And sme f his wrk helped define a generatin．Take “The Dick Van Dyke Shw”; it ran fr five years n CBS, and it was such a hit that they’re bringing it back．This week, CBS aired a tw-hur tribute（致敬）, “Dick Van Dyke,98 Years f Magic”, and fr the ccasin, they recreated the riginal Dick Van Dyke Shw” set, dwn t that well-knwn sfa．
Early in his career Van Dyke was quted as saying he nly wanted t make films his children culd watch．That gt the attentin f Walt Disney, wh prmptly cast him in “Mary Pppins”．And his next few films were equally family-friendly, like “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang,” which happened t have been c-written by James Bnd creatr Ian Fleming．Frm then n, Van Dyke was almst always assigned t play the gd guy, thugh he claims t have missed ut n a chice part: “Yeah, I culd have been James Bnd．When Sean Cnnery left, the prducer said, ‘Wuld yu like t be the next Bnd?’ I said, ‘Have yu heard my British accent?’ That’s a true stry!”
It seems that in shw biz the true legends never stp．In an interview frm 2017 with his friends, Van Dyke described what it was like hitting 90:“Peple are mre afraid f aging than they are f death these days．And I want t say that remain yung in heart and there’s a lt f gd living t d.”

The greatest irny (讽刺) f the wrld-wide celebratins held in 2012 t hnur the 200th anniversary f the first editin f the Grimms’ Hausmärchen invlves the discvery that mst peple really dn’t knw the riginal Grimms’ tales published in 1812.
If we return t take a clser lk at the first editin, we’ll find it was this editin that inspired schlars f flk culture thrughut Eurpe t gather tales frm the ral traditin and preserve them fr future generatins.
When the Grimms Jacb and Wilhelm began cllecting all kinds f flk tales and sngs at the beginning f the 19th century, what attracted them t cncentrate n ld German literature was a belief that the mst natural and pure frms f culture were t be lcated in the past, while mdern literature, even thugh it might be remarkably rich, was artificial and thus culd nt express the genuine quality f flk culture that riginated naturally frm peple’s experiences and bund the peple tgether. Bradly speaking, the Grimms sught t cllect and preserve ancient things cnsisting f tales, sngs, and dcuments. They intended t demnstrate hw natural language, riginating frm the needs, custms f the cmmn peple, created genuine bnds and helped frm civilized cmmunities.
Turning t the first editin a reader might ntice that, ttally unlike the final editin f 1857, the first editin cllects mre genuine flk tales, keeping spken and raw cntents, despite the fact that the language is nt as pleasing as that in later revised versins. Fr instance, Snw White’s mther, nt her stepmther, wants t kill the beautiful girl ut f envy. The strytellers d nt beat abut the bush and they tell the truths they knw, engaging peple t learn frm symbls hw t engage their realities, even thugh magic, incredible transfrmatin, and cruelty are invlved.
Lastly, the Grimms’ little-knwn first editin reveals frgtten vices that are actually deep within us. Therefre, the irresistibility f the Grimms’ tales are that really nt theirs, but urs.
28. Accrding t the authr, why shuld we rediscver the Grimms’ first editin?
A. T explre its rigin.B. T appreciate its significance.
C. T hnur its 200th anniversary.D. T remember the Brthers Grimm.
29. What is paragraph 3 f the text mainly abut?
A. The quality f the flk culture.B. The cntents f the first editin.
C. The feature f the ld German literature.D. The mtivatin f the Grimms cllecting tales.
30. What can we learn abut Snw White in the first editin?
A. It is lsely based n the flk tale.B. It instructs readers t integrate int life.
C. It is appealing fr its beautiful language.D. It expses envy and cruelty f the stepmther.
31. What can we infer abut the Brthers Grimm frm the text?
A. They were cllectrs f antiques.B. They kept their style in later editins.
C. They thught highly f mdern literature.D. They were pineers in preserving flk culture.
D
If yu live n this planet, there’s a decent chance yu’ve seen the classic Star Trek Episde, in which captain Kirk and several members find themselves in what appears t be anther universe.
