People use laughter to connect and bond with others. It’s how we tell friends that we find their jokes funny, or how kids in a park show that they are having fun. Laughter is so important to humans, even if they belong to different cultures or speak different languages. What about animals Scientists are studying if there is a connection between animals’ laughing and playing.
Sasha Winkler, from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), studies biological anthropology (人类学)，including the study of animal behavior. She noticed that the small monkeys she worked with, liked to play together by chasing each other. While having fun together, they made panting (喘气) sounds, almost like they were out of breath, which reminded Winkler of their quiet laughter. This made Winkler wonder whether other animals did so while they were playing.
To find out whether other animals laugh and play, Winkler teamed up with another scientist named Greg Bryant, a professor and vice chair in the Department of Communication at UCLA. Together, they found and read dozens of reports written by other scientists who study animals. Winkler and Bryant looked for any mentions in any animal of sound signaling like the panting of the monkeys during their playing.
In April 2021, Winkler and Bryant published their findings in a science journal. Through their research, they identified 65 species or groups of animals, which laugh while playing. The animals that laugh the most include primates (灵长类) like monkeys and apes, rodents (啮齿动物) like rats, and mammals that live in the ocean like dolphins. Their work won’t only help us understand animals better but it could also help us understand how humans develop or change over time. Next, they will carry on more study to find more.
24. What is the function of paragraph 1

Summer is quickly passing by—but not without the ultimate meteor （ 流星） shower event!
The 2021 Perseids Meteor Shower, which is considered to be the best meteor shower of the year, is expected to start lighting up skies on this Wednesday, according to NASA. Known for fireballs, the Perseids typically light up skies on warm summer nights, leaving “long wake （尾迹） of light and color behind them.”
Under ideal conditions, sky watchers may see approximately 50- 100 meteors per hour with each meteor traveling at 37 miles per second. .
Because the meteors appear in all parts of the sky, it will be pretty easy to witness the celestial （天上的） event from anywhere in the world. To get the best show, it is advised to view the Perseids from the Northern Hemisphere （半球） during the pre- dawn hours, ideally between 2 a.m. and dawn. In some cases, sky gazers may be able to see meteors during this shower as early as 9 or 10 p. m.
“If it's not cloudy, pick an observing spot away from bright lights, lie on your back, and look up! You don't need any special equipment to view the Perseids—just your eyes,” NASA wrote on their site, adding that telescopes or binoculars are not recommended due to their small fields of view.
Remember to let your eyes become adjusted to the dark. Try to stay off of your phone too, as looking at devices with bright screens will negatively affect your night vision and thus reduce the number of meteors you see!
For those who may be unable to view the Perseids in person, a live broadcast will be streaming from NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, starting around 8 p. m. on Aug. 11 and continuing through sunrise on Aug. 12.
28. What can we learn about the Perseids Meteor Shower
A. It will be the best meteor shower in history.
B. The ultimate shower only happens on this Wednesday.
C. We can observe 50- 100 meteors per hour in any place.
D. The Meteors usually have long and bright trails behind them.
29. Which of the following may be the best time to view the shower
A. At 4 a. m. on the Northern Hemisphere.
B At 2 p. m. on the Northern Hemisphere.
C. At sunrise on the Southern Hemisphere.
D. At dawn on the Southern Hemisphere.
30. What can be inferred about the observation of Meteors
A. If you use a telescope, you will see more meteors.
B. You can use smartphones to record the grand scene.
C. The brighter the moon is, the more meteors you can see. .
D. Bright lights will reduce the visibility of meteors.
31. If you are not available to watch the Perseids personally, you can ________.
A. browse the unofficial website of NASA
B. watch a video recorded by a flight center
C stream a live show on Aug. 11 night
D. use special devices to connect with the shower
D
A group of digital models dressed in sports outfits strutted down the runway in an online virtual fashion show during China Fashion Week in September. Led by Xijiajia, tech company Baidu Inc’s virtual spokesperson, they presented the latest clothes by homegrown sportswear maker Anta Sports in different virtual scenarios (场景)-stadiums, snowfields, the Gobi Desert and even outer space.
Li Shiyan, head of Baidu’s digital human and robotics section, said that technologies, the production cost of virtual clothing has been reduced dramatically, and production periods shortened from more than one month to just a week.
“The virtual human industry is still in an early stage, and there are some challenges, such as how to produce low-cost digital assets and digital content, and how to make digital humans interact with real people more naturally, “Li said.
The size of China’s virtual human market is forecast to reach 270 billion yuan by 2030. According to experts, the fashion landscape is rapidly expanding its virtual horizon to prepare for a future populated by digital avatars, and the most accessible way for fashion brands to engage with virtual replicas is by dressing them in their latest collections.
“Holding virtual fashion shows doesn’t just mean moving real-world shows online. More importantly, we can use digital space to expand our understanding of fashion and imagination for what is possible,“ said Chen Duan. For example, people can make use of textures that do not exist in the physical world, and digital humans are able to go beyond the biological limits of real humans and present new fashion styles in new ways.
“Digital humans are increasingly being used in brand promotion, advertisement, livestreaming, gaming and entertainment,” said Zhu Xiaowen, an analyst. However, she added that a new set of problems have also emerged, such as personal privacy protection and data security. She said unregulated use of digital humans might open a way for fraud, given that digital humans can be difficult to distinguish from real people.
32. Why does the author describe a virtual fashion show in Paragraph 1
A. to stress Baidu’s technological development.
B to introduce the use of digital fashion avatars.
C. to make ads for sportswear maker Anta Sports.
D. to describe the work of some digital models.
33. What is one of the challenges of the virtual human industry
A. Digital humans fail to react with real people.
B. The virtual human market isn’t clear.
C. Producing digital contents costs more.
D. Virtual beings aren’t widely accepted.
34. What does Chen Duan think of virtual fashion shows
A. They apply digital technology in daily life.
B They enrich people’s understanding of humans.
C. They will replace real-world shows.
D They explore more possibilities for fashion.
35. What does Zhu Xiaowen stress about digital humans
A. the potential harm they do.
B. their bright future in the fashion world.
C. the need of their personal privacy.
D. their betraying to real people.

