In turn, Little EGG helps prmte yung talent by shwcasing their wrk.
Nt lng after pening, David Griffin, a prfessr and artist f Ontari Cllege f Art and Design University stepped int the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin regards him as smene special: “a strng yung artist with a really excellent idea—creating a space fr shwing the natural genius f yung peple. It- was a vid（空白） in the art wrld.” There Nalin asked Griffin t help judge an upcming cmpetitin. The first juried shw was last spring, and five- year- ld Jack Gamble wn fr his abstract painting titled Pkemn.

On a recent afternn, dzens f elderly farmers were playing chess in a curtyard, a cmmn scene at the Madngchuan Twnship Zhatai Village Mutual Supprt Nursing Hme in Yan ' an, a hilly part f Nrthwest China's Shaanxi prvince.
There are n caregivers in sight. Instead, the residents lk after ne anther at the self- service nursing facility, which was rebuilt frm a deserted primary schl in Madngchuan twnship. The yunger nes grw vegetables in a small path f land nearby. They ck utdrs using a shared kitchen, and the fd is delivered t thse with mbility issues. After meals, many play chess r chat at their leisure. Lcal authrities als hired a retired village dctr t versee the facility s that the residents n lnger have t g t the hspital fr less severe health prblems such as cld and fever.
“They were enjying themselves in the mment, and leading rather independent lives,” Zha Liwen, secretary - general f Taikang icai Fundatin, said f her first impressin abut the residents during a visit in 2019. The Beijing- based charity ffered help by dnating I millin yuan t the nursing hme. When she arrived, the senirs, all empty- nesters wh are either childless r have children wrking in big cities, were wrapping dumplings tgether.
The scene was a sharp cntrast frm life in the area mre than a decade ag. Village elders used t live lnely lives, scattered（分散） amng the remte area and unable t access hspitals and ther public services. Then in 2013, a fld washed their hmes away, frcing them t mve int the nursing facility.
The nursing hme in Yan'an is ne f the best examples f China's increasing effrts t take advantage f the strength f “relatinship - based cmmunities” in rural areas t ensure fast - graying residents are cared fr. Cmpared with a mre cmmercial r rule - based sciety in cities, rural cmmunities in China are knwn t perate thrugh persnal cnnectins and mutual trust. The self- sufficient, interdependent culture displayed by the nursing hme is being supprted by authrities t deal with aging in the cuntryside.
28. What d the elderly residents d in the nursing facility?
A. They use their separate kitchens. B. They enjy their leisure activities.
C. They share advanced medical services. D. They emply caregivers t lk after them.
29. What apprach des the nursing hme in Yan'an take t deal with the rural aging'
A. Fllwing strict regulatins. B. Develping mutual cperatin.
C. Cnducting cmmercial strategies. D. Prmting individual independence.
30. What is the authr's attitude t t h self- service nursing hme?
A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Favrable. D. Disapprving.
31. Which is the mst suitable title fr the text?
A. Rural Revival: China's Apprach t Aging Ppulatin
B. Prmting traditinal values: A Tale f Aging in Rural China
C. Bridging Generatin Gaps: The Stry f Yan'an's Nursing Hme.
D. Relatinship- Based Cmmunity; A Nursing Hme in Rural China

