W：Aaron, do you know anything about Chinese martial arts
M：Absolutely! There’s so much diversity in Chinese martial arts.
W：Yeah. I love tai chi best for its graceful movements and health benefits.（14）How about you
M：It’s hard to pick just one. I love Shaolin kung fu. And I’m into Wing Chun. The focus on close-range combat and efficiency is impressive. Besides, drunken boxing is also attractive. The appeal lies in its uniquely entertaining effects.（15）
W：I see you really like Chinese martial arts. So how do you view the importance of Chinese martial arts （16）
M：Well, apart from self-defense, they are deeply rooted in Chinese culture, promoting discipline and respect.
W：Yeah, and they also reflect Chinese philosophy. The yin-yang concept is evident in the balance between offense and defense.
（Wing Chun：咏春拳，是一门中国传统武术，是一个积极、精简的正当防卫的拳术。较其他中国传统武术，咏春拳更专注于尽快制服对手，以此将当事人的损害降至最低。drunken boxing：醉拳，是模仿醉汉动作的一种传统拳术。这种拳打起来很像是醉汉酒后跌跌撞撞、摇摇摆摆的样子，但实际上是形醉意不醉。醉拳是由严格的武术手法、步法、身法等组成的套路，既有实用价值，又有很高的艺术性。）

W：I’m really glad to see so many people signed up for this training course. With graduation coming up soon, I know that many of you are preparing to enter the workforce for the first time. (17) Job interviews can be an enormously stressful experience, but like most things, interviewing is a skill, not a talent, and a little practice is really important. (18)
I know many of you feel nervous just at the thought of being interviewed, but you need to remember that you’ve been invited for an interview because your potential employers think you’d be suitable for the job. So, first, be confident in yourself. (19) Next, be prepared and professional, which will help you make a strong first impression.
Before an interview, you’d better review your résumé and application. (20). You’ll be needing that later. Once your résumé is solid, then you can start preparing for possible interview questions. I’m going to hand out a list of those questions now. You need to think about how you’d answer each of them. Don’t bother making notes — you can’t bring notes to an interview. OK, that’s all, does anyone have any questions for me

In March，5－year－old Wynn Radke of Minnesota came home from preschool with no idea that she wouldn’t return for months because of COVID－19.Once the realization and boredom set in，her mom Colleen challenged her to think of a goal to work toward that involved an outdoor activity. Wynn wasted no time and shouted，“67 waterfalls！” While the number was random，her mom loved the idea so much that she agreed to help the little one on her quest.
The lovely pair’s first adventure took place on March 28，2020 at Fairy Falls，and it was amazing! From there，they continued hiking to different waterfalls，documenting their progress as they inched closer and closer to their goal. Both Colleen and Wynn took their quest seriously. In fact，they traveled all over Minnesota and into Wisconsin to track down new locations，even camping overnight to reach some places. Originally，Colleen said the challenge was simply a way to get Wynn outside instead of just watching YouTube all day.
But it ended up being something therapeutic for them to do during the struggles 2020 has brought to their family. Between Wynn missing her friends and Colleen losing her job，the waterfall visits have helped a lot. “I think it kept both of our minds off it，” Colleen added. “She could feel my stress during everything. I also think that it helped protect her from all the craziness going on. In addition，it was just a really fun time for the two of us to bond and grow and heal together.”
It took Wynn and Colleen five months，but they finally reached Winnewissa Falls—their 67th waterfall—in August. Upon reaching her goal，Wynn announced，“I did it！”And she wasn’t the only one who was delirious. When she returned to school，her friends and teachers welcomed her with celebratory balloons. For her wonderful mom，the adventure was less about the milestones and more about the time they spent together. “We had so much fun doing us，being us，and camping，” she said.
24.Why did Wynn and Colleen decide to have the adventure
A.To do something meaningful.

A.It brought the joy of success.
B.It was a milestone in her life.

Choosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it，researchers at the University of Texas discovered. Their findings suggest that in order to forget an unwanted experience，more attention should be focused on it.
“Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to forget something out of our own free will，but how our brains do that is still being questioned. Once we can figure out how memories are weakened and think out ways to control this，we can design treatment to help people rid themselves of unwanted memories，” said Jarrod Lewis－Peacock，the study’s senior author.
Memories are dynamic constructions of the brain that regularly get updated, adjusted and reorganized through experience. The brain is constantly remembering and forgetting information，and much of this happens automatically during sleep.
Their findings not only confirmed that humans have the ability to control what they forget，but also that successful intentional forgetting requires more activity than what is required to remember.
“A proper level of brain activity is important to this forgetting mechanism. Too strong，and it will strengthen the memory; too weak，and you won’t change it，” said Tracy Wang，lead author of the study. “Importantly，it’s the intention to forget that increases the activation of the memory，and when this activation hits the sweet spot at the appropriate level，that’s when it leads to later forgetting of that experience.”
The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces. “We’re learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information，and it will take a lot of further research before we understand how to use our ability to forget，” said Lewis－Peacock. “Hopefully，we can find out how we process and get rid of those really strong，sticky emotional memories，which can have a powerful effect on our health and well－being.”
28.What remains a puzzle to researchers
A.How our memories can be strengthened.
B.How our brains voluntarily forget something.
C.What effect unwanted memories have on our brains.
D.Whether our brains can voluntarily forget something.
29.Which of the following can best describe memories
A.Active. B.Lasting.
C.Casual. D.Ridiculous.
30.What can we learn from the text
A.It requires less attention to forget than to remember.
B.The more active the brain is，the faster it forgets.
C.Humans can’t keep memories under control.
D.Humans forget faces less easily than scenes.
31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.What it takes to forget an unwanted experience
B.Strong memories have a great influence on health
C.Forgetting uses more brain power than remembering
D.How to train our brains to voluntarily forget something

