A Gen Z train attendant in China has gained widespread praise fr his creative apprach t keeping children
calm and entertained during lng train rides — by handing ut test papers and stickers (贴画).
Qin Yunha, wh wrks n the G1546 high-speed train frm Nanning East t Hangzhu West,brings alng a
plastic bag filled with simple wrksheets and clrful reward stickers every time he’s n duty. His idea is simple
but effective: children wh becme nisy during the jurney are gently handed a test paper, and upn cmpleting it,
are rewarded with stickers. Meanwhile, children wh remain quiet thrughut the ride are given stickers directly as
a frm f psitive reinfrcement (强 化 ). The idea, which started during the summer travel rush, has received
verwhelming supprt frm parents and netizens. Many praised it fr turning a ptentially nisy carriage (车厢)
int a peaceful envirnment, while als giving children smething meaningful t d during the jurney.
The inspiratin came frm bserving parents wh brught hmewrk fr their children n bard. Wanting t
help thse wh hadn’t cme prepared, Qin began printing ut simple exercises t share.
This lw-cst but thughtful slutin has been described as a “magical fix”, as it eases pressure n parents,
entertains yung passengers, and helps maintain rder in a public space. It’s als seen as a reflectin f grwing
human-centered innvatin in public service.

Qin’s fellw railway staff have als adpted varius child-friendly practices. Sme bring picture bks r
small tys, thers create “kids’ kits” with puzzles and games. On certain trains, a children’s activity area has even
been set up in the dining car. Railway staff als encurage parents t prepare entertainment in advance — such as
dwnlading cartns r bringing educatinal games — t help children enjy the ride calmly and cnstructively.
Balancing children’s natural liveliness with public rder is n easy task. But initiatives like this shw that
thughtful, human-centered slutins can g a lng way tward creating mre harmnius public spaces.

Pause fr a mment and gaze int the eyes f yur dg. D yu feel verwhelmed by hw cute they are? Or,
perhaps, a desire t squeeze (揉捏) them?
Nw think abut yur habits. D yu send them t daycare, dress them up in clthes, and bring them n
vacatins? D yu speak t them like a baby?
If s, yu’re nt alne — after all, research shws ur brains essentially respnd in the same way t pet dgs
as they d t human children. Our brains weren’t always wired this way, but as we dmesticated (驯化) dgs, they
develped human-like scial and cgnitive abilities. They started t act and even lk like babies — and ur
brains began t view them as such.
That’s why Zachary Silver, the directr f the Canine Cgnitin Lab at Occidental Cllege, isn’t at all

surprised peple feel s strngly abut their fur-legged friends — in fact, t him, it wuld be dd if they didn’t.
“The dgs f tday have been carefully selected ver thusands f years t be kind and affectinate (温顺亲人的).”
he says. S, if yu’ve ever been laughed at fr treating yur dg like yur actual human child, just knw there are
20,000 t 40,000 years f evlutin causing yu t behave this way.
Here’s hw this pwerful neurbilgical (神经生物学的) respnse makes us lve, trust, and care fr ur
dgs. Yur brain really des view yur dg as a child.
Alisn LaCss, a mther f three, says the mment she gave birth t her kids, she felt an verwhelming desire
t lve them and keep them safe. LaCss’s behavir isn’t abnrmal-and a brain imaging study cnducted in 2014
prvides sme imprtant clues as t why. T figure ut what causes peple t feel s intensely abut their dgs,
researchers frm Harvard University invited a small grup f mthers wh had least ne child between the ages f
2 t 10 and a dg they had wned fr at least tw years. The mms went int MRI machines and lked at varius
images f dgs and kids-sme their wn, and sme nt.
The researchers fund a significant verlap between the emtinal experience f the mther-child relatinship
and the mther-dg relatinship. The amygdala, a brain area that drives bnd frmatin and reward, lit up when the
wmen lked at pictures f their child and their dg.
8. Why des the authr say “yu’re nt alne” in Paragraph 3?
A. Because many peple have dgs as pets.

D. Because dgs are the mst faithful friends f humans.
9. What makes human brain react in the same way t children and dgs?
A. Dgs’ wild nature. B. Dgs’ human-like characters.

“Yu knw when yu walk past a parked car n a ht day and feel the heat it gives ff ?” says Márcia Matias
at the University f Lisbn in Prtugal. “That’s real! It’s nt yur imaginatin.”
Dark-clured cars can make a measurable difference n nearby air temperature, as they absrb (吸收) and
emit (排放) mre heat than lighter vehicles when sitting n the street r in a parking lt. The cllective impact frm
hundreds f thusands r millins f cars in cities culd significantly influence urban heat island effects, and even
increase heat stress fr passers-by during sunny days.
Matias and her clleagues measured the air temperature arund tw cars — ne black and ne white —
parked utside fr mre than 5 hurs during daylight. Their measurements shwed the black car raised the
surrunding air temperature by as much as 3.8°C cmpared t the nearby asphalt (沥青) under a clear and sunny
summer sky with temperatures f 36°C. Meanwhile, the white car had much smaller impacts n the surrunding air
temperature.
The reasn fr such temperature differences is white vehicle paint reflects between 75 and 85 percent f
incming sunlight, while black paint absrbs mst incming sunlight, reflecting just 5 t 10 percent. A car’s thin
dark skin can heat up quickly under strng sunlight, unlike even very dark asphalt that is thicker and warms mre
slwly. “Nw picture thusands f cars parked acrss a city, each ne acting like a little heat surce,” says Matias.
“Their clur can actually shift hw ht the streets feel.”
The researchers calculated repainting parked cars frm dark t lighter clurs culd create cler surfaces and
lwer near-surface air temperatures n sunny, lw wind days. Using the city f Lisbn as an example, the change
culd effectively raise street-level reflectance (反射率) f incming sunlight frm just 20 percent t nearly 40
percent in areas where parked cars cver mre than 10 percent f the rad.
“Making use f light-clured vehicles t relieve urban heat is particularly nvel”, says Sarah Berk at the
University f Nrth Carlina. Previus studies have fcused n imprving rfs and pavement t reflect mre
sunlight.
12. Why d dark cars impact nearby air temperature mre greatly?
A. Because they are in larger numbers.
B. Because mre heat is trapped by them.
C. Because mre sunlight is reflected by them.
D. Because they have been parked fr lnger time.
第 7页/共 13页
13. Hw did Matias cnduct the research?
A. By analyzing the previus data.
B. By changing the incming sunlight.
C. By tracking the change in temperature.
D. By cmparing the thickness f car paint.
14. Which statement will the researchers prbably agree with?
A. Dark asphalt heats up faster than dark cars.
B. Lighter paint n cars can cl dwn the streets.
C. Vehicle clr has little impact n urban temperatures.
D. The reflectance f sunlight is mainly cntrlled by building materials.
15. What’s Sarah Berk’s attitude twards Matias’s research?
A. Psitive. B. Critical. C. Wrried. D. Uninterested.