Here's a quick quiz. Persn A des a favr fr yu. Persn B asks yu t d a favr fr him. Wh d yu tend t like mre? Surprisingly, the answer is Persn B. This quirk（怪癖） f human nature is knwn as the Ben Franklin Effect.
Benjamin Franklin came acrss the phenmenn in 1736 when serving as a clerk t the Pennsylvania Assembly. A pwerful member didn't care fr Franklin and threatened t make life miserable fr him. What t d? Instead f winning him ver with sweet talk, Franklin asked if he culd brrw a rare and valuable bk the man wned. This request altered the man'- s attitude and paved the way fr their friendship. Franklin's takeaway: “He that has nce dne yu a kindness will be ready t d yu anther, than he whm yu yurself have bliged.”
Several studies have cnfirmed this. But hw can we explain the Ben Franklin Effect? Sme psychlgists refer t cgnitive dissnance（失调）. It's difficult t hld tw cntradictry thughts at the same time. It makes us uncmfrtable. We reslve this tensin by changing ur mind. “I dn't like Je, but I am ding him a favr,” we might think. “S maybe I d like him.”
While cgnitive dissnance explains a lt, it alne desn't explain the Ben Franklin Effect. One 2015 study fund that it was, rather, the affiliative （亲和的） mtive that the requests cnvey. That is, we humans want t maintain gd relatins with ther humans, and ne way t achieve this is by ding favrs fr ther. This explains a lt abut altruistic behavir. We like being useful and, by extensin, we like thse wh give us the pprtunity t d s. It's in ur genes.
Yet there is much we still dn't knw abut the Ben Franklin Effect. Des it apply equally acrss cultures? Is there a pint beynd which asking a favr makes yu less, nt mre likable? Asking t brrw a bk is ne thing; asking t brrw a car is anther.
32. Why des the authr mentin Benjamin Franklin's experience?
A. T illustrate a dilemma in making chices.
B. T suggest a way f striking up friendships.
C. T stress the imprtance f strategic requests.
D. T intrduce the rigin f the Ben Franklin Effect.
33. What is a reasn fr peple's tendency t like thse asking fr favrs?
A. Reducing the tensin caused by scial cntact.
B. Increasing the chance f getting help in return.
C. Aviding the discmfrt frm cnflicting thughts.
D. Establishing a cperative cmmunity f shared trust.
34. What des the underlined wrd “altruistic” prbably mean in paragraph 4?
A. Selfless. B. Implite. C. Aggressive. D. Respnsible.
35. What des the authr think f the Ben Franklin Effect?
A. It makes little sense. B. It applies t mst cultures.
C. It has situatinal limitatins. D. It has great practical significance.

Why are Plice Officers Called Cps?
Plice fficers are ften referred t as ps. 36 Sme argue the term is shrtened frm “cpper” and cmes frm cpper badges（徽章） wrn by a pliceman. Others say that it stands fr “Cnstabulary f Plice”.
General agreement n the wrd rigins f “cp”, hwever, suggests that the term is based mre n the pliceman's jb than n his clthing r jb title. In Latin, the verb capere can be defined as “t capture.” In French, the verb is caper. “T cp” in English is t seize r t take. 37
Sme als believe that the Dutch wrd kapen, which als lsely translates t “t steal- r take”, is related t plicemen being called cppers r cps. Essentially, the plice frce was there t take criminals ff the streets. 38 And since American English especially draws frm German, French, and Latin, the specific language rigin f kapen r capere creates a ready path t the term “cp”.
39 And it is n lnger cnsidered rude. Hwever, certain ther terms—fr· plice fficers are definitely unwelcme. While British Plice might nt mind being called “bbbies”, n plice members like t be referred t as “pigs” r the “fuzz”. Sme dn't mind the term the “heat” as applied t the whle plice- frce, but the plice frce des nt generally take kindly t terms given t them by criminals.
The term “cp” is in such cmmn usage nw that a shw dcumenting their wrk n the jb is called Cps. Even thugh J. Edgar Hver nce highly bjected t. the term, it is nw fine t- refer t a pliceman r a plicewman as a cp. 40
A. The term is slightly less familiar t peple
B. S the Latin, Dutch, and French terms are all similar.
C. These wrds define sme f what a plice fficer des.
D. The prfessin f a plice fficer was nt respected then.
E. But the rigins f this nickname are smething f a debate.
F. Hwever, the term “plice fficer” is generally mst crrect.
G. Tday It is apprpriate t call members f the plice frce cps

