9、VALS IN THE WORLDIf youre planning on hitting a cultural festival this year,make sure you check out the background information about some of them.BURNING MAN (NEVADA,USA)Burning Man started in 1986,when Larry Harvey and Jerry James built a 8-foot-tall wooden figure and dragged it to San Franciscos B

10、aker Beach.They lit it on fire and thus one of the worlds strangest,wildest parties was born.It takes place from the last Sunday in August to Labor Day,with an emphasis on freedom,creativity,and self-expression.CARNIVAL (RIO DE JANEIRO,BRAZIL)Arguably the biggest festival in the world,Brazils Carniv

11、al is widely considered “the greatest show on Earth”.The event takes place in February or March,attracting nearly 5 million people whore baking in the heat each year.There are annual samba competitions for the celebration,and the carnival parades are usually the stuff of legend.ICE & SNOW SCULPTURE

12、FESTIVAL (HARBIN,CHINA)Located in Northeast China,Harbin receives some seriously cold winter winds blowing over from Siberia.So why would any healthy person want to visit for this month-long Chinese festival,which officially starts on January 5th.Because its home to the largest ice sculptures in the

13、 world,and the celebration takes over the entire city.Activities in the area during the festival include touring ice lantern exhibitions and swimming in the rivers cold waters.KINGS DAY (AMSTERDAM,NETHERLANDS)The rest of the world could learn a thing or two from the Netherlands about properly celebr

17、 and happiness.Researchers have found that inadequate sleep and tiredness increase a persons risk of developing severe medical conditions,such as obesity,high blood sugar levels,and heart disease.Now,a new study has found that getting enough sleep is also the key to improving academic performance.Je

18、ffrey Gross,the university science professor who led the research,was not trying to find the relationship between sleep and grades when he handed out smart watches to the 100 students in his chemistry class.Instead,the professor hoped the wrist-worn devices,which track a persons physical activity,wo

19、uld show a connection between exercise and the academic achievement.While Grosss data showed no relationship between these two factors,the study found something surprising.As the researchers were analysing their data,they noticed that there was a straight-line relationship between the average amount

20、 of sleep students got and their results in the courses 11 quizzes,three midterm tests,and the final exam.Even more interesting,it was not enough for students to just head to bed early the night before a test.Instead,it was the sleep you got during the days when learning was happening that mattered

21、most.The time students went to bed each night was similarly important.Those who went to bed in early hours of the morning performed poorly,even if the total sleep time was the same as a higher-performing student.“When you go to bed matters,” Gross says,“If you go to bed at 10,or 12,or 1 at night,and

22、 sleep for seven hours,your performance is the same.But if you go to bed after 2,your performance starts to go down even if you get the same seven hours.So,quantity isnt everything.”Perhaps the most interesting was the huge effect that small differences in sleep patterns had on students grades.The e

23、ntire course grades for students averaging six and a half hours of sleep each night were 25% lower than students who averaged just one hour more sleep.Similarly,students who changed their bedtime by even one hour each night had grades that dropped 45% below those with more regular bedtime.24.Based o

27、health and happiness are important to student success in higher education but rarely get the attention they need.Colleges and universities in the United States have been seeing increases in mental illness among students for decades.Promoting student mental health and emotional happiness on campus re

28、quires more than a well-functioning counselling centre.It calls for a campus-wide commitment action plan.American undergraduate students have been reporting increasing rates of anxiety and depression for decades.In the 20182019 Healthy Minds Study(HMS) survey,40% of about 300,000 students at some 30

29、0 colleges and universities reported experiencing a mental health problem,and 60% said they were having difficulty accessing mental health care on campus or in the community.Other studies estimate that the dropout rate for US undergraduate students with mental health problems is over 40%,and that th

30、e popularity of mental health problems among graduate students is six times that of the general population.Most academic institutions provide some mental health services,often through a counselling centre.But no matter how good that centre is,it alone cannot solve the problems.An important early ste

31、p is for each institution to assess the extent of the crisis on its campus and whether there are enough treatment services either at the institution or in the local community.Another important question is whether there are elements of the institutions own environment or culture that contribute to th

32、e problems that students are experiencing,like unreasonable workloads or deadlines for assignments.Every college and university should carry out a comprehensive action plan to achieve this goal.This may require additional resources during a trying time for institutional budgets.But supporting all st

36、lectronic skin that can create a sense of touch.They hope their invention will give people with prosthetic(假体的) hands the ability to identify different objects.The skin device measures 1 square centimetre.The system contains 100 small sensors that attempt to recreate things like textures(质地),tempera

37、ture and even pain.The researchers call the device Asynchronous Coded Electronic Skin(ACES),which can process information faster than the humans nervous system,and is able to recognise 20 to 30 different textures.It can even correctly read Braille(布拉耶盲文) letters most of the time.The system does not

38、require the users movement to work.They just need to slide to feel textures.But in this case the skin,with just a single touch,is able to detect textures of different roughness.A demonstration showed that the device could identify the difference between a soft ball and a solid plastic one.“When you

39、lose your sense of touch,you essentially become numb and prosthetic users face that problem,” said Benjamin Tee,leader of the research team.“So by recreating an artificial version of the skin for their prosthetic devices,they can hold a hand and feel the warmth and feel that it is soft.” Tee said hi

40、s idea for the device came from a movie where a character loses his right hand and it is replaced with a robotic one.In the movie,the new hand is able to experience the touch sense just like the real one.The artificial skin technology is still going through experiments and development.But Tee said t

41、here had already been a lot of interest in the system,especially from the medical community.Tee said similar inventions that his team had developed included see-through skin that could repair itself when torn and a material for wearable electronic devices that gave off light.32.What can we learn abo

42、ut the artificial skin in paragraph 2?A.It is sensitive to high temperature.B.It reacts faster than our nervous system.C.It can recognise different objects.D.It helps the users memorise Braille letters.33.What can be inferred from Benjamin Tees words?A.The artificial skin feels like a real thing.B.P

43、eople with the artificial skin feel warm.C.People dont want to lose the sense of touch.D.He is sympathetic towards the prosthetic users.34.What inspired Benjamin Tee to create the artificial skin?A.The desire to help those in need.B.The life of the disabled.C.A dream of earning more money.D.A scene

44、from a movie.35.Which word can best describe the artificial skin technology?A.Profitable.B.Stable.C.Promising.D.Challenging.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Reduce Gift Wrap WasteWrapping paper may have “paper” in its name,but that doesnt automatically mean i
