In 1975, a San Dieg hmemaker named Marjrie Rice came acrss a clumn in Scientific American abut tiling (瓷砖). There is a prblem which has interested mathematicians since ancient Greek times. After Rice’s chance encunter with tiling, family members ften saw her in the kitchen cnstantly drawing shapes. “I thught she was just drawing casually (随意),” her daughter Kathy said. But Rice wh tk nly ne year f math in high schl, was actually discvering never-befre-seen patterns.
Brn in Flrida, she lved learning and particularly her brief expsure t math, but tight budget and scial culture prevented her family frm even cnsidering that she might attend cllege. “Fr Rice, math was a pleasure,” her sn David nce said.
Rice gave ne f her sns a subscriptin t Scientific American partly because she culd read it carefully while the children were at schl. When she read Gardner’s clumn abut tiling as she later recalled in an interview: “I thught it must be wnderful that smene culd discver these beautiful patterns which n ne had seen befre.” She als wrte in an essay, “My interest was engaged by the subject and I wanted t understand every detail f it. Lacking a mathematical backgrund, I develped my wn symbl system and in a few mnths discvered a new type.”
Astnished and delighted, she sent her wrk t Gardner, wh sent it t Dris, a tiling expert at Mravian Cllege. Dris cnfirmed that Rice’s finding was crrect.
Later, Rice declined t lecture n her discveries, citing shyness, but at Dris’s invitatin, she attended a university mathematics meeting, where she was intrduced t the audience. Rice still said nthing f her achievements t her children, but they eventually fund ut as the awards munted.
24. Why did Rice ften draw shapes in the kitchen?
A. T becme a mathematician.B. T explre the secret f tiling.
C. T fill her leisure time.D. T shw her passin fr drawing.
25. What can we learn abut Rice frm Paragraphs 2 and 3?
A. She lnged t start a clumn.B. She was rejected frm a cllege.
C. She was gd at designing patterns.D. She succeeded in develping a system.
26. What is the text mainly abut?
A. The magic f math.B. The effrts f Rice.
C. The humility f Rice.D. The patterns f tiling.
27. What can we learn frm the Rice’s experience?
A. Nthing is impssible t a willing mind.B. Actins speak luder than wrds.
C. Every clud has a silver lining.D. Practice makes perfect.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了，1975年，圣地亚哥一位名叫马乔里·赖斯（Marjrie Rice ）的家庭主妇在《科学美国人》杂志上偶然看到一篇关于瓷砖的专栏文章，因为想探索瓷砖的秘密，Rice经常在厨房里画形状，虽缺乏数学背景（高中只学了一年数学），但她凭借自己对数学的热情潜心研究，开发了自己的符号系统，坚持不懈，发现了以前从未见过的图案。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段中“After Rice’s chance encunter with tiling, family members ften saw her in the kitchen cnstantly drawing shapes. (Rice偶然接触瓷砖后，家人经常看到她在厨房里不停地画形状)”和第三段中“She als wrte in an essay, “My interest was engaged by the subject and I wanted t understand every detail f it. (她还在一篇文章中写道，“我对这个主题很感兴趣，我想了解它的每一个细节)”可知，Rice对瓷砖这个主题很感兴趣，想了解它的每一个细节，可得出因为想探索瓷砖的秘密，所以Rice经常在厨房里画形状。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中“Lacking a mathematical backgrund, I develped my wn symbl system and in a few mnths discvered a new type. (由于缺乏数学背景，我开发了自己的符号系统，并在几个月内发现了一种新的类型)”可知，Rice成功地开发了一个系统。故选D项。

C
With a brain the size f a pinhead, insects pssess a great sense f directin. They manage t lcate themselves and mve thrugh small penings. Hw d they d this with their limited brain pwer? Understanding the inner wrkings f an insect’s brain can help us in ur search twards energy-efficient cmputing, physicist Elisabetta Chicca f the University f Grningen shws with her mst recent result: a rbt that acts like an insect.
It’s nt easy t make use f the images that cme in thrugh yur eyes when deciding what yur feet r wings shuld d. A key aspect here is the apparent mtin f things as yu mve. “Like when yu're n a train,” Chicca explains. “The trees nearby appear t mve faster than the huses far away.” Insects use this infrmatin t infer hw far away things are. This wrks well when mving in a straight line, but reality is nt that simple. T keep things manageable fr their limited brain pwer, they adjust their behaviur: they fly in a straight line, make a turn, then make anther straight line.