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
When starting my sixth- grade year, I was nervus abut many things. But nthing cmpared t the prblem that I gt t the age where my vice started changing. At first, the vice getting deep excited me. But then I learned befre getting deeper, it can crack（变嘶哑）.
The first time it happened I was s embarrassed. Surprisingly, my friends didn't make fun f me. In fact, they didn't even mentin it. But in my self- cnscius sixth- grade mind I was certain they made fun f me behind my back. They weren't having the same prblem.
After my first vice crack experience, I was determined t make sure it wuldn't t happen again. At least nt in public. S, except fr strategic times I said, “cl” and “yeah”, I didn't talk. My lgic was, “If I dn't use my vice, it cannt crack.” Hwever, I culdn't t g withut talking frever. I needed a new slutin.
I began clearing my thrat befre speaking, which actually seemed t help. Limiting hw much I spke and clearing my vice made me much less stressful. This was great but there was a larger prblem. I was much mre scared abut having a vice crack during class. My class had many new kids I'd never spken with. I didn't want their first impressins f me t be based n a vice crack.
Unfrtunately, ne day my cncern came true. It was abut tw mnths after the beginning f the term. On the day it happened everything was the same as always until 1 gt int the classrm. I nticed that we had a substitute teacher（代课老师） and immediately started thinking abut hw he wuld take attendance. My permanent teacher never had t, since he already knew each student, I panicked. S many thughts rushed thrugh my mind that I culdn't think straight. I calmed myself dwn by telling myself that I nly had t say ne wrd “Here”. “Easy enugh, right?” I thught s until my name was called. I did my rutine—cleared my thrat, tk a breath, and said, “Here. ” The nly prblem was that while saying this, I had the wrst vice crack in the histry f vice cracks.

Versin 1:
The whle class turned t lk at me. My face burned with embarrassment as I felt each pair f eyes fixed n me. The substitute teacher's puzzled expressin nly added t the awkward mment. I wished the grund wuld pen up and swallw me whle, but all I culd d was shift uncmfrtably in my seat. The whispers that fllwed were like knives t my self- esteem. When the bell finally rang fr the break, I rushed ut f the classrm, feeling utterly humiliated. It seemed like the whle schl nw knew abut my vice crack. （87 wrds）
“Yu knw, the vice prblem yu met in class is nrmal,” a classmate came t me and said. His reassuring wrds caught me ff guard. As he shared his wn similar experiences, I realized I wasn't alne in this struggle. Knwing that thers were ging thrugh the same thing made me feel seen and understd. His empathy sparked a sense f team spirit and supprt that I hadn't anticipated. Gradually, I let g f the fear f judgment and started t embrace my vice cracks as a natural part f grwing up. This newfund sense f cnfidence and self- acceptance transfrmed my interactins at schl, making me feel mre at ease and cnnected with my peers. （97 wrds）
Versin 2:

He chuckled and said, “Well, that's quite a lvely yung vice!” The class laughed friendly alng with him, and I managed a weak smile, wndering whether they were just trying t make me feel better. Finally, the bell rang and I walked ut t have sme fresh air. （94 wrds）
“Yu knw, the vice prblem yu met in class is nrmal,” a classmate came t me and said. “Everyne ges thrugh it.

By the time Nalin Kamat was 13, the Trnt teen was well n his way t becming a wrking artist. He had already had his first shw at a lcal art center, shwcasing his series titled “Dispsitins”, which illustrated his wn grwth during adlescence （青少年） .

