Seminle was far t accustmed t the business. Everyne sympathized with him depending n lng hurs, minimum wages, and ill­mannered custmers.Althugh struggling t pay his rent, he still went all ut t make thse lucky enugh t sit at his tables laugh. The day was ging quickly.
He was exhausted when he arrived t wrk the next day, but he went abut his daily duties, putting n a brave face as custmers cmplained abut the fd r questined the bill. Usually as he prepared t clse fr the night, a cuple f custmers wuld sit dwn and rder drinks. Mst f the crew had left by clsing time, but Seminle stayed t serve. Eventually, the last rund was rdered and he gave them the bill. The minimum tip was suggested n the receipt. “Tmrrw will be better，” murmured he.
But luck wasn't n his side. Evening appraching, a grup f teenagers stepped in. Thankfully, they were plite and respectful. Their cheerful behavir began t rub ff n him. As always, he did his best t make their dining experience a pleasant ne.
Once they finished their dishes, he placed the bill n the table, accmpanied with sme candies. They placed their ntes n the receipt and left smiling. When he returned t clear the table, he was shcked. The teenagers nly left a tip f $3, but their ttal bill was mre than $100. He'd gne abve and beynd serving the tasty dishes. Hw culd they be s rude?
Later that week, he struggled t let g f the awkward memries. He arrived at wrk and expected it t be like any ther, but there was smething left behind the desk fr him—a tw­page handwritten letter frm the teenagers with $18 attached, in which they explained they were unaware f the tipping practice due t it being their first time ut alne. Everything suddenly made sense.

Earthquakes cannt be frecast, but engineers can prepare fr them. Seismic islatin systems built int the bases f certain buildings in high­risk areas, use cmplex structures f cncrete, rubber and metal t reduce quake damage by absrbing the grund's hrizntal shaking.
But such adaptatins are expensive. Engineer Jian Zhang f the University f Califrnia, Ls Angeles, says building seismic islatin systems can increase cnstructin csts by up t 20 percent. Althugh these systems might save mre than they cst ver time, builders in sme regins may nt have the budget fr them at present.
A new seismic islatin methd uses the physics f rlling t create a lwer­cst alternative with readily available materials: recycled tennis balls. “Everyne plays tennis, and they dn't knw what t d with the tennis balls after each game，” says ETH Zurich seismic engineer Michalis Vassiliu.
Vassiliu's team based its methd n an early frm f seismic islatin that rlls a shaking building t a stp the way a skater in a half­pipe eventually cmes t rest. By separating a building frm the grund with a layer f spheres (球体), rlling islatin changes unstable hrizntal shaking int a gentle rcking mtin. This methd was used in 5，000­year­ld Peruvian pyramids, but tday builders favr expensive, standardized islatin systems.
Fr their mdern take n rlling seismic islatin, the researchers injected cncrete­like mixes int hundreds f balls that had lst their bunce. They built an inexpensive mdel cnsisting f fur filled tennis balls sandwiched between tw cncrete slabs (厚板), and they fund that it withstd earthquake shaking while supprting eight kilnewtns f frce per ball—abut twice what islatin systems might experience under ne­stry huses.
Zhang says that the wrk is wrthwhile and that such technlgy might serve an unmet need. But she ntes that the results are primary. Vassiliu agrees. Next steps will mean creating and testing a larger mdel with hundreds f tennis balls at a research center in earthquake­prne Cuba—an example f a place where such systems culd make islatin practicable in rdinary cnstructin.
5．Why d the engineers adpt recycled tennis balls?
A.T imprve the perfrmance f tennis balls.
B.T help deal with the tennis balls after matches.
C.T simplify the cmplex structures f buildings.
D.T cut the expense f seismic islatin buildings.
6．What effect culd the new methd achieve?
A．Recycling useless tennis balls.
B．Transfrming the shaking int gentle shaking.
C．Withstanding earthquake shaking.
D．Enabling a huse t supprt much mre frce.
7．Which f the fllwing best describes Zhang's attitude twards the new technlgy?
A．Dubtful. B．Unclear.
C．Objective. D．Apprving.
8．What is the main idea f the text?
A.Researchers are creating and testing mdels in Cuba.
B.Engineers are explring ways f earthquake frecasts.
C.A lw­cst design helps shaking buildings rll t a stp.
D.Recycled tennis balls culd prtect buildings frm disasters.