In search f the neural mechanism (神经机制) that drives insect behaviur, PhD student Thrben Schepe develped a mdel f its neurnal activity and a small rbt that uses this mdel t find the psitin. His mdel is based n ne main principle: always head twards the area with the least apparent mtin. He had his rbt drive thrugh a lng passage cnsisting f tw walls and the rbt centred in the middle f the passage, as insects tend t d. In ther virtual envirnments, such as a space with small penings, his mdel als shwed similar behaviur t insects.
The fact that a rbt can find its psitin in a realistic envirnment is nt new. Rather, the mdel gives insight int hw insects d the jb, and hw they manage t d things s efficiently. In a similar way, yu culd make cmputers mre efficient.
In the future, Chicca hpes t apply this specific insect behaviur t a chip as well. “Instead f using a general-purpse cmputer with all its pssibilities, yu can build specific hardware; a tiny chip that des the jb, keeping things much smaller and energy-efficient.” She cmments.
28. Why is “a train” mentined in Paragraph 2?
A. T illustrate the principle f train mtin.B. T highlight why human visin is limited.
C. T explain hw insects perceive distances.D. T cmpare the mvement f trees and huses.
29. What des Paragraph 3 mainly talk abut cncerning Schepe’s mdel?
A. Its nvel design.B. Its theretical basis.
C. Its pssible applicatin.D. Its wrking mechanism.
30. What d the researchers think f the finding?
A. Amusing.B. Discuraging.C. Prmising.D. Cntradictry.
31. What will Chicca’s fllw-up study fcus n?
A. Inventing insect-like chips.B. Studying general-purpse rbts.
C. Creating insect-inspired cmputers.D. Develping energy-efficient hardware.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了物理学家Elisabetta Chicca的最新研究成果：一个模仿昆虫行为的机器人，该机器人能够帮助人们理解昆虫大脑的运作机制，并探讨了这种机制在提高计算机能效方面的潜在应用。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“A key aspect here is the apparent mtin f things as yu mve. “Like when yu're n a train,” Chicca explains. “The trees nearby appear t mve faster than the huses far away.” Insects use this infrmatin t infer hw far away things are.(这里的一个关键方面是当你移动时物体的明显运动。“就像你在火车上一样，”Chicca解释道。“附近的树似乎比远处的房子移动得快。”昆虫利用这些信息来推断物体的距离)”可推知，本段提到火车是为了解释昆虫如何感知距离的。故选C项。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“In search f the neural mechanism (神经机制) that drives insect behaviur, PhD student Thrben Schepe develped a mdel f its neurnal activity and a small rbt that uses this mdel t find the psitin. His mdel is based n ne main principle: always head twards the area with the least apparent mtin. He had his rbt drive thrugh a lng passage cnsisting f tw walls and the rbt centred in the middle f the passage, as insects tend t d. In ther virtual envirnments, such as a space with small penings, his mdel als shwed similar behaviur t insects.(为了寻找驱动昆虫行为的神经机制，博士生Thrben Schepe开发了一个昆虫神经活动模型，并开发了一个小型机器人，利用这个模型来找到昆虫的位置。他的模型基于一个主要原则：总是朝着运动最不明显的区域前进。他让他的机器人穿过一条由两堵墙组成的长通道，机器人就像昆虫一样，站在通道的中间。在其他虚拟环境中，比如有小开口的空间，他的模型也表现出与昆虫相似的行为)”可知，关于Schepe的模型，本段主要讨论了它的工作机制。故选D项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“In a similar way, yu culd make cmputers mre efficient.(同样地，你可以使计算机更有效率)”以及最后一段“In the future, Chicca hpes t apply this specific insect behaviur t a chip as well. “Instead f using a general-purpse cmputer with all its pssibilities, yu can build specific hardware; a tiny chip that des the jb, keeping things much smaller and energy-efficient.” She cmments.(将来，Chicca希望将昆虫的这种特殊行为也应用到芯片上。“你可以构建特定的硬件，而不是使用具有所有功能的通用计算机；一个微小的芯片就能完成这项工作，让物体变得更小、更节能。”她评论道)”可推知，研究人员认为这一发现可以让物体变得更小、更节能，所以是有前途的。故选C项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“In the future, Chicca hpes t apply this specific insect behaviur t a chip as well. “Instead f using a general-purpse cmputer with all its pssibilities, yu can build specific hardware; a tiny chip that des the jb, keeping things much smaller and energy-efficient.” She cmments.(将来，Chicca希望将昆虫的这种特殊行为也应用到芯片上。“你可以构建特定的硬件，而不是使用具有所有功能的通用计算机；一个微小的芯片就能完成这项工作，让物体变得更小、更节能。”她评论道)”可推知，Chicca的后续研究重点是将昆虫的这种特殊行为应用到芯片上。故选A项。

Genetic testing cmpanies have a lng histry f creative attempts t reach the mainstream. An early example was the sequencing f rck star Ozzy Osburne’s genes in 2010, with accmpanying guess abut hw they might have influenced his drug habits.