These days, it seems the idea f the multiverse—many wrlds—is having its Hllywd mment. Its appeal as a strytelling device is bvius—characters explre a multi-wrld with varying degrees f similarity t ur wn, as well as different versins f themselves. Hence, it has been fully established in mainstream pp culture.
While Hllywd can’t seem t get enugh f the multiverse, it remains deeply cntrversial (有争议的) amng scientists. Advcates n the tw sides shw n mercy tward each ther in their bks, n their blgs. But physicists didn’t pull the idea ut f thin air—rather, several distinct lines f reasning seem t pint t the multiverse’s existence. Hwever, critics warn that making the multiverse legal culd make it harder fr the public t distinguish speculative (推测性的) theries frm established fact, making it mre difficult t keep pseud-science (伪科学) at bay（陷入困境）. Giving credit t such speculatin risks “turning fundamental physics int pseud-science.”
The multiverse cntrversy is rted in the idea f testability. If we can’t interact with these ther universes, r detect them in any way, sme experts insist that reduces them t mere philsphical speculatin. But Carrll, an advcate fr “many wrlds”, argues that mathematics is the language describing ur physical theries; Since Schrödinger’s equatin (方程), n which Quantum (量子) mechanics rests, predicts the existence f many wrlds, s be it.
Culd a mre expansive view f the universe itself be the next breakthrugh? As Siegfried puts it: “Every time in the past that we’ve thught, ‘We’ve gt it; this is what the whle universe is’—the peple wh’ve said, ‘Maybe there’s mre than ne f thse’ have always turned ut t be right”.
32. Why is Hllywd s ccupied with the multiverse?
A. It makes fr engaging plts.B. It is a much-talked-abut tpic.
C. It is helpful t ppularize science.D. It dminates the mainstream pp culture.
33. What d the underlined wrds in paragraph 3 prbably mean?
A. Out f date.B. Out f place.
C. Out f nwhere. D. Out f questin.
34. Accrding t the ppnents, the basic standard f fundamental physics is that _____.
A. it can be detected smehwB. it can be reasned lgically
C. it can be interpreted philsphicallyD. it can be predicted by mathematics equatin
35. What might be the authr’s attitude tward the multiverse?
A. Dubtful. B. Dismissive（鄙视的）.C. Unclear.D. Apprving.

It seems that in shw biz the true legends never stp．In an interview frm 2017 with his friends, Van Dyke described what it was like hitting 90:“Peple are mre afraid f aging than they are f death these days．And I want t say that remain yung in heart and there’s a lt f gd living t d.”

The greatest irny (讽刺) f the wrld-wide celebratins held in 2012 t hnur the 200th anniversary f the first editin f the Grimms’ Hausmärchen invlves the discvery that mst peple really dn’t knw the riginal Grimms’ tales published in 1812.
If we return t take a clser lk at the first editin, we’ll find it was this editin that inspired schlars f flk culture thrughut Eurpe t gather tales frm the ral traditin and preserve them fr future generatins.
When the Grimms Jacb and Wilhelm began cllecting all kinds f flk tales and sngs at the beginning f the 19th century, what attracted them t cncentrate n ld German literature was a belief that the mst natural and pure frms f culture were t be lcated in the past, while mdern literature, even thugh it might be remarkably rich, was artificial and thus culd nt express the genuine quality f flk culture that riginated naturally frm peple’s experiences and bund the peple tgether. Bradly speaking, the Grimms sught t cllect and preserve ancient things cnsisting f tales, sngs, and dcuments. They intended t demnstrate hw natural language, riginating frm the needs, custms f the cmmn peple, created genuine bnds and helped frm civilized cmmunities.
