Katalin Kariku alng with her clleague Drew Weissman wn the Nbel Prize in Physilgy r Medicine in 2023 fr the develpment f mRNA technlgy.
Kariku was brn in January 1955, in a small village in Hungary. She had an ambitin frm early n t becme a scientist. As a yung adult, she became interested in messenger RNA, which carries DNA instructins t the prtein-making engine f cells. She hped that mRNA culd play a key rle in the treatment f varius diseases. It became her missin t make her dream a reality t help cure patients. Hwever, Kariku faced a shrtage f funding fr her research in her cuntry, and she then faced the chice f stpping and ding smething nt cnnected t her missin r cntinuing her research at the price f having t leave her cuntry.
After searching fr psts and schlarships wrldwide, Kariku accepted an ffer frm Temple University in Philadelphia fr a pstdctral fellwship. Kariku and her husband gave up everything they had in their hmeland and bught a ne-way ticket t the U. S., where they knew n ne.
She was initially n track t becme a full prfessr but received repeated fund rejectins. Undeterred by the prblems and challenges, she chse t cntinue her research. By fcusing n what mattered t her every day, she “accidentally” met her wrk partner Dre w Weissman wh was als interested in mRNA. They teamed up t wrk n mRNA and published papers abut their grundbreaking discvery fr years. Then the pandemic hit the wrld. The changed mRNA technlgy Kariku and Weissman invented was then used in vaccines(疫苗) that prevented the infectin effectively.
Kariku’s life is a testament(证明) t finding ne’s passin and then pursuing it every single day. Many f us knw what we are fnd f, but we are nt gd self-mtivatrs n a daily basis.
24. What can we learn abut Kariku frm paragraph 2?
A. She had a tlerant mind. B. She lnged t be a dctr.
C. She was fnd f wrld turs. D. She had a clear sense f purpse.
25. What des the underlined part “Undeterred by” in paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Nt discuraged by. B. Being unaware f.
C. Nt mtivated by. D. Being ashamed f.
26. What is prbably the main cntributin f Kariku?
A. Simplifying the mRNA technlgy.
B. Making the structure f mRNA clear.
C. Develping a vaccine fr a serius disease.
D. Laying the grundwrk fr mRNA vaccines.
27. What lessn can we learn frm Kariku's success?
A. Nthing seek, nthing find.
B. Tw heads are better than ne.
C. Where there's a will, there's a way.
D. Necessity is the mther f inventin.