Lately, such prjects have taken n a new, highly cmmercialized tendency. In 2017, we gt the “Marmite (马麦酱) gene prject,” run by Lndn-based genetic testing start-up DNAfit. It claims t shw that lve r hate fr Marmite was in ur genes. The prject turned int a full-blwn marketing campaign, and even sld Marmite-branded DNA testing tls.
DNAfit is nw wrking with Mercedes-Benz t find ut whether specific genetic traits are assciated with business wisdm. AncestryDNA, the wrld’s largest cnsumer genetic testing cmpany, last year teamed up with Sptify t prmte “music tailred t yur DNA.” Just a few weeks ag, 23andMe, the secnd largest, annunced a partnership with Airbnb t prvide genetically tailred travel experiences, als inspired by ancestral DNA.
I have skin in this game. I run a genetic-testing start-up that cnnects peple wh want their genme sequenced with researchers wh want data t imprve their understanding f genetic disease. I believe that bradening access t DNA testing can be a pwerful frce fr gd, prviding safer, mre effective medicines and giving peple mre pwer ver their healthcare. But these campaigns risk discrediting the industry, by giving a misleading impressin f what genetics can and can't say and its rle in determining behaviurs and persnal preferences.
Take the Marmite study. It cvered 261 peple — tiny, by the standards f the field. It was published nt in a jurnal, but nline n biRxiv, a server where scientists typically put results befre peer-review. Shrtly after, researchers lked at the genetic data f mre than 500 times as many peple in the UK Bibank and fund n such crrelatin. A large peer-reviewed study in 2013 fund n significant link between genes and business cmmn sense.
We need t infrm the public abut what this is all abut: that is, the gathering f large amunts f genetic data. We need better regulatin t ensure that cnsumers are clear that this may happen with this sensitive persnal infrmatin. A checkbx n a 20-page web dcument full f legal terms shuld nt be enugh.
Scientists t, need t start asking hard questins abut whether the infrmatin they are using has been surced ethically. DNA testing has a great future, but we can't build this future with data acquired by any means.

A checkbx n a 20-page web dcument full f legal terms shuld nt be enugh.(我们需要告知公众这是怎么回事:也就是说，收集大量的基因数据。我们需要更好的监管，以确保消费者清楚，这些敏感的个人信息可能会发生这种情况。在一份20页的网页文件中，一个复选框是不够的)”以及最后一段“Scientists t, need t start asking hard questins abut whether the infrmatin they are using has been surced ethically. DNA testing has a great future, but we can't build this future with data acquired by any means.(科学家们也需要开始提出一些尖锐的问题，即他们所使用的信息的来源是否符合道德规范。DNA测试有一个美好的未来，但无论如何我们不能利用获得的数据来建立这个未来)”可知，最后两段主要讲了正确的基因检测的基本。故选D。
【35题详解】

“Have yu decided n yur majr?” my parents inquired.
“Biengineering, f curse.” I respnded withut the slightest hesitatin.
I entered this wrld with Pland syndrme, a disease that prevented the frmatin f my right arm and pectral muscle(s 胸肌). My parents, believing that playing with Leg culd enhance my dexterity(灵巧), gifted me my first kit when I was five. Struggling t piece the cmpnents tgether, I crafted my first Leg wrk – a car. As I gt lder, I grew bsessed with Leg Technic, a mre advanced range, and hw t use it t build mre delicate structures. By the age f nine, I had fashined my first prsthetic arm(义肢)using Leg Technic – a simple bx that perfectly accmmdated my right arm.
This early creatin sparked my drive fr further explratin. Years later, I develped anther prsthetic arm that I called the MK-1, which had fingers, a mtr, a pressure sensr, a mvable elbw jint, and a grabber capable f picking things up.
