s bjective.D. It’s cnservative.
9. What is prbably the majr reasn fr scial media addictin?
A. Need fr self-expressin.
B. Desire fr cnstant recgnitin.
C. Expectatin f pssible surprises.
D. lack f interest in real-life activities.
10. What des Sperling advise scial platfrms t d in the last paragraph?
A. Restrict their service scales.
B. Decrease ne-n-ne interactins
C. Limit the time users spend n them.
D. Shift the fcus frm sharing t messaging.
11. What might the authr cntinue talking abut?
A. Redesign f scial media platfrms.B. Changes made by scial media giants.
C. Strategies fr individuals’ self-cntrl.D. Impact f scial media n mental health.

Science fictin stries have imagined future peple living in undergrund cities n Mars, in asterids, and in space statins far frm the sun. But if humans are ever t survive in any f thse tugh envirnments, they will need ways t grw fd using limited resurces-and phtsynthesis (光合作用), the wildly successful yet energy-inefficient prcess by which plants turn sunlight int sugar, might nt cut it.
Nw, sme scientists are wndering whether it’s pssible t prduce fd mre efficiently by skipping phtsynthesis altgether, and grwing plants in the dark.
The idea sunds as science fictinal as cities n Mars. But a team f researchers has taken a first step tward realizing it with a study published in Nature Fd in June. The research shws it is pssible t grw algae (藻类), edible yeast (食用酵母), and mushrm-prducing fungi (真菌) in the dark by supplying them with a carbn-based chemical that didn’t riginate frm plants, but instead was manufactured using slar electricity. That is, this methd replaced bilgical phtsynthesis with a partly artificial prcess fr turning sunlight int fd. Their prcess is a versin f artificial phtsynthesis, a term that has been arund fr years and includes varius appraches t transfrming sunlight, water, and CO2 int liquid fuels and ther chemicals.
The researchers say their wrk represents the first time an artificial phtsynthesis system has been paired with an attempt t grw cmmn fd-prducing rganisms. The scientists are hpeful that this methd culd unlck new ways t prduce fd using less physical space and energy than traditinal agriculture — including, perhaps, crps that can grw in the dark.
While ther experts are skeptical that it will ever be pssible t redesign plant bilgy s thrughly, they are excited by the technlgy the researchers have invented and the team’s ut-f-the-bx idea abut hw t make fd prductin mre efficient.
Lynn Rthschild, a senir research scientist at NASA’s Ames Research Center, says it’s wrth keeping an pen mind abut hw any effrts t redesign a fundamental bilgical prcess like phtsynthesis culd be applied, in space r n Earth: “The payff may be smething we haven’t imagined yet.”
12. Hw culd scientists grw algae in the dark accrding t the text?
A. By giving them a chemical frm plants.
B. By giving them a chemical prduced by slar electricity.
C. By giving them physical space and energy.
D. By giving them crps that grw in the dark.
13. Which f the fllwing best describes artificial phtsynthesis”?
A. It uses sunlight, water, and CO2 inefficiently.B. It has been very successful.
C. It helps t find new ways f prducing fd.D. The term has just been created.
14. What des the underlined wrd “ut-f-the-bx” mean in paragraph 5?
A. Taken ut frm the bx.B. Usable immediately.
C. Mysterius.D. Very creative.
15. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Hw t grw fungi in the dark?B. What is artificial phtsynthesis?
C. Can fd crps grw in the dark?D. Hw t turn sunlight int fd?

47. Last mnth, my best friend Lily and I made an appintment t vlunteer at the lcal animal shelter every weekend. We bth adred animals and had dreamed f pening ur wn rescue center smeday. Our rutine was simple: I’d clean kennels (狗舍) while Lily scialized the cats. But as midterm exams apprached, my anxiety snwballed began skipping shifts, inventing excuses like “family emergencies” r “study sessins”. Lily never questined me, but her disappinted sighs cut deeper than any accusatin.
One rainy Saturday, the shelter’s directr called me directly. Lily’s dwn with a cld, she said, “and we’ve gt sme abandned dgs arriving in an hur. Can yu cme?” My hands gt sweaty, I’d lied abut studying that very mrning, claiming I needed t g ver chemistry. Nw, faced with a chice between my lie and the dgs, I frze. “ have a fever,” I tripped ver my wrds. “I can’t make it.” The directr’s silence felt like a hit.
That night, guilt bthered me as I went thrugh Lily’s Instagram ( 照片墙). There she was wrapped in a blanket, surrunded by eight tiny glden retrievers (寻回犬). The illustratin read: Even when I’m sick, these angels keep me ging. Belw it was cmments praising her devtin. My chest tightened. Scrlling further, I saw Lily’s pst frm last night: “Stuffy nse, but Mm’s chicken sup saved the day!”
The next day, I dragged myself t the shelter. Thrugh the windw, I saw Lily kneeling in frnt f a kennel, cleaning patiently. Her cughs rang ut thrugh the curtyard. I pushed pen the dr, my thrat tightening, “Lily...” She tuned, her face pale but eyes bright. Yu said yu were sick, she whispered. But here yu are, perfectly fine. I pened my muth t explain, but the wrds died as a tremble attacked her bdy.