The sea was shining across the horizon as my husband, Michael, and I looked out over the rocky cliff（悬崖） of Gleesons Landing in Yorke Peninsula. "Careful Abby doesn't fall down the rocks here," Michael warned as he pulled out his fishing rod（鱼竿）. Abby was our two-year-old rescue dog（搜救犬）we'd adopted one year earlier.
Leaving Michael to his fishing, Abby and I wandered off. We'd been walking for a while when we saw a small path that led down the side of the cliff towards the beach. Abby raced off and as I followed, my leg caught on a rock and I fell down the cliff. Landing three meters down, my left leg cracked violently. Shocked, I tried to keep myself calm. I couldn't feel any pain but when I tried to get up, my body just fell back down. "Go and get Daddy," I signaled to Abby as she paced nervously beside me. At first she refused to leave my side. But somehow she realized I needed her and raced off.
Alone and staring out to sea, my world faded to black. Staying awake some time later, I discovered Abby hadn't returned. Suddenly, I heard movement coming from above. "Sue " Michael called out. Relief flooded through me as I looked up and saw Michael and Abby. "I think I broke my leg," I shouted back. "I'll go get help," he promised. "If I try to reach you myself, they'll be rescuing two of us."
Faint and tired, I held on to consciousness. Abbey came down to me and kept me company until the rescuers arrived. They carried me on a stretcher（担架） to a helicopter, where I was flown to hospital in Adelaide while Michael and Abby drove.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

At the hospital, the pain caused by the fall finally hit me.

At the hospital, the pain caused by the fall finally hit me. A crowd of doctors surrounded me and told my husband what was wrong. It turned out my left foot and leg was broken and my left ankle was dislocated. It was so painful and I dared not move at all. Doctors put my ankle back into place and did everything they could to save me. Back to life, I wondered how Michael found me and asked if it was Abby that showed him. Michael told me about Abby’s heroic efforts.
“She led me to the exact spot where you were,” Michael explained. I listened in awe. I never thought our precious dog had walked such a long distance until she reached Michael and guided him to find me. There was no doubt about it—Abby had saved my life. Now my leg is fully healed and Abby still looks after me. She follows me everywhere I go. When Michael and I adopted a rescue dog, we thought we were helping her. But Abby ended up saving me.
