Builders use the salt frm the 4,633squaremile flat t make the bricks, and glue them tgether with a paste f wet salt that hardens when it dries.

Our nn-prfit rganizatin had just received a large dnatin f clthing. As three f us walked hme fr dinner, we saw a wman begging by the bridge. She was ld and had n legs. She shivered in her thin sari(纱巾), which ffered little prtectin frm the cld wind. Her hunger frced her t beg. My friends and I lked at each ther: here was a perfect pprtunity, but first it was necessary t d a little bit f research.
We went up t the wman t hear her stry. She spke very little due t her pr health and fear, but we learned enugh. She lived alne in her small hme. She had n ne t lk after her and ate whatever peple gave her. The desire t help her grew strnger. After speaking t her, we headed back t get smething t keep her warm. Finding the perfect sweater, we set ut again t see the wman. This time, the fear was replaced by distrust as we presented her with the sweater.
"Are yu rbbers?" she asked. "Yu came here befre and are back s suddenly with clthes." I was surprised by her principles. Even in her state, she did nt want t wear anything that was stlen and gained thrugh ill means.
"N, we are ut ding service wrk." Her shulders relaxed a bit. I then helped her put the sweater n and said, "Please dn't sell the sweater." "I swear, I wn't," she said.
A week later, I was ut walking with my mther t get sme fd when I saw the wman again. This time the picture was a little different. She was still begging, but with the gray sweater wrapped arund her bdy and a smile n her face when she saw us. I guarantee that the smile n my face was bigger.

It's hard fr dctrs t d a thrugh eye exam n small children. But a new smartphne app takes advantage f parents' fndness fr taking pictures f their children t lk fr signs that a child might be develping an eye disease.
The app is the result f a father's five-year quest t find a way t catch the earliest signs f eye diseases, and prevent lss f visin. Five years ag, dctrs diagnsed(诊断) Nah Shaw's retinblastma- a rare type f eye cancer-when he was 4 mnths ld. T make the diagnsis, the dctrs shined a light int Nah's eye, and gt a pale reflectin frm the back f the eyeball, an indicatin that there was smething wrng there. Nah's father Bryan, a scientist, wndered if he culd see that same pale reflectin in pictures f his baby sn. Sure enugh, he saw the reflectin, which dctrs call "white eye", in a picture taken right after Nah was brn.
Then Bryan decided t create an app that culd scan phts fr signs f this reflectin. Nw, that app exists, called CRADLE. T test the app, Bryan and his clleagues analyzed mre than 50,000 pictures taken f 40 children. Half had n eye disease and half had. "On average, the app detected 'white eye 'in pictures cllected 1.3 years befre diagnsis," says Bryan.
The app isn't perfect. It smetimes misses "white eye" when it's there, and smetimes says it's there when it's nt. That latter cnditin is a prblem. Even thugh the s-called false psitive ccurs less than 1% f the time, that's nt gd enugh. There are abut 4 millin children brn in the U.S. each year. A 1% false psitive rate wuld mean tens f thusands f children shwing up at the dctr unnecessarily.
Still, Bryan is upbeat abut the prmise f the app. "This is exciting new technlgy, and this is hw I think we're ging t g abut screening fr a number f diseases in the future,” he says.
What inspired Bryan t create CRADLE?
His sn’s diagnsis B. His family’s phts
His hbby f taking pictures D. His wrking experience as a scientist.
What d we knw abut “white eye”?
It is a sign f sme eye diseases.
It hardly causes serius lss f visin.
It refers t the white part f an eyeball.
It ccurs when n light is reflected frm the eye.
Why is a 1% false psitive rate still a prblem?
It may delay the treatment f a patient.
It may badly affect the future f the app.
It may raise serius dubts abut dctrs.
It may cause a waste f medical resurces.
Which f the fllwing can best replace the underlined wrd “upbeat” in the last paragraph?
Curius B. Cautius C. Optimistic D. Wrried
D
What if we had the pwer t cntrl time, instead f mving frm the past t the present t the future? What if we culd jump, lp and travel thrugh time in a machine? What if we culd g wherever and whenever we pleased?
This ability wuld allw us t witness histric wnders, change decisins and see peple frm the past. We culd right wrngs and stp wars frm starting.
The mysterius puzzle f time has kept peple debating its nature fr hundreds f years. Science fictin writers have turned it int imaginative stries. Sme scientists have even attempted t explain it using math. This math tries t make the dream f time travel cme true.
The scientist Albert Einstein said that time and space are ne thing. He called it "spacetime." Einstein said that there are three dimensins in space: height, width and depth. A scientist named Hermann Minkwski added time as a furth dimensin.
Einstein intrduced tw ideas that have led t theries abut the pssibility f time travel. The first is relativity. The idea f relativity is that the frce f gravity causes space t bend, which causes time t twist. The secnd idea fcuses n special relativity.The idea is that a traveler mving super-fast thrugh flat spacetime will enter the future. Einstein cnsidered time "relative" because it is measured based n where we are n Earth r in space.
Stephen Hawking is a famus scientist. He believes that a time machine will never be built. If it were pssible, he thinks we wuld already knw. If a time machine culd be built, hw cme n ne frm the future has invaded us?
The first science fictin stry with this theme is The Clck That Went Backward by Edward P. Mitchell, which was published in 1881. Since then, thusands f bks, films and televisin shws have explred the idea f time travel, in which sme tls such as phnes, watches, phtgraphs and ld bks take travelers backward and frward.
Will time travel ever happen? Wh knws? Mst imprtant is t keep yur eyes pen and have a sense f wnder.
32. What is the authr's purpse f writing the first paragraph?
A. T shw time and space are cnnected.
B. T shw peple's interest in time travel.
C. T draw readers' attentin t time travel.
D. T make peple believe time travel is pssible.
33. Which f the fllwing statement culd Einstein agree with?
A. Time travel is pssible in the future.
B. Peple can't mve faster than light.
C. Time travel is against scientific rules.
D. Spacetime is nt a real thing in thery.
34. What is the last but ne paragraph mainly abut?
A. The first science fictin stry. B. Sme tls used in time travel.
C. Edward P. Mitchell, the pineer. D. Different wrks abut time travel.
35. What is the writer's attitude tward time travel?
A. cautius B. pessimistic C. skeptical D. ptimistic