Befre cnstructing it, I had already decided against traditinal prsthetics. Nt because they were ineffective, but because playing with Leg did significantly imprve my dexterity, helping me adapt t my cnditin. Hwever, a mre frustrating reasn was that prsthetics were t expensive. My parents and I had lked int getting ne a few years earlier, nly t be discuraged by the prhibitive price. S, I cncluded that I might nt need ne because I was managing well withut. Nevertheless, the jy f creating prsthetics with Leg remained, and I cntinued making them purely fr the fun f it.
As the years passed, my creatins evlved frm MK-1 t the mre advanced and cmfrtable MK-V. It featured a cntrl unit that culd send and receive rders frm sensrs n the arm t the mtrs, with cables that cntract like muscles.
One day, a cuple with their eight-year-ld sn, wh lst bth arms in an accident, reached ut t me after learning abut my creatins. Shrt f mney, they culdn’t affrd well-functining prsthetics. “Daniel,” the father earnestly asked, “we were wndering if yu culd pssibly help build a set f prsthetics fr ur sn.”

In 1975, a San Dieg hmemaker named Marjrie Rice came acrss a clumn in Scientific American abut tiling (瓷砖). There is a prblem which has interested mathematicians since ancient Greek times. After Rice’s chance encunter with tiling, family members ften saw her in the kitchen cnstantly drawing shapes. “I thught she was just drawing casually (随意),” her daughter Kathy said. But Rice wh tk nly ne year f math in high schl, was actually discvering never-befre-seen patterns.
Brn in Flrida, she lved learning and particularly her brief expsure t math, but tight budget and scial culture prevented her family frm even cnsidering that she might attend cllege. “Fr Rice, math was a pleasure,” her sn David nce said.
Rice gave ne f her sns a subscriptin t Scientific American partly because she culd read it carefully while the children were at schl. When she read Gardner’s clumn abut tiling as she later recalled in an interview: “I thught it must be wnderful that smene culd discver these beautiful patterns which n ne had seen befre.” She als wrte in an essay, “My interest was engaged by the subject and I wanted t understand every detail f it. Lacking a mathematical backgrund, I develped my wn symbl system and in a few mnths discvered a new type.”
Astnished and delighted, she sent her wrk t Gardner, wh sent it t Dris, a tiling expert at Mravian Cllege. Dris cnfirmed that Rice’s finding was crrect.
Later, Rice declined t lecture n her discveries, citing shyness, but at Dris’s invitatin, she attended a university mathematics meeting, where she was intrduced t the audience. Rice still said nthing f her achievements t her children, but they eventually fund ut as the awards munted.
24. Why did Rice ften draw shapes in the kitchen?
A. T becme a mathematician.B. T explre the secret f tiling.
C. T fill her leisure time.D. T shw her passin fr drawing.
25. What can we learn abut Rice frm Paragraphs 2 and 3?
A. She lnged t start a clumn.B. She was rejected frm a cllege.
C. She was gd at designing patterns.D. She succeeded in develping a system.
26. What is the text mainly abut?
A. The magic f math.B. The effrts f Rice.
C. The humility f Rice.D. The patterns f tiling.
27. What can we learn frm the Rice’s experience?
A. Nthing is impssible t a willing mind.B. Actins speak luder than wrds.
C. Every clud has a silver lining.D. Practice makes perfect.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了，1975年，圣地亚哥一位名叫马乔里·赖斯（Marjrie Rice ）的家庭主妇在《科学美国人》杂志上偶然看到一篇关于瓷砖的专栏文章，因为想探索瓷砖的秘密，Rice经常在厨房里画形状，虽缺乏数学背景（高中只学了一年数学），但她凭借自己对数学的热情潜心研究，开发了自己的符号系统，坚持不懈，发现了以前从未见过的图案。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段中“After Rice’s chance encunter with tiling, family members ften saw her in the kitchen cnstantly drawing shapes. (Rice偶然接触瓷砖后，家人经常看到她在厨房里不停地画形状)”和第三段中“She als wrte in an essay, “My interest was engaged by the subject and I wanted t understand every detail f it. (她还在一篇文章中写道，“我对这个主题很感兴趣，我想了解它的每一个细节)”可知，Rice对瓷砖这个主题很感兴趣，想了解它的每一个细节，可得出因为想探索瓷砖的秘密，所以Rice经常在厨房里画形状。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中“Lacking a mathematical backgrund, I develped my wn symbl system and in a few mnths discvered a new type. (由于缺乏数学背景，我开发了自己的符号系统，并在几个月内发现了一种新的类型)”可知，Rice成功地开发了一个系统。故选D项。

C
With a brain the size f a pinhead, insects pssess a great sense f directin. They manage t lcate themselves and mve thrugh small penings. Hw d they d this with their limited brain pwer? Understanding the inner wrkings f an insect’s brain can help us in ur search twards energy-efficient cmputing, physicist Elisabetta Chicca f the University f Grningen shws with her mst recent result: a rbt that acts like an insect.