That' s when he hit an' bstacle, discvering in the very last line f a multi- page applicatin that the minimum age fr submissin was 18.
That rejectin became a mtivatin fr creatin. I thught it' d be really cl if I culd prvide the pprtunity t mre yung artists,” says Nalin, nw 15. With the supprt f his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a strefrnt and funded Little EGG Gallery, which is nw prfitable enugh t make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee fr any displayed wrk. In turn, Little EGG helps prmte yung talent by shwcasing their wrk.
Nt lng after pening, David Griffin, a prfessr and artist f Ontari Cllege f Art and Design University stepped int the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin regards him as smene special: “a strng yung artist with a really excellent idea—creating a space fr shwing the natural genius f yung peple. It- was a vid（空白） in the art wrld.” There Nalin asked Griffin t help judge an upcming cmpetitin. The first juried shw was last spring, and five- year- ld Jack Gamble wn fr his abstract painting titled Pkemn.
As Nalin was busy with schl, life and his wn art, Little EGG is mstly pen by appintment nly, but he's still cmmitted t grwing it with seasnal and themed shws scheduled a few times a year. 24.

On a recent afternn, dzens f elderly farmers were playing chess in a curtyard, a cmmn scene at the Madngchuan Twnship Zhatai Village Mutual Supprt Nursing Hme in Yan ' an, a hilly part f Nrthwest China's Shaanxi prvince.
There are n caregivers in sight. Instead, the residents lk after ne anther at the self- service nursing facility, which was rebuilt frm a deserted primary schl in Madngchuan twnship. The yunger nes grw vegetables in a small path f land nearby. They ck utdrs using a shared kitchen, and the fd is delivered t thse with mbility issues. After meals, many play chess r chat at their leisure. Lcal authrities als hired a retired village dctr t versee the facility s that the residents n lnger have t g t the hspital fr less severe health prblems such as cld and fever.
“They were enjying themselves in the mment, and leading rather independent lives,” Zha Liwen, secretary - general f Taikang icai Fundatin, said f her first impressin abut the residents during a visit in 2019. The Beijing- based charity ffered help by dnating I millin yuan t the nursing hme. When she arrived, the senirs, all empty- nesters wh are either childless r have children wrking in big cities, were wrapping dumplings tgether.
The scene was a sharp cntrast frm life in the area mre than a decade ag. Village elders used t live lnely lives, scattered（分散） amng the remte area and unable t access hspitals and ther public services. Then in 2013, a fld washed their hmes away, frcing them t mve int the nursing facility.
The nursing hme in Yan'an is ne f the best examples f China's increasing effrts t take advantage f the strength f “relatinship - based cmmunities” in rural areas t ensure fast - graying residents are cared fr. Cmpared with a mre cmmercial r rule - based sciety in cities, rural cmmunities in China are knwn t perate thrugh persnal cnnectins and mutual trust. The self- sufficient, interdependent culture displayed by the nursing hme is being supprted by authrities t deal with aging in the cuntryside.
28. What d the elderly residents d in the nursing facility?
A. They use their separate kitchens. B. They enjy their leisure activities.
C. They share advanced medical services. D. They emply caregivers t lk after them.
29. What apprach des the nursing hme in Yan'an take t deal with the rural aging'
A. Fllwing strict regulatins. B. Develping mutual cperatin.
C. Cnducting cmmercial strategies. D. Prmting individual independence.
30. What is the authr's attitude t t h self- service nursing hme?
A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Favrable. D. Disapprving.
31. Which is the mst suitable title fr the text?
A. Rural Revival: China's Apprach t Aging Ppulatin
B. Prmting traditinal values: A Tale f Aging in Rural China
C. Bridging Generatin Gaps: The Stry f Yan'an's Nursing Hme.