AI systems can nw learn and use human language, but they learn frm astrnmical amunts f language input — much mre than children receive when learning hw t understand and speak a language. The best AI systems are trained n text datasets cntaining trillins f wrds, whereas children receive just millins per year.
But a recent study suggests AI systems can acquire sme language with a small set f clues. Researchers tk advantage f an existing library f camera ftage that captured ne baby's experience. The baby named Sam wre a headcam(头戴式设备) fr 61 hurs between the ages f six mnths and 25 mnths. The headcam recrded vide and audi while Sam tk part in activities including playing, eating and reading. The researchers fed their AI mdel individual vide images and a written text f what peple were saying at that time. They wndered what the mdel wuld learn and whether it culd prvide insights int the language acquisitin prcess in children.
Acrss multiple tests, the AI mdel crrectly matched wrds with images 62 percent f the time. The AI was als able t match wrds it had learned with representative images that it had never seen befre, such as a cmmn image f an apple, abut 35percent f the time. Wrds including “car” and “sand” were frequently recgnized by the AI, but it struggled with bjects that might have mre variatins, such as “rm”.
“The findings demnstrate hw sme aspects f wrd meaning are learnable by assciatin. Hwever, the study didn’t prve hw children actually acquire wrds,” Jshua Tenenbaum, a scientist wh was nt invlved in the research, says. “The study als fcused just n the names f bjects — it didn’t shw that the AI culd learn abut verbs, structures and ther aspects f language thrugh the recrdings,” anther scientist adds. With future research, similar studies f learning culd pull back the curtain n the mysterius prcess f language acquisitin.
28. What phenmenn abut AI systems and children is mainly described in paragraph 1?
A. The data gap in language acquisitin.
B. Sharp distinctin s in language learning ability.
C. The difficulty f prcessing large numbers f wrds.
D. Inaccessibility f certain datasets n language learning.
29. Hw des the AI mdel learn language in the study?
A. By reading and playing with Sam fr 61 hurs.
B. By cmmunicating with Sam fr several mnths.
C. By analyzing a large number f wrds spken by Sam.
D. By engaging in Sam's daily experiences thrugh recrdings.
30. Which f the fllwing wrds might the AI mdel mst prbably struggle t match?
A. Bttle. B. Banana. C. Ty. D. Car.
31. What des the last paragraph mainly talk abut?
A. The limitatins f the study. B. Different aspects f language.
C. Imprvements f the Al mdel. D. The directins fr further study.
D
Just like any ther living thing, plants can get stressed. Usually, it's cnditins like heat and drught that lead t this stress, and when they're stressed, plants might nt grw as large r prduce as much. Many scientists have tried genetically changing plants. But plants changed fr higher crp utput tend t have a lwer stress tlerance because they put mre energy int grwth than int prtectin against stresses. Similarly, imprving the ability f plants t survive stress ften results in plants that prduce less because they put mre energy int prtectin than int grwth.
Our lab instead fcuses n hw plants and bacteria sense ethylene(乙烯) and hw it interacts with ther chemicals t regulate plant develpment. Fr this experiment, we expsed the seeds t ethylene gas fr several days in the dark t see what effect this might have. After gathering data n these seedlings (yung plants), we transferred them t a place with much light.
Several days later, sme lab members unexpectedly bserved that the plants briefly treated with ethylene had larger leaves as well as strnger rt systems than plants that had nt been expsed t ethylene. These plants cntinued grwing at a faster rate thrughut their whle lifetime.
But what made ur bservatin even mre pleasing is that the brief ethylene treatment als increased tlerance t varius stresses such as high temperature and lw xygen cnditins. Lng-term effects n grwth and stress tlerance frm brief expsure t a stimulus(刺激物) are ften called priming effects(启动效应).
S what's the underlying lgic? What we've fund is that ethylene increases phtsynthesis(a prcess by which plants gain chemical energy frm inrganic matters).Part f phtsynthesis includes what is called carbn fixatin, where plants pull carbn frm the atmsphere and use the CO₂ as building blcks t make sugars t fuel their activities.
Understanding this is mre imprtant than ever and culd help imprve crp prductin t feed the wrld's ppulatin.
32. What is the challenge faced by scientists behind genetically changed plants?
A. Guaranteeing a healthy envirnment fr the plants.
B. Balancing plants' prductivity and stress resistance.
C. Raising survival rates f genetically changed plants.
D. Identifying stress factrs affecting genetically changed plants.
33. What serves as a stimulus in the authr's experiment?
A. Ethylene. B. Bacteria. C. Darkness. D. Sunlight.
34. What is the rle f carbn fixatin in phtsynthesis?
A. It changes sugars int CO₂.
B. It makes plants absrb much sunlight.
C. It helps plants generate energy frm CO₂.
D. It enhances the prcess f ethylene priming.
35. Which f fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Why d Sme Plants Have a Higher Stress Level?
B. Emplying a Chemical Early n May Help Feed the Wrld
C. Hw d Priming Effects Increase Phtsynthesis in Plants?
D. Expsure t Ethylene is a Gd Way t Prtect Plants

By learning t accept and acknwledge ther peple's bundaries, yu can start t think abut hw yu can imprve yur wn cnnectins with thers. Ultimately, effective bundaries can leave yu bth feeling empwered and result in a healthier, mre satisfying relatinship.
A. Take time t breathe and listen.
B. When smene vices a restrictin, yu might feel a sense f shame r frustratin.
C. Allw them space t vice their needs and wants.

I was seated in a crner f the furth-grade classrm, feeling lst. My parents had transplanted me frm my ld village schl t this fancy barding schl in Bangalre.

Just then there was a lud cheer frm my classmates that pulled me back frm my memries.

She then suggested we d sme activities n ur wn withut making a lud nise. I sn learned that this was Miss Thmas, better knwn as the Sprts Miss.
All the girls agreed cheerfully and sn gathered in small grups. Sme chatted r giggled while thers read bks r were seen writing. As a newcmer, I believed it was t early fr me t jin them. With nthing better t d, I pulled ut a sheet f paper, n which I scrawled(潦草地涂鸦) rlling hills, swaying palms, the path that led t my ld schl, and my teacher with her lng hair. While ding this, I sensed a strng feeling f lss, tears welling up in my eyes.
I was s absrbed in drawing my ld friends ne by ne that I didn't even ntice Miss Thmas standing by my side. The mment I raised my head t wipe my tears, I saw her there. I nearly died f embarrassment and tried t hide the paper frm her. Hwever, she asked me if I'd like t share it with the class. After a few secnds' thught, I agreed.