It’s nt easy t make use f the images that cme in thrugh yur eyes when deciding what yur feet r wings shuld d. A key aspect here is the apparent mtin f things as yu mve. “Like when yu're n a train,” Chicca explains. “The trees nearby appear t mve faster than the huses far away.” Insects use this infrmatin t infer hw far away things are. This wrks well when mving in a straight line, but reality is nt that simple. T keep things manageable fr their limited brain pwer, they adjust their behaviur: they fly in a straight line, make a turn, then make anther straight line.
In search f the neural mechanism (神经机制) that drives insect behaviur, PhD student Thrben Schepe develped a mdel f its neurnal activity and a small rbt that uses this mdel t find the psitin. His mdel is based n ne main principle: always head twards the area with the least apparent mtin. He had his rbt drive thrugh a lng passage cnsisting f tw walls and the rbt centred in the middle f the passage, as insects tend t d. In ther virtual envirnments, such as a space with small penings, his mdel als shwed similar behaviur t insects.
The fact that a rbt can find its psitin in a realistic envirnment is nt new. Rather, the mdel gives insight int hw insects d the jb, and hw they manage t d things s efficiently. In a similar way, yu culd make cmputers mre efficient.
In the future, Chicca hpes t apply this specific insect behaviur t a chip as well. “Instead f using a general-purpse cmputer with all its pssibilities, yu can build specific hardware; a tiny chip that des the jb, keeping things much smaller and energy-efficient.” She cmments.
28. Why is “a train” mentined in Paragraph 2?
A. T illustrate the principle f train mtin.B. T highlight why human visin is limited.
C. T explain hw insects perceive distances.D. T cmpare the mvement f trees and huses.
29. What des Paragraph 3 mainly talk abut cncerning Schepe’s mdel?
A. Its nvel design.B. Its theretical basis.
C. Its pssible applicatin.D. Its wrking mechanism.
30. What d the researchers think f the finding?
A. Amusing.B. Discuraging.C. Prmising.D. Cntradictry.
31. What will Chicca’s fllw-up study fcus n?
A. Inventing insect-like chips.B. Studying general-purpse rbts.
C. Creating insect-inspired cmputers.D. Develping energy-efficient hardware.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了物理学家Elisabetta Chicca的最新研究成果：一个模仿昆虫行为的机器人，该机器人能够帮助人们理解昆虫大脑的运作机制，并探讨了这种机制在提高计算机能效方面的潜在应用。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“A key aspect here is the apparent mtin f things as yu mve. “Like when yu're n a train,” Chicca explains. “The trees nearby appear t mve faster than the huses far away.” Insects use this infrmatin t infer hw far away things are.(这里的一个关键方面是当你移动时物体的明显运动。“就像你在火车上一样，”Chicca解释道。“附近的树似乎比远处的房子移动得快。”昆虫利用这些信息来推断物体的距离)”可推知，本段提到火车是为了解释昆虫如何感知距离的。故选C项。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“In search f the neural mechanism (神经机制) that drives insect behaviur, PhD student Thrben Schepe develped a mdel f its neurnal activity and a small rbt that uses this mdel t find the psitin. His mdel is based n ne main principle: always head twards the area with the least apparent mtin. He had his rbt drive thrugh a lng passage cnsisting f tw walls and the rbt centred in the middle f the passage, as insects tend t d.

Genetic testing cmpanies have a lng histry f creative attempts t reach the mainstream. An early example was the sequencing f rck star Ozzy Osburne’s genes in 2010, with accmpanying guess abut hw they might have influenced his drug habits.
Lately, such prjects have taken n a new, highly cmmercialized tendency. In 2017, we gt the “Marmite (马麦酱) gene prject,” run by Lndn-based genetic testing start-up DNAfit. It claims t shw that lve r hate fr Marmite was in ur genes. The prject turned int a full-blwn marketing campaign, and even sld Marmite-branded DNA testing tls.
DNAfit is nw wrking with Mercedes-Benz t find ut whether specific genetic traits are assciated with business wisdm. AncestryDNA, the wrld’s largest cnsumer genetic testing cmpany, last year teamed up with Sptify t prmte “music tailred t yur DNA.” Just a few weeks ag, 23andMe, the secnd largest, annunced a partnership with Airbnb t prvide genetically tailred travel experiences, als inspired by ancestral DNA.
