This left Vadim crawling up and dwn the stairs, an activity that was bth physically and mentally exhausting. He’d ften be late fr meals. If the fd wasn’t already gne by the time he arrived, ther kids wuld steal frm him.
Then, a chain effect began when sme special flks visited the rphanage. They tld him a stry abut a spiritual figure wh advcated lve and frgiveness. This cnversatin helped the 14-year-ld find his faith and, in turn, he had mre hpe than he ever had befre.
Tday, Vadim is n lnger the by subject t fate. He is a father t his wn kids, and his life culdn’t be mre different r better. Over the years, he’s discvered a gift fr expressing himself thrugh art. This inspired Tim Tebw Fundatin, an rganizatin fighting fr the mst vulnerable (脆弱的) peple arund the wrld, t ask if he`d like t create a piece that represented what it lked and felt like fr him t have gne frm “darkness t light.”
The result? A truly remarkable painting that features Vadim, in his wheelchair, leaving behind his ld hme, including the wine cntainer his parents stuffed him int.

The idea that the nrmal human bdy temperature is abut 37℃ was first presented by the German physician Carl Reinhld August Wunderlich in 1851. Since then, it’s becme s widely accepted that it serves as a tuchstne fr health—a diagnstic tl used by physicians and parents as a basic indicatr f whether smene is sick r well. Hwever, it turns ut that this well-established fact isn’t, in fact, crrect—r, t put it mre accurately, human beings have been getting cler ver the years.
Recent studies have shwn that temperature recrds f grups f peple have tended t run lw cmpared t the accepted nrm (标准), s the Stanfrd team, led by Julie Par-snnet,MD, prfessr f medicine and f health research and plicy, decided t d a mre in-depth study t cmpare mdern measurements with histrical recrds t try t identify bdy temperature trends and, perhaps, uncver the reasn why this cling is happening.
Fr their research, the Stanfrd team lked at three distinct data sets frm tw histrical perids. After ging thrugh 677,423 temperature measurements, the team fund that men brn in the 21st century had an average bdy temperature f 0.6℃ lwer than that f thse brn in the early 19th century while mdern wmen shwed an average decrease f 0.03℃ cmpared t thse brn in the 1890s.
As t why this is happening, the researchers say that the mst likely mechanism is a reductin in the human metablic rate (代谢率) due t envirnmental factrs: One pssibility is that imprvements in public health ver 200 years have reduced the incidence f inflammatins (炎症),which prmte metablism. This cmbined with peple living mre cmfrtable lives in mre stable envirnments means that the bdy desn’t have t wrk as hard t stay warm, s the average temperature falls.
”The envirnment that we’re living in has changed, including the temperature in ur hmes, ur cntact with micrrganisms (微生物) and the fd that we have access t. All these things mean that althugh we cnsider human beings as the same fr all f human evlutin, we’re nt the same. We’re actually changing physilgically,” Parsnnet said.
8. What is Carl Reinhld August Wunderlich’s achievement?
A. He set up standards fr human health services.
B. He predicted trends in human bdy temperature.
C. He first used bdy temperature as a health indicatr.
D. He prpsed the standard human bdy temperature.
9. What can we learn abut the Stanfrd team’s study?
A. It shws wmen have a lwer bdy temperature than men.
B. It prves human bdy temperature has drpped at a faster rate.
C. It cmpared histrical and current human bdy temperature data.
D. It suggested updating the definitin f the average bdy temperature.
10. Which f the fllwing is thught t cause the decrease in human bdy temperature?
A. The imprved living cnditins.
B. The cntact with ther creatures.
C. The decline in physically demanding wrk.
D. The adaptatin f humans t climate change.
11. Which ne culd be the best title fr the text?
A. What exactly is nrmal human bdy temperature?
B. Why des human bdy temperature need measuring?
C. Human bdy temperature has decreased ver the years
D. Human bdy temperature changes with the envirnment