Katalin Kariku alng with her clleague Drew Weissman wn the Nbel Prize in Physilgy r Medicine in 2023 fr the develpment f mRNA technlgy.
Kariku was brn in January 1955, in a small village in Hungary. She had an ambitin frm early n t becme a scientist. As a yung adult, she became interested in messenger RNA, which carries DNA instructins t the prtein-making engine f cells. She hped that mRNA culd play a key rle in the treatment f varius diseases. It became her missin t make her dream a reality t help cure patients. Hwever, Kariku faced a shrtage f funding fr her research in her cuntry, and she then faced the chice f stpping and ding smething nt cnnected t her missin r cntinuing her research at the price f having t leave her cuntry.
After searching fr psts and schlarships wrldwide, Kariku accepted an ffer frm Temple University in Philadelphia fr a pstdctral fellwship. Kariku and her husband gave up everything they had in their hmeland and bught a ne-way ticket t the U. S., where they knew n ne.
She was initially n track t becme a full prfessr but received repeated fund rejectins. Undeterred by the prblems and challenges, she chse t cntinue her research. By fcusing n what mattered t her every day, she “accidentally” met her wrk partner Dre w Weissman wh was als interested in mRNA. They teamed up t wrk n mRNA and published papers abut their grundbreaking discvery fr years. Then the pandemic hit the wrld. The changed mRNA technlgy Kariku and Weissman invented was then used in vaccines(疫苗) that prevented the infectin effectively.
Kariku’s life is a testament(证明) t finding ne’s passin and then pursuing it every single day. Many f us knw what we are fnd f, but we are nt gd self-mtivatrs n a daily basis.
24. What can we learn abut Kariku frm paragraph 2?
A. She had a tlerant mind. B. She lnged t be a dctr.
C. She was fnd f wrld turs. D. She had a clear sense f purpse.
25. What des the underlined part “Undeterred by” in paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Nt discuraged by. B. Being unaware f.
C. Nt mtivated by. D. Being ashamed f.
26. What is prbably the main cntributin f Kariku?
A. Simplifying the mRNA technlgy.
B. Making the structure f mRNA clear.
C. Develping a vaccine fr a serius disease.
D. Laying the grundwrk fr mRNA vaccines.
27. What lessn can we learn frm Kariku's success?
A. Nthing seek, nthing find.