I have skin in this game. I run a genetic-testing start-up that cnnects peple wh want their genme sequenced with researchers wh want data t imprve their understanding f genetic disease. I believe that bradening access t DNA testing can be a pwerful frce fr gd, prviding safer, mre effective medicines and giving peple mre pwer ver their healthcare. But these campaigns risk discrediting the industry, by giving a misleading impressin f what genetics can and can't say and its rle in determining behaviurs and persnal preferences.
Take the Marmite study. It cvered 261 peple — tiny, by the standards f the field. It was published nt in a jurnal, but nline n biRxiv, a server where scientists typically put results befre peer-review. Shrtly after, researchers lked at the genetic data f mre than 500 times as many peple in the UK Bibank and fund n such crrelatin. A large peer-reviewed study in 2013 fund n significant link between genes and business cmmn sense.
We need t infrm the public abut what this is all abut: that is, the gathering f large amunts f genetic data. We need better regulatin t ensure that cnsumers are clear that this may happen with this sensitive persnal infrmatin. A checkbx n a 20-page web dcument full f legal terms shuld nt be enugh.
Scientists t, need t start asking hard questins abut whether the infrmatin they are using has been surced ethically. DNA testing has a great future, but we can't build this future with data acquired by any means.
32. The authr mentins DNAfit, AncestryDNA and 23andMe in rder t __________.
A. highlight the prblems facing genetic testing
B. illustrate the cmmercial applicatins f DNA
C. cmpare what prgress the cmpanies have made

A. is challenging the available treatment fr skin disease
B. has a persnal investment in the genetic-testing business
C. hpes t remve peple's misunderstanding f the game rules
D. believes that every individual shuld have access t DNA testing
34. What d the last tw paragraphs mainly talk abut?
A. The disadvantages f genetic testing.B. The scientific value f genetic testing.
C. The legal system genetic testing needs.D. The essentials fr prper genetic testing.
35. Which f the fllwing might be the best title fr the passage?

DNA testing has a great future, but we can't build this future with data acquired by any means.(科学家们也需要开始提出一些尖锐的问题，即他们所使用的信息的来源是否符合道德规范。DNA测试有一个美好的未来，但无论如何我们不能利用获得的数据来建立这个未来)”可知，最后两段主要讲了正确的基因检测的基本。故选D。

“Have yu decided n yur majr?” my parents inquired.
“Biengineering, f curse.” I respnded withut the slightest hesitatin.
I entered this wrld with Pland syndrme, a disease that prevented the frmatin f my right arm and pectral muscle(s 胸肌). My parents, believing that playing with Leg culd enhance my dexterity(灵巧), gifted me my first kit when I was five. Struggling t piece the cmpnents tgether, I crafted my first Leg wrk – a car. As I gt lder, I grew bsessed with Leg Technic, a mre advanced range, and hw t use it t build mre delicate structures. By the age f nine, I had fashined my first prsthetic arm(义肢)using Leg Technic – a simple bx that perfectly accmmdated my right arm.
This early creatin sparked my drive fr further explratin. Years later, I develped anther prsthetic arm that I called the MK-1, which had fingers, a mtr, a pressure sensr, a mvable elbw jint, and a grabber capable f picking things up.
Befre cnstructing it, I had already decided against traditinal prsthetics. Nt because they were ineffective, but because playing with Leg did significantly imprve my dexterity, helping me adapt t my cnditin. Hwever, a mre frustrating reasn was that prsthetics were t expensive. My parents and I had lked int getting ne a few years earlier, nly t be discuraged by the prhibitive price. S, I cncluded that I might nt need ne because I was managing well withut. Nevertheless, the jy f creating prsthetics with Leg remained, and I cntinued making them purely fr the fun f it.
As the years passed, my creatins evlved frm MK-1 t the mre advanced and cmfrtable MK-V. It featured a cntrl unit that culd send and receive rders frm sensrs n the arm t the mtrs, with cables that cntract like muscles.
One day, a cuple with their eight-year-ld sn, wh lst bth arms in an accident, reached ut t me after learning abut my creatins. Shrt f mney, they culdn’t affrd well-functining prsthetics. “Daniel,” the father earnestly asked, “we were wndering if yu culd pssibly help build a set f prsthetics fr ur sn.”