Odrs (气味) are cmplex and ften have changeable structures, and can shw meaningful infrmatin abut an animal’s surrundings, like the lcatin f fd surces. But it has previusly been assumed that mammalian (哺乳动物的) brains can`t fully prcess these tempral changes in smell because they happen s rapidly, much faster than an animal can smell.
Using behaviral experiments, researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and UCL(University Cllege Lndn)fund that mice can, in fact, detect very rapid variatins within drs, at rates previusly nt thught pssible. They als shwed that mice can use this infrmatin t distinguish whether drs are cming frm the same r different surces, even if they are very clse t each ther.
This suggests that the mammalian lfactry (嗅觉的) system is als key in prcessing the awareness f physical space and surrundings, guiding decisins imprtant t survival.
Andreas Schaefer, grup leader f the Sensry Circuits and Neurtechnlgy Labratry at UCL says: “Frm an evlutinary (进化的) pint f view ur findings make sense as they help t explain why there is a lt f cmputatinal pwer within the lfactry bulb, the part f the brain where the nse sends signals t. It’s nt nly prcessing chemicals frm drs but als calculating infrmatin abut physical distance and surces. It wuld have been strange fr evlutin t create such prcessing pwer in this part f the brain if it were nt being used t help the species survive.”
In ne key experiment, the scientists trained mice t detect whether tw drs were cming frm the same surce r separate surces. The mice were able t crrectly distinguish this difference.
As part f the study, the scientists designed new technlgies including a high-speed dr delivery device and equipment that can measure several drs with extremely high precisin. These innvatins will enable mre cmplicated wrk n the lfactry bulb, increasing ur knwledge f hw this brain regin prcesses infrmatin abut the envirnment and influences behavir.
12. What has been previusly assumed impssible fr mammalian brains?
A. Sensing fast and small changes in drs.
B. Respnding t different behavirs prperly.
C. Sptting relatinships amng different drs.
D. Remembering the exact lcatin f fd surces.
13. What d Schaefer’s wrds imply abut the lfactry bulb?
A. It sends signals t the nse.B. It changes an animal’s evlutin.
C. It detects an animal’s surrundings.D. It recgnizes different parts f the brain.
14. Why did the scientists create new technlgies?
A. T investigate the structures f several drs.
B. T learn mre abut hw the lfactry bulb wrks.
C. T develp mre treatments fr the lfactry bulb.
D. T explre the impact f the envirnment n the brain.
15. What des the text mainly tell us?
A. Mice might have a unique lfactry system.
B. Mammalian brains wn cmputatinal pwer.
C. Different structures f drs attract different mice.
D. Rapid changing smells can teach mice abut space.

This left Vadim crawling up and dwn the stairs, an activity that was bth physically and mentally exhausting. He’d ften be late fr meals. If the fd wasn’t already gne by the time he arrived, ther kids wuld steal frm him.
Then, a chain effect began when sme special flks visited the rphanage. They tld him a stry abut a spiritual figure wh advcated lve and frgiveness. This cnversatin helped the 14-year-ld find his faith and, in turn, he had mre hpe than he ever had befre.
Tday, Vadim is n lnger the by subject t fate. He is a father t his wn kids, and his life culdn’t be mre different r better. Over the years, he’s discvered a gift fr expressing himself thrugh art. This inspired Tim Tebw Fundatin, an rganizatin fighting fr the mst vulnerable (脆弱的) peple arund the wrld, t ask if he`d like t create a piece that represented what it lked and felt like fr him t have gne frm “darkness t light.”
The result? A truly remarkable painting that features Vadim, in his wheelchair, leaving behind his ld hme, including the wine cntainer his parents stuffed him int.