AI systems can nw learn and use human language, but they learn frm astrnmical amunts f language input — much mre than children receive when learning hw t understand and speak a language. The best AI systems are trained n text datasets cntaining trillins f wrds, whereas children receive just millins per year.
But a recent study suggests AI systems can acquire sme language with a small set f clues. Researchers tk advantage f an existing library f camera ftage that captured ne baby's experience. The baby named Sam wre a headcam(头戴式设备) fr 61 hurs between the ages f six mnths and 25 mnths. The headcam recrded vide and audi while Sam tk part in activities including playing, eating and reading. The researchers fed their AI mdel individual vide images and a written text f what peple were saying at that time. They wndered what the mdel wuld learn and whether it culd prvide insights int the language acquisitin prcess in children.
Acrss multiple tests, the AI mdel crrectly matched wrds with images 62 percent f the time. The AI was als able t match wrds it had learned with representative images that it had never seen befre, such as a cmmn image f an apple, abut 35percent f the time. Wrds including “car” and “sand” were frequently recgnized by the AI, but it struggled with bjects that might have mre variatins, such as “rm”.
“The findings demnstrate hw sme aspects f wrd meaning are learnable by assciatin. Hwever, the study didn’t prve hw children actually acquire wrds,” Jshua Tenenbaum, a scientist wh was nt invlved in the research, says. “The study als fcused just n the names f bjects — it didn’t shw that the AI culd learn abut verbs, structures and ther aspects f language thrugh the recrdings,” anther scientist adds. With future research, similar studies f learning culd pull back the curtain n the mysterius prcess f language acquisitin.
28. What phenmenn abut AI systems and children is mainly described in paragraph 1?
A. The data gap in language acquisitin.
B. Sharp distinctin s in language learning ability.
C. The difficulty f prcessing large numbers f wrds.
D. Inaccessibility f certain datasets n language learning.
29. Hw des the AI mdel learn language in the study?
A. By reading and playing with Sam fr 61 hurs.
B. By cmmunicating with Sam fr several mnths.
C. By analyzing a large number f wrds spken by Sam.
D. By engaging in Sam's daily experiences thrugh recrdings.
30. Which f the fllwing wrds might the AI mdel mst prbably struggle t match?
A. Bttle. B. Banana. C. Ty. D. Car.
31. What des the last paragraph mainly talk abut?
A. The limitatins f the study. B. Different aspects f language.
C. Imprvements f the Al mdel. D. The directins fr further study.
D
Just like any ther living thing, plants can get stressed. Usually, it's cnditins like heat and drught that lead t this stress, and when they're stressed, plants might nt grw as large r prduce as much. Many scientists have tried genetically changing plants. But plants changed fr higher crp utput tend t have a lwer stress tlerance because they put mre energy int grwth than int prtectin against stresses. Similarly, imprving the ability f plants t survive stress ften results in plants that prduce less because they put mre energy int prtectin than int grwth.
Our lab instead fcuses n hw plants and bacteria sense ethylene(乙烯) and hw it interacts with ther chemicals t regulate plant develpment. Fr this experiment, we expsed the seeds t ethylene gas fr several days in the dark t see what effect this might have. After gathering data n these seedlings (yung plants), we transferred them t a place with much light.
Several days later, sme lab members unexpectedly bserved that the plants briefly treated with ethylene had larger leaves as well as strnger rt systems than plants that had nt been expsed t ethylene. These plants cntinued grwing at a faster rate thrughut their whle lifetime.
But what made ur bservatin even mre pleasing is that the brief ethylene treatment als increased tlerance t varius stresses such as high temperature and lw xygen cnditins. Lng-term effects n grwth and stress tlerance frm brief expsure t a stimulus(刺激物) are ften called priming effects(启动效应).
S what's the underlying lgic? What we've fund is that ethylene increases phtsynthesis(a prcess by which plants gain chemical energy frm inrganic matters).Part f phtsynthesis includes what is called carbn fixatin, where plants pull carbn frm the atmsphere and use the CO₂ as building blcks t make sugars t fuel their activities.
Understanding this is mre imprtant than ever and culd help imprve crp prductin t feed the wrld's ppulatin.
32. What is the challenge faced by scientists behind genetically changed plants?
A. Guaranteeing a healthy envirnment fr the plants.
B. Balancing plants' prductivity and stress resistance.
C. Raising survival rates f genetically changed plants.
D. Identifying stress factrs affecting genetically changed plants.
33. What serves as a stimulus in the authr's experiment?
A. Ethylene. B. Bacteria. C. Darkness. D. Sunlight.
34. What is the rle f carbn fixatin in phtsynthesis?
A. It changes sugars int CO₂.
B. It makes plants absrb much sunlight.
C. It helps plants generate energy frm CO₂.
D. It enhances the prcess f ethylene priming.
35. Which f fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Why d Sme Plants Have a Higher Stress Level?
B. Emplying a Chemical Early n May Help Feed the Wrld
C. Hw d Priming Effects Increase Phtsynthesis in Plants?
D. Expsure t Ethylene is a Gd Way t Prtect Plants

I was seated in a crner f the furth-grade classrm, feeling lst. My parents had transplanted me frm my ld village schl t this fancy barding schl in Bangalre. With everything strange arund me, I missed my hmetwn and my ld friends because there was nw n warm hme t rush back t after schl and n ne t share tales with. I culdn't help thinking f the happy mments I had spent befre mving here. I didn't even knw hw lng it wuld take t adapt myself t the cmpletely new envirnment. Or culd I?
Just then there was a lud cheer frm my classmates that pulled me back frm my memries. A tall, slim teacher in a shirt and a starched skirt came by, annuncing that the math teacher was absent and that we wuld have a free perid. She then suggested we d sme activities n ur wn withut making a lud nise. I sn learned that this was Miss Thmas, better knwn as the Sprts Miss.
All the girls agreed cheerfully and sn gathered in small grups. Sme chatted r giggled while thers read bks r were seen writing. As a newcmer, I believed it was t early fr me t jin them. With nthing better t d, I pulled ut a sheet f paper, n which I scrawled(潦草地涂鸦) rlling hills, swaying palms, the path that led t my ld schl, and my teacher with her lng hair. While ding this, I sensed a strng feeling f lss, tears welling up in my eyes.
I was s absrbed in drawing my ld friends ne by ne that I didn't even ntice Miss Thmas standing by my side. The mment I raised my head t wipe my tears, I saw her there. I nearly died f embarrassment and tried t hide the paper frm her. Hwever, she asked me if I'd like t share it with the class. After a few secnds' thught, I agreed.