Here's a quick quiz. Persn A des a favr fr yu. Persn B asks yu t d a favr fr him. Wh d yu tend t like mre? Surprisingly, the answer is Persn B. This quirk（怪癖） f human nature is knwn as the Ben Franklin Effect.
Benjamin Franklin came acrss the phenmenn in 1736 when serving as a clerk t the Pennsylvania Assembly. A pwerful member didn't care fr Franklin and threatened t make life miserable fr him. What t d? Instead f winning him ver with sweet talk, Franklin asked if he culd brrw a rare and valuable bk the man wned. This request altered the man'- s attitude and paved the way fr their friendship. Franklin's takeaway: “He that has nce dne yu a kindness will be ready t d yu anther, than he whm yu yurself have bliged.”
Several studies have cnfirmed this. But hw can we explain the Ben Franklin Effect? Sme psychlgists refer t cgnitive dissnance（失调）. It's difficult t hld tw cntradictry thughts at the same time. It makes us uncmfrtable. We reslve this tensin by changing ur mind. “I dn't like Je, but I am ding him a favr,” we might think. “S maybe I d like him.”
While cgnitive dissnance explains a lt, it alne desn't explain the Ben Franklin Effect. One 2015 study fund that it was, rather, the affiliative （亲和的） mtive that the requests cnvey. That is, we humans want t maintain gd relatins with ther humans, and ne way t achieve this is by ding favrs fr ther. This explains a lt abut altruistic behavir. We like being useful and, by extensin, we like thse wh give us the pprtunity t d s. It's in ur genes.
Yet there is much we still dn't knw abut the Ben Franklin Effect. Des it apply equally acrss cultures? Is there a pint beynd which asking a favr makes yu less, nt mre likable? Asking t brrw a bk is ne thing; asking t brrw a car is anther.
32. Why des the authr mentin Benjamin Franklin's experience?
A. T illustrate a dilemma in making chices.
B. T suggest a way f striking up friendships.
C. T stress the imprtance f strategic requests.
D. T intrduce the rigin f the Ben Franklin Effect.
33. What is a reasn fr peple's tendency t like thse asking fr favrs?
A. Reducing the tensin caused by scial cntact.
B. Increasing the chance f getting help in return.
C. Aviding the discmfrt frm cnflicting thughts.
D. Establishing a cperative cmmunity f shared trust.
34. What des the underlined wrd “altruistic” prbably mean in paragraph 4?
A. Selfless. B. Implite. C. Aggressive. D. Respnsible.
35. What des the authr think f the Ben Franklin Effect?
A. It makes little sense. B. It applies t mst cultures.
C. It has situatinal limitatins. D. It has great practical significance.

Why are Plice Officers Called Cps?
Plice fficers are ften referred t as ps. 36 Sme argue the term is shrtened frm “cpper” and cmes frm cpper badges（徽章） wrn by a pliceman. Others say that it stands fr “Cnstabulary f Plice”.
General agreement n the wrd rigins f “cp”, hwever, suggests that the term is based mre n the pliceman's jb than n his clthing r jb title. In Latin, the verb capere can be defined as “t capture.” In French, the verb is caper. “T cp” in English is t seize r t take. 37
Sme als believe that the Dutch wrd kapen, which als lsely translates t “t steal- r take”, is related t plicemen being called cppers r cps. Essentially, the plice frce was there t take criminals ff the streets. 38 And since American English especially draws frm German, French, and Latin, the specific language rigin f kapen r capere creates a ready path t the term “cp”.
39 And it is n lnger cnsidered rude. Hwever, certain ther terms—fr· plice fficers are definitely unwelcme. While British Plice might nt mind being called “bbbies”, n plice members like t be referred t as “pigs” r the “fuzz”. Sme dn't mind the term the “heat” as applied t the whle plice- frce, but the plice frce des nt generally take kindly t terms given t them by criminals.
The term “cp” is in such cmmn usage nw that a shw dcumenting their wrk n the jb is called Cps. Even thugh J. Edgar Hver nce highly bjected t. the term, it is nw fine t- refer t a pliceman r a plicewman as a cp. 40
A. The term is slightly less familiar t peple
B. S the Latin, Dutch, and French terms are all similar.
C. These wrds define sme f what a plice fficer des.
D. The prfessin f a plice fficer was nt respected then.
E. But the rigins f this nickname are smething f a debate.
F. Hwever, the term “plice fficer” is generally mst crrect.
G. Tday It is apprpriate t call members f the plice frce cps