The idea that the nrmal human bdy temperature is abut 37℃ was first presented by the German physician Carl Reinhld August Wunderlich in 1851. Since then, it’s becme s widely accepted that it serves as a tuchstne fr health—a diagnstic tl used by physicians and parents as a basic indicatr f whether smene is sick r well. Hwever, it turns ut that this well-established fact isn’t, in fact, crrect—r, t put it mre accurately, human beings have been getting cler ver the years.
Recent studies have shwn that temperature recrds f grups f peple have tended t run lw cmpared t the accepted nrm (标准), s the Stanfrd team, led by Julie Par-snnet,MD, prfessr f medicine and f health research and plicy, decided t d a mre in-depth study t cmpare mdern measurements with histrical recrds t try t identify bdy temperature trends and, perhaps, uncver the reasn why this cling is happening.
Fr their research, the Stanfrd team lked at three distinct data sets frm tw histrical perids. After ging thrugh 677,423 temperature measurements, the team fund that men brn in the 21st century had an average bdy temperature f 0.6℃ lwer than that f thse brn in the early 19th century while mdern wmen shwed an average decrease f 0.03℃ cmpared t thse brn in the 1890s.
As t why this is happening, the researchers say that the mst likely mechanism is a reductin in the human metablic rate (代谢率) due t envirnmental factrs: One pssibility is that imprvements in public health ver 200 years have reduced the incidence f inflammatins (炎症),which prmte metablism. This cmbined with peple living mre cmfrtable lives in mre stable envirnments means that the bdy desn’t have t wrk as hard t stay warm, s the average temperature falls.
”The envirnment that we’re living in has changed, including the temperature in ur hmes, ur cntact with micrrganisms (微生物) and the fd that we have access t. All these things mean that althugh we cnsider human beings as the same fr all f human evlutin, we’re nt the same. We’re actually changing physilgically,” Parsnnet said.
8. What is Carl Reinhld August Wunderlich’s achievement?
A. He set up standards fr human health services.
B. He predicted trends in human bdy temperature.
C. He first used bdy temperature as a health indicatr.
D. He prpsed the standard human bdy temperature.
9. What can we learn abut the Stanfrd team’s study?
A. It shws wmen have a lwer bdy temperature than men.
B. It prves human bdy temperature has drpped at a faster rate.
C. It cmpared histrical and current human bdy temperature data.
D. It suggested updating the definitin f the average bdy temperature.
10. Which f the fllwing is thught t cause the decrease in human bdy temperature?
A. The imprved living cnditins.
B. The cntact with ther creatures.
C. The decline in physically demanding wrk.
D. The adaptatin f humans t climate change.
11. Which ne culd be the best title fr the text?

C. Human bdy temperature has decreased ver the years
D. Human bdy temperature changes with the envirnment

Odrs (气味) are cmplex and ften have changeable structures, and can shw meaningful infrmatin abut an animal’s surrundings, like the lcatin f fd surces. But it has previusly been assumed that mammalian (哺乳动物的) brains can`t fully prcess these tempral changes in smell because they happen s rapidly, much faster than an animal can smell.
Using behaviral experiments, researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and UCL(University Cllege Lndn)fund that mice can, in fact, detect very rapid variatins within drs, at rates previusly nt thught pssible. They als shwed that mice can use this infrmatin t distinguish whether drs are cming frm the same r different surces, even if they are very clse t each ther.
This suggests that the mammalian lfactry (嗅觉的) system is als key in prcessing the awareness f physical space and surrundings, guiding decisins imprtant t survival.
Andreas Schaefer, grup leader f the Sensry Circuits and Neurtechnlgy Labratry at UCL says: “Frm an evlutinary (进化的) pint f view ur findings make sense as they help t explain why there is a lt f cmputatinal pwer within the lfactry bulb, the part f the brain where the nse sends signals t. It’s nt nly prcessing chemicals frm drs but als calculating infrmatin abut physical distance and surces. It wuld have been strange fr evlutin t create such prcessing pwer in this part f the brain if it were nt being used t help the species survive.”
In ne key experiment, the scientists trained mice t detect whether tw drs were cming frm the same surce r separate surces. The mice were able t crrectly distinguish this difference.
As part f the study, the scientists designed new technlgies including a high-speed dr delivery device and equipment that can measure several drs with extremely high precisin. These innvatins will enable mre cmplicated wrk n the lfactry bulb, increasing ur knwledge f hw this brain regin prcesses infrmatin abut the envirnment and influences behavir.
12. What has been previusly assumed impssible fr mammalian brains?
A. Sensing fast and small changes in drs.
B. Respnding t different behavirs prperly.
C. Sptting relatinships amng different drs.
D. Remembering the exact lcatin f fd surces.
13. What d Schaefer’s wrds imply abut the lfactry bulb?
A. It sends signals t the nse.B. It changes an animal’s evlutin.
C. It detects an animal’s surrundings.D. It recgnizes different parts f the brain.
14. Why did the scientists create new technlgies?
A. T investigate the structures f several drs.
B. T learn mre abut hw the lfactry bulb wrks.
C. T develp mre treatments fr the lfactry bulb.
D. T explre the impact f the envirnment n the brain.
15. What des the text mainly tell us?
A. Mice might have a unique lfactry system.
B. Mammalian brains wn cmputatinal pwer.
C. Different structures f drs attract different mice.
D. Rapid changing smells can teach mice abut space.