Danish architecture studio Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) has designed Terminus AI City Operating System as a campus in Chongqing, China, which will be operated by an artificial intelligence system. Everything in the city will be operated by this system.
BIG has drawn up the plans for Terminus Group，which will have its headquarters at the centre of the AI－run city campus.
The development will be located in Chongqing Hi－Tech Industrial Development Zone and will include Cloud Valley, the campus－style headquarters of Terminus Group. “We have over the recent years worked with several of the world’s leading technology companies.We are thrilled to bring our experience to Chongqing，”said Bjarke Ingels, founder of BIG. “Cloud Valley is imagined as a city where people, technology and nature live together in harmony with spaces designed for all types of life: human life, animal life, plant life and even artificial life.”
BIG’s design for Cloud Valley is intended to demonstrate the environmental goals of the project.Green roof panels will create open－air courtyards throughout the campus. These courtyards will host art exhibitions and sports events. At night, the underside of the roof panels will be transformed into what BIG describes as “the largest digital display in China”.
In the AI City, people will live in homes with self－adjusting solar panels and have a digital assistant to run their lives. Buildings will have power systems controlled by Terminus Group software.
“As sunlight hits the houses, bedroom windows become transparent to allow the natural light to wake sleepy residents，” said Terminus Group. “Once the light has filled the room, an AI housekeeper selects your breakfast, matches your outfit with the weather, and presents a full schedule of your day using Terminus Group’s smart transportation solution.”
The AI City will have e－bikes and self－driving cars to cut down on traffic jams.
32.What is Cloud Valley according to Bjarke Ingels
A.A smart city with all life in harmony.

Why we forget
Remembering things is an important function of our brain—if we can’t recall how to do something, we can’t survive. If you think about it, there is so much we have to remember—from where we leave our car keys to how we walk.__36__
Memory allows the brain to store and recall information when required. Our short－term memory can hold a small amount of information for a short time，while our long－term memory can hold an unlimited amount of information for a long time. Our memory is amazing, but why do we still forget things
It maybe because we are in a rush or we consider it irrelevant at the time. When we do store information, we often make connections with other things, which helps us recall it later. __37__ It is also possible that memories decline over time. If you don’t perform a task for a long period of time, it can be difficult to recall how to do it. This could be because our memory is full, or that our short－term memory is easier to access.
__38__ Have you ever gone into a room to fetch something only to forget what you wanted when you got there This is called “The Doorway Effect”. This occurs because we change both the physical and mental environments, moving to a different room and thinking about many different things.
So, if you have a mind like a sieve(筛子)，it could be because you have too much on your mind. But we do need to keep our memory sharp by continually using it.__39__ That’s when we’re at more risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease.
However, forgetting is not always a bad thing! It would waste cognitive resources if we remembered every detail of the world around us.__40__
A.That’s something worth remembering!
B. Maybe it’s no surprise that sometimes we are forgetful.
C.But sometimes even our short－term memory can let us down.
D.If you don’t have these connections, then it can be easier to forget.
E.However, it is widely recognized that short－term memory can be improved.
F.We also need some mental relaxation such as listening to some classical music.
G.Beyond our 50s, our brains tend to shrink in volume and our memory begins to decline.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Kathy’s family vacation to the beach was usually the highlight of her summer. This year, however, her parents announced a new rule: no cell phones for the entire week.
“But my friends will be expecting updates about the trip，” Kathy complained. Kathy’s mom gave her a serious look. Unwillingly, Kathy handed her cell phones over and her mom locked it away.
The drive to the beach house took most of the day.As they turned off the highway onto country roads, the clouds darkened. Rain started to pour. “Even more beautiful in the rain，” her mother said. “What do you think, Kathy？” Kathy glared at her mom. “Beautiful，”she muttered.
That night after dinner, Kathy wandered into the kitchen, where her father was washing dishes. She gave her father a loving look and said in her sweetest voice，“Couldn’t I have my cell phones back, just for one second Just so I can tell everyone what an amazing time I’m having？”
“Can’t，” he said, “it’s not here. Remember？” Kathy was very annoyed. Having nothing better to do，she examined the dusty bookcase in the living room. The books looked as dull as the weather. On the top shelf，however, she spotted a puzzle. She took it, emptied the pieces on the table, and began to sort them.
After what seemed like a few minutes, she looked up. It was past ten o’clock. She had been working for almost two hours! She yawned. The puzzle was not half done, but she was exhausted. So, she went to bed.
When Kathy awoke the next morning, she jumped out of bed and drew the curtains. A blazing sun was rising over the blue ocean. The sky was cloudless. The scene reminded Kathy of a photo that her friend Betty had recently sent her.
This view was even better. It would leave everyone speechless. Kathy dashed to her bedside table and reached for her cell phones. But there was nothing there.She sighed. Still, she wandered in front of the window，admiring the sunrise.