Turning t the first editin a reader might ntice that, ttally unlike the final editin f 1857, the first editin cllects mre genuine flk tales, keeping spken and raw cntents, despite the fact that the language is nt as pleasing as that in later revised versins. Fr instance, Snw White’s mther, nt her stepmther, wants t kill the beautiful girl ut f envy. The strytellers d nt beat abut the bush and they tell the truths they knw, engaging peple t learn frm symbls hw t engage their realities, even thugh magic, incredible transfrmatin, and cruelty are invlved.
Lastly, the Grimms’ little-knwn first editin reveals frgtten vices that are actually deep within us. Therefre, the irresistibility f the Grimms’ tales are that really nt theirs, but urs.
28. Accrding t the authr, why shuld we rediscver the Grimms’ first editin?
A. T explre its rigin.B. T appreciate its significance.
C. T hnur its 200th anniversary.D. T remember the Brthers Grimm.
29. What is paragraph 3 f the text mainly abut?
A. The quality f the flk culture.B. The cntents f the first editin.
C. The feature f the ld German literature.D. The mtivatin f the Grimms cllecting tales.
30. What can we learn abut Snw White in the first editin?
A. It is lsely based n the flk tale.B. It instructs readers t integrate int life.
C. It is appealing fr its beautiful language.D. It expses envy and cruelty f the stepmther.
31. What can we infer abut the Brthers Grimm frm the text?
A. They were cllectrs f antiques.B. They kept their style in later editins.
C. They thught highly f mdern literature.D. They were pineers in preserving flk culture.

If yu live n this planet, there’s a decent chance yu’ve seen the classic Star Trek Episde, in which captain Kirk and several members find themselves in what appears t be anther universe.
These days, it seems the idea f the multiverse—many wrlds—is having its Hllywd mment. Its appeal as a strytelling device is bvius—characters explre a multi-wrld with varying degrees f similarity t ur wn, as well as different versins f themselves. Hence, it has been fully established in mainstream pp culture.
While Hllywd can’t seem t get enugh f the multiverse, it remains deeply cntrversial (有争议的) amng scientists. Advcates n the tw sides shw n mercy tward each ther in their bks, n their blgs. But physicists didn’t pull the idea ut f thin air—rather, several distinct lines f reasning seem t pint t the multiverse’s existence. Hwever, critics warn that making the multiverse legal culd make it harder fr the public t distinguish speculative (推测性的) theries frm established fact, making it mre difficult t keep pseud-science (伪科学) at bay（陷入困境）. Giving credit t such speculatin risks “turning fundamental physics int pseud-science.”
The multiverse cntrversy is rted in the idea f testability. If we can’t interact with these ther universes, r detect them in any way, sme experts insist that reduces them t mere philsphical speculatin. But Carrll, an advcate fr “many wrlds”, argues that mathematics is the language describing ur physical theries; Since Schrödinger’s equatin (方程), n which Quantum (量子) mechanics rests, predicts the existence f many wrlds, s be it.
Culd a mre expansive view f the universe itself be the next breakthrugh? As Siegfried puts it: “Every time in the past that we’ve thught, ‘We’ve gt it; this is what the whle universe is’—the peple wh’ve said, ‘Maybe there’s mre than ne f thse’ have always turned ut t be right”.
32. Why is Hllywd s ccupied with the multiverse?
A. It makes fr engaging plts.B. It is a much-talked-abut tpic.
C. It is helpful t ppularize science.D. It dminates the mainstream pp culture.
33. What d the underlined wrds in paragraph 3 prbably mean?
A. Out f date.B. Out f place.
C. Out f nwhere. D. Out f questin.
34. Accrding t the ppnents, the basic standard f fundamental physics is that _____.
A. it can be detected smehwB. it can be reasned lgically
C. it can be interpreted philsphicallyD. it can be predicted by mathematics equatin
35. What might be the authr’s attitude tward the multiverse?
A. Dubtful. B. Dismissive（鄙视的）.C. Unclear.D. Apprving.