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
When starting my sixth- grade year, I was nervus abut many things. But nthing cmpared t the prblem that I gt t the age where my vice started changing. At first, the vice getting deep excited me. But then I learned befre getting deeper, it can crack（变嘶哑）.
The first time it happened I was s embarrassed. Surprisingly, my friends didn't make fun f me. In fact, they didn't even mentin it. But in my self- cnscius sixth- grade mind I was certain they made fun f me behind my back. They weren't having the same prblem.
After my first vice crack experience, I was determined t make sure it wuldn't t happen again. At least nt in public. S, except fr strategic times I said, “cl” and “yeah”, I didn't talk. My lgic was, “If I dn't use my vice, it cannt crack.” Hwever, I culdn't t g withut talking frever. I needed a new slutin.
I began clearing my thrat befre speaking, which actually seemed t help. Limiting hw much I spke and clearing my vice made me much less stressful. This was great but there was a larger prblem. I was much mre scared abut having a vice crack during class. My class had many new kids I'd never spken with. I didn't want their first impressins f me t be based n a vice crack.
Unfrtunately, ne day my cncern came true. It was abut tw mnths after the beginning f the term. On the day it happened everything was the same as always until 1 gt int the classrm. I nticed that we had a substitute teacher（代课老师） and immediately started thinking abut hw he wuld take attendance. My permanent teacher never had t, since he already knew each student, I panicked. S many thughts rushed thrugh my mind that I culdn't think straight. I calmed myself dwn by telling myself that I nly had t say ne wrd “Here”. “Easy enugh, right?” I thught s until my name was called. I did my rutine—cleared my thrat, tk a breath, and said, “Here. ” The nly prblem was that while saying this, I had the wrst vice crack in the histry f vice cracks.

Versin 1:
The whle class turned t lk at me. My face burned with embarrassment as I felt each pair f eyes fixed n me. The substitute teacher's puzzled expressin nly added t the awkward mment. I wished the grund wuld pen up and swallw me whle, but all I culd d was shift uncmfrtably in my seat. The whispers that fllwed were like knives t my self- esteem. When the bell finally rang fr the break, I rushed ut f the classrm, feeling utterly humiliated. It seemed like the whle schl nw knew abut my vice crack. （87 wrds）
“Yu knw, the vice prblem yu met in class is nrmal,” a classmate came t me and said. His reassuring wrds caught me ff guard. As he shared his wn similar experiences, I realized I wasn't alne in this struggle. Knwing that thers were ging thrugh the same thing made me feel seen and understd. His empathy sparked a sense f team spirit and supprt that I hadn't anticipated. Gradually, I let g f the fear f judgment and started t embrace my vice cracks as a natural part f grwing up. This newfund sense f cnfidence and self- acceptance transfrmed my interactins at schl, making me feel mre at ease and cnnected with my peers. （97 wrds）
Versin 2:
The whle class turned t lk at me. I felt my face turning red and wished the grund wuld pen up and swallw me whle. The embarrassment was unbearable, and I culdn't even bring myself t meet anyne's gaze. After what felt like an eternity, the substitute teacher finally spke up, breaking the awkward silence. He chuckled and said, “Well, that's quite a lvely yung vice!” The class laughed friendly alng with him, and I managed a weak smile, wndering whether they were just trying t make me feel better. Finally, the bell rang and I walked ut t have sme fresh air. （94 wrds）
“Yu knw, the vice prblem yu met in class is nrmal,” a classmate came t me and said. “Everyne ges thrugh it. It happens t mst f us during this stage f life.” He explained hw he had als experienced vice cracks and hw he had learned t embrace them as a natural part f grwing up. I lked at him in surprise, grateful fr his reassurance. My initial embarrassment and cncern gave way t gratitude and cnfidence. My classmates were understanding and supprtive, just as my friends had been frm the beginning. With their encuragement, I gradually became mre cnfident in using my vice, accepting the changes that came with puberty withut fear r shame. （98 wrds）
